Perhaps, almost all users of newfangled iPhones today seek to protect their personal information stored on devices. But very often this leads to its absolute loss. After all, if you forgot the password on the iphone, then after several unsuccessful attempts to remember it, it will simply be blocked. What to do then?
Keep calm
Of course, on the Internet, various craftsmen posted a lot of information on how to independently deal with this problem and again begin to use your favorite "apple". But often following such tips leads to damage to the device and the need for thorough repair. Therefore, if you forgot the password on the iphone, it is better to follow one very effective way. They say that it always works and never fails. In case of loss of a password, it must be synchronized with a personal computer. To do this, enter the iPhone in DFU mode. To do this, we reboot the device (to do this simply, you must simultaneously hold Lock and Home for about 10 seconds).
Restore content
The appearance of the company logo on the screen will mean that all your actions have been completed successfully. Next, release the power button and continue to press the home button. If everything is done correctly, the USB cable will light up on the display and it will require you to connect to iTunes. If you forgot the iphone 4s password, and it already has a connection to iTunes, then a message about the discovery of a new device will appear on the display of the personal computer. Here you need to click the "restore" button. Similarly, synchronization will perform the process of recovering absolutely all data. The user, even if he previously forgot the password on the iphone, will receive the device in the form in which it was previously in DFU mode (but now without a screen password). While pressing the “Home” buttons or, for example, “On / Off” and moving the slider to “Unlock”, the phrase “Enter password” appears on the display. What does this mean? And the fact that the main settings of your mobile device has special password protection. As a rule, this is a fairly simple password, which happens as a combination of 4 digits, in which case the screen displays 4 empty cells. Or maybe a complicated combination of characters - then on the iPhone screen you can see the usual line for entering a number of characters.
Be careful!
Until you enter the correct password, the device will not unlock. Remember also that if you forgot your password on iphone 5, then did all the above manipulations and after that you enter the wrong combination of characters ten times in a row, then all the stored personal information on the "apple" will be deleted. This can happen if this option was checked earlier when setting the password. So what if you forgot your iphone password? It's simple - you need to throw the iPhone to the initial settings. Yes, of course, in this case, you can lose absolutely all the information - applications, letters and notes, photos and videos, downloaded and installed plugins and add-ons from Cydia. But a significant part of the multimedia files and data in the future can be restored using iTunes, unless, of course, you have a backup copy of your mobile device on your computer or in iCloud.
