I don't know my restrictions password

The only option is to wipe the device clean and restore it to factory settings. Hope you have a backup.
Follow the instructions in iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 to restore the device to factory settings.
Once you have setup the device as a new one, you can then sync it back with your iTunes account and all your music, apps, contacts and any other content sync'ed with iTunes will be loaded on the device. Any content that is stored only on the device and not sync'ed with iTunes, like app logins or data, will be lost during this process. Be forewarned that this is a long process and can take a couple of hours or more to complete. This can be painful, but it is necessarily so to prevent users from working around the security settings. After the restore is complete, you can setup a new Restrictions passcode. Make a note of the passcode to avoid this situation in future.
 Cheers, Tom

I don't know my restrictions password.

If you lose or forget your Restrictions passcode, you will need to perform a factory restore to remove it.
The above comes from here:

How do you reset your iPod Touch 5th Gen if you do not know the restrictions password?

I have an iPod Touch 5th Generation and i need to reset it because i am having issues with it not loading basically anything since i did the update. I don't know the restrictions passcode so i was wondering if there was any way to reset it without the password.

Forgotten RESTRICTIONS Passcode
- Restore from a backup that was make before you added the Restrictions passcode. If you restore from a backup made with the Restrictions passcode the Restrictions passcode is also restored. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod. . Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
- If you are up to file manipulation see the following but it may not work for iOS 6.1.3 or iOS 7

What restriction code do you need? If you mean your Apple ID and password, you can get help for that from http://iforgot.apple.com

I am trying to set up a co-worker's email on her iPhone and I don't know what her password for Thunderbird is and neither does she. Can I get the password?

I am trying to set up a co-worker's email on her iPhone and I don't know what her password for Thunderbird is and neither does she. Can I get the password somehow, or what do you recommend?

There is no password to Thunderbird. The password you need is to the email account. Contact the email provider for password reset.

How do I change my icloud email when don't know the old password after I have changed my apple ID email address and the password? icloud is still online with my old email address!!!

I got a new phone but backed it up through my itunes, and when I tried to use icloud it kept telling me I have forgotten my password, when I really really didn't. So I went to settings > itunes&appstore and changed my password, but also changed the email address too while I was at it, since I've always wanted to change it. But now here's the problem. My iphone's icloud is currently logged in with my old apple ID email address, which seems to not work with the new password, so I can't log it or even delete the account off my iphone. And ovbiously, I don't know the old password that I have "forgotten", as my phone tells me. There seems to be no way of changing the icloud account now.... What should I do?!

So what was the solution. I have a similar problem on all of my devices now

My iCloud email address and my apple ID are different. I would like to change my iCloud to be the same as my apple ID. However I don't know my iCloud password and don't use the email address it belongs to. When I try to change the password, apple brings me to a page to reset my apple ID password (which I know and don't want to change). I have even tried to delete my iCloud account completely to start again but am not allowed without the iCloud password (which I don't have) there doesn't seem to be a place to change the email address of iCloud. What can I do?

This is the answer that I had expected, so in this case you could only change your gmail.com address to another providers email addres e.g. outlook.com, yahoo.com, etc., but you won't be able to change the gmail.com address to a icloud.com email address. Apple just won't let you do that.
Your iCloud account with @icloud.com email address and you Apple ID with gmail.com address are already connected and as I said before, Apple just let you merge this two IDs together.

You cannot. That is the point of encrypting the backup.
Sorry

I need to know my restrictions password

I Need help knowing my restrictions password how do I get to know my password again?

If you have forgotten the restrictions passcode, you cannot do a simple restore of the system as the restrictions passcode is stored as part of the backup. The unlock passcode is not stored as part of the backup so you can simply erase and restore to remove it.
In the case of the restrictions passcode, the only way to remove the passcode is an erase of the system, Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. That removes all of your apps, data, photos, music, etc. The device is then as if it came out of the box. You can restore your apps, and so on, if you made a backup of the iPad BEFORE you installed a restrictions passcode. If you did not make a backup before adding the restrictions passcode, you will have to either live with the iPad as is, or erase and then start the process of downloading apps and music from scratch.
If you have an iCloud account, be sure and put all photos in iCloud photo stream so you can restore them to the iPad after erasing it.

You would need to restore as new if you cannot remember the restrictions code you set.

I don't know my administrator password and I want to download an antivirus. I also don't have the MAC OS install CD either.

I don't know my administrator password or have the MAC OS install CD. How can I download and install software without either of these?

What version of the Mac OS are you running?
Generally anti-virus applications are either useless or actively bad for your Mac. ClamXAV is an exception to this rule.

HT6030 Don't know my keychain password??

I just installed this piece of software on my MacBook Pro, and I don't know my keychain password! Each time I try and get on an application, like chrome or safari, I am blocked because I can't get the pop-up window off my screen! Help???

Welcome to the forums!
In Utilities > Keychain Access you should be able to select the Login keychain (even though it's locked) and then File > Delete Keychain "Login". Then quit, log out, and log back in and a new login keychain should be created.
If this fails, you can manually delete the login.keychain from the ~User/Library/Keychains folder. Then log out, log in, and go to Keychain Access, Edit > Keychain List, click the + to add a keychain, and select the login keychain.
With your new keychain, next time you run Safari it will ask for access to your keychain, you can click Always Allow and you should be set.
Hope this helps...
