Remote connection to iTunes hanging up on Verification of Passcode

I have followed all of the steps for connecting my brand new iPad with iTunes using Remote and Home Sharing. My iPad is able to use my wifi for all other functions. When I try to connect with iTunes, it hangs up on the passcode verification. It runs and runs until either my computer or my PC fall asleep. I have done the following:
1. Verified that Home Sharing is On for both iPad and iTunes.
2. Signed out and signed back into my Apple account.
3. Verified that my iPad and my computer are both signed in using the identical same password and ID.
4. Tried connecting with my firewall disabled.
5. Confirmed that my iPad is the only device connected to iTunes on this computer.
6. Restarted my iPad.
7. Reset my internet wifi router.
8. Restarted my modem.
Any ideas out there?

An update...
I have tried these steps since my previous post with no change. (My iTunes has now been verifying my passcode for 30 minutes to no avail.)
1. Disabled firewall, restarted iPad and computer.
2. Made TCP 3689 and UDP 5353 exceptions to allow the connections another document said that the programs require. Restarted...
3. Disabled IPv6. Restarted...
Help!

    You must restore it with iTunes.
    Try placing the iPod Touch into recovery mode.

  • Can't connect to itunes coz it's blocked with passcode

    newly bought ipad2 never been sync to itunes already disabled. Says connect to itunes, but itunes said cannot connect to itunes coz it's block with passcode. what should i do?

    You may need to put the iPad into recovery mode to be able to reset the iPad via youe computer's iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    If it hasn't been synced to a computer, then from here :
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.

  • My iphone has turned itself off and asking to be connected to itunes however i cant put the passcode in

    my iphone has turned itself off and asking to be connected to itunes however i cant put the passcode in for itunes to restore it as it will only let me make emergency calls. Any help?

    Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

  • My ipad is disabled and says connect to itunes. I dont know the passcode and I dont have access to a computer , can I restore it without connecting to itunes

    My ipad is disabled, I dont know the passcode and I dont have a computer to connect to itunes... is there anyway of reactivating ipad without connecting to itunes?

    Sorry but no. You will need to get access to a computer with iTunes somewhere to restore the iPad. You can get help with this at an Apple Store if you have them in your area. Note that if you haven't backed up your iPad to iCloud, you'll lose all your data. Apps and other purchases from the iTunes Store can probably be re-downloaded.

  • My iPad is disabled, but when I connect to iTunes it says it has a passcode and you need to enter it.  So how do I enter it if it's disabled.

    A student's iPad is managed by Meraki and the student acccidently disabled it.  Now when I connect to itunes on my Mac, it says that the iPad has a passcode.  But, you can not enter or do anything on the iPad since it is disabled.  I also tried in Meraki to erase the device or clear the passcode, but it only goes into a Pending queue.  Any help?

    ‘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 cancelling 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.

  • HT1212 i'm trying to enable my disabled mini when it connects to itunes it says it needs the passcode entered on the mini to continue.  i can't get on the mini.

    I'm trying to enable my disabled ipad mini.  When it connects to itunes and click on restore, it begins.  Then, less than half way through process it says I need to enter my passcode on the device to continue.  I can't get on my device to do so.  What do I do?

    Read the steps in the article you linked to these forums, it has the steps you need to take to restore the iPad in recovery mode.

  • IPod touch stuck on connect to iTunes screen, no way to enter passcode

    My son's 64 iPod Touch is stuck on the connect to iTunes screen.  We plugged it into the computer and followed the steps with the Home button explained in previous threads, but we can't even get into iTunes to launch recovery and restore.  It keeps saying the iPod is locked and that a passcode is required.  We know the passcode, but there is no place we can see where to enter it.  The computer should recognize the device too, since it's the same computer the iPod was synced to before, but it is still asking for a passcode.  The iPod is only 18 months old and has never been tampered with, all by the book.   So how do we get past this problem and into recovery and restore?  Apple website says they want $219 just to look at a device!  I already spent $500 to buy it, so hundreds more to make it work properly is not an option.  Help!

    That's just it.  I think its already in recovery mode.   But when I try to connect to iTunes to get to restore,  I don't get the message I'm supposed to get saying it recognizes a device in recovery mode.  All it says is that it knows the name of the iPod but can't connect it to iTunes because the iPod is locked.  It says I have to enter a passcode to unlock the iPod first.  But there's no way to enter the passcode, neither on the iPod or the computer.  How do I get out of this loop?  Tried to put it into DFU, but it asks for a passcode too.

  • Remote 2.0 will not connect with iTunes

    I have been trying to resolve this issue for many days and I can't find a solution that works anywhere.
    I have a PC running vista and iTunes 10 on a wireless home network. Remote 2.0 is on my iPhone 3G running iOS 4.1. I can't get iTunes to recognize that the remote app is running. When Remote shows the four digit passcode to enter - the remote will not show up in iTunes. I managed to connect the two once - but when I tried to repeat the connection immediately afterward it didn't work.
    -I have the Apple remote ports open through the firewall (disabling the McAffee firewall doesn't change anything anyway)
    -The devices ARE on the same network (I can connect to Air Sharing via windows explorer)
    -iTunes is checked to "look for remotes"
    -It doesn't matter whether I try to connect using Home Sharing or not
    -I have tried to "Forget all remotes/connections" in iTunes and the iPhone.
    Any ideas as to what is going on? I know it can work because it did once - but only once.

  • Itunes hangs every time i connect iphone3G on every computer i plug it into

    Hi all
    I am having a problem...itunes hangs literally every time i connect iphone3G on every computer i plug it into.. I use windows XP and have even just bought a brand new laptop, installed itunes and it does the same on that. It indicates to me that the lead may be faulty (tried different lead and same issue) or there's something in the phone OS that tries to start but doesn't when plugged in ...
    When i do ctrl alt del and crash out of itunes the iphone happily charges itself so its not the USB ports...oh and i have left it running for hours so it's not a time issue...
    I am at my wits end.

    I have not seen a blue screen. iTunes simply hangs, forever, until I crash it.
    I have tried on multiple different computers and it happens on all of them. ItUnes runs fine but when i try to connect it iTunes hangs. I have also tried plugging it in before and after iTunes kicks in but the result is the same.
    This of course means that I cannot update the OS or download/organise music...eeek

  • My friend changed the password on my ipod touch lock, aI have tried multiple times to input the correct password. But I attempted too many times and I was locked out. The screen is red and says "connect to itunes'. But I cant connect to itunes.

    My friend changed the password on my ipod touch. And now I am locked out because I tried too many times. I can no longer put in a password, and I can't connect to itunes because it says "must input passcode first before connecting", even though the ipod says to connect to itunes

    Place the iPod into recovery mode in order to restore the iPod with iTunes.

    Any ideas ?

  • HT1212 I am trying to restore my ipad (disabled and connect to itunes), but when going through the steps, it's asking me for my passcode.  I can't put that in because it's disbled.  This is the WORST product and product instructions I have ever dealt with

    My ipad is disabled and it tells me to connect to itunes.  However, once I've connected to iTUNES, it ask me for my passcode and of course, I can't put that in because my ipad is disabled.  I am ready to throw this iPad out the window.  Wll never buy another one.

    FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
    1. Turn off iPad
    2. Turn on computer and launch iTune (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 iTune and plug.
    5. Release Home button.
    ON COMPUTER
    6. iTune has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTune.
    7. Select "Restore iPad"...
    Note: Data will be lost
