Upgraded the operating system on my iPad from iOS 4.x.x to the latest iOS 7.4.x.

Before upgrading did all the right things like backing up all the apps etc onto iTunes on my home PC.  However when I came to restart the iPad after th software update it will not let me restore anything and comes up with an error message becuase it says "Find my iPhone" is swtiched on, and to switch it off before doing this.  Trouble is I can't becuase I can't get past the Connect to your iTunes screen in the start up.  Anyone got any ideas how to get around this?
Thanks

Try force iPad into Recovery Mode. Follow step 1 to 6 very closely.

    Do you see a half moon icon in the upper right corner of the screen? If so, you have Do Not Disturb enabled. Settings>Do Not Disturb. Turn it off.
    Or do you have system sounds muted?
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the control center. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to control center. Tap on the bell icon and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock can be accessed in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

  • Hello i have a problem with my MacBook Air they wiped out the operating system then installed windows 7 how do i re install the apple firmware

    Hello i have a problem with my MacBook Air they wiped out the operating system then installed windows 7 how do i re install the apple firmware please help

    That is incorrect. You can install Windows on a Mac, any Mac, without having OS X installed on it.
    To the OP you will need the original system reinstall USB thumb drive that came with your Mac Air if it is older than a Mid 2011 model or if it is newer than a Mid 2011 model you use the Online Internet recovery system.
    If you don't have that original reinstall USB thumb drive you can order one from Apple for a small charge. Call Apple and ask to speak to someone Specifically to order a Replacement USB system reinstall thumb drive for your model year. You will need the serial number of that Air. It is etched into the bottom of the case.

    OS X is the same no matter where it is sold, and Lion can be switched to Russian in a few seconds by changing settings in the system preferences.

    have a question to ask ... I bought, at the time, the update of Adobe Audition CS6, being already in possession of the CS5.5 version. Since I had to redo the operating system (windows 7 professional 64-bit), reistallando program CS6, with the corresponding serial number in my possession, I noticed a malfunction that is:
    importing a musical motif and starting the program, clicking on play, I do not play any pattern or song despite being in operation.
    I reinstalled the program, but without any result. What do I do? Thanks.

    Many thanks.
    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

  • Was trying to upgrade op system on my 1st gen Ipad, but bcuz my PC was already on 7.1 it blew out the operating system in my ipad.  Is there any way to get my ipad back up and running?

    Upgraded my PC to IOS 7.1, went to upgrade my first gen ipad and the op system on PC was higher than ipad could handle so now my ipad got obliterated and all i see is the picture of the phone cord.  Any idea how to re-install a lower IOS to get my ipad back up and running?

    Do what the picture says. Plug the iPad to a computer running the latest iTunes and restore from your last backup.
    As you have probably found out, the original iPad cannot be updated beyond iOS 5.1.1.

  • How can I restore the operating system of my iPad?

    By mistake, one of my grandson's installed a new OS version in our iPad (I think he installed iOS 8.0.  The iPad is about 2 years old; my wife uses it, and she would like it to be returned to the original operating system that was installed because that's what she's familiar with.  How do I do this?

    Apple dosnt allow you to downgrade the ios (os) version, but with some programs you can downgrade, but they can sometimes be risky and they are not apple sertified, either google and find a program, or maybe take it inot a apple store or call up apple.

  • I am trying to update the operating system on my ipad

    I am trying to update my operating software so I can download the cloud.  It keeps saying that if I download new software it will delete all my files, apps, books , photos and music on my ipad?  What do I do?

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

  • My Macbook will not boot the operating system.  It just goes to a blue screen after the apple logo and the spinning wheel goes off.  I took the battery out and held the on/off button for five seconds and reset the PRAM.  I have the old mac os disk.

    You won't lose any data unless you erase your hard drive.
    Put your install DVD into the optical drive and reboot. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c"key on your keyboard (or the Option key until the Install Disk shows up). That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
    When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Disk Utility and click it.When it comes up is your Hard Drive in the list on the left?
    If it is then click on the Mac OS partition of your hard drive in the left hand list. Then select the First Aid Tab and run Repair Disk. The Repair Disk button won't be available until you've selected the Mac OS partition on your hard drive. If that repairs any problems run it again until the green OK appears and then run Repair Permissions.

  • I am trying to upgrade the operating system of my iPad to OS 6 and in the middle of the process it froze. How can I unfreeze it?

  • How do I disactivate the operating system on my macbook that was stolen from me?

    So in early September someone who I know broke into my apartment and stole my computer, I called the police and filed a report. I have some very snesitive documents on the computer that I would prefer no one to get their hands on. I was able to find the operating system disk I had purchsed to update the operating system a few years ago so I have all of the information associated with the OS. I do not know the IP address of the computer or exactly where it is (obviously or I would have it back). I want to basically turn the OS off so my files on the computer cannot be opened or used. Is there any way to disactivate the OS remotely like you can with Windows (if you use the product key on another PC it deactivates the previous version). I don't know if it matters but it was a late 2006 macbook (black) model 13" screen.
