My son has locked hiads ipad from too many attempts at the passcode. We have tried to restore it back to factory settings but it is now asking to turn off "find my Ipad" in Icloud but the problem is we cant get into the ipad to do this. any ideas??

Force iPad into Recovery Mode (Step by Step)
1. Hold Sleep/Wake button down and slide to turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTune (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port. Do not release button until you see picture of iTune and plug.
5. Release Home button.
On Computer
6. iTune has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTune.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...

  • HT201252 How do I restore my iPhone when I can't turn off find my iPhone

    My phone 6+ has completely frozen out.  It will turn on but there is a flicker at the top of the screen and no screen touching works.  So I can't get past the security screen.  No water damage, no magnet, not even dropped.  It just stopped working one day.
    I've tried to restore factory settings via iTunes, but it says that I have to turn off 'find my iPhone' first, which involves turning on the phone to do so, which the phone won't let me do!
    How do I restore my factory settings?

    If it is powering up, and assuming it then connects to your wireless or wifi network, you can log into your iCloud account in a computer browser and remove it from your listed devices there.

    You have to wipe your iPad, and restore as new. Everything you had on there is now gone, unless you had it elsewhere.

    If you have a lock code, how did someone change the apple ID for "find my phone?"   You should go by the apple store and let them help you.

  • How can I turn off find my iPhone to restore when it won't let me into my phone settings.

    I went to use my phone last night and suddenly it says activation is required (which I'm not sure I understand alone) but I began to go through the steps and it says it can not activate because the beta has expired and I need to do a system restore. So I proceeded to do the system restore by plugging into iTunes and it tells me it  cannot do a restore unless I turn off find my iPhone but my phone will not allow me to look at any settings other than my wifi settings in its current state. How can I turn this off to proceed and what is going on with my phone in general?

    Force it into recovery mode to restore it as explained here: If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.  Sometimes you have to do this more than once to be successful.  After restoring, you'll have to restore an existing backup, if you have one.
