my daughter has locked herself out from her ipod and cant remember her new password .how do i reset this

Restore, if iTunes will let you. Everything except the password will be restored. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. Be forewarned that it takes a long time. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

I have forgotten the iPod password.

I have forgotten the iPod password. How do I start over so I can use it with iTunes?

Hello Larry
What you would need to do is put your iPod nano into Disk Mode and then plug it in to your computer to then restore it in iTunes. Check out the article below for the steps to do that.

HT4113 forgotten my iphone password....how do i reset it?

forgotten my iphone password....how do i reset it?

Connect in recovery mode and restore, you'll get the option to reset the passcode during this process:
iOS: Unable to update or restore and iPhone and iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
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. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.

Connect the iOS device to your computer and restore via iTunes. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

I turned my 5s phone off and when I turned it back on it seems to have lost my pass code and won't unlock . How do you reset the pass code

I have a 5S it lost my passcode when I turned it off for about 10 minutes.Phone is now locked
How do I reset the passcode?

Hello Lynncooper,
It sounds like your passcode is not working for some reason to unlock your phone. This article should help you get back into your device:
iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
If you have previously synced your device with iTunes, you may be able to reset the passcode by restoring the device:
Connect the device to the computer with which you normally sync and open iTunes.
Note: If iTunes asks you to enter the passcode, try another computer that you have synced with. Otherwise, go to "If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer" section below.
If the device is still disabled, or if iTunes does not automatically sync your device, sync the device with iTunes.
When the backup and sync is complete, restore your device.
When iOS Setup Assistant asks to set up your device, choose "Restore from iTunes backup".
Select your device in iTunes and choose the most recent backup of your device.
If you have not synced to your iTunes library, follow the steps in the section labeled:
If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Forgotten the login password at start-up. OS X Lion.

I have been a Mac owner since 1986 but have never encounter this problem.
My father who is 91 purchased an iMac in January used it once. He is now just setting it up again after he has recently moved and this will be his only computer… finally getting rid of the PC world of Bill Gates and into a real computer. However, he has forgotten the login password at start-up which was set-up at the Apple Store.
Can I reboot the machine with a CD (have one for Snow Leopard) and change administration details this way even though is running OS X Lion?
Thanks for your help in advance as for my 8 Macs in my own business (design company) I don't use login ids at machine start-up for my employees.

Thank you Frank. This looks like an easy and straightforward fix.
However, I won't know until Sunday as my father lives in Toronto (I am 2 hours away), so will have to wait until I his Mac up and running. Then back into the world of the internet, email, Skype and all that good stuff for him.

I have forgotten the root password

I have forgotten the root pasword on my powerbook, how do I reset it?

Well, likely any PB could install 10.5.x, but whehter a newer more worthless, more demanding OSX would help is your decision...
Leopard requirements/10.5.x...
    * Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5, or PowerPC G4 (867MHz or faster) processor
minimum system requirements
    * 512MB of memory (I say 1.5GB for PPC at least, 2-3GB minimum for IntelMacs)
    * DVD drive for installation
    * 9GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
Trouble is appl no longer sells it, you have to search eBay & such for the full retail version, not any grey Install Disc.
There are workarounds if the 867MHz is the only hangup...

HT4113 How do I unlock my sons ipod touch as he has forgotten the password!

My son has forgotten his passcode, how do you reset please?
Tried the on/off button with round button hold for ten seconds, no joy....

On/Off turning doesn't solve this Issue.
The only way for that is a forced restore (that means a restore and will delete all data from die iPod).
1. Turn the iPod Off
2. Put the USB cable in ur PC (direct not in a HUB)
3. Press the Home Button
4. Put the USB cable in the iPod (still pressing the Home button)
5. Now the iPod should appear in iTunes > make a restore
Yes the complete data on the iPod will be deleted, no there is no other way as long as nobody knows the password.

I was trying to update my ipod to iOs 5 but I have forgotten the backup password

I was trying to update my ipod to iOs 5 but I have forgotten the backup password help please?

You need to restore your iPod to factory defaults/new iPod. That is the only choise.
Warning: If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and then forget your password, you will not be able to restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable. If you forget the password, you can continue to back up and use the device, however you will not be able to restore the encrypted backup to any device without the password. You do not need to enter the password for your backup each time you back up or sync.
If you cannot remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore, choose set up as a new device.
