I forgot my passcode how can I bypass it?

Is it possible to bypass the password without restoring my phone?

you cannot bypass
LOST PASSCODE
You should be able to remove the passcode by restoring the device. Do the following:
Connect the device to the computer to which you normally sync;
Open iTunes (Note: If iTunes prompts you to enter the passcode, try another computer that you have synced with. Otherwise, go to "If you have never synced your device with iTunes" in http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212 )
Right-click the device in the left column of  iTunes and select Back up (read this article on how to restore http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766 )
When the backup is complete, select Restore
When finished, restore from your most recent backup
To restore read the restore section in this article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
If that doesn’t work you will need to perform a factory restore to remove it.

    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    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:

    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

  • I forgot my passcode, how can i enter my ipad ????

    i forgot my ipad passcode, so i searched the net looking for a solution but none of them worked even that one which include connecting the ipad to pc itunes and resetting it !!!!!! im really helpless, wt can i do to re-enter my ipad !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! help please

    If you have a passcode to the screen lock that you've forgotten, restore the iPad from the computer to which the iPad is synced. For information and instructions, see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    If that will not work, you'll need to put the iPad into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    If that still doesn't work, as a last resort try DFU mode:

  • Hi I forgot my passcode, how can I access?

    Hi Folks,
    I drew a blank on my passcode, to unlock - Is there a generic code to unlock until I can reset my passcode?

        Hey wunstorf,
    I sm so sorry to hear about you forgetting your passcode on your iPhone. I know that I forget my passwords for various accounts all the time! Now, if you were speaking about the code for simply unlocking your phone, this would have been set up by you in the Settings. There is no default for this code. If you have forgotten this, you may need to plug your device into iTunes and restore the device since it is not able to be accessed.
    If this is for your Apple ID though, you can reset your password for that at www.iforgot.apple.com.
    Please let us know if you've gotten it or any other help that we can provide. Thanks!

    You can't. Until the previous owner removes the activation lock, the device is useless to you; Apple won't remove it unless presented with proof that the registered owner is dead.

  • My nephew doesn't remember the yahoo I'd that he used on his iPad mini. How can I bypass this?

    How can I bypass this to reset the iPad?

    Your statement makes no sense at all. Your nephew's Yahoo ID - whatever that is -  has no bearing on whatever you are trying to do to reset the iPad.
    If the iPad is locked/disabled and you can't remember the passcode, you have to restore it in order to unlock it. There is no way to bypass anything with regard to security features on the device. If you could bypass a security feature, what good would the feature do?
    Maybe this will help. But of this isn't what you are asking about, post back with more information.

    You could follow the instructions in the support document that you linked from. There is a section regarding the passcode and the inability to use it or enter it. However, you may encounter more issues since you cannot use the screen.
