My iIphone 5s is disabled and i cannot access itunes. PLEASE HELP

.

If it is disabled it is pretty safe to assume that the device was locked with a passcode. If it is disabled for this reason you can restore it in "recovery mode" ( unplug the device> power off> hold the HOME button for about ten to fifteen seconds> while still holding the HOME button plug the device in and continue to hold the home button till you see a message in iTunes that says that it has detected an iPhone in recovery mode> hit OK and then Restore iPhone.)
Note: this WILL wipe the device and if you restore from a backup it could restore the passcode lock. If it does repeat the process above and start as new iPhone when it is ready to set up.
Should be good to go form there!
Hope this helps!!!!

    I wish I could help, but I am in a similar situation.
    I need to deactivate it because we are getting rid of the computer it is on and are buying a new one. When I go to Help there is no Deactivate option. The only options are: "Help", "Hide Coach", "Tip of the Day", "Adobe Website", "Technical Support Website", "Frequently Asked Questions", "Check for Updates", "Register", "Download e-License..."

  • My iPad mini screen keeps turning upside down and I cannot fix it, please help!

    When my iPad mini is in the upright position, the screen turns upside down and I have not touched the rotation switch, it just does this on its own and I cannot get it to go back into the right position. Also, it will not let me view it in the longside "landscape" mode. Can someone please help me fix this and tell me what is going on, why is it doing this? I have only had it for a few months and it is very upsetting to see it doing strange things like this without my prompting. Please help! Thank you so much!

  • As a follow up from my recent question, I turned off the compatibility mode under all and regular, clicked out ok, ok then then went to itunes and played a song as they said to, and then tried to open the store and STILL CANNOT OPEN STORE, please Help!!!

    Turning off the compatibility mode by deselecting the check box under each thing that it wants did nothing for my access to the itunes store, still a white page with "itunes store" in the middle of it.  This is getting rediculous! Someone with computer smarts please help, I am at the end of my rope!

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".

    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.

  • My fire fox page has become MUCH wider and I cannot fix it.Please help! cannot use this browser in this condition

    It starts off looking normal, then as the page sets, it stretches out VERY WIDE...to the point where I cannot scroll, or see the entire page. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, and I have the same problem. Thank you!

    Try the Firefox SafeMode. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
    # You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    # Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

  • I updated to FF 4 and now cannot access Windows Media-help please

    I recently upgraded to FF 4. Since then, I am unable to play music or open email with a Windows Media attachment. When I try, I get the following message: "windows media player encountered a problem" I'm given two choices - "close or help". I tried "help" but the possible solutions did not fix the problem.

    same here anthoneyc, upgraded my iphone 4 and ipad2 to ios5 using my friends laptop, went home, then upgraded my itunes to 10.5, after which i synced my iphone it worked fine, then connected the ipad2, it just froze on stage 2. contacted apple support and told them that i managed to sync my iphone but not the ipad. i was told to :
    1. uninstall itunes using their recommended steps. did that, still have the same problem.
    2. i was told to wait for max of 3 hours, stupidly i did that. still froze at step2.
    3. i was told to try to sync it on a different computer. did that as well, but still having the same problems.
    i then phoned the nearest apple store, told me to restore the ipad using itunes. did that and the whole f thing just froze, now i can't even use the ipad. i was then told to book it in for inspection and hope that they find a fix, or they will have to replace the unit.

  • Cannot Access Itunes

    Okay. I realize that itunes is busy with the Christmas rush. But, I've done everything listed in these forums and still cannot access itunes. People are saying they are getting in, intermittantly, but I've had no luck since Christmas Day when the new Nano crashed my itunes and I had to uninstall itunes and quicktime and reinstall. Since then, the music library is okay but I cannot get into the the itunes to download new program for the nanno (we purchased two of them and have had MAJOR problems and are ready to return them...) Previous to Christmas I was operating a Mini with no problmes. I've removed pop up lockers, flushed DNS settings Changed the windows system32 drivers to "localhost and phobos.apple.com". HELP!

    What do you mean downloading new program for nano? I would just connect your nano ONE AT A TIME and then click the update button. And the iTunes STORE is the only thing that could be labelled at "busy". Other than that, I would just click the update or even restore button once the nano is connected.
    Cheers,
    Kelsey

    You may have to do this several times.
    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom

    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings        
    If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone and use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of 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 after the device has been erased.
    You can also wipe the iOS device by installing the FindMyiPhone app on another iOS device and using that app to wipe the device.
    Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs:

    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    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:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    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.
