I have an I Phone 4, have have completely locked myself out by not remebering my passcode/lock numbers correctly, it has disabled my phone

I need assistance, I have completely disabled my iphone by locking myself out with a passcode that I have entered incorrectly numerous times

If you restore the phone from backup, on the last computer your phone was synced with, this will remove the passcode. If you do not have access to the last computer the phone synced with, you will have to force the phone into recovery mode & restore as a new device.

    Since you will not be using your syncing computer,
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    Hi Myreiac,
    Here's what the Apple Support site says you can do if you do not have access to a computer when your device has been disabled:
    If you are using Find My iPhone, you can use Remote Wipe to restore 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.
    You can access Find My iPhone via the Find My iPhone app on your iPad.
    Good luck!
    Cheers,

        hibob99,
    Thank you so much for reaching out to us. I know there are to many passwords out there now days to keep track of them all. Are you looking to reset the Verizon.net e-mail address? If so, you would need to reach out to Verizon Communication by calling 800-837-4966. Please keep us posted.

  • Does anyone know of an IPhone app to lock myself out of my phone for a certain period of time?

    Does anyone know of an app I can use so that I can lock myself out of my phone for a specified time interval? There are times where my phone becomes a distraction and it would be easier to just lock myself out of it for 45 mins than to go to the trouble of putting it somewhere were I won't notice it and it will be too far away from me to just pick it up and start searching social media sites as procrastination.

    It's called "SelfControl". It can be a little hard to learn to use but it's worth the effort.

  • Help, I have locked myself out of my macbook air and there seems to be no way back on.

    I have literally just got my first mac computer today (a macbook air) having previously been a PC user. Needless to say, I am not familiar with how to use them at all and am pulling my hair out here trying to work out why I have been locked out after just 5 minutes of using it.
    I guess there must have been a setting on it to automatically log me out after a certain amount of time as I left my computer for a while before returning and came back to a login screen. It is now prompting me for a password to get back into my mac - even though I didn't even set one! When I click the ? button, it says i should go to appleid.apple.com to reset it from another device, but I have tried this and all it allows me to do is reset my Appleid - not my computer password. (By the way, have also tried typing in appleid password with no luck.)
    Has anyone got any tips? I have tried running multiple internet searches across the forums and have found nothing even remotely close to helping me. It seems so ridiculous for something so simple - especially as i never even set a password!!!
    Any help much appreciated - I am on the verge of throwing this machine across the room and I've only just got it.

    Did you purchase your MacBook Air new?  Do you still have its box?  Locate its serial number and telephone Apple at the number shown at the bottom of this page (1-800-MY-APPLE if you're in the U.S.).  They can help you.

  • I can't remember my passcode for my iphone4 and it disabled my phone. I also plugged it in to itunes and it says its locked. How do i fix this?

    I can't remember my passcode for my Iphone and it is disabled. How can I fix this? I also plug phone into itunes and it says phone is locked due to wrong passcode.

    Follow the instructions in the procedure above to the letter. Here they are, with emphasis on some easily overlooked requirements:
    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.
    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.
    While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the "low battery" screen, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then start with step 2 again.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears (iTunes icon and USB connector) you can release the Home button.
    If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert ("iTunes has detected a phone in recovery mode").
    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.
    If you still can't get it to work, you have done all you can and only Apple will be able to help.

  • HT1688 I recently updated my phone, I wasn't watching just walked away while it updated and when I came back and it was finished t has a passcode lock on it. I do not know a passcode lock and ever code I would ever use is not working. How do I fix this?

    Passcode locked  out of my iphone and dont know how to fix it. I recentenly updated it and it automactically locked my phone. MR

    Look closely... it's asking you to set a passcode for the phone... You can skip it if you want to, but that's not really very smart.
