Forgotten password on iPhone 5, how can i reset via iTunes and use the phone?

I bought a used iPhone 5 from a friend, and unfortunately i found out there is a passcode when turning it on!!, and the old owner of the phone has forgot it! i tried 3-4 times and it said "wrong password",  WHat can I do to be able to launch the phone, or reset it via iTunes?

If it has been disabled after entering the wrong passcode - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212.
Unfortunately, you must restore it in iTunes on your computer.   There is no way to retrieve a forgotten pass lock code.
You will need to restore your device from the same computer that you most recently synced to, and restore the device. See - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414.

  • How can I sync over itunes and at the same time sync over icloud?

    Hello,
    I just recently updated my iTunes to the latest version and now run into the following challenge. With the "old" iTunes I was able to sync my Outlook calendar from my company computer over iTunes with my iPhone and my iPad. At the same time I was able to sync my private appointments on my iPhone over iCloud with my iPad. That way my appointments from my company computer appeared in a different color on my mobile devices as my private appointments and everything was fine.
    Now, after updating iTunes, I cannot sync my Outlook calendar from my company computer anymore - iTunes is just telling me I choose to sync my calendar over iCloud and leaves me no option anymore to sync "manually" in addition to the iCloud with iTunes.
    How can I solve the issue? Basically, how can I sync my company appointments with my iPhone without using iCloud on my company computer?

    Hi,
    I have the same issue and I can tell that it really *****. Now I have to manually copy cal items to my icloud calendar to have the business cal items on my iphone.  have looked into codetwo for icloud which is nice for notes, tasks and contacts but it only works for business cal items which I myself have created not for items for which I was invited. Contacted their support but I think it won't help.
    If you have any suggestions how to overcome this problem, I'd be glad if you posted your solution.
    Thx in advance
    iphone 5, iOS 6.0.1, icloud for windows 2.1, windows 7 64bit

  • -I have a password protected excel spreadsheet, how can I get my iPads and iPhones to read this and save it password protected?

    I have a password protected excel spreadsheet, how can I get my iPads and iPhones to read this and save it password protected?

    Documents to Go says that it, "Opens password protected Excel 97-2008 files", but does not say whether it can save them as "password protected".
    This might work for you.

    Hi - I need help. I would like to use my old iPhone 3 as an iPod for music only. Problem is that my phone is locked with a password I can't remember. I havent used the phone since I got my iPhone 4. Anyone who know how I can reset the phone to standard installation or just get acces to the phone. There is no SIM card in the phone.

    Hi Lawrence,
    Thanks for your prompt response, however I have first seen it now. I have placed an active SIM card in the iPhone turned it off and on. It now says SIM locked, please write access code. The problem is I don't remember the password. When I connect it to iTunes it tell me that I have to write the password before it can be used with iTunes...... Do you have any good ideas? I see you are from the NYC area.... used to work there back in the early 90´   Those were good days..... What a City

    I have three iPads and one iPod and one iPhone.  How can I message between them without sending the message to all of them.  You send the message to your email address but all of them are set up under one account.

    You can have a different receiving email in the Messages app on each device : Settings > Messages > Receive At . I'm not sure that there is a different way to have the message only go to one device.

  • My Gf has my iphone. How can I see recent messages and calls from another device?

    My Gf has my iphone. How can I see recent messages and calls from another device?

    Depending on your carrier, you may be able to see recent calls by logging into your account on the carrier's web site, if they offer such a feature, though incoming calls being shown is not usual. There will, as diesel said, be no way to see messages already received, either SMS/MMS or iMessages, without having the phone.
    Regards.

    Thanks for replying. The plan you have it would be an additional charge to add the hotspot feature. It's not free with the Nationwide plan. You would need to add the feature online at www.verizonwireless.com/myverizon

  • How can i create multiple accounts but use the same itunes?

    how can i create multiple accounts but use the same itunes?

    Hi iCloud is Making Me Go Crazy,
    You will need to create a new Apple ID for your GameCenter and iCloud services.  You can continue to use the current Apple ID you share with your Mom for access to iTunes Store purchases if you wish.

  • How can I have another Itunes account on the same computer for my wife?

    How can I have another Itunes account on the same computer for my wife?

    In case you didn't fully understand what dallon meant, it means another user account on your computer. You set that up in Windows and then instal iTunes onto that account.
    That way, you each have your own desktop and your own itunes. You can link to the songs in the other person's library as well, but you cannot run both iTunes at the same time. (That simply means you need to close it on the first account before opening it on the second account.)

  • How can I disable a hover link in the phone view size?

    Hola
    How can I disable a hover link in the phone view size?
    I got this site where I got a gallery page,
    the pics have a hover/link state (?) where as you click in them
    they will open a bigger pic. (Prettyphoto)
    Thanks good.
    What I want to do, is that the hover state (?)
    won't show in the phone size.
    I know that I will need a media queries, but I'm not sure
    where or how to tackle this problem.
    This is the code where I have the pics
    <div class="grid_3 project-item bar">
                                             <figure class="project-img">
                                                 <img src="../images/gallery_pics/memos_bar_s5.jpg" alt="Memo's Cocina & Tequila Bar" />

                                                     </a></div>
                                           </figure>
                                          </div>
    Thanks for your help

    If you don't want a :hover state to show in the phone css of a fluid grid layout, you would remove it from the global settings and only include it in the tablet and desktop media queries.
    Or are you trying to do something else?

    my iphone 5's screen blacks out every now and then. the phone is turned on but the screen is black and i can receive calls. what is wrong with my phone?

    I have to believe this has something to do with iOS 7 issues. I have taken my screen blacked out 5s twice to the Genius Bar and the found a bunch of system apps had crashed.  So if this is the case, is iOS7 the problem?
