Hello
Hi Hart,
Thanks for your response. Can you please verify if you are referring to the passcode to unlock your iPhone?
My cell phone is now locked. I tried the code number sent but it would not work. Now my cell phone is locked completely.
Can you please provide what exactly do you see on your iphone screen?
It is asking me to enter passcode. requires your passcode after restarting
Thanks for your response. The passcode is the 4 or 6 digit code that you setup on your iPhone. You cant remember the code?
6
You cant recall the 6 digit code that you are using on your phone?
Correct. I’m not positive the original number. The 6 didget number is the one Apple sent me that I tried.
It is the one that you create not the one that was sent to you by Apple. You are the one who created the passcode.
There's no way we can reset the passcode. If you cant remember it or the iphone wont accept your passcode the only way to remove it is to restore your iPhone to factory state using iTunes on a computer. Restoring your iPhone will wipeout everything in it.
If you have an iCloud or iTunes backup we can restore it after we fix the iPhone. Do you have a computer that we can use to restore your iPhone?
This is how I got locked out. I was trying to update my iCloud it was asking for my Apple code. It locked my phone when I tried the number.
We will restore the iPhone to factory state. Do you have a computer that we can use to restore your iPhone?
I’m using my friend cell phone. I do not own a computer.
Thanks for the information. Restoring it using a computer is the only way to remove the passcode. If that's the case you will need to bring it to a nearest Apple Service Center in your area.
If you can provide me with your zipcode I can check and provide you the location of the service center.
17094
My friend has a laptop but she doesn’t have it with her.
We can use it when you have it with you. I will also provide you the location of the service center just in case you want to bring it there. Give me a minute or 2. Thanks
By the way may I know the carrier of your phone? Is it Verizon, AT&T, T-mobile, etc.?
If I take it to a store. Will I need to pay more money?
ATT

Ok but will they charge me
If the iPhone is still in warranty the repair will be covered. If incase the service center are far from your area we can use the laptop of your friend. Just let me know when it will be available so I can call you to help you fix it.
Ok I do not have internet access at my place. Can she do it fir me or will I need to be with her. Her schedule n mine are complicated.
No need to be with her. We just need to restore it and once it is restored she or you can set it up like when it is brand new. Just take note of the passcode that you will be setting up so that this issue wont happen again.
By the way we need the charging cable of the phone because we will connect it to her computer.
May I know what is the best time to call her?
Ok my next question is when my friend can take my phone to her place it will be tomorrow. Will you charge me to connect to her computer since I paid now? My cell is not under warranty.
It is covered by the payment that you made today. No additional charge.
Ok. Will tomorrow at 10 am work?
Yes. It will work. Can you please provide me with a good callback number to call her?
717.994.1230
Thanks. Will call her tomorrow 10AM EST. Who will I be looking for?
Rayona Eaton
