Our students have entered passcodes when downloading ios 7 update and now ipads are locked, help!

If the iPad is running iOS 7 and the kid set up Find My IPad, then you can't restore it without the kid's Apple ID and password. The Activation Lock is a feature that people whined and whined to get, and is causing exactly the sort of problems many of us predicted when people were clamoring for it. If you can't get the kid's Apple ID, you'll have to call Apple Support and ask if they have any sort of workaround. My guess is that they'll have to replace the iPad, but they may have a solution they don't talk about publicly.
This won't help for iPads currently locked for which you can't get the Apple ID, but if before you give out iPads to your students you go into the Restrictions and disallow changes to the accounts, they can't then turn in Find My iPad. Or you can set up Find My iPad yourselves to your own accounts and then lock the Restrictions so they can't set iCloud up to an account to which you don't have the Apple ID.
Regards.

Hi bhaity2014,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you are concerned that your iPhone 4 running iOS 7 may not be recognized in iTunes 12. Your iPhone 4 running iOS 7 should have no issues being recognized or syncing with iTunes 12. If it is not recognized in iTunes on your Windows computer, please use the attached article for troubleshooting assistance.

HT204053 Our family uses one Apple ID for all of our iPhones. We installed the update and now we are all getting each others photos and texts. How do we stop this?

I've got to agree with Allan. It sounds like the hard drive is corrupt at least. It's possible it might be physically failing. Without backups, it's possible your data is already gone. You need a professional to help you.
If you do not have an Apple Store near you or simply don't have the time to spare, there are some things you can try, but you must understand that it's possible these things could make the chances of recovering your data worse than they already are. Perform the instructions to follow at your own risk!
First, you can try repairing your hard drive with Disk Utility. If that works, see if you can start up the machine. If you can, the very first thing you need to do is back up any data you don't want to lose. You may still need to take other steps, as your system may be damaged as well, but getting the data is the important part.
If Disk Utility cannot repair the problems, you can try DiskWarrior. It can repair problems that Disk Utility cannot. However, it also increases the risk of destroying your data if it fails. If it works and you can start up the machine, do the same as I advised for following success with Disk Utility.
If repairs (with either) were successful, but the machine still won't start up, you can try reinstalling the system. Hold down command-R at startup and then just install right on top of the existing system. If all goes well, you'll be able to start up afterwards and can get your data backed up. If all goes badly, it'll further decrease the chances of getting your data back.
If neither can repair the damage, you're in bad shape. You will need a professional to help you, unless you are willing to lose all your data.

If they have a tech support line I'd call your university. EIther their stuff isn't working with iOS7 or maybe they have some insight as to why it doesn't work.

PS I'm still new to Macs so the more broken down the better.

Adobe Flash Player 11.8.800.42 is the most recent version from Adobe. It is a pre-release version. I am using it without any noticeable problems.
The current stable version is Download 11.7.700.169.

I downloaded ios 7, and now i need to accept something in the app-store, but i can't accept it, and now i can't download a thing from the appstore anymore, someone knows how to fix it?

Why can't it be accepted?
What is "it"?
If help is desired, stop being vague.

Hello, Robke100.
I would recommend trying the steps in the article below.
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Once these steps are processed, attempt to accept the terms and conditions.
Also, you can make a purchase via the iTunes Store on the computer. This should allow you to bypass accepting the terms and conditions on the device.
Cheers,
Jason H.

Error -1 is not mentioned in this article about error messages during a restore process: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
This one comes close:
The device could not be restored. An internal error occurred, or Error 3200: This indicates a network-connectivity or traffic issue. If you see this error, wait an hour or more and try again.
You may also check your security software settings, to make sure that iTunes can contact Apple servers during this process: iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues

I downloaded iOS 6 and now my iTouch has gone to ****.

As said, I downloaded iOS 6, and now my apple store crashes constantly, and I can't sync my music. I can't add music either.
My dad has a iPhone 4S, and he downloaded it. Everything is fine on his end.
Is this just me???

My touch is exactly the same, it wont sync new songs via a cable or over wifi. It wont connect to itunes and the pc cannot find it ever since I installed ios6. Absolute trash

I downloaded IOS 5 and now all of my apps are gone, how can I get them back?

I downloaded IOS 5 and now all of my apps are gone, how can I get them back?

You can get iTunes purchases back by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
For other items you need to get them from whee yuo got them the first time.
The iPod backup that iTunes makes does not include synced mediai like apps and music. If those ore not in the iTunes library on the computer on which you performed the update they are lost.

I have just downloaded an update and now I can't open Pages

I have just downloaded an update and now I cannot open Pages... Any advice?

I suppose at some point or other it might dawn on you that we don't seem to know what update you are referring to.
…and you might actually tell us.

I downloaded iOS 7 and now my notes won't sync with iCloud

I downloaded iOS 7 and now my notes won't sync with iCloud. Also, all of my notes on iCloud aren't on my phone anymore, but they are still on my computer. Can somebody please advise how to fix this issue? Thank you!

Sounds like they are being overwritten by the server as soon as you reconnect. With some effort you may be able to prevent this and recover your notes if you try the steps in Winston Churchill's post here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/22600445#22600445.
