The following procedure details the process to Hard Reset your NOOKcolor device. Doing so will perform a factory reset of the NOOKcolor which de-registers your device as well as erases all local content such as contacts, sideloaded documents, personal information, 4 digit passcodes, etc. 1.Ensure your NOOKcolor is powered off; to do so, depress the power button for 5 seconds. Your LCD screen should turn off
2.With your NOOKcolor powered off, Hold the Home Key (NOOK "n," logo below the LCD), while simultaneously depressing the Power Button for up to 25 seconds.
3. Your NOOKcolor will begin the start up process, Do NOT let go until a confirmation window appears asking if you would like to, "Factory Reset Your Device?" This will De-Register as well as erase all content and information on your NOOKcolor (Including the 4 Digit Pass-code
4. Depress the Home Key to continue with the Factory Reset
5. Depress the Home Key again to Confirm
6. Your device will now begin the clearing process. Upon completion you will regain access to your NOOKcolor however all account and personal information (email, contacts, pass-code, credit card, etc..) will be deleted from your device. You will then be able to Re-Register your NOOKcolor and start anew. Good luck!! EJ Kudelka

Reset 4 digit lock code for iPad 2

Hi John,

If you cannot remember your lock code, you will need to restore your device as new or be able to restore a backup if you cannot remember your lock code.

If you do remember your lock code you can update it in the settings app:

Click on Settings and then scroll down to the Passcode option (you may have to scroll down a bit). This will bring you to the Passcode Lock menu where you can turn off or update your lock code.

Hope that helps!

Cant remember my passcode for my ipad

plug it into the original computer that you set it up with and through itunes you will be able to reset it. Once the ipod appears under devices click on the restore button it will indicate that you can restore settings etc. If it is not the original computer that you are using you will be able to reset it but will lose the information on it. Hope this helps.
