The iPad screen is stuck on the connect to itunes and when I do it wants me to restore my ipad. Any suggestions?
Yes. Restore with iTunes. That's your only option. You can restore from the iCloud backup after you get the iPad up and running again. You will have to erase the iPad again after restoring. Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings and then start all over again with the iPad.
The iPad fully functions as PC free, but you are still taking a chance if you don't have a computer to use in situations like this. You still have to "repair" with a computer running iTumes. -
How do I get iPad working without itunes and a computer when it wants to be hooked to iTunes after a reset?

Use a friends computer. IF the ipad is telling you to connect to iTunes that is what you need to do, there is no bypassing this. -
I just bought an ipod touch 1st gen, the battery was totally dead, when it was charged enough to turn on I did a total restore. Now there is a picture of the usb cord with the itunes symbol above it. I assume the means it wants me to connect it to itunes but when I do it dosnt show up on the side bar in my itunes. I waited ten min. nothing. Right now I am chaging it using my ipads ac adapter. Please help

Hi
Welcome to the real world!
Apple software ***** and have done that for a long time. Its unbeliveable that we all time after time will pay so much for all these problems.
I have also an iTouch 3g and and a Philips DMP 580 speaker with dockstation. And my 3g worked perfekt with iOS 4.3.5 in the dockingstation until today where I upgraded to iOS 5.0.
After that I can´t I powerload or use the speakers in the musicsystem anymore.
How can anyone release such a OS if they know anything about programming OS software ?
Its completely madness that we have to spend so much time on something that should have been OK when released :-(
And now I can´t return to my latest iOS 4.3.5 anymore and I can´t find anywhere someone that can tell me how to do downgrade iOS 5.0 to iOS 4.3.5 - if possible !!!
All that just to tell you "that you are not alone"
Frienly regards

Husbands and my iPhone 4 home button faulty at same time.
My husband I noticed that the home button was unusable at the same time and then started working again at the same time. We both had a good signal and were in the same room. Today the same thing happened didn't work then did around the same time..
I checked with my daughter and her home button has been having problems during the times we have had them too. Does anybody think this is all just coincidental?

My iPad 2 has a hoe button that is not responding constantly. It will either work right away or not respond for up to an hour. I have tried all of the suggestions posted on other questions and it's becoming ridiculous. I have a warranty but am afraid that if I get another iPad 2 the problem will continue on the new one.

If your iPad is defective and is still under warranty, you can take it to an Apple Authorized Repair Center and get it fixed. If you are worried about a defective replacement, then a repair may be a better way to go. <Apple Authorized Repair Centers>
Personally, I would prefer getting a replacement. You read about many defects here in this forum, but they only represent a tiny percentage of all iPads sold.

I set up my iPad 2 on my cousins MacPc, I dont have a computer or iTunes. Can I download my own apps and songs now or do i need to do eveything from his iTunes? Do I need my own iTunes account to get apps? Help I dont really know what or how to do it.
Install iTunes on your Acer and you can back up the iPhone. Or back it up to iCloud. If you do not back it up you can get it unlocked, but you will lose all of your content.
You can get iTunes from http://www.apple.com/itunes.
Even after unlocking I'm not sure it will work on Straight Talk, because last time I checked ST used Verizon as its carrier, and an AT&T iPhone 4 is not compatible with Verizon's network. You can probably use it on Net 10 or T-Mobile once it is unlocked. -
