HT1212 How do you unlock a disabled and offline iPad? Please Help!

Last night while trying to stop my younger sibling from going through my iPad I changed both the password and the disable settings on my iPad. Not only that but I never put the password for the internet when I turned it on again after a couple of days being off. Now im in this dilema. Please help me out.
Thanks You

    Unfortunately... Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
    See Here  >  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    However... Once you have Recovered your Device...
    Re-Sync your Content or Restore from the most recent Backup...

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    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 most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

  • HT1212 How do you unlock iPhone when its disabled and will not connect o iTunes

    My iphone is locked.  Says iPhone is disabled, connect to iTunes.  But when i connect ot iTunes it does not connect.  Tells me to put in my password inwhich I cant because it is disabled.  This is an iPhone 4 that is not used as a phone but an iTouch for my daughter. No phone capapbilities.

    power your phone completely down, plug the cord into the computer but not the iphone.  Once the phone is completely powered down hold down the home button while you plug in the phone and continue to hold it down until you see the iTunes icon.  that is recovery mode.  Restore to manufacture settings.  Unless you have a back up all your info will be lost
