HT4113 hi my i phone is disabled and the computer im on has just had i tunes down loaded i have forgotten my pass word
how do i fix my phone from being disabled
Connect the iOS device to your computer and restore via iTunes. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
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: How to back up
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 iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Please turn off your caps lock.

Just tried installing an update to OSX Snow Leopard. Prior to trying to update OS, I was running V 10.6.3. During installation, it locked up. Although the screen tells me that the installation will be completed in less than one minute, that was two hours ago, and the computer won't permit me to shut it down via the power button, as I get an error sound. What do I do now? Help!
Hold the power key till it shuts down, it may take a little while, try holding it thru the warning.
Then if it shuts down restart and open Safari/Preferences, General tab, and set "Save Downloaded Files to:"
Select desktop, if desktop is not available in the the drop down menu, click other, then select Desktop from the column from the on the left.
Then download this:

This will download the "stand alone installer"
Click on the installer pkg and follow the prompts.
Hope this helps -
When i plug my 3rd generation ipod touch into my computer, itunes doesn't notice it, and the computer says it is just a digital camera. i can only see the images on it. Can anyone help?
Try
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
Before you reinstall the Apple software, also remove iCloud vi Control Panel Remove programs. The reinstall the Apple programs
New cable and different USB port?
Runs this and see if the results help with determine the cause

My phone is disabled and wont connect to itunes haven't had
My twin daughters have disabled my phone before and I would just wait out the 5-60 minutes, however now my phone sayd IPhone is desabled connect to itunes. I never updated my phone when I recieved the 5. It wont even recognive the phone and it is my only phone and I cannot get anyone from apple to call me back without the IME number which I cant get thanks to not being able to turn on my phone. PLEASE HELP!!!
If you never backed it up, then you will have to try recovery or DFU mode and restore it as a new device. There is no way around it. If it was not backed up, everything on the phone will be lost.

Itunes is not recognizing my Ipad. I tried to restore the Ipad settings when the syncing wasn't working - well Itunes was getting stuck and wasn't responding. Now the IPad icon isn't showing up in Itunes when I connect.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely. Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again. -
How can i factory reset my iphone 4??? I bought it used. And I can't do anything other than emergcy calls. Pls help
You can force the phone into recovery mode, & restore it, as described here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
However, if locked with a passcode, I suspect you purchased a stolen phone. If this phone is running iOS 7.0 or higher, you will never be able to use it for anything other than as a paperweight...you wasted your money. -
I have had to compleatly restore my computer and lost my Itunes. I now want to transfer my phone music libry to the computer again is this possible without wiping it?
So you have all you music on the iPhone, right? and you want to transfer FROM the iPhone TO the computer?
You can't do that with iTunes as far as i know, but you could probably get by that going through "this computer" or something.. I'm not sure, but technically it should be possible.
good luck! -
Hi, my phone is disabled and it wont open and i restored it already
hi, my phone is disabled and it wont open and i restored it already
Hi,
You will need to do a restore while in DFU mode.
The easiest way to find out how to put your iPhone into DFU is to Google it and see for yourself.

My phone is disabled and I have forgotten my passcode, need help unlocking my phone
If you set up Find My iPhone (iPad/iPod), then it has the Activation Lock on it and I believe you'll have to erase the device through iCloud first:

You can then restore it:
