I received an iPad for Christmas that was ex-display, however I am unable to restore it to factory settings using the iTunes restore......any suggestions??
If it's a store's demo model then as far as I know only Apple can potentially change it's iOS version to a non-demo version - you've tried Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content And Settings directly on the iPad ?

I want to cut out a head from a photo and insert it into another photo again. In the head hair flying in the wind and the blue sky can be seen between the hairs. This blue sky I want to remove, so I can only use the head with hair flying in another photo. Is it possible to simply delete this blue color of the sky?
Make your selection and then use Refine Edge.

I have an ipod touch that i would like to restore to factory settings. Having said that the ipod is locked for over 1,000 minutes and i do not know the password. I know the trick of holding down the lock button and home button at the same time until the "Connect to iTunes" message pops up, but the lock button on my ipod does not work. Is there anything i could do? I really could use some help im very stuck!
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

Or try using this program to place the iPod in recovery mode

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store -
ITunes says "iTunes could not read the information on this ipod, please click restore to restore it to it's factory settings" every time that I connect my brand-new iTouch to the computer.
The iTunes is for Windows, and is up-to date (version 10.7), and the iTouch is 4th generation.
Clicking "restore iTouch" does not help.
ITunes does not identify any available updates.
This same problem has occurred with different ipods synching to this same computer.
What should I do?
Thank you very much.I was listening to my ipod through my friends
computer with itunes and then i got an error and all
the songs were taken off my ipod. when i got home i
tried to put them back but it said that i have to
restore my ipod to factory settings. So i downloaded
the ipod updater thing but when i run it i get an
error ( error number: 0x80040707 ) and then it says
access is denied and closes. Anyone know what to do
now? Ive reinstalled everything and tried anything
else i can think of. Anyone know how to fix this?
i also lost all of my songs and i am wondering if there is anything i can do? have you had any luck since you restored it to the factory settings? if you have heard anything or if anyone else knows how to get my songs back...i havent messed with or shutdown the computer since it happened, so i was wondering if my music could be in some remote file somewhere? thanks. -
iPod first stopped updating/downloading apps, then shut down completely. Finally got around to plugging it into our home Mac and restoring it, which all seemed to go fine. However the screen is still unresponsive, I have tried turning it off and on again etc.
Thank you for the speedy reply! I suspected it to be a hardware fault but found a lot of people online had experienced the same problem. What should I do? Obviously it is well out of warranty and the battery is literally brand new. Seems a sad waste if it cannot be repaired. I've yet to find a definitive answer or what to do, be it contact Apple etc....
Again, many thanks for taking the time to help. :-) -
I'm using my iPad with iOS 6.1.3. Is there a security patch for this version, or do I have to update to iOS 7.0.6?
There is an update for iOS 6... v6.1.6. But it is only available to iPhone 3GS and iPod touch 4th gen users. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6146?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
For iPad, the highest supported os for iOS 6 is v6.1.3. If you want to get the security patch, you'll have to go to iOS 7.0.6.
Hope this answers your question.

You have an outstanding balance in your account. You have to add a payment method to satisfy that balance before you can do anything with the account including purchasing free updates and free apps.

I received this message: "itunes cannot sync apps to the iPad because the apps installed on the ipad could not be detected" when trying to sync my ipad via usb with my windows PC - after the iPad applications failed to update when I selected 'Update All' in IOS6.
Disconnect and restart the computer and reset the iPad:
Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the iPad shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, turn the iPad back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset. -
I have ipad with IOS 7, Some apps doesn' t work, safari not open some web site. What can I do?
I have ipad with IOS 7, Some apps doesn' t work, safari not open some web site. What can I do?
Try this and see if it helps.
Settings>Safari>Clear cookies and data.
Now close Safari completely. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then "swipe up" or "drag up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up. -
Help updated my ipad with IOS 7.0.4. It asks me what language, chooses my wi-fi and then asks.........1 - set up as a new ipad, 2 - restore from iclouds or 3 - restore from itunes but won't restore as not enough memory! What do I do now?
I don't want to lose all my pics, songs etc
Whats my next move as I CANNOT use the ipas at the moment!!!!!!!!Your iPhone's iOS must be same or newer than the one in backups. In your case it is older so you need to update your iPhone and then recover it with backup.

Thank you wjsten for your soon reply. Unfortunately on these days I'm in a country that Apple don't have any retail store here and for sake of time I prefer to fix it myself to DHL it to the nearest country to use its warranty. Do you have any idea how can I fix it? Do you think it's a software issue?
