If you own an iPod touch, you have the option to set a password, which Apple calls a passcode, to protect your data. Anyone who attempts to access your iPod, after unlocking it or turning it on, will require the passcode to do so. However, if you forget your passcode or incorrectly enter it, you will eventually see an alert that your iPod touch has become disabled. To unlock your iPod touch after forgetting the passcode, and still access your content, you must connect it to the computer with which you last synced it.

Connect your iPod touch to the computer with which you last synced the music player. Launch iTunes if it does not automatically open. Select your iPod touch under the devices list, and click the "Summary" tab in iTunes. Click "Restore" and, when prompted, click the "Back Up" button to save a back up of your iPod touch in iTunes. Click "Restore" when prompted, after the back up saves. After restoring, click "Ok." Choose the most recent back up from the drop down list on the "Set Up Your iPod" screen. Click the "Continue" button to restore your iPod touch.

Svga vlp - es5 projector control key locked problem

Hello
Your projector is in security lock Enabled condition. If you have forgot the pascode . You can change the password by
Use the Menu'UP'/'Down' '<'/'>' buttons to enter the four digit pascode. The default password is "ENTER,ENTER,ENTER, ENTER". After this is entered, you can put in a new pasword. Therefore when you use this function for the first time, pleas input "ENTER" four times.
To cancel the security lock, press the Menu key, then turn OFF the "Security Lock" setting on the INSTALL SETTING menu.
If you call the customer service center because you have forgotten the password, you will need to be able to veryfy the projectors' serial number and your identity. The process may differ in other countries/regions. Once your identity has been confirmed, they will provide you a password. OK.
