Intalling 4.3 completely restored my ipad
Is there a way to retrieve all my previous app store purchases from Apple?...
Installing 4.3 completely restored my iPad 1 and I'm freaking as there were lots of aps I had bought... and they're all GONE!
Hi,
Connect your iPad to your computer. Launch iTunes. Select the Apps tab in the menu. Click the Sync button bottom right side of the iTunes window.
You can view your apps under Library on the left side of the iTunes window.
Good idea to create a backup for your iPad, help at this link.

hi i rescently updated my ipad 4 in ios 7.0.4 and for resell purpose i want to restore my ipad via itunes but it got stuck at apple logo and progress bar of 45% completed i tried it 50 times but it stuck on that exact point for hours i cant able to restore it and had no errors it just like freezes at one point i also uses dfu mode but got stuck at same problem using windows 7 32 bits itunes 11.3.8 ipad 4 wifi please help
My iPhone 5 wouldn't start after I turned it off a few minutes after writing this. It went into recovery mode and I had no choice but to connect to iTunes on PC and restore.
I restored to factory setting first, just to validate my phone was okay. For a second consecutive iOS update, the iPhone 5 did not update smoothly while connected to PC and iTunes - I had to retry two times before the progress bar for the update showed. (The exact same problem with the restart occured when I updated to 7.0.4.)
The good news is that I was ultimately able to restore the iPhone 5 to factory settings while running iOS 7.0.6. I did have a backup from about a month ago lying around and was able to successfully restore with that as well, so the damage done is almost negligible since I had my contacts, notes, mail, etc. backed up to iCloud.
Once I completed both restores, the sync with iTunes worked fine. -
I don't know if I'm repeating my question. I can't restore my ipad after updating to latest ios. The battery went low, I had to eject and plug in to charge. The set up will not complete without resoring from icloud or itunes (i backed up to computer using itunes) or setting up the ipad as a New ipad. I want to restore all my stuff but the message I get in itune says "Find my ipad must be turned off before 'ipad' can be restored". Go to icloud settings on your ipad and turn off Find My iPad before restoring your iPad.". I cant' get to this setting on my ipad because the set up is not complete!!! I'm stuck. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm afraid if I set up the ipad as new it will backup the new ipad over my previous backup and then I will loose all my photos, songs, aps, notes,......
I have the same problem and we can't simply just restore from the backup. It says that I have to set up my iPad through restoring. So I tried restoring it in iTunes but it won't restore until I have to turn off this **** "Find My iPad" crap but I couldn't because the set up's not complete and it won't let me go to my settings unless I set it up. So basically it's asking me to go to my settings but before I could go to it I have to restore, and in order to restore I have to go to settings. Get where I'm at?
Please, Apple Tech people! Help this 14 year old girl on her period, PMS-ing, thinking about how I want to strangle however made this mistake of a set up, updating her iPad in 3 am in the morning cursing the day she even thought of updating. I seriously need to get out of this loophole. I don't want to use my other iPad that only has 16GB. I just wanted the pretty graphics I saw in my parent's iPad airs, I don't ask for anything more :''''( -
Just updated to ios5 iCloud and iPad completely restored. Do I have to pay for the apps I did buy previously or can they be restored? I do not want buy them again!
In iTunes (after signing in) click on STORE>iTunes Store on the left side. Then click on App Store, then on the right side you will see APP STORE QUICK LINKS. Click on Purchased and you will be able to download anything you have purchased before.

My WiFi on my iPad has been getting poorer recently, and two days ago stopped working completely. I have reset the network settings, and when that didn't work I restored my iPad. I still cannot find or access WiFi networks, and if I do, it fails. Help!!

I am so disappointed. It is very hard to use an iPad that does not work horizontally.
I did a 'reset'
I did a complete restore
I't definitely started when I installed the IOS 6.
I tried to instal the 6.01 but I'd did not correct it
Please helpThe accelerometer is a physical component that allows your device to detect and respond to movement. If there is something physically wrong with this component, it won't be able to be fixed by any software update/restart etc.
If your iPad is still within the warranty period, contact Apple and I'm sure they will be happy to help you out. Otherwise you could still inquire with them about repairing it.
This is just my gut feeling based on your description. You should first perform the following steps and then contact Apple if you still have no joy:
1. Kill all running apps (double tap home button and hit the red close button on each app)
2. turn off your device (and turn back on)
3. hold down power button at same time as home button until apple logo appears (a 'hard reset')
4. if it's still not happening for you, backup everything on your device by plugging it into iTunes or syncing with iCloud and then do a restore. This will rule out a software issue.
Of course it appears you have already performed the above steps so it looks like a heardware issue.

Complete restore iPAd 2 icloud
My friend in Montreal did a iOS Update and now it will not boot up no more
She did have a iCloud backup at sometime,
How can she delete what ever is on her iPad 2 and do a complete restore? pleaseYes, we did a hard rest
And all it does, the Apple logo shows up and that is it
Now when she connects it to her PC laptop
She gets this saying
iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
So, I thought that the iPad was capable of repairing itself by iCloud,
THANK YOU FOR BEING THERE FOR ME. -
I was in the process of restoring my ipad and an issue came up with itunes and it had to close. I reopened itunes but now my computer doesn't recognize the ipad as anything plugged in to my computer. I am unable to complete the restore process.

Please help, I an unable to update any apps on my ipad through the App Store. It will not connect. Also, I am no longer able to log in to bingo bash app and my towers app will not connect either. If I restore my ipad will that fix the problem and if so, will my apps return to levels I am currently on? Ex. Level 346 in candy crush or will I have to start it all over? It worked fine until we left a week ago for vacation and would not work on hotel wifi. Did not work when we returned home.

It still could be cable or contacts in the iPod since different contacts/conductor are used for charging and data -
My ipad freezed even after a complete restore
I am having issues of my i-pad freezing or getting a blank screen while using it. We have done a complete restoration of the system and the problem still persists. Any suggestions?
Did you restore as new and start all over again adding your content in bits and pieces? If you restored as new and than restored from a backup, the backup might be corrupt and that could be causing your problems.

I have tried many times to restore my ipad to factory settings with no luck. It does not get through the whole process and gives an error code of 3194 cannot restore. It then directs me to a website that does not help and is very hard to get rid of. I am ready to send my ipad back and get a new one. Is there any solution to saving my current model?

When I tried to update my iPad I got an error 9. Now, I am unable to access my iPad. It is in a continuous cycle when I try to update or restore the iPad 2. Plug in to iTunes 12.0.1 (latest version). Click update, told can't update, have to restore. Restore fails with error 9. Any help appreciated.
Here's the cycle:
I plug in my iPad when “cable to iTunes shows on iPad screen. It says "Your iPad can't be updated, you must restore it to factory settings." That bad enough news, but it gets worse.
Click Restore
Extracting software…
Preparing iPad for restore
Waiting for iPad…
Verifying iPad restore with Apple…
(empty bar under the Apple logo…does not show any activity)
“The iPad “iPad” could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (9).”
Notes: I just upgraded to OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 on my iMac (27-inch, Mid 2011) in the last week. It’s the first time I’m tried to backup/update my iPad since the iMac update.
I swapped out the USB cable to a new cable and get the same results.
I also unplugged all other USB devices from the iMac and security on my iPad and still get the same results.
I find it strange that it shows no Serial number for my my iPad 2 when plugged in. It shows “Serial Number: n/a on the screen when it displays: “iPad Recovery Mode To update your iPad without erasing its contents, click Update. To restore your iPad to its factory settings, click Restore iPad.
I prefer to update my iPad, but it displays “Your iPad can’t be updated, you must restore it to factory settings. If you previously backed up the iPad, click Restore Backup after the restore process completes.”
It’s a continuous loop. I get the display on my iPad to plug in the iPad to iTunes, plug it in which ends after going through the above procedure saying an error occurred (9).
So now I cannot use my iPad. When I turn it on I get the display showing me to plug it into iTunes with the cable. Since this is the only option I have I plug it in and the loop begins.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks!Hello jaybearden,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like you are not able to restore the iOS device since you get an error 9. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

Went on a Vegas trip on Sept
11th. My iPad worked fine
before getting on the plane. In the hotel about 48hrs later I opened my iPad it
read the message: “iPad is disabled,
connect to iTunes.”
To my knowledge myself, nor anyone else has tried to access my device or
entered the password incorrectly 3 or more times.
I started by updating my iTunes account on my computer to the latest version.
Then multiple times I attempted
the “Use recovery mode”
steps.
e.g.
1. Turn off your device and leave it off.
2. Plug in your device's USB cable to a computer with iTunes.
3. Hold down the Home button on your device as you connect the USB
cable. Keep holding down the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes
screen.
I received the message on my computer saying “iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.”
I click the “Restore iPad” button.
During which time the progress bar on my computer’s iTunes
screen was moving very slowly and other times seemed like it wasn’t moving at
all. I would leave my two devices and attached by the cable and upon returning
I would find that the process would have ended before it had completed.
Initially I thought it was a connections issue because I was in remote
locations with slow internet servers. Since being home I have re-attempted the
process and have been able to fully complete the forced recovery but I will
receive a message saying:
“The iPad could not be restored. The disk you are attempting to use is full.
Removing files and emptying the recycle bin will free up additional space.”
What recycle bin is the message referring to? Obviously I CANNOT access any
data on the iPad itself. Just for the **** of it, I did empty my computers
recycle bin and re-attempted the forced recovery process but as I suspected it
did nothing for the iPad and I still received the same message: “The iPad
could not be restored. The disk you are attempting to …”

How do I restore my iPad to a previous backup made on another computer (Mac)?
How do I restore my iPad to a previous backup made on another computer (a Mac)?
I made copies of the backup in the /mobilesync folder and put them on a hard drive. Now I'm in an endless cycle of restoring/syncing which keeps erasing data off of my iPad on the new computer (which is just a hard drive reformat...it's the same computer, technically, but in theory brand new after a hard drive formatting).
Any help would be greatly appreciated!Normally backups are incremental, and you can only restore the latest. EXCEPT that a backup of an earlier version is archived, and the first backup of the new version is thus complete. You should be able to restore a 6.1.4 backup to iOS 7. Click the Restore Backup button. The dialog that comes up should have a dropdown where you can select a backup to restore. If the old one does not show up it cannot be restored.
However, since you appear to have a Mac, if you use Time Machine you can restore an earlier backup over the current one from your Time Machine history.
You can also back up to iCloud, even if you don't sync to it. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5262
One well hidden feature (for future use) is archiving backups. If you go to iTunes Preferences/Devices, right click on the current backup and choose "Archive". The next backup you make will be a competely new one, and the old one will be preserved and can be restored at any time.
