I can't reset my forgotten security number!

I have just upgradedfrom a 6310i to a 6233. I want to set up a keyguard security PIN number on this phone (I didn't have it before), but don't know what the number is. I've tried possible default numbers (1234, 0000 etc.) but none of them work. I'm guessing that I had a number on my SIM (which I've moved to the new phone) but I don't know what it was, and there is no way of resetting security settings without knowing the security number!
Is the security number normally held on the SIM card or phone? It has managed to remember the security number for when I turn on the phone (which I know, thankfully!) so I assume this is kept on the SIM.
Any help or advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
Ben

The SIM has PIN and PIN2 codes. What they are by default depends on the operator (typically 0000 or 1234, in my experience).
The phone's security/lock code by default is 12345.

  • HT1430 How can I reset my forgotten restrictions passcode?

    How can I reset my forgotten restrictions passcode?

    You need to restore the iPad as a new device and not restore the backup, if the backup contains the restrictions passcode. If the a kip does not contain the passcode, you can restore it after you restore to factory settings.
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
    There are also third party apps that claim to be able to recover your passcode for you. If you want to look at any of those just do a Google search "forgot iPad restrictions passcode".

  • HT5312 my name is luis and i can not reset my apple security question i need help

    i can not reset my apple security question

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address then see if the instructions on this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551

    Dear support center!

    Please help

    We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

    Didn't the link to contact the iTunes Store staff in the 'Additional Information' section of that article work for you? If you don't already have a valid rescue email address, only Apple itself can assist with recovering lost answers.

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • HT201303 How can I reset the 2 security questions, I forgot the answers.

    How do I reset the 2 security questions , Best childhood friend and where you were Jan 1 2000

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Contact Apple through iTunes Store Support, and explain that you have forgotten your 3 security questions, that you can reset your password, but doing so doesn't reset your security questions.
    Explain that after resetting your password, you are still asked for the answers you have forgotten, before you can gain access to My Apple ID > Manage your account > Password & security, which is where you need to be to change your answers.
    Remember, support will receive hundreds, if not thousands of requests per day, some from people trying it on, others with little explanation and others that are written extremely poorly. Take the time to explain your situation properly, be precise and concise, brief but comprehensive.
