Follow the steps in this article. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212. If you have done a backup recently, then you can restore from backup. However, your passcode could be stored in your backup and may default back to trying to enter your passcode. If this is the case, you will want to restore your device as new.

Glad you found the answer. But something seems wrong. FCP should be able to assign the scratch disk to your startup drive. It's not advisable, but it should be possible. You might want to try and figure out what's going on before what ever's going on cause other problems.

My passcode was entered wrong too many times now i have a configue iphone screen and my laptop does not recognise my iphone ... do i have to reconfigure it?

Please help i don't want to lose all my info and pics from the last week for the 4th time.

If the computer does not recognize it and you've forgotten the passcode, there is no other option.
If you've been using the device as designed and syncing regularly, only the data since the last backup will be lost.

Got a new phone (warranty) and used my last iCloud backup but now says there's not enough storage. How do I fix this?

I got a new phone and did the "restore from iCloud backup" and now none of my new stuff can sync to iCloud due to amount of storage. Is there anything I can do besides buying more memory? I had a gb or 2 left prior to getting the new phone

If you no longer need the backup of your old phone, delete it to free up the storage.

I reset iPod 2G for a friend and now it needs an update however it is not being recognized when I plug it into iTunes. How do I fix this so he can use it for games?

When I plug the iPod touch into my mac, iTunes comes up however it doesn't show the iPod in the left menu area. I'm very illiterate in all of this.

See http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538, assuming you use Windows.

TS3988 In my settings I am trying to use my iMessage and face time through my phone, but it is frozen saying "waiting for activation..." How do I fix this so I can iMessage and FaceTime?

I am trying to turn on my IMessage and FaceTime features on my iPhone 4S. When I go to settings, iMessage or FaceTime, and turn them on, it is frozen saying "waiting on activation..." How do I fix this so I can use my phone?

If a phone is sold from one friend to another and wants to use it on a different carrier the friend can contact the carrier it was sold by to request it unlocked. I know AT&T, Verizon, and Sprint will give you the steps to unlock it as long as the original contract it was bought under has been completed. eBay/Craigslist is really not the best place to try to get "unlocked phones" from, if it turns out the phone isn't unlocked then I'm really sorry you got stuck with that one and as stevejobsfan said above I would report them immediately and see if you can recover your money. I sell phones for a living and this happens a lot

Hi
I have a ipad mini (my step daughter does) she was given it by her father, someone has tried to put the wrong code in too many times and now is disabled is there any way I can unlock it or take of to apple?

Hey there Bungle,
It sounds like your iPad is disabled due too a forgotten passcode. This article should help you get it back on track:
iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
The instructions are different depending on whether or not you have synced your iPad to your computer so be sure to follow the applicable instructions.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,

HT1414 how do you reset my ipod touch..daughter try passcode too many times now its disabled

how do you reset my ipod touch..daughter try passcode too many times now its disabled

Passcode Locked or Disabled
If nothing else will let you unlock the device - after so many unsuccessful attempts will be locked out - You have to restore the device within iTunes. You want to use the same computer that you always sync with so that you can restore your app data and settings. You can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the Device.
Instructions can be found here.

Just upgraded and iPhoto said it has to upgrade library but keeps freezing. Have tried it too many times now and I need those photos ASAP HELP!!

Just upgraded and iPhoto said it has to upgrade library but keeps freezing. Have tried it too many times now and I need those photos ASAP HELP!!

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
Regards
TD

Have tried Apple password too many times now locked out of iPhone and ipad

I Have tried to put Apple password on too many times now I am locked out of iPhone and iPad how do I fix this

If you've disabled your iTunes account (is that what you mean ?) then you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
You might then need to log out of your account on your devices by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on them.
If that doesn't fix it then contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

Attempted to Install 2.3 upgrade,installer folder installed into harddrive but application will not open or replace 2.0 as it says it "should" . I have tried too many times now. Always same response.

I installed 2.3 upgrade,
installer folder is in harddrive but application will not open or replace 2.0 as it says it "should". When I attempt to it just reinstalls the installer, never the functioning application. I have tried too many times now. Always same response. WOuld love to upgrade ( and purge all the alias 2.3 off hardrive!

when I went to the library folder there was no receipts only
com.adobe.Reader whihc included install.log
so I guess that means something is missing?
If above still doesn't resolve problem - go to the folder named
"Receipts" in the Mac OS X Library folder (i.e. the main Library
not you Users Library) and delete the file named Adobe Photoshop
Lightroom 2.pkg
