‘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.

  • Updating software came up with error now asking to connect to iTunes but when i do says ipad in recovery mode and must restore the ipad before connecting to iTunes ?

    I was updating my daughters ipad last night to the latest operting system, when finished it came up with an error message, her ipad then went blank and came up with the picture to connect to itunes. But when I connect to itunes it comes up with the error message "itunes has detected an ipad in recovery mode. You must restore this ipad before it can be used with itunes" - can someone help with how I can do this

    Recovery Mode
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

  • Unable to update apps on iPad mini. I have even restored the iPad and now I can't download any of my previously purchased apps.

    Can someone help me. I am using an iPad mini with iOS 7.0.4 with wifi connection. Have had no problems until recently when I was unable to update apps and then noticed that some apps would open but no data would be available in apps like intelicast and Pinterest. I have restored the iPad and now I am unable to download any of my previously purchased apps.

    1. Make sure iPad is using the latest software
    2. Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>On
    3. Make sure Time Zone is correct
    4. Reset iPad. Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo.

  • HT5622 App store on Ipad asks for wrong ID when downloading, The correct one is entered in the App store in my settings. How do I get the app storeto let me download??

    On Ipad the app store asks for the wrong ID when I try to downlaod or update an app. But the correct ID and password are entered in the Settings for App store on the same Ipad. I have re-entered them, but I still get wrong one requested. Any suggestions??

    apps are forwever linked to the ID that was used to downlaod them.  I suggest you delete the apps that ask for the old ID and download them again with your current ID

  • Need to restore due to forgot passcode, but then itunes says it needs passcode to restore...how do I restore when disabled?

    Please help!

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:

    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

  • Can I backup one iPad to another temporarily and then restore them both at a later time?

    My older son is autistic and is non-verbal.  He uses his iPad to communicate with people around him.  I need to put his iPad into the shop to get the screen repaired.  I have made backups of both, my iPad and his.  Can I restore my iPad using his backup to make mine look like his, so he can borrow mine while his is in the shop, and then when his is repaired, restore mine to my backup?  Both iPads are iPad 2, and both have the latest IOS.  Both are also 64 GB.
    Thank you for the help.

    If you have a computer, yes you can do that. You can't back them up to each other though.
    Using a computer (presuming you set it up with one, if you didn't then it gets trickier), back up yours. then go into the settings, reset, erase all content and settings, which puts it back to being straight out of the box. Hook his up, do a full back up. Unplug it. Plug yours back in and set yours up, and when you have the choice to set up as new or restore from backup, choose that and his data will clone onto yours.
    Take his in, when you get it back, it should be wiped, restore it from the backup of his and you can then wipe yours and restore yours from the backup
    But how are you getting it fixed? If it's going to an apple store and you're getting an out of warranty replacement, you won't need to do that because you'll take it in, pay the fee, walk out with the replacement and you can then restore that one from the backup, so you'd have no need to juggle the data.....unless you're mailing it in and it'll take a few days, etc.

  • Can't log in to Icloud to turn off find my iPad so I can restore the iPad following upgrade to IO8

    I Recently update to IOS8 and the 8.2. I had to change my password for my Apple ID. now I have a problem that I can not log in to icloud, I can't agree to the T&C's the iPad just freezes and I can restore the iPad via a pc  as I need to access iCloud to turn of 'find my ipad'
    HELP !!!!!! Please

    If you know the password to your apple id login - you can then do a restoration once you have put your device into recovery mode using itunes.
    read this article to give you direction how to put your device into recovery mode.
    Once you have put in your apple id login and password this then will allow you to restore the device once the device is placed in recovery mode.
    good luck!

  • How to enter 2nd Electronic Signature?

    We recently instituted electronic signature for our Engineers using Acrobat X Pro and a third party certification. The plan is for the first engineer to sign the PDF document and email it to the second engineer for his signature and approval. The system works well when we convert a Word document to PDF, which shows the PDF Producer (File => Properties) as Adobe PDF Library. However, when we use an interactive Acrobat document generated by our publications department, it shows the PDF Producer as Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES 9.0. With the latter document, the first engineers can sign the document, but in the "Sign Document" dialogue box the "Lock Document After Signing" option is not available. As the result, the document is locked by the first person who signed it and the second person cannot sign it.
    Is there an option to select to enable the second person to sign the document if it is generated by Adobe LifeCycle Designer?

    George,
    Thank you for your reply. We ended up creating actual signature fields in Adobe LiveCyle on the documents and routed them to our engineers for their signatures. It worked great.

    I suspect you're dealing with a dynamic XFA form and attempting to place an additional signature, as opposed to signing a preexisting digital signature field. It should work if the form has as many digital signature fields as will be needed. It won't otherwise. Note that if the form is a dynamic XFA but it doesn't need to be (e.g., because you're not adding or autoexpanding fields at run-time), then you might be able to create it as a static XFA form and then users will be able to place as many signatures as is needed.

  • Ipad asking for apple id and passcode after restore i do not have these what to do please... ive tried everything its my ipad i have recipt

    i brought an ipad for my daughter 2 years ago i have had to restore this due to her entering the wrong passcode few times as she is only 8 i have done all that was asked now its asking me for the apple id and passcode i have entered all the ids and passwords i can think off the hint of id has gave me no clue at all i have been trying to do this all night its her birthday tomorrow and i need it unlocked i have recipt is there anny way at all thank you

    Perhaps you have been given the incorrect user id deliberately.
    If this is the case and the phone won't work, then you are stuffed and there is nothing you can do.  You will never be able to use the phone again, so cut your losses and return it for a full refund and buy a new phone from a legitimate source next time.

  • I forgot the passcode to turn off restrictions. I have restored my iPad back to the factory settings and then synced it with the latest backup. The restrictions are still on and it is asking for the passcode. Can someone tell me how to get that off.

    I forgot the passcode to turn off restrictions. I have restored my iPad back to the factory settings and then synced it with the latest backup. The restrictions are still on and it is asking for the passcode. Can someone tell me how to get that off.

    The only option is to wipe the device clean and restore it to factory settings.  Hope you have a backup.
    Follow the instructions in  iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 to restore the device to factory settings.
    Once you have setup the device as a new one, you can then sync it back with your iTunes account and all your music, apps, contacts and any other content sync'ed with iTunes will be loaded on the device. Any content that is stored only on the device and not sync'ed with iTunes, like app logins or data, will be lost during this process. Be forewarned that this is a long process and can take a couple of hours or more to complete. This can be painful, but it is necessarily so to prevent users from working around the security settings. After the restore is complete, you can setup a new Restrictions passcode. Make a note of the passcode to avoid this situation in future.
