HT4623 My Iphone 4 has locked me out. Can see my homescreen but the slide will not open to keypad to unlock. Sometimes I can hit enough things where the keypad will show up but the password will not go in unless I hit each number twice. Strange boxes on s
My Iphone 4 has locked me out. Homescreen will show up but cannot get slider to open keypad. SOmetimes if I tap enough things the key pad will display. When I enter the passcode it will not register. If I hit each passcode number twice it will register but then tells me I have the wrong code. I also have boxes and rectangles that appear to highlight items which never used to come up. Anyone have any experience with something like this?
Wow! Its impressive for you to load iOS 4.2 onto the iPhone 4S. How did you do that?
Moving along, press and hold both the power button and home button together for about 10 seconds. Then, press the power putton to turn it back on.

My iphone has locked me out....
my iphone has locked me out but will still allow me to use siri, how do i get it to let me back in? Also the phone will not let me power off and the reset of holding the home and sleep button will not work...HELP please!!!
Try reseting the phone, then connect it to Itunes and , Use "Help" run Diagnostics from the Itunes menu to check
communication between the Phone and Itunes.
If you are using a firewall such as Zone Alarm or similar check that it's no preventing communication between the Iphone and Itunes. Turn it off or if you can make sure that the correct communication ports are open.
good luck -
My ipad has locked me out. It says ipad hasnt been backed up. Needs to be plugged in, locked, and connected to wifi. It won't let me do anything. How do I fix it?
Try this - Reset 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 - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

hi I have forgotten my power on password and now Ipad has locked me out saying contact I tunes , I have tried doing this nbut it says i need pass code so basically going round in circles.
Place your iPad into recovery mode, which will require restoring your iPad with iTunes which is required when forgetting the Passcode Lock.

My daughter forgot her password and now her ipod has locked her out ir says disabled connect to itunes. The computer she last synced to has crashed. How can I unlock this ipod?
The device will have to be restored but without the last computer it was synced to, that's not a possibility.
Take the iPod to an Apple store or Apple certified repair shop.
You will need a computer in order to sync, restore, and update the iPod in the future.
"If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it."

I set up an apple id for my 12 year old, a verfication email was sent, but google has locked her out because of age. How do I get the verfication email?
Should each person in my house have their own apple id and password?
Can each of the different ID's be linked back to my apple account so that when they purchase apps and music it will be charged to my credit card?alyssa1105 wrote:

Ask Google... they locked you out of the email account. -
i have a new email so have a new apple ID now and am trying to change it in icloud. but it has locked me out and won't send my email a reset password link for some reason. even though it says its sent, it doesnt come to the email address. help!
Welcome to the Apple community.
If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
You will need to show patience with the procedure and be prepared to demonstrate without question that the account belongs to you. Don’t expect access to be restored immediately and if you aren’t the owner of the Apple ID registered to the device the account won’t be reset.

my niece has locked herself out of her ipod touch. when i plug it into the computer with the usb cable, a message on itunes says i have to enter her passcode. her ipod will not allow me to do so. what next??
Disabled
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.

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 most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store -
