HT1212 My iPhone is disable but I've used the correct password ?
I had the iOS 7 and when I updated my phone to the iOS 7.0.4
It then asked me to set up a passcode so I did when I tried to unlocked my phone it didn't let me no it's disabled for too many attempts AND I KNOW IM USING THE RIGHT PASSCODE help please I really don't want to restore my phone
If it was the correct passcode, it would unlock. So, despite what you may think, it is not correct. However, once the phone is disabled, you have no choice but to restore. You will have to follow the instructions in this support document that you linked to the forum from. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212

The I cloud on mu IPAd keeps reverting to my old password so that I cannot get mail. Sometimes this happens on my iPhone as well. I type in the correct password in the iCloud account and mail account under settings but it always reverts back and preventsme from getting mail. Can only retrieve mail from i cloud on my competer. Thanks!!!
Why would you delete your iCloud account for a password change with your Yahoo account?
Regardless, if no problem re-creating your iCloud account on your iPad, contact Yahoo technical support. -
I have a jetpack, and when I try to "connect" to my ipad or phone, it keeps telling me I am not using the correct password. I have tried everything. I even changed the password, nothing is working. Both are 4G, my ipad is an Air and my phone is a Iphone 5. I can get connected to other wifi on these features but not with my jetpack. Please help, I need to use this feature soon. Thank you so much
Chances are you mis-typed a character in the Wifi password and the devices saved that information. Now whenever you try to connect the device refers to the wrong password and the Jetpack does not accept your connection. Tell your devices to forget the wireless connection and start over.
Once you enter the proper WiFi credentials the Jetpack will allow you to connect. -
"itunes could not restore the iphone because the password was incorrect" I know for a fact im using the correct password. and it has previously worked. is anyone else having this issue.
Hi, I also get the message "itunes could not restore the iphone because the password was incorrect" though I am never prompted to enter a password anywhere! Nor was the backup password encrypted to begin with! Really strange, any pointers will be greatly appriciated!

Granted, I have two Apple I.D's that I'm using, however I've been more than diligent when it comes to getting the correct password written down for each of the I.D,'s, and yet the system simply doesn't recognize them. When I log into this program on my desktop there's no issue at all, but on my iPhone 4S it's a different story.
Unable to send a camera roll photo via e-mail, yet it's no problem doing it as a text message. Anyone have some advice as to how I can rectify this?Are you saying you can't sign into your iCloud account?

my iphone has been disable . It happend during my trip from USA to INDIA. not able to go to home screen. Tried to connect to itunes but it says need to enter password first on iphone which i am not able to do as it is disabled. Need help.
Try a reset:
To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
If this doesn't work, restore it from a backup through iTunes. -
and i dont have a computer to downlaod itunes.
Disabled
Without iTunes:
If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone and use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of 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 after the device has been erased.
You can also wipe the iOS device by installing the FindMyiPhone app on another iOS device and using that app to wipe the device.
With iTunes
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode. -
Any suggestions?
Settings>iTunes/App Store...tap the ID shown, sign out, now sign back in. See if doing that fixes things.

My iPhone is disabled because my kids renter the wrong passcode, what can I do?
If the iPhone is showing the red disabled screen then you will need to connect the phone to the computer that you normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the phone and re-sync your content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the phone into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If you do it via a different computer then :
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. -

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

My iPhone had become disabled after someone attempted to unlock it an absurd number of times. It now says I must wait 3,600 minutes before I can unlock it. I have the correct password, but it will not let me enter it. Is there anyway I can bypass the 3,600 minutes?
Thanks for the reply! Unfortunately I'm pretty far away from the computer that I usually sync with. Also, I read that page and it was helpful other than the phone remained locked after restoring it. I've now restored it a couple of times and it is still telling me I must wait 3,600ish minutes until it will allow me to enter a passcode and unlock the phone. Any other suggestions?
