Ow to unlock my ipad when i lost my security code?

i'm having difficulties to unlock my pad, after forgotten and typing my code several times.

If you've forgotten the passcode to unlock your 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 computer that it hasn't been synced, and which therefore doesn't have a backup on it, 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.

    You have to wipe your iPad, and restore as new. Everything you had on there is now gone, unless you had it elsewhere.

    Moderator's note: IMEI number removed. Avoid revealing the IMEI number of your phone as this is a unique identification number for your Nokia phone. It is best that these numbers are kept for personal viewing to prevent unwanted inconveniences.

    If you've lost your security code then your only option is to take the phone and proof that you are its owner along to your nearest Nokia Care Point.
    They will reset the security code to the default 12345 for you. Make sure you do a full backup first, though, because the operation may well entail resetting the phone entirely.
    Proof of ownership is required in order to demonstrate that you're not trying to have a stolen phone unlocked. You will need the invoice with the phone's IMEI number and your name printed on it, and photo ID.

  • Lost the security code...

    Hi I lost my security code and I can't change it... I tried *#7780#, and all other way to reset it...but it ask me the security code and I can't reset...
    I've already tried to change it at the *#3001#12345# but it accept the code, I restarted my cell phone..to try to change the code, and it says that the code is wrong..
    Is there a way to change the code ???
    Thanks

    I think the only way to change it is to take it to your nearest Nokia Service Centre though I would take proof of purchase with you if you can - just in case they ask for it...

  • HT3702 I lost my security code?

    I lost my security code?

    The default security/lock code is 12345 on most Nokia models.
    If you or someone has changed it, then you could try updating the phone firmware (all data will be lost):
    http://www.nokia.com/softwareupdate
    If that doesn't help, ask your nearest Nokia repair center for assistance.
    And in the meanwhile, if you can't get your phone working, put your SIM card in another phone so you don't miss your important calls.

    You may have to do this several times.

    ‘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.

  • Does anybody noticed that new iPad can be access without security code when using twice smart cover

    New iPad has the same problem like iPad 2 with smart cover allowing accessing home page without putting security code
    Very serious problem
    Just try to put cover ones and open when security code screen appears don't do anything close cover, open again and you are in home page
    Risky eh?

    My iPad 2 certainly does not do this with its magnetic cover.  I call BS on this -- there's no way that happens as you've described.
