IOS 6 locked me out of ipad2 . Won't accept my pass code

I upgraded my ipad2 to ios6 last night. This morning I go to my iPad and it has grey screen with IOS 6 on it. I try to unlock it and it does not accep my pass code. Please help.

Passcode
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.
You may have to force iPad into Recovery Mode

  • My ipad2 won't accept my apple password for new app install. I've tried several time and get a pop up "unknown error". Help?

    Sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try again.

  • I locked up my restrictions and don't remember my pass code.    That was 2 years ago now I want to use FaceTime, iCloud etc and I've restricted myself....   HELP somebody.  PLEASE

    I have an IPad2. When I first got it my 9 year old nephew was using it a lot &hi noticed stuff was missing like photos and apps and new stuff had been added.
    I wanted to lock up stuff so he could not download and get rid of things I wanted on there. I set my restrictions up so I thought I was safe. I inadvertently locked myself out by forgetting the lock code for my restrictions. It's been 2 years and I need to set up things I am locked out of. Can anyone help me ?  Is there a way to reset my lock code on my restrictions?

    Forgotten Restrictions Passcode Help
                iPad,iPod,iPod Touch Recovery Mode
    You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
    You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.
    Also, see iTunes- Restoring iOS software.

  • I am unable to activate Lightroom 5....it WON'T accept the redemption code.

    I downloaded Lightroom 5 and when I went into the program it wanted me to activate it. Put in the activation code and all that happens is that a red X shows up. It won't accet the redemption code that is in the box.........now what. Can't seem to find support.........just keeps going from page to page on this web site........

    Thanks for the info...........but ended up calling the phone# as if I were buying the software and worked my way to tech support. Short story is that they couldn't get my 'redemption code' to work SO that I could get the 'serial number' either.......but the nice lady worked at it and finally she was able to get the serial number for me.
    So now I am up and running.........now need to learn this program.

  • Firefox won´t accept entered verification codes.

    On some websites (eBay for example) you have to enter a verification code (to avoid spam messages) to be able to send email to a seller.
    When I do that in Firefox the website won´t accept my enter and asks me to enter the code (a new one) again.
    When I execute exactly the same procedure in Internet Explorer there are no such problems.
    (Firefox ver 16.02.4680. IE ver 8.0.6001.18702.)
    What shall I do to be able to use Firefox in the same way as IE?
    Best regards

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • Migration assistant won't accept Aperture upgrade code

    After using Migration Assistant to transfer my files and programs to my new iMac, Aperture asks for a licence code;  I entered the code associated with my Aperture 3 Upgrade pack but Aperture will not accept this and wants the original code for the earlier Aperture which is long gone - how do I get Aperture to work with the more recent upgade code?

    how do I get Aperture to work with the more recent upgade code?
    You need to procure an Aperture 2 licence code. The upgrade licence is only valid in combination with the original licence.

  • I installed IOS 7 and now it won't accept my password. How do i fix it?

    I finally got around to installing IOS 7 and now my phone won't accept the 4 digit passcode. I didn't think about disabling that feature before the upgrade. Never had a problem before. And yes, I'm sure I'm using the right code. I use it many times per day! I tried plugging into my computer and itunes but since it isn't unlcocked it won't recognize it. Likewise with iCloud. I tried find my phone and it comes up offline. This is a last ditch effort. I can't even phone a friend! Any workaround?

    The security is tighter in iOS7,
    When you install it for the first time it asks you a few questions to configure these new settings, and I'm wondering that you may be confusing the new authorization scheme for your old password.
    When first running iOS7 after the upgrade it will ask you for (not your iPhone password) but your iCloud/Apple ID password.
    Read the questions carefully and make sure that you're not confusing the two as prompted. You may not be, but this is my initial thoughts, as the install does not change any existing passwords but does link the hardware to iCloud to further prevent theft.
