Hi no that will not work because when you click the back up or restore button it tells you that find my iphone must have the password so I am back to square one and you have the same message over again even the apple tech said there is nothing I can do without the password apart from finding my receipt but I have not got a clue where that is so that is the story so far

If you synced and backed up the iPhone with your computer, connect it via USB and bring up iTunes. You then will restore the phone but lose anything aadded after the last backup. From The Believer. . . What if it were true?

If so, I would sign into the find my iPhone app and wipe the thing completely, start over. You better hope that so called friend didn't attempt to use the serial number from your phone somewhere else. > > Nobody, I do mean nobody gets access to my electronics without me present. > > Pam Francis > > > On Aug 28, 2014, at 10:00 AM, Eugenia Firth <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi there > > You won't like this answer, and I hope somebody has got a better one. > > > > Do you have a lot of important stuff on there? If not, you could try putting in a pass code too many times, which will result in erasing the phone and you can start over, and hopefully you have your stuff on the Cloud. The best of course if you could get that so-called friend to tell you what the number is. I suspect you can't, or you wouldn't be writing us. > > > > Gigi > > > > On Aug 28, 2014, at 9:24 AM, wayne17a <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > > > Hi list please could somebody help me out I lent my unlocked iphone 5 > to a so called friend and after a lot of trouble managed to get it > back only to find they have put a passcode on the phone so how can I > get rid of the password so I can restore it thanks in advance > > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
