Also consider... Trying This...


Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...


Reset ( No Data will be Lost )


Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...


Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...


Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer..)


Release the Buttons...

I do have 'restrictions' set but can't remember my passcode to check/change restrictions.


To remove a forgotten Restrictions passcode you will need to either...


1) Restore the Device as New... See Section 6 here...

OR...


2) From a Backup created Before the Restrictions Code was set....
