  • HT201365 I've forgotten my passcode and can't get into the phone to turn off "find my iphone" in order to restore it... Help Please

    I've forgotten my passcode and can't get into the phone to turn off "find my iphone" in order to restore it... Can anyone help?

    If you know the password to your apple id login - you can then do a restoration once you have put your device into recovery mode using itunes.
    read this article to give you direction how to put your device into recovery mode.
    Once you have put in your apple id login and password this then will allow you to restore the device once the device is placed in recovery mode.
    good luck!

    Hold 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.

  • Email Password box stays on, forgot password. How can I get into the setup to reset??

    On iPad, the Email Password box appears and will not go away.
    We have reset password, but it will not sync.
    How can I get into Setup, when the Email Password Box will not go away to allow me to get into setup??

    Did you try rebooting the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen?
    If that doesn't work and If the email password screen is preventing you from unlocking the iPad ... Meaning that you cannot access the iPad at all ... You will have to restore the device in order to get rid of the passcode. This situation is very similar to being locked out of the iPad because of a forgotten device passcode.

  • My kid put a password to my new ipad how can i get into the system

    my kid put a password on to my new ipad 2 and y cannot get into the system what can i do?

    You can't get in unless you know the password so Now you have to restore the iPad in order to unlock it. You should restore the iPad to the same computer that you sync with so that you can restore your app data and iPad settings. You will probably need to use recovery mode in order to restore the device as well.
    This explains how to restore.

  • HT4865 if I forgot my screen lock out password how can I get into my ipod

    I forgot my screen lock out pass code on my ipod can i get into it??

    Back it up and restore it using iTunes on the last computer it was synced with.  At the end of the restore process, when the iPod restarts and reappears in iTunes you will be given the option to restore to the backup you made at the beginning.  When it finishes, the passcode will be removed.
    This will only work if you have previously synced with iTunes after setting the passcode on your device.

  • HT4623 I just upgraded my iPhone to OS 7.0.3 and I created a passcode.  I regret having done that because the code I keep typing in isn't being accepted and then my phone gets disabled for 1 hour. How can I get into the settings to unset a passcode

    I just upgraded miy Iphone and now have 0S 7.0.3.  I ended up creating a passcode; which for some reason does not allow me to clear to get into the phone.  How do I get into my phone to change the settings so I will not be required to use a passcode every time I want to use my phone?   Carin

    Hmmm...
    First of all, your profile says you have an iPhone 3G.  Is this true?  The iPhone 3G cannot be updated past iOS 4.2.1.
    Second, your post says you "just upgraded my iPhone and now have iOS 7.0.3."  That is not possible either, as the latest iOS is 7.0.4.
    You can go to Settings > General > Passcode and turn it off there ... if your iPhone is truly not jailbroken or hacked.

  • How can I get into the Dutch App store?

    I am a Dutch Native living in the U.S. and since a few weeks the proud owner of an Ipad 2. I would like to download some Dutch apps for me and my son but I do not know how to get into the Dutch App store or how to find Dutch apps in the U.S. app store.

    http://store.apple.com/nl
    All the Apple online stores are just store.apple.com/(country-domain_suffix)
    Not sure about payment policies and such (that is, if you need a Netherlands credit card with a Netherlands billing address, or whether you can use a US credit card).

  • How can I get into the options menu without clicking?

    I installed the Fx4 theme, and removed both the menu bar and the App button. As a result, I can't seem to find any way to access the File, View, or Tools menus. I googled for a list of keyboard shortcuts, but there doesn't seem to be one for any of these options (and no, pressing Alt does not unhide the menu bar, as it does in some other things).
    Do I need to reinstall?
    == User Agent ==
    Opera/9.80 (Windows NT 6.1; U; en) Presto/2.5.29 Version/10.60

    Unfortunately, that doesn't work. I can't get into safe mode -- there's no Mozilla Firefox folder in All Programs, and running "firefox -safe-mode" from the Start Search just starts up regular Firefox.
    I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium, 32-bit, using Firefox 3.6.4.

  • HT1349 i have forgotten my password. how can i retrieve it or reset it?

    have forgotten password. hint is old and doesn't work. can't retrieve serial number either. any ideas?

    (1) What to do about a forgotten password depends on what kind of password you have forgotten.  Some Apple passwords are not recoverable.
    Click this link for Apple Support articles search for "forgotten password".  Then use the help (if any) in the article related to the type of password you mean.
    (2) How to find Apple serial numbers depends on the item.
    Click this link for Apple Support articles search for "how to find serial number".  Then use the help related to the item you mean.
    (3) You might want to correct the MacBook, iOS 6.1.3 "Product" information
       on your Profile Page. 
    All MacBooks use a version of Mac OS X operating system.  No iOS software is runs any MacBook.
    iOS 6.1.3 is an operating system that can only be used on iPhones, iPads, and iPods.
