I just uploaded IOS 8 to Ipad mini and I get cord and arrow pointing to ITUNES?

I just uploaded IOS8 to ipad mini and get the cord and arrow pointed to ITunes (black screen behind) .  I have goggled every website and instruction on how to restore with home buttons and on/off and cable connected to Ipad and computer and continue to get the same picture .  Please can anyone help me?

hi, I have the same exact problem today and mine is also an iPad mini
all I do is connecting my iPad to itunes (make sure you have the latest version) and then a pop-up appears and it gave me two option 'update' and 'restore'
choose the update and let itunes downloading the ios, I don't know if this might happen to you but after sometimes another pop-up appears to say the download failed and I need to restore my ipad, I choose to ignore it (by clicking restore and update > cancel) because on my first attempt I click update and it suddenly re-downloading from zero, and it keeps appearing for every 10 minutes so I just choose the 'eject ipad' option and keep the itunes downloading the ios
once it finished downloading connect the ipad, choose update, the apple logo will appear on your ipad with a stripe below
it takes a long time to update the ios on the ipad but please be patient because it might took a long time
after a depressing 15 hours of downloading and 1 hour of updating I managed to get my ipad back with a new ios and without losing any data (please note that I don't have any backup of my files and using my friends pc to do all the steps above)
good luck and sorry for my bad english

  • Every time I try and use iTunes or the App Store on my iPad Mini, I keep getting the message "Cannot connect to iTunes Store". However, on my iPod Touch 4th Generation - signed into the same account - it works with no problems. Can anyone help? Thanks!

    As I've already mentioned, I can't connect to iTunes or the App Store, the same message appears every time: "Cannot connect to the iTunes Store". I downloaded a few apps before I connected my iPad Mini to my Computer. I started doing an update that was about 9 or 10 hours long, somewhere around that time, and I unplugged it about halfway through the update and since then I've not been able to get onto iTunes or the App Store. I checked to see if I could continue the update but when I looked on iTunes again, no updates appeared. On my iPod Touch 4th Generation, everything works absolutely fine and it is logged into the same Apple ID. I've tried resetting my Network Settings, logging into someone else's Apple ID, connecting to a different Wifi, changing the DNS settings to 8.8.8.8, rebooting my Computer and iPad and changing the HTTP Proxy to Auto. Is there anything else I could try or am I just overlooking something? I would really appreciate it if someone could help me out here, thanks!

    Can you connect to a wifi source on the device? Enable wifi in settings on the device itself. If you don't have wifi at home, there may be a local hotspot you can use for this.
    The reason this happens is carriers don't want people downloading huge files that would slow their network as well as eat up your data plan.

  • TS1702 Since updating to the latest iOS on iPad mini I can not open and read magazines in Zinio

    Is anyone else having a problem with the latest iOS and Zinio?

    Seems zinio needs to update their app.

  • I did the latest update on my iphone and now I have a displayed white usb cord with an arrow pointing to ITunes with the circle with the musical note inside.  I can't turn off the phone nor can I get beyond this display.  Phone goes to voice mail..no ring

    I installed the latest update to my iphone 4 and now all I have is a display of the white usb cord with arrow pointing to ITunes with a clue circle with the musical note in it displayed.  I can't access my phone at all.  I tried calling it and it says unavailable.  I don't know how to restore it...it says it is in recovery mode but when I try to recover, it says no iphone found.
    I have no idea how what to do to restore my phone.  It's fully charged.
    GRRRR

    Put the device in DFU mode (Google it) and restore.

  • I have an Ipad first generation with IOS 5.1.1. and I have just got a new ipad mini. Should I use the back up of the old Ipad from Itunes copy to configure the new one, or it is better to configure the new one from scratch?

    I have an Ipad first generation with IOS 5.1.1. and I have just got a new ipad mini. Should I use the back up copy of the old Ipad from Itunes to configure the new one, or it is better to configure the new one from scratch?

    Contrary to the opinion above, I see no reason whatsoever why you can't set up the new iPad from the backup of the old one. Obviously you will have app updates to make and complete and that sort of thing, but if you want to retain all of your app data and device settings (some of which will change because of the updated iOS), I would certainly restore from the backup first.
    If you find that to be problematic, you can always start all over again.

  • I just bought an new ipad mini with wifi and cellular. Is there any way to send text messages to people and contacts that do not have iphones such as friends with blackberrys or a samsung galaxy smartphone.

    I just bought an new ipad mini with wifi and cellular. Is there any way to send text messages to people and contacts that do not have iphones such as friends with blackberrys or a samsung galaxy smartphone from this ipad. Everytime I try to send a message to a person that does not have an Apple product ( Iphone or Ipad ) it comes up saying contact is not registered for iMessage and wont send it. I can only send them a message from my iPhone 4 instead. Do I have to install a new App from the App store to send these non iMessage cell users a message?

    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 just uploaded the latest IPad software to my IPad and am now having loads of trouble with the device recognizing "online buttons", that is, links, etc.

    I just uploaded the latest IPad software to my IPad and am now having loads of trouble with the device recognizing "online buttons", that is, links, etc.  what can I do?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    -  Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Hi Apple friends, my question is regarding, the last iOS 6.1 upgrade, why it include the LTE 4G to the iPad4 and iPad Mini with Telcel in Mexcio, and Why it was not for the iPhone 5?, when Apple will enable this feature LTE 4G on the Iphone5 to Telcel?

    Hi Apple friends, my question is regarding, the last iOS 6.1 upgrade, why it include the LTE 4G to the iPad4 and iPad Mini with Telcel in Mexcio, and Why it was not for the iPhone 5?, when Apple will enable this feature LTE 4G on the Iphone5 to Telcel?

    And Apple won't tell you. All they will tell you is what countries are supported for LTE right now. You can express your interest to Apple via their feedback pages, if you wish:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
    but you will not receive a reply. It may be waiting on Telcel to approve. They may not feel that their LTE network is robust enough to handle that much load yet. But I'm just guessing. We'll just have to wait and see what develops.

  • HT201335 Since I updated iOS on my iphon4s and iPad mini i cant get mirroring to work via vga cable

    Since I updated iOS on my iphon4s and iPad mini i cant get mirroring via my vga-cabel to my smartboard projector to word anymore. I used to be able to swipe right twice to chose mirroring via my Apple cable. Why doesn't it work anymore?
    All the threads I can find on the subject talks about using appletv but I need to connect via cable! It used to work (before ios7).
    Sincerely Bent F

    The article from which the issue was posted clearly explains how to access AirPlay in iOS7.
    Granted, what is being attempted has nothing to do with AirPlay or Mirroring.
    The feature that you're looking for is in Control Center... assuming the cable actually works.  If it does not work, the feature will not be accessible.
