Hi my friend gave me an iphone but on the screen it says 'iphone disabled connect to itunes
I have got an iphone 3 from my friend that had been used by his ex wife. The phone says ' iphone disabled connect to itunes.
She 'cant remember her passcode'
I have put the phone into restore mode and connected to itunes, ( i downloaded the latest edition ) but it says its going to take 3 hours to download software - its still downloading and then earlier I got an error code oxE800002D. I cant find the error code so dont know what it means.
I dont know if I am wasting my time trying to get it working or if it will be possible to get the phone in working order ( with lots of help from you all :-) )
Any help or advice will be gratefully recieved
Thanks.
I did this and moved on a little but now am getting error code 3194.
i looked on the support site but dont really understand
Any ideas ?

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 iPhone 4 has an error message on the screen that reads "iiPhone disabled connect to iTunes" I've tried connecting and can't get anywhere what do I do and what is the problem?
Your phone is disabled for some reason. Maybe you entered the wrong Passcode too many times. In any case you need to do just as the phone is instructing you to do. Start the latest version of atones on your computer and connect your phone. iTunes should guide you through the process of getting your phone working again. Here's a link to an Apple support page on this:

HI,

Since you don't have a back up, you will lose all the data on your phone but you will be able to use it again.

The number pad would not let me type in a 1 2 3 for my 4 digit code. After numerous tries, the phone now says iphone disabled connect to itunes. When I connected to itunes, it asked for the code which I was unable to enter. Help!
Open iTunes on computer, connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power buttons on iPhone until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. This usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. Restore the iPhone Firmware.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

Iphone disabled connect to itunes
Hi,
My daughter has forgotten her password on her iphone and after too many attempts, it says iphone disabled, connect to itunes. I connected to itunes but now what? Am I going to need to restore and all is erased?
Thank you for any help,
SherylI synced the phone and it is back to the normal enter passcode screen, it's not disabled. What do I do at this point. She knows the 4 numbers that she entered but does not remember the sequence and I don't want to start trying them again. Any advice what I can do at this point?

IPhone disable, connect to itunes
Hi,
I dropped my iPhone 4 in the toilet about a month ago and it stopped working, i put it in rice and left it. I went to try and turn it on today and it worked, but it says "iPhone disabled, connect to iTunes" so I connected it to iTunes and it says "to allow access, please respond on your iPhone" but my iPhone won't let me have access unless it's connected to iTunes. Lose lose. It may be because the computer that my phone is backed up to is in another country. Please help if anyone has any answers. TYConnect to iTunes on computer and enter Recovery Mode. Here are easy steps. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB Cable. Hold both Home and Power buttons until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. This usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. Click the Restore button of iTunes.
