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.
 Cheers, Tom

  • Does anyone have any idea when Apple will have one Global App store. In South Africa the apps available on the App Store are pathetic, eg. Angry Birds is not available to Iphone/ipad users here, however android users can purchase this app no problem.

    If this continues, with the competition in the smart phone/android market, South Africans will start to can Apple devices due to the pathetic App Store for South Africa. The most popular games and Apps are not available here and until Apple get smart and make a Global Store for purchases not matter where you are in the world, Apple will continue to loose support. I have everything Apple, but am tired of the run around to try and buy good Apps.

    If you will allow me to say so ... Calm down. 
    It really isn't the fault of Apple.  The developers of apps, the writers of music and of books all have copyright or exclusivity deals through agents in order to market their creations.
    These arrangements are usually conducted on an individual national basis and as a result what would be allowed in one country is not allowed in another if that is what the agent wants.
    Apple has to negotiate through this mire to get the best deal it can yet always accepting that many other interested parties want similar privileges.
    So you can see, like politics, world wide agreements are just not possible.

  • I have no idea what is going on with my macbook

    Ok, so I downloaded soulseekqt a few days ago because I was after this song I couldn't find anywhere else, and recently some weird stuff has happened on my macbook, and I think it may have something to do with this program or something I downloaded off it.
    In the download dock, when I click on a folder that's recently downloaded it opens up Microsoft Outlook or Powerpoint, or Textwrangler instead of the actual folder I click on. I can only access the folder if I browse manually through finder. Then I restarted the computer today and I suddenly can't open up iPhoto or Textedit - there's a barrier icon in front of it and I get a "You can't open the application "_____" because it is not supported on this type of mac".
    I have removed soulseek and currently running a virus scan, but never experienced something like this before and don't know what's happened, could someone enlighten me?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    First of all, I would recommend you to do a SMC reset > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964 Battery issues are sometimes fixed by doing that, so it is worth trying it.
    However, the X icon in the battery bar means that OS X does not detect any battery inside your Mac, so when you unplug it from the charger it automatically turns off. If the SMC reset does not solve anything, I would recommend you to take the Mac to an Apple Store or reseller because there's probably a hardware issue.

  • Ok guys i need help my ipod touch froze during an update now i put it inot the recovery mode or dfu and it will not reset itself at all it comes up with an error code and says this ipod cannot reset now does anyone have any ideas of what to do with it

    Error 1604
    This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
    If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
    Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode,put it into Recovery Mode.
    Restore and wait for the error.
    When prompted, click OK.
    Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
    The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
    Try to restore again.
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
    Error 1600, 1601, 1602
    Error 1603
    Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. Also, discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps under Advanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations.If you do not want to remove the IPSW in the original user, try restoring in a new administrator user. If the issue remains, Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.

  • Does anyone have an idea what may be wrong with my iphone 4S?

    My iphone 4S has started turning itself off completely.  When I power it back up, it allows me to log in my code and when I push the enter button it turns itself completely off again.  I am trying to decide if it can be fixed or should I just buy a new iphone?  This AM it is working just fine??????
    If anyone knows or has a guess as to what is wrong with it, I would appreciate your input.

    Restore your phone, as described here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
    DO NOT restore from backup, rather sync your content back to your phone. If doing this doesn't fix things, you most likely have a hardware issue.

  • I have an idea for Apple's iPhone!!!

    I think it would be super cool if the charger was wireless, then people wouldn't complain about the cord being so short. Also, now you have extra space because the charger is wireless, so they should allow a micro SD card or just a normal one to be put in there. That would allow people to have more spce on their phone and it would make it a lot easier to dowload it to a computer. If you could use an SD card, whenever your phone became full of pictures and you can't take any more photos you could just take out the SD card and put in another one. I really hope Apple reads this and thinks about it. I'm a huge fan and so are my parents, but they're starting to think about switching to Galaxy. I'm not saying Galaxy is bad, I'm just saying that I think the iPhone is better and they need to get really creative so people don't have anything bad to say about it. Please hear me out, PLEASE!!!! I really do hope Apple reads this....thank you.

  • I used to drag and drop newly loaded CD's from Recently Added to one of my iPod Classic playlists. I have no idea how to do this with the new version of iTunes. I thought perhaps checking Sync might give me a clue but it warned me Syncing would wipe conte

    I used to drag and drop music loaded from CD's from the Recently Added folder to a Playlist on my iPods Classic. Can't see how to do this with new iTunes version. Probably need to sync somehow but when I checked on Sync it warned me it would wipe out my iPod contents. Don 't know why Apple makes something that used to be simple so difficult. Can't even figure out how to display both my library and iPod contents on same screen.

    Hey joshuafromisr,
    If you resintall iTunes, it should fix the issue. The following document will go over how to remove iTunes fully and then reinstall. Depending on what version of Windows you're running you'll either follow the directions here:
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP

    or here:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7

  • Can I have more than one Apple ID associated with my profile?

    We bought an iPod and an iPad for my wife to use.  She shares them with me.  I recently bought an iMac, which I use alone.  And we both bought iPhones.  Can we share a profile?  The iPod and an iPad are associated with her apple ID.  The iMac is registered under my apple ID.  But I am the one who troubleshoots for answers to any problems.

    Yes.

  • I am having trouble with iTunes (possible Quartz Composer Visualizer problem) but have no idea how to fix it.

    I tried to use my iTunes but the icon didn't show up and instead I get a folder. The folder is titled TunesApp and in it is another folder called Contents. Contents contains: _CodeSignature, Frameworks, Info.plist, MacOS, PkgInfo, Resources, and version.plist. In the folder MacOS is my iTunes and I can use it, but I get this message:
    Last login: Sun Feb 24 13:13:15 on ttys000
    unknown705681bcc901:~ kathrynbarber$ /TunesApp/Contents/MacOS/iTunes ; exit;

    Version from driver for Certificates 1
    I can only use my iTunes as long as I keep the message open. When I close the message it tells me: "Closing this window will terminate the running processes: login, bash, iTunes." I have no idea what is going on with it as it was working not too long ago. I do not think I updated it recently but I could be wrong. Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thank you!

    Sounds like your computer is having additional issues.  I suggest taking it to your nearest Apple Store.

  • HT4623 I upgraded my ipad to ios 7 and it's one requesting a passcode  have no idea what it is because I never had a passcode. Tried to connect to iTunes on my mac but still won't work

    I upgraded my ipad to ios 7 and now it's asking for a passcode. Have no idea what to enter because I never needed a passcode. Connected it to iTunes on my mac but still doesn't work

    Hi Lmprettyman,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    This article has more information on passcode lock and how to return your iPod to working order:
    iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
    If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer
    If you see one of following alerts, you need to erase the device:
    "iTunes could not connect to the [device] because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the [device] before it can be used with iTunes."
    "You haven't chosen to have [device] trust this computer"
    If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
    Alternatively, place the device in recovery mode and restore it to erase the device:
    Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to shut down.
    While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
    iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.
    All the best,
    Jeremy
