I have the PC version, so this is how I do it: Move your cursor/lockpick under those things, push it up, and left click (i don't know what the button on the 360 is) right when it touches the top.
well i havnt played in a long time but if i remember correctly you press up onthe pin and when it gets to the top u hit a? ur lockpicking skill determines if it stays up but so does ur timing. i personally just used the automatic feature and saved before i picked the lock incase it required a large amount of picks and didnt yield anything worthwile.man i wish rl had a save and load system =)
it took me a while how to do it properly, without using too many picks, the wat you do it is you keep pushing the pin up maybe 1,2, or 3 times untill the pin drops quickly, then the next time you pick it the pin stays for longer at the top making it easy to keep in place by pressing A
If mage, go make a lock opening spell, if not wait till lvl 10 at get the special key. Before then just press auto, using potions to boost security where needed.
There is a quest somewhere (don't remember where) but I have done the quest. If you finish it, you get the "Skeleton Key." It pretty much rasies your lockpicking to max level and the pick never breaks.
