  • My daughter put a password on her ipad and now the ipad is locked and disabled. how do i unlock it or reset the ipad?

    My daughter put a password on her Ipad2 and forgot her password. She entered the password wrong 10 times and now her Ipad says that it's locked and disabled. How can I reset or unlock her IPad2?
    thank you

    You cant reset the password. You will have to restore the device within iTunes and you will want to use the same computer that you sync with if you want to restore all of the app data and app settings.
    This article will explain how to restore the iPad.

    Howver, you will probably need recovery mode in order to bypass the passcode. You can read about it here.

  • HT201263 So my ex put a password on my iPad and I am now on my second attempt to try and restore my device and last attempt at the end it said there was a message saying something about a passcode i needed to disable. I just want to wipe my whole IPad cle

    So my ex decided to take it upon himself and set up my IPad and put passcodes all over the place as well as using his apple id to put things on my Ipad. Now that we are broke up I am trying to get into my Ipad and use it and can not. I have tried to restore it and wipe it clean to start ovwer but at the end of the process i get a msg stating that there is a passcode of somesort that i need to disable. What can I do to start over and clear everything?

    Nope - you cannot restore a backup from a newer iOS version on to a device running an older iOS version.  The reverse works, but in your case to use your backup, you must update to iOS 7.0.3 - no other option if you want to use that backup.

  • My friend put a password on my ipod and i cant get in how can i take it off?

    My friend put a password on my Ipod and I dont want to restore it but want the password off.  He wont tell me what he put it as and has probly forgot by now.  I am wondering how to take it off.  I am running an I touch software Ver 4.2.1.  I can get anywhere on it and know my way around my apple products well but cant seem to find out what to do on this problem.  Please help.

    If you were able to remove a pascode - what good would using a passcode do? None - that's what good it would do. You cannot remove a forgotten passcode.
    You have to restore the device within iTunes. You want to use the same computer that you always sync with so that you can restore your app data and settings. You can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the iPad/iPod.
    I assume that the concept is the same on the 2nd gen iPod.
    iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    This will tell you how to restore
    iTunes: Backing up, updating or restoring iOS software
    If you cannot restore that way, you may have to use recovery mode
    iPad: Unable to update or restore

  • My daughter has put a password on her computer and has forgotten her number

    my daughter has put a password on her ipod and forgotten to write it down and now she cannot get on does anyone know how to rectify this thank you steven barker

    Two options - plug it into the computer it was last sync'd with and restore from a backup.  If no backup, you will have to restore as new and start all over.

  • I forgot the password on my ipad and i didnt sign into icloud or find my iphone and i connected my ipad to itunes but it doesnt let me restore my ipad as it does not connect to the apple software what should i do?

    I forgot my password to my iPad and it said to connect to iTunes so I did. I went on Apple support to try and find a way to restore my iPad. The options given were to either sign into iCloud of Find my iPhone and restore it, but it wouldn't work because I didn't download the Find my iPhone app and I wasn't signed into iCloud. My other option was to connect to iTunes and restore it so I tried many times but it keeps saying that the apple software cannot be connected. I used Apple support once again to see if i can sort out the problem but nothing seems to work. Is there anything else that I can do to restore it??   

    Try this:
    1. Turn off iPad. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, slide to turn off.
    2. Connect USB cable to computer
    3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
    5. Release the Home button
    6. Open iTune (make sure you have the newest version of iTune)
    7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
    8. Use iTune to restore iPad
    Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad

  • Question: How do I get music files off a thumb drive into iTunes so I can put the music on my iPad and iphone

    Question: How do I get music files off a thumb drive into iTunes so I can put the music on my iPad and iphone

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Just drag them to your open iTunes window.

  • I'm trying to reset my password on the iPad and apple says it has sent me an email, but I don't receive it, even though the address is good.

    I somehow seem to have changed the Apple id password on my iPad and don't know what it is.  When I try to reset it, I'm given the option of having Apple get in touch with me by email.  I click on this choice and Apple says the email has been sent - but I never receive it, even though the address is valid.  The other option is to answer two questions preceded by entering my birthdate.  I know the answers to the questions, but must have entered my birthdate incorrectly when I set up the account.  To make a long story short, I can't sign in to iCloud on the iPad and can't figure a way out of this dilemma.

    Your password was sent to your emergency email address.  Perhaps you have an email you never use?   I use the free email from my cable TV account as my emergency email.
    Your Apple account and cloud account are separate.   You could even have completely different user and password.   Most of us use the same user ID and password, but they are not the same thing, don't mix them up.
    If you can't retrieve emergency email, you will have to call apple support.

  • HT5569 Is there a way to store a wi-fi password on an iPad and then copy and paste it into the proper space when you want to connect to your password protected network?  (the password is 31 random characters)

    Is there a way to store a wi-fi password on an ipad and then copy and paste it into the proper space when you want to connect to your password proctected newwor?  (the password is 31 random characters)

    Yes, if both the Mac and iPad are setup using the same iCloud account, then any notes you enter on the Mac will be synced across to the iPad almost instantly.
    Same occurs with the 1Password app I mentioned. If you have both the Mac and iPad versions of it, and setup either iCloud or Dropbox syncing, any passwords entered on the Mac will be synced to the app running on the iPad ready for copying and pasting. This would be the most secure method, but not the cheapest.

  • I forget the password on my ipad and it is locked and disabled how can i recover the password or unlock the i pad ?

    i forget my password on my ipad and now could not open it. As it is disabled now. How can i reopen it ?

    "If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). 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."  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
