[NJTechDiv] still working on the iphone

Hi Ken.

You can get iTunes for Windows and install it on your PC.  Then you connect your phone to the PC using the lightning cable, and iTunes should be able to see your phone.  

ITunes has a tab for accessibility, among other things.

I haven’t had much success with iTunes for Windows, but other people use it.  

Google something like download iTunes for Windows, and you should get to what you want.

Tracy

Hi list an update yesterday I had sherlock Washington on my a lady and he called apple accessibility for me he and they showed me how to do a hard restart which is the tap of the volume up, tap of the volume down then a hold of the power button.  I’m figuring that when I tried to restart the speech I by accident hit a wrong passcode and if you do that too many times your phone makes you wait.  I just tried that again and apparently nothing happened.  The problem is I have no sighted help that knows the iPhone and no support I expect now my sistger will downgrade me to a flip phone since she now regrets getting me the iPhone she has said she shouldn’t have gotten it for me. I’m on my own.  Is there a way to get at the phone on the computer. We looked at my account on Icloud it shows no phone is set up which doesn’t make sens I don’t have apple pay set up that was all I saw on the phone in the finish setting up your phone and I really don’t need that stuff yet.  Is there any way to get to it on my PC I don’t want to lose this phone that does still work.  It rings when I have the a lady call my number. So it’s a question of unlocking it.  How long must someone wait if he enters a wrong passcode too often this is a perfectly fine Iphone 2020 SE all of this started when siri got a stupid attack. I knew I should’a waited before moving up to 16.
