Disabled ipad  and password issues after ios7 upgrade

I upgraded my iPad mini and all seemed well so I upgraded my iPhone 4s and my iTouch 5.
It asked me for a Passpwrd to restore and I never used a password for my backups or on my iPhone.  I tried 0000 and 1234 as well as every PW combo I ever used--nada.  I finally had to set the phone up as a new device.
Later I tried to access my iPad Mini and when I put in the PW I just set, it refused it and finally disabled the iPad.  I had to go into restore and when I did the backup file would not accept my PW.
This is a nightmare.  I lost valuable info not to mention the amount of time to rearrange my iPhone and iPad.  I  habe my backup but cannot access it because it will not accpet the PW
The really stupid thing is that trying too many PWs disabled the iPad and I suppose that is to make it a brick if you steal it but I was able to force a restore  by shutting down and  holding down the home button when I plugged it in so if I had stolen it it would not make any sense at all

I was experiencing the same thing.  This article worked for me, hopefully it will help you.

Hold both the home button and the wake/suspend button down at the same time. You should see the Apple logo appear on your screen after holding these buttons down a couple of seconds, which means your iPad is booting up and should be good to go in a few more seconds.

  • IPad2 charging issues after iOS7 upgrade

    I recently upgraded iOS7 in my iPad 2, after the upgrade I find that the charging time has increased greatly!  Not sure if this was due to using the iPad while charging. Yesterday left iPad2 for charging all through the night and more (12-14 hrs) only to find this has charged only 3%. The charging issues seems to have degraded over time. I had atleast charged fully (100%) once after iOS7 upgrade-which also took a lot time than iOS6.
    All the charging I did was over wall Unit, with original chargers. I see from forums that this seems to be experienced by few more users. Anyone found any solution to this problem?
    I have tried resetting, switching off the iPad 2 while charging with no success. I'm now regretting having upgraded to iOS7- which I liked. This is not what I expected from Apple.

    I also have a Mac Air 2012, tried charging from Mac Air and it's now charging! Mac Air is now charging from the same wall unit location which I used for iPad 2 - so nothing wrong with the wall unit. 
    I just wish i could charge as fast from wall unit as with iOS 6.  Any further guidance is greatly appreciated.

    Is anyone else having speakerphone issues after upgrading to iOS7?  I have a iP4 and when  used normally, transmit audio is normal.  When switching to speakerphone, transmit audio in non-existent and person on other end cannot hear me.  Thoughts?

  • IPad won't start after iOS7 upgrade and reset

    Hi,
    I have just tried to upgrade to iOS7 through WiFi. No luck. So I upgraded via iTunes. When it finally was finished, I tried to turn on my iPad, but it wouldn't. It gets stuck at the Apple logo with a loading bar just under it. I did a full reset on iTunes and I can only get to the loading bar (which won't load).. Any suggestions?

  • [Solved]Dell XPS13 ultrabook Xorg and Wifi issues after Kernel upgrade

    I installed Arch on a Dell XPS 13 Ultrabook today, and most everything ran fine after I ran the initial upgrade -- but I held back on the kernel update from 3.1.3 to 3.3.7.
    I just now updated the kernel, and now I can't start X, nor can I access the wireless card. For X, I get a "Fatal server error: no screens found" error, and I can no longer find wlan0 with iwconfig, although I can still see it with lspci.
    I even tried downgrading the kernel to 3.1.9, but I'm still having identical issues.
    What can I do to fix this, short of starting again from scratch?

    Edit: Solved by copying all the files in the boot folder on my root partition (sda3) to my real boot partition (sda1).

    Thanks

    The app may not be iOS6 compatible. Have you tried to reset it? HOld down the sleep and home keys, past when you see the red slider, and unitl you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and see if that helps. If it doesn't, then I'd contact Kindle and see when they're going to update their app or if they even know there's an issue. Unfortunately, the burden is on app developers to be compatible with the operating system, not on the OS to be compatible with millions of apps. So it's up to them.

    Apple Mail client no longer marks my mail as read on all my iOS devices. If I read a email on my iPhone and later open Mail on my iPad, the iPad still shows the email as unread.This changed recently, perhaps after iOS7 upgrade. Did I miss a setting? All mail account are IMA. iCloud is set to push, business mail is set to fetch every 15 minutes.

    Read thier own support document on the subject then
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1795
    This document was written as an answer to all those who complained about it as paying MobileMe users
    They ignored us then and when MobileMe became iCloud they ignored us again, and just carried on with a system that will not update the e-mail read status across all devices
    That's how it works,   and like you 1000's of loyal Apple users cant believe it either but there you go

    Ipad mini, after ios7 upgrade if turn off the mobile data, my carrier gets turned off and wifi doesnt work at all. Its slow and app store crashes everytime. Help me to gowngrade to ios6. This really *****.

    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    Then restart your iPad.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, then swipe the slider to power off.
    Then press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

  • Lenovo G560 - Issue with won't boot and black screen after HDD upgrade

    Lenovo G560 - Issue with won't boot and black screen after HDD upgrade.
     What happen: My laptop was working fine, no blue screen issue, no funny business at all. I bought a new SSD Intel 120 GB and thought it would be a good idea to replace the HDD. I shutdown and disconnected the power adapter, waited a couple of minutes and removed the battery. I opened up the back case and replaced the HDD. And put all the screws back and put the battery back in.
    Problem: The very first time I turned the power on, nothing happens besides a black screen. I pressed the dvd drive it works and opens up and closes. I waited for about 30 mins and still has blac screen. When I mean black screen, no bios menu, no logo, just a black screen with the fan sound on.
    I have tried these:
    1. Unplugged everything - battery, adapter, and pressed the power on button for about 60 seconds, nothing, the laptop turns on with the LED display on for both on and battery LED's. But nothing but black screen, no sound of windows loading just the fan and black screen.
    2. I tried putting back my old 2.5" and nothing but black screen.
    Thoughts and suggestions?
    Solved!

    After iOS7 upgrade, iTunes only gives blank screens.  And Netflix won't load.  Any idea on what to do?

    Yep. I did some more poking around and found that one. Downloaded it and tried to run it and got more errors. Did some more searching and found a fix for the installer on Vista. Ran the fix and tried the ipod software again. It got further, but then hung up again. I'm still trying to figure this all out. Anyone got any answers it'd be much appreciated.

  • After ios7 upgrade to my 4s, touch interface keeps freezing on me and the screen rotation feature us completely dead. Any ideas?

    After ios7 upgrade to my 4s, touch interface keeps freezing on me and the screen rotation feature us completely dead. Any ideas?

    You can try resetting your iPhone 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.

  • Ipad2 crashes multiple times a day after ios7 upgrade.

    Ipad2 crashes multiple times a day after ios7 upgrade. This does not seem to be an app specific problem and has happened with Safari, other browsers, games, books, etc. The screen freezes and then the app closes to the reveal the desktop. I use the ipad exclusively in landscape. I have purged memory several times and tried re installation. I never had a problem with the device prior to the upgrade. Any suggestions or solutions? Many thanks.

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...

    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.
