My ipad 4G has been locked by my child and I can't open it.
If your child set a passcode to the screen lock and cannot tell you what he/she set, restore the iPod from the computer to which the iPod is synced. For information and instructions, see:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
If that will not work, you'll need to put the iPod into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:

If that still doesn't work, as a last resort try DFU mode:

I have an ipad that has been 'locked up' since 10 a.m. cent. time this morning! I cannot do anything to get it to shut off or reset. What do I need to do?
First try a Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least Ten seconds... (But can take Longer)... until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons
If no joy... Try a Restore...
1: Connect the device to Your computer and open iTunes.
2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.

i have a ipad which has been locked due to the owner claiming it was lost. I have had the serial no. checked and it is not stolen but I can't use it. I have talked to the owner many times who refuses to give me the password or has no idea what password was used.
Unfortuinately there is nothing that can be done.
If its locked its locked. This is a theft deterrant mechanism.
If you could unlock "stolen" ipads then there would be no purpose for the feature.
You will have to convince the owner you bought it correctly, or accept its no lonnger usable by you until the original owner removes the lock. -

For the past week or two, my Mac Mail app for my iPad 2 has been stuck in vertical orientation. This is the only app that is similarly affected. Moreover, it will only orient itself such that the bottom is toward the menu button on the iPad. Please advise if you have a solution.
Try closing the Mail app via the taskbar and see if it rotates when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work also do a reset : 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 won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. -
iphoto has a question mark over it on my tool bar and I can't open it. What should I do?

Please help, I keep removing and installing itunes but I still can't open it. Every now and then it will let me in but I can't do everything that I should be able to do.
I gave my two cents on another forum post, but will also place it here. I figure why not, more eyes and all that.
Not sure if you solved your problem, you probably did since there is no follow-up. But since I am in the midst of this quaundary, I'll give you a little heads up. I think 13010 might be when iTunes can't find a library. This does not mean your music is missing as you can have your media folder (containing all your actual iTunes files) and your library folder (the database that organizes all of your media files) in separate locations. I recently got a new computer and first pointed to the new media location and then also iTunes started to download the itunes library but for some reason deemed it damaged and may have removed it from it's original location as it can no longer find the library folder in that location.
My problem is this, no other forum post has helped me much in regards to the 13010 error. I removed the extras and genius files and still got the 13010 error. I reinstalled iTunes and still the 13010 error. At this point I am willing to scrap everything just to get a factory fresh version of iTunes and then attempt to import all my old media into it and then reorganize it myself. But as far as I know, there is no easy way to do this. -
Dear Sir/Madam,
I tried the following but no success:
1. Unplug the sync cable from device.
2. Turned off device (slide to power off).
3. Pressed and hol the Home botton and pluged in the sync cable.
4. Hold Home button until "Connect to iTunes" but this message did not appear
So couldn't go any further than this.
Looking forward for your help please.
Kind regards,
