You may have to do this several times.
Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

  • TS2634 My iPad is now disabled because someone entered the wrong passcodes too many times.  I connected to iTunes and I got an error code that the iPad's passcode needs to be entered.  What do I do now?

    My iPad2 was being used by my wife.  She put a passcode on it.  She hasn't used this iPad for a while and forgot the passcode.  She entered what she thought was the 4 digit passcode but the iPad did not accept it.  She tried different combinations and eventually disabled the iPad.  Now it has this message:  "iPad is disabled connect to iTunes".  I connected it to iTunes and iTunes is asking for the passcode to be entered into the iPad before it can be synced?  I can't enter the passcode because the iPad is disabled.  Please help how I can solve this.  Thanks.

    You may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 - you should then be able to reset the iPad and resync/restore your content to it.

    Sorry, there is nothing you can do.
    FYI: Damage like that is not covered by warranty, & all Apple will offer you is an out of warranty replacement...cost, in the US, for an iPhone 4, is US $149.

  • My ipod is stuck on the apple logo and won't let me connect to itunes to reset it what do i do?

    My ipod is stuck on the apple logo and won't let me connect to itunes to reset it what do i do?

    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.

    Hi Guys,
    I havent touched my Iphone 4s in ages (about a month). I came back to it the other day. I forgot the password, so naturally it disabled it and is telling me to connect to iTunes. In the meantime, i had got a new computer and didnt back up the itunes files (because im an idiot). So now when i connect it to iTunes it tells me to verify it on the phone, but i cant get in there because it is disabled. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!!! I HAVE NO IDEA ON HOW TO FIX IT!! I've tried to restore it, I've tried to jailbreak it. NOTHING works!! PLEASE HELP!!!

  • Not enough storage on icloud and iphone 5s won't connect to itunes

    my iphone 5s is out of storage in icloud. i can't back up my phone with icloud and i've tried to delete photos and apps and emails and it hasnt made a dent. and my iphone won't connect to itunes on my computer. i've connected my phone to my computer before and iv tried everything i know to get it to connect but it wont, and the question will pop up on my phone if i want to trust my computer and i say trust because iv done it before but it still wont connect! please help.

    When you delete camera roll photos, it doen't reduce your iCloud storage because camera roll photos are only stored on your device.  It will reduce the size of your next backup though because the camera roll is included in the backup.  (Deleting photo stream photos won't make any difference because they are not stored in your iCloud account.)  That's why I was asking if you saw a reduction in the estimated size of your next backup after deleting camera roll photos.  You can see the estimated size of your next backup by going to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, then tap the name of your device under Backups and look under Backup Options.  This same screen gives you a list of the amount of data being used by the camera roll and your apps in the next backup, with the option to exclude these from the backup.
    Deleting email should reduce your iCloud storage as it is stored in your iCloud account.
    You're probably going to have problems backing up 4 devices to the same iCloud account without purchasing additional storage.  Most device backups are in excess of 1GB.  Four device would probably exhaust your free 5GBs of storage, leaving you no room for email, contacts, calendars, notes and other synced data.  If you don't need to share the same data with all four devices, another option would be to migrate some (or all) of them to separate accounts, giving them 5GB of free storage each.  Another option would be to backup some of the device to your computer using iTunes rather than iCloud.
    This article provides some suggestions on ways to reduce your iCloud storage: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4847.

  • My itunes said I needed an update, I unplugged the ipod touch and reset everything. When "connect to itunes" showed on the screen, I plugged it back in and Itunes no longer recognizes it.  I tried 4 usb cables, 4 different computers, all new itunes

    I've gone through all the troubleshooting of restarting computers & itunes and updating itunes.  Trying to put in to DFU mode.  I've tried everything.   iTunes just doesnt recognize this ipod.   I have multiple ipods/iphones, and everything else works.   I am eliminating the people who are saying it's a broken pin, that cannot be it, because immediately before that moment, it was connected, everything on my ipod was listed in iTunes.  It just promted me to update to 6.0.1 (or whatever the most recent is)  I also seen a lot of issues posted on the web of people who had jailbroken phones.  This ipod touch is standard, there were no jailbreaks or anything used ever.  
    There was a program called Wondershare Dr.Fone, which is said to be a photo recovery tool for ipods, to retrieve recently deleted photos.  (Guess I shouldn't have been trying to do that)  I downloaded this trial and when it opened it stated that Itunes and this could not run at the same time.  It shut down iTunes automatically.  At that point, I didn't do anything more with the Wondershare Dr. Fone, I didn't try to run the program or anything.  iTunes prompted me that the device needed to be upgraded to 6.0.1.  I had an option to download or download and install the updated 6.0.1 from Itunes.  I clicked on download only.  So iTunes was downloading the new version from my iPod Touch.  I shut it down the Wondershare Dr. Fone, unplugged the iphone from itunes/computer, went in to settings and did a master reset.  I plugged the device back in to the computer when the iTunes logo and usb came on the screen, and the computer/iTunes doesn't recognize it anymore.  I've tried 4 different usb cables and four different comuters all with up to date iTunes software.  I did not break the port either, nothing is inside the port, or blocking it in anyway.  All 4 computers and usb cables connected fine to other ipods and iphones.  
    So the questions are:
    How can I get my ipod out of restore mode (iTunes logo and usb cord sybol) without iTunes recognizing it?
    What could I have possibly done to this ipod? 
    Why doesn't anyone have the answer anywhere on the internet?
    (Note:  Even if the Ipod is placed in DFU mode, iTunes does not recognize it) 
    Please help!

    Me & My UnRestorable IPOD TOUCH

    Hello Philly,
    I believe that when you reset your ipod(command given from the computer, right?)  touch WHILE the ipod was updating, It cleared the system in the middle of writing files, thus corrupting(equivalent of cutting of in the middle of a sentence) the basic running system.
    I suggest you go to an apple store and ask for a technical diagonosis in person. they may offer to help if the problem is fixable. If your ipod is still under warrenty, i would guess it would be free/low cost.
    ~Remember, I am just giving an educated guess on limited information

  • I have an apple ipad 1 and suddenly I can't connect to itunes says cannot allocate memorary what do I do, I have an apple ipad 1 and suddenly I can't connect to itunes says cannot allocate memorary what do I do

    I  have an ipad 1 and all was fine until the other day and now I can't connect to itunes a box pops up saying cannot allocate memory, what does this mean and howdo I fix it

    Try quitting all apps and restart your iPad. Maybe you are running out of memory on the iPad. It's worth a try.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Or try a reset,
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
