IPad (3rd gen) stuck on iOS 6 beta 4. Can't restore or update to public release?

I updated my iPhone 4S to iOS 6 just fine, although it wasn't on the beta. My iPad on the other hand... When I check for the update OTA and when it's plugged into my computer, both say it's up to date. When I try to restore it I get "There was a problem downloading the software for the iPad. The requested resource was not found".
Anyone having the same problem? Or better yet, does anyone have a solution?
Thanks.

Just put your iPad into DFU mode - hold power and home until Apple logo appears. Let go of the power button but continue to hold the home button for 10 seconds, or until the USB cord image appears. This is DFU mode.
Now select restore and iTunes will be able to download the GM.

  • Unable to use iCloud Backup on iPad (3rd gen) Wi-Fi, iOS 6.0.1

    Hi, I have been unable to use iCloud Backup for several weeks on both my iPad (3rd gen) Wi-Fi, iOS 6.0.1 & my iPhone 4, iOS 6.0.1
    iCloud Backup is set to On on both devices. It did backup once or twice, since I installed the iOS 6.0.1, then it stopped working altogether.
    I hope someone can help me.

    I know. In my post I said ....
    "remove the all day event or change the event from all day - in whatever application on your computer that you sync the calendar from and them sync again to remove the event from the iPad calendar."
    You will need to do this from your computer. If you do not use your computer to sync with iTunes, you will not be able to get around this.
    However, I should have asked of this only happens when you are trying to view events in March, so maybe I misled you. I apologize. Try this now. Quit the calendar app completely in the recents tray and reboot the iPad.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • IPod Nano 3rd gen 8GB does not show music library, can't restore in osx.3.9

    I have two problems: Although, I can see mu iPod's music library when I plug in it into my ancient laptop (iBook G4 10.3.9), the library doesn't display on the iPod once it's disconnected, meaning I can't play any songs on the iPod proper). I've done everything that the Apple website recommends for troubleshooting my Nani 3rd generation, including attempting to reset it repeatedly. I've now saved the songs elsewhere, and I'm prepared to restore it, but I can't seem to find a way to reset it in iTunes 4 (apparently the latest version of iTunes that will work on this computer). Am I missing something? What should I do? Any help would be much appreciated.
    Best,
    Diane

    Hey there,
    If your iPod is a 3rd generation nano, it will not work with anything below 10.4 as outlined in this Apple support document. That could be the underlying problem. Hope this helped.

  • Will siri be on iPad 3rd gen in iOS 7?

    It shows that Siri will be available on iPad with retina display and iPad mini but it doesn't show the iPad 3rd gen. In iOS 6 the iPad 3 had Siri but would they take it away in iOS 7? 

    If Siri is in iOS 6 in the 3rd generation iPad, it will still be in iOS 7. 3rd and 4th generation iPads are iPads with Retina displays

  • A FaceTime call on iPad 3rd gen reboot the device

    Not happens in every call but perhaps in a 4/10 calls proportion.
    I've Ipad 3rd gen, with latest iOS in it. I often receive and made calls from my family (almost 1 call a day) and I can test the behaviour in a great detail.
    The crash makes the iPad reboot. Not any other flaw. This only happen in FaceTime and not in all calls. But it leads to confusion and honestly: We don't pay a  600 bucks device that can't handle a videoconference call.
    This must be solved...fast. Or people (like me) will move to other solutions (skype, g+ hangouts...etc)

    Thanks for the info, however the correct url is:

  • IPad (3rd Gen) activation server unavailable

    Morning all,
    used my iPad 3rd Gen 3G (running iOS 6 GM Seed) happily yesterday night, loaded the battery overnight, and now, on 01 Oct 06:00 AM GMT i have it locked down, saying it needs activation. Proceeding through the mandatory steps ends up with a "activation servers unavailable" message (internet connectivity is fine). I retried it now for about an hour. The iPad is now unusable , rebooted it / hooked up to my Mac / iTunes etc  - won't help.
    Anyone else seeing this?
    thanks

    Following ultimately helped me : Make sure that you are logged in at the App Store App or iTunes App with your apple ID and password with a US account. Turn your iPad off and on and than you should see the Radio button again. It won't work if you are logged on with a foreign account. If you are not logged in at all, it worked, too.

  • Why can't I see reviews for app updates on iPad 3rd gen since iOS 7 update?

    Why can't I see reviews for app updates on iPad 3rd gen since iOS 7 update?

    AAfter an hour with Apple chat, I figured out what to do on my own.  When the iPhone and iPad go to autolock, press home key and do not open- streaming will be on the screen and I turned it back on.  No more stops.

    Hi thanks for the encouragement.  It's not that the severs are "swamped", iOS 7 has been successfully installed.
    I can't access the apps list in iTunes because it *****
    down.  Its pretty frustrating because many of my apps require me to manually transfer files into iTunes first to view
    them.  Not sure if the servers being swamped is an issue for me, unless they release a bug fix through another version of iTunes.
    Has anyone else had this problem?  My iPad is pretty useless unless I can access my app list in iTunes....

  • Ipad 3rd gen shows blank screen when connecting to projector via HDMI AV adapter.  I have an ipad 2 that works perfectly.  Projector is a Dukane ImagePro 8106HA.  Only difference I see is that the ipad 3 owner has not updated to IOS 6. Any thoughts?

  • Safari issues, iPad 3rd gen iOS 5,1,1

    Right, I bought an iPad 3rd gen and I've been having to reset it 2-3 times daily because of this issue.
    When generally surfing the web, doesnt matter what sites it seems, safari just decides.
    I'm not going to load the link you just clicked on :P
    The site address changes, a small portion of the progress bar turns blue and nothing. It just freezes.
    Nothing I've tried (clearing all caches etc) makes any difference, except a reset. Quite annoying.
    I had no such issues on my iPad 2.
    This issue doesnt appear to be limited to safari though. I've had problems with lovefilm and my speed test app as well so I'm guessing its a general wifi problem.
    After safari froze I decided to check the speed of my connection. It didn't come back with a ping, I waited 10 mins still nothing.
    At the same time my iPhone (4s) with the same app came back with a ping of  30ms and d/l speed of 15MB/s.
    I'm now confused as to whether this is a software or hardware issue.
    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Swingflaps-
    One thing you can try is to reset (reboot) your iPad.  Hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow.  The iPad will restart after a couple of minutes.  Resetting this way will not hurt anything, and sometimes clears up mysterious problems.
