How to restore the information for disabled iPhone 4 because battery discharged fully and no sync with iTune.

Hi;
I need to restore the information from disabled iPhone 4 because it went out of battery. I do know the passcode, but the phone is not showing the numbers to dial it. What is important for me is the data and not the phone. Below is the details of the phone:
1. Phone info:
iPhone 4
iOS version: not sure
Passcode: Known to me
2. Objective: To restore the data from the phone (Contacts, messages, files, ...etc)
3. Current Status:
i. Phone screen Content:
"iPhone is disabled"
"connect to iTune",
received sms,
"slide for emergency"
*******no passcode keyboard or dials!********
ii. Connect to iTunes status
- receive this message:" iTunes could not connect to the iPhone "xxxxxx's iPhone" because it is locked with a passcode. you must enter your passcode on the iPhone before it can be used with iTunes".
**********Passcode is known but no mean to enter it from iTune or from iPhone! *********
no appearance of iPhone in the sidebar
4. Reason for the issue:
i.I left the phone without SIM in a safe for a while. it has daily alarm. it seams that the battery drained completely and when I charged I got this status.
ii. I normally don't connect (sync) my mobile to computer. I may have couple of sync but they are outdated in one hand and in the other hand I really need the information after I took them. Further, the machine is formatted where I kept the sync. So practically they are not existing.

It's not possible to selectively restore parts of the backup - it's all or none. If you had been syncing your contacts, calendar and notes to iCloud or an app on your computer, just sync them back - it's automatic with iCloud if you set this in settings.
Your in-app history and data was contained in the backup you aren't using. There's no way to retrieve them without restoring the entire backup. For all you know, the problem causing the overheating was corrupted app data that you don't want back in the phone.

How can restore the ipad is disabled.....

How can restore the ipad is disabled.....

Hi,
just thought I would put my two cents worth in.
I recently had an 89 year old friend disable her ipad and so as she had never backed it up to iTunes etc, had to do the system restore.
This stuck on me several times and despite using the steps in:
Read This: If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
It got to a point where after the 80 odd minutes got to - Processing file please wait - well after waiting over night and still no joy and trying other pc's in case it was the PC, I resorted to ringing apple care. They were great..
It turned out that the file had actually downloaded but hadn't extracted. So what we did was simply take the lightening cable out of the ipad and as I put it back in, instead of just holding the home key down, held the on/off switch down at the same time as well as the home key ( a bit of juggling to do all three at the same time) but then the iTunes screen changed to say extracting and from there away it went. The apple logo came up on the ipad and it restored as normal - maybe about 20 mins. Whilst we lost all previous data, it was not a big deal to get some back from the app store etc. But If I had thought or known to try that step it may have saved me about 5 hours of wasted time.
So if this can help anyone else you then great.

How much is the cost for replacing iphone 4 display?

how much is the cost for replacing iphone 4 display?

Apple will replace it, and the replacement comes with a 90-day warranty.
There are some legitimate, high quality repair centers that often can fix phones for less than replacement cost and offer at least 90 warranty...
Or maybe the OP knows that the broken display is not covered under warranty, which is why he was asking for the cost, but he still may have a warranty that just wouldn't cover him in this case.
The warranty is all or none. If the phone were damaged so as to void warranty coverage on the display, there is no remaining warranty on the rest of the device.

You should have signed in with that address in the first place, but there is a workaround: go to System preferences>Mail, Contacts@ Calendars and add your @me.com address as an account there.

"could not be synced because the sync server failed to sync the iphone"

googled it, and it's so confusing @.@

There is definitely a problem with iTunes 10.5 and iOS 5.0 syncing correctly. I've seen lots of workarounds on the forums here. Just search for it and see if you can come up with something that works.

Maybe it's the cable. Try with another one. Or may also be iTunes. Try Reinstalling it.

i can manually sync from phone or iTunes on MacBook but will not auto sync.
have latest versions of IOS8, OSX Yosemite and ITunes 12.

Good day dexv,
There are three conditions that must be met in order for an iPhone to sync automatically over Wi-Fi. It sounds as if you have met one of them, can you check to see if the other two are met as well?
See this article -
Sync your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch with iTunes using Wi-Fi - Apple Support
The iOS device will sync automatically when the following conditions are true:
The iOS device is charging.
iTunes is open on the computer.
The iOS device and the computer are on the same Wi-Fi network.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Safe computing,
Brett L

IPhone 4s reboots many times when trying to sync with iTunes

iPhone 4s reboots many times when trying to sync with iTunes.
Since IOS 8, my iPhone 4s reboots many times when trying to sync with iTunes on my Mac. It will start running the backup and reboot, it will reboot many times when updating packages. It can take 12 hours to finish a sync with the mac. The phone gets hot during this. I keep deleting more and more pictures and apps, hoping that maybe it doesn't have enough space, but iTunes shows I have 4.9 Gbytes free, which I think should be enough. I am on IOS 8.0.2, I thought maybe I would try to upgrade to the latest IOS today, but I am worried that I will end up with a non working phone.
Is anyone else having these problems?
Ed

Well thats Od... I have never experienced that problem.. Maybe you should try to backup your phone and then wipe it by going to Settings<General<Reset

I had this problem. I held down the power switch to power down completely. Takes a few seconds. Then use the power switch to turn on. Might take a couple goes.

Welcome to the Apple community.
The best way to achieve this is to connect your phone to iTunes on your computer using a USB cable. Then choose the restore option from the iTunes application and upon restart choose to restore from your eye cloud backup.

Any one knows how to have 2 libraries for your iphone 4, one in an iMac and other in an MacBook pro ?

Hi, does any one knows how can i have 2 libraries for my iphone 4, one in my iMac and the same apps in my MacBook Pro ?????
can i only have one library ????
do i have to delete my library from one of my Macs?
thanks so much.
everything is very easy on Mac but transfering your contacts, apps, music and other info is so hard !!!!!
they should fix this problems for all the users .

Iphone will sync itunes contacts and pics with one and only one computer at a time if you sync to another, it will indeed erase the current content and replace with content from the new library.

If I sync phone with ipad is it likely to work safely to retrieve info as both are apple devices?.

ps when syncing it jumps through steps 1 - 4 real fast, i seem to remeber iphone showing the number of tracks transferring and names, but i see nothing? then it sits on 5 saying "waiting for changes to be applied"

HT1386 When an iPhone is plugged into the wall outlet and is synced with iTunes, does the phone need to be ejected on iTunes like it would be if connected to the computer, or is it just fine to disconnect from the wall?

I am wondering if I need to eject my iPhone from iTunes or if it is fine to unplug the phone without ejecting.

If it's connected to your computer and synced with iTunes you should eject it. If it's only plugged into a wall outlet and not your computer, just unplug it (since there's nothing to eject it from).
