Holy Phone Hell!

[Pete]

So my Iphone screen was cracked, I had the screen replaced.  That night, I squatted to pick something up, and my phone fell from two feet, and cracked, at the bottom- and was unusable.  The crack, or something, would get stuck on Y on password y-y-y-y-y-y, and it locked me out of my iphone.  I go home, and I on my computer I am logged out of my email and facebook.  Ive been logged in for years, but somehow I get logged out. I use every saved password on my computer, none work.

 

So it turns out after 10 failed log in attempts, you have to restore your iphone.  Iphone Unavailable is the message.  To reset, I must enter my email password.  I cant access my passwords on my phone.  So to restore your iphone, you must confirm by responding to email or phone.  Im logged out of email and locked out of my phone.

 

Every password is on my phone- Medical, Financial, Work, Ebay- I dont even know where to begin to fix this mess.  What a week Im having!  Any advice is appreciated.  Cheers!

In the future, print a copy of your login ids and passwords every few months and stick it in your sock drawer.

Why anyone still uses the iPhone blows mind

Samsung and Google are both much better.

I have a iPhone7 (still works except have to put calls on speaker), a 4 year old Air Mac laptop and a 15 year old  desktop Mac. If phone is in thesame room I can answer it from the laptop or desktop. I have all my passwords saved on both Macs automatically and printed out in my file cabinet.  Been using Macs since 1985 (40 years).I have owned a Mac since 1995 and on my 5th Mac computer now.

Does your email client have a password recovery option where you just need to answer some security questions to reset your password?
