HT4113 passcode not recognised despite entering correctly

I updated my i pad to iOS5 and chose the same passcode as the one I was using before updating, when I was prompted. Now when I am trying to use teh passcode I get the message 'wrong passcode' and after 3 failed attempts the i pad keeps getting locked out. I have synchronised it to my computer. Should I try to restore it to factory setting after backing up data and try again? Any suggestion will be most welcome

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.

ICloud Keychain setup failing despite entering correct verification code

I just installed Yosemite and I'm having trouble setting up iCloud keychain. I've done this about 7 times now and its not working. I go to set up iCloud Keycain (in iCoud prefs pane) i enter my Apple account password, then my 4 digit pin code, then i get an sms with verification code, i enter it in the dialog and it says the code is incorrect and now I've entered it too many times so now it says I must verify through Apple support. It was the same thing when I tried setting it up during Yosemite installation.
Anyone else having this problem?

HT201269 Backup from iCloud incomplete and passcode not recognised

I've just purchased an iPhone 5c, I have a message on the phone saying the restore from iCloud couldn't download some items and the phone now won't accept my pass code. When restoring from iCloud via iTunes I also clicked on downloading the latest version at the same time which I'm beginning to suspect has caused the issue. Can anyone advise how I can get in to my phone and also complete the restore?
Thanks.

Hi! I am having the same problem. What's odd is that a few days ago- the ipad was connecting to the network fine. No changes made. Other devices can connect to this network. I have also been able to connect my ipad to other networks.
I have reset all network settings, reset my ipad, reset the router, hard stop reboot, turn on/off wifi connection. what's interesting is that when i click the arrow next to the network i am trying to log onto- the ip address, router, and dns numbers come up automatically and the router number does not fill in (also- this process takes a long time- at least 5 minutes).
any thoughts?

My wife has just had a new iPad and while Wifi works fine with it at home, at work it will not connect to the Wifi despite the correct password being entered. The 'waiting wheel' simply goes round and round next to the Wifi network attempting connection.

My wife has just had a new iPad and while the Wifi works fine at home, at work she is unable to connect after entering the correct password etc. The 'waiting wheel' simply spins next to the network attempting to connect. The iPad version is 5.1.1 and not the IOS 6 which seems to be problematic on the Wifi front. To add to the mystery my own iPad connects fine to my wife's place of work. Is it possible to take the manual settings from mine and connect that way? Or any other suggestions?

When your device is trying to connect to the work Wi-Fi network, go to Settings > Wi-Fi > then tap on the name of the Netowrk that she is having trouble with. Then tap on forget this network. Let the device attempt to connect again and make absolutely sure she is trying to connect to the work network and not a nearby network, then make absolutely sure the password is entered correctly.

I used to have an RSS feed to a blog site which is protected by a username and password rembered by Firefox. I am now asked for those details when trying to enter the blog and despite entering them correctly I am denied entry.

My old server (5.5. years) was failing me and loosing some random items. I have accessed this blog site for the past three years and during that period the access passwords and user names have been changed several times. Each time I asked Firefox to remember the correct details and I gained entry with no problems. Before I replaced the equipment I was continually refused entry despite entering all the correct information. I received a message telling me that I was either not entering the correct information (which according to the Blog editor I was) or that my server did not know how to connect to the RSS feed.

‘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.

Following updating OS7 I setup a passcode which is not recognised and my ipad is disabled, I tried to restore in itunes but wants me to turn find my ipad off in icloud, which I can't do as ipad is disabled. who do i reset or get back in???

Following updating my ipad2 to OS7 it asked for a passcode which I entered, when I turned the ipad off it requested the passcode but does not recognise the one I (thought) entered , the ipad is disabled. I tried to restore in itunes but wanted me to turn find my ipad off, as I can't get into the ipad i can't do this. Any suggestions as to how I can fix this?

For any of you with a similar problem, apple was able to help, you need to keep the round quite button press in while you connect your cable (which is it self connected to pc itunes) the ipad will then restore. hope this helps

Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
          •          Server name: imap.mail.me.com
          •          SSL Required: Yes
          •          Port: 993
          •          Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
          •          Password: Your iCloud password
SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
          •          Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
          •          SSL Required: Yes
          •          Port: 587
          •          SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
          •          Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
          •          Password: Your iCloud password
Also, you must upgrade your password to meet the new criteria: 8 characters, including upper and lower case and numbers. If you have an older password that does not meet these criteria, when you try to setup mail on your mac, using all of the IMAP criteria listed above, it will still give a server error message. Go to   http://appleid.apple.com         then follow directions to change your password, then go back to setting up your mail using the IMAP instructions above.

HT5312 I changed my email address and apple is ok wih it but iCloud still has my old email address and is not recognising either my original password or my new password. How can I get my iCloud account email address corrected and also get my new password

Hi
I changed email addresses but iCloud sill has my previous address registered. It also is not recognising either my original password or my new password. How can I get my new email address into the iCloud system, and also lodge a new password with them?
I'm using an ipad and all else is ok but not icloud.

Welcome to the Apple community Ross.
If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID and that ID is a previous version of your current ID, not an entirely different one.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details and some other circumstances.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device. It may take a short while to remove the account.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

My touch shows the connect to itunes with usb on screen however when i try to do so it says it cannot connect because it is locked with a passcode. It will not let me enter the code on the ipod or computer. so i cant do anything. Any ideas?

Connect the iPod touch to your iTunes library in Recovery Mode and restore it to factory setting. See this article for instructions on getting your device into Recovery Mode.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
