HT201210 Locked out of iPhone 4! Need Help!

I have forgotten my passcode. I locked myself out of my iPhone 4 to where it says, "iPhone is disabled, connect to iTunes". I go to connect to iTunes to restore to factory settings (i heard it is the only way) but i do not have the latest iOS update. So I have to update first. It finishes but then Itunes says my phoneis locked with passcode so it cannot connect to Itunes.  I obviously dont know passcode to apply the update. From there it just stops! Please help!?

Put the iPhone into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:

If that still doesn't work, try DFU mode:

    - Next try the manual install method of:
    iDevice Troubleshooting 101 :: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch
    If the iPod was Disabled, place the iPod in recovery mode after the firmware download is complete and then restore using the instructions in the article. Sometimes recovery mode timeouts and returns to disabled before the firmware download is complete.

  • Have tried Apple password too many times now locked out of iPhone and ipad

    I Have tried to put Apple password on too many times now I am locked out of iPhone and iPad how do I fix this

    If you've disabled your iTunes account (is that what you mean ?) then you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
    You might then need to log out of your account on your devices by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on them.
    If that doesn't fix it then contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • I am trying to change my apple id Country. but it says " you have a store credit balance, you must spend your balance before you can change it." i don't wanna use it to change my country. by the way i can't update any of iPhone apps. need help

    I am trying to change my apple id Country. but it says " you have a store credit balance, you must spend your balance before you can change it." i don't wanna spend it to change my country. by the way i can't update any of iPhone apps. need help

    It's strange because I can change my AppleID country without this message.
    So what to do? Just try to do this again, but on another device. You may also erase cookies and history of your browser.
    I hope it will be helpful, good luck!

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Start your iPhone in recovery mode, connect the iPhone to your computer and restore it using iTunes. When this finishes, don't restore the backup and sync it with iTunes

  • I am locked out of my ipod touch help

    Hey guys i need help i am locked out of my ipod and i cant remeber my password can you please help me

    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup).
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.
    You may have to force iPad/iPod into Recovery Mode

    I just bought this ipad and cannot log out from icloud because i dont have the password.how can i log out from icloud?need help

    You need to return it to the seller and get your money back.  You cannot reset or use the device with another AppleID installed unless you know the password for that ID.
    If the device has been jailbroken, no one on here can give you any further help...the Terms of Use prohibit us from doing so.

  • Can't Figure This Out....Need Help.

    I am attempting to add a line score from a minor league
    baseball team to a website of mine (it's an actual "in progrss"
    line score that updates itself). It looks like it uses a feed of
    somesort with a page refresher, but I can not identify what it is
    from looking at the source code.
    The format I really want looks like this website:
    http://web.minorleaguebaseball.com/clubs/ip_index.jsp?sid=milb&cid=t525
    However, I would be more than happy to get something that
    looks like the line score from this website (on the right above the
    standings):
    http://www.clippersbaseball.com/
    Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    you might want to explain what your problem is in the title
    of your post. a lot of people don't even look at ones that say
    something like "need help" without any explanation of what the
    actual problem is.
    that being said, from what i can tell from the code of those
    pages, it looks they created some kind of database or something for
    those stats thingies. which means it's probably not something that
    you can just copy and implement on your own site. you might have to
    create your own database.
    but maybe someone else will have some ideas. again, you might
    want to repost or change the name of this thread, if that's
    possible. i doubt you'll get many more responses to this
    one.
