HT201418 how can i restore my ipad mini when the device is already disabled
Below are details of the device:
-Ipad Mini 16 gig
-ios 8.1.2
Problem:
I change the passcode of my son's ipad though lost mode to prevent my son from playing or using his ipad mini during school days.
My son son repeatedly input passcode to attempt to open his ipad mini and his ipad is disabled, i am trying to access it through
itunes but wont work.
I still remember the passcode i made to restrict my son but when it is in disabled mode i never ask me for the code and cannot restore on itunes the ipad.
the i pad is back up on cloud on my apple id through family sharing and made my son his own icloud account.
please help me. thanks
Thanks

Just go to icloud and erase it. There is only one downside - you will not be able to activate imessage and facetime for 24 hours after erase.

What do i have to do if my ipad after installing the ios7 do not enter because of asking for a passcode and i've never put a passcode and its a new ipad?
I had the same problem. After hours and hours of wrong password I placed one that I set up when I bought the iPad, I remembered that password I had to put it even if had disabled the option of asking me a passcode so, I placed that old one and !!!cabum! it continued the settings so, start thinking....

I got stuck with the Yahoo tab that opens Yahoo every time you open a new tab . I looked online for a way to get rid of it and in the process told the computer to restart Firefox in safe mode. Here I chose to permanently disable add on s and then I clicked the apply and restart button. Since then I can't download the new version of flash because Firefox sees it as and add on. Any Idea on how I can get this to work with out having the Yahoo tab back?

How can i fix my ipad mini? because it keeps on restarting repeatedly.
how can i fix my ipad mini? because it keeps on restarting repeatedly.
Ideally the best thing to do in this situation is a soft reset, press and hold down the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together until the Apple logo appears.
The factory settings option you've gone for should resolve this as well, but unless you've backed up you will lose content with this option.

HT201269 how can i restore my iPad?
how can i restore my iPad?
Nevermind, I solved it with iPad backup restore. Backed up every app individually to an ipa with app+records. Then reset to factory, restored old iTunes backup and did the same again for the other apps. Now I have all apps on the computer with its corresponding data and don't rely on partially implemented backup solutions.

My iPad Air is disabled after wrongpassword attempts.I didn't sync it with my laptop also. How can I restore it with out losing the data.
You can't unlock it without losing data. It's too late for that now. You totally erase the iPad when you unlock it and you will have to start all over again. Most of your purchased content can be downloaded again.
Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support

how can i restore my ipad from a previous backup (not the most recent). I can get the restore from backup, but there is only the most recent one visi
bleAgain, iTunes only keeps one normal backup, per device. Any other backups listed are backups created from restore points. These are time/date stamped & are not overwritten.
