HT4623 Just updated my iPad now it's telling me to connect to iTunes I don't have a computer to connect it to iTunes

Downloaded new update now I get a screen with a plug and iTunes but nothing else help me fix it

Unfortunately, you have to restore the iPad using recovery mode and you must use iTunes on a computer to do so. You can restore your iPad on any computer that is running iTunes, but it will totally erase the iPad. That's what would happen if you had your own computer as well, but many people would have a backup in iTunes from which they could restore,
If you backup with iCloud, you can restore that backup after you get the iPad up and sunning again. If you don't backup, you will just have to start downloading your content again. Most of your paid content will be free to download again as long as you use the same Apple ID and as long as it is still available in the stores where it was purchased.

  • I'm trying to update my daughter's Ipad2 to the new IOS 8 and it's got stuck on the connect to ITunes display.  We don't have a computer to connect it to and it's never been connected to one.  How do I get past this?

    You can try a soft-reset of pressing and holding both the home and sleep buttons for 10 to 15 seconds so that it reboots, but you are likely to get the same screen. If it does then it will need to be connected to a computer's iTunes so that it can be reset back to factory defaults - do you have a friend with a computer with iTunes installed on it, or is there an Apple store nearby that you could try going to (if there is then preferably make a Genius Bar appointment at it, or don't go at a busy time) ?
    Has she been backing up to the cloud ? If she has then she should be able to restore to that. If not then what she can redownload for free from the stores will show in the Purchased tabs in the store apps.

  • HT4623 hi just updated my iPad . now its dead any ideas

    hi just updated my ipad to the newest version. now iits compleatley dead. itunes wont reconize it

    Hey Spenn4704,
    Thanks for the question, I understand how frustrating this may be. It sounds like the update process may have been interrupted, and to resolve the issue, we’ll need to restore your device in recovery mode with iTunes:

    If your device is not recognized in iTunes for Windows while in recovery mode, see this article (Specifically Step 5, sub-step “If the device is not recognized while in Recovery Mode”)

  • HT4623 ive just updated my ipad now it wont charge ???

    just updated ipad now wont charge

    Hi Matty,
    Try a reset, hopefully you have enough juice to turn it on. If so, with power on hold down the Sleep/Wake & Home buttons together for approx 5-10 seconds until the Apple Logo appears on the screen.
    Once restarted try charging again.
    Regards,

  • I just updated my iPad, now I no longer have the YouTube application. How do I get it back.

    Once I updated my iPad with the iOS 6 update, I lost my YouTube app. How do I get it back?

    YouTube was removed for their new app (only iPhone available right now), but you can access their page through Safari as it is optimized for iPad. Ipad App is not out yet, still waiting myself!
    After you have it running in Safari, just click the arrow icon to ADD TO HOME SCREEN to make a quick shortcut with easy access to the link.

  • HT4623 After updating my Ipad now has No Sim message...

    Hi.. After updating my iPad to the latest software.. I am getting 'No Sim' message... I've tried rebooting the iPad but no luck.. I've removed and reinstalled the sim?

    Hey Juanita16may,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with your iPad 2 and your SIM card. The following resource may provide a solution. Keep in mind that some of the steps may be iPhone-specific, but most should be applicable for your iPad:
    iPhone: Troubleshooting No SIM
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4148
    1. Update your iPhone to the latest version of iOS.
    2. Toggle Airplane mode On and Off.
    3. Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    4. Check for a carrier settings update. Tap Settings > General > About. If an update is available, a prompt will appear.
    5. Remove the SIM Card and verify that it is a valid, carrier-manufactured SIM. Also verify that it is not damaged, worn, or modified. Then reinsert it.
    6. Restore the iPhone.
    If you still are unable to resolve this issue, contact Apple support for further assistance.
    If your issue persists after completing all of the steps, please follow the last section to contact Apple support.
    Thanks,

  • Iphone update needs to connect to iTunes - I DON'T HAVE A COMPUTER WITH ITUNES?

    My macbook gave up for good and I haven't purchased a new one yet, so I have been using an old PC (boo, I know). It doesn't have iTunes, so I have been using my iPhone4 for everything. My iphone has EVERYTHING stored on it (lots of songs, movies, books, etc) so I couldnt connect it to itunes on a new computer without using a third party app to download my stuff.
    Okaaaaay so:
    Tonight my iphone told me it was time to update, so I did. It worked fine until the picture came up on the screen telling me to connect my phone to itunes! This is a major problem for me because I do not have itunes on a computer, and if I download it, I would lose everything from my phone. As of right now I cannot use my phone because it is only the picture telling me to connect to itunes. The picture stays on for 30 seconds and then the phone will turn off, unless it is plugged in, then it will just stay on with the picture. What do I do??? I'm so paniced to lose everything from my phone and don't know what to do!

    P.S. If the apple store needs my phone, can they open it without knowing my passcode? I have confidential stuff on there that I can't have anyone but a selected few see.

    Unfortunately, to fix your phone will require restoring it through iTunes. Since you have no backup of the data on your phone, there is nothing to restore back to your phone. Thus, your data is gone. You can either download iTunes to your computer & restore your phone or go to an Apple store & have the geniuses do the same. In either case, your only option will be to restore as a new device, erasing all data on your phone.
    Not want you want to hear, but it is what it is.

  • HT201406 Trying to update an iPad to os7.   Need 4 digit pass code.  I don't have one and am locked in the update?  What should I do?

    Trying to update to Os7.  Program is asking for four digit pass code and I do not have one set up.  Now I an locked in the update.   What should I do?

    Check to make sure you are not being asked to set up a pass code. Look for a very small Skip button. If the Skip button is there you are being asked to create a passcode. Either enter the four digits you want to use (and remember them) or tap on Skip.

  • Updated ios 8.1 now my screen is stuck on connect to itunes, I don't have a computer to do this and Apple is stating that my device is out of warranty so they want me to pay $19 to get it looked at when it is APPLE's upgrade

    So upgraded my ipad and now I can't use it at all, can't get any support from Apple because it is past the 1 year, this is crazy because it is Apple's product and Apple's upgrade, NOT my fault.  Screen is stuck on connect to iTunes but cannot get it to un stick.  UGH!

    If you ever want to be able to use the iPad again, you have to connect it to a computer running iTunes to restore it. Your iPad is in recovery mode and nothing can be done for it over the phone anyway. You can blame Apple for the problem if you want to, but that's not going to change anything.
    Take your iPad to a friend or relatives's house that has a computer running iTunes and restore your iPad. Make an appointment at an Apple Store and ask them for help. I don't think that you have to pay for a Genius Bar visit. Phone support is a different story.
    IF you have an iCloud backup, you will be able to restore the backup after you get the iPad up and running again. If you have no backup, you will have to start all over again.

  • I tried to update my phone and it shut off and said I need to plug it into a computer for itunes and I dont have a computer to connect it to. My phone wont turn on either and I can't use it until I connect to a computer.

    Phone says i need to connect to itunes but dont have a computer???

    Two options. Create a guest user on the computer and there will not be any content on the "guest" iTunes. Or if unable to do that set up the iPhone as New. Do not subsequently synch the phone.
    Third option is to take the phone to the Genius Bar at an Apple store.
