[2] idhhibfafcgigjgfgigiichjiafgfdfahche
[3] ggr98,wblyur,y774,w
Code #1
Observations
Right amount of numbers to convert into a passcode, just need a quick manipulation.
Spoiler
Had to stare twice at the different transpositions, the keyword used is not seen often.
Make a 6×3 grid

riir7k
Reverse the middle row

Code #2
Observations
36 letters ranging from A to J.
Spoiler
Letters in that range usually indicate a decimal conversion. Convert letters to numbers (a=0)

Code #3
Observations
Numbers fall in the right position, those commas should hint you at the cipher
[hint]Flip it[/hint]
Spoiler
Anytime you see commas or slashes your first instinct should be to think about a keyboard flip cipher. For the cipher every rows use 10 keys: 1 to 0, Q to P, A to L and Z to /.
Simply flip all the characters to get
