How can I restore my iphone back to factory reset after it has been disabled from trying so many times to unlocked with the wrong passcode?

My son had place a passcode and don't remember it and he try so many times to unlocked the phone but since he did it so many times and it was the wrong passcode the phone now is disabled, How can I get it to work again?

Well, the level of pain you are about to experience will hinge on what level of backup you have of the phone. If none, you will soon have a blank, from-factory phone you will have to reconfigure from scratch.

  • How to fix your iPhone 4 after you have been disabled from trying too many pass codes after the update? I haven't used a passcode in so long I can't remember it.

    I downloaded the new IOS 7 and it asked for a pass code to unlock it when it finished, however, I haven't used a pass code in so long, I don't remember what it is!  I have tried all I have ever used and still no luck. Now my phone is disabled and I can't use my new operating system! Very disappointed!

  • How can i get a solution for this message "Your Apple ID has been disabled"?

    How can i get a solution for this message "Your Apple ID has been disabled"?

    Contact iTunes Store support. That message can mean one of several things:
    Your credit card on file has expired
    The credit card issuer has denied a charge
    Your account has been hacked
    Key information in your account has changed, and Apple needs to contact you to confirm the change.

  • TS2446 how can you reactivate an account after it has been disabled for a amount of time?

    i had to make a new apple ID so i could carry on using iTunes Store until iTunes support could sort out making sure i could re download my music and apps, now i cant use it at all and the ID i use is now playing up and now refusing to let me use either of my cards in the store!!! Can anyone help and / or advise me please?

    I suggest you to send an email to itune sstore support. They can review your account and find out why it had been disabled.

  • How can i restore my information backed up to icloud after I've restored my device with my last backup in itunes?

    I lost my phone and needed to get a replacement.  When I did, I started the activation process, but never got prompted to restore from iCloud, just from my last backup in iTunes.  I've run the restoration, and the backup was pretty out of date.  Is there a way to restore the backup I'd set up in iCloud at this point?

    First, I would plug the phone into a wall outlet to make sure you do not loose power during the restore. If you had a lot of information on your iPhone like apps, music, movies, etc it will take a while for all that information to e restored.
    Second, restore the device and erase all content through the phone and not through iTunes. For some reason if you do a restore through iTunes it skips the restore from iCloud backup. Go to Aetting -> Generally -> Reset -> Erase All Content and Settings. It will take a few minutes to complete this process.
    Third, once e Erase All Content and Settings is completed, setup the iPhone through he Wizard.
    Fourth, select restore from iCloud backup.
    Fifth, wait for the resotre to be completed.
    Finally, enjoy your restored phone.

    The following assumes you've been backing up to icloud all along.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  This will erase your device.  Then you will go through the setup screens again as you did when your device was new, and when given the option, select Restore from iCloud Backup.
    Let us know if this method does not work.

    - You do have iTunes version 11 on the computer, right. Saying the latest is not sufficient.
    - Have you tried everthing here:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    - You should
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    Your library/media will not be affected.

  • How can i restore a iPhone 4s (ios7) with a back from from a iphone5 (ios8.1.1?)

    how can i restore a iPhone 4s (ios7) with a backup from from a iphone5 (ios8.1.1)?
    When I try Easing All Content and Restore. It backup's to ios7. Then I'm unable to install the backup that i have in the cloud.
    Help!

    Are you sure it's a 4S and not a 4?
    You can't restore a backup made with a newer version of iOS to a phone running an older one. You must update the phone to the newer version of iOS, wipe it again, then restore the backup.

  • How can I restore my iphone 4s to a previous backup I can see in the backup folder?

    Ok, here's a question for the restore/ backup pros. 
    On 1/4/14 I thought I would back up my iPhone 4s because it had been over a year (yeah, I know not a good idea to wait so long) since I had last backed it up (8/13/12, to be exact).  So, when I connected it to my computer, iTunes recommended I update the iTunes software.  So, I did.  Somewhere in the middle of the update I noticed that my iPhone kinda "rebooted" and I saw what a friend of mine referred to as the "restore iPhone" image on it.
    Then, I received an error message from iTunes saying that there was a problem with my iPhone & that I would have to restore it to factory settings.  WTH!!!!
    I went ahead and befored the restore.  Oddly enough, I seemed to get all my data back.  Heck, I even got emails & contacts that I added minutes before I tried to back it up.  I thought I had dodged a bullet & then I started to notice Apps that were missing & other Apps that I had deleted long ago back on the iPhone.
    Then, other anomolies surfaced, like photos missing, contacts missing, & worst of all the App that I used to store some really preceious pictures, photo vault, was also gone (and all my most precious pictures).  Those pics were not in my camera roll any longer as I had moved them to this App.
    Okay, I studied all I could on the net & learned where the backup files are stored on my computer and huh, it looks likes it took a back up right before (during?) the iTunes update that caused all this mess.  The problem is, iTunes doesn't show this backup as one I can select when trying to restore it.
    My Question is, "How can I restore my iPhone to the backup dated 1/4/14 that I can clearly see in the backup folder?"
    Many thanks,  psmcpher

    oops.  typo:  "I went ahead and befored the restore."  should be... I went ahead and performed the restore.

  • My partner was trying to sync my phone to iTunes on our mac but instead restored all his phone details to my phone. It appears that I have lost everythin. I have no backup. How can I restore my iPhone.

    My partner was trying to sync my phone to iTunes on our mac but instead restored all his phone details to my phone. It appears that I have lost everything. I have no backup. How can I restore my iPhone.

    hmm thats kinda odd! how he managed to do that i dont know I thought the backups were locked per phone or phonenubmers serial.  Anyhow IF you have no backup at all then you have lost everything.  There is software out there that can recover data on the phone that was deleted..  I would personally click restore on Itunes and restart over.  You cant get back what you lost that easy and software that does recover deleted data may not allways work 100% and costs money for the software..
    Lesson learned huh..

    Don't you just love changes in interfaces?
    I found the answer to my question.
    When you attach a device (iPhone, iPad) to your Mac, in iTunes 12 in appears as a tiny icon in the second "row" of the iTunes display. Click the icon and the familiar iTunes display for the device appears. From there, on the Summary screen, you can see the dates of the backups of the device (iCloud and backup to the computer). You can also use the button to backup to the computer.
