  • HT4113 My daughter changed her pass code to the more difficult one involving letters and #'s.  she forgot what it was and tried several times and now her IPad says IPad is disabled connect to ITunes.  What can we do to get into the IPad?

    Is there anything we can do to get into an IPad that has been disabled due to excessive/unsuccessful attempts of entering the pass code on an IPad?

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school enviroment. 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 cancelling 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.

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

    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 most iTunes purchases by:

    my ipod was stolen and i finnaly was able to get into my account after they changed the password is there a way i can fid the locaition of my ipod even if it has died ?

    No.  The only way is if the FindMyiPod feature was already set up and wifi is on.  However, that can be defeted by turning the iPod off or restoring it. If they have access to the iPod then can just turn the feature off.
    If the iPod off/battery drained how would you expect there t be a way of finding it?
    Apple will not help.

    The most immediate thing you need to do is to call your credit card company and report the unauthorized charges. Your card company can contact Apple if they need additional information.
    Next, log into your iTunes Store account and see if the purchases are reflected in the Purchase History. If they are, immediately change the password to your iTunes Store account, making sure it's not something easily guessed or looked up. Then go here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
    and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store. Whether or not they'll do anything for you I don't know, particularly if you didn't change the password after your iPod was stolen.
    If the charges are not reflected in the Purchase History, then it's most likely a fraudulent charge to your credit card directly rather than an unauthorized purchase through your iTunes Store account in which case it will be up to your bank to handle.
    Regards.

  • My iPod was stolen and now I can't access my iTunes account

    My iPod was stolen and within half an hour my iTunes account was locked from an attempted hack.
    I reset all the passwords and have since gotten a new iPod but anytime I try to login to my account everything freezes. I can access it online and on this forum, obviously, but my laptop running windows7 freezes instantly and my desktop computer running windows XP freezes as soon as I try to go to the store.
    How do I fix this? It happens on both the computers I had authorized for that iPod and I'm not sure what to do.
    Do I need to delete my account and start over? If so how would I do that? I've been told it is extremely difficult and usually results in the loss of use of iTunes on any computers you had authorized before.
    At this point I don't even care about the money I'll lose on my old account I just want my music back.
