Password lock on LG lucid. don't know the password, how can I get past this?
I am sure one of my children set this password but now can not remember it..(young kids..my fault for giving free access). Since the battery died and I had to recharge now I cant get into the phone because a PIN has been set. I dont know the pin. I see how if you have an unknown pattern it gives you the option to select forgot pattern but this doesnt seem to be happening with the password.
Can anyone help?
The safest way is to take the phone to your local Verizon store. They have the PUK (personal unlock key) to open the phone for you. Once open, you can remove the forgotten password, or change it.

When making a photo book, my iPhoto freezes during uploading the book to the storey. I have attempted this 4 times now and I don't know what to do! I know the file size is massive due quantity of large image files, but I don't want to reduce the image file size and compromise quality in the book. How can I get past this?
My macbook air is os x 10.9, using iPhoto 11 9.5 (902.7).Try Old Toad's solution here: See Re: iphoto : upload impossible to print a book
Try to boot into Safe Mode and order this way, or sign into a different user account and try to order as a different user.

installing microsoft office for mac and getting prompt for installer password. i have put in apple id password and admin password and not working, i have also reset my admin password 3 times and it is still not working? how do i get past this?
You don't use your Apple ID or its password to install anything on your Mac. You use the admin account's name and password.
Use the name and password you last entered when resetting them. The "name" you use is not the short name of the admin account folder.
For example. If you create an admin account of John Smith, the short name given to that account's folder will be johnsmith. So when an app requests an admin name and password to install something, the admin name you enter is John Smith, not johnsmith. -
I have the iPhone 5 and with the new sofware update it added a passcode lock. Same for the iPad. I removed the passcode lock from my iPhone and now I can access my iPad. It is still asking for the four digit passcode. I tried using the one that was orgingally programed and it disables it every time. How can I get past this? I have tried to do a restore and it still takes me back to the lock screen. Please help!
Force iPad into Recovery Mode. Follow step 1 to 6 very closely.

I have an ancient laptop (from 2005) that has my entire music library. This laptop barely works and some keys don't type anymore. How can I get all this music transferred to another computer, or available to me on the cloud?
No... do not move programs.
About the iTunes library files
Your iTunes library files track the media you add to iTunes, how you've organized it, and other information such as playlists. By default, these two files are in your iTunes folder:
Mac OS X: /Users/username/Music/iTunes/
Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
Windows Vista: C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes\
Windows 7: C:\Users\username\My Music\iTunes\
Windows 8: C:\Users\username\My Music\iTunes\ -
Just deactivated my iPhone 4s and replaced with 5s. The phone was wiped. I would like to activate it just to use it as an iPod. However I do not remember my iCloud username and password (from several years ago) and cannot activate without it. How can I get past this?

Will not accept Cancel - keeps re-displaying same message. How can I get past this? I've tried everything: power off; keep pressing Cancel; etc. There is not enough time to select another app before the invalid password message re-appears.
Try a reset. Nothing is lost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. -
After downloading latest update to my iphone3, I found a "game center" app. I opened and tried to sign in using my current info and kept getting msg that password already being used (yeah, by me). How do I get past this so I can download and use my games?
THANK YOU, LIMNOS, I FIXED IT!!!!!!!! [And yes, I was being REALLY dumb.]
Just in case the following is helpful to anyone else:
The switch has to be done manually since all of the sort categories--except album artist--have changed to automatically sort with articles, which is a bit of a pain if you have a lot of articled artists, but there is actually a way to WRITE IN how you want your artist (or whatever) to sort. I just changed my POLICE to COPPERS as a test, and by golly now all the music comes up/is reorganized under C right below Coolio, still listed as The Police!
Before the newest update, the auto-sort always sorted ARTIST to my liking (i.e. ignoring the article), so I never bothered to check out any other tab save Details and Artwork, but voila:
[For any other dummies out there, here's how to get to this screen: right click song or songs-->Get Info-->Sorting.]
Dankeschön, Limnos, really appreciate it!!! But hey, I guess it could be worse when you only have use of half your brain... -
I Bought recently an iMac A1311 when i got it the hdd was broken... so i replaced it with a new one but now if i boot my mac up ik gives me a blinking question mark so I tried command -s on the startup but then it gives me a Lock and i dont know the password neither the reseller
You have a firmware password reset.
The iMac A1311 is (if I'm interpreting info correctly) an early 2009 model. So this should work:
Shut down the computer and remove all the RAM.
Try booting (you won't be able to even get to the point you were at before, without RAM)
Reinstall the RAM
Turn on the computer and hold down the command-option-p-r key combination before the startup chime sounds. Continue to hold them until the computer restarts on its own a second time, then release.
The computer should now boot normally.
If that doesn't work...then you'll need a genius bar appointment, for which you will need proof f ownership of your iMac. -
I Bought a iPad and when I turn it on I get the hello scree, then the language page, then the country page then the fourth page says must sign in with Apple id and password and it shows the part of the persons I'd shaded out in grey. It says I need this because it activated my iPad. I cannot go any further than this page. I cannot go to settings or anything.
HOw do I get the device to delete the strangers I'd on iCloud and find my iPad So I can set up my iPad?You won't be able to activate it. It is "Activation Locked". Return it for a refund.

Loaded a iTunes card and now it is asking for my pin and I threw the card away thinking that since I had loaded it I didn't need it anymore how do I retrieve it?
Could you post your diagnostics for us please?
In iTunes, go "Help > Run Diagnostics". Uncheck the boxes other than DVD/CD tests, as per the following screenshot:
... and click "Next".
When you get through to the final screen:
... click the "Copy to Clipboard" button and paste the diagnostics into a reply here. (Use your Ctrl-V keyboard shortcut to paste.) -
Need help resetting ipod touch? I have followed all the directions and still it goes back to ipod is disabled connect to iTunes.
Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.
- Next try the manual install method of:
iDevice Troubleshooting 101 :: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch
Place the iPod in recovery mode after the firmware download is complete and then restore using the instructions in the article. Sometimes recovery mode timeouts and returns to disabled before the firmware download is complete.
- Then try on another computer -
My screen on my iPhone 5s 16g has broken and i just received a new one in the mail. i want to sync my old phone to iTunes so i can restore my new one, but cannot sync do to the fact that my screen is broken and i am unable to unlock the phone… how can i get around this?
You don't. If you use a 3rd party to "fix it" or attempt to do it yourself, Apple will reject the return and charge you the full price of the phone as if you had not returned it at all.
It's too late. You should have been backing up before it failed. -
I was given an iPhone 4 from a friend and I was trying to reset it to factory settings but it won't let me. It's keeps popping up with a box to put in my friends iCloud account password in but I don't know it. How can i delete their iCloud account without knowing their password?
You cannot delete the iCloud account that is signed on to Find My iPhone unless you know the password. This is called the Activation Lock:
ACTIVATION LOCK
It is an anti-theft security measure that is a part of iOS 7. You can only get around this by following the steps in this support article:
Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
Contact your friend. This is the only way around the lock.
Best of luck,

In the Manual for the Droid 2 global, it is page 57. See I got my as a certified preowned and I am not sure if that was alread set, or if I set it and forgot it. But I am just looking to get around it so I can enable the Global GPS and have access to my other features. When I got the phone, It had lots of stuff on it that made it look like some demo model, so I restored it to factory and activated it.
