broken screen... cant type the password

What would be so difficult for apple to put out a product that can be logged into via the PC. We know our passcodes and the computer is obviously recognizing that the phones. Why cant a "phone passcode" prompt pop up on the screen. This would make it so much more user friendly and apple is supposed to be user friendly. Regardless the phone is broken and apple will make money when you buy a new one. Its also a shame that Genius Bar cant recover data at the apple retail stores. I went to one about a similar issue and the tech said 40% of the people only care to get the data off the phone since their previous week or two since their last backup. Silly if you have to backup nightly.

Dont think we csn

I think you're stuck between a rock and a hard place, pal. If you can't unlock your phone's passcode for any reason (screen doesn't work, or you've forgotten it), then you can backup your device. That's kind of the point of a passcode lock.

Hi

Since ios 7 when you charge iPhone before it was broken it should have backed up

To iCloud .

When you get iphone repaired by Apple Store or replaced

Just use same Apple ID you make get your Apps /Data back.

Make an Appointment at Apple Store .
