You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.
Also, see iTunes- Restoring iOS software.

    i dont know my passcode and i need to get into my ipod

    Hello calebwhite50
    You would need to put your iPod touch into recovery mode and then use iTunes to restore it. Once the restore is complete and you have a backup, within iTunes or iCloud, you can put that back up back on without the passcode coming back.
    iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode

    Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to shut down.
    While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
    iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.

  • How do you unlock a phone when you dont know the password?

    how do you unlock a phone when you dont know the password?

    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.

  • HT4113 I need to unlock an ipad -- but do not know the passcode, please help

    I need to unlock my son's ipad -- one of his friends has set a passcode but I do not know what it is.
    Itunes won't connect to the ipad without the passcode, please help

    If you can't get his friend to remove it, then you will need to connect the iPad to the computer that you normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the iPad and re-sync your content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808

    You can't. Type in the wrong password until, it says "Connect to iTunes". Then connect it to iTunes. You will wait 1 minute, five minutes, 15 minutes, then 60 minutes, then you can connect it to iTunes.

  • I bought two films on my ipod tough 4g ( normally comes up on my ipad if i have bought something on my ipod) but i dont know how to get the two films on my ipad without paying for them.

    I bought two films on my ipod tough 4g ( normally comes up on my ipad if i have bought something on my ipod) but i dont know how to get the two films on my ipad without paying for them.

    Movies work differant than TV shows, music and apps. With movies, to get them from one device such as an iPod Touch to an iPad, you would need to connect the Touch to your computer first and in iTunes under the file menu, hit transfer purchases. Next connect the iPad and you can sync the movie to the iPad.
    While the iPad is connected to the computer, in iTunes, click on the iPad in the left pane and when the screen loads, click movies and from there, you can select the movie that you want to sync.

    You need the previous owner to unlock it, unless they do you have a brick there is no other way .
    iPhone was probably stolen if you purchased on eBay, claim and get your money back

  • I found an iphone 4 and tried to bypass the passcode but as i moved on to try and use this iphone, it says that i have to contact the owner to give me the apple id and password but i dont know the owner

    i have got an apple iphone 4 and want to use it...it says that i need to contact the owner of the iphone to give me the apple id and the password, but i dont know the owner because i found this iphone.....can you help me unlock this iphone ??

    It doesn't belong to you. Turn it over to the police. You can't bypass the activation lock. It's doing exactly what it's designed to do, which is to prevent scum like you from using a lost or stolen phone.
