What do you mean by disabled?

i think he need to wait for few thousand minutes in order to enter his passcode once again. happens to my iPhone when my nephew key in multiple times. btw TS did you do any iCloud backup?

No backup done. I don't think it allows you to rekey your password after it has been disabled.

Seems like only way is to do factory reset. Unless I have Steve job as friend as somebody suggested:s13:

Sorry, didn't mean to hijacked this thread. Just that I am also facing the same issue and I am currently out of option.

Hi, I am also facing the same issue with my IPad. It was lockup and need to wait for 60min before you can attempt with the passcode.

I have tried means and ways I can find on the net and youtube but it still doesn't help. I have tried holding both the home and power button the letting go after seeing the Apple logo and hoping for the connection to iTunes message, but it didn't show up.

I am reluctant to send in my unit to service center as of now. Anyone has any tips on the recovery..?

Many Thanks and appreciated.

last thing you could do is dfu mode and factory reset it. but bear in mind if you had set your device with find my iPhone on, you must remember the email and password you've set earlier or else it will be a paperweight.

I think if you have activated 2FA you can use the recovery key to unlock the device.
