My IPAD 1 got frozen during resetting all content and settings for 5hrs.

Hello Team,
I went to reset everything, data content etc and the screen went black and there is a buffering circle, but it's been like this for like about 5 hours, I did have almost all 12 gb free but I don't think resetting takes this long does it?

No it should not take that long. You probably need to restore your iPad by using recovery mode now. Read this.
iPad: Unable to update or restore
This is how the process goes.
Disconnect the USB cable from the iPad, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off iPad: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for iPad to turn off.
If you cannot turn off iPad using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the iPad turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to iPad. When you reconnect the USB cable, iPad should power on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the recovery mode alert that iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode.
Use iTunes to restore iPad.

    Hey there MP1201,
    It sounds like you would like to reset your iPod Touch to factory settings but the Erase All Content and Settings function is not working. I would next try using iTunes to restore the iPod with this article:

  • TS3694 So I have an iphone4g in recovery mode. followed all the steps to the T. Error pops up in itunes 1602. Prior it was powered off during erase all content and settings mode waiting to reboot

    So I have an iphone4g in recovery mode. Followed all the steps to the T. Error pops up in itunes 1602. Prior it was powered off during erase all content and settings mode while waiting to reboot. Now its back to the apple logo. Any ideas if powering it off during the erase all content damaged the software?

    You should really read the manual.
    "How do you restore from backup? "
    Restore.  When given the choice, choose to use backup.
    "And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
    They would only be where you put them.  What program did you use to import them?  Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all.  You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
    If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

  • Can The "Reset All Content and Settings" will remove ALL Apple Accounts?

    Good Day,
    My mom will give me a Second Hand iPhone 5s.She dont know/forget the Apple ID that its currently stored on the phone,and i said to sign out the apple ID there and she did it.
    Now my question is, Is the "Reset All Content and Settings" can delete/remove ALL Apple Accounts?
    I asked this question because, one time i read about a question here saying that when he reboot/update the phone that he didnt own first, said that the iPhone asked to input the ID that its installed/stored.
    Im curious,worried, and preparing some money to prepare for this.
    I hope someone can answer this Question within this week, so i can save money for repair etc.
    Thanks in Advance.

    No amount of money is going to change Activation Lock. If the device has iOS 7 and you restore it, then you will need the original Apple ID and password used to activate the phone to be able to activate it yourself.
    Reset All Content and Settings will not remove Activation Lock. Your mom is going to have to remember what Apple ID was used to activate the device, or it will be useless to you. Apple will not disable it.
    It is all on your mother right now.

  • Unlock iphone will get lock again if i do reset all content and settings???

    Unlock iphone will get lock again if i do reset all content and settings???

    I do not understand you question. From the Users Guide.
    Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    What do you mean by unlock?

    You will lose them from the iphone.
    You should be syncing them to your comptuer regularly, so they should be there.

  • HT201274 What exactly will happened if I reset all content and settings

    I upgraded this phone from someone else's old account bc I had info in their account I needed. Now I'm restricted from doing a lot of things because they're old passwords are still in the system how can I erase there're old IDs and passwords and change them to my own without losing all my contact information?

    If you erase all content and settings it will wipe the phone and there will be nothing on it.  If you want to change Apple IDs:
    For purchases, go to Settings>Store>Apple ID, tap the ID shown, sign out, sign back in with your ID
    For iMessage, go to Settings>Messages>Receive At, tap the ID at the top, sign out, sign back in with your ID
    For FaceTime, go to Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, sign back in with your ID
    For iCloud, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  Then set up a new iCloud account on the phone with your Apple ID.
    For mail accounts, go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars, tap each account, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  Then set up your own.
    That should about do it.  Note: for app updates, if there are apps on the phone that were purchased with his ID you will need to delete these from the phone and from your iTunes library (if there) in order to not be prompted for the password for his ID.  (Apps are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them.)

  • If I reset all contents and setting, will I lose my money from iTunes Store

    I want to reset all things in my ipad because it has a lot of problems. But what im thinking is, when I reset all contents and settings will i lose my money from iTunes Store

    Your iTunes account shouldn't be affected, you will only remove all of your content from the iPad.
    Depending upon the problems that you are having, have you tried a soft-reset to see if that helps : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    If you do a complete reset then first copy off all of your purchases to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases on iTunes 11), and take a copy of any importand documents etc

  • What all happens if I reset everything (Content and Settings) on my iPhone 4?

    The day before yesterday I have discovered a problem where I have an app stuck on 'waiting...' And the app refuses to either download or delete. I've tried everything, syncing my phone to the computer, trying to redownload it on the App Store, but nothing seems to be working. I'm now assuming the only way to get rid of the app is to reset all content and settings off of my phone, which would be the last resort for me and is something I'd rather not do. But if I do reset everything on my iPhone 4, I would like to know all 'side effects' of this action and if it affects any data concerning credit card information or if my number or data plan will need to be added again. It would be very nice to find a way to avoid resetting my phone and delete the 'waiting..' App, if anyone could give me any information about that problem. If not, it would still be great if I could know what will happen to my phone if I reset it. Thank you so much, any and all information would be greatly appreciated !!

    What you are describing as "reset" is actually called a Restore.
    FIrst try doing a Reset by holding the power and Home buttons down for 5-10 seconds until you see Apple logo on the screen. This does not erase any of your data or setting, but often helps with problems like yours.
    Restore Is a more involved process, but you'll still be OK if you follow instructions.

    There is no factory set restriction code. If you need to completely reset then follow the instructions you find here:
