HT1212 i forgot my IPad password.  How can I open my IPad?

I forgot my IPad pass word.  What can I do?  I try to answer the security questions but they don't appear to be correct. 

For your iPad's passcode, follow the instructions on the HT1212 page that you posted from, they tell you how to reset a device : Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled.
If you've also forgotten your answers to your account's security questions (being able to answer them won't get you access to your iPad, that needs your passcode) then if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on your account then you can use that to reset them : If you forgot the answers to your Apple ID security questions.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will have to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : Contact Apple for help with Apple ID account security.
If your country isn't on that page then try this form and explain and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
When they've been reset, and if you don't already have a rescue email address, you can then add one for potential future use : Manage your Apple ID primary, rescue, alternate, and notification email addresses.

    You cannot get around Activation Lock without the oringinal owner disassociating the iPad from their account.
    See the Activation Lock FAQ for what you and they need to know.

    Forgotten passcode (Recovery Mode)
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button.
    5. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.

  • When i tried to download iOS8 on my iPad Mini it told me that I needed to connect my iPad to iTunes, I have done that and now it says I need to restore my iPad. How can I get my iPad working without losing everything on my iPad?

    When i tried to download iOS8 on my iPad Mini it told me that I needed to connect my iPad to iTunes, I have done that and now it says I need to restore my iPad. How can I get my iPad working without losing everything on my iPad? I don't want to lose my apps and photos!
    Help would be much appreciated!

    If you are getting the connect to iTunes screen then it's too late to take a new backup and/or copy anything off it. Prior to starting the update did you take a backup, either to the cloud and/or to your computer's iTunes ? If not then have you recently taken a backup that might have your photos and apps content/settings in it ?
    As long as the apps are still in your country's store then you should be able to redownload them via the Purchased tab in the App Store app (and the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes), and if the apps store their content on a server/cloud service then you might be able to get their content back from that - if they store their content on the device then you will need to have a backup.
    For our photos you could try doing a search for programs that claim to be able to recover content from a device - I haven't used any so I can't suggest one.

  • How can I open my ipad passcode with find my ipad is turn on

    how can I open my ipad passcode with my ipad is turn on

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPad but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPad with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.
    also, there are PhoneView and iRip.

  • How can I open my iPad's spotlight keyboard while using Voiceover?

    How can I open spotlight on my Retnina iPad with gestures. Swiping only seems to work with Voiceover turned off. IOS8

    Hello there, panoramaBobl.
    The following link to the online iPad User Guide for iOS 8 explains how to use the Spotlight Search on your iOS device:
    iPad User Guide - Spotlight Search
    http://help.apple.com/ipad/8/#/iPad8c86df4c

    Spotlight Search not only searches your iPad, but also shows suggestions from the App Store and the Internet. You may see suggestions for movie showtimes, nearby locations, and more.
    Search iPad.  Drag down the middle of any Home screen to reveal the search field. Results occur as you type; to hide the keyboard and see more results on the screen, tap Search. Tap an item in the list to open it.
    You can use Spotlight Search to find and open apps too.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,

  • HT1430 i forgot my ipad password how can i do?

    i forgot ipad password and i can't play anymore because it not my ipad it school ipad how can i do?

    If you have a passcode to the screen lock that you've forgotten, you will need to restore the iPad from the computer to which the iPad is synced. For information and instructions, see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    If that will not work, you'll need to put the iPad into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    If this is a school-owned iPad, though, you may need to have your school help you with this problem, particularly if they loaded apps on it that you don't have on your own computer.
    Regards.

    Hi ...
    If you can't remember the Passcode, if possible, restore the device from the computer it was last synced with by placing the device in recovery mode.
    Instructions here   > iOS: Unable to update or restore
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be presen

    You will probably need to restore using Recovery Mode now. You can read about it here.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4097
    Or you can follow this.
    Recovery Mode Instructions
    Disconnect the USB cable from the iPad, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off iPad: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for iPad to turn off.
    If you cannot turn off iPad using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the iPad turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
    While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to iPad. When you reconnect the USB cable, iPad should power on.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
    If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the recovery mode alert that iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode.
    Use iTunes to restore iPad.
