Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

My Apple Watch says "Too many passcode attempts, reset Apple Watch and pair again." It will not respond to attempts to reset by any means such as a force reset pushing both buttons. What can I do? I did not use it for several months prior.

What do I do to reset the watch? I have tried a force reset by holding the buttons for 10 seconds, no luck.
