No it doesn't say "skip this." It seems to be locked and wants a "restrictions" passcode which I have never set up and keeps asking for the passcode. I have no idea what I am doing and I cannot get my locations unlocked at all...

I'v been trying to put a video from my laptop to my iphone for soo long now but i just cant, it wont let me put my video onto itunes but it just wont let me, i'm going crazy please help
well, the video is probably in a format that iTunes doesn't recognize. Convert it using an application like Handbrake.

ipad is asking for a passcode which I never installed. iPad is now disabled. Tried syncing to itunes with my mac book pro, won't sync. How do I fix this?
Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, 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.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times. -

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.

My ipad is asking for a pass code to perform the software updates. It has never done this before and I haven't set a pass code. How do I find, amend or delete this?
It's asking for the passcode you use to lock/unlock your iPad.

my friend activated my new ipad4 with icloud but now he is died and my device asking for icloud account but i don't know what i shall do.. please help me.. my imei number is 01*********544
<Personal Information Edited by Host>There is a new security feature in iOS 7 called Activation Lock. You need the
AppleID and passcode used to activate the iPad or it will be useless to you.
There is no workaround.
Suggest you try very hard to remember that AppleID and passcode. Did you try the
AppleId you used to log into this forum?

I have been using my iPad with sim for weeks now, just 24 hrs ago the message I am having is no SIM card installed, I tried it with some other SIM card same same still pop up. What can I do pls
ok, I did, and it said again congrats your iPhone is unlocked, but, when it said there was a new carrier update, I cancelled it, but, it asked me again, I cancelled again, I guess I'm scared it will lock it again if I allow the carrier update.
Oh, there it goes again, this time on the phone, arg. I hit update, I hope it doesn't freak out.
I'm glad I didn't destroy the SIM like I almost did. But, it will come out again, longer battery life with the cell portion turned off. -
My wife gave me her older ipad. I have reset and removed all data. My Apple ID (Ipod touch) is not an email adress, but when I try to stu up the ipad it asks for my Apple ID, then tells me that for security reasons the Apple ID must be in email format?
Change it to an email address.

Just purchased a new router yesterday since ours got struck by lightning. Now my husband's iphone and my ipad are asking for guest wifi passwords. Don't understand.
Some new routers come with the standard connection as well as a guest account. The guest account can be used for when friends come over and want to use your Wi-Fi connection. You can give them the guest account password and still keep the main account password private. Make sure you are logging on to the main connection and not the guest account.

The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required.
If you cannot get this information from the seller
Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
You need to return the Device for a refund, as you will not be able to re-activate it. -
Every time I open my iPad it asks for my Apple ID?
Every time I open my iPad it asks for my Apple ID and password. The Apple ID is already loaded in the box is wrong; it isn't my own Apple ID.
So, to whom does the Apple ID belong?
If this is a used iPad, the previous owner needs to remove it from their cloud account so you can put it in your name.
Apps purchased by an Apple ID are forever linked to that ID, not the iPad.
