    Connect your phone to your syncing computer and run iTunes. Then restore your phone. Hopefully you'll remember your Apple ID and password.

    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.

  • I got a new itunes account through my iphone but i still have all my music on my iphone but when i go to itunes its not there anymore, how do i get all my music from my phone to my computer??

    i just got a new itunes acount because my other one wasnt working and it was fine i still had all my music on my phone, but then i had to restart my whole laptop back to the way it was when i first bought it because it was so slow, so when i downloaded itunes back and signed in none of my music was there. how do i download all my music from my iphone 5 to my laptop

    I would not suggest starting anew AppleID as you will have problems with previous purchases.

    How doesn't it work?
    so when i downloaded itunes back and signed in none of my music was there.
    Because it is part of your old AppleID (and your library does not just magically appear).
    Did you make a backup of your HD?
    jhow do i download all my music from my iphone 5 to my laptop
    Authorize your computer for your old AppleID then File > Devices, select your device then Transfer purchases.
    I highly suggest you sort out the issue with your old AppleID and continue to use that. Remove your personal info from the new AppleID and don't use it.

  • I am unable to connect to my WIFI.It keeps asking for a password and when i enter the password it says that is unable to connect or i have entered an incorrect password

    I am not able to connect to my Wifi. It keeps asking for a password and when i enter the password it either says Unable To Connect or Incorrect Password.
    This occurred only after installing a new Wifi router from Qtel (service provider). any assisyance is greatly appreciated.

    You should call Qtel technical support and ask for help.
    Where did you get the password that you are trying? What does it look like? (Length, type of characters)
    Do you know what type of security is being used? WEP, WPA, WPA2

  • Trying to register iPhone 4. iTunes store says its busy and cannot connect, try again latter.

    Trying to register new iPhone 4 for the first time. iTunes store says its busy and cannot connect. I have tried many times over 2 days but no luck. What can I try.

    Hello,
    Almost a year later and I'm experiencing this exactly situation now.
    I was in the middle of the process of data migration from iPhone 4 to 4S and due to really slow download speed restoring iCloud backup, I interrupted the process and started a new full restore process through USB and iTunes (reset all setting and configurations on the 4S and did a local machine backup of the old 4 and asked to restore from that).
    After a full successful restore process, I'm trying to delete the old iPhone 4 2GB backup in iCloud and the error message saying that "this backup cannot be deleted because its being used to restore another device, or backup is currently in progress".
    Of course I ran out of spece (iPad, old iPhone 4 and new iPhone 4S backups) and I tried everything, disabling iCloud, deleting from my MBP, from iPad, and no success.
    I cannot restore the old 4 and deactivate iCloud backup because I don't have this phone anymore, probably it's already in use by another person.
    PS: iOS6, Mountaing Lion
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

  • I locked myself out of my ipod and i have no way of getting back into it. any way i can reset it from my computer?

    i locked myself out of my ipod because i forgot my password. any way of me reseting it from my computer? its not my personal compouter that i have my own itunes on though. HELP!

    Since you will not be using your syncing computer,
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

  • I have an I Phone 4, have have completely locked myself out by not remebering my passcode/lock numbers correctly, it has disabled my phone

    I need assistance, I have completely disabled my iphone by locking myself out with a passcode that I have entered incorrectly numerous times

    If you restore the phone from backup, on the last computer your phone was synced with, this will remove the passcode. If you do not have access to the last computer the phone synced with, you will have to force the phone into recovery mode & restore as a new device.

  • HT201269 ive locked myself out of iphone how do i unlock?

    ive locked myself out of iphone how do i unlock?

    If your iPhone is unlocked for more than say a month or so then you need to take it into apple however if it is only a few hours you can connect it to iTunes and follow prompts. But that only works if you can remember your password. If you have any more questions just ask.

  • Does anyone know of an IPhone app to lock myself out of my phone for a certain period of time?

    Does anyone know of an app I can use so that I can lock myself out of my phone for a specified time interval? There are times where my phone becomes a distraction and it would be easier to just lock myself out of it for 45 mins than to go to the trouble of putting it somewhere were I won't notice it and it will be too far away from me to just pick it up and start searching social media sites as procrastination.

    It's called "SelfControl". It can be a little hard to learn to use but it's worth the effort.
