HT2731 how can i unlock my pass code

how do i unlock my passcode

Passcode for what ? If you've forgotten the passcode to unlock/open one of your devices then you will need to connect it to the computer that you normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the device and re-sync your content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the device into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If you do it via a different computer then :
If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.

    My Ipad mini is disabled

    Try this first - I saw a recent post where a user with the same problem after an iOS update used his Apple ID password.
    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.

    You may have to do this several times.
    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom

    Your only choice is to place the phone in DFU mode (search Google for instructions) and restore as a new device.  You will lose all your data.

  • How  Can I unlock the restriction code on my ipad

    Hello I am trying to unlock the restriction code on my ipad but can't cuz I forgot the passcode

    You can't unlock the restriction code.
    You have to restore your iPad  as a new device and not from a backup.The backup will only load the forgotten passcode onto the device again. You will have to load all of your content onto the device so make sure that you have all content in iTunes as well - transfer purchases to iTunes on your computer.

    I don't want to have to enter a pass code to use my phone but one is entered . How can I remove it ?  Thank you

    There is really no need for you to be so sarcastic to the person asking the question (or any person for that matter). Why are you here if not to help someone with a question?  That was just uncalled for.

  • How can I retrieve my pass code for restrictions?

    For the life of me I can't seem to recall the four digit pass code I used when I go to restrictions. I have tried several attempts but none work. Is there a way to retrieve that information?

    There is no recovering forgotten passwords.
    You want access to restrictions, restore the iPad.
