Is this the problem:
Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes): This issue is typically caused by out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software. Please followTroubleshooting security software issues if USB troubleshooting does not resolve this issue.

Connect the Device to the iTunes library you Usually Sync with, open iTunes, click on the Device tab that appears in the Left side column of iTunes, Select your Device, then go to the Summary Page and click Restore.

1) If iPad is not connected with computer or plug for charge then it just showing me red low bettery symbol
2) If i connect it for charging with apple laptop or windows or power plug alwys keep restarting and never showing me the home screen with apps.
I tried with hard restore using DFU mode for iOS 7.1 and all process is done also but still it is keep restarting and battery simbol if not connected.
My iPad is not jailbroaken so no any third party software is there.
I dont know where i stuck in this issues mostly i tried with each solution i tried with different computers , different cables and all.

Hello, Nectar bits.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I see you have tried some troubleshooting steps already with there issue persisting. Here are some additional troubleshooting steps to go through when experiencing this issue. They are labeled for the iPhone, but apply to the iPad as well.
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
If the issue persists, see the section labeled Issue not resolved.

Ipad 2 stuck in connect to itunes mode

My ipad 2 was updating to 5.1.1, is stuck in connect to itunes mode and cant be restarted nor switched off and itunes is not able to recognize my device.. it has been like this for the past hour!!! i even updated to the latest itunes to try to make my ipad 2 work... Can anyone help please??

Firstly, make sure that your device is not hidden (left hand pane). If it just reads device then toggle between SHOW and HIDE.
Secondly, try all the other ports on your computer, even a number of times.
Thirdly, if you have another computer try plugging your device into it without taking any action, give it a moment, remove it and try it back in your other computer again.
Failing all that, see here - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 for Windows and http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591 for Macs

IPad 3 stuck in "Connect to iTunes" screen after attempting to update to iOS6.0

Tried to update to iOS 6.0, and the iPad 3 is stuck on the "Connect to iTunes" screen. After plugging it back in and connecting it, iTunes recognizes it, and sees it in Recovery mode. Nothing has worked so far. I've tried:
1. connecting to another MacMini and trying to restore (same (-1) error)
2. Deleted the iPad software update from the library and tried to download and restore again. (same (-1) error)
3. one hour on the phone with applecare tech support. multiple things tried: holding the sleep/wake and home buttons ect... (same (-1) error)
Has anyone else seen this? I noticed someone else asked the same question, and someone offered a blank link.
I'll try anything.
Thanks guys

Yes, thank you though.
I've done that roughly 30 times over the last 8 hours. That was one of the methods I tried with AppleCare Tech support.
The biggest issue I'm seeing is that the device can't BE turned off. Holding the slep wake button does nothing. The "Connect to iTunes" screen (usb to iTunes logo) seems to be stuck on the screen, unless it's going through the restore process.
When I go through the restore steps via iTunes, it gets all the way to the "Installing Firmware" portion, (roughly about 75% done according to the ipad screen, and thats when the error message pops up again.
I even just tried doing the whole thing from a PC and got the same message.
...I touched a PC...
...Must sterilize hands...
thanks for the reply though.
Hopefully, I can figure something out, or I might have to make a two hour drive to an apple store to get a replacement.

How do I save files from iPad to Dropbox without connecting to computer?

I understand how to move files from iPad to a computer using email or ITunes. I would like to be able to save a word processing file directly from my iPad wirelessly to my Dropbox folder. I have tried several apps without success, including Pages Copy to WebDav (I get an error even though I think I have entered the user name and password right; is there a special way to designate the server address). Anyway is there a method or an app that will allow me to save a Word or text file from Ipad to Dropbox. Thanks for your help.

I assume that you have Pages and the DropBox app on the iPad ... so do this and it will work.
From Pages - email the file to yourself. Tap the Wrench icon and select Share and Print - and then select Email Document. Select the file type from the pop up window - then email the document.
Go to the mail app - open the email - tap and hold down on the document icon - select Open in - Open in DropBox.

Why iPad 2 is not connecting my computer and iTunes

I can't connect it

Are you on a windows pc or a mac? Ive had this issue on my PC. Try restarting the Apple mobile device service.

Stuck on "connect to itunes" screen after trying to update

Update was interupted because of "unknown error"
Now my Ipad is stuck on "Connect to Ituns"
Have tried to reset by holding both buttons for a long time but still only returns to Connect to Itunes sceen.
Itunes does not recognize the ipad.
Anyone any ideas exept for turning it in for service

Makes sure you disable any antivirus or software firewall on your desktop. They can get in the way of the update, causing this problem.
Have you actually got the update downloaded yet? If not, it might be helpful to download and install separately

IPad stuck on "Connect to iTunes" screen after iOS 8.0.2 Update

Attempted to update to iOS 8.0.2 last night on my 4th Gen iPad. After verifying the download, the iPad instructed me to "Connect to iTunes". Once connected, iTunes stated that my iPad was in need of a restore, which I attempted to do so. Upon "extracting software" iTunes states that it cannot recognize my device and fails the restore. My iPad is still stuck on "Connect to iTunes" screen.
So far I've:
Attempted restore on iTunes 3 times
Attempted hard restart (reboot) by holding home button and top button down for ten seconds.
Don't know what else to do, Please Help!!!!

FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER
6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...
Note:
1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.
3. Repeat the process if necessary.
