  • IPad locked after trying to upgrade to IOs 8

    Have iPad 2 and tried to update OS fro 6.x to 8.x through iTunes.  Downloaded fine and began to install.  Asked for passcode for iPad which I put in.  Grey screen came up with Apple icon and progress bar.  Progress went to about 95% and a box came up saying iTunes could not connect to iPad because needed passcode.  Only options were more info, cancel or try again.  There was no place to put in a pass code again.  Tried "try again" but nothing happened.  Now, the same screen is up with apple icon and progress bar at 95% but I can't do anything.  Tried shutting off iPad but even after holding on/off button for 5 minutes, nothing other then the grey screen with progress bar.  Looked up this issue and all "fixes" begin with shutting down the iPad, which I cannot do.  Need help ASAP as battery on iPad will drain.  As of now, iPad unusable.  Thanks.

    Update to above:  was able to finally shut iPad off by pressing both the home button and the on/off button together.  When I then push the on/off button for a few seconds, the black screen with the Apple icon comes up followed by a blank screen with "slide to upgrade" at the bottom of the screen.  When I "slide" that, the next screen is number pad to put in the password.  When I do that, the grey screen with the Apple icon and the progress bar comes up and the progress bar moves to about 95% whether the iPad is connected to my iTunes or not.  If connected to my iTunes, I get the same box saying "iTunes could not connect to the iPad “D’s iPad” because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the iPad before it can be used with iTunes." It gives three options again:  More Info, Cancel, Try again.  If I hit try again, the box disappears and comes up again.  Is there any way to remove the passcode at this time.  After this problem, I tried upgrading my wife's iPad, but turned off the passcode first.  Everything went fine.  Seems the passcode is the issue or???. Anyone have any helpful ideas??  Thanks

  • I lost all of my information after trying to upgrade to iOS 5

    Hello.
    i have ipod touch 4th gen, 32 GB.
    just tried upgrading to iOS 5.
    first had issues with downloading. finally managed to download.
    now i does not let me restore my information after installing iOS 5.
    first it tells me "10 minutes remaining". then the time goes up and up. after it reaches 10 hours, error messege pops "iTunes could not restore because backup could not be saved on this computer":
    http://i.imgur.com/FLLd0.png
    same thing happens when i restore to default, and then try to restore again from my backup.
    i am frastrated. i have a serious headache. 5 hours of trying to upgrade. i really want to CRY (really).
    i REALLY need ALL of my information. including contacts, calendar and internal information of application i bought (like 2Do, awesome note etc.). i can not afford myself losing all of this information. i have no other backup. this information worth more then 5k $ to me.
    what can i do? i need HELP.
    only thing it let me restore is my music.

    Try moving the existing backup file to a safe location so that iTunes has to create an entire new file. If you get a successfull backup you can delete the moved backup.  The backup is located:
    iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
    Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Note: If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files (Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7), or iTunes may not be installed in the default location. Show hidden files and then search the hard drive for the Backup directory.

  • My ipad froze after a failed upgrade to IOS6.

    I was trying to upgrade my iPad 3 to IOS6 via iTunes, and it failed and has frozen my iPad.
    It has the iTunes screen with a USB cord, but my iTunes doesn't recognize it. I've tried restarting both iPad & the PC, but nothing seems to unfreeze the iPad.
    Any suggestions???
    Thanks,
    Alisa

    Do you have to restore your iPhone again? You could try uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes. You could also try checking out this link.

  • Can't restore after trying to upgrade to iOS 4.0.1

    I tried installing the 4.0.1 update but it stopped downloading when the bar was about 70% full. Eventually I decided to disconnect the phone, knowing that I would have to restore. However, while trying to restore, it stopped again at about 70% full.
    I have updated to the newest iTunes
    I restarted my computer
    I changed the USB cord
    But nothing happens. All it says is "restoring iPhone software", yet it has completely stopped syncing

    Error 14 is not a USB problem, but a CRC problem of OS image.
    Image is corrupted.
    Delete it (.ipsw) and it will worked well

  • After the recent upgrade to ios 8 ipad air has no audio coming out

    HI
    After the recent upgrade to ios 8 ipad air has no audio coming out

    I had the same problem until tonight. Played with ring tones, do not disturb, volume, and everything else posted. What I found is that when you go to sounds/text tone, there are two types of tones in the scrolling menu. The top set of tones are for alert tones and the bottom set are ringtones. They are separated by a gray bar that states their purpose. Many of the tones are the same name. You need to set your text alert in the Ringtones and reminders, alarms, and such in alerts. The weird thing about this menu is when you go to sounds/ringtone the menu is reversed. Mine works in locked mode or unlocked now. I have an Iphone 6 8.1.2. My problem started after my latest OS upgrade. Hope this helps.

    I have an ipad 2, MC769x it is running 4.3.3 (8j2) i have been trying to upgrade to ios 5 or higher but a) I don't have a software update option on my Settings / General screen. And b) when I go into itunes I don't get tihe options suggested on the forums. I really want to upgrade my ipad as I want to buy and install some apps that are only available from ios5 onwards. I have been a big apple fan but I am now wondering if my ipad2 was a mistake.
