How do I reset my Iphone?

How do I unlock my iphone by resetting it when my itunes won't let me because findmyiphone is'nt turned off on the phone and no matter how many times I try to turn it off using the Icloud app on my macbook pro, my itunes (on the macbook pro) still doesn't let me reset it.

Fixed it, just had to do a lot of complicated hard stuff that didnt work the first time.

    Thanks for your reply. Having read through relevant topics it suggests that if I sync my iphone with the correct account on my pc it should use that one thereafter. i will try both.

  • Apple technical support *****. Can't even tell me how to hard reset my iPhone. I have to pay $300 to get an answer.

    Can anyone tell me how to hard reset an iPhone? Thanks!

    Apple Technical Support does not **** if you are within warranty or paid for AppleCare. Otherwise, you are expecting something for free when everyone else was required to pay. In my opinion, that would ****.
    Apple's website has plenty of knowledgebase articles that you can access for free. You can try it too. I searched the Internet for iphone reset and here is one of the top hits:

    There are also the forums (i.e., here) where other users are more than willing to volunteer their time to help you solve issues.

  • How can i reset my iphone without update to ios 7.0.6

    how can i reset my iphone without update to ios 7.0.6

    You can wipe the device without updating:
    Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content & Settings
    I would be remiss not to mention that iOS 7.0.6 patches a security flaw.
    If you choose not to update, your device will be at risk.

  • How do i reset my iphone 4s to manufactirers

    How do I reset my iphone 4s to manufacrurers? and also in settings, reset button in the$ general the phone require passcode. where can I get the passcode as well?

    If you forgot your iPhone passcode you can bypass the lock screen completely and reset the passcode by using iPhone recovery mode.
    Warning: This will require you to restore your iPhone or iPod touch, this means you’ll lose all data on the device and be back to factory settings.
    Bypass & Reset the iPhone Passcode
    Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, leave the other end connected to your Mac/PC
    Launch iTunes
    Press and hold the Home and Power button on the top of the iPhone to turn off the device
    Press and continue to hold the Home button while you reconnect the USB cable to your iPhone, this will cause the iPhone to turn on
    Continue to hold the Home button until an alert message in iTunes appears that an iPhone in recovery mode has been detected
    Now that the iPhone is in recovery mode, you must restore the device:
    From iTunes, look under the “Summary” tab
    Click on the “Restore” button within iTunes
    This will wipe all files, settings, and apps from the iPhone, including the passcode. When the restore is finished, the iPhone will be at the factory settings. At this point you can choose to start from scratch or to restore the iPhone from a backup.

    You'll have to restore your phone as a new device in iTunes or Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings to remove the restrictions passcode if you cannot remember it. Restoring from backup will merely continue to restore it.

  • HT201401 How can i reset my iphone if the Sleep/Wake button does not work?

    My camera shuts off every time that I try to take a picture. I would like to reset my IPhone in order to try and solve the problem. My Sleep/Wake button does not work.
    How can I reset my IPhone without the Sleep/Wake Button working?
    Thanks for the help.

    When pressing the sheep/wake button, the iPhone's screen is not turned off if on and does not turn on if off, and pressing and holding the sleep/wake or on/off button does not bring up slide to power off?
    And you can't do a reset by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release?
    If so and there is no change after restoring the iPhone with iTunes, make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby since more than likely there is a hardware problem.

  • HT1212 How can i reset my iphone 4s if i forgot my restriction passcode and apple id password and security question answer

    Hello guys..
    How can i reset my iphone 4s IF i forgot my restriction passcode, and apple id password AND security question answer?..
    AND I also forgot the email that i used to create the apple id.. Thats why i cant reset my password using the "email authentication"...
    PLEASE HELP.. Thanks... I cant use my iphone properly.. im stock with my OLD Apple id..

    Its simple - if you honestly cannot remember a single piece of security information associated with the account, or even the name of the AppleID itself, the only possability of help is to call Apple and ask them if there is anything they can do.  There is nothing anyone here or elsewhere can possible do to help you.
    Apple offers several means of ensuring you can recover an account or AppleID, but if you cannot remember a single one of those security features, then only Apple can, if at all possible, help you and only then if you pick up a telephone and talk to them.
    The strong odds are that even Apple will not help you.  I know that with the two step verification option, if you cannot at least remember two of the three security features used with that system, they will tell you the account is simply lost to your for good.  They can only be help responsible for helping you recover information up to a point - at some point, it all comes down to you remebering at least some of your own information.
