Is there anyway the latest firmware could have enabled my restriction passcode as I have never enabled it myself this has happened to my ipad2  and new iPod 4 g

Is there anyway the latest firmware could have enabled my restriction  pass code this has happened to my ipad2 and new iPod 4g,I have not set these codes but I ALLWAYS use the same 4digit numbers  and when I enter these I tells me I have made 4 attempts,what is the correct way to resolve this,does it mean a reset or restore,wonder if this has been a problem with other users as I mentioned I have never set these codes because I have no need to as I am the only user on my iPad and iPod.

I have seen other users report this very same issue after an update. Unfortunately, if you don't have the passcode to unlock restrictions, you have to restore the device as new in order to gain access again. If you restore from a backup - the passcode will still be in that backup and you will end up right where you started.
But in your case, you were not using a passcode, so I am hoping that you have a backup that predates the backup from when you updated the device. If you have multiple backups, you can restore from an older backup that should not contain that passcode and then you should be OK.
Do you backup with iTunes? If you do - go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and see if there is any older backup in that window - other than the one from when you updated the iPad iOS.
Have you restarted or reset the iPad since you updated? It's worth a shot to try. I don't think it will change this situation, but they are both easy and harmless to do.
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.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • I cannot access any songs on my iPod classic. I had around 20,000 songs on it and it now says I have 12,00o but can't access them. Any idea why this has happened?

    I cannot plug it into iTunes and reload as my MacBook crashed a few days ago and I had to get a new hard drive. Recovery software is unable to retrieve anything from the hard drive.
    All the songs were from CDs so not saved in iTunes.
    The iPod was last plugged into the MacBook one day before it crashed and it was Ok when I ejected it.
    Could it be anything to do with this? Doesn't an iPod have its own memory? Any ideas why it has happened and if their is anyway of retrieving it? Is it best to just take it into an apple shop? I am no longer covered with apple support.
    Thanks.

    When I hover over cover flow it says I have 12851 songs but when I click nothing happens.
    When I hover over artists or albums it says 'no artists/albums'.
    I can upload again from my CDs but just wondering if there is anything to do. I live abroad so all my CDs are in storage.

  • Nokia 6300 says I have the latest firmware, nokia....

    There is a new firmware out for my Nokia 6300, but the phone says it have the latest firmware, when I check via the "telephone updates" in the settings. I want the latest! I dont have a cable, or Bluetooth on my pc. I have it on my Mac. Is it possible to update via my Mac with BT?

    Updates are not possible by bluetooth, and currently not possible using a mac.

  • I have the latest firmware... still having problems waking from sleep

    First off, I want to say that I have the latest firmware updates and have had them for a few months: SMC version 1.4f12 and Boot ROM version MB11.0061.B03.
    The problem I have most often when trying to wake is that the password dialog will come up, I'll enter my password, and then the MacBook will just go back to sleep! Sometimes the screen unlocks for a few seconds and then it goes back to sleep completely (i.e. backlight goes off), and sometimes the password dialog just goes away and I get the spinning beachball on a black screen indefinitely.
    Is anyone else having this problem? Is there a fix? Am I NOT actually running the latest firmware?

    Try resetting the SMC (I would also repair permissions before and after - in disk utility)

  • Do The New Nokia N97's Have The Latest Firmware Ru...

    Do the new nokia n97's have the latest firmware running on them (V20) or do i have to upgrade it after it arrives?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    That depends how long it has been since the phone left the factory? It is possible that some retailers have a stock that is very big, so that the phones that they sell right now have a firmware that is a few months old...
    Where are you planning buying the phone? 
    By clicking the "Kudos!" or the "Solution?" button on the right you can say "Thank You" and you´ll show the author and others that the post is useful.

  • Previous version had save all tabs before shutting down,which helped a lot if u open same windows always,but this is not there in the latest version I have upgraded recently.Request you to guide me if this can be accommodated in the new version.

    Previous version had save all tabs before shutting down,which helped a lot if u open same windows always,but this is not there in the latest version I have upgraded recently.Request you to guide me if this can be accommodated in the new version.

    Firefox now always stores the old session which you can access by going to the History menu and selecting "Restore Previous Session".
    If you always open the last set of tabs, an alternative approach is this:
    # Click the orange Firefox button, then select options to open the options window
    # Go to the General panel
    # Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

    No, but if the answer was yes it's a little late to start getting freaked out about it.

  • Zen XTRA is completely dead after installing the latest firmware 2.10

    Hello,?I have tried to install the latest firmware 2.0.03 to my Zen Xtra 60GB mp3 player. The installation process completed about 70%. As I understand, at that point the?new firmware was finally uploaded after a couple of player reboots. The?firmware installer was waiting with a message "Waiting for the player to reboot", and the player rebooted. But the firmware installer was waiting, and waiting... and after an hour I looked at the player and saw that it was not starting up at all. I removed the USB cable, stopped the firmware upgrade process and tried to reboot the player with reset; then I tried to access the recovery menu as described in the FAQ?- but no success. The player shows completely no response to any button presses, the LCD does not even flicker, the hard dri've does not power up - I don't hear it. Nothing happens, even if pressing the play/reset switch for fi've minutes. What's could be the matter? And more importantly, how can I get it working back again? I fear that the warranty has expired by now. Can anyone suggest what to do?I would be grateful for any ideas.

    It is puzzling how some people including myself can upgrade thier firmware on thier devices and experience no problems at all during the procedure. Then theres others like yourself who would experience catastrophic events.
    Since we all downloaded the firmware from the same place, and?alot of us didn't have any problems, it is?at least safe to say that there isn't anything?wrong?with the new firmware. Or else we'd all problems.
    So for these devices that are failing, there must have been already a serious problem with them before the upgrade even started. The symptons just went unnoticed through every day normal use. And are only manifested through a reload/upgrade of firmware. Or something happened on the computer itself, during the transfer of data; auto file scanning virus protection comes to mind, or other programs or services running in the background that were taking up resources needed to make the upgrade go smoothly,?a USB cable with a short in it or a bad USB port. Who knows?!
    If the player doesn't even start?up in?rescue mode then theres really nothing as a consumer you can do to fix it. You'd have to just see about getting it repaired, or replace it. I know yours is a 60GB, but?I gotta tell you the new 30GB Zen Vision M is a sweet deal!

  • HT1444 How can I upgrade my system 10.4 into a newer one or the latest I could get for my machine?

    I currently have Mac OS X V. 10.4.11 and there are some things I'm unable to use on my computer, Adobe flash player being one of them, so I figured why not upgrading my software into the latest I could get? However I have no clue how can this be done, or if it can be done?
    I'll appreciate any advice. Thank you.

    Upgrade to Leopard
    Those wishing to upgrade to Leopard should be aware that install disks can be expensive unless you contact Apple. Details: http://lowendmac.com/deals/best-os-x-leopard-prices.html Standard Leopard installers impose several hardware limitations including speed and RAM size but all these restrictions can be overcome. Google for details. Leopard works well at 500 MHz with 1 GB of RAM and many happy users have less than this.
    Upgrade beyond Leopard
    OSs beyond OS X 10.5.8 require an Intel processor. If in doubt check this: Click the apple at the top left of your screen and select 'About this Mac'. This will give you your OS number. Then click 'More Info' to see which processor you have. If it says PowerPC you cannot upgrade to Snow Leopard and above. If you have an Intel Mac it is well worth upgrading to Snow Leopard now and then considering other options after that. You can buy Snow Leopard here: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A

  • Im using an iphone 4s with the latest firmware which is 6.1.3 but my wifi button keeps going grey how can i fix it? i rested network connections and it worked for a while and went grey again,what can i do?

    im using an iphone 4s with the latest firmware which is 6.1.3 but my wifi button keeps going grey how can i fix it? i rested network connections and it worked for a while and went grey again,what can i do?

    Have you worked through the Troubleshooting iOS and WiFi knowledge base article?  If not, see if there is info in there that might help.
    Is the WiFi greyed out on all WiFi networks or just the one?  If it does this on all then there may be a hardwaer problem that needs attention from the techs at an Apple store genius bar.
    Before that, however, try a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears and it restarts, ignoring the red slider if it appears.  That clears a lot of iOS hang ups that occur.

  • What is the latest firmware & version of SANtricity for my FlexLine 280's?

    We have a pair of FlexLine 280's. They are at firmware 6.12. We use SANtricity 9.19.G2.04 to manage them.
    I have been doing some research and know there is firmware levels 6.19, 6.60, and 7.x out there. Although, I'm not sure if there is a 7.x for the FLX280's.
    I also know there are newer version of SANtricity, 9.19.G2.06 and a 10.10 version. But again, I'm not sure if 10.10 is compatible with the FLX280's.
    So, can somebody help me out? What is the latest firmware for my FLX280's? What is the latest version of SANtricity I can use?
    Also, am I entitled to free SANtricity upgrades? I am under a maintenance contract. Or is that something I would have to purchase?
    Thanks for any help,
    Nathan

    The f/w 7.x isn't supported for the FLX280. The latest f/w is 6.60.xx.xx and there will be not 7.x f/w for the FLX280. In other words, the 6.60.xx.xx is the latest f/w we'll have for the FLX280.
    I also know there are newer version of SANtricity, 9.19.G2.06 and a 10.10 version. But again, I'm not sure if 10.10 is compatible with the FLX280's.
    So, can somebody help me out? What is the latest firmware for my FLX280's? What is the latest version of SANtricity I can use?AFAIK, the latest f/w is 06.60.11.20.
    As for Santricity I cannot answer.
    Also, am I entitled to free SANtricity upgrades? I am under a maintenance contract. Or is that something I would have to purchase?You need to contact your Sun support representative to validate this.
