Can't activate my new iPad air

Hi! I really need some help. I got my new Ipad air today and was so excited..but it will not activate. I can't redial the password to my wifi, and I can't go back to activate with itunes.. What to do? any ideas?

Try a reset first: Press and hold both Sleep/Wake and Home buttons until the Apple logo appears.
If the reset doesn't fix it, try a restore:

  • Can't sync my new ipad Air to my Leopard iMac

    I just bought a new iPad Air and discovered that I can't sync to my iMac (Leopard). 
    I was going to upgrade to Snow Leopard but could not as I don't have enough space (2 GB).
    Don't know what to do as I would like to transfer most info from my current iPad 2 to iPad Air.

    I was told that if I sync my current iPad 2 to another computer,it will wipe out all my data. Is this true?
    That is true. There are, however, ways to transfer sync to another computer without losing your data. Check out this user tip from TuringTest:

    Transferring your prepaid cellular data account depends on your carrier. AT&T lets you move it yourself when you go to Cellular Data in Settings and log into your account with your previous AT&T user name and password. For iPads with Sprint service, you can set up an account on the new iPad and contact Sprint Customer Care (888-211-4727 and go through the menus) to deactivate the old plan and get credit for unused service. For Verizon, call the company’s customer service number for mobile broadband support (800-786-8419) and ask to have your account transferred.

  • Can i activate friends new ipad using my computer since hers is broken?

    Can I activiate friends new ipad using my computer since hers is broken?  will it automatically sync my photos and music or can I select not to sync it and just activate it. 

    Yes.  However, if you load anything onto her iPad from your library, when she finally gets her own iTunes up and running again, she'll lose your stuff in lieu of her own library.  No big deal.  Also, down the road when her own iTunes is up she can do a factory restore on her iPad and then do the process again with all her own stuff.  Simple really.
    Good luck.

  • I can not synchronize my new ipad air with iTunes.

    Though I connected the ipad air with my apple computer wih a cable, I received the error message again and again.

  • How can I get my new iPad Air to steam Netflix in HD?

    When I turn on movie titled "example short 23.976" on Netflix app, it shows that it streams in about 500 kps. But when I stream the same film on my older iPad 3, it shows that it streams 4300 kps. I have comcast internet.
    Do you know a fix for this issue?

    Tom, thanks for your quick reply. I'm a commerical photographer using Canon 5D mk2's mostly and have in the past just downloaded images to a mac book for backup. I really liked the compact size of the Ipad and just got the retina model with the camera connection kit and seem to be hearing that CF readers can't be used with it b/c they draw too much power. Seems like I remember reading I could use a cord that might have come with my cameras to download directly to the Ipad. I haven't tried it yet as I can't find the connection but then you just said it can't be done? 
       I'm COMPLETLY lost as to your "first pluging in a flash drive to my computer, advice. Do you mean Ipad when you say computer?  "then put your movie/photo files into the folder." HOW????????
         Then plug it into the Ipad??????     TOTALLY lost.
    Also your saying just "do a google search for a reader doesn't work b/c NONE are able to work with the newer Ipads b/c they use TOO much power or so everyone says everyone that have tried.
       Hope you can help a little more b/c I'm really getting frustrated with all the conflicting advice!
    Thanks, Dennis  [email protected]

  • I can't activate my new iPad mini, 'activation server cannot be reached'

    Hello guys,
    I am trying to activate my brand new iPad mini, I have fully charged it up, languge, country, wi fi but it stats that the 'activation server cannot be reached and to try again in a few minutes'.
    Only I have tried and tried now to activate to no avail and also tried to activate through iTunes which has also failed
    on and off has also not worked unfortunately
    many thanks for any help

    Apple's download AND activation servers are being stressed today with all the downloads/activations. It might be best to wait and try later.

  • How can I backup my new iPad Air to my old PowerMac G5

    I'd like to backup my new iPad to my PowerMac G5 running under Leopard.
    However, the latest iTunes version compatible with Leopard is iTunes 10.6.3 which seems not to recognize the iPad: No device shows in the Devices pane of iTunes Preferences window ...
    I've read here and there that the minimum Mac requirements are Snow Leopard / Intel and iTune 11.
    Is there a 3rd party app that could help and that would not relie on iTunes.
    Thanks

    Use iCloud to backup the iPad. Many users don't use their iPads with iTunes at all anymore. Personally, I would never rely only on iCloud, but I would guess that millions of iOS users are now using only iCloud and not backing up with iTunes at all.

    You may have to do this several times.
    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 canceling 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.
