Iphone display shattered. How to access content in iTunes without 4-digit passcode?

A pickpocket took my iPhone when I tried to photograph him, and slammed it in the asphalt The screen and display is broken and the touch-function won't work. But someone is still in there! However, when I plug the phone to my computer(not a Mac) iTunes recognizes there is a unit there, but says I need to type in the 4-digit passcode on the iPhone to get access to it in iTunes. But the touch-screen is still broken, so I can't type in anything. Any solution? Can I type in the code or apple-password somewhere else? Hope somebody can help me! I really want my contacts and pictures :S

If this is the computer the device normally syncs with, no passcode is needed.
If the device has been used as designed, contacts would be synced with a supported application on the computer or a cloud service and would not be lost simply by the device being lost/stolen, a hardware failure, or damage.
If the device had been used as designed, it would not be primary storage for pictures taken with the device, they would have been copied off regularly by the user to a computer.  You might still be able to copy the pictures off as this does not require syncing or iTunes in any way.

Have you failed to use the device as designed?
Sorry, but if you have failed to use the device as designed, the touch screen is damaged to the point of not being usable, your contacts and most, if not all of your data is gone.

    Where is the movie rental tab on iTunes? I downloaded two films, but do not know how to access them on iTunes.

    There is nothing to download.
    You first must purchase the service in iTunes and let the intial scan, match and upload process complete. Then you can activate it on your iPhone by going to Settings > Music and set the option for "iTunes Match" to ON.

  • How to access tones in itunes

    how to access tones in itunes

    What do you mean 'how to access tones in iTunes' ? If tones are available from iTunes in your country and you want to buy them then you should have a Tones tab at the bottom of the iTunes store app on your phone (you might have to go via the More button at the bottom of the app).
    If you want to copy purchased tones from your phone to your computer's iTunes library so that you can take backup copy (tones are one-time only downloads, to redownload them you will have to rebuy them) then connect the phone to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases

  • How to access the remote Objects Without Db_links?

    Hi ,
    I want to know how to access the remote objects without db_link.That is i want to access a object in some other server which has different database.

    SanjayBala, just so you know that it is possible to create a database link in Oracle to non-Oracle databases in some circumstances. Look up Generic Connectivity aslo know as Heterogenous Services. With 11g Oracle has basically renamed the feature and replaced it with somethinkg named ike DG4ODBC.
    I have not spent time studying the details for DB4ODBC but with HS Oracle provided the interface and you had to obtain the necessary ODBC driver on your own. I had Oracle on AIX reading and writing to SQL Server on Windows but the developers chose to write a java program and connect to both via it. On Windows and Linux platforms the necessary ODBC drivers might be available without the requirement to go out and purchase one.
    The Oracle Open Gateway product is an advanced version of the above features with drivers for specific non-Oracle databases included like DB2 or Informix.

  • My iphone is disabled how do i ufactory nlock it without resseting it?

    my iPhone is disabled how do i factory unlock it without resetting it?

    Do you mean you can't enter the right password to unlock it? If so, you should put your iPhone into recovery mode and restore it from an old iTunes backup file:
    Step 1. Press the Wake/Sleep button on you iPhone for a few second until the red slider appears. Slide the slider to shut down your iPhone
    Step 2. Reconnect your iPhone with your computer via the iPhone USB cable and press and hold the Home button.
    Step 3. Do not let go of the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen on iPhone. iTunes will remind of that it has detected a device in Recovery mode. Click OK and restore your iPhone.

  • How to access contents of textframe

    Hi all
    I've a textframe which contains the group of images pasted using 'paste into' command, any idea how to access the contents using script, i've tried
    var inlineFrame = myDocument.stories.everyItem().textFrames.everyItem().getElements();
    unfortunately this doesnt work for this case as the images or textframes are pasted using pasteInto command.
    any suggestions ?

    Try this:
    #target InDesign
    var _allRectangles = app.activeDocument.rectangles.everyItem().getElements();
    for (i=0; i<_allRectangles.length;i++) {   
         if (_allRectangles[i].groups.length > 0) {       
               var _imgArray = _allRectangles[i].groups[0].rectangles.everyItem().images.everyItem().getElements();
               alert("Rectangle " + i + " contains a group with " + _imgArray.length + " images.");

  • How to access the whole iTunes iCloud Library with an Android phone?

    Hello all,
    I am a newbie here, so please forgive me if I'm not following protocol here.  I searched for the word "Android" in all of the support docs. and got 0 hits!  Is there a corporate policy at work here?
    I know that Google and Apple (and by extension Android and iOS) are competing hard for all of us techie music lovers out there who use both ecosytems.  Well, Google Play wants to have my entire music library, Apple's ever at the ready with iTunes/iCloud/Match, and now I've even gotten solicitations from Amazon which has a "Cloud MP3 Player" with purchases ready to download that I made from Amazon in 2010, before I ever dreamed of getting MP3 files instead of a physical CD.  I mean the liner notes had the lyrics to the songs right?  Well, I enjoy looking at lyrics.  Anyways, . . .
    What are the best recommendations for how to access my iCloud music library with my Android phone? 
    Yes, one solution is to use both Google's and Apple's services and just duplicate everything everywhere.  But, I'd just like to settle on iTunes/iCloud solution, but I have a brand new Android phone that I want to use.  The iPhone 5 screen doesn't come close to my Motorola Droid RAZR Max HD!  :-)  Sorry, all you iPhone folks.  You have all the app's., so I have to latch on to somethine for a reason why I stayed with Android! 
    Thanks,

    Apple is pretty much the only one who does not support other platforms and it will be their downfall in the future. I have bought a few hundred tracks (and one movie) from iTunes before the competition started to catch up. Their Cloud service just came into Finland but I've already moved on to others. I've also bought music from Spotify, Nokia Music and Xbox Music. I've been a subscriber of Nokia Music, Xbox Music and now Google Music. I'm also a Netflix subscriber and I have a local IPTV service that also provides movie rentals from various providers - and guess what, they also work on all platforms.
    The reality is that today was the first time in a long long time that I've actually even bothered to open iTunes. Lack of platform support will destroy iTunes in the long run. Apple is starting to look like Microsoft once did. Today you can even get Office for almost every platform - even mobile devices.
    Limited access and/or features is also one of the biggest reasons that turn people away from legit services. DRM protected music was the reason I had over 20,000 MP3s before it was removed from iTunes. When that happened I deleted all the old files and became a honest, paying customer.
