Are you 100% sure that the HDD is totally damaged and there is absolutely no way to recover DATA at all???
Actually the drive might be working fine and there could be a Mac hardware, boot sector malware or cable issue at fault, that can't be determined until the drive is removed from the Mac and a SATA to USB adapter cable used to another Mac, PC or Linux machine.
Even if the file structure is defective there is Data Rescue type software that can read the 1's and 0's of unencrypted data directly off the drive.
If your data is really valuable and worth more than a few thousand dollars, there is Drive Savers which will physically dissect the drive and read the platters directly if the above method fails.
Is it possible.. if I take out the HDD and connect it to some other PC as standby and copy data.. may be its booting section got damaged and it cant boot but it may detect and allow me to copy my data when standby?
Yes it is possible, a piece of software called MacDrive can be installed on the Windows PC and used to read the HFS+ format of the Mac boot drive.
Linux also will read HFS+ format and also fix a lot of problems with drives to get them working.
I suggest you take your Mac to a Linux level geek first to do a hardware evaluation of the drive, a passive image of the drive if it's working so you can later use Data Rescue (no encryption/Filevault) yourself as it takes hours.
If the drive isn't working physically, then consider Drive Savers if you want to part with a few thousand and the drive is not encrypted/Filevaulted.
Forget Apple and many of their type repair shops, they usually don't/won't/can't take the time and just replace your drive and tell you tough luck you should have backed up.

You may have to do this several times.
Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

- Restore from a backup that was make before you added the Restrictions passcode. If you restore from a backup made with the Restrictions passcode the Restrictions passcode is also restored. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- If you are up to file manipulation see the following but it may not work for iOS 6.1.3 or iOS 7

Hello, benkitch.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You can reset your Apple ID password via the steps in the first article below. I would select the option to answer your security questions. If you do not have access to the email account or are not receiving the password reset link, see the second article.

Used MacBook Air came with admin password that I cannot change.
I bought a used MacBook Air that came with an administrator password, and someone's name in the upper right corner, and I cannot change it. He didn't have the password either.
Here's how to reset the password. Once in, I would reload Lion and start fresh.

My problem has now been solved. I have selected the option to save passwords. Later I deselected it. After all, it is a simple mistake made by me. Thanks for the replies sent to resolve this. It simply is a setting in Options.

I forgot my password on my ipad (changed it late in evening). It was backed up to cloud on Friday or Saturday. Important pictures and videos of my daughter were taken Sunday. I've tried to put in password and now its disabled. I was told I need to erase and start over. Will Icould backup again in a few days and they I can delete and start over and reput stuff from Icloud back on ipad once I reset and do new password? I know nothing about computers. Please help
Oh my! Obviously, I don't know what I'm doing. But I do know that my goal was to do both---backup AND free some space. My iMAc is old (2006) and I upgraded it a year or so ago to Snow Leopard. I didn't think I had the capability of backing up without an external drive, but maybe I do since I upgraded. Do I?
But I bought this My Book mostly for freeing space because I like to make cards in Photoshop and I'm forever running out of space when I get too many layers (don't really know what I'm doing there, either).
Is there some way that I can rectify my mistakes and start all over?
Thank you so much for beng so prompt with your reply and patient with mine. I tried for so long to see the dialog box with the library listings. When I launched iPhoto, even with holding down the Option key, it kept immediately launching into the full screen. Finally, after an hour of doing it over and over again, it worked when I held the key down for 5 minutes. Then when I was typing my reply, I kept getting a message to "Request Time Out." Didn't know how to do that, so kept hitting the OK button and kept typing for another half minute. Finally, when ready to send, Safari couldn't do it. "Try again" exasperated me until I realized I would have to begin again and use Firefox. When I got there and ready to type, I got the message that my message had been retrienved and did I want to use it?!!
So your kindness is very much appreciated. -

How do you re-set the four digit password when your son, the comedian, thinks it was funny to change the password, but now cannot remember what he changed it to? the phone goes inactive for 60 minutes, but I can't figure out how to get a reset. Thanks, kel
You're in trouble. You'll have to force the phone into recovery mode & restore it to remove the passcode:
Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. -
