Hi, Elvira299. 
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
I understand your iPhone is disabled with an unknown passcode, the following article may help to resolve your issue:

  • After i installed ios7, my ipad ask for paascode that i never set it up with and now is locked. what should i do to unlock it !?

    My ipad after installing ios 7 is locked and asking for passcode that i never gave it to. what should i di to unlock it. Thnx

    Are your sure that the iPad is not asking you to CREATE a passcode. It will do this as part of the iOS 7 upgrade. If the device is truly asking for a passcode and it is now locked take a look at this Apple support page

  • Well I have a new macbook pro and there is a software update available and after i update it, it keeps asking for the same thing to update over and over again! What can be done?

    The App Store version sometimes gives problems. As you can't install 10.8.4 from the App Store, download and install the Combo edition > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1659?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US This edition will work and will update OS X to the most recent version, in that case, 10.8.4

  • I install the iOS 7 and the ipad asks for a code, I never put it a code

    I install the new ios7, the installation when witohout a problem, but in the gettin started part, the ipad asks for a code, I never put one, so I cannot use the ipad because of that.
    I can not restore it, because it aks me to go to adjust and shut down the find my ipad part, I can not get past the code.

    Here it is how I solve the issue. I downloaded the iOS 6.1.3 of my device and installed via ITunes. Then a message of error appear and the ipad when directly to restore mode. Then I Just restore it and That Was it.
    So I can tell That the Main issue is That iOS 7 does not have the restore mode option.
    You know the one where you press the home button, then the sleep button and release the home button.

  • IPad switches on and off after iOS update   cannot backup   no previous backups

    Hi,
    I would really appreciate some advice on this problem.
    My parents updated their iPad, and apparently it got stuck for hours, after which they switched the iPad off.
    From then on, the iPad keeps turning itself on and off, mostly showing the Apple logo, and sometimes the 'apps screen', but only lasting for at most 2 minutes before switching itself off again.
    The unfortunate thing is there is no backup on iTunes. I tried connecting the iPad to iTunes, and backing up, which happens for some time, but then got the following errors:
    1. iTunes cannot back up because backup is corrupt (checked other threads - there are actually no backups on the computer to be deleted);
    or
    2. iPad shuts down, causing the backup to stop. iPad turns back on itself, and backup restarts, but shuts down again after some time.
    I understand we can potentially restore the iPad to factory settings, but that means losing all the data on the iPad. Would like to know if anyone has ideas how to fix this issue, or at least save a backup?
    Thank you.

    I don't think this will work because from everything that you have stated, I believe that the iOS is corrupt and will need to be restored but did you reboot the iPad? You just never know....
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    You can't backup the device unless it is operational. It just will not work.

  • Cannot access itunes, asks for Safari upgrade

    As of today I cannot access the itunes store! It says I need version 4 or later for safari.
    My Macbook was upgraded to Leopard with a work licence years ago. When I checked the software version of this mac it says 10.5.
    Safari is 3.0.4.
    I downloaded the leopard update for Safari, but cannot use it. It says this
    "You cannot install Safari on this volume. This update requires Mac OS X 10.5.8 or newer."
    This is leopard isnt it?
    I always have problems installing updates, don't know why, but never bothered me as didnt stop me from doing anything until now.
    Any ideas how to fix this?

    How do i check what version 0f 10.5 I am on.
    click on the  menu at the left side of your menu bar and choose +about this Mac+
    When I click on the software it just says 10.5. Perhaps this version needs to be updated to a lesser version first?
    no, the combo updater will update any version of 10.5.x to 10.5.8.
    when was the last time you repaired permissions ? did you do any maintenance at all ?
    i suggest you run disk utility (in your applications > utilities folder) and click on +repair permissions+. does it report anything out of the ordinary ?
    if disk utility reports that it +finished successfully+ or so, restart your Mac and re-download the combo updater. double-click on the .dmg file to mount the disk image and run the installer. your Mac will re-boot after the install is done. run another +repair permissions+ using disk utility.
    also, you might want to download and install OnyX, which is +a multifunction utility for Mac OS X. it allows you to verify the Startup Disk and the structure of its System files, to run miscellaneous tasks of system maintenance.+ let OnyX run the maintenance scripts once a month.
    you can get the Leopard version of OnyX here.
    good luck !

  • Ipad asking for passcode but I dot have one

    I Have been locked out of my iPad mini. After updating it is asking for a passcode. I have never used a passcode before.

    Is your iPad new in the sense of being brand new or is it the latest generation?
    If you do not have very much on it you could connect it to iTunes on your computer (if you use one) and on the screen that pops up starting with the Summary tab click on the Restore button further down. Be sure to set it up as a new device? You will lose any saved data but at least it will unlock your device. Alternatively, you could could do it through Settings on your ipad. Either way, you my have to redownload your purchased apps again.

  • Can't get onto iPad asking for passcode never set one up

    I download ISO 7 yesterday and now can't get onto my iPad as it's asking for a passcode ...I haven't ever had a pass code or been asked.. Help?

    Does your screen look like this (below?).  My sister called me with the exact same problem after updating to iOS7 on her iPad Mini.  She was convinced she didn't have a passcode!  She hadn't realised that she'd set one up as part of the iOS7 upgrade, which you will have done by default unless you hit the 'skip' button on that stage of the setup.  Are you sure you didn't type something in whilst upgrading to iOS7 without realising this was going to be a passcode?  When I asked my sister to think back to what she'd done she remembered what she typing and unlocked the iPad using the same word!  I hope this helps

  • HT1222 Software update is available but asking for passcode which do not know. How i would know passcode?

    Pls suggest how would i know pass code or any default pass code for software update download

    No such thing as a "default" passcode.
    Any passcodes being asked for on a iDevice you have to manually set. So if you don't know it you need to find someone who does.
    The Passcode is probably your Apple ID password.

  • HT4623 After ios update on my ipad mini i am unable to connect to internet via cellular connection

    i Have update ios 7.0.2 on my ipad mini. But after update of ios 7.0.2 i am unable to connect to internet via cellulau connection. Cellular connection appears on my screen but i get error as "Could not activate cellular data network you are not subscribed to a cellular data service". Cellular connection was working prior to ios 7.0.2 update. Please help.

    GOT MINE FIXED -
    THE 7.0.3 update reported my iPhone as LOST or STOLEN  to Verizon.
    They suspended my iPhone service immediately (as I would expect them to) and THAT is why I couldn't get on.
    Called Verizon wireless - they restored me in 30 seconds - EVERYTHING WORKS AGAIN.
    They said "we've been doing this ALL MORNING."
    Hope this works for others, too!
    You blow bright orange chunks, Microsoft, er, I mean, Apple.

  • Trying restore my phone after the update and it's asking for a backup file password that I don't know.  Please help!

    After installing the latest update from apple my iPhone 4 will not complete the restore process with out a backup password.  I don't recall ever setting up a backup password and there is no help button if you can't find the password.  Apparently I'll loose all my data and have to set the phone up as a new phone.  This is very frustrating.

  • Can't update apps.  Ipad asking for password to old email address

    I I'd updated my email address several months ago.  The App Store app worked fine.  Now all of a sudden it's asking me to log in using the old email address and wants the old password.  In settings for both the App Store and iTunes are correct.  I can sign out and sign in from the settings menu but cannot update my apps through the App Store app itself.  This just started today.  How do I fix this?

    IIf you got the app with your old email you can not change it, you need to update it with your old one. If you get any app with one email you can only use one email. Even if you log into your new email from itunes( scroll under and click on the email and sign out and log in with new email) it still won't let you do it with your other email. Sorry. You can not use different emails for some things.      You can go to settings-iTunes and AppStore- update apps( it means it will automatically update apps) it does work, but uses a lot of battery usage. I hve had it on for a long time but I don't mind.   hope this helped.

  • New iPad asking for passcode but I never set one - how do I unlock a code never set?

    Just got my new iPad yesterday, have no kids or anyone else around who would mess with it while I'm in another room - go to wash the dishes, come back and it's asking me for a passcode to unlock. I had it running all last night - turned off, turn on, sync with macbook pro, blah blah blah, everything is great until tonight. What's going on? How do I unlock it?
