Hi there pablo nina,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you’ve forgot the passcode for your iPhone and you want to know how to restore it. The article linked below will walk you through the process of restoring your iPhone from recovery mode using iTunes.
Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support

I put a passcode on my iPad 2, then I forgot it. I've tried to restore it in iTunes, but it still has the passcode on it. What do I do?
If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup).
If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present
Connect the iPod to your computer and restore via iTunes. Place the iPod in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore. -
I forgot my password for my iphone 4 and it is now disabled. I am trying to restore it through itunes, but it say I have to put my passcode into my phone first. Is there a way to restore without using my passcode?
The instructions are in that link. Just follow them VERY CAREFULLY. Especially the part about:
Turn off your device and leave it off.
Plug in your device's USB cable to a computer with iTunes. [but DON'T connect it to the iPhone yet]
Hold down the Home button on your device as you connect the USB cable. Keep holding down the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
When you see the iTunes screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 again.
When your device is connected, iTunes will open. You'll see a message saying that iTunes has detected an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in recovery mode.

I'm trying to update my iphone 4 and in order to compelte the restore backup from itunes i need to turn off the 'find my iphone' but i cant get passed the restore backup stage - what should i do?
Hi beckiewinter!
I have some information for you that may help you understand your iPhone's Activation Lock more thoroughly:
iCloud: Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818
So in order to update your iPhone, you may need to turn off Find My iPhone. This can be done through the iCloud settings, and more information on those settings can be found right here:
iCloud - iPhone User Guide

Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

I tried to restore backup from itune to my new iphone 5s but have forgotten the password what should I do?

Which password?
If you mean the passcode to your iPhone, here's the solution:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
If you mean the encryption password to your backup on your computer:
Warning: Make sure it's a password you will remember or write it down for safekeeping. If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and forget your password, you can't restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable.
If you can't remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and chooseset up as a new device when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore. -

Hi,
Recently I got my Iphone unlocked. Earlier I was using it on ATT n/w. After unlock i am using it in India with a service provider here.
The problem that I am getting is, the phone was able to pick up the network and am able to make calls and messages. Data plan is still to be activated so cant confirm on that, but all the apps that were there on my phone got wiped out on its own. Since I wasnt sure as to what happend, so I reinstalled the apps today morning. I saw the apps getting installed and then left to get ready for my office. after nearly 30 mins I saw nothing was getting syncronized so disconnected the phone and left for Office. On reaching office when I checked for my usual Apps, I could see only the apple apps and none other available there. Need to know whats the issue and how to resolve it. Please can someone help me on this?I can not get to iPhone screen, so no way to get to Settings. That is the problem. When I connect phone to iTunes I get screen asking to insert SIN card. On the phone I'm getting Cinfigure screen asking Launguage , Country or Region, Wi-Fi, ( I can connect to my home wi-fi), and last screen "Activating your iPhone". After two minutes of waiting IM getting message: Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server in temporary unavailable. try connecting to iTunes or try later or contat apple.com/support.
Like I mention, I went to Bell as well Rogers store and tried to insert active SIM card with no results.
Yes, my friend unlock the phone to use with Rogers but I don't know where -

my iphone 4s fell and display went blank,and when i restarted it shows a USB on display asking to connect with itunes,instead i went to a phone repair shop where they service iphones too.First they said that they have to install the IOS4 again in it but they could not do so due to an error so later they asked me whether they should install IOS5 i agreed but it only happened after a long struggle yet the phone remains in the same state with the display showing USB asking to connect with itunes..they could not fix it..please help me..:(
What's there to help? You dropped your phone and now it's broken. You'll have to bring your phone into Apple for an out of warranty exchange. If you purchased Apple Care+ is will cost $49.00, if not, it will be $199.00

I have been told by two different AT&T stores to plug my phone into iTunes and it will accept it, and give me instructions to restore my phone. However, each time I plug it in, iTunes says that it can't access my phone because it's locked. What am I supposed to do now?
Looks like your iPhone is disabled because of incorrect passcode. You will have to use recovery mode to restore the phone. Follow this link for details on how to perform restore in recovery mode.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
