If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode or Just Need to Restore Your Device
1. iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
2. iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
3. iOS- Understanding passcodes
     If you have forgotten your Restrictions code, then follow the instructions
     below but DO NOT restore any previous backup. If you do then you will
     simply be restoring the old Restrictions code you have forgotten. This
     same warning applies if you need to restore a clean system.
A Complete Guide to Restore or Recover Your iDevice (if You Forget Your Passcode)
If you need to restore your device or ff you cannot remember the passcode, then you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync 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. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
Follow these steps to restore your device:
     1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
     2. Connect your device to your computer.
     3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
     4. Select the Summary tab.
     5. Select the Restore option.
     6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
         option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
         necessary to create another.
     7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
         you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
     8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
         logo while starting up:
           After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
          to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
          iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
          you see "iPhone is activated."
     9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup. If you do not have a
          backup to restore, then restore as New.
If you are restoring to fix a forgotten Restrictions Code or as a New device, then skip Step 9 and restore as New.

I was wondering if you ever figured this out. I have the same issue. When I try to use the support communities, there are so many with the same problems and never seem to be any replys?? Not very helpful and I can not get Apple to return my emails.

Easiest way to update my IPAD 1 to iOS 5.1.1

Easiest way to upgrade IPAD 1 to Ios 5.1.1

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect to your computer & click on the "Update your device using iTunes".
Tip - You may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. After you update to iOS 5.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

‘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.

Any way to unlock an iPad with severly broken touch screen

My boss left his iPad 3 on the roof of his car. We located it through iCloud (he has one with an AT&T data plan) and recovered it. It is severly damaaged but the backlight does come on and it does connect to iTunes. We've already used iCloud to transfer his account to a new iPad, but he has 12GB of pics that are still on the device. Unfortunately when it was first lost I the iPad in Lost mode through iCloud. I took some sheets of paper and used another ipad to make a template of where the slide to unlock was located and the keypad to enter our passcode. I don't think the digitizer is working at all as I'm entering the passcode but it is not unlocking and thus I can't get it to back up in iTunes until it is unlocked. Is there any other way to enter the passcode other than the iPad screen?
gedb

Still can't unlock the device, but after putting it on a charger for awhile and then reconnecting to my PC, the DCIM folder contianing the pics is showing up through Windows Explorer. I'm just going to pull the pictures off that way. That pictures were the only items I couldn't get through the iCloud back up.

What is the easiest way to upgrade 100 Ipads to IOS5.

Got 100 brand new Ipads, want to upgrade them all to IOS 5. Right now I'm having to register every one, naming them all like they should be, and then manually upgrading each one. Please tell me there is an easier way. I see Lion Server lets you manage them, but I'm not sure if that would include upgrading. Probably in the next 6 months, we're going to be responsible for another 100-200, so I'd like to have something in place. I've used the Iphone Config Utility to setup the wireless and make a few changes, but nothing really big. Would a MDM be able to upgrade them? Is Lion Server an actual MDM?
Thanks for any help.

This says that you can update IOS. Gonna play with it later.

What is the easiest way to sync multiple ipads to one computer

Is it possible to (easily) sync multiple (10) Ipads to one computer? My hope is to have all ten sales reps in the field, with the same info on their ipads.

I wouldn't say that it is easily done, but it can be done, the reason I don't say easily is because it has to be done individually one at a time. And I assume that you are talking about all ten having the same apps?

What is the easiest way to sync two ipads?

I just received a newer ipad. how do I migrate the apps and data from old model?

Sync (and make sure to let it fully back up) the old one. Connect the new one to iTunes (I recommend a cable rather than wireless sync - first one will take a while if you have lots of songs, movies, etc) and instead of "set up as new device" select "restore from backup" and use the back-up from your original iPad.

When I want to Use my Ipad I first have to unlock with a password (4 numbers), BUT " I forgot this password" and now it is TOTALLY blocked. How can I unblock it ? I want to use it offcourse ? Please let me know... thank you

If you've forgotten the passcode then you will need to connect the iPad to the computer that you normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the iPad and re-sync your content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the iPad into recovery mode in order to be able to reset it : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If you do it via a different computer then :
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.
