Locked Out, Forgot Lock or Restrictions Passcode, Need to Restore Your Device: Alternative Solutions
1. Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support
2. Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
3. About Restrictions (parental controls) on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
If all else fails: Place your device into recovery (DFU-Device Firmware Upgrade) mode:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
* If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
charge, and then start with step 2 again.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

My daughter's ipod touch has been disabled because she forgot her password. It also will not connect to itunes because it's been disabled. How can I just erase or reset the ipod so she can use it? We don't mind if the info. on the ipod is lost.
Hi Guys,
I havent touched my Iphone 4s in ages (about a month). I came back to it the other day. I forgot the password, so naturally it disabled it and is telling me to connect to iTunes. In the meantime, i had got a new computer and didnt back up the itunes files (because im an idiot). So now when i connect it to iTunes it tells me to verify it on the phone, but i cant get in there because it is disabled. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!!! I HAVE NO IDEA ON HOW TO FIX IT!! I've tried to restore it, I've tried to jailbreak it. NOTHING works!! PLEASE HELP!!! -

You may need to try this More than Once... Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps...
Take your time... Pay particular attention to Steps 3 and 4.
Some users have reported as many as 8 or 9 attempts were necessary before success
After you have Recovered your Device...
Re-Sync your Content or Restore from the most recent Backup...

I keep trying to reset an icloud account that is disabled because I forgot the password but is not able too. I tried changing it but there seem to be some mix up in the icloud ID and the gmail email address. HELP PLEASE!!
Your password was sent to your emergency email address. Perhaps you have an email you never use? I use the free email from my cable TV account as my emergency email.
Your Apple account and cloud account are separate. You could even have completely different user and password. Most of us use the same user ID and password, but they are not the same thing, don't mix them up.
If you can't retrieve emergency email, you will have to call apple support.

My iPod touch (3rd gen - 64 gig)
keeps advising me that my Apple ID has been disabled - it doesn't say for security reasons
I have reset the device, changed my password twice, and left it overnight but it still will not allow me to update OR install any new apps (that have been paid for).
Does anyone have a phone number that I can call that will reach a person who can get it sorted out???Unfortunately, I don't have a number, but if you go the apple.com/support/itunes, it'll give you the pathway to connect with iTunes support. You can also just go straight to Express Lane. Hope this helps!

So I go and lock my pc only to come and find that after effects says hardware acceleration has been disabled because it's incompatible with remote desktop
I have looked around and others have said to delete a certain preference file but they did not give the file location
Does anyone know where this pref file is?And what is the question? C'mon, the files and folders are properly labeled. Don't make it any more complicated...

Restore it as explained in the article you were just reading. If you're running iOS 7 with Find My iPhone enabled, you'll have to force it into recovery mode in order to restore it (see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808).
