Ipda mini unable to restore when disabled due to find my iPad.

My daughter has forgotten her password and disabled her mini ipad (iOS 7).  I have attempted to restore but get the message that "find my iphone needs to be turned off to restore" on attempting (can't when disabled).  I've gone to my iCloud account and removed the device.  Still has same error message whn I atempt to restore again in itunes.
Has anyone else had this issue and how do i fix it? Have turned all devices on and off.

Force iPad into Recovery Mode. Follow step 1 to 5 very closely.

  • I forgot my iPad password and I have tried to restore it but I am unable to because it says it is unable to because i'm connected to Find My iPad!

    I forgot my iPad password and I have tried to restore it but I am unable to because it says it is unable to because i'm connected to Find My iPad! I need to get onto my iPad because for some assignments I use my iPad. I want to preferably factory reset it.

    Try and force iPad into Recovery Mode:
    1. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
    2. Connect USB cable to computer, leave the other end alone
    3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
    5. Release the Home button
    6. Open iTune
    7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
    8. Use iTune to restore iPad
    Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad

    Hi nikevans04,
    I am sorry to hear that you lost your iPad Air 2. You will only see the last location if it has been off for less than 24 hours. Anything longer than that, it will not show up using the Find My feature. Take a look at the article below for more information.

    4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port. Do not release button until you see picture of iTune and plug (very important)
    5. Release Home button.
    ON COMPUTER
    6. iTune has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTune.

  • Need to restore due to forgot passcode, but then itunes says it needs passcode to restore...how do I restore when disabled?

    Please help!

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
    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.

  • Iphone crash downloading iOS 6 and unable to restore using iTunes  due to error 3253

    I'm from New Zealand and woke up this morning to find the iOS 6 was available. So after an hour of downloading onto my iPhone 3GS, it wiped my phone, sent it into restore mode. I connected to iTunes - have been trying for almost 8 hours!!!!!!!! and it is unable to download iOS6 due to error 3252, connection resetting and error 23.
    have done everything, all firewalls and anti-virus are switched off, upgraded to latest version of iTunes, turned off computer, re set the internet a million times. Won't downald on anyone eses computer in this house, and friends using other internet have the same problem.
    My iPhone is now off and will not turn on! What the **** is going on Apple??? I spend a fortune on these products and these latest updates ahve been nothing but trouble!
    Please can anyone help, im getting really p@#$@d off!!!!!!!

    I had this problem at first initially, and tried it 4 or 5 times.  Once I made sure that no other unnecessary software was running, the restore worked successfully.  However, it sounds like you've probably tried that.  Good Luck.

  • Unable to restore when trying to upgrade to 4.3

    When I try to upgrade to 4.3 iTunes (correct version) will not restore (error 1013). What to do?

    Thought you folks would like to know that I finally fixed my iphone recovery mode 1013 error.  I learned that their are two gs.apple.com servers.  I found out which server I was connecting to and decided to try the other server.  I added the below entry in my hosts files.  I did a recovery and it worked.  NOW, what on earth is going on with apple gs.apple.com server 17.112.176.11?   gs.apple.com 17.151.36.30 worked for me.  Keep in mind, my phone is a normal stock phone with only apple store apps.  my phone is not gail broken and I do not use tiny umbrella or related utilities.Problems began with the release prior to the current one.

  • Unable to restore iOS 7.0.4 in a ipad with 3004 and 3194 Error

    Hi
    I've been trying to restore my ipad to iOS 7.0.4 for 3 days (I really mean it) but I just get Error 3004 or 3194 continuely.
    These are things I have tried :
    1 - Check the windows host file ( put the gs.apple.com , remove it , test with different IPs , blank it , even delete it and etc .. )
    2 - Test with different itunes versions
    3 - Test with different computers
    4 - Test with different internet providers
    5 - Test with Proxy , VPN etc.
    6 - Check, change and test with different options in internet options.
    7 - I'm sure about my internet connectivity.
    8 - Test all the above tests in both normal and DFU mode.
    but I still get the same error again and again . I actually open gs.apple.com in the browser with no problem and fast.
    the error appears when I choose the iOS ( with shift + click on the restore button ) and after extracting section.
    Thanks .
    <Edited By Host>

    I'm really gladful for the answers specially from the supports. Way to go apple ...

  • When I am attempting to reset my password that has been forgotten through a computer restore, iTunes gives me a prompt to turn off Find my iPad in iCloud settings. This is not possible, as my iPad mini is locked and settings are unaccessible.

    When attempting to reset my iPad mini password that has been forgotten, I am unable to restore my device due to an error message stating that I "Need to turn off Find My iPad in iCloud settings on my iPad mini". This is not possible, as I have forgotten the password and can not open the device.
