HT201365 I've forgotten my passcode and can't get into the phone to turn off "find my iphone" in order to restore it... Help Please
I've forgotten my passcode and can't get into the phone to turn off "find my iphone" in order to restore it... Can anyone help?
If you know the password to your apple id login - you can then do a restoration once you have put your device into recovery mode using itunes.
read this article to give you direction how to put your device into recovery mode.
Once you have put in your apple id login and password this then will allow you to restore the device once the device is placed in recovery mode.
good luck!

How can I turn off "Find My iPhone" in order to restore my phone if forgot my Passcode?
I'm trying to restore my iPhone 4S because I forgot the Passcode. I got a new 5c but when I went back to my 4s, I forgot my Passcode and now it is disabled and it says "Connect to ITunes" but iTunes says that "Find My iPhone" must be turned off before it can be restored, but I can't turn that off if I can't get into my phone. What do I do?
u may try what kappy suggested or
donwload a stock firm ware of your iOS from any external site
switch of your iPhone
put it in recovery mode ,connect to a pc/ mac with iTunes
open iTunes if it did not open on its own
it should pop a message saying "iTunes detected a iPhone in recovery mode"
click ok or hold option and click on restore
it pops up a finder window just select the firmware u downloaded
and let the magic happen
afterwards u can sync but don't restore from a back up it locks ur phone again -

Continue reading the support document that you linked to the forum with. It gives you the instructions. To remove the passcode you have to restore the phone as new, then you can restore from your backup.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You might try a forced shutdown to begin with, hold down the top and home buttons together until the device shuts down, then restart it. -
I just updated to iOS7 and an old appleid popped up. My old password is not recognized so I can't delete the account or turn off find my iphone. The old appleid is linked to an email I don't have anymore, and answers to my security ?'s aren't recognized. Is there any way I can reset my account to my new appleid? This has happened to every iphone and ipad in my family that has updated to iOS7.

I was in the middle of installing the new update using the wifi at a local restaurant when I lost the wifi signal and my iPhone shut down, and now I can't get into the phone. I only get the iTunes logo with the cable pic. What are my options now?
Your only option is to connect your iPhone to your computer via USB (as the diagram indicates) and restore using iTunes.

You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.

I have the iphone 5
my lock button is broken
my screen is off set and i cannot type in my password to get into the phone and reset the phone
how or what do i have to do to fix this?
and im at work so i cant get the serial number to youmy lock button is broken
If your lock button is broken, the only solution is to get the phone replaced or repaired. There is no way to reset the phone without a functioning lock button.
and im at work so i cant get the serial number to you
This is a user to user tech support form, not Apple support. The S/N wouldn't provide any solution regardless.
