IPad Restore Question

Hi Guys and Galls,
I'm just after a little bit of advice, I had an iPad for a few days and bought quite a few apps for it and had it backed up on my PC. I had to return the iPad for unforeseeable financial circumstances. So my question is when I get a new iPad in a few weeks how do I get the apps I bought for the old iPad onto the new iPad?
Second question, I’ll be changing my PC in a couple of months will iTunes just backup the iPad on my new PC or will I need to copy over the apps to my new PC from my old PC?
Many thanks

When getting your new iPad just connect it to your computer and restore it from your previous backup.

Quick ipad restore question

i want to know if i make a full backup of my ipad right now, and then restored to factory settings, update it through the cable to not use internal memory for the updates to current and i then restore my backup, will the backup restore my apps and everything or will it go back to having that data used for the updates?

Have you ever synced with iTunes before? If you haven't, it's not quite as simple as updating your device and restoring the backup. If none of your content is in the iTunes library on your computer, you have to transfer all of the content into iTunes first so that when the updating process finishes and the sync starts, you want to be able to put all of your apps back onto the iPad. If the apps don not exist in your iTunes library, you will erase you iPad.
The memory that the update needs will be greatly reduced after the update is complete. You need about 4-5 GB of space for the software to download and expand and when the update is applied, it will only take up about 1 additional GB of space - not the whole 4-5 GB.
If this is your first sync with iTunes, look at this.

What are the steps in Apple Configurator iPad restore? It appears to me that Configurator repeats steps, but it probably is that I don't know what happens and when.

If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can get a clue to what it is, and potentially use it, by going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and clicking 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have, or don't want to use, your rescue email address (you won't be able to add/change it until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get them reset (which will be by phone as they need to verify your id - we are fellow users here on these forums).
e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add/change rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 . Or you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

I have the Watchtime app on my iPad (1) and after an iPad restore my purchased items in the watch time app will not restore, however the items appear for purchase. how can i get the items to restore.

Puchased items in my watchtime app will not restore to my ipad (1) after an ipad restore. The items appear ready for purchase. how can i restore the items.

Following ultimately helped me : Make sure that you are logged in at the App Store App or iTunes App with your apple ID and password with a US account. Turn your iPad off and on and than you should see the Radio button again. It won't work if you are logged on with a foreign account. If you are not logged in at all, it worked, too.

Ipad restore fails error 2003

Was loading latest iPad update and it hung. Itunes indicated the iPad needed to be restored. Clicked on restore and received error 2003.

Same thing here. I have an iPad 2 that was running iOS 5.0.1. Everything worked fine when without any kind of sync over cable or wifi, all apps including free and purchased ones disappeared. When I did connect it to iTunes, all apps were unchecked. So, I checked my apps, did a sync, and they all returned but missing all app data.
Long story short, things got a little flakey and I wanted to start from scratch so I plugged my iPad in to install the factory default firmware but I get the following error, " The iPad "iPad" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (26)." Tried this in DFU mode and in regular restore mode (when the iPad screen says to connect to iTunes). I tried different versions of iTunes and machines, OS 10.6, 10.7, and Windows 7, all giving the same error. When attempting a restore, it goes through "Extracting software, Verifying iPad restore with apple, preparing iPad for restore, waiting for iPad, preparing iPad for restore, verifying iPad restore." After the progress bar on the iPad is there for about 30 seconds, ERROR. I tried different things for hours with iOS 5.0.1, and I also get the same error with iOS 5.1, which was released today.

Had my ipad restored today and cant find a book i downloaded is there any way to locate and reload the book without purchasing it again

I had my ipad restored today and cant locate a book I purchased in IBooks. is there a way to locate this book ithout purchasing it again

As long as the book is still in the store, and you haven't changed countries since buying it, then it should show in the Purchased tab in the iBooks app on your iPad for redownloading. If it's still in the store but doesn't show in Purchased then check to see if it's hidden : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases.

HT1414 when trying to restore my ipad gen 1 it hangs on "Verifying ipad restore with Apple" then returns an error 1602

I have tried to restore my ipad gen 1. When it gets to the Verigying ipad restore with Apple" it seems to hang then returns the error 1602. I have the black screen on my ipad so cannot get to the shut down bar. The ipad has not been tampered with or jail broken. it suddenly would only show the apple symbol for 5 or so seconds then go to a blank screen and then 30 or so seconds later show the apple symbol again. This only happens when plugged into its factory charger.

Have you tried the troubleshooting on this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error1603 ?

My ipad restored to someone elses account. how do i fix?

My ipad restored to someone else's account. I also noticed when connected to itunes my serial number does not show. How do i fix?

I used my laptop. It has all my itunes and idevice info on it. I even have a stored backup in itunes from a previous time. After talking to the friend that created this problem I found out that he was trying to unlock an ipad he purchased but was disabled or locked. He used WinScp to try and recover info off that ipad, That did not work so his sorry @#$ hooks my ipad up to WinScp and did something to where when I, [later on] discovered none of my apps would open. I hooked my ipad up to the laptop that only my ipad is authorized on and tried to restore it and that's when it happened. After the restore my ipad showed an activation screen to someone other than me. Itunes doesn't show my serial number at restore screen. I tried diagnostic scan and it reads it but i cant get itunes to restore my info and apps.

Verifying ipad restore with apple takes too long

I did all the steps as guided to restore my Ipad the 3rd. However, it seems to get stuck with the message "verifying ipad restore with Apple". How can I restore?

Not sure if you are using iTunes or not. However, detach iPad if connected to iTunes, go to Settings, Reset (scroll to the bottom), Erase all Contents and Settings .... and start again!
If you cannot get out of the current screen o do the above then do a Reset first [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank then power ON again in the normal way.] It is 'appsolutely' safe!

How long does verifying iPad restore with Apple take after upgrading?

How long does verifying iPad restore with Apple take after upgrading iTunes? It's been hours & my pc won't let me close because of it.

Should happen immediately...are your firewalls & anti-virus software turned off? If not, turn all of that stuff of & try again.

Will selecting 'Delete Account' in iCloud setting on iPad delete the AppleID account, or just delete it from the iPad in question?

Will selecting ‘Delete Account’ in iCloud settings on iPad delete the AppleID account entirely, or will it just delete the AppleID from the iPad in question?
I am trying to resolve a problem where someone tried to set up a second iPad on the same Apple ID account. I have partially solved the problem by creating a new Apple ID for the second iPad, but when I went to change the iCloud setting, my only option to change it was the 'Delete Account' button. I just want to make sure that I'm not going to accidentally delete the old Apple ID account because the fist iPad still needs to sync to that ID.

From the iPhone only.
