Unlock an iPad without connecting it to the computer

I work for a tutoring company that uses the ipad for the tutoring program. One of our students secretly set a passcode on the ipad, the teacher did not find out until the next tutoring session when she went to use it.
Because our ipads come from the corporate site in another state, we do not have access to the computer these ipads were synced on. We don't have iTUnes on our computers here in our center.
Is there a way to unlock this ipad without connecting it to the computer and using iTunes?

You nee a computer.

  • Unlock ipad without connecting to internet

    how do you unlock an ipad without connecting to internet.  I cannot download iTunes on my work computer.

  • How do i unlock my ipad without using the passcode

    is it possible to unlock you ipad without a password

    No.
    If you have forgotten the iPad passcode and you cannot unlock the device, you have to restore the device within iTunes. You want to use the same computer that you always sync with so that you can restore your app data and settings. You can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the iPad.
    Instructions can be found here.

    You will probably need to restore using Recovery Mode. You can read about it here.

    ‘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.

    You can't unless you have a backup on your computer or iCloud.. If you have important files on your iPad, you should always make frequent backups.

  • HT1414 Is it possible to restore ipad or unlock an ipad without loosing purchases?

    Is it possible to restore ipad or unlock an ipad without loosing purchases? I do not own the ipad, it has not been synced to my itunes.

    It is always a good idea to sync your iPad periodically and keep a backup of all documents you've created. Syncing also creates a backup of all your purchased apps. It is quick and easy to get the apps back from iTunes on the computer you sync with. But even if that doesn't work you can always download previously purchased app again without paying for them.

    You can also go to Settings > General > Usage > Videos > Tap edit and Tap delete.
    If you wish to redownload, go to iTunes App and then tap Purchased. In the header tap Film/TV Series and then click the little cloud with the arrow through it. It will then download onto the iPad again.

    I own a 13-inch MacBook Pro and for the past day, my wifi on my laptop says I only have two bars of connection and is running very slow,but all of my other devices such as my iPhone and iPad are connecting perfectly to the wifi. How can I fix this? I have tried to shut my laptop off and let it rest and I have also re-started my wifi router three different times. Someone please help me with this problem so I can begin to use my laptop again as I take it to school and use it for class.
    Thanks so much!

    FCP, and all software on OSX, has a few different "preference" files (the extension is .plist), which store all your user settings. Each time you resize a window, change a setting, anything, this file is re-written. Kinda easy to see how they would become corrupt every now and then.
    -Close FCP
    -Navigate to User>Library>Preferences and delete com.apple.FinalCutPro.plist
    -Navigate to User>Library>Preferences>Final Cut Pro User Data and delete Final Cut Pro 5.0 Prefs
    -Empty your trash
    Relaunch FCP and see if that worked.
    Download FCP Rescue to make this process easier in the future. When you have FCP running really smooth, open FCP Rescue and create a backup of your preference files. If it starts acting wanky, just run FCP Rescue and Restore your backup preferences. Works really slick, and it's free.
    EDIT: Or use the really simple explaination that X posted as I was typing.

  • Can I set up TC without connecting it to the internet?

    I access the internet on a wireless network and do not have a direct line for my internet connection. Is it possible to set up Time Capsule for Time Machine backups without connecting it to the network? Or do I have to use TC in bridge mode?

    In option 2 that you described, it sounds like I will actually be connecting to the Time Capsule through the primary wireless router on the existing network that I get my internet access from - if this is the case, won't the back-ups be painfully slow?
    Yes, for best backup performance you would want to be connected directly to the TC by wire.
    And can I completely prevent access to my Time Capsule by turning off the Sharing and Guest network options in this set-up?
    In this configuration, the TC would not be performing as a router. The Guest network option would not be available.

    Hello,
    I am currently an owner of an Ipod Touch 4th generation. I see you are having problems with your Ipod Touch, so I will try to find a solution to your problem.
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10sec. or until Apple logo appears (Nothing will be lost, this is just a "Hard Reset")
    Hope that helps!
    If none of the above solutions work, can you please respond back ASAP as I will try to find another solution to your problem (This might even help others with the same problem!)
    Cheers!

    Hi, my ipad mini has suddenly stopped working and I cannot turn it off or connect it to the computer, can anyone help me on this??

    Try this  - 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.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
