how many backups do you have?

do you have one without the passcode lock?

From my knowledge I only have the 1 latest back up which shows in itunes when i try to restore. I am assuming itunes overwrites the previous ones?

i found a way to have access to your iPad 2, so you can use it.

i tested it out, so it works.

although you can fully use your iPad 2, you will need to remember that password, to turn it off in the settings app.

for this to work, you must have FaceTime activated already on your iPad 2, and just simply FaceTime your iPad 2 from another iDevice with FaceTime or a Mac computer that have FaceTime activated, in which the other device will add you as a contact and FaceTime your iPad 2, and you answer the FaceTime call, and press the home button, and you will have access to your device, and then choose end call after.

please take into consideration, you should be where your device have/had access to wifi before and is connected for this to work.

I think that method is a no go as I did not have face time activited on my Ipad2. It is on a wireless network though.

Thanks

dont do this, i tested this out with (iPod touch 3rd), when i restarted, i still had passcode lock screen, and wifi was turned off(you don't need this to happen right now), i think it cleared the wifi password. Weird thing is, although i deleted that file, when i restarted and ssh back into device, a new one was there.

that was an awesome guaranteed access to your iPad 2.

now we have to figure something else out, cool.

i seen this one, didn't test it yet. Kinda similar, just restrictions passcode recovery, i would think its really close to what you want.

pretty sure he is editing the backup for the device.

Q: Where are these backups stored?

A: By default, backups are stored in the following folders:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

view fullscreen...

pause video at 0:28 and look at #11.

i am using a Mac, should be similar....i do have a pc in the home, last resort.

edit: i did download plist editor pro, and tried the same in video, not successful yet for passcode lock, but i did see my parental restrictions password(a 4 digit), and continued digging thru more files and seen another password(letters) and also my wifi login password.
so there is light, just gotta find it.

if you try it, do the parental restrictions search, locate the password, and that might be the passcode lock.
the file number is 662bc19b13aecef58a7e855d0316e4cf61e2642b search that one.

I have just tried the parental restriction password but it is not the one I can not seem to find the passkey section as per the Utube Vid...... :-(

We seem so close yet so far...........

Let me know if you do find where it is located as I have exhausted most files and can not locate it!!

Thanks for the help buddy

Guys, I have just deleted the last two posts as they are off topic and a little bit of searching would reveal that we already have a thread, started today, on that particular subject.

I have some good news of my own.........I had some time on my hands today and sat down with my son to go through some passcodes!!!!

He was 100% confident that his passcode began with the number 2 so we started with 2000!!!!!!!!!! 546 entries later we hit the jackpot and managed to unlock my device!!!

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all that have helped and made a newbie like me feel a part of this community.

Now I need to know if there is a way I can save my SHSH blobs for my 4.3.3.

I think I will post this as another topic.

Thank you all again guys and gals..........
