How to wipe someone else's iphone on my computer?
Preinfo: I currently have an iphone 3gs
So I was on vacation visiting my aunt and uncle two days ago. And my aunt works at a very high tech work where all there workers have the updated iphones given to them by the company. So all the old (used) iphones just go in a bin at my aunts house. So she has about ten of them just stashed in her closet of 4's and 4S's. So she generously offered me a 4s so we went and looked at them and picked out the one in best condition and she gave it to me. So I just arrived home and have plugged it into the computer but it has a passcode lock on it and apparently someone else's information (background image of two children, reminders) So i have been searching all over the internet for how to just wipe the phone clean so that i can reset it. I have tried holding down the top and the home button to do the whole recovery mode thing but it just says i need to restore the phone first but I can't restore the phone without the passcode! I have no idea what to do! Please help me! AUHGG so frustrating!
Added (1). Thanks Guys! I fixed it! And haha no i'm not a brony: P I'm a girl! But i do like my little pony.
You may have to go to an apple store for that, sorry man
Well maybe you could try incorretly guess the passcode 10 or 11 times or that might erase all the data… But this doesn't work for all of them… What i suggest you do is hook it up to your comp and update it to the newest ios… But then when it trys to sync unplug it. That could factory reset it, because the same thing happened to my ipod touch I was trying to update it to the new ios and i unplugged it and it just totally looked like i just bought it. And also when it says that you need the passcode just unplug it then and it could also wipe it clean. Also your a brony? I'm too: D
- Will Verizon let me use an iphone from someone else? So, I have a blackberry and I have had it for about a year now. I've been wanting an iphone and I plan on maybe buying one from someone on Ebay or something since it's a bit cheaper. Would Verizon let me use an iphone that I bought from someone and not from their store? And would they let me change my plan with it since mine is for a blackberry?
- Is using someone else's computer to charge you're iPhone safe? Hi, if i were to use someone else's computer to charge my iPhone and iTunes pops up automatically does it usually back up my information on that computer? Or do i have to do it manually for it to back up and sync.i'm worried my personal stuff has been backed up on someone else's computer.
- I have Problem with iphone 4s battery using 3G with three mobile, someone else? Has someone got the same problem of me? Since I live in Cardiff and I changed my phone company (I was in Italy before) and I choosed Three mobile, I have really bad battery duration if I use 3G, I can't even use my phone without Wi-Fi 'cause it pass from 30% to 8% in five second of using. I think is Three mobile issue, I just want to see if someone else has the same problem so I can think to change company.
- How to track someone else's iPhone? My ex called me the other day and was able to tell me my exact location from the phone call. He lives in another state and has never had access to my iPhone 4S. I changed all my passwords prior to this because he's done this type of thing before. Every time I change my FB password he finds a way to hack back in. I'd like to know HOW exactly he's doing this.
