hey i just broke my screen and im expecting a new phone in the mail but i dont want to loose all the stuff i had on my last iphone 5. i tried to back up the phone but itunes wont recognize my phone before i enter the password on my phone. the problem is i cant navigate through my phone because the screen is broken. HELP!!!
iPhone 5
I have a broken and blank screen. Siri is not operable and when I plug into iTunes to sync the prompt on the screen says "To allow access please respond on your iPhone." I have never changed my 4 digit code on my iPhone. What can I do?
i am having the exact same problem but i try using siri and shes all like " siri not avaible" any ideas on what to do?
it did othing for me. I have a broken iphone 6, cannot access the screen at all, and nothing happens when i press & hold the home button. Please help!
I have this exact same question except that I cannot view the screen. So I can only use siri. What should I do?
There are no magic words that can overcome broken hardware. It's too late. You need to back it up before it breaks, not after.
So you're telling me that I will have to live with the idea of losing all my data on my phone and simply get a new one? 😢
If iCloud backups are not turned on, it will be backed up to your computer every time you sync the phone with iTunes.
Unfortunately the only way is to borrow a screen from another functioning iPhone and disconnect its screen and then hook it up with your broken device in order to access your password screen.
I had a similar problem, but was able to unlock the phone and activate icloud backup using the Lightning to USB adapater and a USB keyboard. I posted my expierence here.
Siri won't turn voice over on... any suggestions or ideas? It doesn't understand what I'm saying and just keeps saying cannot voice dial with no service.
Cheers
What in the world does that have to do with the topic of this thread?
If voice over isn't on you can't navigate through the phone to allow the computer to access your phone...
Hi, what were the steps to get your iPhone to sync after purchasing the keypad?
Thanks
Too smart, by half. 100,000 digit combinations and 10 chances...I am comfortable with this level of security.

Does this work when your phone screen is completely black, but home button seems to work? (computer /iTunes recognizes phone but is requiring input).
