How do I change(or find) my restrictions passcode if I forgot it?

Hi, klittle24.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you lose or forget a restriction passcode, you will need to perform a factory restore to remove it. Make sure to import your photos and manually backup your device prior to processing these steps.

If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode
iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
iOS- Understanding passcodes
     If you have forgotten your Restrictions code, then follow the instructions
     below but DO NOT restore any previous backup. If you do then you will
     simply be restoring the old Restrictions code you have forgotten. This
     same warning applies if you need to restore a clean system.
A Complete Guide to Restore or Recover Your iDevice (if You Forget Your Passcode)
If you need to restore your device or ff you cannot remember the passcode, then you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync 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.
Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
Follow these steps to restore your device:
     1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
     2. Connect your device to your computer.
     3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
     4. Select the Summary tab.
     5. Select the Restore option.
     6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
         option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
         necessary to create another.
     7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
         you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
     8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
         logo while starting up:
           After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
          to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
          iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
          you see "iPhone is activated."
     9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup.
If you can not restore your device then you will need to go to recovery mode.
Placing your device into recovery mode:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
     1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the other end
         of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
     2. 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 turn off.
          If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake
          and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake
          and Home buttons.
     3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device.
         The device should turn on. Note: If you see the screen pictured below, let the device
         charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then
         start with step 2 again.
     4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
         When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
     5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
     6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Additional Information:
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

How do I change the icon representing my bookmark? I don't want the one that comes up automatically.

I'm trying to change an icon on a bookmark. These are the instructions I received: 'Lets you replace a bookmark's icon / favicon. Right click any bookmark, select "Properties", then "Browse". '
But there is no "Browse" when you select "Properties". So what do I do?
When I go into the regular Google it has a 'Change Icon' tab in the 'Properties' tab. Why doesn't Mozilla?

How many times can you attempt the restrictions passcode?

I've forgotten the restrictions passcode I set on my iPod. Since I don't want to perform a complete systems reset just yet, I want to try to attempt remembering my passcode... how many times can I try the restrictions passcode without permanently locking it?

This is for the restrictions passcode correct? Not the regular passcode....
And I heard somewhere that if you guess too many times, you will be permanently locked out of your device...

How to persist change in finder sidebar width?

Hello guys, I want to persist change in finder sidebar width once I change it. Now what happens is that I drag to resize then go to view->show view options->Use as defaults but next time I create a new folder, it resizes to wrong setting again. I even tried resizing by holding option but no result. How can I persist this change in width
This is what it looks like when new folder is created:
but I want it to be like this each time:
How can I achieve this?
Thank you

Hi kashif789us,
Thanks for the question. For most applications, when you resize a window, you need to quit the app and relaunch it for the changes to take affect. The Finder app is a little different, since you can't quit it.
I would recommend that you make the change to the sidebar width, then choose Force Quit from the Apple menu. You will be given the option to relaunch the Finder app. When you do, choose File > New Finder Window. You should see the resized sidebar in the new window. When you restart your Mac, this same window should persist.
OS X Yosemite: Customize the Finder toolbar and sidebar
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH19079
Customize the sidebar
Hide or show the sidebar: Choose View > Hide Sidebar or View > Show Sidebar. (If Show Sidebar is dimmed, choose View > Show Toolbar.)
Resize the sidebar: Drag the right side of the divider bar to the right or left.
Change what’s in the sidebar: Choose Finder > Preferences, click Sidebar, then select or deselect items.
Rearrange items in the sidebar: Drag an item to a new location. You can’t rearrange items in the Shared section.
Add a file, folder, or disk: Drag the item to the Favorites section.
If you don’t see the Favorites section, go to Finder > Preferences > Sidebar, then select at least one item in the section.
Add an app: Hold down the Command (⌘) key, then drag its icon to the Favorites section.
Remove an item: Drag the item icon out of the sidebar until you see a puff of smoke.
The sidebar link disappears, but the original item is still on your Mac. You can’t remove items from the Shared section.
To change other Finder preferences, choose Finder > Preferences. For more information, see Finder preferences.
To set the scrolling behavior for Finder (and other) windows, choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click General.

How can I change the find function so that it "IS" shared between tabs?

In the notes about what changed in Firefox 25 is this: "The find bar is no longer shared between tabs." I use the find function all day every day and absolutely need the find bar "to be shared" between tabs. How can I change the function back to how it worked before?
This new change in version 25 will cost me hours of search time everyday.

Hi,
The people who answer questions here, for the most part, are other Firefox users volunteering their time (like me), not Mozilla employees or Firefox developers.
If you want to leave feedback for Firefox developers, you can go to the Firefox ''Help'' menu and select ''Submit Feedback...'' or use [https://input.mozilla.org/feedback this link]. (You'll need to be on the latest version of Firefox to submit feedback). Your feedback gets collected at http://input.mozilla.org/, where a team of people read it and gather data about the most common issues.
