  • HT1212 dropped iphone.  It turns on, but I cannot see anything on the screen to be able to enter passcode.  I want to sync to extract my photos, contacts etc.  How can I do this without the passcode?

    How can I retrieve stored information on iphone when I am unable to enter passcode to unlock the phone.

    Hook the phone to a computer running iTunes and backup to the computer. Copy pictures off the phone manually to the computer.

    You can't. You will have to place the iPod in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    The screen-lock passcode is a good security feature.

    If your account is disabled then you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
    You might then need to log out of your account on your iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store (Settings > Store on iOS 5 and below) and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it
    If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
    For the auto-renewing subscription, there are instructions on this page for managing and stopping them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4098

    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.

  • My uncle has died and we are trying to access his iPad but don't know his code so the iPad is disabled. Can we unlock it without resetting the device as we don't know if he's backed it up our not and don't want to lose whatever he has on there?

    My uncle passed away recently and we are trying to access his iPad but don't know his code so the iPad is disabled. Can we unlock it without having to reset it as we don't know if he's backed anything up and we don't want to lose whatever is on there... thanks in advance.

    About all you can do is take the device to an Apple Store along with the death certificate and explain the situation...if someone can do something, it would be them.

  • HT201472 If my ipod was stolen, how can I figure out if the find my ipod app is activated

    If my ipod was stolen, how can I figure outg if the find my ipod app is activated.

    - 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. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.
    - Apple will do nothing without a court order

  • My ipod was stolen, how can i track it without having to wait fo rthe serial number to come up

    My ipod was stolen, how can i track it without have to wait for the serial number?

    The serial number will not help you track it at all.
    IF you set up fond my ipod on the ipod itself BEFORE it was stolen AND it is on AND it is connected to wi-fi AND it has not been restored by the thief, tehn you may be able to get an approx street address from icloud/find my ipod.
    Otherwise, there is no way to track it at all.

    If your phone is jailbroken, we can't help you, as already stated.
    If you're new to this and you're trying to download apps to put on your phone and it is NOT jailbroken, you can't do that.
    You must go through the iTunes app store.
