    Don't know my parental code

  • Anonymous Sep 20, 2008

    I have an archos 705 with the same problem. The only difference is, is that i did not put a parental lock on. As it is new i just went into settings and press the parental control in the list but did not touch the no. key pad. now everytime i come out of the archos and go back into it the key pad pops up for a code which i never put in, in the first place. Is it different to clear it?

Archos so called customer service are totally useless, I have emailed them three times regarding this problem and they have never replied.
This is my first and last Archos!!

  • Anonymous May 27, 2010

    I got a result at last...

    Forget emails and just phone them on 0207 949 0115 between 8.00am and 6.00pm

    They worked out a code straight away (4849) and it unlocked my 605.

    Hope this helps.

How to unlock playsation2 dvd

Hi, try the following the code is only a parental lock so give the master code a try below

1. Bring up a screen where the unit asks you to enter in the parental code. You can either insert a restricted disc, or enter the DVD setup menu and go to "parental control" under custom setup.

2. When the screen asks for the code, press the SELECT button, then enter in the code "7444".

3. The level adjustment under Parental Control dictates the strictness of the player. The lower the value, the more strict it will be. Either increase the value to lower the restriction, or disable the lock entirely by setting it to "off".

4. Once you have made your adjustments, be sure that the DVD tray is empty, and press the RESET button on the front of the Playstation 2. It is imperative the tray is clear of any DVD or game for the unit to save your settings.

let me know if it dont work or if you need further assistance ok

plz rate this solution as i have a whole page of unrated posts, thanks

I have a 605 archos wifi and i cannot reset the parental code

The "Master Rest" button is underneath the device. http://i952.photobucket.com/albums/ae9/rlcii77/Archos605MasReset.jpg
This will not erase any data but it will reset some of the settings.

If this doesn't work, you can go to "Repair and Formatting Tools".

If that doesn't work, you may need to perform a "System Recovery". This WILL ERASE all data and make the device the way it was from the factory.

Code

Archos.com FAQ says I forgot what the 'Parental Code' is. Where can I get it?The factory default code is "0000".
If you have changed it and forgotten it, then you'll have to contact our Technical Support and give your 'Product key' (number of the device).
The 'Product key' is found under MENU > Settings > Software and Plug-ins.

If you forgot your password for this feature, press the following buttons on the remote, one at a time. (Note: You must be in the password entry screen) Press, Mute, Display,Clear and Reset, this unlocks parental controls and you can now re-enter a new password.
OR TRY THIS..

Settings

Standard the code is 0000.
If you don't have created one.
The reason why this shows up has to be in Settings -> parental control.
If the mode is adult, you can see everything, in child mode some files can be blocked if you want.
You just need to switch back to adult, code 0000
If the code is wrong, it was set before, then you need to contact support to get you a new one or unlock this code.
