The only way to reset the Restrictions passcode is to Restore the phone using iTunes and set it up as New. You cannot restore the backup, as that will also restore the Restrictions passcode.
Hello Lawrence,
Thank you for responding, will give it a go. Just not sure about Contacts and Apps - how would I re-install those w/ousing last iPhone back up?
Thanks much!
You can redownload the apps from iTunes, but you will have to add the contacts manually, unless they were stored somewhere other than the iPhone backup.
