Pls I need information on how to protect and recover mybipad when stolen. Thanks.
There are no viruses or malware on iPads, unless you have jailbroken it.
Make sure Safari's pop-up blocker is turned On.

How can I activate my iPad when it has an old iCloud adress that I don't know the password for it?
Click here and reset the password. If you've forgotten the Apple ID, you can recover it from the same site.

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.

How can I get on iCloud when it say the maximum number of free accounts has been activated on this IPad?
A maximum of three new iCloud accounts can be created on a single iOS device. If you have already created three iCloud accounts (why?) then log in using one of those to start using it.
Otherwise, you'll have to find another device to create an iCloud account on. -

HT5622 How can i update my apps when someone elses Apple id is requested?
How can I update my apps when someone elses Apple ID is requested and the person no longer has their iphone or remembers their password?
If someone else's Apple ID comes up when trying to update an app it means that that app was downloaded or purchased under that Apple ID and not yours. Apps are always associated with the ID used to download or purchase them the first time.
To avoid this from happening in the future delete that apps purchased under the other ID and download or purchase them with your ID. -
How can I sync my ipad when itunes won't let you
I am trying to sync my ipad and when I go to the itunes it just somes up inthe store. There are no options on the top for anything. what the heck happened to it and how can I get it back??!
Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

Hi my IPad was stolen today from my RV in Mexico. I havent activated ICloud or Find My Ipad. I am trying to report it stolen on line, but have not been able to do much yet. I have emailed to my home in Canada, asking people to look for my serial numbers.
Hi, i have just had my IPad stolen, last night. I am in Mexico, and didnt have my access password activated. I dont have my serial numbers yet, tho I am having people at home in Canada look for them. Unfortunately I did not set up ICloud, or Find My IPad on my devise. I don't have any other computer or devise. I am using my friends Apple computer now.
So some questions...
if I send you my Apple Id, and my passoword, can you do anything to help me... find my IPad?..., or lock it?... or at least report it stolen?
Would setting up I Cloud on my friends computer be of assistance at this late date.??
Thank you so much
Do you have another other suggestions?

Apple ID on my Ipad: [email protected]You are out of luck, then. You cannot track it, Apple cannot help you (btw, this is not Apple here.) You can't set up Find My Phone after the iPad is gone.
Notify the police. Change all your passwords. Buy a new iPad.
Perhaps your insurance will cover the loss for you, so speak with your insurance agent. -
How can I reboot my Ipad when I do not have access to the power off screen?
My device slide off my couch while in its cover. IT was working afterwards, for about 5 min. I sat it down while I took something out of the oven and was back maybe 5min. or so later. When i try to access it, all I see is a black screen. I cannot unlock it or even power off. How can I reboot it without the power off swipe ?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reboot/Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).
Restore: Connect your iPhone to iTunes on your computer, backup, and then select Restore to Factory -
How can i recover my ipad when it doesnt show in itunes
tried to update to ios 5, ipad now wont restore, and doesn't show in itunes, how can I recover this is I can't see it on my PC, the screen just constantly shows the connect to itunes photo.
I think you may need to place the iPad in Recovery Mode within iTunes in order to restore the device. Read this for the instructions.

Hello,
In 2014, I am expecting to be out of the states for a long period of time which is over 3 months. I am not planning of bringing my MacBook Pro with me. As a result, what would be the correct procedure for the battery in order to preserve it in the best condition when I return back and use the battery normally.
Many thanks for your assistance!This is the article for non-Retina systems. Not sure what to do fro Retina units:

I would also keep it with a friend/familymember you can trust to not take it out during that time and play frisbee with it to control humidity levels and temperature and access while unattended.
