Iam trying to reset my iphone4 but it asks for password i forgot??

how to reset all contents and settings on iphone4? it keeps asking for password i forgot?

You have restrictions turned on & you forgot the restyrictions passcode. You can plug your phone in, iTunes running & hit the restore button on the summary pane, or login to iCloud.com from any computer & erase the phone. Either or will do what you want.

A "hard reset" will do the same thing.
Make sure that the AirPort Extreme is powered on
Hold in the reset button for a few seconds and the amber light will begin to blink more quickly. Keep holding the reset button when you see this for another 4-5 seconds and release
Allow 25-30 seconds for the AirPort Extreme to restart to a slow, blinking amber light
Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility and click Continue to follow the guided setup

Trying to restore factort settings, it is asking for password, however we have never put a password on it?!

Never had this happen before, I have reset others, never been asked for password? We have not put one on.

Sounds like it is the Restrictions (Settings>General>Restrictions) PW. If y do not know it
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

Im trying to update an app on my phone but keeps asking me for the password of my cousins account, and I have never purchased an app with his account. I restored my cousins phone on my computer but I dont know if that has to do anything with the problem.

Guest password is turned on Cisco Connect but not asking for password when joining network.

I just set my wireless modem and i had applied a password for the guest wifi signal and turned it on. But when you join the network its not asking for the password. What do i do to fix this?

When you connect to the Guest network, you wouldn’t be asked for a password. The guest password would only be prompted once you open your internet browser.

I am trying to open sertain books but it asks for a vendor id, when I type it in it tells me it is incorrect

I have authorized my new computer with my adobe id. I still can't open certain books, when I try it asks me for a vendor id. I have contacted my vendor and they say it is the same as my adobe id. But when I enter it the program say that it is incorrect

Nope, the AppleID is a email address and a different password from the Admin account name and password you setup on the machine when you first got it.
So use the Admin name and password, if you don't know what it is.
If you only have one user (it's a Admin) set up on the machine, then look in System Preferences > Accounts for the name.
If you need to reset the password to a new one, hold the command and r keys and restart the machine under the Apple menu.
A new type of screen shows up, select Terminal and type resetpassword and press enter, follow instructions to reset your password.
(If on 10.6 Snow Leopard, use your 10.6 disk, reboot form the disk holding the c key down and look under the Utilities menu for the Password Reset Utility.)

Store will not allow purchases. Recognizes ID but keeps asking for password.

I cannot access my ID account through the I-tunes store. Nor can I purchase anything.
The last thing I purchased was, "matching." That product seems to also be having an error that asks me to sign out and back into my apple ID. The error message pops up if I try to link my computer to "matching."

Maybe you should reset your password.

unplug the iphone from you computer.
quit itunes.

as soon as the iphone screen goes black release finger from sleep/wake button but continue to hold home button.
an apple logo should appear on the iphone screen

itunes should now let you know it has detected a phone in recovery mode.
choose to restore iphone.

I forgot my password and am trying to reset my ipod, but it won't work.It says that my ipod is in recovery mode and that I must restore it. I click ok, and then click on restore and update. Then it says connecting ipod software update server and a screen pops up with ipod software update on the top and iOS 5.1. It lists a bunch of stuff this update contains and on the bottom it says next, which I click and nothing happens, it just goes back to the ipod restore page. Help, what am I doing wrong?

Update to the latest version of iTunes. Mac OS X 10.5.8 (Leopard) users may need to download iTunes 10.6.3.
Third-party security software or router security settings can also cause this issue. To resolve this, followTroubleshooting security software issues.
Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported. If you have installed software to performunauthorized modifications to your iOS device, that software may have redirected connections to the update server (gs.apple.com) within the Hosts file. Uninstall the unauthorized modification software from the computer.
Edit out the "gs.apple.com" redirect from your hosts file, and then restart the computer for the host file changes to take affect. For steps to edit the Hosts file and allow iTunes to communicate with the update server, see iTunes: Troubleshooting iTunes Store on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you do not uninstall the unauthorized modification software prior to editing the hosts file, that software may automatically modify the hosts file again on restart.
Avoid using an older or modified .ipsw file. Try moving the current .ipsw file (see Advanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations), or try restoring in a new user to ensure that iTunes downloads a new .ipsw.
