How to remove password to unlock my iphone 4

I need to unlock my iphone 4 without password. Can you tell me how to do it

There is no way to retrieve any data from the phone unless you can remember the passcode. That's the whole point of the passcode, to protect the data. To remove the passcode, you'll have to force the phone into recovery mode, as described here, & restore it:

All data on the phone will be erased.

  • I have forgotten my password to unlock my iPhone backup

    While upgrading my operating system and applications I had to restore my phone (via iTunes) from the back up on my computor. I am being asked for a password to unlock my iPhone backup but cannot remember it. How can I get the password or access the back up to restore my phone?

    If on a Mac, and you elected to save such to your Keychain, you can recover it from your Keychain. Otherwise, you can't.
    While you can continue to sync/backup, if you can't remember it & want to remove it, you'll have to delete your existing backups & restore the phone as a new device. Your data will be unrecoverable.

    If you encrypted the backup, there is no way around it. You will need to configure your iPhone as a new device.
    From iTunes: About iOS backups:
    In the iTunes Summary screen, select "Encrypt iPhone backup" if you want to encrypt the information stored on your computer when iTunes makes a backup. Encrypted backups are indicated by a padlock icon, and a password is required to restore the information to iPhone. You may want to write down the password for your backup and store it in a safe place. If you use a Mac, when you set a password you can select to store the password in the keychain. With iOS 4 and later, you can transfer the iOS keychain backup to a new device if you encrypt the backup.
    Warning: If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and then forget your password, you will not be able to restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable. If you forget the password, you can continue to back up and use the device, however you will not be able to restore the encrypted backup to any device without the password. You do not need to enter the password for your backup each time you back up or sync.
    If you cannot remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore, choose set up as a new device.

  • I bought a new iphone5s and when i tried to back it up from my iphone5 itunes is coming up with "enter the password to unlock your Iphone backup" i dont have cluee what the password is? didnt even know i had made one? ive tried my itunes password?

    my itunes wont let me restore my new iphone 5s from my iphone5 as it it is coming up with "enter the password to unlock your iphone backup"  i dont have a password set up? ive tried my itunes password but nothing is working?

    This means when you backed up your device you clicked encrypt backup... That means you need a password to unlock the backup and restore to it. Call apple support for help if you forgot your password.

  • HT1267 how to remove password on my iphone?

    how can i remove password on my iphone??

    Settings>General>Passcode Lock.  Turn it off. You will need to know the current passcode to do this.
    If you can't remember it, you will need to restore the phone using the computer you normally sync to.
    If the computer the phone is set up to sync with is unavailable, you will need to put the phone in DFU mode and restore it as new.

  • How to enter password to unlock iPad after finding it

    I lost my iPad and used Find My IPhone app to lock it.  I found it and can't figure out how to use the password to unlock access to the internet

    I used the app "find my iPhone" to lock the iPad.  It prompted me to enter a passcode that could be used to unlock the device.  I had never used this app before and don't know what it did. My iPad was probably not charged when I did this.  After I found it and recharged it, it did not prompt for the passcode, which is what I expected.  However it doesn't let me on the Internet.

  • Can't figure out how to remove select music from my iPhone 4 with the new iTunes

    My old PC with all my music on iTunes died, and I need to remove some music from my iPhone 4 to make room for the new OS update. I downloaded iTunes on a different computer and tried to sync the iPhone to it, to move all the music on my iPhone to iTunes so I could deselect what songs I wanted to remove to make the storage space. I can't figure out how to do this with the new (non-user-friendly) iTunes update. When I sync the phone, the only songs that show up are the ones I have purchased on iTunes, but non of the songs/albums that I transfered from CDs. I don't want to reset my phone to delete ALL my music, just select songs/albums. Can anyone please help me figure out the new iTunes to be able to do this? It is driving me nuts and I'm getting really mad at Apple for their constant updates making things less easy to use!

    i have the same problem, if u find it out please let me know :C i can erase or put new songs from my pc to itunes u.u

  • How to remove password for the recovery mode wizard which you get by pressing command   r while booting mac with mac os 10.10?

    I've set that password long ago and now forgot on how to remove it.
    Should I go to Apple store for this?

    It's possible you set a firmware password, see if the password dialog is similar to the one on this site…
    http://osxdaily.com/2014/01/06/set-firmware-password-mac/
    Those passwords prevent ALL startup key combinations. Confirm it also happens when you boot holding T (target disk mode - How to use and troubleshoot FireWire target disk mode - Apple Support) If that goes to the password dialog you have a firmware password set.
    Apple suggest you take it to an Apple store to get it reset, you can't remove the battery or remove RAM to reset this, so only Apple should reset it.
