Hi i did the steps for restor my locked ipad (whech not sync befor) but after a while it says connot restore pecause it's locked? what i can do please help?

You have to force iPad into Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button.
5. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad. Data will be lost.

  • TS3367 I am currently in South Africa and have tried to FaceTime my family using my ipad to their ipad, however when I make the call, I can hear the ringing but after a while it says the other party is not available, but she is

    I am current in Sotheby's Africa and trying to FaceTime my daughter who also has the same ipad as me. My son in law also has the ipad. Despite using my daughters email, I cannot get through to her or my son in law. When I hit FaceTime I can hear the ringing tone, but after a while it comes up saying my daughter is not available, but she is sat by her ipad in the UK. I have checked everything is working so what can I do now to get through to her, especially for Xmas day.

  • I've unchecked the boxes for apple e-mails (news and iTunes offers) but I still get marketing info which I don't want. What else can I do to stop the spam?

    I've unchecked the boxes for apple e-mails (news and iTunes offers) after following the link at the bottom of a marketing e-mail from Apple.
    Unfortunately I still get marketing info which I don't want. What else can I do to stop the spam?

    The e-mail checks out as having come from an IP address registered to Apple.
    Received-SPF: pass (mxeu0: domain of insideapple.apple.com designates 17.254.6.124 as permitted sender) client-ip=17.254.6.124; envelope-from=[email protected]; helo=msbadger0204.apple.com;
    The sender address wasn't spoofed and all the links in the mail lead to legitimate apple web sites. (It was an advert for a MacBook Air christmas special). There was a link at the bottom of the e-mail which takes me to the Apple 'manage your e-mails' page.
    List-Unsubscribe: <http://mynews.apple.com/subscriptions?v=2&la=de_de&.....
    On this page there are check boxes for the various Apple news and iTunes marketing e-mails, and the option to change my e-mail address. The boxes are not checked but I still get marketing e-mails.

  • What are the steps in Apple Configurator iPad restore? It appears to me that Configurator repeats steps, but it probably is that I don't know what happens and when.

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can get a clue to what it is, and potentially use it, by going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and clicking 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have, or don't want to use, your rescue email address (you won't be able to add/change it until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get them reset (which will be by phone as they need to verify your id - we are fellow users here on these forums).
    e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
    or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add/change rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 . Or you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

  • I did the recent update on my ipad 7.0.4 and now it keeps freezing up and can not use it. Tried reboot and works for a second then freezes right up again. Anyone else have this issue or know a fix?

    Madmonkey,
    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
    Gaylefromnewhope,
    Seems like you tried this all ready and it didn't help.
    Next might be to reset all settings.
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings
    Note that when you do this you will not lose data but you will have to enter all passwords again.
    If that doesn't help you might tries a restore of your iPad using iTunes on the computer you normall sync with. Do a backup and save all data first. Or
    Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

  • The post-expression for the step 'Set Station Global Models' could not be evaluated.

    When running a TestStand sequence, I get the following error message:
    The post-expression for the step 'Set Station Global Models' could not be evaluated.
    Variable or property types do not match or are not compatible.
    Error Code:  -17321; Variable or property types do not match or are not compatible.
    Although I do understand what the above is telling me, fixing the root cause is somewhat another thing.
    I'll explain the scenario.  The code is developped in TS4.1.0, although that should be irrelevant.
    I inherited a TestStand project which calls LabVIEW modules.  The original sequence works fine on the test pc (which is remotely located).  The local and remote PC's share the same StationGlobals.ini.
    Here is why it is strange..  I do get the error message on the local PC whether I use the old or the new code.  I was assuming that using the same StationGlobals.ini would have fixed that, but it didn't. 
    When I run the old code on the remote PC, I do not get that message, but I do get it with the new code.  I don't recall modifying code that affected the StationGlobals.  My goal is to fix it on both machines (at least the remote one).
    This is the expression that it does not like:
    StationGlobals.Models=Locals.Models,
    However, that very same expression exists in the original code.  The one thing that did change is the addition of a new model number in the Locals.Models.newNumber.  I suspect that this contributes to the error.  But why does it give me an error when I run the original sequence locally?  Maybe I should try running it again..
    In either case, any suggestions to overcome the error?
    Thanks.

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Please ignore post.
    I found the problem..  There was a mismatch with the number of models.  Easy fix.  It's all good.
    For someone else who might tumble onto this thread for the same reason, here's an explanation.
    I added a new model with its variants to the list of Locals.Models.  In total, there were 16 additions to the list.
    I also added these to the StationGlobals.  Which meant that my StationGlobals no longer matched the one on the remote PC. 
    Where the error came in is that there was one missing model in the StationGlobals, so the size (number of models) did not match that of the Locals. 
    Slight oversight in the sea of models that are listed (I'm not even going to count them).  Now fixed. 
    ... and embarrassed ...
    I may as well give myself an "Accepted Solution".

  • HT1414 I can not sync my iPhone after restoring it - my computer only gives me the restore (again and again and again) option.  I have no music and only a few aps now on my iPhone.  Any tips before I go to the genius bar?

    I can not sync my iPhone after restoring it - my computer only gives me the restore (again and again and again) option.  I have no music and only a few aps now on my iPhone.  Any tips before I go to the genius bar?

    If you restored as new, without using a backup, and still only get an option to restore, there is a hardware problem or the phone was previously hacked (jailbroken, downgraded iOS, unauthorized unlock).  Your only option is to take it to Apple or whoever provides iPhone service in your country.
