Restore ipad mini

want ask about restore ipad mini with itunes .when im restornig my ipad mini the restornig stop long time in preparing iPad for restore and it still has not progressed . pls help me

Hello Ghaith2014,
Thank you for your question! It sounds like you are trying to restore your iPad Mini but it is not completing successfully. I would start by restarting both the computer, and the iPhone:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
If that does not resolve the issue, you may need to try backing up your iPad, to iTunes first:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
Then use this article to put the iPad in recovery mode, and attempt the restore again:
If you can't update or restore your iOS device

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

How comes the Ipad mini isn't Retina Display if it has the same resolution as the New iPad?

How comes the Ipad mini isn't Retina Display if it has the same resolution as the New iPad?

The iPad mini doesn't have the same resolution as the "new iPad".
iPad 3 & 4 (retina) = 2048x1536 pixels
iPad 1 & 2 (original) = 1024x768
iPad mini = 1024x768
Apple likely didn't put a retina screen in the iPad mini to keep cost down and to have an option to upgrade the iPad mini to a retina screen down the road, in a year or two. It could be however that the pixel density of 2048x768 at 9" poses a problem for the viewer, in that text and features might be rendered too small or too thin for the average buyer/consumer.

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 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.

Restoring ipad mini - stops half way through without error.

I have been searching around for answeres, but I havent found anything similar.
My ipad mini arrived from apple just a few days ago. I wasn´t able to connect to itunes, so I decided to try to restore it, in hope of making it easier to connect to itunes. I followed the procedure i found here and everything worked fine until I started to restore it i itunes. Itunes detected my ipad and told me I had to restore it. I started to restore and the software was successfully downloaded as the first step in itunes. After downloading it started to install the software to the ipad. After installing about 60% of it, it wont go further. It stops and stays frozen without continuing. There are no ERROR messages or anyting suggesting something is wrong. The same happens when I try the same procedure again.
I have tried to delete the software file in the "itunes folder" and download a new verson, still it doesn´t work. All software is updated and the macbook has been restarted.
I have been in contact with apple, but the people I have spoken to haven´t experienced this problem before. I hope you can help me.

You are going to have to keep trying. Thats all there is. If not you are going to have to drive to apple and get a new one. Yours should have a warrenty.

After a backup, clicked on upgrade IOS via Itunes. Upgrade failed and now IPAD is locked, showing a graphic of a cable connector, an arrow and an Itunes symbol. Ipad is locked there. How to restore IPAD?

Upgrade my IPAD from 8.1.3 to 8.2 via Itunes (from Windows Computer)
First I backed up the IPAD via Itunes on my Windows laptop.
Then I click upgrade IOS to 8.2 on Itunes.
Later got a upgrade failure pop up window.
Now IPAD is locked with a blank screen showing a cable connector and an arrow pointing to Itunes symbol.
The IPAD does not boot, and the Itunes does not recognize the IPAD.
turning on/off the IPAD does not change the display.
How to restore or reboot the IPAD?

I rebooted the computer and tried once again using a different USP port. This did the trick!. I was able to run the IOS update and it stuck and timed out while the Itunes was indicating that it was verifying the IOS installation (on ipad I could see a grayed working bar). After it timed out the IPAD completed the task, and now it is working again.
Thanks!
