I forgot the code to the lock screen to my phone and its telling me to connect to itunes....what do I do?

You need to connect the phone to your computer's iTunes, and that should recognise the phone and let you reset it back to factory defaults - you can then restore/resync your content to it.

I try again and works normally. Sometimes do that.
What Happens?

Try the standard fixes:
- Reset. Nothing will belost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

If you swipe down from that bar, it will pull up your notification center.

HT4528 I accidently turned on one of the handicap features on my phone and its keeping my from unlocking the phone

I accidently turned on one of the handicap features on my phone and its keeping my from unlocking the phone...how do I reset it? or get into my phone?

Take a look at this Apple document -> iPhone: Configuring accessibility features (including VoiceOver and Zoom)
If your iPhone is zoomed in too much, try double-tapping with three fingers.

My ipad2 has locked. When I switch on its asks me to connect to iTunes which it does. Prompts me to restore and then gives an error message (11)

My ipad2 has crashed. Tried to do an update last night. Upload bar moved 1cm then locked stayed like that all night. I have switched off and then on again and its prompting me to connect to itunes. Once connected it says to restore. It starts this process and then stops with an error message (11) I cant access anything on it not even the battery charge indicator shows. What do I do?
Thanks

Which file is mentioned as the cause of that script error?<br />
Is that a file with a chrome protocol?

My ipod touch screen froze on a blank white page and won't let me connect to itunes what to do?

It works for many users. In some cases the white screen is due to a hardware problem and there is nothing that one can do short of getting someonet to know what they are doing and take the iPod apart andmaybe fix the hardware problem.

Is there any way to keep the charge indicator bar onscreen in the lock screen in IOS7? And can I keep the call in progress screen up instead of going to wallpaper while a call is dialing?

IOS6 had a charge indicator bar on the lock screen that allowed me to see at a gance how much charge I had. Now it only flashes onscreen when I first connect the charger for about 1-2 seconds. I know the icon in the top right shows percentage, but it is too small to get an accurate look.
Also, when a call is in the progress of dialing my phone just shows the wall paper instead of the whole call control screen. I can hit the home button then hit the return to call bar at the top of the screen to get the control screen, but that is annoying to say the least. If I accidentally dial a number while navigating my contacts or one of the apps it takes several steps to cancell the call before completion.
I know my wallpaper may be pretty, but I don't need to see it while trying to use the phone instead of having control of the phone or seeing desired information (charge indicator).

I have a similar issue. Sound works okay but keep getting the app not optimized, you may experience a decrease in celluar strength. Verizon says it is a software issue. Apple says it is a hardware. Phone will niot synch to itunes to do any kind of reset.

HT201263 I forgot my passcode to iphone 4s. I entered wrong and now it says, disabled connect to itunes. I have some VERY important information on the phone and it was not backed up. Is there anyway I can unlock my phone and not lose my information?

I locked my iphone 4s, I forgot the passcode and it says disabled connect to itunes. I have some very important information on the phone I can't lose, How can I retrieve that information if the phone was not backed up to icloud of my mac? I will go to court over this to prove it is my phone. I just can't lose this information. Please, Please, Please, help me. I will mail the phone in to apple store if that will help.

You can't. If your phone is disabled, the data has already been erased...that's the whole point of the passcode. Your only option now is:
Turn your phone off, then force it into recovery mode & restore it:
Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

I forgot my Iphone 5s passcode, its asking me to connect to itunes, what to do?

I forgot my Iphone 5s passcode, its now asking me to connect to itunes, because its been blocked for the last 3 hours, what to do?

Connect the iPhone to the computer you usually sync with and use iTunes
on that computer to restore your iPhone. Then reinstall your information from
iCloud/backup/where ever you keep your copy of the data on your iPhone.
