Ipad locked and can't connect to itune?

i just bought my ipad2 (used and just received it. i didn't have time to sync it with any other computer), and i put a password on it, but 5 min later i couldn't remember it. i tried several passwords but they were wrong. now the ipad is locked. so i read online that i need to connect it to a computer to reset it. so i tried to connect it, but now it says that itune cannot connect to the ipad because it is locked with a code, and that i need to put the code before the ipad can be used with itune.
so anybody have any suggestion on how i can reset or unlock it?
also, i also just bought a apps (navigon for 40$), will i lose this app if i restore it without back up?
(i know that a lot of people already asked this kind of question, but i couldn't find answer where the ipad was locked and at the same time couldn't connect to itune).
tks for any suggestion

Glad you got things going again

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.

HT204406 iTune 11556 error message! Just finish uploading my music and can't connect to iTune match!

After purchasing iTune Match & almost finishing uploading 2500 songs, I can't connected to iTune match from either my Macmini or iPad. It gives me the 11556 error message. Anyone encountered the same problem and have any clue how to fix it please.
Many thanx.

I've been experiencing the same problem for the past month. I thought that it might be my older 3rd generation apple TV, so I purchased a new one yesterday. Hooked the new one up this morning and I'm experiencing the same problems. I've rebooted the apple tv a few times which doesnt really seem to help. I'm guessing it has something to do with my home network. I took the Apple TV to the beach with me last week and didn't get any error loading problems. I guess now I just need to figure out what I need to change on my network to hopefully remedy this problem. ugh, it's always something.

3rd gen iTouch is disabled and can't connect to iTunes! HELP!!

My 3rd gen iPod Touch is disabled and says to connect to iTunes, but when I connect I receive a message saying iTunes is unable to connect to my iPod because it is locked and has to be unlocked to connect. I can't connect if it's not unlocked, but I can't unlock it until it connects. What do I do? Taking it to the Apple Store is a last resort, and I can't connect it to iTunes.

Did you try connecting it in recovery mode as described in this article?

Hi XxRottenApplexX,
Try using the steps in the following article to help you troubleshoot this issue:
Can't connect to the iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1368
Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.
Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!

IPod is disabled and can't connect to iTunes

HI,
Can anyone help? My iPod touch is displaying a message " iPod disabled, connect to iTunes". When I try to connect to iTunes I get an error message "iTunes cannot connect this iPhone because of an unknown error 0xE8000065". Does anyone know what I need to do?
Thanks,
Ellie

Hello,
I'am not 100% sure about your problem, but a few things are needed to know what happened. One, did you hack or jeilbreak your device? If yes then you pretty much got brickwd. If not, then did you try to put your iPod in DFU mode and then restore? (DFU - Power+Home button for 10 seconds HOLD, and then home for another 10 seconds.) Hope this helps, though I'amnot sure about the cause.
Best Regards

IPod Touch disabled and can't connect to iTunes?

My iPod touch 4th gen has been fully disabled so that it says 'connect to iTunes'. But when I do that, it says I need to unlock my iPod first, which I can't do because my iPod is disabled. What do I do? Also, I don't want to restore my iPod because I don't have some data backed up. Thanks.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. You have no other choise. In the future make sure you frequently backup your iPod.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

I think you're going to have to reconnect the ipad as a new device. This seems to happen on occasion, although it's not supposed to do it.

IPod touch Gen4 is locked and won't connect to iTunes?

My son's newly purchased iPod Touch 4th Gen was given a lock code by him. He messed around with it in his sleep and locked it so that it needs reconnected to iTunes. However, when I try to connect to iTunes, it says that the iPod lock is keeping it from connecting to iTunes. Help?

Place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore the iPod via iTunes. For recovery mode see:
