My iPhone 4 was locked and my son tried to open (3) times with incorrect passcode and now everything is erased on my iPhone. Pictures, apps, emails text msgs. What do I do?

The setting for Erase Data with the Passcode Lock is erase all data after 10 failed passcode attempts.


Regardless, your iPhone's backup is updated as the first step during the iTunes sync process when your iPhone's backup is stored on your computer. If you are storing your iPhone's backup wirelessly with your iCloud account, your iPhone's backup is updated automatically when your iPhone is connected to a power source while connected to an available wi-fi network.


Restore your iPhone with iTunes on the computer used for syncing your iPhone.
