What is the default restrictions code win restoring factory settings on an iPhone 3gs

I am trying to restore the factory settings to I can give the phone to a family member, but when I try it is asking for a restrictions pass code.
I don't ever remember setting one.
Is there a default one that I need to enter?
What is it?

Try 0000
I never set either passcode but Restrictions required one to get in so I tried a typical passcode that I might have used.  It didn't work so I tried 0000 and it worked.

    If the screen is completely shattered why bother to try and restore the phone?

  • My iPod 5 will not sync ANY music. All my music was on prior to syncing. The sync deleted all my music. I can now no longer add any music. I have the "sync music" checked. Restoring factory settings did not work. Any thoughts?

    When you synced with iTunes It would have tried to replace the music on the iPhone with what is on the computer. which is what happens when you sync with iTunes.
    If the songs are purchased you can re-downloaded them Pretty easily. You mentioned that you still see the songs and that you could not play them. Do they have a Cloud symbol next to them? If so this means that you can download them but that they are not on the device.

  • What's the last version of IOS I can download on my iphone 3gs? (it is factory unlocked)

    what's the last version of IOS I can download on my iphone 3gs? (it is factory unlocked)

    Some App developers keep older versions around for download.
    You will need to download the App to iTunes on a computer first.
    With that done you can follow these steps to get a compatible version:

  • Can i retrieve a video once i have pressed restore factory settings? My iphone used to back up when i synched it?

    I had a video of my uncle (who passed three days ago) on my old iphone. I used to synch my iphone on my windows computer and it would 'back up'. I 'restored factory settings' when i gave the iphone to my brother when i got a new one. I would really really love to be able to get this video back as it means a lot now my uncle has passed and we no longer have to opportunity to make more. Can anyone help?

    If it is not on PhotoStream and you did not backup, it is gone.

  • What is the default unlock code after updating to iOS 8

    HAving never used app store I wanted to download an app and it forced me to update the operating system.  Three hours later I had ios8.  When I turned on the iPad this morning it wants an unlock pass code. I never selected one. Have never used iTunes have never backed anything up.
    Now I can't use. What do I do . I see plug into computer dont have one this is nuts.

    IIf you see the plug into iTunes message on the iPad, unfortunately, your iPad has gone into recovery mode and has to be restored using iTunes on a computer, there is no other way to unlock your iPad now.
    SInce you are stuck anyway right now, try a reset of the device. I don't think it is going to fix things, but in the extremely unlikely event that what you are seeing in the iPad screen is a system software fluke, a reset could fix it.
    Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen. Let go of the buttons and let the iPad start up. I honesty don't hold out much hope that it will work, but it won't hurt and you are stuck anyway,
    You can restore your iPad on any computer that is running iTunes, but you are going to lose everything on the device now and since you have no backup, you have to start all over again. If you live near an Apple Store, make a Genius Bar appointment and ask them to restore the iPad for you.
    IF you are successful in restoring the iPad and need to download your content again, take a look at this.

    OK Thanks, I ended up resetting Apple TV.

  • Restoring factory settings on 2g iphone!

    I am thinking about selling my 2g iphone and getting a 3gs. If I restore the 2g to factory setting will it get rid of the latest update 3.1? If so, is there away around this or should I not care it won't have the latest update. Thanks.

    Performing a Restore will not roll back the iPhone OS/firmware. If it's on 3.1, it will stay there. If you're going to sell the older phone, your best bet is is to connect it to AC power and select Settings > General > Erase > Erase All Content and Settings. That's a secure erase of the contents (a restore is not a secure erase). It will take 1-3 hours to erase, depending on how full it is.

  • Restoring factory settings offline

    Hi Im trying to restore factory settings on my iphone to send it off for trade in but it will not allow me to do this without an internet connection. The wifi on the phone doesnt work which is why i've got a new one. Is there any way to do this offline?

    Open iTunes in your computer when it is connected to the internet.  In the view Meny chose View Sidebar.  Connect your old 4S to the computer with the USB cable.
    Once the name of the old phone appears on the sidebar, click on that name.
    You will see a tag named Summary.  Click restore and when prompted, click on restore as New.
    Wait without disconnecting your iPhone for it to start again.  Once it starts, the iPhone will show the setup menu.
    Don't forget to turn off Find my IPhone on the icloud settings first.  You will prompted to enter your Appled ID and password.  Once the Find my iPhone feature is toggled off, you can proceed to restore your iPhone.

    i just bought an ipad air ... what's the default 4 digit code to unlock the ipad? i had not had a chance to reset it yet

    There's no default 4 digit code.
    You need to force iPad into Recovery Mode. Follow step 1 to 6 very closely.
