iPhone/iPod Touch/ iPod (all other versions)/ iPad passcode lock passw

Hello fellow AppleScript programmers,

I would like to make a program in AppleScript that will allow me to plug any of the devices listed in the subject line above (iPhone / iPod Touch / iPod (all other versions) / iPad) that have a passcode set and I want to be able to have the program pop up with the password that is currently set. In other words, when you forget your password, this program will allow you to recover it just by telling you what the currently set passcode is right on the application.

Please reply quick.

Thanks for all the help,

Benjamin

You can’t do that with AppleScript.

An iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad don’t mount drives, but actually talks to the device. An iPod (normal) does mount a drive (OS is the invisible files) meaning, you will have to decode the password from a file. I have no clue on that, I only got an iPhone. This would have to be done in another language (Objective-C).

I knew this from an old iPod nano (the first one with video) and I loved it.
