Why is my iPhone asking for an Ipad passcode

Why is my iPhone asking for an Ipad passcode when signing in?


When I tried to "Update Appleid settings" there was an ipad showing as a device. I have never owned an ipad and do not ever remember connecting to one. I deleted the ipad device from the phone. but it is still asking for the ipad passcode.

iPhone 8, iOS 14

Incorrect Process:

Erase All Content and Settings and use a new Passcode after the erase won't work because it will ask you for the old passcode. You have only one option read below


Correct Process

If one had attempted unlocking multiple times with incorrect Lock Screen passcode, or if a message says that the device is disabled, learn what one needs, what one gets, and what is lost.


You need a computer to follow these steps. If you don't have a computer, borrow one from a friend.
