What do you mean by Disabled Is the battery dead, you don't have a SIM installed?

What happens when you connect it to your Mac system within iTunes?

If your phone says it is disabled, you MIGHT be able to unlock it by connecting it to a computer it had been previously synced with. But that has not been the case for a while and more than likely all your data is stuck on the phone, just out of reach.

If it says it is permanently disabled, I generally tell people, there is no solution for this right now that will allow you to keep your data. That doesn’t mean someone might find something, or Apple might change this at some point. But presently there is no way to get your data off a disabled phone.
