@norman_bates Not necessarily, my sister forgot her passcode, when she plugged it into her MBA nothing happened, had to put it into Recovery Mode to 'Unlock It', Anyway this is an extract from the website that helped us;
- Disconnect the USB cable from your iPhone, but leave the other side connected to your Mac or PC
- Launch iTunes
- Press and hold down the Home and Sleep/Power button on the top of the iPhone to turn off the iPhone
- Press and continue to hold the Home button while you reconnect the USB cable to your iPhone, this will cause the iPhone to turn on
- Continue to hold the Home button until an alert message in iTunes informing you that an iPhone in recovery mode has been detected
