ITunes DID recognize new iPad mini, error when updating, now doesn't. Please help. I have a 700 dollar paperweight now.

Today I bought a brand new iPad mini 2, 32 gb. First, I backed up my old ipad mini to my hard drive. Then, I updated iTunes to the newest version. Then, I plugged in the new iPad mini, went through the set up, iTunes was working fine. I registered the iPad, then it suggested i update the iOS on the iPad. This is where things went south. After a few minutes, it stated "cannot update iOS 7 at this time" or something to that effect. Since that point, iTunes will not recognize the iPad. The iPad shows the "connect to iTunes" screen. When I plug it in, I hear the tone suggesting a new device is connected, but nothing happens. I've tried it in DFU mode, no results. I've tried putting it in recovery mode, nothing happens, just the same screen. I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it, following every step suggested through this site/apple support. I even uninstalled and installed an older version of iTunes (10.7) but same result. I've followed all troubleshooting steps, and nothing is working, so please don't suggest the same olf "iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows" page.
What should I do? Do I have to take this to the geniuses at the store? Will they even be able to help without having access to my computer?

  • I purchased an iPad mini on October 10th.  I want to return it and get the new ipad mini retina when it comes out.  How do I do that if the new ipad mini release date isn't until "later in November", which is beyond the 14 days from my purchase date?

    I purchased an iPad mini on October 10th.  I want to return it and get the new ipad mini retina when it comes out. I am currently still within the 14 day return/exchange window but how can I exchange it if the new ipad mini release date isn't until "later in November", which would be beyond the 14 days from my purchase date?  If apple announces a new version of a product you just purchased but won't actually release it for more than 14 days, how can you possibly exchange the one you just bought?  Is my only option to return the one I bought on the 10th (so return by 10/24) and then not have an iPad until the new one is available for purchase?  Or would it make any sense to return the one I bought, get a new one, which would presumably have another 14 day return window, and then exchange THAT one for the new ipad mini w/ retina when it comes out (hopefully within that second 14 day window)?

    Call the apple store you got it from and ask them. Sometimes in the past they've extended the 'no questions asked return' but only Apple can tell you for sure.

  • Bought new ipad mini. When usingiMessage it shows my daughters contact instead of mine.

    Bought new ipad mini. When usingiMessage it shows my daughters contact instead of mine.

    That's because you are using her Apple ID or sharing an Apple ID on your iPad.
    Do you have your own Apple ID? Do you share an ID? If so, is the ID her Apple ID?

    If you have wired Internet there are adoptions for you to add a router or airport express to build a Wi-Fi network.

    You should be storing your music on a computer that you sync your iPad mini to. You can then sync your iPod to the same computer to copy over the music to the iPod.

    I have all jar files related to Essbase in drivers folder. And all KMs related to Essbase in impexp folder. I have created CLASSPATH system variable with "D:\OraHome_ODI\oracledi\drivers". Should i need to add this path in PATH system variable?

    MOS Note 424232.1 says
    Such messages are probably due to either a stale Jython cache (.../scripting/cachedir folder) and / or insufficient access privileges attributed to the Unix user account which has launched either the ODI Agent or Designer GUI and is executing a Jython script and writing to the Jython cache (default value being .../lib/scripting/cachedir/packages folder).
    Alternative workarounds:
    1. Stop all ODI processes and remove the cachedir folder, the restart ODI and retest the process.
    2. Use a different "python.cachedir" information, on which the User has write privileges. This Java property may be set into the Jython Registry and specifies the directory used internally by Jython for cached information about Java packages in ".jar" files. If the directory is relative, it is interpreted relative to the Jython root. For complete information, refer to Jython documentation, at:
    http://www.jython.org/Project/userguide.html#the-jython-registry
    3. Try running Jython once as "root" in order to create the Jython cache directories or take appropriate administrative actions (for example, chmod 777....) to allow the user account to access these files.
    4. Please bear in mind that Unix is case sensitive... As such, do not forget to verify lower/upper case attributes of folder names.
    If the ODI process is run by an Agent and the message is displayed:
    1. Please check the ODI Agent in Topology Manager to determine on which host it is running then proceed to its installation folder and ...:
    2. Verify that Jython is included with the Agent installation folders:
    * In oracledi\bin - jython.sh
    * In oracledi\lib\scripting - jython.jar, cachedir, and lib
    * In oracle\lib\scripting\lib - numerous jython .py files
    3. Also give Unix user account full permissions to every file and folder in the Agent installation and the java installation.
    4. Restart the Agent.
    5. Test the Agent in Topology Manager (ensure that the hostname is correct). If the test is successful, retest the Package/Scenario.

  • I've uploaded my pics to my PC but now I can't delete them from the iPad, the little trash can does NOT appear, PLEASE HELP I have over 6000 photos I need to delete

    I've uploaded my pics to my PC but now I can't delete them from the iPad, PLEASE HELP the little trash can does NOT appear

    That's because you can't delete it directly from the phone.
    Since you synced not imported those pictures to your iphone using iTunes, you will need to do the opposite and unsync the pictures, in order to remove it from your phone.

  • I just got a new iPad mini and when i tried to update my apps, and sign in to the iTunes store, it is asking me for my husbands apple id and password. but the apple ID in Settings is mine, not his.

    How can I change the sign in so they ask for my Apple ID, not my husband's. This is a new device.

    Hi Marmee14,
    If your Apps were purchased with his Apple ID, it will still require his Apple ID to update them.  If they were purchased with your Apple ID then it will use yours.  Apps are linked to the Apple ID they are purchased with.
    If, for some reason his Apple ID is set somewhere in the system, this article gives how to change it.
    Apple ID: What to do after you change your Apple ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5796
    For example:
    App Store
    iOS 6 and later: Go to Settings > iTunes & App Store.
    If you signed out before changing your Apple ID, sign in with your current Apple ID.
    If you're still signed in with your previous Apple ID, tap your previous Apple ID and tap Sign Out. Then enter your current Apple ID to sign in.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
