IOS 7 change lock screen language

My kid changed her keyboard language to French, set her pass code, and then set it back to English (I have no idea why). Now she can't enter her passcode on the lock screen because she used french special characters in it. Does anyone know how to change the lock screen language in iOS 7 at the lock screen itself? Any and all help is appreciated.

If you can, back up or copy all your phones photos, files etc. to your computer. Then use iTunes on your computer to Restore the software on your phone. Here's a link to describe that:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
If the restore does not solve the problem have a technician examine your phone. Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

  • IOS 7 lock screen hacked could access photos with bug

    iOS 7 lock screen being hacked by bug can access photos without pass code.

    Guys chill, the solution is simple-try it and let me know:
    Go to: Settings > General > Accessibility > Accessibility Shortcut > (then tick Invert Colors)
    This will access the "Invert Colors" shortcut when you press the home button 3 times - and it will prevent the multitasking while locked option from coming, hence your phone won't be hacked and your photos are safe
    Let me know if it works for you!
    Cheers

  • Cannot change lock screen, start screen and account picture

    I cannot change my lock screen, start screen and account picture on my windows 8 pro. my windows 8 pro is activated please please help me....

    Hi,
    As you said,your system was activated.
    So,I think this problem occurs when a required Registry key is missing in Windows 8. It might be deleted accidentally or intentionally by the user or it might be deleted by a 3rd party software.
    I suggest you refer to the following article to see if the issue was resolved.

  • Issue with lock screen language

    My OS X Lion language is set to Italian, but when I lock the screen on the locked screen the language is English.
    No issue once I log in, I get everything into the italian language, but when I get to the lock screen everything is in English.
    I have 2 iMac, in one of them the issue does not show at all, into the second one it does. Into the latter, I had installed a iCloud beta and I suspect that could cause the issue: how do I completely remove it?
    Otherwise, how do I fix that? Any hint?
    Of course, into system preferences everything is set to Italian...
    Thank you.

    This seems like quite a serious security issue if keystrokes/commands can be entered on a locked system.
    yes, it is. it is a known problem in leopard. it's fixed in snow leopard but unlikely to ever be fixed in leopard as leopard development has stopped.

  • Change Lock Screen in Nokia X3-02

    Hey there, is it possible to change the locking screen of nokia X3-02? it is really annoying! i heard that by changing to some themes it also changes the locking screen, but i like the default theme i just wanted to change the horrible locking screen!
    Is it possible? at least it should be!

    Check this software : carbide.ui
    http://www.developer.nokia.com/info/sw.nokia.com/i​d/bb173537-4e67-496f-9967-50917d5cfc47/S60_Theme_S​...
    It should help you. By default, the standard theme is loaded. But you just need to change
    one picture (ie the lockscreen), and export the whole thing in nth.file.
    Then, just transfer the file in your cellphone, and it should work. At least, it did for me.
    Here's a better illustration (see attachment)
    If you have any question, you're welcome.

  • Change selection screen language in runtime

    Hello Experts,
    I would like to ask for your help in the following problem. I have to change a report's selection screen language to English ifthe user logs on a particular language. Is that possible anyway in run time? I've already tried to do it with the SET LOCALE LANGUAGE at the INITIALIZATION event, but without any success.
    Thank you in advance for any piece of tips!

    Hi,
    Those selection screen elements will get loaded before initialization event itself.
    if you want to change the language then change the language in LOAD-OF-PROGRAM event like this..
    load-of-program.
    set locale language 'E' .  " --> Language Should be single character only
    Thanks:

  • IOS7 has some bugs, Swipe changing lock screen! iphonehassomebugs

    Hi everyone,
    Iphone has some bugs(Part 1)
    Check this video for my very first bug experience,
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QK_nIq4b82s&feature=youtu.be
    Steps to reproduce the issue:
    1. Keep the lock screen wallpaper and the home screen wallpaper different,
    2. Swipe right to unlock and swipe to the left immediately after you reach the right-end. Watch video for more reference.
    Other bugs on the way! .
    Regards,
    Sathish.

    Hmm, I have different wallpapers (one of my photo's for my lock screen and and just plain black for my home screen) and mine still does not do that.
    Try setting them both to something different, but simple - say different colors of one of the default screens.  Or just try one any pair of the default screens instead of your own custom pictures.  Does it still do it?  I cannot seem to get my iPhone to duplicate that no matter what I try with it.
    You can submit the info to Apple at http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html  but try and give them as much details as you can, of anything you have tried that either does not change the abnormal behaviour or that does fix it.

  • IOS 7 Lock Screen Bypass Workaround

    It was brought to my attention by one of my co-workers that the launch day (9/18/2013) version iOS 7 contains a vulnerability that could allow an unauthorized user to bypass the device's lock screen to send out pictures.  Even if lock screen access for Control Center was disabled, it was reported that Siri could be used to access the Timer app and complete the bypass.  In order to prevent this bypass from being performed on company-owned Apple mobile devices, we created a quick workaround procedure:
    For Control Center:  Perform the following steps to disable Control Center from the Lock Screen:
    Press the "Settings" icon.
    Select"Control Center".
    Swipe the toggle for "Access on Lock Screen" so that it no longer green.
    For Siri:  Perform the following steps to disable Siri from the Lock Screen:
    Press the "Settings" icon.
    Select"General" then "Passcode Lock".
    Enter your passcode
    In the "Allow Access When Locked" section, swipe the toggle for "Siri" so that it no longer green .
    Your device is now secured from unauthorized users leveraging the launch day iOS 7 bypass vulnerability.  Once Apple fixes the vulnerability, you can again turn on Siri and Control Center at the lock screen.

    Guys chill, the solution is simple-try it and let me know:
    Go to: Settings > General > Accessibility > Accessibility Shortcut > (then tick Invert Colors)
    This will access the "Invert Colors" shortcut when you press the home button 3 times - and it will prevent the multitasking while locked option from coming, hence your phone won't be hacked and your photos are safe
    Let me know if it works for you!

  • Cannot change lock screen pin or to swipe

    Hi,
    I've just installed an app for my company wifi which requires the phone to have a lock screen. I chose a swipe pattern initially. After installation I wanted to change the pattern but the phone keeps asking me to enter the initial swipe pattern repeatedly. It recognizes the correct pattern but keeps asking me for the pattern for some reason.
    I used the Android device manager to change it to a pin number and now Im stuck with a pin number only, ie I cannot change it to swipe. I also cannot disable the screen lock as well.
    Please help. My phone is a Lenovo S90
    Rgds.

    Hi unicorn,
    I think I know what is the issue here. Whenever I setup the MS Exchange on my phone, there is a need to use PIN (6 characters) as a security. Swipe is no longer an option.
    This is the same for all Android phones as this is a security feature setup by your company's Exchange server and in order for your mails to go into your phone there is a need to setup PIN (6 characters min or text).
    Let me know =)

  • Just got iOS 7, Lock Screen Blurred When I Have No Notifications?

    Just got the new iOS 7 update for my iPhone 5, I realized that the lock screen blurs when you have notifications. So for the first few days if I swiped into my phone, then pressed the button on the top that turns the screen off and takes you back to the lock screen. And it wasn't blurred anymore (thank god! I really like the picture I have for my lock screen. Then after a few days I got some notifications, once again (because I wanted to see the picture I had for my lock screen/I deleted it by mistake and no it's not on my iCloud I checked) I went into the phone and went out and it was still blurred when there were no notifications on display. What is going on?

    sometimes seems like the effect may not auto-disappear, as it should. hopefully the "blur with no notifications" is NOT normal.
    rebooting the iphone always works to remove the burred effect; and may fix this "glitch", if it IS a "glitch".
    but, if your issue is only with notifications blurring the lockscreen, this seems fairly easy to fix, since you can set ALL of your apps to NOT display notifications on the lockscreen. If the iOS doesn't have to display info there, there is no need to blur the background.
    you should note that there are things other than notifications that WILL blur the lockscreen; so when you say you're getting "blurring but no notifications"; then this could mean that the iOS is displaying some other info on the lockscreen.
    Example: for me the blurred screen has to do with AUDIO PLAYBACK, which causes the iOS to display the "playback control buttons" on the lockscreen. When I PAUSE AUDIO, the blur clears up instantly. So, clearly, Apple designed the screen to work this way.
    I will be checking to see if a way to remove the "audio controls" from the lockscreen. given new contol center (which I can access from the lockscreen), there is no longer any need for these controls to display on the lockscreen.
    I will be trying to remove everything possible from displaying on the lockscreen, to at least minimize this effect. But think we all need to request that apple add an option to STOP the blur effect on the lockscreen.

  • Cannot change lock screen wallpaper after 4.4.2 update to Xperia Z1

    So I updated via PCC to 4.4.2 (14.3.A.0.681) and now the lock screen wallpaper is stuck to the "Air" theme wallpaper. Regardless of theme change or attempting to select custom wallapaper, the lock screen wallpaper does not change. I've tried going through the settings menu, the Album app, and the Photos app, but none of them can change the wallpaper. I've tried clearing all data from the lock screen app, force-stopping it, but no luck. Multiple restarts do not help.
    Solved!

  • IOS 8 lock screen info too dim

    iPhone 5 running iOS 8.0
    When playing music, the song info is shown on the lock screen.
    The song title and cover art are displayed correctly. However, just below the song title,
    the artists name and album title are shown.  This info is so dim it can't be read in daylight.
    is there any way to brighten this info?

    Hi barks55, 
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    Increasing the overall display brightness should help you see the lock screen information better. Please use the attached article as a reference.

  • Decline call ios 7 lock screen, not sleep wake double tap

    I am sure the frequency of sleep wake button will kill the button
    Ios 6 has it, please give it back.

    Don't know if a Soft Reset would Fix it, but it won't risk anything either.  Hold down the Sleep button and the Home button at the same time until the Apple logo appears then wait for the Reset to return you to the Lock Screen.  Even if it works, you won't know until the next time you push the Sleep button to Reject a Call.  I think you may want to depress the Sleep button twice rapidly to reject the incoming call. 

  • Changing lock screen?

    I know this can be done because many people have shown their custom lock screens, but how do you do it? I know where to find the images in settings, but how do you get new images in that directory?

    Hi MyMac8MyPC,
    You can change the wallpaper from Settings>Wallpaper.
    If you only see the default Wallpaper options, sync photos to the iPod touch, save photos, or take a screen shot.
    The iPod touch User Guide will walk you through syncing photos and saving photos.
