Will the iPad power up by holding down on the power button until the Apple logo appears on the screen? If it does, try restoring using recovery mode.

What should I do?,,,what do I need to do?,,,I can't continue searching...it always turns again and again...anyone pls...

That happens because an error occurred in the App and it crashed.
Try closing all open apps on your iPad (double click the Home button and swipe up on the App screen to remove).
Then reset your iPad:
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).
No data will be lost.

See: Resolve iOS update and restore errors - Apple Support
That error usually means that your computer antivirus is blocking the update.
It can also mean that your phone was jailbroken, or your computer was used to jailbreak some iOS device in the past.

From your description it sounds like your Hotmail account was compromised. Does anyone else know the password and could they have changed it?

My Ipad has been stolen...I've purchase a new one and when trying to restore a previous back up, the system showed me a different Apple ID. Can it be the ID of the one who has my Ipad ?

My Ipad has been stolen at home.
I've purchase a new one and when trying to restore a backup from I cloud the Ipad showed me a different Apple ID than mine and refused my Apple ID.
Can it be this ID (which is an email adress) is the email of the one having my stolen IPAD ?
THANKS
Olivier

The appleid its showing you is associated with one of the apps / songs or another purchase that was on the device the last time it was backed up which it needs to download the app / purchase again. It won't be from the person who has your ipad now unless they downloaded it and then your device was backed up afterwords, so only if the backup date was listed as AFTER your device was lost / stolen.
Thanks

How can you retrieve a password. My daughter is locked out of her IPod because she forgot her password.

How can we change password on an Ipod. My daughter has forgotten current password and has been locked out.

It can' be retrieved. To reset the password:
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: How to back up
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 iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

If you're unable to do a Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

HT4836 When I open launchpad it freezes everything! I had to restart my computer all over again. What should be the best solution? There are plenty of the same apps.

You can find the serial number either in About this Mc in the Menu bar under the , or it should be on a sticker under the foot of the machine.
If you have the install discs, try booting from them, holding down the c key and then using Disk Utility to check the drive.
You can also boot into Safe mode
To start up into Safe Mode (to "Safe Boot"), do this:
   1. Be sure the computer is shut down.
   2. Press the power button.
   3. Immediately after you hear the startup tone, press and hold the Shift key.
      Tip: The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone but not before.
   4. Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple and progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
During the startup in Mac OS X 10.2 through 10.3.9, you will see "Safe Boot" on the Mac OS X startup screen.
During the startup in Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you will see "Safe Boot" on the login window, which appears even if you normally log in automatically.
Please post back with results,
To leave Safe Mode in any version of Mac OS X, restart the computer normally, without holding any keys during startup.

My mini ipad has been dispatched but which reference do I use to track it on TNT site?

My new ipad mini has been dispatched today by apple but which reference number do I use to track my package on TNT website? Is it the 'PO No' 'delievery number' or the 'additional number'? Is it a combination of all three? So confused!

If this is your Apple ID you will also have to delete your icloud accounts from the ipads and then add them back. It can get messy especially on mac if you have one. Then theres the App Store that will ask for the new one, and icloud mail, etc etc.

I finished downloading the first part but then i press "install now" and it says software update unavailable. what should i do?

i cant get ios7

Each step involved in updating to/installing iOS7 requires communication with Apple Servers. They are currently being accessed by millions. Please be patient and just keep trying. Or wait till the traffic on them has dropped.

So my daughter plugged her ipad i to home pc to download music from itunes and it wiped everthing out of her ipad and copied my ipad from the last time I had mine plugged in. Is there anyway to get my info back like all her pictures?

Had she backed up her iPad to a different computer or iCloud?
If not, it's gone.

HT1766 My daughter locked herself out of her phone cannot remember the advanced password setting, we share an Itunes account and both recently joined the cloud, if she resets her phone all her information will be gone, will it affect the data on my phone

My daughter locked herself out of her phone cannot remember the advanced password setting, we share an Itunes account and both recently joined the cloud, if she resets her phone all her information will be gone, will it affect the data on my phone as well

No, when resetting an iPhone it resets the actual data contained within the phone, nothing on your iCloud will be affected. It is a good idea to use seperate iClouda and iTunes accounts then you can each create your own backups regularly without your daughters backup overwriting yours or vice versa.

I got locked out of my ipad by a passcode and the itunes restart is not working

I was locked out of my ipad because I forgot the passcode. I have tried the iTunes restart to wipe everything off the ipsd to start over and it is not working.

Here's the Apple support page on this. If the Restpre process doesn't work you need to put your device into Recovery mode. Read through all the steps and follow them carefully.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
