i forgot my passcode

Restore your phone from backup, on the last computer your phone synced with, this will remove the passcode.

what would youh do if u forgot youh password on your ipod ?

abbey10,

Same process as with an iPhone. See wjosten's comment.

Hope this helps,

O.C.

Did the restore process but the Ipod still wants a paddcode to unlock the keyboard?

You have to restore the phone using the computer you last synced the iPod with.

I ran the restpre program with the ONLY computer I have and no removal of the passcode on the I Pod!

I have found a way to change the restrictions without the code. I downloaded iBackupBot, which allows you to open and edit your backup files. Back up your iphone using itunes. Open the back up with ibackupBot and find library/configurationprofiles/usersettings.plist. Double clicking this will open a window (click cancel if a registration window comes up). This lists all the restrictions on your phone (eg allowitunes and allowappinstallation etc) followed by a value (true or false). Change the restrictions you want (on or off) by deleting the true/false and replacing it. Also edit library/configurationprofiles/public info/effectiveusersettings.plist click save. Then restore your iphone from backup. It changes the settings without ever needing the passcode (which still won’t work). Hope this helps.

ps works on iOS 5.0.1, not jailbroken

Interesting, but nothing to do with the topic of this thread. We are discussing removing a forgotten passcode lock to unlock the phone itself - not removing restrictions.

Problem is, that this Computer is not availabel
