The iTunes icon and cable indicates that it's gone into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If you haven't got the current version of iTunes installed in your computer then download and install it (http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/) , and you should then be able to reset your iPad and restore/resync your content to it.
If you computer still doesn't recognise your iPad then try the troubleshooting on these pages :

    You should be able to reconnect to iTunes and then you should see an option to restore to your ipad from your last back up in iTunes.

  • HT4623 I upgraded my ipad to ios 7 and it's one requesting a passcode  have no idea what it is because I never had a passcode. Tried to connect to iTunes on my mac but still won't work

    I upgraded my ipad to ios 7 and now it's asking for a passcode. Have no idea what to enter because I never needed a passcode. Connected it to iTunes on my mac but still doesn't work

    Hi Lmprettyman,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    This article has more information on passcode lock and how to return your iPod to working order:
    iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
    If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer
    If you see one of following alerts, you need to erase the device:
    "iTunes could not connect to the [device] because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the [device] before it can be used with iTunes."
    "You haven't chosen to have [device] trust this computer"
    If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
    Alternatively, place the device in recovery mode and restore it to erase the device:
    Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    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 shut down.
    While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
    iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.
    All the best,
    Jeremy

  • HT4623 I updated my ipad from IOS 7 following prompting and ended up with connect to itunes icon. When trying to restore, the process keeps aborting after 30 mins with an unknown error message. Any ideas to overcome this problem?

    Earlier today I was asked to update mu IOS which I did through my wifi (power connected). On return I just had the "connect to Itunes" icon. I've tried to restore the settings as suggested on the summary page but after downloading and verifying the connections and device the restoration locks up after about 30-40minutes due to an unknown error.
    Is there anything I can do to overcome this?

  • I am receiving an error that says "cannot connect to iTunes store in the app store on my new Verizon iPhone 4...can someone help please?

    Receiving the above error in the title...please help

    Ok, I found a solution that worked for me when trying to connect to the iTunes store by tapping the "update" button in the "App Store" app on my iPad 2. Before the solution was implemented I'd always get the error message "cannot connect to iTunes store". Once the solution was implemented I now can connect to iTunes using the "update" button in the "App Store" app and I get the normal message "All apps are up to date". The solution is this:  go into Settings, then General, then scroll to the bottom where it says Date and Time. Tap Date and Time and then turn OFF Set Automatically. When you do that a new option will be added that says Set Date and Time. Tap it. You'll now get a drop down feature. Set the Date AHEAD 2 YEARS. The Time you can leave alone.
    Once you do that you might get a bunch of reminders and messages that your apps and stuff haven't been updated in two years. Click cancel or close on each of those messages or reminders. Now go back into Settings, General, Date and Time, and turn Set Automatically back to ON. Reboot your iPad. Open the App Store app again and go to the Update button. It might ask you to log back in to your iTunes account. It should now work. If not, close the App Store app completely and open again and try the update button. Hope this helps.

  • Upgrading unlocked 3GS from os3 to os6..and now it won't activate! Someone help me please!

    Hello,
    iPhone 3GS (8GB)
    Many of my apps stopped working because I was still running on operating system 4. I upgraded from os4 to os6 on my unlocked 3GS...and now it won't activate. I get the below error message:
    "Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable. Try connecting your iPhone to iTunes to activate it, or try again in a couple of minutes"
    Well, I tried with iTunes and similar error message that activation is not possible at this time. I have waited and tried many many times over the past week and it won't activated
    This 3GS phone I bought from a friend in the UK. It was locked to the carrier O2 in the UK. I had it unlocked and have been using a prepaid carrier since. I am currently studying in Spain and need help how I can fix this issue?
    The nearest Apple store is 1 hour away. I took it to a local phone technician and he said it could not be fixed. I can't believe that this is true as it is just a software problem because the hardware of the phone works perfectly.
    I would greatly appreciated if any expert out there could help me please!
    Many thanks,
    Daniel

    Hi..thanks for your advice!
    Ok, I am student so buying a new phone is not possible ;( This experience has turned me off Apple anyway! All I did was click yes to their iTunes upgrade prompt asking me if I want to update....and now I don't have a phone and can't access all my backup etc on my iTunes because it seems the only way to get to it is with another iPhone!?
    I can't believe that through the Apple recycling program I could possibly get $50 for this phone because the hardware is perfect but there is no support for this issue...feels like Apple is just trying to force everyone with hacked phone to buy new ones!

  • I powered my ipod off but when i tried to turn it back on it said i needed to connect to itunes. i tried but nothing happened HELP!!!!

    Help me
    nothings happening!!!

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                 
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • I tried to update my phone to the ios 7.06 and it messed up my phone and said i need to connnect to itunes. is there anyway i can turn my phone on without itunes?

    I tried to update my phone to the IOS 7.06 and it messed up my phone and said i need to connect to itunes. Is there any way i can fix my phone without connection to itunes because i am out of town

    You'll very likely need iTunes.  But you might as well try a reset since you're out of town.
    Hold the on/off and home buttons together for about 10 seconds.  Hopefully you will see an Apple logo and then some progress.

  • Upgrading original iPad to ios 5

    I want to upgrade my original iPad to the new IOS 5 Operating System. Can not find instructions on how to do it. I have my iPad connected to my Mac but don't know where to do from here.... can someone help. Thanks!

    See
    iOS 5: Updating your device to iOS 5
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
    iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect to your computer & click on the "Update your device using iTunes".
    Tip - You may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. After you update to iOS 5.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

  • After upgrading my ipad to ios 7, text messaging doesn't work

    after upgrading my ipad to ios 7, text messaging doesn't work

    Assuming you have Messages on. You can try two things the first is a simpler than the second. Go to this site https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/, click on Manage your ID, log in and check if your Apple ID for your Messages and FaceTime apps is the the same as your primary email address. When I went there I saw a message that I should make them the same, for some reason they weren't, after I clicked on the submit to make them the same I haven't had any problem with either. Previously I kept getting signed out of both and had to constantly reenter my password to get them working. Quite a few times they wouldn't connect at all.
    The second thing you can try is in Settings - General - Reset, and reset all settings. You will then have to reenter a lot of information such as account user names and passwords but this seemed to correct things for a lot of people. The first option is easier and worked for me so I'd give it a try.
