Ipad disabled after upgrading to IOS7.

I called Apple support. The tech stated he had the same problem himself.
He tried to have me restore my ipad from the backup on my MAC. This resulted in an error message stating my device did not have authority to be restored. The tech put me on hold to research further and Apple dropped my call. I'm hoping the Genius Bar guys have an answer which is where I'm heading next.

Any experiences about troubles with ipad 2 after upgraded to IOS7?

Hello everyone! I've read in several blogs and websites warnings about possible problems or slowdowns of IPAD2 after the upgrade to IOS7. Has anybody decided to "challenge" these warnings? If yes, have you have any problems or is everything going ok?
Thanks!

I upgraded to ios7 on my ipad2 (Model MC773LL/A) and was very happy with it despite some minor quirks until the 7.0.2 update. Since then, I can't use the home button. It worked just fine and I was even able to make it work after a couple of resets, but as soon as I open the first app, it no longer works. Since the 7.0.3 update which I expected to fix the problem, I can't even get the home button to work after a reset. This iPad2 is pristine and had been cocooned in my Griffen rubberized case since the day it was unboxed. (yes, I took it out of the case since to make sure it wasn't the cause)
While I can use all the other tricks such as assisted touch or gestures, it just ticks me off that the home button doesn't work any longer. Since I am out of warranty, I don't want to waste my time waiting on line to get them to fix something they broke and being asked to pay for it. The button worked fine until the iOS7 upgrade and there is no reason why it shouldn't work today.
My iPad Mini (Model MD528LL/A) appears to be working just fine with iOS 7.0.2, though a bit slower than when it was 6.1.3. However, it seems that since 7.0.3 broke my iPad2 further, I am hesitant to even consider blowing up my iPad Mini as well. My iPhone 5 is working really well on iOS 7.0.3...thank goodness.
I agree with the many comments about the loss of Steve Jobs... Tim, you better get these thing straightened out or that iPhone 5 will be the last Apple product I purchase. Kwon Oh Yun and Risto Siilasmaa are looking pretty innovative these days!

Lost ipad sound after upgrading to ios7

As soon as I click the iOS7 upgrade my ipad volume is gone

First thing to try if you have no sound at all, even in the Music App, try rebooting the iPad.
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.
If you lost sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the control center. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to control center . Tap on the bell icon and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock can be accessed in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

Still no luck - try cleaning the dock connector opening of the iPad with a soft brush and just a little bit of rubbing alcohol.
If that fails, then try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings. No data will be lost but all device settings have to be entered again.
Should you still have no sound after trying all of these steps, restoring the iOS software would be the next thing to try.

They are not text messages, they are iMessages.
Turn on iMessage on the iPhone.

After upgrading to IOS7 my Ipad turns automatically the screen to vertical in some programmes. You cannot get to turn back. How to solve it, I like to keep it horizontal at all times

After upgrading to IOS7 the Ipad turns the screen automatically from horizontal to vertical when using some applications (i.e. Twitter or Safari). If you shake it it will just stay vertical. How to change that to horizontal. I do not ant to turn the screen al the time.

I have found the solution. With the little buton on the side of the IPAD you can change so it stays horizontal or vertical.

Problems after upgrading to IOS7 on IPad

Can't login to imessages or facetime after upgrade to IOS7 everything else seems to work but IMessages and Facetime won't accept password

I didn't have to log In again. It was already set up just like it was before I updated to iOS 7. Did you turn Messages and FaceTime off before you updated?

IPad2 unusable after upgrade to ios7 because of keyboard lag

I have a 5-10 second lag after typing any character on my iPad after upgrading to ios7. I've reset it. I've restored it. I've turned off iCloud for data and documents. None of this has solved the problem. Any other ideas? It's impossible to use for anything that requires the keyboard.

Perhaps I did not make myself clear, my apologies for that.
The cover does put it to sleep and wakes it up (as evidenced by the clicking sound), but when it wakes, the screen lock does NOT engage. You know that first screen where it shows the clock real big at the top center and at the bottom center it says to slide to the right? That is the screen that does not work.
That screen will come up if I manually put it to sleep and wake it with the top button, but auto-lock feature is not working.

Airplay after upgrade to iOS7

My ipad Air Play won't find either of my printers--HP and Epson--both of which are listed as suitable, after upgrade to iOS7. I have tried all the suggestions from the community and Apple. Non have worked. iOS6 was fine for both makes.There must be a bug in iOS7.Please fix it!

BPpark,
Thank you so much for posting the solution although the question has to be asked, why would Apple make such a major change to the OS without making people aware of how to use it? Or should I have trawled through the T's and C's and all the other BS that came onscreen prior to installing iOS 7?
I have a Macbook Pro so was always able to stream my music but lost the convienience of being able to use my iPad or iPhone to control my library from downstairs.
Thanks again m8.

Syncing Reminders on iPad 2 after upgrade to iOS6

I can't seem to get the reminders on my iPad to sync with my desktop and iPhone after upgrading to iOS6. I've tried the suggestions on the support community but they do not address the problem. The iPhone and desktop are synced but the iPad is not.

Thanks for your reply. The "No SIM" icon appeared right after I upgraded to iOS7. I followed the instructions about resetting the iPad, turning airplane mode on and off, resetting the SIM card. None of this helped, so I went to the Apple store, where they tried all of the above, and even installed a new SIM card. They decided it was a bad SIM card slot. I contacted the Apple hot line and talked with the for an hour and fifteen minutes. After resetting the iPad back to its original factory settings and bringing back up, they cam to the same conclusion: bad so card slot.
Pardon my cynicism, but it seems strange that so many early iPad and iPhone owners would have the same hard ware problem right after upgrading o iOS7.
Does anyone know if Apple is working on a software fix, or is this a plot to get us to buy new iPads?

After upgrading to ios7 unable to connect iCloud server!!

After upgrading to ios7 unable to connect iCloud server!!

The same thing is happening here with my 16 GB wifi only iPad 2, and this is my first update in perhaps a year. The IOS7 update makes it to "Updating iCloud settings..." and goes no further. After a while the install fails (I guess) and I have to start over. Always ends the same way, black screen, nothing happening. Start over, same result. BTW I DO NOT USE iCLOUD ANYWAY
Apple please help!

News feeds stop at a certain point in fb after upgrading to ios7!

News feeds stop after an hour or two of news in fb after upgrading to ios7 on an iPad 2! Just get a little gray dot at the bottom of the feed shows up and nothing loads after that point.

I've honestly found the best way to access facebook on the iPad is through safari. The app is buggy at best.

After upgrading to ios7 can't play an audiobook with the music app.

After upgrading to ios7 I have been unable to play an audiobook from the Music app. I am also not getting a clean sych. The ipad goes through the sych steps through step 8, but just continues to sit waiting to apply changes.Any idea as to what the problem might be? Can I reload ios7?

Try this - 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 is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
 Cheers, Tom
