My iphone 6 is disabled because of incorrect passcode but my apple account isn't activated yet so I cannot reset via itunes
My iphone 6 is disabled because of incorrect passcode and i cannot reset via itunes because i have not yet activated my apple account.
+Do a DFU recovery:+
+1. Open iTunes.+
+2. Connect the iPhone+
+3 Press both the home and sleep/wake buttons until the Apple icon appears (ignore the red slider if it shows).+
+4. Continue pressing the home button alone until iTunes sees your phone in recovery mode.+
+5. Follow the prompts to restore the iPhone.+
If not, take it down to mobile dealers that can reset your phone for you. All data will be lost.

My iPhone is disabled because my kids renter the wrong passcode, what can I do?
If the iPhone is showing the red disabled screen then you will need to connect the phone to the computer that you normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the phone and re-sync your content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the phone into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If you do it via a different computer then :
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. -

Disabled iPad, cannot restore via iTunes
Hello there.
My iPad is disabled after too many incorrect passcode attempts. I've tried to restore it via iTunes like as shown on an apple help page but it isn't working. Ipad says connect to iTunes, iTunes says it can't do anything because of the wrong passcode. Have logged into iCloud, gone onto the find my phone thing but device is offline.
Can't seem to work out what to do and feeling frazzled.
Thanks in advance.Hello ChazzaTron
Have you tried putting your iPad into recovery mode and then restoring in iTunes? Check out the articles below to go through resolving the issue. You should still be able to remove Activation Lock from icloud.com in the Find My iPhone section.

Forgotten password on iPhone 5, how can i reset via iTunes and use the phone?
I bought a used iPhone 5 from a friend, and unfortunately i found out there is a passcode when turning it on!!, and the old owner of the phone has forgot it! i tried 3-4 times and it said "wrong password", WHat can I do to be able to launch the phone, or reset it via iTunes?
If it has been disabled after entering the wrong passcode - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212.
Unfortunately, you must restore it in iTunes on your computer. There is no way to retrieve a forgotten pass lock code.
You will need to restore your device from the same computer that you most recently synced to, and restore the device. See - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414. -
Why can't I send i-message and use facetime with my iphone 4s(BTW, there is nothing wrong with my apple account))
It functioned well originally, but a month ago I could not use facetime and send i-message anymore. I think there is nothing wrong with my apple ID because I can still download apps in apple store.Try turning both iMessages and Facetime off in SETTINGS then re-enable iMessages and then Facetime. See if that helps.

I have an apple id but when i want regester with icloud on my iphone I get the message "THE MAXIMUM NUMBER OF FREE ACCOUNTS HAVE BEEN ACTIVATED ON THIS IPHONE."
On the web of icloud when i try to sign in with apple ID i get the Message "THIS APPLE ID IS VALID BUT IS NOT AN ICLOUD ACCOUNT"
Hence i cant create Icloud account.
please let me know how i can resolve the above mentioned issue
Thanks.Apple limits iOS devices to three free iCloud accounts, & once that limit is reached on an iOS device you can no longer create a new account on that device. The solution is to create the account on a computer or another iOS device, then set that account up on your present iOS device.

Forgotten Passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can 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.
Alternatively, place the device in recovery mode and restore it to erase the device:
Disconnect the USB cable from the device, 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 shut down.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device. -
