    To remove the Restrictions passcode you will need to either...

     

    Restore the Device as New...

    OR...

     

    from a Backup created Before the Restrictions Code was set....

    Force iPad into Recovery Mode to remove Restriction Passcode.

     

    1. Turn off iPad

     

    2. Connect USB cable to computer; leave the other end alone

     

    3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad

     

    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen

     

    5. Release the Home button

     

    6. Open iTune (make sure you have the newest version of iTune)

     

    7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"

     

    8. Use iTune to restore iPad

     

     

    Note: Data will be lost if you have no backup

    DO you know how to change the code but still have your original content and apps?
