Disabling pass code with IOS 7.1
I was planning to eliminate the password lock on my IPhone 5, however, I just updated to version 7.1 and find that the pass code lock option is no longer available under Settings>General. Why?
iPhone 5c, iOS 7.1

I don't know about 5, but my 5S has it listed under Settings>Touch ID & Passcode.
The turn off passcode option is just moved. Look, like, 3 spots down from general and it should be there
I'm pretty sure that yours would be the same .. Maybe just "passcode" instead of "Touch ID & Passcode". Once you get in there, all the options are there for "Turn Passcode Off", "Change Passcode" and when to require it and all that whatnot.
Thanks for your prompt response bcoop17. Nope, I looked all over my phone. I can't recall if I have the 5c or 5s, I think I have the 5c (whichever one had less storage and didn't have the fingerprint ID feature). There used to be an option listed right under "Auto-Lock" called "Pass Code Lock" or something similar. I distinctly remember it because I had recently set it to 4 hours which was the maximum "unlocked" period available. I also just noticed another minor change; when you bring up the song listing under "Playlists" it used to have the shuffle option right on top of the song list. Now I find that I have to tap one of the songs and start it before a "Shuffle All" button appears at the bottom of the screen. Strange.
Apple support folks, if you could shed some light on this I would really appreciate it (or anyone else for that matter). I hope you're not going to tell me I got some kind of bad update and I have to wipe everything and re-install. The Pass Code issue is one thing but was moving the shuffle feature intended as part of this update? Thanks.
Ok, this is cpadude. I just got off a chat with technical support and in case anyone else out there was wondering what I was, you have to go under "Passcode" (under Settings>General) and first type in your current passcode in order to get to the screen with the option to disable it. It used to be listed right under "Auto Lock"; they kind of hid it I think.
As far as my playlist comment, I just had not scrolled my screen down to see that the "Shuffle" option is still there. Hope I've cleared up any confusion I may have started.
It is not there. It is just NOT there. There is no passcode button. Nothing. This is upsetting!
Reset the iPhone, and try again.
Guyzz do cry please
its now under a new menu just in list of main settings under general option with a lock emblem in red colour
find it listed below general in main settings
do reply
cheers TGT
Apple is getting crazy these days 😠I am getting sick and tired of Apple. I am a Mac user since 1990. Every times you upgrade new IOS. somethings is going to happen for example. Apple forces you to buy their own charging cable and now the passcode reset is disappear ;( I bet next upgrade won't let you play any musics not purchase direct from Apple iTunes. BTW where is the touchscreen driver for Mac. 😟
