If you set the phone to erase on 10 failed passcodes - then just keep typing and it will wipe itself. 
Otherwise I believe you can set it to recovery mode and restore etc.. via iTunes...  There is no easy way as the passcode is designed to protect the phone exactly against what you are trying to do now...

    i just got this phone and im so lost im having problems puttig my pics and music on the phone from my memory card from my previous phone

    Import the music and photos from the memory card with your computer and place the music in your iTunes library.
    Place the photos in a folder to be designated for transfer to your iPhone.
    Select Sync Music under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes to transfer this music and any other music in your iTunes library and select Sync Photos under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes selecting the folder where these photos are located followed by a sync.

  • My home button just stopped working, the white mark isn't red so it isn't water damaged. could i replace the phone for free? i just got this phone a week ago

    No water damage will show up to Apple you have voided any warranty you may have

  • So, I just got this phone on Christmas

    So, I just got this phone on Christmas and my little sister just drop and broke the screen and I just want to know if there is any kind of warranty or anything I can get to fix it or if I need to go out and buy a new phone or pay over $200 to replace the glass (the actual background and everything is ok, there is just a large crack in glass that is making the touch screen unresponsive). 

    Do you have insurance?  There's a deductible but it may be less than getting the screen fixed.
    What kind of phone is it?  The Droid Turbo has a one-time free replacement for a broken screen.

  • At 8:00 am every morning there is a loud page-turning noise from my iPhone.  I have no idea what it is and have tried everything to stop it.  Any help out there?

    Every morning at 8:00 am there is a loud page-turning sound from my iPhone 5s.  I have no idea what is causing it and it can be quite startling earlhy in the morning if you are alone.  Any one have any idea what it could be?

    If it goes off at 8am every morning, then you have probably set the alarm without realising it.
    Check the alarm and turn it off.

  • HT5625 Upgraded iphone 4 to 5s.  Want to use 4 as ipod. DO NOT KNOW APPLE ID FOR 4.  When I try to find Apple ID, it finds the id on my ipad and my 5s.  I have no idea what the old id is?  What are my options?

    Help

    It isn't the same.  I can use all the options on the apple site and it finds my new id.
    New ID?
    Is there some reason you created a new AppleID?
    Why don't you simply continue to use the same AppleID you had?
    The 4 ID IS something I made up in the store the day I bought the phone.  I have no idea what the id is.
    You had an iPhone for 2 years and you never got anything from iTunes or never enabled any features of the iPhone?

  • My iphone 4 shuts off and won't come back on and sometimes when i send a text the other person gets a blank message. Just got this phone and really don't want to put up with a bunch of problems

    I just got the i phone 4 on Friday and it has shut off and not come back on twice. I was able to get it to come on by holding the top button down for a few seconds but i don't want to have to do that. Also, i am having a problem with texting, i will send a text and the person on the other end says that I have sent a blank text. Just need to know if this is something that is going to continue because if so then I will take it back and get a Droid

    Assuming the phone isn't jailbroken, the basic steps (as needed) are:
    Restart phone (you already did this)
    Reset phone
    Restore phone in iTunes using a backup
    Restore in iTunes as new, without using a backup
    See appendix B of the User Guide for details
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPhone_iOS4_User_Guide.pdf
    If your phone is jailbroken, this is the most frequent cause of the problems you described.  Restoring could permanently brick the phone.
    Note that your iOS is old and the current version is 4.2.8.  It's odd that it wasn't updated when your activated your phone in iTunes, being that you got it last Friday.

  • Laptop says 'This version of iTunes has not been correctly localised for this language. Please run the English Version'. Can anyone help please, have no idea what to do and haven't used laptop in over a year. iPad/iPhone have lost tunes from laptop too.

    my laptop will not open iTunes, as it just says 'This version of iTunes has not been correctly localised for this language. Please run the English version'. I have not synconised my iPhone 5S or iPad 2 with iTunes for well over a year. I noticed the music which had previously been put into iTunes has dissappeared from my phone and iPad. I also want to remove some movies from my iPad and iPhone and there is no way I can do this without being able to manually sync with the Laptop which is running windows 7. Has anyone else come across this and please can you help? I am no expert in fact I know very little about the Laptop, it is my Husbands baby but he doesn't understand anything to do with Apple including iTunes. I will need any advise explained step by step please.

    Hi Shelady,
    Try downloading and reinstalling the latest version of iTunes from the first link below. If that doesn't do it, the suggestions in the second article should resolve the installation issue.

  • Major Problem Here! I have no idea what to do and need help with OSX

    Hello all, thanks for viewing my topic.
    First of all, I have OSX 10.2.8
    I just got a christmas gift - an Ipod Nano
    I went into my Itunes only to find out that I need Itunes 7.0, but when I went to download it from the site, after running the install, it said I needed OSX 10.3.4
    So, I looked over and over for 10.3.4 only finding I needed 10.3 to run that
    So basically, i'm stuck here. Can I not use my Christmas gift? What do I have to do to get either the newest version of OSX to work with Itunes, or get my new Ipod 4G nano to work with my Itunes. Either solution would be great.
    Thanks

    Some additional information.
    Mac OS X Versions 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, and 10.4, are complete system upgrades that must be purchased.
    The point upgrades, such as 10.1.x to 10.1.5 (Final) 10.2.x to 10.2.8 (Final), 10.3.x to 10.3.9 (Final), and 10.4.x to 10.4.8 (Pending), can be downloaded for free.
    Tiger is available for purchase at The Apple Store (U.S.).
    Panther, is no longer available directly from the Apple Online Store, as Tiger 10.4.x is the most up to date OS.
    If you know what to look for, a Full Retail Version, of the Panther Install CDs, or a Full Retail Version, of the Tiger Install DVD, can also be purchased rather inexpensively, at some online Apple retailers, Amazon, eBay, AppleRescue, FastMac, etc.
    Be sure not to purchase grey, upgrade or machine specific CDs or DVDs.
    Panther is only on CDs, not DVDs.

  • TS4009 It says I have no storage and I have never backed up on I cloud! I just got this phone a year ago!

    Help with iCloud as I just tried and it says I have no storage ???? Never used it and have little to store

    Welcome to the Apple Community Shannon.
    You can see what your iCloud storage is used for and delete any unwanted content at settings > iCloud > Backup & Storage > Manage...... on your iOS device. Or System Preferences > iCloud > Manage...... on a Mac.

  • When i try to go out of a text conversation and go to all of my texts it glitches and goes to the home screen. I've tried everything, and I just got this phone yesterday please help.

    I was thinking maybe iOS 7 on wednesday would fix it but I'm not sure?

    Have you restarted your device?
    Have you reset your device?
    Have you done ANY troubleshooting on your own yet?
    Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails (or you haven't tried a dang thing yet)
    Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.
    Relaunch the App and try again.
    Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
    Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

  • How do i save a copy of my emails on the server on a macook pro? I am having a problem when using hotmail on my new macbook, they say it is set pop3? i have not idea what this means!

    I am not very good on computers and need help, I have lost past history emails when i have used hotmail on my new macbook, they say it is not set right but i do not understand! they say I need to ensure the box 'save a copy to the server' is ticked but they can not help me locate this and I have no idea what to do, can anyone talk me through this please?

    Check your mail preferences. The example below is from the mail app that comes with mac. In my case I'm using yahoo mail which is a POP3 account. POP stands for post office protocol which is the set of rules used by a POP mail account to transfer mail. You can learn more about it here if interested. If the box below is checked, all the mail will be downloaded to your computer when you check your mail using the built in mail app and removed from the mail server. Here is another page to help you set up your hotmail account for use the the mac mail application. Hope this clears things up.
