  • I was told to create a password for my itunes backup, which i did.  Now its telling me my passwords is incorrect.  I dont know what to do because i am locked out of my phone and don't remember its password.

    I forgot the password to unlock my phone.  I read online to go to itunes and create an encrypted password for my backup and then sync my phone and then restore it.  But now, when i try to enter my passcode into itunes to backup, it tells me it is incorrect.  I don't know what to do..  I am locked out of my phone and my itunes backup.  please help me

    The backup encryption passcode has nothing to do with locking a user out of their backup.
    If the encryption passcode has been forgotten, nothing can be done.  There is no reset for the encryption passcode.
    Delete the backup and create a new one.

  • What is the difference between the passcode on my iPhone 5 and a password?  I am locked out of my phone.

    What is the difference between the passcode on my iPhone 5 and a password?  I am locked out of my phone.

    Not entirely sure what you are asking, but a passcode to unlock an iOS device is normally 4 digits long (so is a 4 digit code), though you can make it alphanumeric and longer (so effectively becomes a password).
    If you don't know the passcode to unlock your phone or it's showing the disabled screen then there are instructions on this page for how to reset a device : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212 - you should then be able to restore/resync your content to it.

    You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
    You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.
    Also, see iTunes- Restoring iOS software.

  • How do I restore my phone? I forgot my passcode and Im locked out of my phone and to reset it its telling me I have to turn off my icloud through my settings

    I have locked myself out of my phone. I have all my stuff backed up on my computer so now Im just trying to restore my phone but its telling me I need to trun off my icloud through my settings on my phone, but obvisouly I cant when Im locked out. What do I do?

    You should be able to remove the passcode by restoring the device. Do the following:
    1. Connect the device to the computer to which you normally sync;
    2. Open iTunes (Note: If iTunes prompts you to enter the passcode, try another computer that you have synced with. Otherwise, go to "If you have never synced your device with iTunes" in http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212 )
    3. Right-click the device in the left column of  iTunes and select Back up (read this article on how to restore http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766 )
    4. When the backup is complete, select Restore
    5. When finished, restore from your most recent backup
    To restore read the restore section in this article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    If that doesn’t work you will need to perform a factory restore to remove it.

  • I just updated to 8.3 and now I am locked out of my phone

    After updating to the newest version of iOS, I was asked to enter a 4 digit pass code. I entered the same one I've always used.
    Now when I wnet to grab my phone and look at something, It asks for my pass code, I enter it but it doesn't open the phone.
    I'm up to being locked out for 15 minutes now.
    How on earth do I fix this?
    I'm on a business trip and my phone is synced to a computer at home.

    The backup encryption passcode has nothing to do with locking a user out of their backup.
    If the encryption passcode has been forgotten, nothing can be done.  There is no reset for the encryption passcode.
    Delete the backup and create a new one.
