My screen is shattered how can I unlock it

My computer recognizes my iPod but tells me I need to unlock it. My problem is I can't because the screen is shattered. Is there some way I can unlock it or get my pictures

None that I know of.  The security feature does work.

    Hi,
    Try a Reset of the Phone... You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the Phone Off...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 10 - 15 Seconds...
    Turn the Phone On...
    If that does not help... See Here:

    I have forget my 4 digit passcode for my ipad 3 and exhausted all the attempts, Now the screen shows "ipad is disabled connect to itunes" How can I unlock my ipad now. Also I have not put "Find my iphone" in icloud as well. Please guide me to unlock it.

    Also when I am trying to connect ipad to my windows PC, it shows, your software is up to date and later starts restoring while updating again. Then automatically it stops to update halfway and I have to repeat the process again and again, still in vain.

    My phone was run over. It still works enough to see some of the screen but not the number pad. I cannot unlock the phone because I activated find my iphone. How can I unlock the phone so I can save my photos? Is there a way to unlock it from find my iphone. It was not backed up in iCloud. When I plug it into my computer, the computer tells me that I have to unlock it first. Help?

    No I haven't synced my iPhone with the computer I'm currently using. The computer that I normally sync my iPhone with is being repaired.
    I read a nearly identical question to mine (in which you answered) and I found my the answer. Thanks!
    Now I have a few more questions: If I mail my broken iPhone to Asurion, will I be able to get my data off of my iPhone once Asurion has it? And what will happen to my old iPhone and the data on it if I activate my replacement iPhone? Will my broken iPhone just become de-activated and will the data be erased or lost or something? Could I still sync it (with the computer ir originally synced with) and back up the data?
    Thanks.

  • My iPod nano has a lock on the screen.How can I unlock and use my nano?

    My iPod nano has a lock on the screen. How can I unlock and use my iPod?

    Do you know there is the lock/unlock thing on the top or bottom right? If that doesn't work, hold down the middle circle and top portion of the circle button at the same time and hold until the screen goes black. Let go and soon an apple will appear. If you wait / press some buttons (i am not sure exactly how this part works) it will turn white and then the screen will appear again. You have all your music and everything still but the problem should be gone. This also works if your iPod ever freezes.

  • How can I unlock an IPod with a locked screen that says Will open in 21,889,406 minutes?

    How can I unlock an IPod with a locked screen that says Will open in 21,889,406 minutes? It was in our companies lost and found a couple years ago. Was never claimed. If I could unlock it, I could possible find out whose it is/was or at least use it. Not sure what model or what operating system it has. Was lost in 2010 in the fall of that year.

  • How can I unlock my iphone with a black screen to back up to itunes?

    How can I unlock my iphone with a black screen to back up to itunes?

    Reset the phone:  Press both the home and on/off buttons for AT LEAST 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears.  (No data loss)
    If no response, connect to AC adaptor, charge for at least 30 minutes and repeat the reset if needed
    If still no response, there is a hardware failure that needs evaluation by Apple or whoever provides iPhone service in your country.

  • How can I unlock the screen after a shock lighter?

    how can I unlock the screen after a shock lighter?

    What is a shock lighter? I don't understand what you are asking? If you are saying the the slide to unlock isn't working, try rebooting your iPad.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up

  • My Ipad is in a locked rotation.  How can I unlock it?  carolynmunson

    My Ipad is in a locked rotation.  How can I unlock it?  carolynm.

    Is there a lock symbol at the top of the screen next to the battery indicator ? If there is, then depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (rotation lock or mute notifications), then you can lock/unlock the rotation by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
    If there isn't a lock symbol then try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    How can I unlock my Ipod?

    You do not have to restore as new.  You can restore fom backup since the screen-lock passcode isnot in the backup.  ALso, if  iTunes asks for the passcode andyu can't enter the passcode place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore. For recovery mode:

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