I forgot my password for Ipad mini....how to reset it ?

How to reset passcode / password of my Ipad mini....I forgot it.

You don't reset it, you either restore from a backup made before you implemented the password, or you restore as a new device.

    I forgot the password for the backup, how to reset?

    There is no way to reset. Once you have forgotten the password for the backup, you can no longer use that backup. You will need to delete that backup and remove the checkmark by Encrypt backup so you would be able to use backups again.

    How to Reset a Forgotten Password for an iOS Device

    Using iPhone/iPad Recovery Mode

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘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 cancelling 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.
     Cheers, Tom

  • I forgot my password for restriction section, how to retrive it?

    i forgot my password for restriction section, how can i retrive it?

    You can't retrieve it. If you could, what would be the sense of having a passcode. If it was retrievable, then maybe someone else could retrieve it and that would do you no good.
    You will have to restore your iPad by syncing with the last computer that you used to sync.
    You can read this article ...
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    Read this as well. In order to bypass the passcode, you may have to use recovery mode in order to restore.

    Forgot my password on Airport Extreme - how to reset?

    the information told me to update firmware first, but a password is needed to update this and I forgot the password. So I skipped this part and it worked for me. Thank you. The manual said to hold the reset button for no more than 1 sec, your info said 10 secs. This did the trick. Appreciate it.

  • I forgot my password for the laptop can I reset the password ?

    I have my apple id but I've forgotten the password for the computer can I reset it some how?

    You router has two passwords.
    1)  The router login password must be given to login to the router and see the router settings.  The default password is "admin".  If you changed the password and cannot remember it, the only option is to reset the router to factory defaults (using the reset button), then setup the router again from scratch.
    2)  The router also has an optional wireless encryption password.  To find this password, login to your router, and click on the "Wireless" tab, "Wireless Security" sub tab.  Here you will see your encryption method.  Nearby you will see your "key"  (sometimes called password or passphrase).  If you want to reset your key to something different, you can change it here, then click the "Save Settings" button, and wait (3 to 60 seconds) for the screen to refresh.  If you change your key in the router, you will need to change it on all your computers.
    For WEP, enter WEP "key 1"  (found in the router) into your computer, not the password or passphrase.
    For WPA or WPA2, enter the key (sometimes called password or passphrase) into your computer.
    Also note that if you are using WPA2 encryption, and if your computer is using Windows XP, then the computer will need to be upgraded to SP3 to do WPA2.  Vista already supports WPA2.

    i forgot my password how do i get into my ipod

    Connect the iOS device to your computer and restore via iTunes. Place the iPod 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 iPod backup that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload iTuns purchases by:

  • Forgot restriction password on iPad mini

    Unfortunately I have forgot the restriction password on my kind's iPad mini. I have found discussions explaining that I need to reset the device to default factory to solve the issue and reset the pwd.
    My kinds have photo and games. I would like to know if the following series might work to recover apps and photos:
    1) backup all contents on iCloud
    2) reset the device to default factory
    3) restore the backup via iCloud
    Will it work? Or will action 3) recover the old forgotten pwd?
    Is there a way to reset the device (including the restriction pwd) and THEN restore photos and apps?
    Thanks! Giusec

    Restoring from the backup that was made while the Restriction Code was in place will restore the Restriction Code.
    You'll have to copy all data and files to your computer or iCloud, then restore, then copy all files and data back after you copy back all the apps.
