So my phone wont let me in unlock it. I tried to type in my password, but it wont let me press 7, 8, or 9. My password contains a 7! OMG! This just happend out of no where. One second I was checking my e-mail, and the next I cant press the 7 button. I started freakin out and ended up locking the phone. I locked it so many times out of frustration, it said "iphone is disabled, connect to itunes." so i did and it backed it up, thank god. Anyways, i tried to press my password again and the keys 7, 8, and 9 wont press anymore. Is there anyway i can either enter my password through the computer or maybe reset it? Damn it, why'd i have to be born on the 7th :(
I have the origional iphone by the way. not sure if that makes a difference. And i dont feel the need to get another iphone, seeing as this is my second one that i paid full price for. (my first one got stolen :( bastards.). And yes, I am a Newbie. Thanks for all who pointed that out. I was checking all over the place to see if anyone had the same problem. but they didn't so I had to post.
PLEASE HELP!! I've been without my Iphone for two days!!!
 
hmm sounds like a bad situation, first off if your still under Apple's warranty then i would go and ask them for a replacement because that is covered under there 1 year warranty.. IF NOT, I am pretty sure that you can't access the passcode preferences from itunes or by hooking it up to your computer, maybe someone else has some info I am unaware of?
 
Did you try resetting the phone by holding the home and top key at the same time? that's how i've fixed that problem for people in the past.
