How to unlock the iphone if i forgot it

how do you unlock my iphone if you forgot it

Options for when an iOS device gets locked because of forgotten password:
Restore (and reset password) on your device by connecting it to the last computer to which it was connected:
iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
If you cannot connect it to the computer to which the device was last connected you will have to use recovery mode to completely reset the device, losing all data:
iOS: Unable to update or restore - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 - recovery mode (e.g., cannot connect to computer last used to sync device, iTunes still asks for a password)

    i bought an iphone 5 which is pay as you go from the apple store at last year, but i cant use the local sim card when i back to china.

    ONLY the carrier to which it is locked can do this.

    Apple does not do this.
    ONLY the carrier to which it is locked can unlock it.
    You must contact that carrier.

    i really need help

    The only way to remove a passcode from a device is to restore it. I would back the device up as it is in itunes and then restore. Then restore from the backup and see if the passcode has been removed. This method occasionaly works. If it doesn't and you are still stuck with the pass code, you will need to restore as new. This articel will provide additional information on how to accomplish this:

  • HT201441 how to unlock the iphone when it is relatd to other previous user apple id

    how to  Removing a device from a previous owner’s account

    Nobody on these boards can do that. Until the previous owner removes the activation lock, the device is useless to you; Apple won't remove it unless presented with the original receipt of purchase, and unless you're the registered owner, proof that they're dead.

  • How can i unlock my unlock my iphone 4 i forgot the password?

    how can i unlock my iphone 4 i forgot the password?

    If you have a passcode to the screen lock that you've forgotten, restore the device from the computer to which the device is synced. For information and instructions, see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    If that will not work, you'll need to put the device into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    If your device is running iOS 7 and you set up Find My iPhone, you'll need to enter in your Apple ID and password to activate the device after restoring:

    how to unlock my iphone 5 when i forgot my passcode it keeps saying I have to shut off Fine my phone but I cant because I cant get into my phone.

    If you locked the iPhone through Find My iPhone, you should be able to unlock it with the passcode you entered when you locked the iPhone through iCloud, or it's existing screenlock passcode if you had one set. This is not working for you?
