TS3274 iPad installed the new os update now cannot unlock

After the new os update installed you were required to create a Passcode to access the iPad, not allowed to complete the update without doing so. When typing one the system did not alllow me to finish typing saying after the first 4 or 5 letters "it was not secure enough" and took it as the passcode. Now it will not except the code and there is no prompt to reset it. I have tried numerous passcodes thinking it was referencing a previous one but all were rejected timing me out to try again later.
How can I retreive what was accepted or create a new one.?

Although it is not prominently displayed, there is an option to skip the passcode setup.
Unfortunately, there is no way to decipher what the passcode is so you will need to reset it:
If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
Alternatively, place the device in recovery mode and restore it to erase the device:
Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to shut down.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.
Forgotten Passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode

    Sorry. There's nothing anyone can do. The current version of the facebook app will not run on 4.2.1. The iPhone 3G won't run anything higher than 4.2.1. You're stuck.
    Maybe it's time to buy yourself a new iPod Touch.

  • Trying to install the new itunes update and it keeps saying error could not install itunes. Currently I am running windows 7. Any advise to fix this problem.

    Trying to install the new itunes update and it keeps saying error could not install itunes. Currently I am running windows 7. Any advise to fix this problem. This is doing this when installing itunes/quicktime, safari 5, mobileme control panel, and the software update itself. The itunes version is 10.3.1

    That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

  • TS3716 installed the new itunes and now my ipod nano  does not show in the device menu

    installed the new itunes and now my ipod nano  does not show in the device menu

    There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
    The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
    If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
    Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
    Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:

  • I have the original ipad. I can't delete my photos from the ipad, and the new itunes update does not give me the option to sync photos. What do I do?

    I have the orignal ipad. I synced all my photos from my computer onto. Now I don't have enough storage on my ipad so I want to delete these photos. When I try from my ipad it only gives me the option to share or copy, NOT DELETE. I went to resync my ipad to itunes, after I downloaded the new version and now it doesn't give me an option to sync photos. How do I get rid of them?

    Wow.  That's weird.
    Is your iPad jailbroke?  If it is, all bets are off.  If it is not jailbroke, keep reading.
    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • I just downloaded the new Java update now Safari is slow and I'm getting the spinning beach ball of death.

    Typing in Safari with the new Java update that I downloded today causes the spinning beach ball and slow loading of pages. As usual, Java is causing problems. Just once I would like to see things run without having to depend on Java.

    24Golfer:
    I think there's something more, because it keeps happening to me with the Finder where it says that it is not responding when I go to the Force Quit window.
    Are you saying that the Finder is reported as not responding? If yes, try this:
    Go to Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.finder.plist
    Drag com.apple.finder.plist to desktop
    Restart computer.
    Monitor to see if anything changes, or Finder is still not responding.
    Good luck.

  • How do i install the new iphone update?

    the new update 5 isnt coming up on my itunes, when i check for updates it just says the the 4.2.1 is the latest! how do i install the update?

    Remember you need itunes 10.5 first. Instead of using the update button on the summary screen, go up to Help then Check for Updates. A window should pop up checking the version of itunes first, then for the iphone. I suggest selecting Download Only for the iphone file update, then clicking Update later after the download.

  • I'm not able to install the new Java update

    I have a MacPro 2.8 Intel Core Duo 8GB 500GB HD with Mac OS 10.6.8 installed and every time that I try to install the sugested update from my mchine I receive an error message as: " The update could not be expanded, and may have been corrupted during downloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time the Software Update runs"
    I already restarted more than three times and cleaned all system with Onyx but continue to receive the same message.
    Is there anybody there with the same issue that I'm having? Any help?
    Thank you in advance for any light on this issue!

    Check out all software you have that uses Java, like software that that uses database connections (using JDBC).
    Several people are reporting that the latest Java update (_29) breaks their critical software.
    The solution for at least one was to re-install a "combo updater" from and earlier age (earlier than the _29 update) to re-instate the previous Java.
