  • My ipad mini says to connect to itunes, and I try to restore it, but after its done extracting a message comes up saying that device is not found, is there anyway i can fix this? I don't care if i don't get my stuff back

    My iPad mini says to connect to iTunes, and I try to restore it, but after its done extracting a message comes up saying that device is not found, is there anyway i can fix this? I don't care if i don't get my stuff back, i just want my iPad restored to its starting settings.

    If everything else that you try fails, I would try using another computer. Since you don't care about saving any data, any computer that is running the latest version of iTunes might be able to restore the iPad. You could make an appointment at an Apple Store Genius Bar and they can do it for you.
    If that isn't feasible for you, try using a different cable, a different USB port. reboot the computer, and reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen. Then try again.

  • My ipad mini won't connect to my computer anymore.

    my ipad mini wont connet to my computer anymore, i plug it in i see the battery for a second then it says not charging and it will not connect with itunes. it has worked fine up until now.

    If you are running a Mac, the repair for your iOS device not being seen by iTunes could be very simple : repair your permissions. Create a bootable USB keychain drive with the latest version of OSX on it. Boot from it. Use Disk Utility to repair the permissions.
    NOTE : Please remember to continue running permissions repair until it returns zero fixes. This fix also assumes you have diligently updated your Mac to the very latest OS and other software available from Apple.
    Then just boot from your internal drive as normal, and see if it works. I don't know if this will work for you, but it is another possibility to try, and worked for a Mac Pro tower (running 10.8.5 and the latest version of iTunes 11.1.x).

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘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.

  • New iPad Mini is not connecting to Wi-Fi.

    I AM FURIOUS! IT IS CHRISTMAS AND MY BRAND NEW IPAD MINI IS NOT CONNECTING TO WIFI!
    Excuse me - I am a owner of a chain of computer repair stores.. I am not a amature. Thats my qualification.
    EVERY SINGLE DEVICE CONNECTS TO THE ROUTER.. iPad 2 iPad 3 iPhone 5 iPhone 4 iPhone 4s and my macbook pro.
    I DID EVERYTHING!   CLEARLY ALL FINGERS POINT TO THE DEVICE HARDWARE MALFUNCTION
    Reset the router, Installed a new router, Updated the iPad Mini software (5 times with restore) Changes the wifi password endless times, reset everything countless times.
    this disgusts me that APPLE would release devices with bugs in it. FIX THIS NOW.
    Sincerely, Your LOYAL CUSTOMERS!
    i'm furious i'm furious i'm extremely mad right now. i have nothing to say besides i am very upset...
    (NOTE! Bought my iPhone 5 the day it was released (expected bugs) since the day of release APPLE has replaced my iPhone 5  (7) times in only a few months. WHERE IS THE R&D GUYS?!~
    stilll mad...
    <Re-Titled By Host>

    This is an iPad user to user forum. Apple doesn't read or respond. We'll try to help you.
    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • HT1695 ipad Mini is not connecting to my known wi-fi networks

    My iPad Mini is not connecting to my known wifi networks and keeps telling me that I'm "Unable to Join."  What can I do to fix this problem?

    I doubt that your problem is identical. RJ4778 is having problems connecting to known networks (those to which he has connected  before).
    It would be best if you started your own thread and detail what networks you are talking about. Give details.

  • Ipad mini won't connect to WiFi

    Recently, my daughter misplaced her iPad mini.  After a long search, we found it at home unharmed. However, I think I might have changed a setting through our shared Apple ID when it was missing but I can't figure out what or how.  The iPad mini will not connect to our WiFi now, not even if I use my phone as a Hotspot. Help!
    Thank you!

    Hello hokieflag92,
    After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help with Wi-Fi. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice for the issue you are experiencing:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    Resolution
    Occasionally while using your iOS device, you may notice unexpected Wi-Fi behavior:
    Difficulty locating or connecting to a network
    Unexpected Wi-Fi signal strength or disconnects
    Inability to access the Internet
    Not automatically connecting to Wi-Fi when expected
    Follow these steps to troubleshoot the above issues:
    Be sure you're in range of your Wi-Fi router (access point).
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and on. If your Wi-Fi setting is dimmed, follow these steps.
    Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and cable or DSL modem are connected to power, turned on, and connected to the Internet. If not, refer to your network administrator or Internet service provider (ISP) for assistance.
    Restart your iOS device.
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you're connected.
    Tap  and Forget this Network.
    Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network. 
    Note: You may need to enter your Wi-Fi password again if your network requires one.
    Turn your Wi-Fi router off and on2. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
    Update your device to the latest version of software.
    Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware2. For AirPort Base Stations, install updates using the AirPort Utility.
    If the issue is still unresolved
    Follow the steps below for the issue you're experiencing.

    What are you trying to do?
    The Bluetooth is meant for earplug, headset, keyboard, car hands-free set, and speakers.
    You need a 3rd party app to do BT file transfer or other functions between iDevices.
