Does it want the passcode to transfer data or does it want the passcode to get into the phone?


If it wants it during a data transfer, if you see an option to reset encrypted data, several people have posted that they did that and lost little to no data.


If it wants the passcode to get into the phone, see the Apple Support article(s) below.
