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.

  • HT1316 if i dont know what my sim passcode is how do i unlock it?

    if i dont know what my sim passcode is how do i unlock it?

    The SIM passcode or the lock screen passcode? 
    If you mean the lockscreen passcode, you'll have to restore the phone from the last backup.
    If you mean an actual SIM passcode, you'll have to contact your carrier.

  • What do I do if I don't know what my restriction passcode is ?

    what do I do if I don't know what my restriction passcode is ?

    To remove it you will have to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings and then restore from a backup that predates the addition of the restrictions passcode.  Or redownload all of your apps and music content.

  • I know exactly what my restrictions passcode is meant to be (I have even written it down) but it has strangely changed itself. I cannot delete apps anymore.

    I know exactly what my restrictions passcode is meant to be (I have even written it down) but it has strangely changed itself. I cannot delete apps anymore and it has been getting on my nerves. I am worried that I will lose my purchased films and books and my pages documents if I perform a factory restore. What do I do?

    To remove the Restrictions passcode you will need to either...
    Restore the Device as New...
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
    OR...
    from a Backup created Before the Restrictions Code was set....
    Restore from Backup

    You should be able to remove the passcode by restoring the device. Do the following:
    1. Connect the device to the computer to which you normally sync;
    2. Open iTunes (Note: If iTunes prompts 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" in http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212 )
    3. Right-click the device in the left column of  iTunes and select Back up (read this article on how to restore http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766 )
    4. When the backup is complete, select Restore
    5. When finished, restore from your most recent backup
    To restore read the restore section in this article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    If that doesn’t work you will need to perform a factory restore to remove it.

  • HT4623 What is the passcode to pair phone to bluetooth in car

    I lost my pairing after downloading the new IOS 7. I don't know what passcode I need to pair phone to bluetooth in car. I tried the code to unlock the phone and that doesn't work.

    Yep, it will be specific to your model car, so you will need to look in the manual.  It may be as simple as 0000, or not.

    We don't know your passcode, and no one else knows except you. If you are unable to get past the lock screen because you don't know the passcode, then you must restore your device.
