Forgotten Passcode

If your iPad is disabled, or you have forgotten your iPad passcode, you’ll need to follow this process:

You’ll need access to either a PC (with iTunes installed) or a Mac (with iTunes or Finder - as appropriate for the installed version of MacOS).

You’ll also need your AppleID and associated password. If these have also been forgotten, they can be recovered here:

To recover your credentials, you’ll need access to one of the following:

• Your primary email address mailbox that corresponds with your AppleID
• Any of the secondary/recovery email addresses that should be configured for your AppleID account
• Any of the trusted telephone numbers (fixed line or Cellular/Mobile) that are associated with your AppleID

Unless you AppleID account has not been fully/correctly configured, or has been seriously neglected, recovery of the AppleID and password should not be difficult.

When you recover access to your credentials, you would be well advised to log-in to your AppleID account from a web browser - and verify/update any email addresses and trusted telephone numbers:

Hi NaeemUF,

It's not possible to unlock it if you forgot your iPad password. You can restore your iPad using iTunes by connecting your iPad, hold the power button and home button together & wait around 1 minute1 for your iPad to enter 'Recovery mode', and follow the steps on iTunes. Please be informed that all your date WILL BE deleted as well, but you can restore your files by clicking 'Restore from iCloud' during setup. (Depending on the last time you backup your data)

Once it's finished restore, your iPad will go through the setup phase because your iPad will be as good as new, Also that your Apple ID is still signed in on your iPad. You will be required to enter your Apple ID & password during setup.
