You've connected the iPad via cable to your computer, and your computer's iTunes is up-to-date ? If it's icon isn't showing then try one of these troubleshooting pages :
PC : iPhone, iPad, or iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support
Mac : If you don't see your connected device in iTunes for Mac - Apple Support
If the iPad is disabled then you'll need to reset the iPad back to factory defaults, after which you can restore to your backup

TS4268 IMessaging on iPad mini to "iPod registered to email address" user

I have an android phone and a Macbook air running 10.7.5. I recently bought an iPad Mini and am trying to use iMessage on it. So far noone with an iphone has responded to any messages I have sent! so I am wondering if it is working….
I have 2 Apple ID"s - one for itunes and one for icloud (but I don't use icloud). My Apple ID for the ipad mini is linked to a non-icloud email address and my android cell #. When I go to the "receive at" option for messages on the iPad there is only one option - my Apple ID email address. I realise I can't use my cell# to receive iMessages as it is not an iphone, but why is there no field to enter a phone number (if I did have an iphone) showing up?
I want to iMessage from the iPad mini with someone who uses Ipod for iMessaging, but even though I use their registered-to-iMessage email address, when I enter it into the "To:" field, it turns red, and I get a message that their email "is not registered with iMessage". I know they are already using it to iMessage other people so what am I doing wrong???

Do you have another Apple ID? If so and if that is the email address that you are trying to add, it is not going to work.

Forgot my password to get into my ipad mini.

I forgot my password to my IPad mini and I tried to get in many times, its gotten to the point where it says to contact iTunes instead of giving a time period to wait. I have searched for answers and they all say sync with your computer or something, I have no idea what that means, so SIMPLE INSTRUCTIONS PLEEAASSEE.

‘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 canceling 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.

IMessage on iPad Mini. One has iPhone number, one does not??

OK, so we bought two iPad Mini's and we both have iPhone 4S. iMessage is supposed to send msg's between the devices, correct? Well, when I set-up mine, I did not have the option to include my phone number when I used my Apple ID (yes, the number is in the settings for my Apple ID). When my wife set her's up, it did give her the option of using the phone number associated with her Apple ID. As a result, messages get sent to both her devices, but not to mine, unless only the email associated with the Apple ID is used.
You can clearly see by the two pictures the differences I described above (minus the specific ID information).
My Question: How do I get my phone number onto my iPad Mini?

Update ipad mini 3 ios 8.2 on itunes - windows 7, got error code 0xE800001C, plz help me...And i want to use my second phone number (not the same number as my iphone5s..) to use it as the numbers in iMessage for this ipad mini 3...is it possible?

My pictures get shuffled into wrong events when syncing to iPad mini. Any suggestions?

Photos are sorted by date modified when you sync from iTunes. If you have them arranged out of date sequence, they will not sync that way onto the iPad. You can read more here.

Can you iMessage between iPad mini and a non-apple hone?

Not clear to me whether an iPad mini can iMessage to non-Apple products. Or only mini to iPhone, another iPad etc?if, how to set up. Can't find way to enter phone #

IMessages works only with other iOS devices and Mac computers running Mountain Lion or Mavericks.
You can add an iPhone number to use as your contact address as long as the phone number is associated with your Apple ID. Settings> Messages>Send & Receive at>Yoy can be reached by iMessages at.
If your phone number is not showing in that settings, sign out of Messages on the iPhone and the iPad Mini, then sign in again on the phone first and then the number should be accessible for you to use on the iPad.
This kb article explains how to link your phone number to Messages and FaceTime.

Extracting photos from imessage on ipad mini

How do I get photos that are sent through Messages on an ipad mini to anywhere else? If I tap/hold on the photo, it says "Copy" but then I don't know where I could copy it to?
Can someone help with this?

Obviously the phone numbers must be linked with one Apple ID or they would not show up. This will explain how to add your iPhone number to the list and how to remove the others if you do not want them to appear.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

IMessage on iPad mini

IiMessage activation error occurred during activation after updating to iOS 8. I have gone into setting to enter password. I have no other issues with my password in any other applications

The problem might be that your Apple ID is not added in your friends' Contacts app as an email address. Just tell the, to add it.
Hope that helped :)
