I forgot the passcode to my iPhone?

Apparently I have to restore my iPhone to get back on it. However, when I try to back up my files on iTunes it says I need to put in the passcode. Is there a way to get around this?

Go to your phone carrier (ex: verizon, att) this happened to my mom and she had to go there and they fixed it all up for her

Sadly no you should try all sorts of passwords like dob and cell #

Put your iPhone in DFU mode then restore

Yes, what the first answer said. You have to go to your phone store and they will do it for you. You might lose everything on there.

  • What to do if i forgot my iphone 4s passcode? So i forgot my passcode, and i don't know what to do. I read that you could plug your phone into itunes and then reset it, but i really don't want to lose all my photos, text messages, contacts, etc. Is there a way to reset my password without losing all my iphone's data? Please answer quickly! Thank you so much! Btw, please don't suggest to go to the apple store/call verizon because i really don't want to do that, thanks.
