How to unlock my ipad2

how to unlock my ipad 2

If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync 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.
You may have to force iPad into Recovery Mode

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school enviroment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘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.

    how do I unlock my ipad2 (it is disabled) without using itunes

    You can't.
    Take it to an Apple Store as an alternative. Be sure to carry proof that it is indeed yours and not pilfered from someone.

  • My ipad2 get locked showing box as iCloud Backup; This ipad hasn't been backed up in 2 weeks. Backups happenwhen this ipad is plugged in, locked, and connected to wi-fi please anybody can suggest how to unlock it

    My ipad locked showing a box as "iCloudBackup: This ipad has not been backedup in 2 weeks. Backup happen when this ipad is pluggedin, locked, and connected to wi-fi" It was not unlocked even hi-fi connection available
    Please anybody suggest me how to unlock it.

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • HT1212 How to unlock my iPad 2 after I forget the password?

    How do I unlock my iPad2 if i forgot my password?

    i had this problem with my ipod touch 4g and unfortunately i cant be unlocked. you have to go to the laptop/ computer you set your ipad up with and plug it in and go to the part where it says the name of your ipad and and everythng and go to the bottom and click reset. it may take a while but about an hour at most. so then all your apps and photos and everything will be wiped out but you can always go back to your pc and put the music/videos back on but not everything else,sadly, so just reset it and it will look brand new. i hope i helped.

  • I wanted to know how to unlock my iphone, since I had to restore it and when it restarted, it appeared this message: "The SIM card que you currently have installed in this iphone is from a carrier that is not supported under the Currently actuvation polic

    I wanted to know how to unlock my iphone, since I had to restore it and when it restarted, it appeared this message: "The SIM card que you currently have installed in this iphone is from a carrier that is not supported under the Currently actuvation policy that is assigned by the server activion. this is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request que this iphone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information. "
    I need help, I use my phone for everything enclusive to work. I appreciate if you can help. I'm from Brazil. My name and giullia.

    Did you purchase this device from Apple or an authorized reseller? It sounds as if you had a device that was jailbroken/hacked to operate on your carrier. Upon updating the iOS, it is now locked back to the original carrier the device was locked to.
    Only the carrier the device is locked to can authorize an unlock. You will need to make contact with that carrier and see if they provide unlocking services, and if they do, if you qualify for an unlock. Otherwise, you are out of luck. One that carrier can take care of the unlocking.
