Mar 11, 2014 2:34 AM in response to Richs79by patrick maglanque,Same problem. Try going to:
Settings
General
Passcode Lock ((put your current passcode))
scroll until you reach "Erase Data"
enable it
play with wrong passcodes then it will erase all data after 10 failed passcode attempts
Don't worry, there's still a data protection.
***Hope this helps***

Mar 22, 2014 4:04 PM in response to Richs79by zjgrant,So I don't know if this is going to help anyone or not...but I originally looked up this post because I was trying to change the settings on my son's iPhone and when I put in his passcode in the restrictions window, it did the same thing and told me it was the wrong passcode. After several tries and and getting locked out a few times, it dawned on me that while I was using the same code he uses on the lock screen, that was not the original code we set up when we got the phone. I entered the original passcode we used when we first set up the phone and that was the correct passcode to make the changes in the restrictions screen. I had forgotten that we had a code before the current one.
Like I said, not sure if that helps anyone...good luck!

Mar 30, 2014 6:46 AM in response to iqblsyqrnby Lawrence Finch,On the phone go to Settings/iCloud and turn off Find my iPhone. You will need your Apple ID and password that you used to turn it on.
Or open a browser and go to https://icloud.com/find log in with your Apple ID and password, click on your iPhone, wipe it, then remove it from the account.

Apr 1, 2014 10:15 AM in response to MillValleyiMacG5by juanvillamil,I did not have a restriction code, then the resource com.apple.restrictionspassword.plist :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict/>
</plist>
I tried change the restriction passcode to 1234, and now: (in bold)
........
<dict>
<key>RestrictionsPasswordKey</key>
<data>
S6PcLATheGi4xsdSmsVplFDFhjI=
</data>
<key>RestrictionsPasswordSalt</key>
<data>
6rqQuw==
</data>
</dict>
.....
I remove the restriction key, and I set the key 1234 again:
......
<dict>
<key>RestrictionsPasswordKey</key>
<data>
W53yNhyVx4lOF8ibsGDxpI0VOfk=
</data>
<key>RestrictionsPasswordSalt</key>
<data>
Ag/X9g==
</data>
</dict>
.......
The value of <RestrictionsPasswordKey> and <RestrictionsPasswordSalt> are different, but the key is the same 1234.
If I fail by entering the code, I get : 1 failed attempt
I can see this on the resource com.apple.springboard.plist
<key>SBParentalControlsFailedAttempts</key>
<integer>1</integer>
iPhone 5, iOS 7.0.4

Apr 7, 2014 3:19 PM in response to Richs79by Kisselh,One way would would to out your phone in DFU or recovery mode. You can look up on youtube how to do that using keyword how to out phone into DFU mode. Once you do that you can restore your phone to the latest backup or set it up as a new phone.
Hope that helped
