To remove the Restrictions passcode you will need to either...
1) Restore the Device as New...
See Sections 5 and 6 here...

OR...
2) From a Backup created Before the Restrictions Code was set....

HT5594 After updating to iOS7 on my iPhone4 I cannot enable location services. How do I enable location services? I have tried turning off restrictions but that did not work.

After updating to iOS7 on my iPhone 4 I cannot enable location services. How do I enable location services? I have tried turning off restrictions but that did not work.

I finally just resolved this after not being able to enable location services since upagrading to iOS 7. Posting the solution here 'cause I couldn't find it anywhere else.
I enabled Restrictions under Settings > General > Restrictions and created a passcode (I'm not sure if this was part of the solution, but it wasn't enabled for me by default.)
In Restrictions, under Privacy, Location Services was set to "Allow Changes" (This still didn't solve the issue of the greyed-out Location Services switch though - I still couldn't turn it on.)
Also in Restrictions, I also switched "Find My Friends" to "Allow Changes"
Once I did step 3, the switch under Settings > Privacy > Location Services was no longer greyed out and could be switched on.
Hope this helps!

I can't get paddy power app to open after enabling location services?

i have reinstalled twice. keeps telling me to enable location services. have done several times and restarted. also cleared cache. same problem with betfair app. ipad 3 and latest iOS.

Sounds like a Codesign issue. From terminal, type:
codesign -vvv /Applications/iTunes.app/
You should see:
/Applications/iTunes.app/: valid on disk
/Applications/iTunes.app/: satisfies its Designated Requirment
But if you see:
/Applications/iTunes.app/: a sealed resourse is missing or invalid
[lists reources]
You can either delete the offending resouces (risky) or try redownloading and reinstalling the latest iTunes.dmg from Apple. Try the reinstall first.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

Cannot enable location services

I am trying to enable location services in the preferences, but each time i enable them, they magically go disabled the second i leave the page, the list of apps is empty and i cannot enable safari to use my current location as a result of it. Anyone knows how to fix it?

i just found this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/16847091#16847091

Cannot enable location services on my mac.

I would like to enable location services on my mac but when I follow the instructions it does not work. As stated on the Apple website I have gone to privacy and have tried to check the box which says "enable location services" unfortunately I cannot click in the box/or when I do nothing happens. It looks like that option has been disabled. I recently updated to Yosemite so not sure if that is the problem, however I did not have location services enable before.

At the bottom left of that screen is the padlock icon open or locked ? If it's locked then click on it, enter the password for your Mac, and the 'Enable Location Services' tickbox should become enabled for you to tick. You can then click the padlock icon again to lock it and prevent further changes
(I've asked for your post to be moved to the Yosemite forum, where you've posted is the Using iPad forum.)

I cant get location services to stay on for Waze or Yelp. I check the box but when I return to the page it is unchecked.

You have to go enable it under RESTRICTIONS first if you chose against it to begin with.... then you can alter it in the other places... So go to restrictions first, enable it, then you can go to the other places... like the icloud menu > share my location > enable it to share where you are.... or Privacy > Location Services > On.
I think a big problem is you might have it on in one place and then not others and there are different menus for different places instead of just ONE place to enable any and all location settings. That is what Apple does badly, they have too many settings split up between different menus.... its confusing.

Hey AUABB,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you're not able to enable Location Services on your iPhone 4s, first restart the device:
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Next, try resetting the location settings on the device to factory default:
If you would like to reset all of your location settings to the factory default, go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset Location & Privacy. When your location and privacy settings are reset, apps will stop using your location until you grant them permission.

If the Location Services option is still grayed out, you may need to back up your iPhone and restore the iOS software using iTunes:

All the best,
Jeremy

IOS6 update disabled the option to disable/enable location services

I have updated to iOS6 (from the earlier latest iOS5.x.). I now notice that the option to Disable / Enable Location Sevices (global / application specific) is now not possible post this update to iOS6.
Note, I have already tried the "Rest Network Settings" and "Reset Location & Privacy" neither of which seem to have helped, reboot the iPhone does not help either. please advise if you came across this issue.

Go to settings/general/restrictions then look at location services and make sure it is set to allow changes

How do I enable Location Services on my ethernet-only MacPro?

My MacPro only has an ethernet adapter, which is connected to my AEBS. I would like to "trick" my MacPro into using Location Services and setting the time zone automatically using the current location. These options are not available because my MacPro does not have a WiFi adapter.
Is there a way to force Lion to turn-on these services in a way that is like to forcing it to enable AirDrop (defaults write com.apple.NetworkBrowser BrowseAllInterfaces 1)? Is there some plist file that I can modify?

There is no way it is going to work as the WiFi signal must be registered in a database of known SSID/Location information. The location service has to "sniff" the local WiFi signals and see if they are in the database, then set your location based on what it sees. Without a WiFi card, it has nothing to "sniff." As far as I can tell, there is nothing in the base station firmware that would perform that trick and send the information out to the wired connections.
How often do you move your Mac Pro around between different time zones?

Cannot enable location services on any of my home devices. Restrictions disabled. Field greyed out.

Hi,
Can anyone help me with this problem?
I have "family mode" (or something like that) enabled. Restrictions are off on all my devices. The location services option is off, and I cannot turn it on, on any of my devices.
Thanks very much,
B.

Hi bfbbrown,
From your post it seems that you are unable to access location services on your device. I have linked to an article that can help with location services settings. You may want to review your Privacy and Permission settings:
