IPhone :: IOS 5.1 Update Set Restrictions, How To Recover
May 6, 2012
I just updated my iPhone 3GS from iOS 4.3.5 to 5.1, and now Restrictions are set to "On". That was definitely not the case before I updated, and I do not know the 4-digit passcode to disable. Two questions: How do I turn off Restrictions without re-installing the OS? The upgrade to 5.1 took nearly 15 hours (a nearly full 32GB iPhone) and tied up the family iMac (late-2010 model 27" Core i7 quad-processor) for the entire time — I do not want to that again, especially if I cannot be guaranteed that Restrictions won't end up locked again.What happens if I keep trying different passcodes — is there a limit on the number of attempts? If so, what happens when that limit is reached? Additional info: not using iCloud; mail, contact, calendars still set to sync to MobileMe; everything else syncs via iTunes on the iMac.
I need to restore my phone and update iTunes. I think I need to take restrictions off but I forgot passcode.I can't even restore the phone to factory settings without entering passcode. How can I do this?My phone has so many capabilities but I cannot utilize them
When i updated my new iPhone OS to the new system, i had to end up doing a restore. This wiped out all my info and while i have a backup on the computer. I can seem to find a way to recover old text messages via the iMessage platform. Is there any way to recover some of those old conversations? Some have sentimental value to them.
How to recover data lost during software update. iPhone asked for software update. I agreed without a recent backup to iTunes or iCloud. After finishing update requested iTunes. I had to use restore in old back up and I lost my recent data. How can I retrieve them?
My husband locked my restrictions under the settings app and has forgotten what the pass code is. Is there any way to reset the restrictions pass code with out resetting the whole phone? And if I did have to reset the whole phone will it for sure unlock the restrictions?
Try to enable restictions on iphone 4s. After I enter the password twice. The choices are dim and I am not able to change which apps i want to restrict.
I need to know whether or not an app is allowed to use the FaceTime function within it. Just as an example, let's say one creates an app where you pay (or not) to talk to a person using FaceTime (let's say ChatRoulette-like, but with an actual purpose); is that permissible?
I enabled Restrictions on my kid's iPhones and failed to write it down... Is it possible to reset it? If it take it to an Apple or AT&T store, can they?
I will go to settings, general, reset, erase all content and settings, enteer my passcode, than it asks me for my restrictions passcode which i didnt even make? This is a iphone 1st generation but works great besides this.
I have forgotten my restrictions passcode. I reset my phone (iphone 6 ) using icloud and find my phone, however it has simply re-restored the mystery passcode.Â
parental restrictions password was set on my 4S, and now wanting to take them off, but the problem is, i have forgotten the password. The bigger problem with this is that my macbook got a new harddrive so i can not restore from a previous back-up before the restrictions and i do not want to reset from factory settings as i will have nothing and no way of getting anything back.
I want to remove the restrictions from my iPhone but I don't want to restore it because that would mean losing half of the things on my phone. I have already tried recovring the password using iPhone Backup Extractor but when I try to open the com.apple.springboard.plist file it shows up in TextEdit.
