Downloaded ios 7 and now password needed

Just downloaded ios 7 and went to use my ipad. It is now password protected which is wasn't before and I have know idea what to do. Says Ipad disabled and can't access anything!

You do not need to unlock the iPad to put it in Recovery Mode.
Here is how to put the device in Recovery Mode:
Connect iPad to your computer via USB while it's turned on.
Open iTunes
Hold the iPad's Sleep/Wake switch (power button on the top of the iPad) down until the "power off" slider appears.
Power off the iPad completely (wait for the progress spinner to disappear).
Hold the Sleep/Wake switch AND the Home button down for a full 10 seconds.
After 10 seconds (the second time you'll see the Apple logo on the screen) release the Sleep/Wake switch while still holding the Home button.
Continue to hold the Home button for another 10 seconds until the USB connection image appears on the iPad's screen, then release the Home button.
A pop-up message will appear on iTunes saying it has detected an iPad in recovery mode, you must restore...
Click on the "Restore" button and the process will begin.

    I downloaded ios 7, and now i need to accept something in the app-store, but i can't accept it, and now i can't download a thing from the appstore anymore, someone knows how to fix it?

    Why can't it be accepted?
    What is "it"?
    If help is desired, stop being vague.

    Hello, Robke100.
    I would recommend trying the steps in the article below.
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Once these steps are processed, attempt to accept the terms and conditions.
    Also, you can make a purchase via the iTunes Store on the computer.  This should allow you to bypass accepting the terms and conditions on the device.
    Cheers,

    I've got to agree with Allan. It sounds like the hard drive is corrupt at least. It's possible it might be physically failing. Without backups, it's possible your data is already gone. You need a professional to help you.
    If you do not have an Apple Store near you or simply don't have the time to spare, there are some things you can try, but you must understand that it's possible these things could make the chances of recovering your data worse than they already are. Perform the instructions to follow at your own risk!
    First, you can try repairing your hard drive with Disk Utility. If that works, see if you can start up the machine. If you can, the very first thing you need to do is back up any data you don't want to lose. You may still need to take other steps, as your system may be damaged as well, but getting the data is the important part.
    If Disk Utility cannot repair the problems, you can try DiskWarrior. It can repair problems that Disk Utility cannot. However, it also increases the risk of destroying your data if it fails. If it works and you can start up the machine, do the same as I advised for following success with Disk Utility.
    If repairs (with either) were successful, but the machine still won't start up, you can try reinstalling the system. Hold down command-R at startup and then just install right on top of the existing system. If all goes well, you'll be able to start up afterwards and can get your data backed up. If all goes badly, it'll further decrease the chances of getting your data back.
    If neither can repair the damage, you're in bad shape. You will need a professional to help you, unless you are willing to lose all your data.

  • I downloaded IOS 5 and now all of my apps are gone, how can I get them back?

    I downloaded IOS 5 and now all of my apps are gone, how can I get them back?

    You can get iTunes purchases back by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    For other items you need to get them from whee yuo got them the first time.
    The iPod backup that iTunes makes does not include synced mediai like apps and music. If those ore not in the iTunes library on the computer on which you performed the update they are lost.

  • I downloaded iOS 6 and now my iTouch has gone to ****.

    As said, I downloaded iOS 6, and now my apple store crashes constantly, and I can't sync my music.  I can't add music either.
    My dad has a iPhone 4S, and he downloaded it. Everything is fine on his end.
    Is this just me???

    My touch is exactly the same, it wont sync new songs via a cable or over wifi. It wont connect to itunes and the pc cannot find it ever since I installed ios6. Absolute trash

  • I downloaded iOS 7 and now my notes won't sync with iCloud

    I downloaded iOS 7 and now my notes won't sync with iCloud.  Also, all of my notes on iCloud aren't on my phone anymore, but they are still on my computer. Can somebody please advise how to fix this issue?  Thank you!

    Sounds like they are being overwritten by the server as soon as you reconnect.  With some effort you may be able to prevent this and recover your notes if you try the steps in Winston Churchill's post here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/22600445#22600445.

    Hello there, Mark2s.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers some great steps for troubleshooting your issue with charging your phone:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1476
    Particularly:
    If your battery doesn't charge, or if your device shows a low-battery image, black screen, or "accessory not supported" alert, follow these steps.
    Inspect the connector at the bottom of the phone:
    Make sure that there are no bent pins in the connector.
    Make sure that the connector is free from debris.
    If there are bent pins or debris, please contact Apple Support.
    Otherwise, continue troubleshooting.
    Make sure that the outlet you're using works.
    Make sure that the Apple USB cable and Apple USB power adapter work.
    Plug the device in to power and let it charge for up to 30 minutes. If you don't have an Apple USB power adapter, try connecting to a computer's high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be on.
    If the device still exhibits an issue, try turning your device off and then on again while connected to power.
    If the issue is persists, please contact Apple Support.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • I downloaded IOS 6 and now it won't remember names and passwords

    I recently downloaded IOS 6 for IPhone 4 and now it won't remember names and passwords for websites I frequently visit. It used to remember prior to the download. Any suggestions?

    You could unplug your router than plug it back in.  You could turn the iPhone completely off and then back on.

  • HT4623 Downloaded iOS 5 and now my iPad apps flash but don't load when I click on them.

    Downloaded iOS  5  to my iPad and none of my apps don't work except FB and Internet.

    That did it, Oxy. Thank you so much for the fast reply! Just a quick question if you return to this thread: Is that a new feature or something I didn't notice before that mistakenly got selected?
    I'll browse through the options to see if there is anything else new.
