After installing iOS7 update ipad sought passcode disabled restore dead! Now what?

After installing iOS7 update my ipad magically wanted a passcode to open. I tried several of my usual passwords but none worked and it disabled for increasing lengths of time. Eventually after reading up a bit about it I strated to restore it to factory settings but was interupted your this process and was unable to complete it fully (to be honest I'm not keen to do this anyway as I don't want to lose all my data - photos, and fail to see why I should simply becasue of a bug in iOS7). Now my ipad is totally dead and will not respond to anything. What can I do now?

It is still not working. I have had Apple support on the phone twice as each time I get through the restore process it comes up with an unexplained error (3194) which they keep telling me is because I have a firewall preventing it from happening. This is wrong because I have removed the firewall and it still comes up with the error message and will not restore. I now have to take it to the guys I have had look at my computers from time to time to sort it out (presumabley at my cost). If and or when it gets to the point to restore, yes I can restore from iCloud an should get all my data ok but I shouldn't really have to go through all this drama as the iPad is only very new and still under all of it's warranties etc Completely unimpressed with this whole thing.

Try to reset the device:

2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the

After installing ios7 my ipad keyboard is very slow for texting, emailing and entering passcode. very slow

after installing ios7 on my ipad the keyboard is very slow, delayed. text, email and passcode.

Hi Knackerman, I was racking my brain trying to think how I did this and then I remembered that at the time because of other problems I was having with my iPad and it was under extended warranty, they offered to replace it for me.
When I went to collect new one they asked if I wanted the to download iOS7 and they replied, NO, I did not, well that was enough for me and I told them to please leave it as is.
I just ignore all the reminders I receive to download iOS7 on my phone and iPad.
I am very happy with my 6 version.
I am very sorry I am unable to help, I know how you feel, I hated it, it caused so many glitches to my otherwise perfect iPad before instalment.
Overall though, I think Apple has to shake itself up, they are getting left behind in the Samsung wake.

Can't sync music after installing ios7 on ipad mini

How can I sync with my computer? Since I installed ios7 iTunes does not see my ipad

You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
Try again to see if the problem persists.

Welcome to Apple Discussions, Freepisces
I have all the latest updates on my Macs, and I have no problem at all.
If you applied the latest (7.4.1) QT update, your problem may be due to the fact that the System Requirements for QuickTime 7.4.1 for Tiger include Mac OS X 10.4.9 or later, and you show that you are using Mac OS X (10.4.3). You can check which QT version you have installed using the QuickTime Player > About QuickTime Player menu command.
If your QT version is an older one that is compatible with your Mac OS, and if you have not done so since you applied the QT update, repairing permissions may help you.
If the problem is somehow related to your iSight rather than to your QT software, Apple's How to Troubleshoot iSight may help you identify and fix your problem.
Unless you have a compelling reason for not doing so, you should consider updating to the latest version of Tiger (10.4.11). To find out what improvements you are missing by staying with 10.4.3, see some of the "About the Mac OS X 10.4.xx Update" documents for updates later than 10.4.3. A couple of examples are:
• About the Mac OS X 10.4.6 Update (combo) and
• About the Mac OS X 10.4.11 Update
If you are interested, other "About..." documents are linked in this search list.
Because System Requirements for the latest combo applicable to your MacBook, Mac OS X 10.4.11 Combo Update (Intel), are for Mac OS X 10.4.4 or later, you will need at least two steps to upgrade from your Mac OS X (10.4.3), so pay careful attention to the System Requirements of any updates you plan to apply.

After installing ios7 on my iphone4s I essential have lost speaker volume on and off

I lose speaker volume on and off after installing ios7 update on iphone4s. I reset my phone and then it just started again with the problem. It fixed it briefly

Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings. This will not affect data. Remove the car speakers from the phone under Bluetooth, and remove the phone from the car stereo. After that place both devices back into pairing mode and reconnect.

UnSatisfaction after installing ios7.

After installing ios7. My 4s became very lag. And whats more is that there are apps exit by itself.
Even safari did that. Really frustrates me. Especially when u are play game half way through.
As i was typing this, it lagged. Even worst than android phones.
And when change to Chinese, it takes the system 1 or 2 second to react and show the words i have typed.
IF ios7 is not suitable for 4s. Shouldn't apple inc state it before it is even release?

Found this in another thread. I'm trying it out now.
"Basically, I had to download the 'Find My Friends' app, log in to my iCloud account and accept the Terms and Conditions in the app (which loaded with no problems). After doing this, all iCloud functions were restored."
Hopefully it works.
Good Luck!

Usually i back my IPhone with ICloud, after installing IOS 5 it asked me to restore from I Tunes what i have to do?

If your iPhone does not search for a wi-fi connection before you are asked whether you want to set it up as new phone or restore a backup from iTunes, then I guess you have the same issue as highlighted in this thread:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/19638850?ac_cid=tw123456#19638850
iCloud back ups can only be accessed via wi-fi that's why you are not granted this option, I have the exact same issue.

During the update, you must have entered a 4 digit passcode. You must use the same 4 digit to unlock.
If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup).
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 present.
You may have to force iPad/iPod into Recovery Mode

Any chance I can recover the photos and other things on iPad after installing iOS7

After installing iOS7, my photos, all apps/games had gone. I can see the photos from a data recovery programme but couldn't recover them. Any chance that I can restore the previous version and recover all the data?
I didn't back up as I have changed laptop recently too, so the last back up time was long time ago.

I updated on iPad. As I had new laptop, so I didn't back up anything on the new laptop, the old one was long time ago, so photos taken recenlty had all gone. I can see the photos from a data recovery programme (trial) but is there any way to recover them without buying the programme?

Mini Ipad got slow after installing iOS7

Hi there,
my Mini Ipad got really slow after installing iOS7. The same apps are working much slower. What can i do? Im even considering going back o iOS6, if its even possible.
I have already tried:
Restarting the device
Changing iCloud Sync configurations
I haven´t try:
Reseting all configurations, cause i don´t want to lose any infos and I don´t know exactly what im going to lose.
Any suggestions? Thank you!

This is not possible. Apple does not support downgrading.

Ipad won't start up after installing an update. Shows itunes icon with cord from the side.

ipad won'tstaart up after installing an update. Shows, itune icon and cord going tothe side. Cant make it do anything else.

That means that you have to restore the de ice using iTunes on a computer. There is nothing else that you can do to fix it now and you cannot back it up now either. Connect the iPad to your computer and launch iTunes and restore the iPad.
IF you don't have a computer, find someone that has one running iTunes or go to an Apple Store and ask them to restore it for you.
