           2. About Restrictions (parental controls) on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.
If none of the above work for you, then:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
   1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
       other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
   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. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
       let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
       charge, and then start with step 2 again.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
       When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

My ipad Air disabled

My ipad air got disabled while the laptop I was using to update and restore went off half way, anyone has similar experience? I need help urgently, can anyone tell me what to do please, no Apple store around here.

Is the problem when installing the iOS update, or when trying to restore to your backup ? If the latter then have you tried only doing the updates without restoring to the backup - do you have a different computer that you could try resetting and updating the iPad on ? If that works you could then try restoring to the backup on the computer that you are currently using.
If you have got another computer to try updating on, then take a copy of the iPad's backup directory on the current computer, just in case your iTunes tries to overwrite it when you reconnect to it :
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
         The "~" represents your Home folder. If you don't see Library in your Home folder, hold Option and click the Go menu.
Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
          To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata%, then press Return.
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
          To quickly access the Application Data folder, click Start, then choose Run. In the search bar, type %appdata%, then click OK.

IPad air disabled wrong password

Ipad Air disabled and will not restore to factory settings.

Hi Guys,
I recently had my ipad disabled by my little brother. He didn't know the password and kept going until he was completely locked out of it. I am familiar with restoring the device as it has happened once before.
That time it all went smoothly. However now I cant seem to get past the updates. Every time I try to restore the device it begins to update and then fails an hour into the process. It's so bloody frustrating.
Is there any particular reason why this update keeps failing or anyone know how I can restore without updating??
If it helps I receive a message of an "unknown error -39" which keeps appearing.
All help will be greatly appreciated as I have important projects on this thing

I do not know that that particular code means, but many times, antivirus software and USB connections can have a negative impact on restoring with iTunes.
My suggestion would be to quit iTunes, restart both devices, disable your firewall and antivirus software, and use another USB a port if you have one to use.

4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER
6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...
Note:
1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.
3. Repeat the process if necessary.

IPad Air's Wireless Disabled after upgrade to iOS 8.1.2

Guys.. anyone of you encountered that once your ipad air upgraded to iOS 8.1.2, the wireless is disabled and you can't enable it back????? i'm having this issue and now my ipad air can't use wireless. i have done everything including restoration at itunes and ipad reset to all are not helping...!!!! i really need a solution..

If Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings doesn't cure the problem you likely have a hardware problem. Visit an Apple Store for an evaluation or contact Apple: http://www.apple.com/contact/
This probably has nothing to do with iOS 8.1.2

IPad Air says iPad is disabled connect to iTunes and STILL not able to use it. VERY UNHAPPY

After uploading IOS8 on 9-17-14 my iPad Air says "iPad is disabled, connect to iTunes.". I have followed all the suggestions from Apple and tried to erase my iPad, but I am VERY UNHAPPY as none of these have resolved the problem. Apple, please provide the support when you have new downloads...

Apple are not involved in tracking/locating stolen or lost devices. Have you reported it to the police ?
Did you have Find My iPad enabled in Settings > iCloud ? If you did and you had iOS 7 installed on it then it should be harder to remove from your account, and the police could try locating it via http://www.icloud.com

Can iPad Air sleep when cover closed be disabled?

An advertised feature of the function of the iPad Air is to automatically enter sleep when the Smart Cover is closed. My wife tends to start listening to a YouTube movie in bed and then closes the cover of her original iPad so that the display goes out and continues to listen to the audio. I'm considering getting her a new iPad Air, but wonder if the auto-sleep feature will interfere with how she is used to doing things. Can the auto-sleep feature be disabled? Can it be made to only affect the display and still allow audio streaming to continue? Apologies if I am just behind the times -- we currently have no iOS7-capable devices.

The Auto Lock can be turned off, but it will not put the screen to sleep. You can cover the iPad and the video will continue to play, but the screen will not turn black and go into sleep mode. You will simply be covering the screen.
When you put the iPad to sleep, YouTube Videos will quit playing. You can no longer play YouTube Videos in the background in iOS 7.

You can't unlock it without losing data. It's too late for that now. You totally erase the iPad when you unlock it and you will have to start all over again. Most of your purchased content can be downloaded again.

The app is saying that a cellular 3G or 4G connection is not good enough for video. Connect your iPad to a WiFi connection rather than cellular to use video in this app.

Disabled ipad air

my iPad air is disabled after entering wrong password in too many times. i tried connecting it to iTunes but the iPad is not syncing because it says i need to enter in the passcode. how do i 1) save the pics on the iPad 2) re-enable the ipad/reset the passcode?
thanks!

Hey frances122,
Thanks for the question. The following resource provides troubleshooting information if you are having issues with your passcode:
iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer
If you see one of following alerts, you need to erase the device:
"iTunes could not connect to the [device] because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the [device] before it can be used with iTunes."
"You haven't chosen to have [device] trust this computer"
If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
Alternatively, place the device in recovery mode and restore it to erase the device:
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
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 shut down.
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.
5. iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.
Thanks,
Matt M.
