My iPhone says 'IPhone is disabled, Connect to iTunes'. But when i connect, it says I need the password
My phone wouldn't let me put the number 2 in, and that's part of my password, so I couldn't get in to my phone. I kept trying, but then it just said 'iPhone is disabled, connect to iTunes'. So I connected it to iTunes, but a message popped up saying, "we can't connect to this phone because it is locked. Put in your password…" or something like that. But I can't put in my password, because my phone is disabled! Should I just take it to the Apple Store, because I have a lot of contacts I can't lose! Help!
I have the iPhone 6, if that helps
It won't let me do a manual restart either…
Take it to the store before you BRICK the device.
If you use iCloud then all your contacts are backed up by default.
Your only option is to restore it, if you take it to Apple then they'll do just that so you'd be wasting your time when you could do it at home.
To restore it, enter DFU mode using the instructions here -
Once In DFU mode, you'll be blessed to restore without needing the passcode. If you have Find my IPhone enabled then you will need to enter your iCloud password (not your phone passcode)
- 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
- My iphone is disabled and it says connect to itunes? My brother took my iphone and put in the wrong pass code multiple times and now its disabled and says connect to iTunes. Well i did. It did nothing. So then I clicked on my device and I clicked 'restore iPhone' but it says it'll delete data? Will this delete all my pictures and music that ISN't backed up? And what can I do if it does delete it? Are there other ways to un disable my iPhone?
- My iPhone 5 says it's disabled now to incorrect password? My little sister put a password on my iPhone and then she couldn't remember the password and now my iPhone says it is disabled and I can slide for an emergency call. I have a few possible passwords I can try. How to I get to a different screen? I can't seem to restart my iPhone. AND I do NOT want to reset; this is a business phone. The apple site isn't that helpful;
