How do I get into my phone if the passcode isn't working?

I have tried my passcode and turned off my phone and back on and it isn't letting me use my phone. Please help!

You will have to restore via the recovery mode described in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • 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.

    Copy the iTunes folder from the disk to the Mac, and the iPhone backup to the right place on the Mac (Google for "iphone backup location"). Then when you restore you can reload the last backup.

    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).

    Thanks for replying, I'm a real techno-cretin.  What do you mean by not using the backup?  I'm busy trying to restore my new phone and it's doing a 6 hour download with updates.  Can I restore the data from my old phone backup onto the new iPhone 4S when the download is done?

    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 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:

  • 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 do i get into my phone if i have forgotten my passcode

    I have chnaged my passcode on my phone and I cannot remember it, what should i do?

    If you cannot remember the passcode for the Screen Lock, you will need to Restore the device...
    1)  Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and Restore...
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    2)  If necessary Place the Device into Recovery mode...
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    Make sure you have the Latest Version of iTunes (v11.1.5) Installed on your computer
    iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download

  • HT4865 How do I get into my phone when it wont recognize the password?

    My iphone will not recognize the password and keeps locking me out of my phone???
    Plus it has other languages coming up as well.

    If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode or Just Need to Restore Your Device
      1. iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
      2. iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
      3. iOS- Understanding passcodes
         If you have forgotten your Restrictions code, then follow the instructions
         below but DO NOT restore any previous backup. If you do then you will
         simply be restoring the old Restrictions code you have forgotten. This
         same warning applies if you need to restore a clean system.
    A Complete Guide to Restore or Recover Your iDevice (if You Forget Your Passcode)
    If you need to restore your device or ff you cannot remember the passcode, then you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
    Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
    Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
    Follow these steps to restore your device:
         1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
         2. Connect your device to your computer.
         3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
         4. Select the Summary tab.
         5. Select the Restore option.
         6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
             option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
             necessary to create another.
         7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
             you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
         8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
             logo while starting up:
               After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
              to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
              iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
              you see "iPhone is activated."
         9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup. If you do not have a
              backup to restore, then restore as New.
    If you are restoring to fix a forgotten Restrictions Code or as a New device, then skip Step 9 and restore as New.

  • I need to get into my phone, but the screen is completely unresponsive.

    I have the iPhone 4 and a few months ago, I dropped my phone and the screen shattered. Now the screen is completely unresponsive and I would like to access my contacts, texts, calls, etc.. Is there anyway I could get into all of that through iTunes or at least my computer?
    It's been this way for about a week and the texts and calls are flooding in and I can't even let these people know my phone doesn't work. Which *****.
    *I don't have the money to replace/fix my phone at the moment, so I need to find an alternative.
    Thanks.

    You cannot access the phone via the computer. You could try and backup the phone and try and access the backup via a 3rd party software, however most of them cost. Touchcopy is a good one to see the texts, but I'm not sure it will allow you to look at the call lists.
    I suggest you find a dumbphone so you can at least handle texts and call since you cannot afford to fix the device right now.
