I can't paste for my lock screen password.

What can I do to unlock my phone??

Enter your lock screen passcode. If you don't remember it sync the phone to the last computer you synced to. And if you can't do that you will have to restore your phone as New. You will lose all of the data on your phone.

I have forgot my password for my lock screen what can i do to get on it?

i have forgot my password for my lock screen, and it now says connect to iTunes but it isnt connecting i want to know how to get it on?

2 options
1. restore it to a backup you took before you put a password on
2. restore it to factory settings if there was a work around then the whole password thing would be rather pointless and security would be absent

Better use for the Lock Screen

Why isn't apple making a better use for the Lock Screen (or lets 3rd party apps to do it)?
Why can't we get a preview of our upcoming calendar events, get weather info and other useful information just by pressing ON.
every other smart phone has it. Ever the old Nokia smartphone has it.
So why aren't we?

Wow ... I am sure Apple will be in shock. They have only sold five million phones and obviously everyone has ben wringing their hands this glaring omission.
Seriously, tell Apple here http://www.apple.com/feedback/ as we are just users like you can can do nothing for you and your demands. And signing up for the Board just to say that was a waste of your time but it is of course yours to waste.
And, FWIW I am completely happy about not having my personal information on display on my phone.

Why does the picture always zoom in when I try to set one for my lock screen or background?

When I chose a picture for my lock screen wallpaper it automatically zooms in on the picture. I cannot zoom out because it will not let me. I've tried different sites, reseting and I cant make any major adjustments without losing all my pictures, videos, ect. Is there something in the settings that needs to be changed or is this just a bug that Apple needs to work out?

On the Home screen, double-tap with three fingers to exit zoom.
Then go to Settings > General > Accessibility and make sure Zoom is turned Off.

You will have to restore the phone as new to remove the passcode and then you can restore from your latest backup. See this support document. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212

Lumia - Lock Screen Password

I want to enable password for my lock screen. But it doesnt work as I expected. It says that I can set a particular time that password will enable. And I did set for example one minute till the password will enable, before a minute and my screen is locked, I have to input the password.
and i'm wondering why the lock screen password also lock my child enable screen? The password should be enable only for my screen, not to my kid screen.
I hope, nokia or microsoft can solve this ackward. Thank you.

cannot say why you are having a challenge if the kids corner is locking too.
are you sure that when you tap the power button to turn on, that you are swiping to the right FIRST and then up? because on my device, the lock shows on my screen but after i swipe to the kids login, it does not require the pin.

‘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 canceling 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.

IMac lock screen password not working

I know my Apple ID & Password and they both work for every purpose on my iMac except the lock screen. If I swipe my mouse in a certain way (and I'm not exactly sure which mouse gesture it is) but it locks my screen and demands a password be entered to unlock it. However, it doesn't accept my normal Apple password, the same password I use to install things or for purchases etc. I have to do a hard reboot and it logs on as normal. Any idea why?

I only know of one password I've ever used on this Mac. I've also tried 2 other passwords that I sometimes use for other things to no avail. Are there any set rules for the password format for the lock screen? If it has some very specific rules I might have adapted my password slightly and then forgotten it!

I can't paste for my lock screen password.
