Just tried update to iOS 7.1.2. Why has do I get a "replacement needed message"?

As directed, I just tried updating to iOS 7.1.2 on Ipad. Went through process and then was told to restore system. Now it says "Replacement needed".   Why?

Hi Bob,
I have an iPad 2 (3rd Generation).  It has a camera and does not have a retina screen.  It was not until yesterday that my iPad informed me that an upgrade (IOS 7.0.2 was available for downloadeven though the upgrade has been available for over several wweks.  I  have been reading this thread and the earlier thread you recommended and  have been putting off the upgrade until the replacement issue was resolved.  Since there really has been not new updates to this tread, I am assuming nothing has happened.  Although I feel bad for other members of this forum, my iPad is working perfectly well and I do not want to do anything to jeopardize that.  But I have read that "earlier thread" a number of times and the one contribution that could change my mind regarding doing the upgrade is: youse123 May 6, 2014 6:02 AM in response to kger
I have been in regular contact with AppleCare who are very helpful. The issue has been escalated to the iOS Engineers (in Australia) and they said the issue is affecting some cellular iPad 2's (WiFi only iPad 2's should not be affected), and is definitely a server backend configuration problem with the cellular connections.
My iPad is a wifi only.  Have you heard of any wifi only iPads experiencing an issue with the IOS 7.1.2 upgrade?

  • HT4972 i just recently updated to IOS 6  and now between my wifes Iphone and my sons ipod  messaging and or texting and facetime  is jacked  what went wrong.  Please help

    Help  I just downloaded the most recent IOS 6 update  and now messaging and facetime between wifes phone and sons ipod is very messed up.   We were able to fix texting by shutting off Imessaging but still have issues with facetime just keeps saying the person is busy?  any help would be great

    Are you using the same Apple id for your devices? It might be the same Apple id. You can check by going to settings > FaceTime and it will say apple id. If it is the same  log in into a diffrent account all of them. If that doesn't work Please reply to me and I will try my best to help you.

  • I have a 4S and just tried updating to the latest iOS version and my phone went into recovery mode and iTunes says I need to restore to factory settings. Anyone know how I can fix my phone without losing all my content?

    You would only be able to restore to a backup to iCloud or iTunes:

    Hi You may have a hardware fault take ipad to Apple Store. Ring then first to make an Appointment take box and you purchase paperwork they may give you A replacement. Before you do that Try a Reboot hold down power button & menu button hold both down until you see Apple Logo you may need to hold down for up to 30 Seconds But you may need to do this more than once. If it doesn't work take back to Apple Store. Cheers Brian

  • I just tried updating my iPhone to ios 6. It told me that I need to restore my iphone and update it but I keep getting the -1 error

    I just tried updating my iPhone 4 to ios 6. It told me that I need to store my phone and update it but every time I try to update it, I get the -1 error message...can someone help me out?

    Sorry, wish I could help but I have the same problem.
    Been trying for hours to update a 4s and the furthest I get is the "-1" error.
    So frustrating, I guess a visit to Apple is forthcoming.
    Been using the iPhone since the first model and never a problem till now.

  • HT4623 I just tried updating my iPad through iTunes and it said it was unsuccessful and now is telling me to restore my iPad!! why is this and I'm not sure if it did back up because my iPad will not turn on.

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    i just tried updating my iphone 4 and now my phone is in recovery mode and i dont want to loose anything on my fone someone help please!!!!!

    If its stuck in recovery mode then you have to restore it. Hopefully you had a recent backup on Icloud or on your computer that you can apply after restoring it. If so then you shouldn't loose your data.
    Just connect it to Itunes and restore it. After it will promt you when your done to restore from backup or as new. If its on icloud unplug the phone and go through the intro screen till you get the same prompt. Sign into icloud and restore backup.

  • I just tried updating ITunes to the new version and it will not completely download and now I get an error message of MSVCR80

    I just tried updating ITunes to the new version and it will not completely download and now I get an error message of MSVCR80. Is there a problem with the new iTunes version?
    Now ITunes won't open.Help!!!

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features(Later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.

    Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    and paste into:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
    The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

    Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
    Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (If you've got XP, although the procedure is for Vista and 7, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

    No, sorry... did not happen becasue no such model exists.
    If the device is in recovery mode, any data on it is already lost. 
    The only options are:
    Restore the device to get it functional.
    Enjoy the paper weight.
    For what reason did you attempt to update the device without first ensuring that your data was safe, meaning backing up the device and copying important pictures/videos taken with the device to a computer?

    I tried updating my iPod, and ever since it has not worked at all. If I hold in the lock & home button, it will tell me to plug it into iTunes. Once I do that, it says it will restore but every time, restoring it fails. My iPod is not working at all, and I really have no idea what to do. It is just a black screen, and occasionally the white apple will appear as if it were turning on, but it won't turn on. I just need some suggestions on what to do!

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
