HT201210 my Ipad will not restore after trying to update what do I do?
I tried to update my Ipad to 6.0 . NOw I am getting an alert that was unable to restore!!! What do I do? All I was trying to do was add some music to my IPAD!!
Did you get an error #? What iOS version are you currently running?
If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.0.1. For the iPad Mini the iOS is 6.0.2. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

My iPad will not restore after an issue when synching
I have been having problems with my iPad. I have been trying to synch it and it gave problems and now appears to lost everything on it. I have connected it to iTunes and tryed to do a rstore but about half way through it says it has detected an iPad that requires a restore and then completes but does not do the reset. How do I rest the iPad to take it back as a new device and try and start again from there ?

I have tried this repeated with no success. I think my only option to take it back to a new iPad. How do I do this ?
Recovery mode does exactly that. At this point, you need to contact Apple Support 800-275-2273 in the U.S.) and get help there. -
How come my mini iPad is not working after trying to update apps?
My mini iPad is repeatedly showing me a black screen with a, "white apple," in the middle & then a couple of minutes later it turns off for a few minutes. Then the black screen with the, "white apple," in the middle comes back on again and then it goes black again. Sometimes the black screen would lighten and the whole pattern of these "screens" would start over again. It's been doing this for hours since I fell asleep.
This happened when I was trying to update 4-5 apps at the same time. It had trouble updating the, "Pinterest app." It failed once and I retried it and that's when my mini ipad started to not work. I can't use it at all. I never had trouble updating several apps at one time before. I was at home using my wifi and my wifi strength was at its maximum for the iPad.
The battery was at 40 something%, so I charged it over night. It has the latest iOS update software. I had downloaded that yesterday.
I plugged it into iTunes on my computer and the same thing is happening. It's picking up my icloud stuff like my music and videos and my computer is trying to import photos from my mini ipad automatically, but my iPad isn't fully recognizable on iTunes. I get 2 error messages. One says, "iTunes was unable to load data class information from Sync Services. Reconnect or try again later." I also get an error when trying to import photos (just to try it out). The other error message says, "The iPad cannot be sync because this iPad cannot be found."
And so, I unplugged it and plugged it back in and I get the same response. My iTunes is the latest version.
I don't have warranty on this iPad and I spent like $500 on this one. I'm kinda worried...?
Any kind of response would be appreciated....First, try a system reset although I can't give you any confidence. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
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. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. -

ITunes error - will not work after trying to update to 7.2, then to 7.3
I have tried to update to both 7.2 and to 7.3, but both updates have failed. Now I am stuck on 7.1 with an error, where my iTunes will not operate and I cannot uninstall because it comes up with the same error that I get when I try to install or uninstall.
Below are links to images of the errors:
Here is the error I have currently:

I would appreciate your assistance!It sounds as though you need this article on trouble installing iTunes:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976
You need the section at the end after "Important: A majority of customers..."
I think you need to do a full removal of iTunes and quciktime with clean up. But the important bit is to clean up the installer files with the MS Installer Clean Up Utility.
If cleanup doesn't seem to work, it is worth checking you have the right version of the Windows installer. If you find it in add remove programs, it should say "Windows Installer 3.1 (KB893803)" -
IPad will not charge after IOS 7 update unless the brightness is dimmed,..Why?
I recently updated my 4th gen IPad 64Gb to ios7. Previous to the update I loved my iPad and it worked flawlessly. Since updating the iPad now will not charge unless I dim the brightness of the screen, and slowly when it does. Why? Is there a way to remedy this?
I do not know if it's iOS7 related or not. My 2 is still working. However, my first 2 was returned to best buy after the charging port on it died. So that can happen. ANd it happens with little to no warning. CHarges monday, doesn't on tuesday.
As far as I know the issues with 'unsigned' lightning devices is just the cable, not the power brick, but there's no official word (nor do I expect one)
Lightning cables have a little chip in them and if that chip isn't signed by Apple then your device kicks up an error but should still work.
However since this is an iPad 2, that's not the case since 2's use 30 pin chargers, not lightning.
Usually when a 2 doesn't charge, common troubleshooting is to swap out the charger, cable and outlet, to confirm or rule those out. Also to do the reset. (the soft reset that's holding down the sleep and home keys until it reboots). Also to look in and blow out the port in case there's some lint or such in there.
Usually those things fixes it. If not, then it could be the port. -
HT1212 my ipad will not restore after passcode dissable
passcode dissable , connect iTunes atempt 6 failure
Locked Out, Forgot Lock or Restrictions Passcode, or Need to Restore Your Device
1. iOS- Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
2. iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
3. Restoring iPod touch after forgotten passcode
4. What to Do If You've Forgotten Your iPhone's Passcode
5. iOS- Understanding passcodes
6. iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
Forgotten Restrictions Passcode Help
You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
Also, see iTunes- Restoring iOS software.
If this all fails then:
Placing your device into recovery (DFU) mode:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, 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.
* If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
charge, and then start with step 2 again.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Additional Information:
If you have a problem getting into recovery mode then try: RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode.
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information. -

iPhone 4s will not boot after trying to install ios7 beta 4. Stops at apple logo with progress line under it. how can I reset it or get it back up to do a restore then try the iOS 7 beta 4 install again. Issue was probably caused by disconnection
Obviously since you have iOS 7 you're a developer. As a developer, you signed a NDA with Apple not to discuss the iOS on a public forum. Please log in to the Developer Forum using your credentials and ask for help there, lest you risk having your credentials terminated.
Thanks, and best of luck to you.

Both my iPod and my MacBookPro connect with my home Wi-Fi but my iPad will not even after entering the passcode. I have tried Full shutdown and tried other Wi-Fi's for which I had the correct passcode. My iPad would not connect. Any suggestions?
Hi! I am having the same problem. What's odd is that a few days ago- the ipad was connecting to the network fine. No changes made. Other devices can connect to this network. I have also been able to connect my ipad to other networks.
I have reset all network settings, reset my ipad, reset the router, hard stop reboot, turn on/off wifi connection. what's interesting is that when i click the arrow next to the network i am trying to log onto- the ip address, router, and dns numbers come up automatically and the router number does not fill in (also- this process takes a long time- at least 5 minutes).
any thoughts? -
Help!!!!!! My wife's iPad will not start up. I updated two nights ago to the latest IOS and today it will not do anything. It is charged and I've tried to access it through itunes to no avail.
From your text, it's difficult to determine if the problem lies with the iPad or the cable.
If the iPad still works, but you're having a problem with the sync, you may want to check all the cables and connections. If the iPad doesn't work (frozen or unresponsive), post and we'll go through the checklist together. -
