I forgot the passcode for my iPhone 5s, I tried entering the passcode multiple times and it says “iPhone is disabled Connect to iTunes”. Now I am locked out. How can I regain access? iPhone 5S, iOS 7.1.2

Wipe the phone entirely using DFU mode.

Try resetting your iPhone by pressing both the Home button and the Power button together for 30 seconds. When it asks you if you want to slide to turn it off, ignore this message and KEEP holding. Finally, the screen will go off and your iPhone will be re-setting. Wait for a couple of minutes and turn it on the usual way. If it still asks you for the passcode, the only way to get back into the iPhone is to plug it into the original computer with the original itunes and press “restore”.

Either remember the passcode or as tom says you need to enter dfu mode then iTunes will let you restore and yes you will lose everything that’s on the device unless you made a iCloud or iTunes backup before you forgot the code

Here are the steps for you, when you forgot iPhone passcode: Step 1: Connect iPhone to computer via a USB cable> launch iTunes on computer. Step 2: When you launch iTunes, it will automatically sync your device. But if it doesn’t, you need to do it on your own, which means you have to do the following steps: Click “View”> “Show Sidebar”, then your iPhone will be displayed in the left sidebar. Step 3: When iTunes have synced and backed up your device, please go to “Device” in the sidebar. Then click on Summary tab. Next go to “Restore iPhone” button. Step 4: Finally, click on “Restore Backup” to restore iPhone from iTunes backup files and then you can reset your iPhone passcode.
