A Complete Guide To Fix the 'iPhone Is Disabled' Error

 The error 'iPhone is disabled' is seen when someone enters the wrong passcode more than the permissible attempts. This guide will help you fix this error. Stop trying more times if you see the 'iPhone is disabled' error because if you try more, the device will take more time to return to the correct state. Your iPhone will work according to the setup for wrong attempts. For example, if the password is used wrongly ten times, the device's data will be erased automatically.



Luckily, you can handle this situation smartly in some ways. Below are the ways to fix this error and to avoid it in the future. 

Use iTunes in Recovery Mode

You can take advantage of iTunes backup to restore the data. iTunes can also be used on Mac and PC as a backup tool. However, Apple recommends iCloud to back up the data, but iTunes is also used by many to backup data like playlists, TV shows, movies, etc. Here is how to use iTunes. 

  • Turn off your iPhone. 
  • Turn on the device in Recovery Mode and connect it (iPhone 8 or newer) with your PC by holding the side button to enable Recovery Mode. On iPhone 7, you have to press and hold the volume down button. On iPhone 6S or older, press and hold the Home button to activate Recovery Mode. 
  • After accessing the Recovery mode, go to iTunes. Now let iTunes find the iPhone and choose your device. 
  • You will see options like Restore or Update. You have to choose Restore. Now iTunes downloads the required program. You get a new setup. Here, you have to go further by typing a new passcode. The software will wipe the stored data on your smartphone. 
  • In case of an iCloud backup, the data must be restored in the setup process. Use the option Restore from iCloud. If you do not find this option, you can go through Settings to wipe the data. Without a copied file of the data on iCloud, this method doesn't work.  

Erase the data remotely

Remotely erasing an iPhone is an excellent way if the device is lost or stolen. Find My comes under iCloud and only works if it is active on your phone before losing the device. Find My works through GPS and the internet to track the device and allow you to access it remotely. 



 

  • Visit the webpage of iCloud to locate the phone and log in using your Apple ID. Now click on All Devices from the upper area of the screen and choose your iPhone. 
  • If you want to lock your phone and create a new passcode, go through Lost Mode/Mark as Lost. After it, no one can access your phone and the data. 
  • If you want to wipe the device, use the option Erase iPhone.  

Consider Touch ID or Face ID 

If you often forget your iPhone's passcode, you should go for Touch ID or Face ID. You can create a Touch ID or Face ID based on the iPhone model you have. You can create a Touch ID for iPhone 5S to iPhone 8. Face ID is available for devices like iPhone X, XS, or XR. By using these methods, your iPhone will unlock only by scanning your face or finger. Still, you have to remember your new passcode because the device will ask it while restarting or updating some specific settings.
