I have installed ios7 on my iPad 4. After installation it asked me pass code which I have never set. After multiple attempts it is disabled. I don't have backup on my iCloud or iTunes. Is there anyone who can help to enable it or to reverse iPad to ios6.

I have installed ios7 on my iPad 4. After installation it asked me a pass code which I have never set. After multiple attempts it is disabled. I don't have backup on my iCloud or iTunes. Is there anyone who can help to enable it or to reverse iPad to ios6. I asked Apple store & tech said to format it but I will lose all the data..!

Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
Thanks

Just fancy asking some questions which i have never really thought about

I just fancied asking some basic questions which i have never really thought about, but suppose i should know.
The first one is:
A java program is executed through the main method
public static void main(String[] args)So this method is passed a String array but i never pass the array to it, so who does?
And secondly, you can have variables of type int and variables of type Integer. What is the difference?
thanks

I'll take a stab with some overly-simplistic answers. Corrections most welcome.
A java program is executed through the main method
public static void main(String[] args)So this method is passed a String array but i never pass the array to it, so who does?The OS passes the parameters to the JVM and the JVM calls the main method with the parameters from the OS.
And secondly, you can have variables of type int and variables of type Integer. What is the difference?Integer is a wrapper class for the primitive int type. It allows you to use int-type concepts in places where an Object is required. But don't over-use these as there is a memory and performance overhead that must be taken into consideration.

I wish to reset my ipad. However, when I selectGeneral Reset Erase all content and Settings, I am prompted for a a Restrictions Passcode (which I have never set). I have now entered random codes 11 times and the ipad not reset. How do I get past this?

I wish to reset my ipad (as advised by the Apple Store) to attempt to resolve an issue with a non-responsive part of the screen.. However, when I select General>Reset>Erase all content and Settings, I am prompted for a a Restrictions Passcode (which I have never set). I have now entered random codes 11 times and the ipad has not reset. How do I get past this? I am now at the point where I have to wait 60 mins before I can enter another random passcode. I just want the ipad to clear down, erase everything so I can start again.

The other option is to force iPad into Recovery Mode.

When I try to open an .ai/pdf file received through my email, it won't open and asks for a password. I have never set up any kind of password for email security, but have tried typing in my standard passwords. Nothing works. I wonder if it has anything to do with the use of my Wacom3 Tablet...I've been having trouble with it and was getting the same message when trying to open the User's Manual in my Applications/WacomTablet file on my hard drive. Any suggestions? I just downloaded the latest version for the Wacom and recently upgraded to Snow Leopard 10.6.7 (which I hate, and my CS3 hates, etc.)

It sounds like you have a a password-protected PDF. The password was set by the person who encoded it.

If you log into your account via http://appleid.apple.com, and select the Password and Security section on the left-hand side of that page are you able to set them ?
If not, then from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5665 :
If you have three security questions and a rescue email address, sign in to My Apple ID and select the “Password and Security” tab to send an email to your rescue email address to reset your security questions and answers.
If you have one security question and you know your Apple ID password, sign in to My Apple ID and select the “Password and Security” tab to reset your security question.
If you have one security question, but don't remember your Apple ID password, contact Apple Support for assistance. Learn more about creating a temporary support PIN to help Apple confirm your identity when you contact Apple Support.
If you can’t reset them via the above instructions (you won't be able to add a rescue email address until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312

My ipad is asking for a passcode yet i have never set one

Has anyone got any idea if there's a default passcode as I have never set one myself. I have tried many simple codes i.e. 1234 but nothing seems to work

I have just done the iOS 7 update to my disabled son's iPad, which he uses every day for therapies, and now its suddenly asking for a passcode too! After update had finished there was jut suddenly this keypad on the screen asking for passcode, and I have never had or set one before!
Madame as you I tried generic ones, 0000, 1234 etc and all I managed to do was get the iPad disabled from entering too many wrong codes!
Ridiculous that this update sets a passcode lock yet doesn't inform you in any way of what it is!
I have been locked out for days now and I don't know how to get in!
Now apple have release iOS 7.0.2 as a "bug fix" which excited me when I initially saw it this morning but turns out their idea of a big fix for this passcode problem is to create a fix that stops people being able to bypass the passcode!!
God I wish I COULD bypass the thing, but I can't and yet that's what apple decides to do a big fix for, not the fact that I and from what I can see online, many others, have been locked out of our own devices since doing their stupid iOS 7 update!!
Links that are for forgotten passcodes are no help at all as they are for people who have had one and forgotten it, when you plug your device into iTunes, if you've ever created a passcode, there is a button you can see to "change passcode" but for me this is grayed out because I have never created one!
If anyone has solved this problem above, although not exactly the same as mine, pleas please reply and help!
Or if you've seen talk and fixes about this same issue with iOS 7 update please let me know? My son really needs his iPad! I'm also too scared now to update my iPhone in case same thing happens and I'm left without a phone!

Phone after restart asking for unlock pattern which I have not set and no other option is given

Hi all, my Z3 Compact phone was heating up a lot in the recent summer days. At some point it was not reacting and not booting. So I pressed the yellow OFF button next to the nano card SIM holder.http://support.sonymobile.com/gb/xperiaz3compact/userguide/Resetting-your-device/ After this, the phone restarted and it is asking me for an unlock pattern, which I had never set before.It is not offering me any other option like Google identification or security question. And after 5 wrong attempts it tells me to wait 30 sec. I can see that the phone is working, I receive calls and can see that messages arrive. But I can't unlock the phone!! I tried a hard reset using PC companion but it complains and says that I need to have the screen unlocked to continue! So also no solution there! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi
Try this and see if it helps > http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/FAQ/How-to-unlock-a-phone-w-o-reseting-reformating-the-phone/td-p/927295

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
 Cheers, Tom

Just got home with my ipad and its asking for a passcode which i haven't set.....any ideas please???

just got home with my new ipad and its asking for a passcode to let me in - haven't set one up, wasn't told about this in store, any ideas please???? Have tried my apple password & my passcode i use with my i-phone but none works.

Was this a used iPad? Try going to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. This will completely restore the iPad to brand new. It will erase all content, but since the iPad is brand new and you haven't made any changes to it, there is no content that will be erased. Except the passcode, of course

TS1368 I have a new iPad and its asking me verification questions that I never answered before what do I do.

I have new iPad I cannot buy anything in App Store asking me for verification ques which I never set up what do I do

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Start here (change country if necessary) and navigate to 'Password and Security', reset your security questions using the link provided, you will receive an email to your rescue address, use the link in the email and reset your security questions.
If that doesn't help, you don't receive a reset email or you don't have a rescue address, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple throughiTunes Store Support.

I've updated my iPad. Now it asks account verification questions which I have never set up.
