You're gonna have to plug it into the computer that you've been syncing it with previously to unlock it, or you can put it into restore mode by plugging it into a different computer with iTunes, and pressing the power and home buttons at the same time for about 5 seconds and holding the home button till iTunes dings at you and says that it's detected an iphone in recovery mode. !! Important note!!! If you're using ios 7.0 or above then you will still have to enter the previous Apple ID associated with the phone to remove the iCloud lock to be able to restore.

Turn your phone off and plug it into your computer holding the home button down. That will put your phone into restore mode.

SOURCE: its keeps saying IPHONE IS DISABLED CONNECT TO ITUNES

Connect you itouch to iTunes.
Press and hold the power and home buttons
Screen goes black, now release the power button. Make sure you don't release the home button until it says "we have detected an iPod Touch in recovery mode."
Once it does this just do a simple restore, by clicking the "Restore" button under the large iPhone picture.

Hope this helps!

I forgot my password, and disabled my ipad mini , and need to get back into it

If you have synced your iPhone with iTunes before you forget your iPhone password, you can reset your iPhone by using iTunes without losing data. Through iTunes, you can restore your iPhone from the last backup and remove the passcode from your locked iPhone while retaining your data. If iTunes asks you to enter the passcode, try another computer. Otherwise, you have to follow the reset iPhone Passcode with Recovery Mode section below. The following steps will show you how to reset iPhone password with iTunes.
Step 1. Connect your iPhone to the computer with via a USB cable that your iPhone has trusted.
Step 2. Launch iTunes. If you've synced your iPhone with iTunes, then no "enter password" is required.
Step 3. iTunes will automatically sync your iPhone and create a backup file. If it doesn't, you should sync your iTunes and create a backup file manually by in the Summary window.
Step 4. In the Summary window, you can see the option "Restore iPhone". Click it and follow prompts to choose the latest iTunes backup to restore your iPhone.

After the restoration process is complete, your passcode will be erased and all your data will be restored from your backup. You will now be able to access your iPhone without any passcode. And you can set your new password on iPhone.

I forgot my apple iphone passcode and it says that my iphone is disabled

Try the Restore procedure from iTunes If you have problems. But first try the recovery procedure.
1.
Disconnect your iPhone cable but leave connected the other USB end to the computer.
2.
Turn off your iPhone holding the Sleep/Wake button. The red slider bar appears. Slide the bar and wait until the iPhone turns off. Or you could hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time until the iPhone turns off.
3.
While pressing and holding the Home button connect the USB cable to your iPhone. It should power on. Hold the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" message. Open iTunes if necessary. You should see the "iTunes detected an iPhone in recovery mode..." alert screen.


Choose " Restore"

I forgot what my oassword and the phone is disable now. Help!

Ok, well My name is Ismail A, and I will be helping you today with your problem.
Hold down the power and home keys down for about 10 seconds each while plugged into itunes. When the screen goes black, release the power button but keep holding the home key until itunes says, detected an itouch in recovery mode.

From there you can restore as normal via iTunes.
