Mar 24, 2014 7:09 AM in response to Clyde77by AppleFriend47,Thanks Clyde,
Your instructions worked for my son's iPhone 4s that was disabled because he forgot his pass code. I had a heck of a time trying to solve this problem. Many thanks!!!!!

Mar 25, 2014 2:47 AM in response to blondebabe69by adelec,★HelpfulI am having exactly the same problem with my iPad. I haven't forgotten my keycode, my bluetooth keyboard was on in my bag and must have appeared to be entering incorrect codes. Have plugged into my iMac, which I have synced the ipad on previously, but I too am being directed to respond on my device - which is simply telling me that it is disabled and providing me with no opportunity to interact with it. I do not want to lose any data. I am a bit cross about how much time this wastes. In addition to the time wasted wading through instructions that do not work, I will probably have to take my iPad to a service agency to have them address this trivial technical glitch - at a huge cost in both time and money. Not user-friendly at all.

Mar 25, 2014 6:11 AM in response to adelecby Lawrence Finch,The ONLY way to resolve this is to Restore the phone from Recovery mode using iTunes, as Clyde has already posted. If you follow those instructions you will not need to enter the passcode on your phone. Assuming you back up regularly to your computer or iCloud you can restore the most recent backup.
And, BTW, it is very user-friendly protecting your data. If there was any way around the passcode lock the security of the phone would be worthless, as hackers would figure it out pretty quickly. The fact that no one has in 7 years shows how well your content is protected.

Mar 25, 2014 2:04 PM in response to blondebabe69by dwmusic,I had the same thing, but I just waited until the software finished on the phone and it asked me to Trust This Computer and after that it went away.
Another piece of software that Apple didn't test before unleashing it on us. The sequence was in the wrong order. It should tell you to wait for the iPHone to reboot.

Mar 25, 2014 7:47 PM in response to dwmusicby Lawrence Finch,Apple tested the release on tens of thousands of phones for 3 months before releasing it. The process is called "beta testing" - it is released to all developers, and additional regular users chosen at random. If there was a systemic problem it would have been found during the beta test. So this was most likely a glitch on your phone or your computer. Or you just didn't have the patience to wait for it to finish.

Mar 25, 2014 9:30 PM in response to Lawrence Finchby dwmusic,That was the problem. You had to pretend the message wasn't there until the phone had rebooted, and popped the question about trusting the computer. The message on the computer gave no indication that the question it said to answer wouldn't appear unless the phone had fully booted. The way to present that should be for the desktop to wait until the phone is ready to pop the question before telling the user to answer it.

Mar 27, 2014 4:09 PM in response to Lawrence Finchby adelec,Hacker hostile is not the same as user friendly. I want a low level of security - no passcode = no access - I don't want my ipad disabled. I don't want to be hassled with frequent backing up and tedious restoring. That's not user friendly.
