What do you do if you forget your guided access password
What do you do if you are in photos/pictures and set guided access on photos but forget your password?
I am fairly certain that the answer is the same as if you forgot a restrictions passcode.
Note: If you lose or forget a restriction passcode, you will need to perform a factory restore to remove it.
The above comes from here:

Hello alimoshkforoush,
It sounds like you forgot the password for the Guided Access session. Try resetting your iPhone:
Reset
You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can’t restart it.
To reset, press and hold both the Sleep.Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset

How do you wipe out an iPhone with an accessibility password? AT&T Dealer.
Ok, so I need some help.
I have three iPhones, one iPhone5 and two iPhone4 models that customers have a traded in as part of our trade in program, but before we ship these devices we have to wipe them out back to factory default. The customers provided me with their Apple ID passwords and so turning off Find My iPhone is not an issue. However, each of these three devices have an accessibility restrictions PIN number on them, but no 4 digit passcode lock to unlock the phone. Neither of these customers know what the accessibility password is and do not remember setting them. How on Earth can I wipe out these phones without this stupid accessibility passwords?
Help! Please! I ask of you.
Both devices are on iOS7, by the way.If they locked out changes to accounts in the Restrictions so that you can't get in to turn off Find My iPhone, you'll need to erase the devices via iCloud per these instructions:

I have been using guided access on my phone. Recently (i am a part of a testing (QA) team for a gaming company), I have come across a situation where another person has enabled the guided access with a passcode which now no one is aware of. And ever sice, we were unable to test on that device. So i wish to find out if there is anyway around this system of guided access. Or if there is any possible way to retrieve the already entered passcode.
It would do us a great favor if you guys could help us out.I'm curious. What is it about this forum, focussed on a now-discontinued productivity application named "AppleWorks", that attracts so many questions like this one, totally unconnected with that application?
I'd appreciate an answer to that. Meantime, I've requested a transfer of the question to a more appropriate community.

You may have to do this several times.
Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘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.

I jus got a MacBook pro and Im having trouble connecting to my schools network. It is not secured and only requires to login with school id. A Window pops up to sign in but it never loads anyone know why I'm having this problem? Doesn't have a problem connecting to any other wifi
"This is a flaw in OS X Lion. It does not want to connect to open WiFi that has a login page that open in a browser."
Nonsense, no problems logging in at sites that you mention. I use OpenDNS servers. For the OP try:
System Preferences>Network>Advanced>DNS. In the left side column click on the + sign and insert the following:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
Then click OK, then click Apply. -
TS3899 Do you keep getting prompted for your Apple ID password?
When I fill it in corredtly, it tells me that it is incorrect. When I fill in my "security questions" it tells me these are incorrect. I change my password. I try to change my security questions. It tells me these are incorrect and then prompts me to change my password (again) and so on ad infinitum. Any ideas how to get out of this cycle other than smash my appliances?
Call Apple Care and ask to speak to someone in account security.

What is the url when you forget your password?
What is the url that needs to be entered when you forget your password to retrieve it?
Can I just point out the obvious? (Well, it is to me at any rate!)
If there was a URL that "needs to be entered" (I assume you mean a URL to be visited), in order to retrieve your password when you forget it, wouldn't that enable those people you know and wish to prevent getting in to your iPod (which - presumably, is why you put the password on it) to go to that same URL, get your password and use it to get into your Touch?
Or is it me? -
What if you forget your user name AND password?
Hello:
We have several user names and passwords in our family all connected to different devices. We have one account that we use for audiobooks only. We had to delete the programs off the laptop and reinstall and now we can't remember the user name or password. I have a good idea of what the user name is, I emailed Apple help with it and asked them if they could help me reset the password. One of the problems is that I am not honest with verification questions like birthdate for privacy and security. This isn't helpful when they want my birthdate to get beyond the security check point and I didn't write down the lie entered.
We have several hundred dollars of books in that account. I can't even remember which email address we linked the account to.
I'm hoping that maybe Apple can help if we get them the serial number of the device?
Suggestions?Hello,
I do not have such a problem, because I had a very helpful idea. At the moment, I am usinig two User, an Admin and a User. You would not have such a problem, if you follow this instruction:
1. Make an Admin and an Useraccount.
2. Ceep both Users with keywords.
3. Hide the Ode of the Adminaccount, where you would never lose him.
4. Use the normal User.
5. If you would forget your keyword, put out the keyword of the Adminaccount and reset the keyword of the other user.
