Forgotten iOS Restrictions Password/Passcode (4 answers)

Closed 5 years ago.

I currently have all my DVDs ripped and stored on a Windows Media Centre box. I am considering moving over to iTunes, and to grab an Apple TV. This also would allow me to watch my movies on my iPhone / iPad and through these (via an HDMI adapter) on the upstairs TV.

While I can use iTunes to place parental restrictions on content, I have not yet found out how to bypass this restriction (such as through a password) for 'parental' viewing. I want content restricted for my kids, but want easy access to higher-rated programs for myself.

Can this be achieved on the iPhone / iPad? How about the Apple TV?

Answer 1

It seems to be possible to unlock restricted movie content on request through your Apple TV, but through your iPhone or iPad it appears not to be possible. You can read more on iTunes, iOS, and Windows 7 parental controls at the included links and in this Lifehacker article. I hope that this information helps, and let me know if you have any further questions.
