Ipad 2 still crashes after restoring to factory setting after upgrade to IOS 7.0.6
After recent upgrade to IOS 7.0.6, my ipad 2 started playing up. Lost the use of camera like many others. Followed advice to restore to factory setting after connecting to Itunes. Took several attempts to do so as it wasn't able to locate my ipad in itunes and kept saying it couldn't find my iphone? Not sure why it was looking for iphone. Anyway, I disconnected and turned off the ipad holding on to the Sleep button and home together and left it off overnight. Next morning, I found I could turn my ipad on. Feeling relieved, I started to input my details, etc, and in the middle of doing so, it just went blank and the apple logo came on. It kept going off and coming back again. I just turned it off again using the sleep and home button together and left it for a day. The next day I was able to get into my home screen but after using it to log into my emails, etc, it just went off with the apple logo appearing again. I really regretted upgrading to IOS 7.0.6. Nothing works properly anymore, ie my camera, the sleep button..... Wish I could restore back the older version. Is there any hope/cure for my sick ipad? Hate to spend lots of money on repair. Please help..
FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER
6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...
Note:
1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
2. If you did not do step 4 properly, start all over again. -

Dear Sir/Madam Since the wifi is not coming ON how can I open this diagnostic on the iphone 4S am using and having problem with wifi behaving in erratic manner.
Am a professional engineer for projects and am 68 yrs old. At one time was looking after a production line manufacturing I C's in semiconductors manufacturing company of the US.
Have four apple products, one hp laptop and one DELL professional computer at home is used by only two members me and my wife.
Wife prefers working on ipad2 or ipad mini while traveling and has iphone 4. Am using iphone4S with laptop and Dell computer, No apple product is more than two years old.
Am having the problem in using wifi on the 4S after it was upgraded to the latest ios as per the recommendation by your software of my iphone 4S
The wifi card hangs up at it's own will and even a visit to your authorized service center in Delhi has not able to help me although they have reverted the ios back to the
one supplied with the set. Am a user and not a computer expert but it looks like the wifi card is not able to some times take the load while working which could indicate the wifi card is getting heated up.
My daughter who is Masters in 3D Animation is an ardent fan of apple products working at present in Canada was also gifted by me a 4S about 4 months back. My daughter-in-law is using iphone4 and an ipad for her professional works along with a Dell PC in the US. While my son is a fan of samsung products and does not like an apple product.
So in a family we have 7 apple products except MAC laptop/PC.
But the fact is, this problem with 4S has really shaken me up and now it seems your products are deteriorating in quality while demanding the best pricing structures.
Since this is purely the device and the software of apple problem you may please replace this set with new one as neither have any time to push you/ request you after your service centre
in Delhi told me yesterday this cannot be repaired.
The serial No of my set is DN*****TC0 and was bought from an authorized dealer and so were the other products from the same dealer in Delhi. This set is still in showroom condition and
was never used without a protective cover.
Thanks

Iphone 5s stuck at activation screen after restoring to factory setting
I had deleted my Apple ID and created one same Apple ID again. After i restored my iphone to factory setting, it stuck at the activation screen, even if i filled in the correct Apple ID and password, it shows "cannot use this Apple ID to unock this phone'. Seek for help.
You need the AppleID and passcode used to originally activate the iPhone.
This is a new security feature in iOS7 called Activation Lock. There is no
workaround.
Without the AppleID and passcode used to activate the iPhone, it will be useless
to you and everyone else.
If it is only the passcode that you forgot, try here:
how to reset password:

First time user on this forum, so I appreciate any help from anyone. I load up some 80-90 gigs of video to download and it takes in maybe 200 mb and says 'IPod Sync is Complete" I've restored the factory settings, tried doing it manually and nothing works. It will add to my iPhone, so I'm guessing the problem is with the device.
Sorry, Bilbo...I have the latest version (2.0.4) and have over 140 g. free space. Even movies that were on there early but have been deleted cannot be re-added to the iPod. I have followed the instructions in that link, both automatic and manual and nothing seems to do the trick. It initially acknowledges that there are some scores and scores of movies to download, showing on the spacebar that it anticipates some 90 gigs need to be synced. But then it says 'sync completed', lays down the shovel and calls it a day.
Any ideas outside the given solutions? -
I accidentally restored BF's phone back this latest back-up which was March 2013... Some of his data were saved on iCloud but not everything. I don't understand why it only picked certain things to store in iCloud and not everything! For exmaple, few photos were saved on his Photostream album on his phone. Photos taken in the last two weeks were saved but not before that to March 2013. So I'm looking for a way to retrieve data directly from the iphone and not through ITUNES. Please let me know if there's hope!
Photostream only keeps photos for the last 30 days. Resign yourself to the fact that the rest of them are gone.

I am not able to Sync. My iPOD classic 80Gb. It tells that as iTunes can not read the contents-restore to factory settings- after restoring – it tells that it can not be restored bcause there are files that are used by other application. My iPOD appears in My Computer in drive H as a mass storage generick volume
Try disabilng the Enable Disk Use option from under the iPod's Summary tab, applying the changes, and seeing if that helps.
Otherwise, temporarily disabling any antivirus, security, firewall, or file indexing software that may be running on your system and then try restoring your iPod again.

how can i fix "the sim card inserted in this iphone does not appear to be supported " after restoring a factory unlocked iphone 4
The term "factory unlocked" has no meaning. Your phone was not legitimately unlocked. Contact the carrier it is locked to and find out if you can get it unlocked.

Phone will NOT turn on after synching & updating (or trying) to ios 6. ? ..... Is it REQUIRED to "restore" to factory setting? When researching, I read that you will get an option to restore from back up. I am not receiving any options on iTunes.... restore only & basically it is telling me I will lose everything.
I am reading on this site about the error I am getting and it wants me to change some files that I am not comfortable messing with. Mainly because it is like a foreign language. Will the store do this for me or tell me if it is neccessary?

Restore back up of my iPhone-password not recognised. After restore, itunes can not restore because it says the password is incorrect. But I can sign into my apple account with the password. My iPhone is now set to factory settings as a new phone, what can i do to access the back up from my phone before I reset it.
That does happen. It depends on how hard the server is being hit, as well as the connection speed of your system. If you are on a windows system, you will want to disable any antivirus or firewall software during the download.
