Did you forget your iPhone passcode? Don't panic! Forgetting or losing your iPhone or iPad's passcode (or alphanumeric password) is a serious situation, but not necessarily a disastrous one. In this tutorial we explain how to bypass and change the passcode: you'll have to restore your device, wiping its contents, but at least you'll be able to use it again.

If you have a bit more confidence - and a legitimate reason to want to access an iPhone for which you haven't got the code - then there is software that can help in more sophisticated ways. We discuss your options here too.

Finally, we cover the basics of removing or resetting the passcode once you've managed to access your iOS device.Bypassing passcodes, generally speaking, is veering towards what we'd call the "black hat" (or legally questionable) side of tech support, but it's common enough for someone to simply forget their passcode. In these instances, you'll need to get around the code to use your own device. Nothing dodgy about that.

If you're reading this page because you stole an iPhone and then discovered it was locked, however, the police have already been notified and are on their way as we speak. Well, perhaps not, but you will find nothing to help you in this article.Restoring an iPad or iPhone and starting again is the best and simplest solution if you haven't got the passcode. It removes your personal information, but if you've got a backup you can restore it and it'll be as good as new, except no longer protected by the passcode.

Trying to restore the device from iTunes requires a passcode, but you can restore it from Recovery Mode without one. This wipes the device completely and installs the latest version of iOS from scratch.

Note that you will need the Apple ID and password that were used to originally set up the device. That's the password for the Apple ID, rather than the passcode for the device - they're two separate things.https://www.ttspy.com/the-ultimate-couples-location-tracker-for-and...
