If you entered the wrong passcode on iPhone lock screen multiple times, an alert will tell you that your iPhone is disabled. Learn what to do if you see “[الجهاز] Not Available” or “Security Lock” on your iPhone or iPad.

And if you can’t remember your passcode when you try again, use a computer to put your iPhone into recovery mode. Recovery mode allows you to erase your iPhone, giving you access to set it up again.

After you erase your iPhone, you can restore your data and settings from a backup. If you haven’t backed up your iPhone, you can set it up as a new device and then download any data you have in iCloud.

Step 1: This process requires a Mac or a PC, if you are using a PC, make sure it is running Windows 10 or later, and iTunes is installed, and you also need the cable that came with your iPhone, or another compatible cable, To connect your iPhone to your computer.
