  • Locked out of phone, can't restore factory settings

    my iPhone 4 is seized up and I can't restore because it won't let me enter my passcode. This occurred after I accidentally enabled the voice-over and tried to turn that function off. After repeatedly turning phone off, then on, it still occurs. The voice-over remains on, and when I try to enter my passcode, it doesn't take my input unless I tap the number several time until the field/cell is populated.  Once I enter all cells with my passcode, the phone says that the code is incorrect and locks me out for progressively longer periods.  Since I can't unlock the phone, I'm unable to restore factory settings.  Of course I would like to not have to do this since I don't want to lose all the data on my phone.  Does anyone know how i can unlock the phone and/or restore it? 

    Thank You very Much sir. it works on my iphone 4.

  • My daughter changed the password on her ipod touch and it will not allow her to put letters in so therefore she is locked out! how can we fix this

    My daughter has changed her ipod touch password and it will not allow her to put in letters so therefore she is locked out! How can she fix this?

    Connect the iPod to its syncing computer and restore via iTunes.  If iTunes asks for the passcode and you can't enter the passcode or yu do not have the syncing computer, place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore. For recovery mode see:

    Reset time. Press and hold both the power and home buttons for 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Then release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds for your iPad to start on it's own.

  • I am trying to reinstall an admin password and got completely locked out. I can't get past the first log in

    I am trying to reset my admin password.  I think my computer was tampered with. I signed out completely and now, I am locked out.  I can't get past a black screen. I'm unsure of my operating system but I've had laptop about 2 years.

    If you boot from your install DVD and, after choosing language, go up to the Apple bar and select utilities, you can restore you admin and firmware psswds. You will these options there. Do not choose a firmware psswd if you do not need this, you may complicate your life, especially if you forget it.
    I do not understand how you changed the psswd and why you cannot log in, though. Did you forget the new psswd or why? What do you mean by ‘was tampered with’?

  • My old Apple Id can no longer be accessed due to my original e-mail being locked out. How can I switch Apple ID's without access to the one my phone continues to use?

    My old hotmail account which has my old Apple ID (which is still connected to my phone) has been locked out. I have forgot the password to my original Apple ID and a recovery cannot be sent to my old account due to me not being locked out (believe someone has hacked it). I have set up a new Apple ID with a seperate e mail adress, however I cannot use the App Store because of my phone only recognizing the original e-mail I can no longer acess. Please help.

    Contact the Apple account security team for your country and ask for assistance resetting the password: Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up     
    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        

  • Upgraded to iOS 7.0.3 - and locked out of phone

    Just upgraded to iOS 7.0.3. I enabled passcode lock (for the first time, so I could try out this new Keychain thing). I am CERTAIN of the code I chose. (And obviously had to enter it twice to set it). It is a significant number for me. But 5 mins later I tried to use the phone, and I'm locked out. I've seen the threads on how to restore, so will go ahead and do that now. But I am posting this in case others have the same problem.  Of course it is possible I've had some kind of mind storm, or entered the code I wanted to use incorrectly twice. But I am 99% certain this is not the case, so I'm thinking there must be a bug. Anyone else had the same problem.

    Apple - what is going on here? I upgraded my iPhone 5 to iOS 7.03 this morning and all seemed fine.
    It is set to lock WITHOUT any code after 5 minutes...
    I looked back at my phone, swiped and it asked for a code....
    I entered my normal SIM lock code thinking it wanted that but NO. Now it is DISABLED.
    What is the QUICK fix please as I am MANY MILES AWAY from the laptop I connect my phone to and it dies NOT have location services turned on.
    PLEASE ADVISE ASAP.

  • HT4865 if I forgot my screen lock out password how can I get into my ipod

    I forgot my screen lock out pass code on my ipod can i get into it??

    Back it up and restore it using iTunes on the last computer it was synced with.  At the end of the restore process, when the iPod restarts and reappears in iTunes you will be given the option to restore to the backup you made at the beginning.  When it finishes, the passcode will be removed.
    This will only work if you have previously synced with iTunes after setting the passcode on your device.

  • After update will no longer accept passcode, can't do anything, locked out. What can I do to resolve this?

    After update I Pad is asking for passcode, but it won't accept the passcode. Totally locked out, no error message is displayed. Keeps asking for passcode.

    Hi dlweaver,
    In this case the iPad will have to be restored because the password isn't being accepted and the device is most likely disabled. The article linked below will provide details about the passcode feature and walk you through restoring the iPad.
