I forgot passcode to my iPad now it is disabled, how can I log back in ?

You can't log back in without restoring your iPad now.
You have to restore the device within iTunes. You want to use the same computer that you always sync with so that you can restore your app data and settings. You can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the iPad.

If you cannot restore that way, you may have to use recovery mode

You may want to write your password down and lock it away somewhere - that you will not forget!

    First try a Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least Ten seconds... (But can take Longer)... until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons
    If no joy... Try a Restore...
    1: Connect the device to Your computer and open iTunes.
    2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.

    You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
    You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.

  • HT204088 How can backup my photos if I don't remember my iphone passcode

    How can backup my photoswith my trusted computer if I don't remember my iphone passcode

    The passcode is a security feature. Creating a workaround just allows for exploitation and the possibility to steal data. Let me ask you this, how long have you had the phone? How long have the photos been on the phone. iTunes and iCloud provide you several options for backing up your device, and the iCloud one does not require any input from you after the initial setup. You just connect it to power and Wi-Fi, such as going to bed at night, and lock the screen. The device will automatically backup ever day.

    Oh no! I'm sorry to hear you no longer remember your password or My Verizon information. It's important to get it back. What device model do you have? The phone number can be found in device information. If you don't recall or cannot find device information, please send me a direct message.

  • Before I upgraded to FireFox 4 fireftp worked with all sites. Now it does not how can I go back to the previous version?

    I use Fireftp to deliver information to my customer's ftp site. Earlier this morning I delivered data just fine. After going to FireFox 4 and Fireftp 1.99.2, Fireftp takes me to the ftp site logon, logs on to the site just fine and when I try to change directories Fireftp logs me back on. I know the site is working as I can access everything using RinoSoft Serv-U but is limits file size to 2 mb. Fireftp up until the upgrade worked great and allowed me to load files much larger than this.

    I Use IBM Lotus iNotes 8.5.2 Build 401.3. My iNotes also had same problem when I upgrade my FireFox to Version 4.0. The Interface would display the following message on the top of the screen in Red, "A problem has occurred which may have caused the current operation to fail".
    I clicked on Preferences, in Basic Settings, under "For all list-type views:", I changed "Show all documents as a scrollable list" to "Show documents one page at a time (faster load time)". Saved and closed and that allowed me to view my Emails one page at a time.

    ‘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.

  • I forgot my iPad password and it is now "disabled", how do I get back in?

    I have an iPad that has been issued to me from work.  I completely forgot my password, and through numerous failed attempts, I have been "locked out" of my iPad.  The home screen says that it has been "disabled."  When connecting to iTunes I am being told that I need a password to connect.  My first iPad issued from work had some technical issues and it was sent back to Apple...as a result when I received my new one I backed everything up from iCloud, and never needed to synch it with iTunes for my use.  How can I get back into my iPad?
    Thank you,
    Matt
