Is it telling you to clear credentials or do you need to know where the option is to change the lock screen type?

SOLVED: even if cleared credentials is grayed out.

Settings > Device: Screen Lock > Screen Lock > enter your PIN (that you are currently using) > OK, and it
brings you back to all the options, i.e. Swipe, Pattern, etc.

I think a lot of people (such as myself) were thinking that when you saw the PIN screen again you were going to set up a new PIN #. Not the case here, it just wants you to enter current PIN in order to change Lock Screen settings. I just happened to try it to see what it would do and it worked! ; )))
