  • I have an ipad with the ios7 update, but I forgot my restrictions passcode. And i can't restore because my "find my ipod" is on. But i also can't do anything because i don't have an icloud for this device. What can i do?!!

    I have an ipad with the ios7 update, but I forgot my restrictions passcode.And when I go and click restore I can't restore because the "findmyiphone" is on and I can't do anything about it since i can't get in my ipad. I can't do anything on icloud.com either because I did not put my device on there. What can I do??

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen                         
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.                        
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings        
    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

  • IPad Restoring Error

    My brother forgot his iPad password and got it wrong until the iPad showed:"iPad is disabled, connect to iTunes". So I connected the iPad to iTunes, and I restored it. But when it finished processing data, it suddenly displayed the error sign. This already appeared more than once when I was restoring the iPad, and I had to shut it down and turn it on many times. And now it can't restore. Well, it has finished restoring but then error again. Can anyone tell me what should I do? It's really frustrating.

    To help you we/you need to know the specific error.  The common errors and their resolution are listed here:

  • ITunes DID recognize new iPad mini, error when updating, now doesn't. Please help. I have a 700 dollar paperweight now.

    Today I bought a brand new iPad mini 2, 32 gb. First, I backed up my old ipad mini to my hard drive. Then, I updated iTunes to the newest version. Then, I plugged in the new iPad mini, went through the set up, iTunes was working fine. I registered the iPad, then it suggested i update the iOS on the iPad. This is where things went south. After a few minutes, it stated "cannot update iOS 7 at this time" or something to that effect. Since that point, iTunes will not recognize the iPad. The iPad shows the "connect to iTunes" screen. When I plug it in, I hear the tone suggesting a new device is connected, but nothing happens. I've tried it in DFU mode, no results. I've tried putting it in recovery mode, nothing happens, just the same screen. I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it, following every step suggested through this site/apple support. I even uninstalled and installed an older version of iTunes (10.7) but same result. I've followed all troubleshooting steps, and nothing is working, so please don't suggest the same olf "iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows" page.
    What should I do? Do I have to take this to the geniuses at the store? Will they even be able to help without having access to my computer?

  • IPad restore error 2009.

    My iPad (1) is refusing to restore after crashing.  I have updated all my software (Mac) and was running the latest iOS.  The error message I get is 2009.  I have looked this up, and reset the SMC.  Still not working.  Tried it on my iMac, same issue.  I am able to put the iPad into recovery mode.  iTunes see's the ipad, extracts the software, verify's the restore with apple, and then tries to prepare the iPad for the restore.  This is when I get the error 2009.  I am running Lion on my early 2010 Macbook Pro.  Any advice would be appreciated. 

    I just copy & paste the URL and it turns it into a link. http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694#error2009

  • IPad Restore Error 1600, 1601.

    Hi, receiving errors 1600, 1601 when restoring iPad1 despite using latest iTunes, OSX and troubleshooting USB connections and ports. Any ideas people? Thanks!

    I just experienced the same errors on a restore, tried multiple times.  Someone came up with the suggestion to try it on another machine.  I loaded iTunes on an older PC, attached my iPad and it started and finished in short order the restore.  I moved the restore file from the original pc to the older one in the same location as it was on the unit that gave me the errors.  Then when it worked, it attached to the original machine and synced my apps back that were in that iTunes version.

  • Ipad restore error 4014

    everything was running well then all of a sudden screen pixeled and now the ipad is dead? help!
    now no power and in restore mode, I was given error 4014 - could not restore

    I Have the same problem. I also have the iPad 4 wifi & cellular 32gb. Owned it from new since November 2012. Tried everything possible but still nothing. I have spoke to apple via chat & on the phone & they advise me that this will need to be booked in for a service at my cost as its out of warranty! I don't think so...
    Guys..what you don't get told is that the one year warranty you get with apple, also applies for 6 years after purchase ( 5 years in scotland) consumers in the U.K. have the right to ask the retailer to fix, replace any faulty item Purchased from them. I am visiting my local apple store on Saturday & have been told by Apple customer care to explain I want to : Exercise my rights to have my ipad serviced or replaced under the consumer law.
    If it can't be fixed at apples cost then it's replaced. it's the law & simple. Don't pay anything else. Let apple sort this fault, it is there hardware that's at fault at the end of the day. Hope this helps. I shall upadte on Saturday evening of the outcome.

  • IPad Restore Error

    I recently purchased a new iPad from overseas and had my friend install applications on it via his itunes on his computer. It was working fine until my kids (2-3 years old) set a passcode while they were playing with it and I can no longer access to it. Of course those troublemakers haven't even learned to read and write but screw things up.
    I searched online trying to solve the problem myself and found 2 solutions:
    1. Sync with the original itunes it had synced with to remove the passcode.
    2. Restore to its factory default via itunes
    Problem with the first solution is my friend is on a trip and it will take a month till he returns.
    Problem with the second solution is while trying to restore my iPad I got the following error "iTunes could not connect to the iPad because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the iPad before it can be used with iTunes".
    I tried to reset the ipad holding down the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously. Then tried to restore it again but got the same error.
    iTunes's version is 10.0.1.22
    iPad is the latest one.

    My one is Ipad 2 Wi-Fi.
