‘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.

While downloading software update for Itunes, got message saying detecting Ipad in recovery mode and telling us to restore Ipad to original settings, which we don't want to do. Also cannot turn on Ipad; shows Itunes symbol with connector. Help!
No promises but a System Reset is worth trying:
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.
A System Reset does not remove any apps, music, movies, etc. nor does it cause any settings to revert back to default.
Also, you might wish to download the iPad-2 User Guide. Pay special attention to page 162. Note that this Guide also applies to the iPad-1 with IOS 4.3 except for those functions that are not supported by the hardware.
http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad
Finally, the User Guide can be downloaded at no charge via iBooks and a less comprehensive version of the Guide is included as a Safari bookmark. -

3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.

Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times. -
I put my iPad into Recovery Mode and can't get it out of it?
This probably sounds really silly but i forgot my password for my iPad ( don't the the generation but i think it is the first one that came out with a camera & ios7 (i think)) and put it in recovery mode. i do not know my apple id for the iPad (i have 2 apple accounts) my macbook is on a different account to my iPad and won't connect so i cant
get it out of recovery mode. i no longer have any other devices that has the iTunes account on either.
any ideas on how i can get it out of recovery mode or connect to iTunes would really help and please don't suggest go to the apple store, its a pain to get to and a pain to get a time i can go .
Many Thanks In Advance xPlace your device into recovery mode as described here. You may have to try this more than once to succeed.
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
The version of iOS you had before attempting recovery mode does not matter. Once the recovery successfully completes, you will have the current version (iOS 8.1.3). You need the current version of iTunes (12.1) on your computer to perform the recovery. Even if it goes smoothly, the recovery will take a while because it will include a download of iOS 8.1.3 to your computer (and then to your iPad). -

3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.

These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
Error 1604
This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode, put it into Recovery Mode.
Restore and wait for the error.
When prompted, click OK.
Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
Try to restore again.
If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
Error 1600, 1601, 1602
Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. This error may also be resolved by disabling, deactivating, or uninstalling third-party security, antivirus, and firewall software. See steps in this article for details on troubleshooting security software.

IPod stuck in recovery mode, and doesn't even appear in iTunes, so I can't restore, HELP!
So my iPod appears to be stuck in recovery mode, which shouldn't be a problem, but for some reason is isn't showing up on my computer. I'm not getting the "is not recognizable error" It just literally doesn't even exist to my computer, My iPod doesn't even show up in the devises on my computer, BUT WHEN I PLUG IT IN, IT CHARGES? so I'm just really confused, any input would be great. Thanks!
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My phone is in recovery mode and doesn't turn on, what do I do?
I tried to back it up to my computer because I didn't have anymore iCloud storage space. It was supposed to upgrade but then went on upgrade mode and only thing I can do to get it off this mode is to connect it to iTunes and restore the phone to its original settings. I do not want to do that. I want my phone to turn on and it's ok if I'm not upgraded to ios7
Well, do as the diagram indicates: Connect your iPhone to your computer and restore via iTunes.

Hi Everyone,
Its been 2 weeks only sense I bought my first iOS devise (iPhone 6) and I am having major problems with it. it all started when my WiFi stopped working and grayed out completely so I thought it will be ok after I restart it, and I did but it got stuck on the Apple logo screen. I restored it using iTunes new update for iOS 8.0.2 worked for a couple of hours only but my battery was running low so I switched it off. later when I wanted to switch it on again, I got the same problem with the phone stuck to the Apple logo screen but this time it wont restore or upgrade through iTunes and displayed error (4005). can any one please help???
Ali TariqTry a Reboot press & hold power button & menu button hold both down until you see Apple Logo you will not lose any data But you may need to do this more than once. If you need to update your iPhone try and do this over wifi I never use a PC for Software updates on iPhone / iPad Cheers Brian

does anyone know how i can fix this issue? i have tried using iTunes 4 times to restore it and still no luck... this is really frustrating!!
issue resolved on 10/06/2013... the problem was with my iMac's terminal ID in the update. After a few minutes talking to a specialist, we resolved the issues by placing a space, " ", where my computer ID's address was located.
after asking about whether or not to update so fast with an "older iMac" (early 2008) i was told to, "stop being the test dummy and let others instigate new OS issues."
i was told apple knows about software updating problems but is hard to universally make the new iOS work perfectly with older macs...
glad to know that the customer service department is honest and helpful -
