My ipad says ipad 2 is disabled connect to itunes.... i havent sync it yet in itunes before i dont even have backup files for my pictures, i dont want to lose the pictures of my niece who just past away. Pls. help me.

what shall i do with this?? the pictures are very much important for me and i cant just simply lose them.

If it's showing the 'connect to iTunes' screen then unfortunately it's too late to copy the photos, or any other content, off it - you can try a soft-reset (i.e. a reboot) of the iPad, but I doubt that it will make any difference : 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 haven't been backing up to icloud instead of to a computer ?
In order to reset the iPad you will need to connect it to a computer's iTunes, and you may need to put the iPad into recovery mode in order to be able to reset it : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
Depending upon what country that you are in you might then be able to re-download some/all of your iTunes downloads via the Purchased tabs in the iTunes and App Store apps, and the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in the iBooks app.

If you're really trying to use Windows 2000, then that's the problem. As you'll see on the box, you need at least XP/SP3.

How can I sync my iPad to a computer after syncing it to the iCloud? I have the option of setting it up new, or restoring to a sync from many months ago. I dont want to lose any apps but I would like to back up on computer. No auto sync like other devices

Plug it into your computer. Tell it to sync with "this computer" instead of iCloud. You shouldn't have to remove any apps. Otherwise, you can save the app data by using i-FunBox ( http://www.i-funbox.com/ ) just go to the "devices" tab and select 'user applications' and select all of your apps and tell iFunBox to "copy to pc" you're done! You have them all backed up.

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

I have an existing mini mac and 4 tb external drive.
My iTunes library exists on the external drive under /itunes...
I have purchased a new mini mac and I want to leave the library where it is on the external drive but move to new mini mac and have it show as it did on the old mini mac..
what do i need to do ?
I have found multitude of articles about moving itunes to external drive or other similar things but I don't want to move itunes from the external drive, just change mini mac machines and have everything in itunes the same..
Thanks

I had already tried that one and got this...
below is screen shot of what is on the new mac mini
and what is on the external drive now connected to the new mac mini..
There are no media files on the mac mini just the library files and on external just media files..
Do I need to copy anything over from the old mac mini ? xml files ? .. the itunes folder on old mini is about 840mb in size which looks to have artwork ect ? .. I am fairly computer literate, but this one has me stumped.. ?
thanks for help

I have a new computer and want to sync my phone to the new but dont want to lose the information. how do i transfer

i have a new computer and want to sync my phone to the new but dont want to lose the information. how do i transfer. i was told there was a way but not sure how

for the purchased items from the iTunes Store, you could use transfer of purchases
for the photos, other music/movie not from itunes, you'll be needing a third party application
for contacts, calendars , photos from camera roll : you could just directly transfer it from your phone to the computer.

You're using a Mac computer?
You are always at risk of losing your music. If you are worried about it now too it means you don't have a backup. Get one. Soon.

It's in recovery mode. Anything on the phone is already gone. If you didn't back it up as you should have been, then the data is permanently lost.

should I do a full reset of TM (per the instructions at the link below) prior to setting up the TC?
I'd start by just selecting the new destination. Do the "full reset" if you have trouble with that.
do I need to set up the network portion first and then turn on TM?
That might make things easier.
even though my mini was previously only connected wirelessly to the old router, I plan to connect via Ethernet to the TC (for one thing, to make the initial backup run faster). Do I just turn AirPort settings off on the mini, or does that need to be on in order to setup the TC?
To assure that your first backup is over Ethernet I'd turn off AirPort until it's done. Check the order in the Network panel of System Preferences. I'd move the Ethernet connection item to the top of the list.
In other words, does the initial setup of the TC from my mini happen wirelessly or over Ethernet?
Either way should work fine.
I currently have a networked printer conneceted to my old router, which I will connect via Ethernet to the TC. Can I assume that, once I have set up all of my family's PCs/Macs/iDevices on the newly-established TC network, that I will have to re-establish connection to the printer as well?
Not necessarily. I'd only do that if the printer isn't available after the switchover.
I would like to reformat the second external drive (the one previously being used for TM backups) for possible reuse with another computer. Can I simply reconnect this to my mini and reformat?
That's what I'd do.
is TM going to see it and try to back it up?
If you've already reconfigured Time Machine to use the Time Capsule drive, there shouldn't be a problem.

I forgot my password, and i said ipod is disabled conect to itunes. I dont want to erase anything but can u give me my passwrd or help me. please.

I forgot my password, and it said ipod is disabled conect to itunes. i dont want to delete anything. but is there is a way u can ee my password, so i can get in and take off my password. Please help

If you forgot your screen-lock passcode then there is no way that I know to get stuff out of the iPod. It is a security feature. Your only recourse is to restore the iPod which eraases the current content of the iPod.
