How to Recover Photos from Disabled iPhone

Most of us choose to set password for iPhone to prevent other people access any data on it. However, when you forget the password and try several times later, the iPhone is disabled. To unlock your disabled iPhone, you have to restore the device with iTunes or iCloud. However, since you haven’t backed up your iPhone for a long time, if you choose to restore the device, then the lovely photos about yesterday’s birthday part will say goodbye to you.

So is there a way to recover photos from disabled iPhone before the restore? Actually, you still have the possibility to backup your iPhone with iTunes, on the condition that you have synced the device with the Mac/PC computer before. If not, you cannot trust the computer with a password to make your iPhone connected.

Then does that mean you just cannot recover photos from locked iPhone? Well, there is another method if the computer can still recognize your iPhone. Connect your iPhone to computer, and then use iPhone photo data recovery tool to help you extract the photos from iPhone to computer.
