Unlock an iPhone

[wildwood]

My son borrowed my iPhone and inadvertently "locked it". He didnt realize he had done so and hasn't a clue how to unlock it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Just checking .... when you said your iPhone has been locked, you meant the phone will keep on asking you for the correct password before you can continue using the phone as normal? (passcode I think it's called)

Sounds like it to me, as his son couldn't really inadvertently "lock" and unlocked iPhone unless he synced it with the computer and restored it.

I believe you can reset the password for the lock code by syncing the phone with your computer.  There should be an option in iTunes to reset the passcode.

Thanks........I did as you said (and an Apple tech support) and resynched it with my computer and was able to reset my passcode.
