HT201441 Once I updated my phone 4 of 2 years it asked for a pass code but it did not ask for one to be installed, I am the only owner of this iPhone, is there anyway to unlock and set a new passcode?! Please help!
Apple needs to either tell me how to unlock it or ship me another iPhone 4 32gb.
Hello Stina36,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
I'm sorry to hear about the issue you're phone is having. I did however find this support article that has great steps for you to go through in order to try and resolve this issue:
iOS: If you can't back up or restore from a backup in iTunes

Take care,

help!!!!! i just uploaded 2 days ago the new 7 update to my phone , then yesterday morning , it said disabled and asked me for my pass code . I couldnt remember what it was , so after trying different ones it finally locked me out for good. how do i fix this !!!!!!?????
If your phone is disabled from entering the wrong passcode too many times you'll have to restore it to remove the passcode, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212.

I updated my 4s to the latest update. Worked fine yesterday and this morning I'm totally locke. It's demanding a passcode and I don't think I ever had a passcode. How do I find it? I need my phone desperately for my business. I am the only owner of this phone. Help!!
You cannot retrieve passcode if you forget.
The only way is to wipe iPhone through iCloud and then restore from backup.

Everytime i plug my phone into itunes it says it cant connect because the phone is locked well i restored my phone twice and set a new passcode the last time and it still wont work . I even deleted itunes and reinstalled it , it dosent work . HELP PLZ !!
I had the same issue. I tried everything unchecking / rechecking, formatting Iphone and restoring from backup etc etc.
In the end it was a simple issue which might of might not help you.
A number of months ago I relocated by Itunes folder to a NAS drive. It appears when I did the last I tunes update Itunes set the destination path of the Itunes media to the default location, the result was Itunes couldn't install music,apps, video until I set the correct destination path.
The bit that confused me was it was transferring some media. This was of course the media I had downloaded since the last Itunes update which had gone to the default location.
I hope that makes sense and is off some help. -

I have an iphone 4s ios 6 never locked and i cant activate it please help me
i have an iphone 4s ios 6 never locked and i cant activate it please help me
No I cant do that as soon as I disconnect the usb plug it goes blank and when I connect it to my pc it doesn't light up so I assume it wont take a charge from my pc. When its charging from the plug and lights up it wont let me do anything it just says connect to ITunes and configure in all languages so at least its teaching me new languages lol :-]

Hi, I got a virus that does not let me use Safari. I downloaded an av from the app.store but it did not detect anything. I am thinking in formatting the HD. How can I do it and will I lose?
1. Force Quit .
Press command + option + esc keys together at the same time. Wait.
When Force Quit window appears, select the Safari if not already.
Press Force Quit button at the bottom of the window. Wait.
Safari will quit.
Relaunch Safari holding the shift key down.
2. Safari > Preferences > Extensions
Turn those off and try Safari.
3. Safari > Preferences > Privacy > Cookies and other website data:
Press “Remove all website data” button.
4. If adware is installed without your knowledge,
download free AdwareMedic by clicking “Download ” from here
http://www.adwaremedic.com
Install , open, and run it by clicking “Scan for Adware” button to remove adware.
Once done scanning and removing the adware, quit the app by clicking AdMedic in the menubar

ince updating my firefox browser whenever i click on an internet link in an email it does not open on firefox athough my mac switches to the firefox window as i have this set to be my default browser- what should i do?
I have the same problem, and I also wondered if Google toolbar has anything to do with it. There GMAIL was set as the default mail application at first. I have removed that setting, but Firefox 4.0.1 continues to use GMAIL instead of Outlook which is my selection for mailto handling.

"Restrictions" suddenly turned "on" with unknown passcode.
No one had access to my iphone
how do I unlock "Restrictions"First, the restrictions would NEVER turn on by itself. And second, this is a passcode set up manually by the user. If you can't remember, the only way to remove this is restoring your iPhone to factory conditions using iTunes.

Where - from what retailer - in what country did you purchase this iPhone?
With which wireless provider in what country are you attempting to use it?
Locked sims are a function of the wireless provider - contact them. -
I cleared a conversation in my messages. I do not delete. How do I get all the messages back from this sender?
Clearing a conversation is the same as deleting the messages, so unfortunately they're gone. You could always restore from a previous backup, but you would lose anything that you've added/changed etc on your phone between the last time you synced your phone and now.

I just received the new OS 6.0 update and it did not load Siri? Anyone know what I need to do to get Siri?
That is what I said. Siri is only on the iPhone 4s, iPhone 5, iPod Touch 5th Generation and new iPad (3). They all have advanced noise reduction/voice recognition hardware that is not included in other models.

Yeah, I just got the iphone on friday so I'm going to be one of those people..
I was holding the phone while I was helping my sister get the dogs settled in the car and I must have been pressing onto the camera icon and I didn't even realise it until I looked down after a few minutes and the icon was gone. I was just hoping someone could help me out with that. Please and thank you.
KellieGo to settings, general - restrictions - camera....make sure it is turned on. I did the same thing with my camera icon and this step fixed it.
