I can not remember my passcode and do not have icloud installed, can i still use my laptop to backup up my files before resetting my phone?

i just saw the 60 minute warning and even though i confirmed my passcode it does not seem to be working, i am currently plugged into my laptop can i still save all my data like this or do i need to disable the phone first and then reset ?

hey thanks for your help, so now the phone is asking to be reconfigured , i am not picking up my wifi on the phone so im using the itunes on the laptop but having tried a couple times the only message i see it: Sorry we are unable to contiune with your activation at this time" on the itunes page. I'm in haiti but i dont c that as an option when selecting country or region on the phone so i have selected Jamaica as that is where i am from although the phone was a gift and im not sure where it was bought as the person died. Could this be a reason y i see the message on itunes?????

  • Can i still use Fast Web View for PDF/A files?

    Can i still use Fast Web View for PDF/A files?
    In other words, just becasue I am using PDF/A, can I still select the page i need in a long document and see it before the entire file has loaded?

    macjack has a very valid point, so you might want to consider a second drive for files.
    To partition, you need to boot into the Recovery Volume (command - R) on restart. Select Disk Utility.
    Step 1 - select the hard drive.
    Step 2 - select the Partition tab.
    Step 3 - select the current partition and then use the lower right corner to push up and resize the partition.
    Step 4 - click the plus sign to add a partition. Then select the new partition.
    Step 5 - Name the new partition and select the format. The one shown in the screen shot is generally recomended.
    Step 6 - Hit apply.
    This procedure can be reversed at a later date if you find your Time Machine backup needs more space.

  • If I set up secure shared disks with accounts, can i still use the time machine backup feature.

    I was setting up an account on the time capsule so I can have other people have their own private folder. My question is, Can I still back up my data on my time capsule by using time machine?

    Sorry the account feature is irrelevant.. You do not want to use it.. you can migrate your data to your computer.. The account feature is not needed, required, useful or anything to do with restoring your files..
    You use account access to stop everybody being able to see your files.. the problem is.. it is not itself secure.. so if i get hold of your TC I can delete your accounts with a soft reset and access all your files.. so it is useless.. don't bother using it.. ignore it.. !!
    If you wish to have secure backups use the Time Machine Encrypt backup feature.

  • If upgrade from CS2 to CS 3 can I still use GoLive ?

    If I upgrade from CS2 to CS3 with Dreamweaver, can I still use/run GoLive to maintain existing GoLive files for a time, until I make the transition ?, or once I install CS3 I need to transition right quick ?
    thanks if anyone knows the answer to this ... Laura

    > In my case, once I installed and activated CS3 my CS2 apps stopped working. Was GL CS2 excluded from this shutdown?
    What do you mean by stopped working? Did you get an error message when launching the apps?

  • HT1212 a friend gave me her iphone but could not remember her passcode and the phone is disable.  What can i do to reset the phone

    A friend gave me her old iphone 4 but could not remember the passcode and the phone is disabled.  How can I reset the passcode?

    In HT1212,
    If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer
    If you see one of following alerts, you need to erase the device:
    "iTunes could not connect to the [device] because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the [device] before it can be used with iTunes."
    "You haven't chosen to have [device] trust this computer"
    If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
    Alternatively, place the device in recovery mode and restore it to erase the device:
    Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to shut down.
    While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
    iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.

  • I have forgot my Iphone passcode. Itunes will not let me restore it, i do not have icloude,or find my iphone,and the closest itunes store is 4 hours away how can i unlock, or reset my phone?

    I have forgot my Iphone passcode. Itunes will not let me restore it, i do not have icloude,or find my iphone,and the closest itunes store is 4 hours away how can i unlock, or reset my phone?

    Try this:
    Placing your device into recovery (DFU-Device Firmware Upgrade) mode:
    Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
       1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
           other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
       2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
           until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
                  * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                    Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                    release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
      3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
           device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
           let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
           charge, and then start with step 2 again.
      4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
           When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
      5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
      6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
    Additional Information:
    If you have a problem getting into recovery mode then try: RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode.
    Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

  • My ipad is disabled and says connect to itunes. I dont know the passcode and I dont have access to a computer , can I restore it without connecting to itunes

    My ipad is disabled, I dont know the passcode and I dont have a computer to connect to itunes... is there anyway of reactivating ipad without connecting to itunes?

    Sorry but no. You will need to get access to a computer with iTunes somewhere to restore the iPad. You can get help with this at an Apple Store if you have them in your area. Note that if you haven't backed up your iPad to iCloud, you'll lose all your data. Apps and other purchases from the iTunes Store can probably be re-downloaded.
    Regards.

  • My daughter cant remember her passcode, and she has never synced it.  Is there any way to restore without losing all the apps and music?

    My daughter can't remember her passcode, and she has never synced it.  Is there any way to restore it without losing all the apps and music that were downloaded?

    If you can't remember the Passcode, you need to restore the device from the computer it was last synced with.
    Follow the instructions for putting the device in recovery mode >  iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    If you are a resident of the U.S., have iTunes 10.3 or later installed, and iOS 4.3.3 or later, can re download iTunes purchases for free.
    So retore the iPod, then re download the iTunes media.
