Erase the data on the iPhone

I activated "Erase data after 10 failed attempts" on my iPhone but I want to limit the number of attempts for just 4 or 5.  How can I do?

It is not an option to do so. You should consider your objective by increasing the complexity of your access code (i.e. change 4 digit to 6-digit or a numeric or alphanumeric code custom). See use a password with your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch - Apple Support

You can also suggest to Apple that they saw the addition of an option to change the number of attempts: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

  • Erase the iPhone 6, iOS 10 to negotiate?

    I was in a hurry and do not pay attention to all the steps when I was preparing my phone to trade. I disabled the parameter "Find my iPhone" and then "erased all content and settings", then packaged upward and sent to Verizon. I didn't sign icloud first.

    My question is, I'm having a problem?

    No, if you have disabled find my iPhone. You can check it out by going to iCloud.com on a computer, open find my iPhone and see if your device is still on display. This it is, and it is connected to Wifi, you can select it and delete it again. It will ask you your password ID Apple/iCloud, and which will disable and erase the device. If you remove an instrument - this means that find my iPhone has been disabled. I wouldn't remove the device at this point.

    Once you are sure that Verizon is to have no problem with your device, you can then remove it from your iCloud account. But better not to do it until you get the all clear on their part. Easier to solve the problem if you are always bound...

    See you soon,.

  • Time and date of the Iphone 6s set contacts automatically / backup

    Hi my name is Rebecca. Please be patient, this is a long story with a question to which Apple for a month and a half has not been able to solve. The end of February, I went to Sprint to upgrade my iphone 6 to a 6 s. (my 6 had no problem). The backup and restore to the other went off without a hitch. Two weeks having the phone, date and the value automatically switched to a GMT setting which is 4 hours ahead of New York. Assumption is that the phone has been deserted. I got a new phone and everything has been backed up and restored again. Less than two weeks later, the same goes for the 2nd iphone 6 s.  I went to Sprint and got a 3rd iphone 6 s. backup and restored all again. Less than a week later for the 4th time, the new iphone 6 s time and date switched to the time zone GMT 4 hours ahead of New York. At this point, I called Apple Tech support. A very nice tech Jason worked with me for 2 weeks to fix this. He sent Apple a 4th iphone 6s. We did a backup and when the new phone came in did us a restore. A few days later, the same problem. Apple accuses Sprint, Sprint complaint to Apple. At this point, Sprint said that my sim card was corrupted and he sent me a new. On the phone with Jason, we did a reset of the iphone 6s failing manufacturers. Removed the corrupted sim card and put in a new vacuum. Phone restarts and when you get to the Setup screen, it asks "set up as a new user or a user to return. Jason said as a new user.  I clicked on new user. Following her request for an apple ID. Jason said I should put in my existing apple id (although it has been activated on as a new user). At this point the phone wouldn't turn on. On the phone with Sprint. They did not understand as to why the phone would not activate. Jason suggested that I put my original sim card in (which was noted as corrupted), then the active phone. At this stage because I had not done a restore, the only information on my phone now an old backup who had my contacts and some of the notes, images etc. Jason said to do a restore after just 24 hours to be sure of the time and the date stay correct. Not happened. Less than 24 hours, the date and time that is set to automatic changed to the GMT time zone. Jason was out of suggestions. We left him there. I am very angry to pay more than $800 for an iphone that feature very very important does not work. On mine, I restored my phone and thought what I'd do. I then did a backup. I'll stop my icloud. I have reset my builders phone by default and when I went through the whole upward I plugged my phone in itunes and restored my phone from my computer backup. (Icloud is always OFF). Less than 24 hours later at the date and time in GMT area again. Once again, that I have a phone very very expensive with a feature that is vital for me, I can't use. Yes, I could turn the machine off, but I shouldn't do that. So here's my question: Iphone 6, I have not had any problems with my icloud or my sim card or the date and time. 6 s IPhone that I do. I got iphone 4 brand new 6s with the same problem. Is - that my sim card is corrupt and transfer information corrupt, though only it worked fine in my iphone 6? Second question: I don't want to sign up for a new apple id and start from scratch. This will screw up my gmail which is linked to the apple ID. How can I back up my contacts only on my computer and then be able to reset my phone manufacturers by default, then erase all information from my existing apple ID in order to use again, but only restore contacts which is the worst part of transfer phones. Apps and notes, photos and all the rest is not a problem to start from scratch, but contact is almost impossible to have to type each hand one by one. Please someone out there with a solution. Thank you in advance.

  • Verizon computed using data differently than the iPhone 6 Plus

    Verizon seems to count on me by using more data than my iPhone 6 more fact.

    My iPhone was at 1.8 GB, Verizon already had 2 GB, my iPHone was at 2.7 Gb, Verizon has already shown/3 Gb.

    Nobody noticed this discrepancy?

    I called Verizon tech support and they told me that the iPhone sends data to Apple that does not appear in my iPhone 6 Plus' data counter.

    I did the test and for the first two days in the next legislature do not use it for any cellular - WiFi only (and use mobile phone data to support the poor wifi was disabled): he showed 397KO for two days - my iPhone with Apple communication seems to be this.

    Thus, it seems that Verizon recorded a higher than my iPHone data use, and any communication from my iPhone with Apple is not the cause.

    Your opinion?

    Your opinion?

    Everything you said Verizon is false. The iPhone saves all data sent over the cellular network. There are some data types that will always pass by cell phone:

    • Visual Voicemail
    • MMS messages
    • Push email notifications
    • All data that is transferred when the phone is asleep and not trendy, WiFi is disabled when the phone is in sleep mode to save battery

    Verizon numbers and phone numbers may be different for an entirely different reason. Records of phone as sent or received data, but do not count data that fails to send and which must be retransmitted. Verizon has this data. This happens usually if you have a very low cell signal.

    My experience with AT & T, is that their number and phone match almost exactly.

  • Is it possible to have the data stored in a set of a version of the iphone on a macbook pro?

    I have a game (canton) on my iPhone 5s and I would play on my mac because of the larger screen. The same edition of the games is available on a Macbook pro, but it will not save the data from my iPhone and it shows as two separate games. Is there a way to get around this? (If no, Apple, I'd really that if your company might consider it in the next updates)

    As Apple is not the developer of this game, Apple has nothing to do with how it works. Contact the developer to see if it is possible to do what you want. If this isn't the case, suggest that they they feel.

I can connect to the iPhone in DFU mode and iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. Popup message you must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes.

    If I click this, it warns me that factory settings will be restored and that the data will be lost. I don't want to lose my data. I don't have a backup.

    B. can save on my car iCloud account?

    C. they can restore my data to the new iPhone?

    D. is possible without leaving the logic memory chip Board can backup to my computer or iCloud drive?

    Thank you very much

    Apple does not sell to all parts of the iPhone. The only way you will get an iPhone logic board, is buying a recovered on another phone.

    The iPhone is not serviceable by the user.

    If you have not been back, the chance you will be able to recover your data is almost zero. You must back up before something goes wrong, not after.

    Erases data from Firefox should not impact bookmarks if you used Firefox interface.
