Well my iPhone SE is in “Attempting data recovery” and I forgot the password is there any way I could remove that? Or like try to go back to the lock screen since I disabled it?

Can you help me? Also I keep on putting the correct passcode but it keeps saying failed attempt I think when it’s finished. And yes I did do a recovery mode and updated it on a computer to try to recover it and restart it but it took me to this and I’m very confused.

Hello arianna_06,


We are sorry to hear that you are having trouble removing the passcode from your iPhone.


You mentioned that you tried to update the iPhone, have you tried to restore it using the steps in the article linked: If you forgot the passcode on your iPhone, or your iPhone is disabled


After the restore is finished, it should not longer have a passcode on the iPhone. If it is asking for the passcode, the phone may have timed out. Try the process again if it asks for a passcode.


Have a great day!
