Sep 24, 2013 2:56 AM in response to gilsonmeloby thomryhenas,Hey thanks. Found your fix using iBackupBot and tho it's out of my league changing/adding codes it has worked and broke the deadlock.
Problem was ipad taking on ios7 and switching on find my iphone, given a prompt to enter 4 digit passcde twice and then that number not working on re-activating. Saw many with same problem. My wifes a happy bunny again.

Sep 24, 2013 3:37 AM in response to gilsonmeloby gustavomarcolla,Hey Gilson,
I guess I'm not fortunate as you guys. I followed the steps and when I tried to restore from backup it says the backup was corrupted.
Now I cant even access my old back locked up.
This what I have on Ibackupbot prefferences list:

Sep 24, 2013 11:23 AM in response to gilsonmeloby Redski,Hi gilsonmelo ...
Just wanted to say a big thank you for the comprehensive, yet concise explanation of how to solve the issue !
Awesome job ... worked perfectly for me. I got the error that I couldn't Restore From Backup as Find My iPhone needed to be switched off, so as per instructions ... I put the phone into Recovery Mode and then Backed Up and it worked perfectly.
Restrictions Code successfully set to 1234 and all working as it should now.
Thank you so much - really appreciate it !

Sep 24, 2013 12:35 PM in response to StephRi0sby rachelnelsonsmith,Thanks, StephRi0s! That was exactly what I needed. Even as it was locked, it could be completely backed up before using your measures to erase. It didn’t even matter I was disapointed at first when talking to AT&T tech support about having to erase the phone!

Sep 24, 2013 2:49 PM in response to Richs79by Wiffster33,Hi everyone. I just upgraded from a 4s to a 5s. The sim on my 4s is disabled as I am now using my new phone. I am trying to wipe my old phone and am getting the same issues with not being able to successfully enter a reset password. I would wipe using find my phone but it isn't working as there is no carrier signal.
I also do not have a PC.
All I want to do is wipe the phone so I can sell it.
Any suggestions?

Sep 27, 2013 11:57 AM in response to Richs79by nimebejo,I've never tested the "Erase Data" security feature. Does it reset the phone or just just delete data from the installed apps? I would think it would reset the phone, but maybe not. Here's something someone could try if all else fails. I haven't tried it. No idea if it would work.
1. In Settings -> General -> Passcode (& Fingerprint), go to the bottom and toggle the Erase Data setting to on.
2. Lock your phone.
3. Press the home button to wake your phone.
4. On the unlock screen, type an incorrect passcode 10 times.

Sep 30, 2013 9:01 AM in response to Richs79by Damienmex,Hi Gilsonmelo,
I have the same problem with the restrictions on ios 7, so i try to fix it your way. but i can't do it. when i want to save the changes you did, it appears " encontered misformated real on line 12", and i cannot save.
do you know what is going wrong ?
-
Sep 30, 2013 9:24 AM in response to Damienmexby gilsonmelo,based on the error message you described above, my best guess is that you didn't copy/paste the info as I mentioned.
I made the highlighted changes below:
<key>SBParentalControlsBlockTimeIntervalSinceReferenceDate</key>
<real>362258969.244102</real>
<key>SBParentalControlsEnabled</key>
<false/>
<key>SBParentalControlsFailedAttempts</key>
<integer>0</integer>
<key>SBParentalControlsMCContentRestrictions</key>
<dict>
<key>countryCode</key>
<string>us</string>
</dict>
<key>SBParentalControlsPIN</key>
<string>1234</string>
make sure you you add SBParentalControlsPIN under /dict as shown above and set SBParentalControlsEnabled to false. Review what's is written above and try again. That worked for me and for other people as well.
Hope this helps

Oct 1, 2013 7:55 AM in response to Richs79by 3r4y,I've recently enter my Restriction Code to turn OFF the delete apps function on my iphone. After I'd upated to 7.1, I enter the restricted code to turn ON some restriction and notice my Code was't working. I'd alway use the same old password!!! As for today its my 20th try. How could i forgoting my code in a few days.
-
Oct 1, 2013 10:49 PM in response to StuartHby superdigital,Excellent point, sounds like the solution. It had seemed like a good idea to set the Restrictions passcode, but it's locked me out of Messages and FaceTime, even after upgrade and restore as we know. I've changed my passwords as per normal, and find I'm now locked out of Mail.

Oct 2, 2013 12:02 AM in response to superdigitalby Redski,Anyone with this Restrictions Code issue, just try Gilsonmelo's excellent step by step instructions as it'll get the job done !
Thanks very much for the excellent tutorial & fix !

Oct 2, 2013 11:03 AM in response to StuartHby superdigital,This worked perfectly, I have my iCloud data and got finally rid off notifications from apps I don't care about. Thank you for suggestion!
