Restore an i phone too many times
what happens when you restore an iPhone too many times
The iPhone is like a mini computer. It uses flash memory, unlike most computers so HDD failure is not a problem. Since all you do in a restore is wipe the phone and reinstall the software and run a sync, I cannot see where it would be a problem.

My little sister typed my password too many times and disabled my phone. now i am locked out of it. how can i get back in?
You will need to restore your iPhone from the same computer that you most recently synced to.

If you can't do the restore then you will need to try recovery mode.

So everytime I watch a movie or listen to music when I use my earphones. A song keeps playing by itself and Siri activates by itself without me even touching it. So I deactivated Siri. And now it's the voice control that keeps coming on. I don't know if my phone is haunted, or there's something wrong with my earphones/earphone socket/jack (or whatever you call where you put it in the earphones), or is it just because I dropped my phone too many times. And I don't want to reset my phone if that's what I have to do. By the way I have an iPhone 4s
If you are wondering why you are not getting any responses, it is because you have vented a complaint without any details that make any sense or give anyone something to work on.
If you want help, I suggest actually detailing what has happened, with versions of software etc. Anything that would let us assist.
As a start I am guessing that you have not really got the hang of "How it all works". Firstly download the Pages09_UserGuide.pdf from under the Help menu. Read that and view the Video Tutorials in the same place. A good addition would be the iWork 09 Missing manual book and something to help you learn how to use your Mac.
If there are specific tasks you need help with:

Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer. Then hold both Home and Power buttons until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, usually takes less than 20 seconds holding both buttons. Restore Firmware.

how do I re-activate my phone after its been locked due to attempting an incorrect pass code too many times?
Connect the iPod to its syncing computer and restore via iTunes. If iTunes asks for the passcode and yu can't enter the passcode or you do not have the syncing computer, place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore -

I have followed the steps provided by apple to restore an iPod touch. It is disabled due to having the wrong password entered too many times. When I get part way through the restore process on my computer it pops up a box saying that it can't restore until I enter the passcode into the iPod. I have tried this same process over 5 times now and keep gutting the same results. It is my kids iPod and he has only had it since September. Someone please help me before I throw the thing through the window and my kid strangles me!!! Thanks!
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

The article from which you came tells you what you need to do. If that fails, then you'll need to put the iPhone into recovery mode:

I haven't synced with a password, I don't mind losing all the data I just want to be able to use it again !! I'm not sure what IOS it is, not sure it's the most recent, I have a feeling I'm not on IO7.
Thanks for all your help.Force iPad into Recovery Mode. Follow step 1 to 6 very closely.

i have been getting this message " no sim installed " too many times then my phone goes off , its iphone 4S , its really a problem i cant get calls or anything and im not sure how to take the SIM out then insert it again , what to do ??
Use the sim tool that came with your phone or a safety pin and just insert it into the hole at the side of the sim tray and push it in and then pull it out. It is no more difficult than that and then just close it again.
