How to enter password to unlock iPad after finding it

I lost my iPad and used Find My IPhone app to lock it. I found it and can't figure out how to use the password to unlock access to the internet

I used the app "find my iPhone" to lock the iPad. It prompted me to enter a passcode that could be used to unlock the device. I had never used this app before and don't know what it did. My iPad was probably not charged when I did this. After I found it and recharged it, it did not prompt for the passcode, which is what I expected. However it doesn't let me on the Internet.

I need to know how to reset a business owned iPad after the employee that set it up has been terminated and will not divulge his password info

I have an iPad 2 that we need to restore to factory settings. The employee for which it was issued was terminated and no longer has the username or password that the iPad and Find My iPhone was established with.
I have put it into recovery mode 2x...it still prompts for the user name and password of the person that set it up.
What do you suggest.

Just had an employee terminated most acrimoniously and had an iPhone 5C that was a brick. Apple support can help remove the lock. Better hold onto your original receipt and record the Serial# ! I do not mean the MEID or IMEI but the Serial# found on the original box or Settings>General>About. In my case no receipt or Serial#. 2 hours on the phone between Apple and Verizon and got what was needed. Submitted form and got reply to allow 2-10 business days.
Here is the form I had to complete and sent to [email protected]..

Try a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider if that appears. See if that clears the glitch.

How to reset password on an ipad. I can't access the settings the iPad is locked

How to reset password on an ipad. I can't access the settings the iPad is locked.

If you are talking about the restrictions Passcode - there is no way to reset it. You have to restore the decide to factory settings. If you restore from a backup, and the Passcode is in the backup, that will not work since you will be restoring the Passcode that you cannot remember back onto the device.
The only thing that would work is if your backup was created before you put the Passcode on the iPad. The Passcode would not be in that backup and you could restore from that one.

Enter password to unlock disk not working

I have an external disk that I used for Time Machine, originally under Mavericks on my MBP. I then upgraded to Yosemite and was having issues with the upgrade route and so did a fresh install of Yosemite on my MBP at the advice of AppleCare reps. That corrected the problems with my MBP, however, now I can no longer use my external drive. Once connected I get the dialog box requesting the password to unlock it. I entered my previous login password, my alternate password, new one and just about every password I would typically use (and a lot of their variations) all to no avail.
It is absolutely imperative that I get the data off this drive as I have files that are irreplaceable on it. I have tried going through terminal and recovery mode and using what I thought was the recovery key but to no avail. It's not in my keychain and if it were, well it's on the external drive locked away.
There was an article detailing allowing users to be able to decrypt the drive. Is it because of the fresh install and my account is not allowed why this no longer works?
Is there something else I can try?
Anyone else have a similar situation and solution?
Many thanks in advance.

Just try a Restore with iTunes.

Restoring the backup file but asked to enter password to unlock

It asked if I wanted to use the older backup to backup the file but it prompt to Enter the password to unlock your iPad backup file. I tried all password that I used but it does not accept.

it is asking for your administrator password on the computer as the back up file is encrypted by the compputer.

How to enter password for IMAP mail account

After re-setting keychain I can't get some of my email accounts back online.
The main iCloud account is okay, it simply requested password and re-appeared in the Mail application.
However, I have a second email account with Apple that dates back to pre .Mac days and it's no longer online.
When I open Accounts, there's no longer a window for entering password. I know there used to be one here, and there still is for Exchange or Google accounts. How do I get the other IMAP accounts back online?
thanks,

just found out that clicking on the little 'flash' symbol within email app brings up question box for password.
still doesn't explain why password box is no longer in accounts, but i suppose that's 'progress' with apple.

HT204150 How to enter contacts in my iPad email program

How do I enter contacts in my iPad email program?

Welcome to the Apple community.
I'm not entirely sure what you are asking here. You do not enter up contacts via the email program, but rather through your contacts app.
When drafting an email, you can add contacts to the "to" field, simply by starting to type their name, the device should then list the match contacts for you to choose from.
You can create a new contact from the sender of an email, simply by tapping on their name in the "from" field.

I can log on icloud on pc but when i enter password on my ipad mini first gen with ios8 it tells me wrong password. and i can receive mail but cannot send any mail via icloud, gmail, yahoo never had to set this up with ios7. how do i resolve this?

I updated my ipad mini first gen 32gig (4.3gig free) to run ios8 8.0(12A365) and i have a problem sending emails. i can receive mail but when i send it fails. my dropbox works fine, safari, and other apps work fine on the internet just the receiving of mail. Do i need to add a new outgoing server, though i dont remeber having to do this when i updated to ios7. how do i resolve this?

Here's a troubleshooting article from Apple: iOS: Troubleshooting Mail
It doesn't seem to cover your specific issue, but have you tried using a different network (either a different wi-fi network, or switching from wi-fi to cellular or vice-versa if you have a wi-fi+cellular iPad)?
For GMail, iCloud and Yahoo, copies of messages are stored on their respective servers, so you could try deleting the account on your iPad, then re-adding each account one at a time to see if that resolves the issue.

I have changed my password and it is verified on my desktop computer but will not accept any password on my ipad after updates
