Code #1
Observations
Right amount of numbers for a code. Try to identify the keyword in order to help you.

[hint]Think of a num keypad[/hint]
Spoiler
Looking at the range of numbers, they are 123, qwe, asd and x. This emulates the num keypad on a keyboard.

Code #3
Observations
32 letters, you’ll need to try a few ciphers before getting that one.
Spoiler
After trying all the usual cipher, the only one left was Vigenere. Not knowing any hint for what to use as a pass phrase I just started typing the alphabet letter. The passphrase ABCDEFGHIJ will reveal
