iPhone disabled

My iPhone has been disabled because my son tried unlocking and I have serious data I can not afford to loose on the iPhone. Is there any possible way I can restore the phone without loosing my data ?

Only if you have been making period backups of this iPhone to either iCloud or a computer running either iTunes or Finder. Otherwise, no. The only method to regain access would be to restore the phone which will erase everything on it.

Hold it Right There!

Enter the passcode incorrectly too many times, and you'd likely be locked out for good. So, hold it right there, and refer to this link: If you Forgot the Passcode on your iPhone, or your iPhone is Disabled - Apple Support. It would be the one you've always entered. If you do not know it, then look for it in a location you may have stored it in.


No Success?

Contact Apple support:

If you cannot get the above link to work, then contact Apple Support.

Why the Wait:

Phone calls are taking a bit to go through at the moment, due to lots of calls. With the Coronavirus Pandemic, many are at home at the moment, with much time on their hands to contact Apple. So, just stay on the line, and you will get through :)
