How can i get into the phone without the computer or passcode?

A friend of mine gave me an old iphone to use as a replacement for mine and she no longer has the computer for the itunes which it was synced, nor does she remember the passcode.

As Allan says, it's not possible.  Frankly, that makes me feel a whole lot more secure.  I would not want to think that if my iPhone were misplaced that someone could get into it without either the computer or passcode.

    How can I get into my iPhone without activating it through itunes id

    If the iPhone has Find My iPhone activation lock enabled then you will not be able to activate the iPhone without entering the correct Apple ID and password it is locked to. Sorry but there is no way to bypass this.

    My iPhone has been locked because I forgot my passcode.   How can I get into my phone?

    Restore it as explained in the article you were just reading.  If you're running iOS 7 with Find My iPhone enabled, you'll have to force it into recovery mode in order to restore it (see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808).

    Hi Myreiac,
    Here's what the Apple Support site says you can do if you do not have access to a computer when your device has been disabled:
    If you are using Find My iPhone, you can use Remote Wipe to restore your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode.
    You can access Find My iPhone via the Find My iPhone app on your iPad.
    Good luck!
    Cheers,

  • How do I get into my phone without my passcode?

    I have been locked out of my iPhone 4s. I tried using several passcodes and now my phone says disabled. I'm not sure how to get back into my phone without losing any of my contacts, pics etc.

    If you can't remember the passcode there is no way to get access to the data on the phone. If there were there would be no point in having a passcode. If you have been practicing safe computing and backing up your phone regularly to your computer and/or iCloud you can restore the phone as New, then restore your backup. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212.

  • HT5100 my iphone 4s is locked how can i get into my phone

    my phone is locked and im not able to do aanything,
    How can i get the itunes logo off the main screen

    If you mean activation lock, the only way to activate it is to enter the ID and password that were used to activate it originally.  If you are not the original owner, you'll have to contact that person for that information, or to have them erase it and remove it from their account as explained here: Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account.  No one else can help you with this and there is no way around it.

  • How can I get into my phone if I cant use the touch screen?

    I went to go use my phone and when I attempted to get to the screen to type in my passcode, the area to swipe didnt work. The only feature that "works" is the little arrow on the bottom to get to the brightness feature, etc. I cannot turn my phone off manually or adjust anything on the screen itself. I cant even get to the emergency call screen. Im not sure if restoring the phone through itunes will delete anything I currently have on there... Please help!

    Hi eskimoerin,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you have not already, first try resetting your iPhone using these steps:
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    You can find the article with these steps here:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the touchscreen is still unresponsive after your iPhone resets, use these steps to back up the data on the device and restore it using iTunes:

  • I'm stuck at the activation stage! I don't have the original sim card and I don't know what carrier it was originally on! How can I get into my phone?

    I was wondering if there was any way of accessing my iPhone 4 without a micro sim card. I am currently at the activating section, and after it tells you to find WIFI, it says to enter a sim card. I bought this iPhone off of my friend and he took out his original sim card! I dont know what carrier he was using. Is there any way I can access the phone just to play music on it for now?

    Buy a H20 Wireless micro SIM card off eBay for $.99. You can activate the phone/SIM from their website. H2O uses AT&Ts network.

  • How do i get into my phone when i forgot my passcode?

    I need help with my new iphone 5. i changed my passcode so my kids cant use it. Now i have forgotten it and need help acessing my phone.

    You will have to restore the device. Hopefully it's been recently backed up to your computer or iCloud.
    Restore steps:
    Connect iPhone to computer.
    In iTunes, select iPhone in the Devices list, then click Summary at the top of the screen.
    Click "Restore." Follow the onscreen instructions to complete the restore process.
    I hope this helps. Good luck.

  • HT4623 I just upgraded my iPhone to OS 7.0.3 and I created a passcode.  I regret having done that because the code I keep typing in isn't being accepted and then my phone gets disabled for 1 hour. How can I get into the settings to unset a passcode

    Hmmm...
    First of all, your profile says you have an iPhone 3G.  Is this true?  The iPhone 3G cannot be updated past iOS 4.2.1.
    Second, your post says you "just upgraded my iPhone and now have iOS 7.0.3."  That is not possible either, as the latest iOS is 7.0.4.
    You can go to Settings > General > Passcode and turn it off there ... if your iPhone is truly not jailbroken or hacked.
