Can't remember screen lock password

can't remember screen lock password!

If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync 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.

Ios7 added a screen lock password on my ipad??

My brother recently updated his ipad to ios7 and never had a screen lock password. But all of a sudden its asking for a password **** he has tried the usual 0000 etc but it disables itself for an hour or so..
has anyone had this problem & can help at all??

I'm sorry to hear that. Unfortunately, there is no way to save your iPads files. You have to restore your iPad. Connect your iPad to your PC or MAC. Open iTunes (if you don't already have iTunes, then you can download it for free on the apple website. When you see your device in the top right hand corner, select it. Then select restore device. This will delete all files and settings and revert it back to factory mode.

Classic ipod, screen locked by a pass code

my kid has a classic ipod, screen locked by a pass code, she forgot the code, how could we unlock it?

Hi there hsvsheng,
You may find the information in the article below helpful.
iPod: How to use the Screen Lock
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1350
Unlocking iPod
You can unlock iPod in one of two ways:
Enter the combination on iPod using the same controls you used to set the combination. If you do not enter the correct combination, the digits onscreen flash red. When you enter the combination correctly, iPod will unlock and return you to the last viewed screen.
Connect iPod to the primary computer you use it with (the first one iPod synced with), and open iTunes. When you disconnect iPod from the computer, it will no longer be locked.
If you can't unlock iPod using either of these methods, you can restore your iPod to factory settings. Please note that this will erase all data on your iPod. Afterwards, you can add your music and data back to iPod.If you want to change the primary computer that your iPod is associated with, do this:
Restore your iPod. Warning: The restore process cannot be undone. All of your songs and files will be deleted. Always make a backup of your important data.
Connect your iPod to the computer that you want to be the primary computer.
Open iTunes and synchronize.

My screen lock password is not working

my screen lock password is not working? please help!

if you can't remember the passcode, there is only one thing you can do. DFU the iPad, restore it and set it up as a new device, you can't restore from backup because the backup will have the passcode in it. You will lose all data on the iPad. If your lucky, there will be a backup from before you put the passcode on it and you won't lose all of your data.

Then restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:

To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

IPod Screen Lock

My iPod was accidentally screen locked. I was playing around with it and did it on accident and now I can't get the correct password and it won't let me access it. I tried the combination I thought I had used but nothing seems to work. The problem is that the original computer I used to program it was my roommate's from school, and she is currently two hours away. I have no idea how to get out of this - there should be another way shouldn't there?

No much you can do without restoring the iPod and erasing everything on it if the ipod is not normally synced to your own computer. Otherwise, have a nice drive.

Screen Lock password help!!

I know that if you plug you iPod nano into the computer, it gets rid of screen lock, but if you forgot your password for screen lock, is there any way to find out what it was?

Connecting the iPod to the computer only disables the lock until you select to lock it again, it doesnt actually get rid of the password. By the sounds of things, you already know that.
If you cannot remember the password, the only way to unlock the iPod permanently and set a new one (hopefully this time one that you remember) is to Restore the iPod.
To restore, connect the iPod, open the iPod updater and click restore. It will take around 5 minutes and will delete all the songs off of your Nano, so make sure they are all OK on the computer first.

Help - Screen Lock Password Language

Hello,
I have the screen lock option activated, and today while this happened my keyboard was on Hebrew, my screen locked. Now I cannot change it back to English keyboard, and therefore I can't type my password in. I have tried using Caps Lock to type in English (small case, so it is OK) but that seems to be an issue too.
Thank you,
Hadas
PS - I am not sure that this is my OS version, as I can't check it. However, I can say that it was bought in March 2010.

Boot with your Snow Leopard install disk and in the menu items (when installer first starts up) will be a Reset Master Password option. Do that and boot back into the Mac with that new password.
