I've forgotten my passcode and haven't got itunes. How do i change it?

iTunes not needed:
If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
You need the iPod and iPad conencted to the interned and FindMyiPod turned on on the iPod an the iPad need to have the FindMyiPhone app installed. That now requires iOS 7 on the device.
You can also wipe by on a computer/s browser, going to icloud.com>FindMyiPhone

I've forgotten my passcode but i cannot reconnect to previously synced laptop... HELP!, i've forgotten my passcode but i cannot reconnect to previously synced laptop... HELP!

I've forgotten my passcode but I cannot reconnect to my previously synced laptop as it's broken... HELP!

Try to connect in recovery mode, explained here: iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to restore
But, as you don't have your computer you usually synced to:
If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
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
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

Hi guys, I want to sync my Pages program to iCloud but haven't got an option to do so in the pages program. Instead there is only iWork. I think I have the updated version its, 4.1 (923) do i have to update my version or should it work?

I think you mean "there is only iWork.com". iWork is the name of the 3 software programs. iWork.com is a web site.
You can use iWork.com till 1 August. (Apple is shutting down iWork.com from 1 August.) After that date you'll have to use iCloud, though it's available now to use. See Re: How to upload a document to iCloud from Mac?
NB This process is a bit clumsy. Apple have said they'll be improving iCloud in OS X Mountain Lion. But this new version of OS X won't be available till end of summer (or winter if you're in the other hemisphere).
Note also that iCloud only syncs documents between your devices. It doesn't share documents with others. If you need to do this you should consider another service like DropBox, Google Drive or Microsoft Skydrive.

Certainly one could rewrite or modify the Desktop application to have additional options available or even a provision that would allow for an infinite amount of settings. If you wish, you may register your thoughts with Apple here:

HT201365 forgotten ipad passcode but cannot restore because find my phone/ipad is activated, any help

iv forgotten the passcode on my ipad 4 useing ios 7 and when i try to restore using itunes on my pc a message appears saying that the find my ipad feature needs to be switched off first on the ipad, unfortunately i cant get into the ipad to do this, any help please.

Hello emilyg06,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
Take a look at this article about what to do if you have forgotten your Passcode:
iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
Try this first:
Connect the device to the computer with which you normally sync and open iTunes.
Note: If iTunes asks 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, or you do not have access to a computer" section below.
If the device is still disabled, or if iTunes does not automatically sync your device, sync the device with iTunes.
If you have chosen to encrypt your backup, it will contain the passcode. Disable backup encryption before restoring from backup. Learn more about iOS backups in iTunes.
When the backup and sync is complete, select Restore from Backup and choose the most recent backup of your device.
And this section if the above does not work.
Alternatively, place the device in recovery mode and restore it to erase the device:
Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to shut down.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.
All the best,
Sterling
