Ipad air 2 locked with passcode message when connected to iTunes (mac), but it is unlocked

When I connect my new iPad air 2 via lightning cable to my Mac I get the message to unlock my iPad air 2 in order to connect, download photos, etc.
But my iPad air 2 is unlocked and displaying the home screen. I have tried switching USB ports, restarting the iPad air 2 and resetting by holding the power & home button down, but neither of these fixes the issue. Any suggestions?

Yes, but I was able to fix the problem by restarting my Mac. Guess I should have tried that first
Thanks for the quick response.

Error message when connecting to iTunes says my new iPad 4 can't be connected as it requires version 10.7 or later. Surely a new iPad already has the latest version, and if it doesn't how do I get it?

Not the iPad - your computer must be running iTunes 10.7 in order to sync. It has nothing to do with iTunes on the iPad.
You can download iTunes for your computer here.

Whilst synching to my PC it said there was a software update for the iPhone. It is now stuck with a message saying connect to iTunes. I've tried resetting it in various ways but it still comes back to Connect to iTunes, but it won't. Help!

You may need to try this More than Once...
But... if the Device has been Modified... this will Not necessarily work.

When try to update apps, put my password in it comes up with error message, cannot connect to iTunes store? Same for new apps too?

I have tried to correct error message by updating iPad, iTunes and security but still get same message "cannot connect to iTunes store?

it only happens for previous purchases - if you have a computer you can try to download your purchase history there and then just sync them to your device - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1386.

Error message when connecting to Itunes

I have uninstalled and reinstalled twice now.
Its an Ipod Touch 8GB with front and back camera.
Thanks

If pic doesnt work it says
"This Ipod cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the Itunes installer to remove Itunes, then install Itunes again."

When turming on my ipad it comes up with passcode, which when i put it in it wont accept it. i have tryed switching of and back on and it makes no differense. the only thing i done was i put voiceover on and then tryed to switch it off and this happened.

when turning my ipad on it comes up with passcode, when i try to enter it it wont accept. so i cannot get any further. the only thing i did was i was just messing and i turned on voiceover, then i tryed to turn it of and it wouldnt let me. i have tryed turning the ipad of and then turning it back on and that didnt work either. please help ....

It's hard to see exactly how just turning voiceover on would have created a passcode, but regardless of that ... if you can't get it sorted so that you can enter whatever the code is, you're going to have to resort to Restoring the iPad from the computer it was last sync'ed to.

I have found a lost ipad wifi only, locked with passcode ... what now ?

i have found an ipad and i would like to help find the owner but the ipad is locked with a passcode so i cannot connect it to the internet so that owner can find it on find my ipad i have uploaded a pic of the back of the device with the serial number, i have also reported this to the local authorities
<Edited By Host>

The best thing to do is to turn it in to your local police. Should the owner have reported the iPad as stolen, you could be liable if you hold onto the iPad. If the police have refused to accept the device - and I'd insist on that in writing if they have so you're covered in case of any legal issues - there's not much you can do. Even if the owner registered the device with Apple, Apple will not give you any of the owner's information. Normally Apple won't make any attempts to contact the owner themselves, though you can contact Apple anyway and ask.
Regards.

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.

[Edit]Problem with Zen Micro when connected to PC-- cleared but another prob

Hello,
My problem is that my Computer (winxp, sp2) does not identify my zen micro any longer. few days ago it worked perfectly but now it doesnt work.
my zen micro has the firmware with the MTP/plays for sure
I had installed the things from the cd, when I bought it, that was in the package and then new drivers and the new applications, so two programs. (I had two Zen Micro symbols on my desktop but I could only use the program with MTP)
it worked fine.
a few weeks ago I had the same problem, but after a few connectings and disconnectings it worked again.
today this doesnt helped. I uninstalled everything what had to do with creative and then only installed new drivers and the newest applications (without the things from the cd).
it still doesnt work.
when I click on the "Zen Micro Media Explorer (MTP)" on the desktop I can see that my zen micro is connected. When I go to my playlists and click on one, it seems that my playlist is "empty". but in the mp3-player there is the playlist!
when I click on my music folder, where all the music is I see the folders, but when I go into the folders, the folders are also "empty".
what happened? I changed the usb ports--> doesnt work...
what can I do in order to use my zen micro again on the pc. my zen micro works fine(playlists and songs work normally), but I have problems having connected it to my pc... I cannot copy songs and edit my playlists anymore. is there any way to edit the playlists via mp3-player without connecting to the pc?
I hope you have a helping answer for me.
Regards
eX
by the way: new forums look good Message Edited by expredator on 02-07-2005 09:22 PMMessage Edited by expredator on 02-08-2005 0:57 PM

ok guys, I almost solved the problem. I used the rescue mode, used clean up, and now the folders are not empty and I can copy songs into my Zen Micro.
But the playlists are "empty". Also when I want to create a new playlist it says that my mp3-player is not connected ?! But it is! I can copy files into it!
I also cannot synchronize it with WMP0.
I reinstalled software and it didnt help...
So what can I do? It is connected but I cannot edit my playlists.
Is there any way to edit the playlists via the mp3-player and not over the pc?Message Edited by expredator on 02-08-2005 :00 PM

Getting this weird message when connecting to itunes w/my 5th G Ipod Video

Hi was wondering if anyone has encountered this. I just purchased this ned 5G Ipod video connected to my itunes 7.0.1 and worked fine. While I am downloading video podcasts I got this error saying that Itunes has detected and ipod in recovery mode and that I have to restore before I can use Itunes. I did and it reset and I still get the same error message. I tried the 5RS and they do not seem to work either. Any ideas?

Already did at least 5 times.I also folowed the video link you sent me (thank you) and noticed that instructions are different for windows OS!! For windows I am actually instructed to keep the ipod connected until it shows up on itunes. This is when I get the same error I got prior to restoring (ipod in recovery mode). When I press ok it says do not disconnect on the Ipod display.
BTW I cannot see my ipod in my computer either.

When connected to my Mac my iPad says "not charging", but it does seem to sync. What am I doing wrong?

My iPad says "not charging" when connected to my Mac, but it does seemo sync. What am I missing?

A lot of computers (especially older ones) generally do not provide enough power to their USB ports to charge the iPad at a sufficient rate - it may still be charging slowly, and should be a bit quicker if the iPad's screen is off (if you leave it for a while and then disconnect it from your computer you may find that it's battery percentage has gone up). The wall charger is usually the most efficient way to charge the iPad.
