Why wont simple password work locked out?

I  changed the simple password from the 4 digit option in general settings and restarted my ipod touch 2 gen and when the locak screen came up it didnt have the the four digit option it had the keyboard. I typed my four digit password and now Im locked out any idea why this happend?
Any help would be very helpful and is anyone else had this problem?
Thanks

I would just connect the iPod to its syncing computer and restore the iPod. I iTunes asks for the passcode and you can't enter the passcoe, place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore the iPod. For recvery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
It appears that your passcode and other than simple digets since the keyboard only comes up if you have non-simple digets even if you have the non-simple passcode off.

  • Why wont google toolbar work with fire fox 5????? also how can i get firefox 4 back so i can use the toolbar???

    Hello,my question is why wont google toolbar work with firefox 5?????
    Also how can i get firefox 4 back so i can use the toolbar???

    This page is an easier way to download Firefox 4.0: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/products/download.html?product=firefox-4.0&os=win&lang=en-US , as this links starts the download process asap.
    I needed to upgrade to Firefox 4.0+ for an add-on that I really needed. However, I can't use Firefox 5.0, as I randomly checked 3 add-on's I had: "Firefox PDF", "Delicious Bookmarks" and "After the Deadline", and none of them worked with Firefox 5.0. In fact, I will have to download alpha versions, etc., to get these add-ons to work with Firefox 4.0.

  • Why wont my volume work on my iPhone 4s?

    why wont my volume work on my iPhone 4s?

    Hey Chelsreb,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with your iPhone 4s. The following resource may provide a solution:
    iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5180
    1. Verify that the volume is set to a level you would normally be able to hear.
    2. Ensure that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack or the dock connector.
    3. If the iPhone is in a protective case, make sure that the speaker port isn't blocked by the case.
    4. Make sure that the speaker and dock port aren't clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush. Carefully and gently brush away any debris.
    5. If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.
    6. If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or car kit:
              - Try turning off Bluetooth.
              - If you experience difficulties with the Bluetooth feature, follow these troubleshooting steps.
    7. Restart the iPhone.
    8. If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.
    9. If the issue is not resolved after restoring the iPhone software, please contact Apple Support.
    If the issue persists, please follow the last step by contacting Apple Support for support and service options.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Why was "Mail not remembering passwords" thread locked out?

    The problem wasn't resolved, yet the thread has been locked out! Does Apple monitor this board? If so, could someone from Apple at least acknowledge that there is a Mail-related problem and that someone is looking into it? The problem wasn't resolved with the latest Leopard release and even a cursory reading through the aforementioned thread reveals a lot of very frustrated users!

    I had the same problem every once in a while with Tiger and now with Leopard. Sometimes, it works properly, i.e. remembering the passord. Sometimes, I am asked for my password repeatedly whether I check the "save" box. I have two different e-mail providers (gmail.com and gmx.net). I only get the troubles with the second one from time to time over a period of time.
    I could "fix" it with the following workaround:
    Mail > Preferences > General > Check for new mail: every 5 minutes.
    Before, I had had set it to "check every 1 minute" what often resulted in the "loss" of the password.

  • Unity Connection - Users with system default password getting locked out

    Hi all, hope everyone is well !!
    I am experiencing a strange problem and hope someone can give me some direction on where to start digging on this issue.
    I am getting a good number of users reporting they are getting locked out of their voice mail and they all claim that they have not changed their password and some user even got their greeting recorded by someone else. One thing in common for the users who reported the issue is that they all using the system default password. I am trying to trace to find out who/what has access to these users' mailbox but so far I have not had any luck.
    Thanks in advance !!
    Danny

    Thanks, yes am doing that now and cant really find any new/unique pattern. Plus the trace is pretty hard to follow. Cant really figure out any times stamps in the trace also. The current trace file is defaultTrace.18.trc and it has very simiiar content as some of the older ones before the problem. Right now the ESS portal is working and the slddsuser password is not locked. It seems the problem takes place on start up?
    /usr/sap/ESS/JC77/j2ee/cluster/server0/log
    Tough thing to test in production.
    I wonder what takes place at startup that would kick this problem off?

  • TS1424 Apple's "I forgot' not working, locked out, any solutions?

    Can't remember password to sign out of iTunes on ipad on old account & login under newer account; apple's "I forgot" says it's sending reset emails, but I never get them & it won't accept my security question answers. Please help!
    I can logout of iTunes, but when I try to buy something, the old account keeps popping up on iTunes signin.

    You didn't say what operating system you have. If OS X 10.6 or earlier, see this (you'll need your original OS X DVD that came with the system or a retail OS X DVD). If 10.7 or later, see this.

  • HP Touchsmart 600-1047 - Password does not work - Locked out

    I read all the posts and did not find this particular issue. I powered down my PC, unplugged it, and pushed the power button to remove all electricity. Turned it on, chose my user account, and entered my password. I know I am entering the correct password because I has just used it 15 minutes prior, however, it will not accept that password. I cannot perform the change password because my cd/dvd drive does not work and I do not have a disk anyway. Please help!!! Thank you!

    Hello msnhra31.
                This is bummer. You need to do a factory restore.  Because you can not excess any Windows. Turn on your computer and tap your f-11 key. This will automatically start your recovery manger.  Use a simpler pass word when you reset up your computer.  Make it so you do not accidentally hit other keys while typing in your new pass word.  If your cd/dvd drive was working you are given that option to back up your personnel files. Are you sure it does not work. These computers are fussy and only use Memory EX Cd-R / DVR discs. They won't play DVD's movies or open up software disks. Unless it has certain codes. I purchased an usb cd/dvd drive witch cost alot less then purchasing the update for hp's player. If your computer's cd/dvd (optical drive) is bad I recommend you to buy an usb external hard drive. That way you will always have your personnel stuff stored on it.
              Have fun restoring your computer. At first it will be unstable until it downloads 244 updates so bare with it.  Your Internet Explorer 8 will defiantly be hard to use because we currently on Internet Explorer 11-12 . So I recommend to down load fire fox to use until your windows gets updated.

    Do you have an active Internet Connection?
    You need to Sign In to the program with your Adobe ID and password otherwise the program will not work.
    http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/12/pe12-adobe-idpassword-requirement-for.html
    Please check out the above in that regard, although, from what you wrote, you "signed in". It includes a description of a problem that I had with Sign In dialog.
    Since you are having difficulties using Premiere Elements 9 or 12 on your computer, this suggests that the problem may be in the computer.
    1. What computer operating system is your computing running on? Please describe it resources?
    2. What video card/graphics card is your computer using? Is it using 2?
    3. Are you running the program as Run As Administrator and from a User Account with Administrative Privileges?
    4. Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements 12? Is Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 still installed on this same computer?
    5. Do you have 3rd party plug-ins and codecs installed on this computer? In reviewing your installed programs, do you see any likely candidates for conflicting programs?
    6. You say that Premiere Elements 9 was a "bust also". Did you troubleshoot that at the time and what were you told were your problems? Or was that never defined?
    Please check out the above and then let us know if any of it applies to your situation.
    Thanks.

  • Why wont this script work???

    Hi,
    I have previously used this script to make a portrait scroll bar which works perfectly, however i have altered the script to work in a landscape scroll bar by altering the x and y axis and switching out the height for width. However a part of it wont work...The left and right arrows work correctly however the scroll bar does not move and I can not for the life of me figure out why.
    Does anyone have any ideas as to what ive missed or done wrong?
    Thanks in advance
    scrolling = function () {

    sorry should have said...its the aspect relating to "scrollFace" which is mentioned throughout..ive marked it out in bold and taken out anything unrelivant.

    So its:
