Do you mean "Passcode"? If so, refer to the following...


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. If you a certain time allotted, then you'll just have to wait it out.

I you have forgotten your passcode.....with no hope of remembering it because it was never written down.....then you must reset the passcode.


To do that, you must erase the phone and then set it up again. There are no other options.


Unfortunately, with no backup, you have nothing to restore so you will have to start all over again from scratch.


Here are the instructions: If you forgot your iPhone passcode or your iPhone is disabled - Apple Support


If you are not comfortable with this.....or don't have a computer handy......make an appointment at the Apple Store or take the phone to an authorized Apple service shop so they can handle this for you. You can find a list of authorized shops in your area using this link:


Genius Bar Reservation and Apple Support Options - Apple


Hopefully, you will set up the phone to back up automatically so that you will always have a copy of your data.
