Can you delete a phone lock through icloud? my phone is completely dead and i need my photos off it

my phone has died and I need my photos, because it has a phone lock it wont let me sync to iTunes. Is there a way around this?

Syncing with iTunes doesn't transfer photos from your phone to your computer, it only transfers photos from your computer to your phone.  This explains how to import photos: iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer.

  • My iphone 5 is disabled and i need my photos off it so im not able to reset it ? is there anything i can do ?

    Hello ,
    My Iphone 5 is disabled and it does not say how long for. I can not reset it because i need my photos off it. Is there anything i can do to remove the password or sync the photos while it is disabled ? Is there anyway i can do it at home ?

    Have you backed up/synced your phone with a computer at all? If so, I believe you can connect your phone to that same computer and access the data on it.
    I am not 100% sure but it is worth a try!

  • My phone is completly dead and wont respond...

    My Iphone went dead and now wont even acknowledge being plugged in or wont charge at all. The only thing happens is it shows a black screen with a plug and a lightening bolt. Does anyone know if there is something i can do?

    If it won't charge from a known good charger and usb plug there isn't anything you can do, other than perhaps gently brusing the dock connector at the bottom of the phone with a clean dry toothbrush in order to clean it.  Make an appointment with the Genius bar at a nearby Apple store to have it looked at.

  • I lost my phone. How can I delete my phone without having activated iCloud?

    hey I just lost my phone. My question is, how can I delete it without having activated iCloud?

What you cannot do is track your device using a serial number or other identifying number. You cannot expect Apple or anyone else to find your device for you. You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
    If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:

  • TS4036 My iPhone has just been replaced and I am trying to restore from iCloud but its saying no backups are compatible with the version of IOS 6.0.1. My back iOS are IOS 6.1. Can you update the phone first then restore?

    My iPhone has just been replaced and I am trying to restore from iCloud but its saying no backups are compatible with the version of IOS 6.0.1. My back iOS are IOS 6.1. Can you update the phone first then restore?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes, update first, Settings > General > Software Update.
    Then navigate to Settings > General > Reset > Erase all contents and settings on the device you want to restore.
    When this completes and the Set-Up Assistant starts, choose "Restore from iCloud Backup" and enter your iCloud account and password. You will see the three most recent backups for each of the devices on which you enabled Backup. Choose which backup to restore from.

  • Can i get the imei number through icloud if i lost my phone

    can i get the imei number through icloud if i lost my phone

    Hi Snowflake10456,
    I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing. If you are having issues accessing iCloud because you have set up two-step verification and you no longer have access to your trusted device, you may find the following article helpful:
    Frequently asked questions about two-step verification for Apple ID - Apple Support
    On the other hand, if you are in the process of trying to set up iCloud Keychain and are not receiving the verification code, you may find this article more useful:

  • TS4006 can you have multiple phones on same user email

    can you have multiple phones on same user email

    If you mean can they share the same iCloud account, yes.  Just be aware that when multiple devices share the same iCloud account, any data they sync with the account will be merged and the merged data will appear on all of the devices.  Also, any action taken on one device (such as adding or deleting contacts) will also be taken on all other devices sharing the account.  Finally, the iCloud backups of all the devices will share the same iCloud storage space.

  • How can you delete an app without losing saved data/progress?

    How can you delete an app without losing saved data/progress? Is there a way through iCloud? I have an 8gb 4th gen iPod touch. I have a lot of music, so with 8gb, space is limited. Some apps I have take up 20-30 MB. Some of these games I don't play that much, but I don't delete them because I have made a lot of progress (levels, scores, acheivements). It would be nice to delete some of these 30 MB apps that take up precious space, and them redownload them in the future when I have more space, but without having to start the whole game over.
    Also, I read somewhere that there might be a way to do this with iCloud, but I don't really know how.
    Thanks!

    This is the only way I know of.  It is messy though.

    I recently turned off iCloud photo sharing and lost all the photos off my iPhone 4S. How can I get them back onto my phone?

    IF you have successfully imported your pictures to your Mac http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083  then it's safe to delete it from your phone.
    If you want the pics back on your phone, just sync them back using itunes http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236

  • How can I delete an old device from icloud

    I need to remove my old iPhone 5 from icloud, but every forum i see, the descriptions don't match my experience on icloud.com.  I can't get to Products or Manage by Devices, where I can remove the device. I don't have my device.  I am looking to do this on icloud.com

    Hey sharb830,
    You should be able to remove iCloud from a device from there but would need to be erased. If you can get the device to erase then you will not see the option to remove the device from iCloud. For more information take a look at the article below.

    Hi! how can I delete a book from the iCloud? I bought the wrong book ... is for adults and I have kids...so

    The most comprehensive delete method I know about is to delete the book from iTunes on the computer you sync your iPad with.  You'll be asked if you're sure, and it will be deleted from your iPad and any other i-Device you sync to.
    I think that's the best you can do.

  • HT4847 How can I delete old backups on my iCloud so that I can just backup my latest things?

    How can i delete old backups on my iCloud so that I can jsut backup what is on my device now, and not from a year ago

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    All backups made on iCloud overwrite the old one, so you have only the latest backup with your most recent files. If you have a backup of an old device, open Settings > iCloud > Storage and Backup > Manage Storage, select the backup and delete that backup
