Almost every owner of an Apple gadget has forgotten the lock screen password at least once. This password reliably protects the iPhone, but if the user forgets it, a system lock occurs when the gadget writes on the screen that the device is disabled and needs to be connected to iTunes. What to do in such a situation and how to unlock your iPhone? All answers are in the instructions below.
Forgetting the lock screen password, the user begins to remember the combination of numbers that it consists of, and tries to write different options. But if at least one digit is incorrect, the code written by the system will not be accepted. All attempts are limited to six, and after that the display shows the inscription: "iPhone is disabled, repeat after 1 minute."
If the password was entered incorrectly not six, but nine times, the display will show: "Please repeat the iPhone is disconnected after 60 minutes." The examples of blocking a smartphone from Apple described above are typical for gadgets flashed with iOS version 7. On iPhone models with other iOS versions the time given to the user to remember the password may increase.
But sometimes operating system does not give time at all to remember the password, but immediately displays the following message:
"IPhone is disconnected and connect to iTunes."
If you are faced with such a nuisance on the iPhone 4, 5, 5s or any other version of the device, do not panic - this difficulty is completely solvable. The following are 2 options for getting out of a difficult situation, when the user has forgotten the password, and the system says "connect to aytyuns". 
Resetting your password using iTunes
The aytyuns utility will help the owner of the iPhone to reset the password. To do this, you need the program to recognize the gadget connected to a PC or laptop. But if the user connects the device to third-party computer, most likely, the device does not recognize the aytyuns and ask for a special notification to respond from the iPhone. But how to do this if the gadget is locked and turned off? Therefore, you only need to connect your smartphone to the computer to which you connected the gadget earlier.
So, when the aytyuns utility recognizes your device, follow these steps to unlock your iPhone:
1. Run the program on your PC / laptop.
2. Connect the iPhone to the computer using a USB cable. Quite often, already at this step, the password is automatically reset to zero. If this does not happen, follow the other steps of the recovery. 
3. Click the right mouse button in the ITunes panel and select the synchronization mode.
4. After the synchronization process starts, you need to turn it off immediately by clicking on the cross. Often, after pressing, an arrow also pops up, which must also be pressed. The process will stop.
The counter will then be reset, and the display will again show the possibility of entering a password that you forgot or accidentally lost. Now you don't have to wait an hour or more. The reset procedure can be done any number of times, if the device displays the requirement "iPhone is disconnected, connect to iTunes" on the display.
IPhone is disconnected connect to iTunes what to do: method two
In a situation where the user's device has not yet completely turned off, resetting the password can help. This method is good for everyone, but it has one drawback: if the owner of the device was not in the habit of making a backup, all information stored in the device's memory will be irrevocably deleted. If you have a backup copy, there is nothing to worry about, and you can safely start resetting your password.
1 This method of unlocking the screen of an "apple" gadget may be required in 2 situations:
To enter DFU mode, you need:
1.Connect iPhone to PC or laptop.
2.Turn off the iPhone.
3. Press the "Home" button and do not release until the device enters DFU mode.
There will be no special message that the iPhone is in this mode. Most likely, it is identified by the system as a recovery mode. But this is exactly what the user needs.
After confirming the system restore, a complete reset of all device settings will occur, the memory will return to the factory settings and the password will be changed. After that, you can restore information from the backup.
Many owners of apple devices face certain difficulties in the process of using, despite the fact that they are made for the most comfortable use. One of the most common problems is the appearance of the notification "iPhone is disconnected, connect to iTunes", how to unlock the device and why does this message appear? In this we will try to figure it out.
For starters, it should be said that this warning is related to the quality of smartphone protection, by the way, it is organized efficiently on the iPhone. The thing is that it is possible to set a password on a device that can protect important information from potential confidentiality breaches. This system functions highly efficiently, but sometimes it is inconvenient to use it, including for the user himself.
Its principle of operation is that after unsuccessful attempts to enter the cipher (erroneous), the smartphone is blocked and all information is deleted. They can only be reanimated through a backup version stored in iTunes, which is why such a notification appears.
The user has 6 password attempts. This is usually enough to focus and remember the combination. If not, then a notification pops up on the screen that the iPhone is disabled, you need to connect to iTunes, and you need to look for methods to unblock it.
How to unlock an iPhone if it is disabled and requires connecting to iTunes
The device itself recommends connecting to iTunes, but in fact, you can unlock it in other ways if the iPhone is disabled. But at the same time, system recovery with the recommended option is the simplest and most convenient. Although it's up to you how to make it easier and faster.
We use iTunes
It should be noted right away that in reality this procedure is not unlocking a certain device, with gaining access to the information stored on it. This process consists of two stages related to each other:
- reset iPhone to factory settings, with the deletion of all data stored on it;
- restoring information and settings of the device again, from the backup version stored in iTunes.
You must be prepared for the fact that not all parameters will be restored in the same form in which they were originally, you may even have to make settings in manual mode... So, be careful about entering your password. But usually all the information available on the device is fully reanimated.
If you think in advance about what is in emergency situation you will return functioning in this way, do not forget to regularly create backups and save them to iCloud.
How to unlock: step by step instructions
If a message appears that the iPhone is disabled and you want to unlock through iTunes, the algorithm will be as follows:

- activate iTunes on your computer;
- enter the password for the service, if necessary;

The smartphone simply stops responding to any commands. Fixing such a problem is easier than it seems at first glance.
How do I get my iPhone back to work?
If a similar problem occurs, then first you can try restarting Recovery Mode. If a cord and an iTunes icon appear on the smartphone screen, then this indicates that recovery mode is running on the iPhone, but due to a software error that has occurred, the process cannot be completed. To do this, hold down the "Home" and "Power" buttons and hold them for 15 seconds. After that, the phone will restart and the error will disappear.
The second solution to the problem is to rollback to the backup. To do this, you need to connect your iPhone to iTunes. About, how to connect to an iPhone through iTunes, you can watch the tutorial video. Otherwise, we recommend using a simple instruction:
- Launch iTunes;
- We connect the iPhone to the computer;

To roll back to the backup, after connecting the iPhone, go to the main iTunes window and find the "" field. We press this button and wait until the operation is completed. This may take about 15-20 minutes.
The army of smartphone fans is increasing day by day, the more devices are used every day, the more problems arise with them. In today's article, we will analyze the situation when an iPhone (of any model) asks to connect to itunes and does not turn on.
The problem is frequent and well known to servicemen, not fixing it takes about half an hour of work and 1500-2000 rubles of money. What not to waste family budget, we will try to turn on the iPhone on our own, at home.
Causes
There are many reasons, it is difficult to organize them, but several popular ones can be distinguished:
- The firmware flies - it is because of this that the iPhone 5, 6, 7 models does not turn on, the aytyuns and the lace are on. We will consider how to reflash the device in the next section.
- A hardware error, as a result of which some system files were deleted or corrupted, again, a flashing will help. Masters call it "iPhone hung on a string."
- The error can occur after falling onto a hard surface
- Water ingress into the device.
What to do if the iPhone seems to be loading, but does not turn on, issues a "string" and asks to connect to itunes? Consider the options for solving the problem below.

- Downloading from the official site Apple program called iTunes (link).
- We install aytyuns and download the firmware itself for your iPhone model.
- We turn off the iPhone and connect it to the computer using a standard cable from the kit (you can replace it with a good copy).
- For 5 seconds, hold down the "HOME" and "POWER" buttons together, wait about 10 seconds.
- After 10 seconds, release "POWER" (aka blocking), but leave "HOME" pressed!

In this case, you should immediately contact the authorized service centres, they will help there, but they will ask for good money for the work.
Possible difficulties
If errors occurred during the flashing process, for example, a warning with error number 9 appears, then the situation is much worse.
