I forgot my passcode and I dont want to restore it because I have no back up. Help?
Hello,
I recently changed my passcode and i instantly forgot it as i tried to unlock my iphone.
And I honestly dont want to restore it, because I will lose everything, especially my 3,000 photos and I cant risk that.
I havent used my iphone for days, because i rather have it like this than restore it and lose everything. I am waiting for a solution.
So what can I do?
Please, I cant lose everything!
Is there a way to hack it or something like that?
Like hacking my photos and then restore it?
All im asking, is there any possible way i can get my stuff back, most importantly my photos.
Please Help!
I've heard I can get my iphoned unlocked.
P.S I have my phone now on, "connect to itunes"

You've already lost ALL data on your phone. There is nothing to recover. -
when i turn my iphone 4 on, it comes up with a picture of a cord connecting to an itunes icon. when i plug it into my pc, it says the settings on my iphone need to be restored. but i dont want to restore it as will lose everything on it. what shall i do?
You have no chose but to restore your phone. What do you mean "lose everything"? Is your data/iTunes content not on your computer?

I started to update my iphone4 software to iOS 7.0.4 while in the process of updating a text message came in- now it keeps saying checking for update then an error comes up that says try again . How do I finish updating my phone?
Hi
A little information will be of a great help, witch iPhone did you upgrade, memory , and version of software ( iOS 8.x.x )?
Try restarting you iPhone and make sure you have a god internet connection , get as close to your wifi router (1-3 meter / 2-9 feet ) as possible. Don't use restore to factory settings before you tried other options . And most imported du you have an iCloud backup.

After I updated the iOS version on 11/23/13, I can not access anymore my Pages documents. It says it's updating. How long would this take to update?
Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.
If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.

Another thing to try - Turn the iPad Off & then back ON.
If that doesn't work:
• Log out of your iTunes store account. Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
• Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
• After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

On my iPad I have a working icloud that I have complete access to, but on my iPhone it keeps asking me for the password for it, but I do not know it! And the email that I used is not activated anymore! How do I delete the icloud account on my phone?
Hi Aurion23,
If you intend to keep using iCloud on your iPad, your best course of action would be to update your Apple ID/iCloud information so that you have a known password and it is associated with an active email address. You may find the following articles helpful:

http://jaxov.com/2010/05/recboot-iphone-recovery-mode/However, it appears that there is a problem with the iPod and that is phy it went into recovery mode.
- If you can't get it out of recovery you will have to restore the iPod.
- I would tyr another computer to help determine if you have a problem with the iPod causing it not be be scene in iTunes or problem with your computer. -
I bought a new iPhone 5 a few months ago, and havnet plugged it into my itunes until now, and I do not want to set it up as a new phone, because it will get rid of everything I already have on there, but I also dont want to restore from my last backup with my old iPhone 4. I want to add music that i have on my itunes, but i dont want to start over fresh. PLEASE HELP!!!!!
Those are your only choices.
You should simply transfer everything from your iphone to your computer. Then you can sync it back. -
I restored my iPhone and when sync with iTunes is in progress I receive the error message "iTunes could not back up the iPhone because a session could not be started with the iPhone." Any suggestions on what to do?
Hi Judy,
Im using windows 7 and im not a computer wizard, i've tried the method by using the instruction for Win7 but it does not work, same problem still exist.
Could uninstall itunes and reinstall it back on my pc fix my problem, please advise...... Many Thanks!

You will have to restore. Something happened to your iPod and a restore is required.

i am upgrading my 2008 macbook to an ssd drive and want to save my settings. how do i save then? I have my files backed up with time machine ,but dont want to restore all files ,as there might be some junk backed up too. Help will be appretiated
When you restore from a Time Machine back up you can pick and chose what is restored. It is not an all or nothing process. Nor do you have to do the partial restores all at the same time. If days after the first partial restore you find something else you want you can restore just that.
