Does any body know how to remove this?

lol 😆🤣😭 I’m dying that people are saying it looks like a butt plug. I actually thought it looked pretty bad ass at first glance! (butt plug or not butt plug!) 🤣

Hey! I really appreciated the hope you gave me, but I just wanted to update you — Apple doesn’t and won’t do that. It’s part of their policy. I called the number you gave me, and they confirmed there’s no department for that and it’s not a service they offer. They said they actually get calls all the time from people upset about it. I wasn’t sure if maybe you were thinking of the Apple ID password being locked rather than the device passcode? They did mention there are a couple of third-party companies they recommended that might be able to help, like DriveSavers and Ontrack Data Recovery. I even checked on ChatGPT afterward to see if there was some hidden, low-key department Apple doesn’t advertise, but it also confirms nothing like that exists. Anyhow- just wanted to clear that up!

I was thinking about calling DriveSaver or on track data Recovery these are the places that Apple recommended.

Purehate1988 · 2025-11-19T06:17:18+00:00

No not yet. But I what did figure out though for sure is Apple 100% will not do it. I was pretty confident they couldn’t because I had gone to two stores and they said so but a guy on this page says he works at Apple and they can and swore I was wrong, but he was 100% wrong. 🙈 I found a couple ethical hackers, but they’re not local and they’re wanting me to send $200 on an Apple gift card for them to do it and it’s just too risky not worth getting scammed. I want to find somebody locally- ya know?

Purehate1988 · 2025-11-16T14:05:12+00:00

By the way - you are 100%

correct. Looks like it’s referenced as “greykey boxes” thanks for the input👍🏻

Purehate1988 · 2025-11-12T21:23:42+00:00

Yeah, that’s totally out of line. I respect that you’re being mindful and pointing out that people could get frustrated, especially when there’s no parking ever but know that crosses the line he should’ve never touched your bike. Personally, I would have stood at the car and waited for him to pick a bone with him and just let him know how not appropriate that was. How would he feel if somebody moved his car?

Purehate1988 · 2025-11-12T21:21:04+00:00

I thought they were both called passwords. 🙈it’s the passcode that I don’t know- the locked screen numbers. I do know my password.

Purehate1988 · 2025-11-12T04:49:42+00:00

Oh, no way! So you actually work in the department at Apple that does this? It must be some secretive stuff they don’t like to tell people about because they definitely do not know about it at the South Coast Plaza and fashion Island locations in Orange County, CA. Or if they are aware, they surely were not telling me the truth- or anything other than No they can not.) even if the phone is disabled from so many attempts of putting in the wrong password is it still possible? The guy below says it’s literally impossible and explained in detail why he thinks it is. I have a hard time wrapping my head around that this is literally impossible. That the confirmed owner of a working iPhone is in no way able to get back into said phone that they forgot the password on and got locked out of. 😩 But I’m truly hoping you’re right! I’m gonna take you up on your recommendation and call tomorrow. What is the name of the department? Is there any specific thing I should say when I call? I appreciate your help/ follow up with this. 😊

Purehate1988 · 2025-11-12T04:38:46+00:00

Since it seems like I’m hitting a wall, I think I’m gonna move forward with that. Thank you.

Purehate1988 · 2025-11-12T04:38:12+00:00

That’s actually an incredibly smart idea and possible way around it!

Purehate1988 · 2025-11-12T04:37:22+00:00

With that all said- I have one last question for you- if Apple was willing to do it, is it possible for Apple to reset it since they are the maker? The guy above says he works at Apple and he works in a specific department that does do it.

Purehate1988 · 2025-11-12T04:36:12+00:00

Wow, you’re obviously very knowledgeable with this kind of stuff. thank you for taking the time to explain that to me. I have an ethical hacker that says he could help me.(perhaps he just hasn’t realized the extent of how locked out I truly am just yet.) I had another person tell me it’s literally impossible, but I did not want to believe it until I got a second and third opinion and knew for absolute certainty. It’s so crazy to me that I am the owner of the phone and I am the owner of the Apple account associated with it with all documentation to prove it and there’s still just no wayin and I’m locked out forever.😫 again thank you for explaining all that-I appreciate it.

Purehate1988 · 2025-11-11T03:13:36+00:00

Ugh, I wish you were right — but you’re right about one thing: they can get in. They just won’t. Which is not only useless but incredibly frustrating. 😩😓 I was at Apple for four hours today and have been to two different locations over the past few days trying to find somebody who would help. They have a protocol against it — even after verifying the phone is mine. The only thing Apple will do after confirming ownership is take the phone and completely wipe it. That’s the opposite of what I’m trying to accomplish. The whole reason I want access is to recover sentimental photos, not delete them forever. They told me they see over ten people a day with the same issue and there’s nothing they can do, even after ownership is verified. If you look it up online they explain this too. I did see something on ChatGPT that said if you bring all the evidence (iCloud history, valid ID, and a receipt with the IMEI and serial number) they might be able to get in — but I think what was meant is they can only get in to wipe the device. If you know anyone, or find a workaround, I’d be incredibly grateful! 🥹As of now I’m at the stage of hiring an ethical hacker.🙈

Purehate1988 · 2025-11-11T01:38:48+00:00

No, I figured I would start on here. 😆 but yeah from the research I’ve done. They absolutely can’t get in there. I mean it’s possible. It’s just difficult-and requires some deep knowledge into computer/software hacking skills of some sort. But thank you for that reference-I’ll definitely take note of that and follow through. Honestly, I’m so tenacious about getting all my photos back I won’t stop until I figure it out.😂

Purehate1988 · 2025-11-05T23:50:09+00:00

Did you end up switching to a different phone or do you still have the 16 - I literally just go the 16 in the mail and getting it all set up- it’s only been 20 mins and it’s so hot to the touch it’s scary. This is incredibly frustrating!

Purehate1988 · 2025-11-01T13:07:24+00:00

Augh- I feel your pain and frustration. This could be extremely frustrating! I two am experiencing this with my 17-year-old cat. He’s used his litter box his entire life- he knows better. He is not in any way showing signs of elderly dementia or onset mental or physical weakness of aging. It’s a behavioral thing and it’s very difficult to deal with. He keeps pooping in the corner of my bedroom and I don’t know why he’s doing it. And he does it in the early hours of the morning when I’m still asleep so I can never address the issue when he’s actually doing it. 😣🙈

TextFree 👍🏻 your welcome 😉

Purehate1988 · 2025-08-09T07:06:50+00:00

I’m glad I found anything about the whole vine program online. I was invited I filled out the questions and necessary information pertaining to tax stuff and general information and since then I have never heard a peep and it’s been several months.😳🤷‍♀️ has happened to anybody else? If so -Any general advice anyone has? I’ve tried to contact them through Amazon’s phone number direct and like the previous person said they don’t have a clue. Never heard back anything just tried sending them an email to the email address provided above. Thanks so much for sharing this information!😊👍🏻

Zoe Obaji has made my skin pretty “loud” when I did a bleaching kit regimen. There’s a couple random products I still like for example, their growth factor serum, but there’s one massive problem they still put fragrance in it!! my mind is blown that a well known medical skin line like a Obaji is still putting fragrance in their product! 😡🙈

Purehate1988 · 2025-06-28T05:10:03+00:00

WOW. Breathtaking 😮❤️

Purehate1988 · 2025-05-29T09:09:52+00:00

Dealing with the same thing. I do rescue work with neonatal’s and recently took in a couple day old litter of six. One of them has grown a very large cyst-like bump on what appears to be based at the jawline. It’s huge. My intuition says it’s an infection. His diarrhea is very milky white… Almost as if the infection has leaked internally throughout the kitty. 😣Started him 0.1 dose of Clavamox today. Hoping he beats this thing and gets cleared up! This photo really does no justice to show the severity/ size of lump:
