1 thru 6 deal with the lock-screen passcode and not restriction passcode that i didn't setup.
Restoring it is not an option period and seeing how didn't set it up i shouldn't have to go thru the hassle.
At the end is a paragraph:

You have no choice in the matter. You cannot reset these codes without erasing the device. You may not like that, but unfortunately that's the situation you have.
Same thing happened to me. I updated the iOS software and the next time I used it, the iPad needed a passcode that I did not set-up! Now I made it worse by guessing at the passcode and now I it is disabled.
iPad is disabled
connect to iTunes
How???
You can probably tell I am not in love with Apple . If I have to reset an lose everything, I will sell the ipad and buy a Surface Pro.
Enjoy your Surface Pro.
I screwed up and updated and now locked out of things.
