That means your iPad is in recovery mode.  Plug the usb cable into your computer and turn the iPad on.  iTunes should lead you through the recovery process.

  • While downloading software update for Itunes, getting message saying detecting Ipad in recovery mode and telling us to restore Ipad to original settings, which we don't want to do.  Also cannot turn on Ipad; shows Itunes symbol with connector.  Help!

    No promises but a System Reset is worth trying:
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.
    A System Reset does not remove any apps, music, movies, etc. nor does it cause any settings to revert back to default.
    Also, you might wish to download the iPad-2 User Guide.  Pay special attention to page 162.  Note that this Guide also applies to the iPad-1 with IOS 4.3 except for those functions that are not supported by the hardware.

    Finally, the User Guide can be downloaded at no charge via iBooks and a less comprehensive version of the Guide is included as a Safari bookmark.

  • I have just downloaded iOS update but this has locked my iPad screen. Screen shows iTunes symbol with white arrow and padlock below it. I have tried to reboot but I am unable to unlock screen. Can anyone help with this please.

    I have downloaded an iOS update on my iPad air2 but it has locked the screen and I can only see the iTunes symbol with a white arrow and a padlock below it. I have tried turning the iPad off and on but the same screen reappears. Has anyone had a similar problem?

    What that symbol indicates is that your iPad has gone into recovery mode and now it needs to be restored in order for you to be able to use it again. You can reboot from now until the cows come home and it will not do any good.
    You do indeed need to plug your iPad into your computer and use iTunes to restore the device.

    Just in case you need to use recovery mode.....

    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Source list, and then click Restore.

    Since updating my Apple TV, all that will show up is the iTunes symbol and a cord. What do I do next?

    When I updated via iTunes, it told me to reconnect to my TV, and I got that screen. I gave it a few minutes, and did a force reset (down+menu on remote). Activation took a long time for me, but it eventually came back up.
