    I forgot my Iphone 5s passcode, its now asking me to connect to itunes, because its been blocked for the last 3 hours, what to do?

    Connect the iPhone to the computer you usually sync with and use iTunes
    on that computer to restore your iPhone. Then reinstall your information from
    iCloud/backup/where ever you keep your copy of the data on your iPhone.

    If you forgot the passcode, you'll have to restore it to remove the passcode, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212.  If it is running iOS 7 with Find My iPhone enabled, you'll have to force it into recovery mode in order to restore it, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 (or erase it using Find My iPhone on icloud.com).

    I forgot my iphone 5 passcode. What do i do?

    Either force the phone into recovery mode, as described here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    Or, login to iCloud.com, on your computer, locate the phone, then erase it.
    Either will remove the passcode.

  • I forgot my iPhone 5 passcode..how to back it up to itunes without the passcode?

    I changed my iPhone 5 passcode recently because my friend knew my old one & was going through my phone, so I changed it, but I forgot it.
    Now it's disabled & says to connect to itunes. I try to connect it to iTunes & it doesnt connect unless I enter my passcode, which is kind of dumb, how does that help me?
    So now I know I have to restore my phone (unfortunately), and apparently that is the only way I can fix this.
    Now, I really don't want to lose everything on my phone, contacts, photos, music, etc. so I'd like to back it up onto iTunes on my PC, but I can't because in order to do that I need to know the passcode. Now I can't try to remember it because it doesnt give me hour restrictions to enter my passcode again anymore. How do I back everything up or sync it to my computer without the passcode? Is there anything Apple can do about it?
    I don't use iCloud because people used to be able to get into it and save my personal photos and stuff.
    thank you.

    No apple can't do anything to help you.
    You should already be backing up your phone on a regular basis, not when an accident occurs.

  • I forgot my iphone 6 passcode

    I have forgotten my iphone 6 passcode and I have tried to restore the phone in both iTunes and icloud. The problem is that I never connected it with icloud or iTunes. Every time I try to restore it on iTunes it either tells me I need to enter the passcode (which I don't know) or it says that the disc is full. Im not sure what it means when it says that.  This is a new phone I received for work and I don't use the phone on weekends so when I turned it on today it asked for my passcode which I have forgotten. Please help!

    You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
    You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.

  • HT1766 I forgot my iphone "word" passcode

    Hi, I am writing to ask how I can reset or change my iphone 5c passcode; without having to restore my phone settings. My daughter suggested I set-up a password to protect my phone, however, I am unable to remember to what it is!!  I set-up the word passcode, so it would be harder for a stranger to get into my phone, but now I am the one who can't get in. Please Help!! Thank you

    Re: Forgot Password iPhone iOS7
    Oct 2, 2013 8:01 PM (in response to Ocean20)
    For the record, AFAIK, with iPhones running iOS7.0, and Activation Lock active, there are only two ways to remove a forgotten passcode: 1. Force the phone into recovery mode & restore it...any computer can be used; 2. Login to iCloud.com, from any computer, and erase the phone. Once done, the phone can be restored from backup, if a backup exists. Either method requires knowing the original Apple ID/Password, that was originally used to activate the phone.
    There is another complication I've run into: The Sim pin. There are carriers that still require sim pins. If the phone has a sim pin, you'll be stuck in a catch 22, in that you can't activate the phone without removing the sim pin, but removing requires the phone be activated. Only solution I'm aware of is to either borrow a sim without a sim pin, or get a new sim from your carrier.

  • I forgot my iPhone 5s passcode

    Hey so my mom gave me her old friends iPhone 5s, and I want to start using it as my daily phone but there's a passcode!? How do I unlock it without using a computer? Because I have no access to a computer.. And also will it work if I take out my iPhone 5c sim and put the sim into the 5s?

    Follow the instructions here: Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support
    You should probably check to see if it is activation locked. https://www.icloud.com/activationlock/
    If it is, you will not be able to activate it until the owner of the account it's locked with removes the lock.

  • Forgot my iphone 4s passcode

    what is the mechanism to reset my passcode that i fogot?  i've seen many youtube versions on how to reset it by connecting to computer.  will this process really reset the phone and will contacts remain?

    If you use iCloud, your contacts will be synced there, so you can restore the phone without losing them. If you have previously backed up your phone to the computer (in most cases, this happens automatically whenever you connect to iTunes), then they should be available in the backup (even if it's not current, at least you will start with most of your contacts, instead of none). If you have previously synced this device with your computer, iTunes should allow you to use that same computer to make a backup before restoring it. See "If you have previously synced your device with iTunes" in this article.

  • Forgot my iphone 5 passcode

    How do I unlock without restoring it?

    There is no way to unlock your phone without restoring it. You can, however, restore it from a backup.
    If you have an iTunes backup:
    1. Open iTunes and turn off your iPhone
    2. Hold down the home button and plug your iPhone into your computer
    3. iTunes will say that it detects a phone in recovery mode
    4. Restore the iPhone from your iTunes backup
    If you have an iCloud backup:
    Do steps 1-3 but restore as new instead of from backup
    It will prompt you to set your phone up (on your iPhone, not on iTunes)
    Select the restore from iCloud option
