The message is referring to iTunes on your computer, not the iPad : http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
The built-in apps on the iPad can only be updated via iOS updates, so if your iPad mini is on iOS 6.0.2 then its up-to-date

Hi there, Im not able to reactivate my Ipad2 w 7iOS after I backed all on icloud&erased all content&settings.It showed its linked to my apple id (showing the first letters of my apple id/email address) when I wanted to set it up. When I tried to log in - nothin worked, neither apple id or my psw. I checked the activation help on website and I looked up alsoon my icloud account and checked whether I dont have it in my all devices - but nothing.I also tried my cousin email and apple id who was the previous owner and that didnt work either. I was also in certified centre services and they werent able to help me either. All it shows still, this ipad is linked to my apple id.Could someone help me?

I finally got the solution from a friend at the TSR forum. It was a problem with QUicktime 7.2. I needed to install this update:

I have found a IPAD, searched everywhere to find the owner, facebook, Apple etc. I have now erased all data but when I turn it on it says the IPAD is currently linked to an apple ID. Can I override or delete this?

I have bought a new car and found an IPAD in the back seat. The dealer cannot tell me who drove the car. I serached everywhere to find the owner, Facebook, etc
I decided to erase all the data from the IPAD, everything went OK BUT when I tried to set it up, it asked me for the owners apple ID.
The message is "this IPAD is currenly linked to an Apple ID"
Is there a way to delete this account thus allowing me to use it.
If not, I guess I'll throw it away

Activation Lock is doing exactly what it was designed to do - preventing a non-owner from using the device as their own.
But why just "throw it away"? The dealership should be willing to tuck it away in their lost and found, as the owner may well show up looking for it?

We are fellow users here on these forums. If you bought the iPad from another person and you are being asked for their id and password to activate it then you will need to contact that previous owner and ask them to remove it from their account : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515

I reset my mums ipad and its linked to an apple id and the email adress to it no longer exist's

i have reset my mums iPad and its linked to an apple Id and the email that she used she doesn't have no more

Assuming that you are on the activation screen and can't remember the account's password, then have you tried getting the password reset via http://iforgot.apple.com (do you or your mother remember the answers to the account's security questions) ?
If you can't get the password reset via that page then try contacting Support in your country, they should be able to reset the password.

How to use Airplay to sync iPad with Apple TV

I have a new imac which is linked to my Apple TV, but I want to sync my iPad to the Apple TV so I can view apps. Do I need to download Airplay on the iPad. Couldn't find a download link. Help please!

You cannot sync with the Apple TV. You can use AirPlay to stream iPad content to your TV.

My MacBook Pro iTunes movie purchase is not showing in iTunes store movie purchases nor does it show on my iPad or Apple TV. Can someone please help me with a solution? Thanks.

First of all, I live in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Sometimes, I use a VPN to search on the web here. I purchased Toy Story 3 on my MacBook Pro 2011 OS/X - Lion through iTunes. I initially had trouble downloading it which may be due to being on and off the VPN but after a while it finally downloaded and shows up in my iTunes library on my MacBook.
Under my Apple ID account (which is the only Apple ID account I have), I look under purchase history and it shows that I paid for Toy Story which is where I got my Order # from. But if you go to the iTunes Store then to the Quick Links then click on Purchased, under all my Movies, it does NOT show Toy Story 3 as one of my movies.
Now when I go to my iPad (3rd gen.), Toy Story 3 does not show up under purchased movies (all or not on my iPad). It does not show up on my Apple TV as well. If I want to have Toy Story 3 on my iPad or Apple TV, then it says I have to purchase it again.
I have searched for help via Apple support communities but so far none of their solutions have worked for me. I have tried logging off iTunes & App Store on iPad and also shutting down the iPad. I also made sure that under iTunes Preferences>Store that iTunes in the Clouds purchases is checked. Can someone please help me with this? Your consideration is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks King_Penguin for taking time to read and reply.
I just purchased this movie on Thursday, May 15, so just a few days ago. I have never had any trouble whatsoever since I have been in Vietnam. I have downloaded several movies and even music and they have all synced to my respected Apple products except for this purchase.
Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean by studios and different versions. Could you please explain?
I checked my purchased list in my purchase history under my account and there are no hidden items.

Since upgrading iTunes 10.5.1.42, I have been unable to use the "Advanced - Create iPad or Apple TV Version" to convert movies.

I have been unable to use the "Advanced - Create iPad or Apple TV Version" to convert my movies for use with my iPad2. The movie will go through the conversion process, and is the correct length, but the video is a black and there is no sound? Has anyone found a similar problem? If so, what can I do to fix the problem? Before I used Handbrake to convert the videos which worked well, but now that is not working either .

No, there is no direct download link. Those are days of the past, I'm afraid. You may need to reinstall Mavericks.
Install or Reinstall Yosemite, Mavericks, Mountain Lion, or Lion from Scratch
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
How to Clean Install OS X Yosemite
OS X Mavericks- Erase and reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Erase and reinstall OS X
OS X Lion- Erase and reinstall Mac OS X
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
because it is three times faster than wireless.

My previous machine has Itunes Installed, and I deauthorized the machine so I unlinked to my Apple ID, if this is correct.
Anyway, Dropbox is also not connecting....so I do not know how to make it woek. please help!

I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account. I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there. On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back. Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email. The device is currently useless.
The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

Having second hand iPhone 4 of family member now recognized as a device linked to my apple account and not theirs.

I'm sure this has been covered in another tread but I haven't been able to locate a solution to my query so here goes...
I have acquired an iphone 4 (and an iPad 2 but not too concerned with it in this discussion) from a deceased relative. Have unlocked the phone as my uncle's carrier was vodafone which differs from my carrier so no problems there...
The phone is working perfectly as a phone but in terms of transferring apps from my old phone which i have backed up to my macbook pro's itunes to my uncle's phone is proving an issue. In addition to this my old iphone without a sim card but with 3G or Wifi enabled will receive imessages rather than my uncles.
Essentially my uncle's iphone does not seem to respond as a piece of apple tech when synced with my itunes.
I am aware that there is issues with iphones and people having acquired them second hand have been told they have essentially bought a pricey paperweight.
Where my situation differs is I have the account details for my uncle's apple account.
Is there any way given that i have these details i can have my uncle's iphone recognized as a device linked to my apple account so that i can receive imessages and sync backed up apps from my old iphone 4 to this iphone.
Any instructions would be really appreciated and again if this has been covered before please bear with me
Eoghan

Contacted Apples ID support who addressed this issue for me. Many thanks
