Mar 10, 2014 10:37 PM in response to KDFriendlyby tvchopper,Excellent work, KDFriendly.
Your advice was the only useful post in the flurry of "me-too", "mebbe-thisll-work" and general panic and confusion.
I often ask myself why it is that smart users have to supply fellow users with the definitive answer. I'm guessing that the answer is that it saves Apple a bomb writing and maintaining decent documentation, but it is annoying.
And before somebody ascends the high-horse about me being a Apple-hater: I live in a 2 person house-hold and between us we have 2 iphones, 2 ipads and 5 Macs (don't ask...)
Thanks!

Apr 23, 2014 9:41 PM in response to tomerbarby joshmilne112,i hate apple now its been a month since i last used my ipad and just before then i changed my password. I booked a apointment for the apple store. this just saved me a trip to the apple store for some they put me through to use something i payed for. (i love my ipod because if i get the password wrong it locks it helps me get into it with my email not just locks me out whanting me to put somthing i dont know into it)

May 20, 2014 3:19 PM in response to jeanpierre1905by BingoBingoBingoBingo,I needed to do a restore from backup on my iPhone 5 and I know all the security passwords and iTunes passwords. But even after removing it from my iCloud find my iPhone devices, I found that I could not turn off "Find My IPhone" on the iPhone in Settings (it was greyed out).
As it turns out, when I first got this phone I had read an article on security settings and had set a Restriction to not allow changes to the Location Services settings (of which the toggle for Find my iPhone is one).
Go to Settings > General > Restrictions and enter your 4-digit security code. Scroll down to "require password for purchases" and if there is a little padlock there hi "Location Services" and then "allow changes" to disable the restriction against allowing changes to the find my iPhone setting. Then go into Settings > Privacy > Location Services and toggle off the Find my iPhone for this phone. With is finally off, I was able to connect to iTunes and restore from a backup. I then went back and enabled Find My iPhone again on the phone and on on iCloud
