  • IPad Air Stuck in Restore Loop

    Tried to install ios 8.0.1 this afternoon. Got error message that said this devise could not install this build. Now ipad is stuck in a restore loop. Will not reinstall ios 8.0. I have tried all of the online suggestions, i.e. disable virus software, restart computer and ipad, and  turned off all other USB devices. Nothing works....need help.

    Hey cdlordo,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with your iPad after attempting to install iOS 8. To troubleshoot, let’s go ahead and place your device into recovery mode and restore it with iTunes:

  • Ipad upgrade stuck on restore screen

    upgrade to iOS5 failed on the ipad.  iTunes shows the sycing and completes it but on the ipad, it requires configuring the system and gets stuck on the 'restore from backup' screen.  Connecting to iTunes and syncing is not recognized by the ipad. It is an endless loop of operations.  Result: the ipad never goes past the 'connect to iTunes'.
    I am not inclined to configure it as a new ipad as I might not be able to access the apps I have backup up. 
    My iphone4 upgraded fine. 
    Any suggestions?
    Thank you!

    You can recover all of your apps, music, etc. from iTunes assuming you've syced with it lately. However, you will loose all of the associated documents, preferences, and other settings for each App. I just went through this with my iPad 1.

  • IPad Air stuck in recovery screen after update. No reset possible

      Hello everyone,
    I have searched the community for an answer but nothing fits really.
    There are some threads regarding problems with the update to iOS 8.1 and screens stuck in recovery mode, but none of the suggested solutions work for me and I am really becoming desperate.
    First of all, I backed up my iPad through iTunes (I have a PC).
    Then I tried to update my iPad to IOS 8.1 through iTunes. During the update the message "an error has occured (3014)" appeared. I was prompted to set my iPad to recovery mode. So I clicked the butoon for this and after it was supposedly finished, the message "an error has occured (3014)" appeared.
    So, i cannot update nor rest my iPad and the screen is stuck in "connected to iTunes" screen. I tried every possible reset (soft and hard) with no avail. I haven't used any thrird party software like tiny umbrella nor is my iPad jailbreaked or somesuch.
    Please help me
    Thanks in advance
    Luke

    Connect your device to your computer, you will probably have to reset it there. You could then update it using your computer then try syncing everything back on to your device.

  • Ipad 2 stuck on home screen

    My ipad 2 stuck on home screen. I've done a hard restart and connected through MacBook to iTunes but as I can't respond from ipad, not registering connection. Please help.

    Hello jopoppy68,
    Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPad.
    I recommend following the steps below for an issue like this (you can skip the steps you have already tried):
    If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
    If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on),reset your device.
    If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
    Let charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
    You can find the full article here:

    If you get to step 5, I recommend backing up your iPad before performing the restore:

  • Ipad is stuck saying restoring in albums.

    ipad is stuck saying restoring in albums. pictures are showing up in photos but not in albums tab. I unchecked icloud both on the ipad and through computer. I even deleted icloud account off of ipad and still restoring will not go away. I tryed resynching to itunes with backup to computer checked. I tryed restarting ipad and restarting wifi. I just want to delete all photos and stop it from restoring.

    Try rebooting:  Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time for about 10 seconds (ignore the red slider to shut down) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons.  Your iPad should restart and you won't lose any data or settings.

  • My new IPad Air will not rotate screen

    My new ipad air will not rotate screens.  I am trying the lock or unlock but it makes no difference.

    Check out this link for operation of the side switch:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
    Also, pull up Control Center (swipe up from just above the Home button) and check the screen lock there (it should be at the top-left of the Control Center and looks like a padlock with a circular arrow).

  • IPad Air stuck - will I lose images?

    My iPad air seems to be stuck…on screen is the iTunes logo and image of the USB connection cord, when I connect it asks me to RESTORE factory settings, but I will lose all data. I took 800 photo's this week and it also seems my iCloud was not downloading the images, nor was my iMac. So I cannot lose the pics - HELP

    Were you doing an iOS update when this happened?

  • IPad Air stuck in recovery mode!

    Tried to update my iPad Air to iOS 8 this afternoon. Plugged into my brand new Macbook Air (about one month old), backed up to iTunes. Clicked to begin the update and install, left the room.
    Came back to find the iPad Air in recovery mode (iTunes logo and lightning cable on the screen). iTunes reporting that it has detected an iPad in recovery mode and needs to restore. Since I have a backup already, I go ahead and click on Restore iPad, and then Restore and Update (my only option besides Cancel).
    The progress window gets all the way to "Restoring iPad Software" and the progress bar starts to climb, but then I get the error message:
    "The iPad "iPad" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (9)."
    I've repeated this process many times, usually the error occurs right at the beginning of the progress bar, but one time it almost got to the end before giving me the error message.
    I read up on Error 9 and it says it may be something amiss with my security software. I have not installed any antivirus or firewall software. My firewall is off and always has been. Like I said, this is a pretty new Macbook Air, I've installed very few programs on it (Crashplan, Dropbox, Google Drive, Lightroom).
    Any thoughts on what to do? It's completely frustrating. My iPad's been bricked. ;(

  • New iPad Air Stuck

    Hi! I tried to download an app from iTunes and from the App Store on my new iPad Air.  After hitting "download" a pop-up screen appeared "Download Now," the name of the app, and "ok".  I've hit ok but nothing happens.  It's stuck.  Help!

    Try giving it a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds or so and see if it reboots.
