I'm using my old iphone 2g but cant remember the pin can i reset it ?
hi after some help, i'm awaiting my phone to be fixed so trying to use my old first generation iphone but cant remember the pin code, can anybody help? is there a way to find it out or re set it?
i cant believe how lost i am with out my iphone
If you restore the phone to factory settings, then it should remove the passcode. But if you have a lot of stuff on your phone, I hope you backed it up. You should still be able to connect to iTunes and back it up that way, so then you'll be able to copy all of your content back over when the restore is done.

IPhone 5 broke switched to old iPhone 4 but cant receive texts from other iPhone users cant do anything with iPhone 5 screen does not work
I'm guessing that you turned off the iPhone 5? If so, then are you using the same phone number as the 5? You need to go into Settings>Messages>make sure that iMessage is turned on and activated. Then go the Send & Receive and find out if your current number is checked.

when i send a text message with my new iphone 5 to my wife who is now using my old Iphone 4 we both receive the message. How is this possible? Also she receives all text messages sent to me. She obviously has a different phone number and a different provider

Uses for old iPhone once we upgrade to the new 3G iPhone
I'm considering upgrading to the new 3G iPhone. What happens to the old iPhone? Can it be used as a simple music player with the phone feature turned off?
THANKS!Yes, you actually have to buy the iPhone 3G to upgrade from your old iPhone. You will get the $199/$299 price. If you had bought it after May 27th, you could have exchanged it in-store with a $20 restocking fee, but this isn't the case, so you will get the subsidized price of $199/$299.

My iPod touch wont let me buy anything, i've beem using this account for a couple of years and now it says that this is the first ime this id has been used on my device... it's not.... and to sign in and answer security questions. i cant remember the answers to the questions. How can i fix this without making a new account and losing all my stuff???
From a Kappy post
The Three Best Alternatives for Security Questions and Rescue Mail
1. Use Apple's Express Lane.
Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the
bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then
'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Forgotten Apple
ID security questions' and click 'Continue'. Please be patient waiting for the return
phone call. It will come in time depending on how heavily the servers are being hit.
2. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contact Apple support.
3. Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions.
A substitute for using the security questions is to use 2-step verification:

HT1212 i have a iphone 5 and cant remember the unlock code. what option do i have?
bought a broken iphone and fixed the screen but now i dont know the home screen lock code. what are my options
Why don't you ask the person who sold it to you???
iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
You will need the Apple ID and password used by the previous owner , otherwise the phone will be useless to you - no workaround. -
How to retrieve your security answers???? I forgot.
Welcome to the Apple community.
You might try to see if you can change your security questions. Start here, change your country if necessary and go tomanage your account > Password and Security.
I'm able to do this, others say they need to input answers to their current security questions in order to make changes, I'm inclined to think its worth a try, you don't have anything to lose.
If that doesn't help you might try contacting Apple through Express Lane (select your country, navigate to iCloud help and enter the serial number of one of your devices) -
Jez lost my i5S which is TouchID and password protected. Tried using Find My Iphone app but device is offline. Can the person who picked it up find a way to unlock it?
thx for replyg Chris. Do u mean even if the "thief" tries to send it in to an Apple store to "restore as new", it cant be done and the device is rendered useless to the "thief"?

my iphone has been water damaged and in the mean time ive gone back to using my old phone. But i need to get all the contacts from my iphone i had synced to my laptop, but i don't know where to find them and im not sure if ive backed them up to anything!
If your contacts are synced to your computer then they are in the supported app you are syncing with.
When you set up syncing of contacts on your device, which application did you select? -
I want to use my old iPhone 3GS as an Ipod. Nothing is working?
I'm tired of wasting battery on my iPhone 4 to listen to music, so I wanted to use my old iPhone 3GS as an iPod. I read you had to have a sim card inserted in the phone, regardless if it's activated. So I put the old one inside, but when I connect it to my computer, it won't charge, or sync with iTunes. It's definitely not my charger because both of my phones charge in a wall outlet, and my iPhone 4 charges through the computer. Just not the iPhone 3GS.... I'm going on vacations with long car rides and would like to use this. Help please!

I am using my old iPhone for playlist for my Dad's funeral as that meets the crematorium requirements. Some tracks - uploaded from personal CDs to MacBook Pro and successfully transferred to new iPhone (with small doc) won't transfer on syncing. Most do, but why won't some, of my own music sync when others off the same album and in the same playlist do? I have now checked the storage, freed up 766MB, how can i not sync (and get everything i've just deleted back) but upload the required tunes? All help appreciated, many thanks x x x

Is this possible?
maybe this post by Zevoneer helps.
I don’t want to hear any of that “iTunes will let you re-download anything you’ve lost” nonsense.
it won't anyways. except or apps, you are entitled to one download only. there4 it is important to back up.

HELP. I'm trying to use my old iPhone 4 on my iHome speakers and I do not remember my passcode
iTunes has a nasty habit of deleting the previous backup every time it does a backup. If you really have an old backup intact, there is a way to restore from it. I forget the procedure, but I'm sure you can Google it. It's a good idea to manually go into your backup directory and manually copy it over to a new name once in a while. That way iTunes won't touch it, and you can use it in an emergency such as yours.
Here's a website that describes how to do it:
