If you forgot iPad password, there still are several methods to unlock iPad. Here take one of them as an instance.

If you've neither synced with iTunes nor set up Find My iPhone in iCloud, you'll need to wipe your iPad to factory setting to remove the password, which means you'll suffer losing all your data on iPad and get it as a new one.
Please pay attention there is a slight difference in putting different models of iPad into recovery mode.
iPad Air

  • 1. Turn off your iPad Air, press and hold the Home button.
  • 2. While holding the Home key, connect the USB cable to the device. Wait until the Apple logo appears and keep holding the Home button for few more seconds.
  • 3. Continue holding the Home button until the iTunes logo appears.
iPad mini/iPad pro
  • 1. Connect your iPad to your computer or laptop and open iTunes.
  • 2. While your device is connected, force to restart it.
  • 3. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. Don't release when you see the Apple logo. Keep holding both buttons until you see the recovery mode screen.
Now you have entered the recovery mode, and

1. When you see the option to Restore and Update, click it.

2. Wait for the process to finish. Then you can set up and use your device.

SOURCE: Ipad disabled b/c son forgot his password...help us get in?

If your son cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your iPad using the computer you last synced your iPad with. Using the last computer you synced with allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync all your data, apps, etc.


To begin the process, connect the iPad to your computer using the USB cable or lightning cable. Open iTunes and select the restore option.

If you restore on another computer, you can still unlock the device and remove the passcode, but your data and apps will be wiped.


Hope that helps!

My daughter forgot her iPad screen lock. How do I reset it?

If you have forgotten the screen passcode, you'll need a computer to restore your iPad as long as you have synchronized your device with the computer. You can reset your passcode and resynchronize the data from the device or restore it from an iCloud backup.

If you are using another computer that you never synchronized the iPad with, you will only be able to unlock the device and you will lose the data on the iPad.

Here's also a guide for your reference.

Don't remember password for ipad

You don't need to know your password for the iPad. As long as you know the password for your iTunes account, you used to setup the account on the iPad for. Connect the iPad with the computer and open iTunes and give in the password for the iTunes account. Apple will unlock the iPad and you can setup a new pass code for the iPad.
When you forgot your iTunes password, you have to contact Apple and prove you are the legal owner of the account.

I forgot my ipad code

If you have an iPad with iOS 7, you can't open the iPad. After you put in the wrong pass code 3 times, you only can unlock the iPad with the correct password, belonging to the Apple ID from what only a part is shown on the screen. If you don't have the passcode nor the password Apple assumes you are not the legal owner, and you can't use the iPad anymore. If you goto an Apple store and take your iPad and the invoice with you and some ID, so you can prove you are the owner, perhaps they can help. But if you can't prove the iPad is yours, don't go there, they will not help.

Forgot password code for iPad to fire it up

You will need to restore the device if you cannot remember your password. Just connect the iPad to your computer, open iTunes and select the restore option. Be aware this will erase the data on the iPad, but as far as I know you cannot unlock it without the password.

Hopefully you have a recent backup and then can just put the data back once it's been restored.

Hope that helps!
