I am locked out of my iphone 5 after upgrading to ios7

I have upgraded my iphone 5 to ios7 and have been locked out. Can someone advise on how to unlock this. I have icloud back up.

iOS 7 prompts you to create a passcode after updating. You can skip this step but the option is not prominently displayed. It would have looked like this:
If you can not remember what you entered then you will need to follow the instructions in the link I initially posted.

    Hey yly_gatsby,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues charging your iPhone. The following article may help to resolve your issue:

    1. Verify that the outlet being used is working.
    2. Try another USB power adapter if available.
    3. If no other USB power adapter is available, try connecting to a high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be turned on and not in sleep or standby mode.
    4. Try another USB cable if available.
    Thanks,

  • Cannot send email from my iPhone after upgrade to iOS7?

    Since I did the first upgrade I receive my incoming email on my iPhone but for outgoing email it gives me a message that the username or password is wrong for SMTP.live.com

    Try removing the account, and add it again..
    If it still persist, contact the server provider of the email, and ask for the proper info to set it up.
    Regards.

    I am locked out of my iphone. In resetting my passcode I must have hit a wrong digit, because the 4 digits I thought I used Don't work (and of course not my old passcode). I have tried the instructions both for "if you have previously synced your device with iTunes" and "If you have Never synced your device with iTunes" . Neither has worked and I'm in a vicious circle with each time after lengthy downloads it still all ends with the program, & my phone, asking for my passcode to proceed.  I'm not sure if I have ever synced to my mac book (i may have) but my address book seems to automatically update on both devices without the need to plug in. Thank you for any knowledgable help that could efficiently get me  out of this passcode ****!

    Hi DRussell,
    If you have not sync'd your device to your Mac then you will have to force the phone into recovery mode and restore as a new device. Read the information in this link and follow the instructions to recover the phone:

  • I was recently locked out from my iPhone.

    I was recently locked out from my iPhone. I dont want to wipe it totally though. Help?

    The only methods are described in the this article.  Your data will be erased, but if you backed up your phone to either iCloud or iTunes, you can then restore the backup with your data.

  • Locked out of my iPhone 4 but iTunes won't let me restore it. Help!

    I'm locked out of my iPhone 4 but when I try to connect it to iTunes to unlock and restore it, iTunes is requiring me to enter my passcode on my phone, which the phone won't let me do because I'm locked out. Help please!?

    You need to restore using the computer you previouisly synced with, otherwise you'll be asked for the passcode.
    You didn't forget your passcode (that you use every day) AND lose the computer you sync with on the same day, right?  In that case, get the passcode from the phone's actual owner, or use recovery mode.

  • HT4972 Im locked out of my Iphone 4 help me cant restore

    PLEASE someone help Im locked out of my iphone 4 the password is not the one i thought so can i byepass the passcode with out restore

    1. Start iTunes on your computer (be sure it's up to date).
    2. Plug cable into USB port on the computer, not an external hub or keyboard port.
    3. Connect cable to phone.
    4. Press both home and power buttons until the Apple logo appears, then continue pressing the home button alone until iTunes detects the phone in recovery mode.

    I am locked out of my Iphone. It says to log into my itunes to unlock. I log into my itunes and it says to put my password into my phone but I can't it just goes to the emergency call, How do I unlock my phone?

    Place the iPhone into Recovery mode. If successful, this will require restoring the iPhone with iTunes which is required anyway in this situation.

    Hey there byambar,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you’re describing two issues, the first issue is related to the Zoom accessibility feature and the second issue is related to the device being disabled.
    Take a look at the article linked below to learn more about Zoom and the other accessibility features on your iPhone 5.

  • I got locked out of my iphone and it says i had to connect to itunes but how do i fix it now

    i got locked out of my iphone and it said i had to come to itunes to fix this and now i cant figure out how to reenable my iphone can anybody help me?

    Start iTunes on the computer you used to setup/backup the iPhone, connect the USB end of the cable to the computer, then while holding the home button on the iPhone connect the dock connector end to the iPhone.  That will put you in recovery mode and iTunes should see the iPhone.  Then proceed to restore from backup as that will remove the passcode and allow you to access the iPhone.

  • Why the iPhone 4 16GB drains out the battery faster after upgrading to ios 5?

    Why the iPhone 4 16GB drains out the battery faster after upgrading to ios 5?

    Not sure, but try this:
    Let the battery drain to below 20% (I went to about 14%).
    Plug your phone in and leave it to charge COMPLETELY. This took my phone somewhere around 4 hours to complete.
    When you're done, you may have better luck keeping a charge.
    iOS 5 adds a lot of additional communication, and every time you connect wirelessly to anything, more power is used. Even so, some people report that a battery cycle like this helps. It seems to have worked for me.

  • Find My iPhone app changed account after upgrade to IOS7.

    We have 4 iPhones, and we had created a separate iCloud account for the Find My iPhone app.
    After Upgrading to IOS7, my iPhones Find My iPhone app is now tied to my other iCloud account, and will not allow me to change it back.  What's up with this?

  • ITunes does not work om iPhone 5 after upgrade to iOs7. App store is available without problems. do somone have a tip?

    Check Settings > General > Restrictions, and check out Contacts toward the bottom under the privacy restrictions.
    That sounds like the probable cause you cannot add contacts.
    Regarding the iCloud behavior, that sounds like it got huge (35,000) because of incorporating other contacts (from social media, perhaps).  Also contacts sync has nothing to do with iCloud behavior.  The whole idea of keeping your contacts in the cloud is that once you change them on one device, they change everywhere.  Specific syncs are not relevant.

    How come calandras and contacts vanish from iPhone after upgrade to iTunes 6.1.2?

    Hi, Did you work out a fix for this?  All my calender dates (past & future) and the last 12 months of new contacts gone!!!!   And yes i too back up regularly. 
    Previously when the great 5 upgrade happened, i did loss everything, and although I was doing backups none of that info was relative in an English way. A whole life of important, unreplaceable information gone!  Never to be found.
    All of my products are apple, but it seems that little people dont matter to them, with no recourse for the damage to my personal or professional life.
    Extremly disappointed again!
