You may have to do this several times.
Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. 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 canceling 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.
Cheers, Tom

im locked out of itunes because i need to put my passcode in but my display screen is broken. i dont know how to fix it because im tying to back up my old iphone but i cant without putting in my passcode.
If you have synced the device on a computer in the past, you can back it up without the passcode. If you have not synced/backed up the device before, then you are out of luck. No way to back it up or sync it without the passcode.

My Ipad2 has a message: Ipad disabled connect to itunes. The trouble is I am out of the US now and cant connect to my my home mac or any computer it is synced with. What can I do? I cant even access the serial number to contact apple. Help!
Call Apple anyway. If the device was ever registered with then they will have the serial # on file and can look you up by other info such as your name or phone number.
To re-enable an iPad any computer with iTunes should work. However, if your data was not backed up to iCloud you will not be able to access it until you get back to your home computer. -
I HAVE TRIED TO CONNECT TO ITUNES TO RESET AS I CAN'T REMEMBER MY PASSWORD. I PURCHASED THIS IPAD FROM EB GAMES STORE IT IS RECONDITIONED SO I DON'T KNOW IF THAT WOULD HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH WHY I CAN'T CONNECT TO ITUNES
If it is your password on your appleID account then click on the link to reset your password.
If it is your four digit passcode then See here - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
You will have to go down the route of a Restore. Please read carefully the links therein with regard to using a different different computer from that with which you normally sync.
[You may also have to put your device into Recovery Mode - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 ] -
I have tried signing into my apple id on my ipad mini and says it cant connect to itunes store
Hey,
i have tried to sign in to my apple id on my ipad mini and it says it cant connect to itunes storeThere is a difference between not being able to sign into your Apple ID and not being able to connect to the iTunes Store. You can be signed into your ID and still not be able to connect to the store.
I will assume that you are actually signed in - Settings> iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. That's one place where you sign into your ID.
If you can't connect to the iTunes Store....

TS1368 my ipad has a message " ipad is disabled" connect to itunes but I cant connect to itunes
I have an Ipad and my 3 yr old pushed the password so many times and now it has a message on it Ipad is disabled connect to itunes but I cant connect to Itunes because my Ipad has never been connected to my computer. Is there anything I can do without loosing my pictures.
First try to recover your original password.ID so you can redownload iTunes purchases
iTunes Store: Retrieving and changing passwords (Apple ID)
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
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 iTunes purchases by:

IPad disabled, connect to iTunes message
I have a message "iPad disabled", "connect to iTunes". I have installed itunes in my laptop and tried to restore. The iTunes gives a message "Downloading 1 Item, IPad Software Update (x hours remaining)" and after some time say 30 to 40 % downloading iTune stops
If you regularly sync with iTunes or backup with iCloud you should be able to restore from a backup and then sync with iTunes to recover all of your apps and other purchased content. If you don't sync, or have never synced with iTunes, you will basically have to start all over again and download all of your content again.
If you have no backup, you are going to lose all of your app data and you will lose the photos in the camera roll.
This is my boilerplate response when someone is locked out of their iPad due to a forgotten Passcode.
You have to restore the device within iTunes. You want to use the same computer that you always sync with so that you can restore your app data and settings. You can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the iPad.
Instructions can be found here.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
You will probably need to restore using Recovery Mode. You can read about it here.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4097
Or you can follow this.
Recovery Mode Instructions
Disconnect the USB cable from the iPad, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off iPad: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for iPad to turn off.
If you cannot turn off iPad using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the iPad turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to iPad. When you reconnect the USB cable, iPad should power on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the recovery mode alert that iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode.
