    I have a new iPad Air and it is asking for my Passcode which I thought I knew , but it is not turning on with the code I tought I had entered?

    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.) No data/files will be erased.

    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 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.

  • I have a new IPad Air and when I turn the screen nothing rotates anymore like it should

    I have a new IPad Air and when you turn the screen it doesn't rotate anymore

    First thing to check is to see if there is a circular arrow around a small lock at the top right of your screen next to the battery indicator. If there is Rotation Lock is turned on. You can turn it off in the Control Center. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen and find that icon in the panel that comes up. Tap on that icon to turn off Rotation Lock.
    If Rotation Lock is not on try a reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • I have a new ipad air, and the notes app does not work right.  I write a note and it will keep it for several days, or weeks and then I go back to it later and it has disappeared.  This has happened several times.  Any ideas why?

    I have a new ipad air and am having trouble with the "notes" app.  When I write a note to keep, it will stay there for a few days or a week, and then it disappears.  This has happened several times.  Can anyone suggest why this is happening and how to fix it?

    Ok. I disabled hardware acceleration. The only extension is the McAfee Scriptscan for Firefox 15.1.0, which was already disabled. I then disabled all plugins (Acrobat, Google Update, Intel Identity Protection (2x), Java Deployment Toolkit, Java Platform, MS Office 2013, Quicktime, Shockwave, Silverlight), which were all up to date.
    Normal or safe mode still has same result. No startup, no option button and no customize.
    Thanks for your help. Got any other suggestions?

  • TS5366 My grandson made a purcase on my account without my permission, my paypal acct had an expired debit card on file and the charge went thru anyway, making my checking acct go negative. How can I get this charge reversed?

    My grandson made a purchase without my permission using my paypal account that has an expired debit card info. and the charge went thru anyway making my checking account go negatve. How can I get this charge reversed?

    Purchases are considered final but you can try the 'report a problem' link to contact iTunes Support and see if they will refund or credit you : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : 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
    If the purchase was made on an iOS device then to try and stop it happening again you can use Settings > General > Restrictions to turn off in-app purchases, and you can require your password to be entered for every download.

    Previously my account was set up so my daughter and I got texts when the bill was due. I recently made some changes in our plan and now this is gone. How do I get this back?

    Sorry, without knowing the Apple ID/Password that was originally used to activate this phone, then there is no way to re-activate it, as you've found out.
    Apple can't/won't help you. Your choice is to get this info, or you simply won't be able to re-activate this phone.
    If you ex won't give it to you, then consult a lawyer.

  • I have the new iPad Air and I'm having trouble connecting to iTunes. When I connect my iPad, my computer recognizes my iPad but iTunes does not. Why is this? I have a Windows 8.1 computer, and I've installed the latest iTunes. Please help!

    Please answer ASAP!!

    Hi eisense,
    I also have a similar problem but not quite the same. First of all, let me give you the setup of the configuration:
    -- Desktop PC OS: Windows 8.1 64-bit
    -- iTunes version: 11.3.1.2 (latest) for 64-bit
    -- iPad Air with 3G/4G SIM slot
    -- iOS version: 7.1.2 (11D257)
    -- Several USB peripherals: Keyboard, mouse, printer, scanner.
    What I want to do is to sync my iPad with iTunes (NOT to charge it via USB). However, I get a strange behaviour 99% of the time (I will talk about the 1% later). The behaviour is the following:
    1. I connect the iPad to any USB port of my PC. My desktop PC is a new one, substantially "beefed up".
    2. The iPad changes continuously from "Charging" to "Not charging" and vice versa all the time (the change of "charging states" happens roughly every 2 seconds).
    3. While doing that, iTunes changes state from recognizing the iPad to "not identifying it properly". It suggests that I disconnect and reconnect it again. No matter how many times I do that, it never does any good.
    4. Eventually I get an error (error code: 0xE8000084) but the change of "charging states" goes on and on.
    5. During this time I was checking the Windows Device Manager. When the iPad was at the "charging" state the "Apple Mobile Device USB" appeared under the "Universal Serial Bus controllers" section of the Device Manager. When it was not charging, the "Apple Mobile Device USB" disappeared.
    6. Even in the case the iPad was charging the "Portable Devices / Apple iPad" entry didn't appear in the Device Manager.
    I have read all the posts about the particular error code and about the connectivity issues with iTunes. However, no matter what I have tried I haven't resolved my problem yet. I completely uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes according to Apple instructions. Rebooted my PC while removing all the other USB peripherals. I stopped and restarted the AMDS service. I hard rebooted the iPad. I switched USB cables. I even tried to sync my iPhone 5S in case it was an iPad problem. All has failed. Even the iPhone has the same behaviour.
    NOW, about the 1% I was talking before.
    If the iPad is completely charged to 100% (99% is not enough) the problem disappears. During the time that the battery is at 100% the iPad is not charging and at the same time all is fine with iTunes. The problem reappears when the battery goes to 99%.
    I don't remember having this problem a few months back. Any ideas?

  • I have a new iPad Air and in using the App Store, it seems frozen with an app that I didn't want.   I cannot look at other apps in the store or anything.  How do I unfreeze it?  Something equivalent to Control Alt Delete with Window.

    I have an iPad Air just acquired yesterday.   The App Store seems to be frozen and I have on idea how to undo it.  It is as if i clicked on an app to download and it came up but it is frozen.  I cannot get rid of it or go to anything else in the App Store.   I tried downloading that app and opening it - didn't help.  Guess what I am looking for is the equivalent of Control +Alt+Delete in Windows.  Thanks.

    Double tap your home button and open apps will appear above as smaller screen shots.  With your finger swipe the open app upwards and it will fully close.
    The cntrl/alt/delete option on an iPad is a reboot and to do so, press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time for about 10 seconds until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will restart.
