Force your iPad into Recovery Mode:
1. Turn off iPad
2. Connect USB cable to computer; leave the other end alone
3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
5. Release the Home button
6. Open iTune
7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
8. Use iTune to restore iPad
Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad

  • I was burgled last night and my iPad stolen, I don't think find my iPad was enabled but iCloud  is on, what, if anything can I do?

    Can I track my iPad through iCloud only, I don't think find my iPad was enabled

    If you had "Find My iPad" enabled in Settings > iCloud then you may be able to locate it. If not, you cannot locate it.

  • I had a company iPhone but left a year ago resetting the phone before I left. I don't think it has been used since but my old boss has bought it and wants to use it. He says that it is still locked into me and wanted my Apple ID

    i can't remember if it was different yo my normal one but I don't intend to tell him. He is now asking instead for my security questions answers.
    IS there an thing I can do without releasing into to him?

    Yes,
    Go to Find My Phone, locate the specific Phone and remove it from your account,
    Remove an iOS device you no longer have
    If you no longer have the iOS device because you gave it away or sold it, you need to remotely erase it before you can remove it.
    Sign in to icloud.com/#find with your Apple ID (the one you use with iCloud).If you’re using another iCloud app, click the app’s name at the top of the iCloud.com window, then click Find My iPhone.If you don’t see Find My iPhone on iCloud.com, your account just has access to iCloud web-only features. To gain access to other iCloud features, set up iCloud on your iOS device or Mac.
    Click All Devices, then select the device.
    Click Erase [device], then enter your Apple ID password. Because the device isn’t lost, don’t enter a phone number or message.
    Note: If you’re trying to erase a family member’s device, that person will need to enter his or her Apple ID password on this device. 
    If the device is offline, the remote erase begins the next time it’s online. You’ll receive an email when the device is erased.If you erase your iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus and you have credit and debit cards in Passbook for Apple Pay, Find My iPhone attempts to remove your cards immediately, even if your iPhone is offline. For more information, see the Apple Support article Using Passbook.
    When the device is erased, click Remove from Account.All your content is erased, and someone else can now activate the device.

  • TS1424 Hello:  Please don't think this is a dumb question, but I selected a free trial of a magazine and now I'm being charged and don't know how to stop it.

    How do I cancel a free trial of a magazine?  Also, I was charged for something that I thought was free but isn't.

    There are instructions on this page for managing and stopping auto-renewing subscriptions : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4098
    For the item that you thought was free, have you made any in-app purchases within it and/or did you add or change your credit card details when downloading it (could it be a temporary store holding charge ?). If you think that you've been charged when you shouldn't have been then you can contact iTunes support here : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption.

  • HT1420 how do I know what devices have home sharing/iTunes Match. I don't think I have 5 computers setup, but the system says I do.

    I like to know what devices I have on home sharing and iTunes Match. Also, how do I increase may access to more than 5 devices if needed?
    Thanks

    Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, click on the version twice, append the last three digits of the computer's serial number to http://www.everymac.com/ultimate-mac-lookup/?search_keywords= , load the page, and check the computer's maximum OS version. If that's the current version, click here and read the entire page. If not, you can't use the Mac App Store version.

  • I don't think I have iCloud set up, but I need a partial restore to 9pm Sunday night... possible?

    I have a little bit of a dilemma on my hands.  Last night I dumped all of my summer photos into iPhoto.  I have this Lacie external drive that I used earlier this week to back up my computer so I set up a sync using Intego Backup Assistant for Mac.  I set it to sync my computer hard drive with the external, which made sense at the time.  When it finished, I got over 600 error messages and all of the photos I had just uploaded that day were gone from both my computer and the backup drive.  Time Machine did not help me and the recovery software I used found little 20kb versions of some of my photos but not at full quality.  I'm freaking out a little bit that more than 1,000 photos are just gone.  Someone please tell me there's a way to either recover everything I uploaded yesterday or that I can restore my computer to 9pm on Sunday...

    You will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset, which will normally be by phone as they need to confirm your id and that it's your account.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    You can try contacting them via this page and explain, but they are likely to want phone contact (which is likely to be quicker than emails going back-and-forth, and you potentially having to wait 24 hours for each reply) : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312

  • HT1918 I cant download anything I purchase when I try it brings me to my payment info and ask for security code I put it in and nothing happens. Says wrong code but it's not.

    Help me

    Is the address on your iTunes account exactly the same (format and spacing etc) as on your credit card bill : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646 ? If it is then you could try what it says at the bottom of that page :
    If the issue persists, contact your credit card company and verify that they and any company they use to process credit card authorizations have the correct information on file.
    And/or try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

    When I try to download applications such as Internet Explorer, Yugma, and iTunes in Firefox, I just get a window that says "save" or "cancel", but never one that says "run" so I don't think it's actually installing anything. It shows up in a "download" window, then the icon shows up on my desktop. When I click on it to launch it, it says "open with" and I get the same "save/cancel" window. It's a continuous circle. What am I doing wrong??
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I don't know. I never downloaded apps through Firefox until all of a sudden Internet Explorer didn't work. ==
    == User Agent ==
    Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)

    What application are you choosing to open the files with?
    Because of how integrated it is with windows IE should work. If it's not working, something more widespread could be wrong with your computer that would also prevent other browsers from working properly. Of course we'd love you to stick with Firefox, but you should get help with IE, too.

  • My 4S died and I was given a new one.  Now I can't get it to sync with my old info. I think I put the wrong email address for my apple ID, how can I change it?

    My 4S died this week and I was told it could not be repaired, so I was issued a new one.  During set up I could not remember my password, so set up a new one.  I think I used the wrong email address, not sure.  At any rate, now my phone and pad don't sync.  How can I get this corrected?  Thanks!

    It looks like your printer isn't on the list of air print enabled printers. It'll still work, you just need to do some tweaking.
    You can see if samsung has any apps to enable printing.
    or
    You can look into a third party app like Print n Share or Print Central.
    Then you can print from your iPad.

  • Apple recall...I don't think so

    I am an Mac geek. I love all (well, most) things Apple and have had, over the past 20 years, great respect for the company. And yes, I have some Apple stock.
    But let me say, unless these class action lawsuites win, I don't think Apple is going to do an iPhone 4 recall. It will simply be too expensive both monetarily and to their brand image. Yes, that image is taking a beating, and rightly so. But a full recall. I doubt it (although I hope I'm wrong).
    It is Apple's responsibility to test and release products that work and function. Not release it and have 1.7 million people beta test it for them. Almost every iPhone launch has been bigger the the previous. That means that Apple has to try harder to release products that work right out of the gate. That what happens when you become the second biggest company in the US.
    I think Apple will fix the issue quietly and let the blogosphere discover it. They will let you return your iPhone for a fixed replacement under warranty. Maybe the new white iPhone will have the issue fixed. This way, if you have an iPhone 4 with no issues, don't return it. If you have issues, return it and get iPhone 4.1. This will cost Apple far less than a a full recall since it will not involve all iPhones 4's sold.

    I disagree. Doig a full recall will show the world and loyalists that they are willing to accept and admit their mistakes, that they are sorry, and that they are working hard on a new design and will get it out shortly..sorry customer has to wait, but it will be worth it"
    This kind of statement will go long ways to regain respect of loyalists and will show new customers that they are not arrogant and are willing to learn from their mistakes...
    Its a good road for them to take.
    If they stay in denial, then they will lose respect of people.

  • My iPad 4 wifi 3G keeps charging slowly takes half a hour to get to 15% when plug into the wall with the plug and the lead what come with the iPad just wondering as I think some thing is wrong with the iPad

    Using the battery level meter in this manner is comparable to using your car's fuel gauge to calculate miles per gallon. The only thing that matters is the total amount of operating time from full charge to auto-shutdown.
    Use the wall-mount charger that came with the iPad and charge overnight.  Do NOT use an iPod/iPhone charger.  Do NOT use a computer's USB port.  Then, operate it normally until auto shut-down (ignore any low level alerts that may appear).  An irony is that doing that test to determine the total operating time is also the procedure necessary to calibrate the battery level meter.
    I'm not claiming that you do not have a problem.  I am stating, however, that we don't yet know.  If the above test does, in fact, indicate a problem, read this.
    Also, according to Apple:
    Use Your iPad Regularly
    For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).
    Elsewhere, Apple elaborates and explains that two half-discharges (or four quarter-discharges, etc.) equals one full discharge.

  • TS1368 I don't think I'm looking in the right place.  It says, "Please contact iTunes support to complete this transaction".  The reason it came up is because I added a credit card to my account.

    wow wrote that in the wrong place.  First time using this forum thing.  Question is still the same.  I don't think I'm looking in the right place.  It says, "Please contact iTunes support to complete this transaction".  The reason it came up is because I added a credit card to my account.  Do I have to just reset my password completely and all my security info and re-enter it?

    Have you considered doing exatly what it says and contacting itunes support?

  • I have been watching videos from my ipad via ATV2 with no problems.  As of yesterday my videos just keep loading and don't play.  I don't think I have done anything differently.  Does anyone know how to fix this.  I have tried unplugging it

    Hi, I have been watching videos from my ipad via ATV2 with no problems for over a year.  As of yesterday my videos just keep loading and don't play.  I don't think I have done anything differently.  Does anyone know how to fix this.  I have tried unplugging it waiting 30secs and then plugging it back in.  I have tried restarting, updating and reseting but nothing is working.  It's quite frustrating!!!! Any suggestions????

    I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

  • Just so you don't think I'm crazy....

    Somebody please explain this to me. I just sent my pc using sister two new paypal buttons to try (created a test page on my site).....she said THEY WORK!
    So please can you all look and see why these work:
    http://web.mac.com/karenhetzer/iWeb/Site%20Fancy/testing.html
    but the ones on the muralclassestogo page don't...I told you I wouldn't give up ...lol...there has to be an explanation.
    http://www.karenhetzer.com

    OK....good morning all .....just heard back from my sister and yes, when using the .mac address for muralclassestogo, all the buttons worked fine.
    Its still going to drive me crazy as to why this has become a problem after several weeks of no trouble...but....the big question.... NOW WHAT DO I DO?
    Do I go back to the instructions the Paypal guy gave?
    This error in this case is caused by the use of
    Framing or URL Masking on your webpage. When our
    logos are used in a Frame or Masked, the PayPal URL
    is not displayed, nor is the security lock displayed
    in the browser. This can also cause Run Time errors
    for most browsers if using JavaScript on the web site
    as well as time out issue when used with payment
    buttons. To resolve this issue you will need to have
    the PayPal page open unmasked or outside the Frame.
    One way to do this is by adding target="paypal" in
    the request built in HTML code.
    Will adding target="paypal" after the word 'area' do the trick. I have to tell you I tried it with just one of the buttons on the muralclassestogo page, and it didn't work. Do they all have to be changed in order for that big block of purple code to work, or is that not the answer? Or maybe I placed target="paypal" wrong (I left a space between words at each end, should there have been no space between 'area' and 'target' and "paypal" and whatever the next word was).
    I can't use that long .mac address as my website address, people can remember karenhetzer.com....don't think they'll remember the longer mac version.
    Are we sure it isn't some setting I may have changed on my computer?
    I think there was a recent Firefox update (on my computer) would that have affected anything?
    OH, and those blasted idisk icons are on my folders again, and I can't open them...whats that about?!
    WHAT WOULD YOU DO??
