How to reset an iphone with a password on it?
I found an iPhone at the park with no one by it and it has a pass code on it so how can I reset it without getting on the computer or whatever since I don't know anything about the email being used
You'll have to use a computer, because if you type 10 times a wrong password the phone will erase all the data, but if you connect it to a computer you can reset it without any trouble!
You should try an find the owner before you do anything. If it is an iPhone 3GS or later, hold down the home button until a blue screen (or Siri) turns up then say 'Call [your mobile number]'. Then call the mobile operator of the mobile phone (O2, Orange, T-Mobile, AT&T, Verizon, Sprint) and give them the mobile number so they can contact the owner.
That is the ethical and moral thing to do, please do it.
Otherwise, if you're going to be a selfish poop, Google: 'iPhone DFU Mode' and then plug it into your computer (with iTunes) to reset it.
Search on how to restart an iphone in DFU mode. Then connect with itunes and download Latest firmware. Then install with Itunes by holding shift and clicking the button Restore Iphone. And give the path of downloaded Firmware which would be in ".ipsw" extension.download firmware from

Do the right thing and turn it in before they use "Find My Iphone." Finding it in the park and taking it is stealing if you don't attempt to find the owner. It is just wrong to do that, you know you would be mad if someone did that to you. Don't be a D-bag. Return it or take it to the police. Or maybe put a listing online or in the paper for "Found Iphone!"
WTF!
And no, you can't reset it from the phone.
- Will the MAC address of my iPhone reset if I reset my iPhone to its factory settings over iTunes? I have jailbroken my device and used terminal to change my MAC address so that I could connect to school's Wi-Fi. But when I wanted to change it to its initial number, I typed in a wrong value and it just messed up my Wi-Fi, I can't connect to Wi-Fi anymore. Wonder if resetting to factory settings would help…
- My iPhone is locked and I can't remember the password it only lets me try one password before locking down now it says connect to iTunes? What am I supposed to do? I have connected to iTunes but it says it needs me to answer on my phone and I can't do that
- Is there any way I can use my deceased father's iphone X even though I don't know his password or his e-mail password? My dad passed away recently. He had a fairly new iPhone X. I'd like to use it as my own phone but I don't know the passcode. I watched a video on how to restore the phone but I still can't use it because the phone is connected to an itunes account… And since i don't know his e-mail password, i can't reset it. I went to AT&T (where we were on a family plan) but they said they can't help me. Is his nearly new phone destined to be a paper weight?
- I'm trying to ease all contents and setting from my iPhone 7 and it's asking for a password but I don't have a password Ok so I recently got an iPhone 7 and when I opened it up it was a clean slate nothing on it. However when I tried to restore my old phone's data I restored the wrong phone. I tried to go into setting and ease all contents but it asked for a password that I didn't put into my phone and didn't create. I have no clue what to do.
