    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

  • After I "updated" my iPad mini with iOS7 Siri lost her voice! Help me get it back for her

    IS THERE ANY WAY TO GET SIRI'S VOICE BACK?  HAS THERE BEEN ANY FIXES OR UPDATES THAT I MAY HAVE MISSED?
    I updated iOS7 when it was first introduced to my iPad mini and when I did Siri went speechless.  When she replies, it's written and it's not always convenient. 
    And of course with the "update" there were other "problems" that I have learned to work around, waiting for another "update" but I haven't seen that, now I'm going to just start looking for fixes as I come across them. 

    Thanks for your suggestion Diavonex, I did go thru the steps as you have detailed out, however when I get to "#3 My Info> . . . ." I am unable to select "default" the field is populated with "My Contacts" and initially had my name.   I have removed my email accounts and to try to get it to leave my contacts and it remains there although now it says "NONE".  
    I also tried the "RESET" as suggested by Texas Mac Man.    And still nothing. 
    Any more suggestions?  But now we are looking at two issues.  First ~ Silent Siri      AND NOW    Second  ~  #3 My Info under the Siri label does not have a "default" option as it DEFAULTS to my  CONTACTS
    Thank you both again, I appreciate your suggestions.

  • HT4623 My phone has locked me out claims I put wrong password. I upgraded my iPhone 4S to iOS 7 this am. It asked for a password so i entered it. I gave my iPad mini the same password. Now my phone is locked.

    My iPhone 4 s was upgraded today and I am locked out of my phone

    If your phone is disabled from entering the wrong passcode too many times you'll have to restore it to remove the passcode, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212.

  • HT1212 I have an ipad mini and it is disabled.  My daughter is not sure what the password is and it waon't give me the opportunity to enter it at all.

  • Have multiple devices associated with one Apple ID: iPod Touch and Ipad Mini stopped sending/receiving iMessages and FaceTime all of a sudden

    This is the listing of what we have:
    Ipod Touch 4th Gen for daughter
    Ipod Touch 5th Gen for another daughter
    Ipad 3
    Ipad Mini
    Iphone 4S
    Iphone 4S
    For sharing/downloading convenience, all of these are linked to one apple ID. iMessage and FaceTime were working flowlessly when we set it up. Yes, there was a problem initially where some devices were receiving someone else's texts, but they were resolved when I went to Settings and chose a specific # or email address for each DEVICE (so there's no overlapping)
    All of a sudden, my daughter's Ipod Touch 4th Gen started having problems sending messges. Sending bar will go up to the end then stop right before it gets completely full--end result, message not delivered. I tried to facetime her, but nothing happens. Sometimes when I try facetiming ipod touch 4th, I'd get an error message '____ is not available for FaceTime'
    I've confirmed the email address associated with ipod Touch 4 has been added and verified under my apple ID. I've tried restoring the iPod in iTunes, hard resetting the unit, turning off and on iMessage/FaceTime... and still doesn't work.
    All our software is up to date. By the time I started thinking maybe ipod touch 4th gen is getting old, my husband's newly bought ipad MINI started having the same problem.
    This is really frustrating---help?

    We're screwwwwwed! Not THAT familiar to apple, just barely plugging along and dove in with two ipads and two ipod touches. Previous experience was just two ipods (160 GB) that I had to still rotate audio books out of every few months... well, for me. My wife doesn't use hers as much. ANYWAY, I lost a zillion things with the ipod classic since it didn't have a back-up option and many of the CDs I scrounged up when it first came out were already lucky to have survived college. 8 years later and the computer that had the original files had been replaced umpteen times. ipods failed and decided to quit being a tight wad. Not sure if these gifts are worth it yet.... well, two of them were.

  • Why does the screen on my iPad mini jump around?  Apps open and close, I can't get back to the home screen.  Is my mini possessed?

    Why does the screen on my iPad mini start jumping--larger, smaller--can't close apps.  I reboot and still it happens.  Any suggestions?

    If the unit has NEVER been jailbroke, first try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...  Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • Ipad asks for icloud password

    Ipad mini on Power on asks for iCloud password

    To clarify this issue:
    I do have a different (few years old) Apple ID and created new iCloud ID when I purchased this iPad mini. My passwords for Apple ID and iCloud are different. Ipad asks for Apple ID whenever I want to purches any new App or music what seams to be correct.
    iCloud Photo Stream works fine on PC as well as on iPad.
    After Power on my iPad mini I have a popup asking for iCloud password. Regardles if I  enter my pass or just click "Cancel" it goes away and everything including iCloud and iCloud email works fine. When there is no WiFi available It cannot verify entered password anyway and is keep asking until I click Cancel.
    Process of pressing and holding Home button and Power button didn't change asking for password.
    I went to Settings->iCloud->Delete Account and deleted it opting for remove and merge and leter I Signed to iCloud again. No change..
    I chatted with Apple and they suggested to reset WiFi somewhere in Settings->General----..
    This solved the problem for few hours. What I mean when I tried Power off and then Power on again while chatting with Apple the iPad didn't ask for password. After an hour or so it asked again and now is keep asking for iCloud password on power on again although not every time. It has nothing to do with WiFi because it did the same while I was connected to a few different WiFis or not connected at all. Since entering the iCloud password or Cancel does not make any difference until I power it off it means there is a bug somewhere in the Apple's software.
    I do not have many Apps installed and in a mean time I removed King Photo because it was failing sometimes.
    I'll chat with Apple again as soon as I have at least one hour free time during work hours.

  • IPad mini not playing movies

    New ipad mini started movie I had downloaded off iTunes , played forty min then would start and stop. Today gave error code12894

    I have no problems whatsoever playing YouTube videos on my iPad using Safari.
    There are other factors that might be involved. Are you using the desktop version of YouTube or are you using the mobile YouTube site? Depending on what video I am trying to watch, I get the same message in the desktop version of the site. Some of the videos play fine for me even in the desktop version of the site.
    There are no "iPad mini" support sites. The support articles are based on the OS that the devices run, which in this case is iOS. The iPhone, iPod Touch and all models of the iPad run iOS. So the links are pertinent to each and any of the iOS devices except for the things that deal specifically with that particular device.

  • Ipad Mini - Internet problem - IOS 7.0.4/7.0.2

    Just made the upgrade to this new IOS 7.0.4 and suddently my ipad mini started to having problems with the wifi connection.
    I  am completely dissapointed with Apple and this new IOS 7.0.4, why  releasing it if wasn't ready yet?? My ipad mini was fine till today,  now i made this new upgrade and i simply don't have access to internet. It keeps saying "Safari cannot open the page blabla because your ipad is not connected to the internet. When in fact he is, and it has signal connectivity. Also keeps saying connection timed out, obviously.
    I have downgrade it to the IOS 7.0.2 throught Itunes and now he still has this wifi problem. Great job Apple, i am very happy.
    I guess i have to stop using my ipad and wait for Apple to hopefully fix this in the new software update or option 2: bring the modem along with me when i go to my kitchen then when i move into the livingroom since the ipad needs to be next to the modem/router. Ridiculous.
    There is no solution right?
    Thanks

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • IPad mini becoming unresponsive

    Hi, this week my iPad mini started to become unresponsive and with a weird behaviour.
    I was using Google Maps and then the touch screen started to become unresponsive, and now it's opening applications by itself, when I try to type some text, for example, if I press a letter, it types the letter three times.
    Did anyone see this kind of behaviour before?

    Try this and see if it helps.
    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.
