I forgot my passcode and I dont want to restore it because I have no back up. Help?
Hello,
I recently changed my passcode and i instantly forgot it as i tried to unlock my iphone.
And I honestly dont want to restore it, because I will lose everything, especially my 3,000 photos and I cant risk that.
I havent used my iphone for days, because i rather have it like this than restore it and lose everything. I am waiting for a solution.
So what can I do?
Please, I cant lose everything!
Is there a way to hack it or something like that?
Like hacking my photos and then restore it?
All im asking, is there any possible way i can get my stuff back, most importantly my photos.
Please Help!
I've heard I can get my iphoned unlocked.
P.S I have my phone now on, "connect to itunes"
Thanks

You've already lost ALL data on your phone. There is nothing to recover.

If you do not know the passcode, then you will have to restore.

New laptop, and I dont want to loose what i already have on my Ipod, help?
I have installed Itunes, I have synched and synched again, pushed every button on the ipod and in my library, and cant seem to get them to talk to each other. (other then my ipod saying that it is in fact synching) when i first plug my ipod in to my computer, it gives me the option to delete everything to move my itunes store purchases over, but there has to be a way to 1. get my itunes purchases to my ipod, and 2. get my library from my ipod onto my new laptop.
Right?!?!?!?Do what it told you to do - restore.
You will lose anything that you have failed to backup.
Not backing up everything before any update is a mistake. -

how do i get into my ipad if i do not know passcode and i dont want to erase the data i have on it
Hello Mariemonkey82
Follow the steps in the article below to put your iPad into recovery-mode so that iTunes can restore it.
iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
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 forgotten my restrictions passcode and i dont want to lose any media on my iphone, or any apps, i am scared to back up my media for restore in future as these photos and videos mean a great deal to me, is there any way i could get around it? Thankyou if you can help; oh and last time i restored my iphone it didnt restore ALL the media only some and very improtant photos went missing :(
All media and apps on the device should already be in iTunes on the computer.
If you have forgotten the restrictions passcode, the ONLY option is to restore as new.
Then sync back any media, apps, contacts, etc back to the device.
You can not restore from backup as the restrictions passcode is included in the backup. -

You will have to restore. Something happened to your iPod and a restore is required.

If I try to update or restore it, a message pops up saying, "The Ipod software update server could not be contacted. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later." How can I fix this? I really don't care about losing my data, cause I can just re-sync my songs and videos, and all my pictures are saved on a flash-drive. I just need a way to be able to restore my ipod and get rid of that passcode without using the actual ipod, because I can't get in anyways. How can I do this? Also, I'm not sure which IOS I have. All I know is that it's below 5.0.0. I think it might be IOS 4.0.0, I'm not sure.

Make sure you have the Latest Version of iTunes (v11) Installed on your computer
iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download -
Please..I would appreciate your help guys. Thanks!!
In iTunes on your Computer, Download The Skype App normally.
Then on your iPhone, go to the App Store App, Under Updates->Purchased.
Look for Skype there, and tap the Cloud icon to initiate the download. It will tell you its not compatible, but offer a compatible version for download.
Install the latest compatible version of an app on an earlier version of iOS or OS X -
My Iphone 4 is disabled as a result of someone making too many attempts at guessing my passcode. I know my passcode and do NOT want to "restore" my phone. Is there a way for me to use my passcode to unlock it once it has been disabled?
Its frustrating because all of the help assumes you have forgotten your passcode, or that you can get in to your phone to get the ID number.

i had purchased an apps, now i want to cancel that purchase and i dont want itunes to keep on deducting my card..pls help me
Do you mean that it's an auto-renewing subscription ? If you do then there are instructions on this page for managing and stopping them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4098
If you want a refund for what you've already bought then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
