I put a security code on my phone and cant remember what it is. How do I fix that problem?

You restore the phone using iTunes. If the code was set after the last time you synced or you do not have access to the computer the phone is synced with, google 'iPhone recovery mode'. You will have to place the phone into recovery mode to restore it.

HT1430 I locked my phone and cant remember pass code

I locked my phone and cant remember pass code

LOST PASSCODE
You should be able to remove the passcode by restoring the device. Do the following:
Connect the device to the computer to which you normally sync;
Open iTunes (Note: If iTunes prompts you to enter the passcode, try another computer that you have synced with. Otherwise, go to "If you have never synced your device with iTunes" in http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212 );
Right-click the device in the left column of iTunes and select Back up (read this article on how to restore http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766 );
When the backup is complete, select Restore;
Whenever finished, restore from your most recent backup.
To restore read the restore section in this article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
If that doesn’t work you will need to perform a factory restore to remove it.

Connect the iOS device to your computer and try to make a backup
iOS: How to back up
Then restore via iTunes. The iOS device will be erased. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
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 backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Is the address on your iTunes account exactly the same (format and spacing etc) as on your credit card bill : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646 ? If it is then you could try what it says at the bottom of that page :
If the issue persists, contact your credit card company and verify that they and any company they use to process credit card authorizations have the correct information on file.
And/or try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

My daughter has put a passcode on her dads iphone 4s and cant remember it and after multiple attempts it is now in "connect to itunes. My husband does not want to lose the photos on it. Is there a way to get photos off before restoring

If that phone has been synced in iTunes, you can restore from the backup after having restored the phone.
There is also a little mac app that can read the iPhone backups that are in iTunes,called ibackupviewer.
Then when there is no backup of the iPhone: read the following aricle:

My daughter has locked her ipod with a security code and I have no idea how to contact someone to delete it. Any ideas????

Connect your iDevice to your Computer and open the iTunes program. You will need internet access and a Apple account. If not, this will not work.
2Turn on your iDevice. Now hold down the Sleep/On/Off button and the Home Button at the same time for about 30 seconds.Skip the Turn Off Menu when it appears. Continue holding down the buttons.
3If done correctly, your iDevice has turned off and then 1-3 seconds later, the Apple logo will came up, continue holding down the Power and Home Buttons. In approximately 20-30 seconds after it shows the Apple logo, it will display a "Connect to iTunes" image.
4Now iTunes will show the iDevice and say: "iTunes has detected a iDevice in recovery mode. Please restore it before using it with iTunes."If you did not connect the iDevice to iTunes before you continued with the steps then this will not work. Also, iTunes doesn't distinguish an iPhone with an iPod in this message.
5Click on restore on iTunes.Restoring the iDevice means to delete everything that is saved to the device. Including the password. It deletes everything because the passcode is designed to protect the owner's privacy. Thus, deleting everything is the only way to reset it.
6After the download is complete, iTunes will automatically install it to your iDevice.
7Sync your iDevice (Or use the backup if you did back it up) to iTunes and you should be back to normal. No password necessary!

During an update my iphone wiped all the music I had bought on itunes on my phone and i hadnt backed it up, how do i get those songs back?! help!!!

help! during an update it somehow went terribly wrong and restored my phone back to factory settings! I didnt lose my photos or contacts but have lost all the songs i bought via my itunes app! I admit I havent backed up recently, but how do i get those songs back?!

Contact iTunes support, plead your case, and request they add the lost music to your download queue. Be nice, as they are under no obligation to do so:
