Hi maaiverson,
If you are having an issue with your iPhone continuing to ask for a passcoder, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Siri ask for Time when I give a location

I have my home and work address in my contact info. When I ask Siri to create a reminder based on arriving at work or home, she asks for the time. I get to work ar 7 and she wants to make the reminder for 9AM after I get to work. How do I fix this? When I first did location based reminder, she worked fine.

I encoutner the same problem with my iPhone 5. When I talked to Siri with "Remind me to call XXX when I arrive office", Siri just keeps on asking my time, "Ok, I'll remind you to call XXX. When would you like to be reminded.". When I replyed "Tomorrow", it just creates a remind with a default time, without any location information.
If I deleted my office address from my contact, Siri knows to ask me to provide the office address with the same command "Remind me to call XXX when I arrive office". So, I know Siri understands the syntax of the command, but it just won't create a location-based reminder.
I checked that Siri is allowed to use the location service and I have already set the time zone correctly....

Thunderbird 31.3.0 Mac Yosemite. Thunderbird does not ask for password, when there are no passwords saved

Have deleted account.
Created new existing mail account, enter server details, click test - the server details are found automatically. Then enter password and click ok - then Thunderbird hangs forever while saying that password is ok.
Alternatively - create new existing mail account without entering password, click ok, then procedure goes through, and the email gets created. However, it never asks for password. Even upon restart of Thunderbird and machine. There are no passwords saved under security settings
Please help

Asking for passcode when none set up

I never set up a passcode for my iPad. It is asking me for one. I am also not connected to the internet. Help!

Locked Out, Forgot Lock or Restrictions Passcode, or Need to Restore Your Device: Several Alternative Solutions
1. iOS- Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
2. iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
3. Restoring iPod touch after forgotten passcode
4. What to Do If You've Forgotten Your iPhone's Passcode
5. iOS- Understanding passcodes
6. iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
Forgotten Restrictions Passcode Help
iPad,iPod,iPod Touch Recovery Mode
You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.
Also, see iTunes- Restoring iOS software.

Asking for passcode when trying to change restrictions on iphone 3gs

In response to a person on here for deleting a gmail account from an iphone 3GS
I can not enter the passcode for restrictions?
Can anyone assist?

If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode or Just Need to Restore Your Device
1. iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
2. iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
3. iOS- Understanding passcodes
     If you have forgotten your Restrictions code, then follow the instructions
     below but DO NOT restore any previous backup. If you do then you will
     simply be restoring the old Restrictions code you have forgotten. This
     same warning applies if you need to restore a clean system.
A Complete Guide to Restore or Recover Your iDevice (if You Forget Your Passcode)
If you need to restore your device or ff you cannot remember the passcode, then you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). 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. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
Follow these steps to restore your device:
     1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
     2. Connect your device to your computer.
     3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
     4. Select the Summary tab.
     5. Select the Restore option.
     6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
         option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
         necessary to create another.
     7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
         you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
     8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
         logo while starting up:
           After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
          to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
          iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
          you see "iPhone is activated."
     9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup. If you do not have a
          backup to restore, then restore as New.
If you are restoring to fix a forgotten Restrictions Code or as a New device, then skip Step 9 and restore as New.

IPad lock up. Asks for passcode.

Had the same problem when updating to 7. Finally got lucky. When it asked for your passcode it is your Apple ID password by default for some reason. No Problems now!

Mike,

How can I check my passcode I updated today and when I am going to reset all content and setting my iPhone 4S they asked me for passcode when I entered the passcode the one I just update too is doesn't want to accept it

how can I check my passcode I updated today and when I am going to reset all content and setting my iPhone 4S they asked me for passcode when I entered the passcode the one I just update too is doesn't want to accept it

I have had the same problem with iPad recently not too sure why it happened but if you are completing a full reset anyway the easiest way is the restore via itunes on your computer and then set up a new passcode again. Resetting via itunes doesnt require a passcode so it should go straight through.
Hope this helps

My iPhone 6 is disabled as I have forgotten my passcode. I have not synced it with any other device/icloud, etc. When I connected it my MacBook and opened iTunes, that is also asking for passcode. Pl help.

Hi ..
Follow the instructions here > iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode

Hi I can't update my apps when I try to update it asks for password when used it goes back to update. I think I'm not alone and have tried changing date switching off signing out and in and rebooting. Is there a solution or do I need to take it in?

I can't update my apps each time it asks for password when entered it goes straight back to update. I don't think I am alone in this. I have tried changing the date, rebooting, switching off and on signing out and nothing works. Does anyone know of a solution or will I have to take it to an apple shop. My misses has no trouble with her updates, they are both on iOS 6. Hope someone can help.

Tried that just said cant connect to iTunes Store which was different.

‘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 cancelling 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.

HELP! Ipad 2 suddenly asking for passcode

Here's the situation, my dad's ipad 2 suddenly asking for passcode, which he never use one. Ever. He doesn't even know how to put one. And I have seen a lot of "Restore" ideas to solve it through itunes. But the problem is, I never connected his ipad on my laptop which means my itunes doesn't know the device and vice versa. I think it will need to click trust first in the device, right? But how can i click it when I cannot open the ipad because of that passcode. This is too confusing. Please help me

You are required to provide credit card details to download apps be it free or paid.

Don't ask for save when close the file

Hi,
Maybe you all meet a situation that, if you edit the pdf form with adobe reader or acrobat and close it, it will jump out a window and ask "do you want to save the change before closing?".
Does anybody know how to cancle this asking?
Could you share me how to advoid asking for save when close the pdf form?
Thank you all!!!
Ellie

Hi,
I created a pdf form by Adobe LiveCycle, inside, there is a button that you can click it and export the data(not script) of PDF to xml file. So I don't need to save the PDF form again.
I try to edit my form by adobe reader, after I fill in some fields and close it, a window jumps out and asks if I want to save the changes, So how can I avoid this window?
Thanks!
Ellie

IPhone defaulting back to home screen, freezing and in a loop of rebooting/asking for passcode

iPhone 4, just over a month old, about 2 weeks into use has been playing up since.... I'm certain the problem is the same, but it manifests in different ways, usually daily. If unused for a period (as in an hour or two), the iPhone (when pressing the home button) goes to the black reboot screen, then asks for passcode, back to reboot, passcode and into an interminable loop.
Attempting to launch applications, or the internet, will just revert back to the home screen (as if the home button is pressed), or often, the home button will not work at all.
The onyl way of rectifying this is to shut off or - as this is sometimes not possible - screen and all buttons unresponsive - rebooting (holding home button & one of button)
I'm hoping it's a simple case of reinstalling something, or perhaps reverting to factory settings, but wonder if anyone else has experienced anything similar.

Hello Simmo1997,
Sorry to hear about your issue but let’s see if we can get your iPhone back up in running. If your iPhone is disconnecting when trying to restore then check out the article below to get you started with isolating the issue. Let me know if it gets resolved or if you discover a new symptom.
