I-Tunes cannot connect to I-Pad but i forget the I-Pad password. What should i do?

If you've forgotten the passcode then you may need to put the iPad into recovery mode before your computer's iTunes will recognise it : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 - you should then be able to reset the iPad and restore/resync your content to it.
If you do it via a computer that it' not normally synced to then (from here) :
If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.

  • TS3681 I restored my iPad and then i clicked "Restore iTunes backup". It is finished but on the iPad screen it says connect to iTunes. I connected it to iTunes but it says the same thing. What should I do?

    I restored my iPad and then i clicked "Restore iTunes backup". It is finished but on the iPad screen it says connect to iTunes. I connected it to iTunes but it says the same thing. What should I do?

    You are in Recovery Mode. Follow the instructions below to recover your iPad.
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port. (Make sure you have the latest version of iTune on your computer)
    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.
    If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
    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.
    5. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad. Data will be lost.

  • Wifi ipad2 can connect to wifi hotspot but can't browsing with wifi so what should i do?

    sometimes ago i can browsing the internet with wifi, but now i can not browsing with my wifi.( wifi hotspot is the same not change) .
    anyone can help me ?

    Normally i compare to my friend samsang mobile me and my friend both are same place his mobile receiving signal 3point (signal range) but my iphone5s received only 1point(signal range)
    You are posting in the Time Capsule area.. do you have a time capsule?
    If not the question is better to ask in the iphone discussion area.
    We cannot really make much comment on the iphone here as it is an area we specialise in Time Capsule problems.
    If your phone is so poor compared to the samsung it sounds like you are using a non-apple router. Certainly the apple routers can have issues but there are some troubleshooting steps you can do.
    Reset the TC (used for time capsule from now on) to factory, and use all short names, no spaces and pure alphanumeric. Set different names for 2.4ghz and 5ghz.
    So TC name = TC
    2.4ghz name = TC24ghz
    5ghz name = TC5ghz
    Use only wpa2 personal security with 10-20 character pure alphanumeric password.
    Now test by manually setting channels, 11, 6, 1 in that order for 5ghz.
    36, 40, 44 and 149 or greater for 5ghz.
    Force the phone to join 2.4ghz rather than 5ghz for the best range.

  • If iTunes need respond from your phone but you don't remember your password what should you do

    so I can't remember my phone password, right now it says ''Phone is disabled, connect to Itunes''. I tried to reset my phone on Itunes, but I haven't synced my phone to itunes yet. Itunes need respond from my phone, but I can't don't remember my password. So I can't get in to my phone and respond.

    Try recovery mode, as described towards the bottom of this page : iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled.
    If you haven't synced/backed up to your computer's iTunes then do you have an iCloud backup then you can then restore to ? If not then what you can redownload for free will show in the Purchased tabs in the iTunes, App Store and iBooks apps.

  • I cannot connect my I pad mini and iPhone using Bluetooth.

    I cannot connect my I pad mini and iPhone using Bluetooth.

    I'm not sure what made you think that that was not what Regal trail was asking... I am having the same problem and wish that that question had been answered! I believe I've gone through the same steps that used to work, to no avail now. But I'm betting that you (Chris) have the answer to this!
    In a nutshell: I'm trying to share my iPhone's cellular connection with my WiFi-only iPad Mini, using a Bluetooth connection. I used to do this regularly, but went for a period of time without the need for it, and so am hard pressed now to identify which thing that might have changed during the interim would have made it no longer work.
    iPhone is connected to internet via cellular data (AT&T LTE). Bluetooth is on. Personal Hotspot is on.
    On iPad, Bluetooth is on. My iPhone shows up in the list under My Devices, and I can select it, and it will connect for approximately 5 seconds. The shared connection icon shows up on the iPad. The iPhone (on the Bluetooth screen) shows, for those 5 seconds, that the iPad is connected, but the shared connection status bar never shows up on the iPhone.
    After 5 seconds, it disconnects.
    Thoughts? Need more info? Let me know! Thanks.

    Saw this on another post.
    Applecare Senior Advisor Txx Bxxx (I have his contact info in an email he just sent) just confirmed with me that the problem people are having with the App Store not loading is an apple issue with there servers, ITS NOT YOUR IPAD so don't go restoring it!   It's not happening to everyone however but they are looking into it, its really hit or miss.

    Try this first - 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 works for some users. Not sure why.
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

    I cannot connect to iTunes store but all other devices are connecting to wifi and working great in household???

  • Hi, My problem is I cannot connect my apple tv to my account, the user name and password are definitely correct, I upgraded the software, reset the device, but no chance. What should I do?

    Hi, My problem is I cannot connect my apple tv to my account, the user name and password are definitely correct, I upgraded the software, reset the device, but no chance. What should I do?

    Try this:
    Reboot device by pressing both the home button and sleep/wake (power) buttons at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
    If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings  (or for network connection issues 'reset network settings').
    (no media or data will be deleted from the device, this will only take a minute).

    HI again Andy,
    The last message had some more stuff in between the "Hello" and "Regards" - I have no idea what happened to it. But nevermind...
    I started up the Mini with the modem in one usb, and the speaker system in the other (M-Audio Sonica Theatre) - I have one of the Minis that have only 2 USB (and one FireWire) ports. The firewire has the external drive connected to it.
    So far, as I"m typing this, I AM able to be online and use iTunes simultaneously. (both SaFari and iTunes respond slower than if I was using only one or the other, but they ARE actually working - in addition to having Adium running) - So I think what you suggested ( that is was something wonky was the USB hub) was a correct, yet assessment.
    Would you have any reccommendations for USB hubs? The only thing that I have connected to the hub under normal circumstances that would be constantly "running" would be the RadioShark (even though the Radio soft isn't playing - the blue light on the RadioShark is always on) - and the speakers naturally. Everything else is of the occassional variety - iPod Sync Cable, Dual Layer External DVD Burner, and a "pass thu" to the USB ports on my Hard Drive Enclosure (which had been unplugged before the problem was noticed). The hub I current use is the
    Kensington DomeHub USB 2.0 (7 ports) Weighted Hub 33118 http://www.amazon.com/Kensington-DomeHub-ports-Weighted-33118/dp/B0002FHENE/ref= sr16/002-4275642-8664817?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1187848108&sr=8-6
    which (I thought) worked better than the "throwaway" ones I had used previously.
    You think it is the hub or something connected to it that may be causing the problem?
    Regardless, thank you for your time, and I hope to hear from you soon.

  • My iPod 5 can't connect to wifi. It connects to personal hotspots but no to my home wifi. I tried resetting the network settings but no change. I put the right password but it just keeps loading forever. What should I do??

    My iPod 5 can't connect to wifi. It connects to personal hotspots but no to my home wifi. I tried resetting the network settings but no change. I put the right password but it just keeps loading forever. What should I do??

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - 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.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network      
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • I've got a new Apple ID but can not change anything on my phone, my old Apple ID is connected to icloud but is not letting me delete it without a password! But I do not know this password what can I do?

    I've got a new Apple ID but can not change anything on my phone, my old Apple ID is connected to icloud but is not letting me delete it without a password! But I do not know this password what can I do?

    If the old ID is an earlier version of your new ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your new iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  You can now use your new password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.
    Note: this will not work if your new ID is an entirely new ID that was never previously associated with the old email address.
