My iPhone 4 is disabled after the update and I don't know the passcode

I left my phone updating through the night.  Checked on it at 4.30am and went through the bits and set up a passcode.  It seems now that the passcode isn't working and my phone has been disabled.
I've tried to restore and backup but nothing is working.
I'm lost as to what to do next.

  • Hi, I just put a new internal hard disk to my MacBook after formattimg it and I don't know how to install the OS X? Any help please

    Hi, I just put a new internal hard disk to my MacBook after formattimg it and I don't know how to install the OS X? Any help please

    Be sure you have prepared the new drive correctly:
    Drive Preparation
    1.  Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button.  When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID (for Intel Macs) or APM (for PPC Macs) then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    Steps 4-6 are optional but should be used on a drive that has never been formatted before, if the format type is not Mac OS Extended, if the partition scheme has been changed, or if a different operating system (not OS X) has been installed on the drive.
    When formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Complete the OS X installation.

  • Just updated my iPad to the iso7 update and I don't know how to open my games in my Game Center.  If I tap on the icon it won't open the game.  Any suggestions?

    When I try to open a game in my Game Center, they won't open.  I just updated my iPad to the newest version of iOS and won't open my games anymore.  Any suggestions

    You don't open games from within Game Center. It's meant for giving you your game stats, achievements, progress, etc. You run the game from it's icon. If the game is Game Center capable/enabled, the game itself will prompt you to login where it will keep track of your progress and achievements.
    Also, make sure you are signed in to Game Center with your credentials...If the game itself doesn't prompt or bring up Game Center, just tap on Game Center's icon or do it from Settings>Game Center.

    MMy I Pad and IPhone both are shoeing3,367 emails in red .How do I remove these numbers.?

    You would have to put the pics on your computer.  Certainly your old phone is capable of getting the pics to your computer.
    From there you can sync them to iphone.

  • Why doesn't my number show up in iTunes or on my iPhone 5S (everything is up to date and I don't know why this is happening)?

    I've had to change SIM cards with my provider to have working 3G/4G. It works but the odd thing is when I plug my iPhone and I'm on iTunes. I don't see my number showing up. I see n/a each time. I know I have a number but it's not showing up I can make calls and text but it doesn't show my number. In my contacts section I don't see my number either. Why is this?

    You have a hardware issue.  Try a different USB port.  If that doesn't work, try a different docking/charging cable.  If that fails, check the USB properties in Device manager.  The ports MUST be USB 2.0.
    Also, try using a different computer....

  • HT4623 My iPod doesn't have, software update in the general settings and I don't know how to get iOS 5. I'm so confused! How do I do it then?!?!

    My iPod will not update! In the settings it doesn't have software update and I don't know last time it was updated! I need help because I want this to be updated! Somebody please help!

    To update
    The Settings>General>Software Update comes with iOS 5 and later.
    Connect the iPod to your computer and update via iTunes as far as your iPod model allows

    A 1G iPod can go to iOS 2.2 via iTunes and iOS 3.1.3 via
    Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)
    https://buy.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZFinance.woa/wa/touchLegacyLandingPage
    A 2G to 4.2.1. Requires iTunes version 10.X. If a Mac it requires OSX 10.5.8 or later. With OSX 10.4.11 you can only go to iTunes 9.X which gets you as high as iOS 4.1
    A 3G to 5.1.1  Requires iTunes version 10.5 or later
    A 4G to 6  Requires iTunes version 10.7 or later. For a Mac, that requires a Mac with OSX 10.6.8 or later

    iPhone 5c voice dial cannot be disabled after software update. Is there any way around this?

    Hi! It seems you found a bug on iOS 7.1
    To disable Voice dials try this, (I saw in an iPhone website here in Brazil):
    1. Turn on Siri (settings > General > Siri)
    2. go to  (Settings >Passcode > Voice Dial) trust me, it appears now
    3. disable Voice Dial
    4. go back and disable Siri
    hope this could help you!!

    You can backup to a Mac or PC via iTunes. Just make sure your iTunes Preferences/Devices is checked so it will NOT AUTOMATICALLY backup/sync when a device is connected. Click on your iPhone and Back it up. This will preserve your iPhones "current" content and settings.
    I hope a larger display is in the works.
