My iPad conveys that it is disabled, and that I need to connect to iTunes. When I connect to iTunes I get a message that I need to enter my pass code and open my Ipad, but I don't get the scree with the number board to open with a password. How do I fix this?
You will need to restore it. The sidebar of your iPad appears on itunes even if you dont enter the passcode. There's the option to restore it. More info:

I just updated my Ipad 2 to IOS 7, now it is asking me for a passcode. I never set a passcode on my Ipad, so how can I enter a passcode. Earlier today I upgraded my Iphone 5 to IOS 7 and it asked me to set a passcode, which now works fine on my Phone. I tried using the OIS7 passcode I use on my Iphone 5 and it did not work and now my Ipad is disabled. Both devices are on icloud and share the same apple id. The Ipad screen says slide to set up but then there is a prompt for passcode, not for setting up passcode
I called Apple Support and a supervisor helped resolve this for me on my iPad. I suggest calling them for help as this is obviously an issue with the iOS 7 update - she helped me without charge. I could be missing something in my upcoming description, so do not take this as complete - call them.
I had to update iTunes on my Mac Air to the latest version, and I had an iCloud backup from the day I updated to iOS7. Have iTunes open but do NOT connect your iPad yet. Shut down the iPad. Then press/hold the Home key on the iPad while you connect the USB from the iPad to the computer (an image of the USB cable appeared on the iPad). Follow the prompts in iTunes to restore and then backup using iCloud. When the iPad rebooted again to do the backup install, I got the same pass code issue and iTunes would not recognize the iPad without entering a pass code. I disconnected the iPad, turned it off, pressed the Home key while connecting the USB cable. When I did the restore and backup from iCloud the second time, it worked without the pass code issue occurring. -

Welcome to the Apple Community Robin.
Contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan. -

I forgot my iPhone pass code and now I can't backup my phone
Last night I changed my pass code due to privacy reasons. Then when I went to put it in today it didn't work. I tried and waited patiently whilst it was disabled. Then I accidentally disabled it again and now it must be connected to iTunes. I don't mind having to restore it but I want to ensure I don't lose my photos. When plugged in to iTunes it tells me that for it to access it to respond from iPhone, which for obvious reasons I can't do. So I need some help! Please I am a teenage girl who basically lives on her iPhone so pleaseeeee help!

I just got an IPAD mini as a gift, set it up and now it's disabled. I can't do anything. Thanks.
You should be able to reset it using the instructions on the page that you posted. If when you connect it to your computer's iTunes you get a prompt to enter the passcode, then use the instructions in the second half of that page, under the 'If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer' heading

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

I downloaded IOS 7 to my computer and now my iPad is disabled without me putting in a passcode
I updated my iPad with OS 7 and now it is asking for a passcode that I did not put itn and now it is dasabled. Does anyone know what I can do to enable it?
Of course the user entered a passcode, this is part of the iOS 7 install.
Enter the password that the user created, or restore the device via iTunes on the computer that it normally syncs with to remove the passcode. -
I have set a new pass code and now it wont work I really dont want to do a restore and lose all of my info on my Ipod hopefully someone can help.
Yes there is Left click mouse on the picture. List a peers open in Windows Live Gallery click on fix make adjustments and print or save picture. One way. A nother way is opening it up in Microsoft Office 2010 and click on tools and enable tool bars. Some pinters have photo software included and so does your camera software. To add text to photos open it up in paint. I hope this answered your question. Plus their is Snapfish but I nevered used it.
