HT1212 My iPhone is displaying a "iPhone is disabled" notification. It asked me to enter my password multiple times before locking me out.

My iPhone is displaying a "iPhone is disabled" notification. It asked me to enter my password multiple times before locking me out. Can you help with this?

Hey there!
Unfortunetly, in situations like this, the ONLY other way to bypass that four-digit passcode and/or a disabled device is to connect to a computer with the most recent version of iTunes (11.1.3), connect the device in Recovery Mode and restore it to factory settings. Restoring to factory will completely wipe the device, including the four-digit passcode.
The steps to do so are outlined in http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
(If there is any other way to bypass the passcode, it would have to be third-party, which I am not familiar with any program that can, sorry!).

Aladdin eToken using the Web browsing with Firefox. Firefox often asked to enter a password eToken. How to turn off the continuous requests?

I have found a solution.
For all they wont use a etoken to surf.
Go to extras, options then extendet and go to cryptographic module and unload the etoken. To unload the etoken you must selekt etoken not the name of the token.
i have translate the menu names from german to english.

Tammy,
Unfortunately your iPhone is just a paper weight. Return it to the pawn shop for a refund.
iCloud: Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7 explains the "Buyer Beware" facts:
When purchasing an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from someone other than Apple or an authorized Apple reseller, it is up to you to ensure that the device has been erased and is no longer linked to the previous owner’s account.
Follow each of these steps to make sure that you can use the device you purchase:
Turn the device on and slide to unlock.If the passcode lock screen or the home screen appears, the device has not been erased. Ask the seller to completely erase the device by going to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. Do not take ownership of any used iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until it has been erased.
Begin the device setup process.After choosing a language, choosing a country, and connecting to a network, the device will begin activation. If you are asked for the previous owner’s Apple ID and password, the device is still linked to their account. Hand the device back to the seller and ask them to enter their password. If the previous owner is not present, they can remove the device from their account by signing in toicloud.com/find. Do not take ownership of any used iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until it has been removed from the previous owner’s account.
You will know that a device is ready for you to use when you are asked to “Set up your iPhone", “Set up your iPad", or “Set up your iPod” during the device setup process.

My daughter has changed her ipod password so many times ,how do i reset the ipod when i cant get passed enter passwod step

my daughter has locked herself out from her ipod and cant remember her new password .how do i reset this

Restore, if iTunes will let you. Everything except the password will be restored. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. Be forewarned that it takes a long time. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

Why do we have to change passwords every time we do something on the iPad?

WHy do we have to reset passwords every time we do something on iPad?

You shouldn't have to. It sounds like you may have content on the device associated with more than one apple id. If that's the case then, you may be entering a password for one account when you should be entering another.
I would suggest using only one apple id username on the device and delete any content associated with another.

HT4623 I still have 3.2 on my iPad. I want to get it updated. I have reset the iPad to original and wiped out everything. What do I need to do?

Need help updating the software on my iPad. Still has 3.2.2.

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1.3. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.

Nope... Not if iOS 7 is installed.
If you cannot get this information from the previous owner...
Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
you will not be able to re-activate it.

my ipad is blocked, because I entered wrong password many times. what can I do

Restore the iPad from the computer to which the iPod is synced. For information and instructions, see:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
If that will not work, you'll need to put the iPad into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:

If that still doesn't work, as a last resort try DFU mode:

How can I reset my iPad that I forgot the password to my linked account.

My iPad is linked to an old gmail account of mine that I believe has been hacked. I have tried everything to
reset my gmail password and it hasn't worked. I think someone changed all of my information. I have
tried to reset my iPad by holding down the home button and power button and connecting to iTunes. I
did the restore but now it is saying "This iPad is currently linked to an Apple ID. Sign in with the Apple ID
that was used to set up this iPad." It provides me with the Apple ID: m*****@gmail.com and wants me
to enter the password but I don't know the password and have tried everything to retrieve it. There's nothing
on the iPad so I don't care about erasing any data. How can I reset the iPad so that I can use it? Is there
another method besides the one I have already tried?

If your iPad is running iOS 7, there is no way you're going to be able to regain access to your iPad without the password for the Apple ID used by that iPad. You cannot even restore the iPad to factory settings without the password. This is an anti-theft feature.
You will need to contact Apple and try to regain control of your Apple ID. It is entirely possible, however, for the hacker to make changes to your Apple ID that would make it difficult or impossible to do that. You need to act as quickly as possible!

How do you reset an ipad mini without knowing the password?

I have just recently changed my password, but know i have forgot the new one. How do you reset the ipad without knowing the password?

If you mean the passcode to unlock the iPad then you will need to connect it to the computer that you normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the iPad and restore/re-sync your content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the iPad into recovery mode in order to be able to reset it : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If you do it via a different computer then :
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.

I attempted to upgrade the software on my iPad and I got a message that said it couldn't restore the iPad software due to an error. Now the iPad has a black scrren with the apple symbol and the processing symbol going around.

I attempted to upgrade the software on my iPad 2 and I got a message that said "unable to restore Ipad due to error". Now the iPad had a black screen with the Apple symbol and the processing symbol going around and around. When I tried to re connect it to iTunes is says "cannot connect to this iPhone due to error". How do I reset the ipad?

Please Get the iPad User Manual for iOS 5.

After the restore did the phone work properly for a while? Say, a day or so?
If so it is possible you have an app that doesn't let go of memory properly. I reboot my iPhone ( hold sleep/wake and hole till you see the apple logo) every few days. This resets the memory. The iPhone OS has doesn't seem to mange memory very well yet. So a reboot will help with that. I have had my phone almost slow to a stop before I started rebooting. Always reboot after installing a new app. Also do you close all pages in Safari when you are done? This is a good practice. Safari will run in the background and use processor time and drain your battery quicker. Create a new blank page then close all others when you are done browsing for a while. I have also found that certain web site that have animated images like weather maps will turn the phone into molasses. As soon as i close that page it gets faster.
If all of the above have no effect then as Tamara said it is time for a trip to the Genius bar.
Good luck
