I forgot my pass code on my iPhone 5?

I have really bad luck first my friend stole my iPod then I forgot my pass code on my iPhone 5 it won't let me restore it because find my iPhone is turned on and the only way to turn it off is from my iPhone which I can't get into what should I do I really need my iPhone

Added (1). Btw I have ios7

Added (2). Thank you guys so ******* much the recovery mode thing worked

You should take it to the apple store or you carrier store and let them unlock it for you it will cost i'm not exactly how much though

You can reset the phone entirely but you'll still need your Apple ID and password. It's important not to forget passcodes and passwords.

Well then you're screwed. If you forgot your pass code the only way that you're going to be able to get back into it is if you run recovery mode which wipes your phone totally. I hope you also know yours or his Apple ID password otherwise you're going to have a problem getting back into it as well.

You can try putting it in DFU mode, then restore. You can also erase the iPhone from iCloud.

Some "friend," that steals from you. Hope you press charges… Janine is right.

  • What happens if pass code is entered wrong on iPhone? I need to put a pass code lock on my phone so my son can't get on my phone but when the pass code is entered wrong so many times it brings up the emergency slide. What will happen if he slides it?
  • My iphone is disabled because i forgot the pass code? I know i have to sync it to itunes but every time i try it says it can't because it has a pass code on it. What do i do?
  • IPhone restrictions pass code? I got a new iPhone 5 and I'm going through the settings and came across "Restrictions." It asks me for a pads code but I don't know what it is… Is there a default? If so, what is it? I tries 0000 but it failed and now it says "1 failed attempt" or something like that. I know that I have never set a code for it. What could it be?
  • Iphone 5 how to turn off the disable feature when you get pass code wrong? Sometimes my friends try to get in my phone or I accidentally type in an old password! And the disable feature is super annoying how can I shut it off? I believe I have ios 7 not sure but I have the latest version!
