What do I need to know about resetting my ipad2, What do I need to know about resetting my ipad2

I just moved back to the states from Singapore. What do I need to do to reset everything, including country, apple Id, credit card info

to update your apple id info you can simply go to the app store and at the very bottom left you will see your apple id signed in to the app store, tap that then view id then put in your password. You can then update your country and region and also your billing information.

  • I have a restriction passcode that I have no idea what the passcode could be. I know that I need to reset the phone to factory settings but how do go about doing this without losing all of my contacts and other info, etc? (mainly contacts)

         At some point, I don't even remember doing this it must have been so long ago, I set a restrictions passcode on my phone. This has become a problem now because I have so many apps that I do not ever use that take up so much space I can no longer take pictures or put more music on the device. I have read that I need to restore to factory settings but that once I do that I cannot restore to a backup because restrictions passcodes are saved in backups. Is there any way for me to restore my phone to factory settings and then get all of my contacts and perhaps as much other data back as I can? I have tried every passcode I can think of for the restrictions passcode (24 times! to the point that ever time I try and fail I cannot try again for an hour. To say the least, this is quite frustrating as is limits what i can do with my phone on a daily basis, whether it be music or taking pictures and videos etc. Can someone please help me solve this problem without losing minimal data? I have already backed the phone up to my computer as well as iCloud. Even the woman at the apple store told me I had to restore it to factory but was too busy to get further into it and I didn't have a genius bar appointment. If all else fails I can make an appointment and go in there. I just thought I may as well ask on here first to see if there was a way I could do it myself. Thanks for reading and hope you can help me!

    You can't. Restoring new means everything is erased. If you have a backup made before creating a restriction code, then you can restore that backup, but none later.
    Placing your device into recovery (DFU-Device Firmware Upgrade) mode:
    Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
       1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
           other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
       2. 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 turn off.
                  * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                    Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                    release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
      3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
           device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
           let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
           charge, and then start with step 2 again.
      4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
           When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
      5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
      6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
    Additional Information:
    If you have a problem getting into recovery mode then try: RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode.
    Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

    Try a reset. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the red slider.

  • What you need to know about British Telecom Total ...

    I don't want to waste time on this forum. I've changed to Virgin - and thank God !
    Here's the text of the last letter I wrote to Customer Service Director, BT plc, Correspondence Centre, Durham, DH98 1BT.  I got the briefest of replies, which dealt with none of the points I raised.
    During April I was engaged in searching for a new flat. There were a number of possible candidates. I phoned British Telecom to ask about the service to the flat I favoured
    Your representative told me that I could expect up to 4 Mbs in this are. That was a lie
    The maximum possible speed is 2 Mbs. My IP Profile has typically been 1,2Mbs and currently you have restricted me to .9 Mbs and then to .78 Mbs
    Given that I was at the start of an 18 month contract with you, I would not have moved to this address had I been told – truthfully – by BT that this area is the worst in Cardiff for Internet access.
    In the same call your representative told me that there would be no problem providing a telephone service to 93 B because the line had very recently been in use and just needed to be switched on at the exchange That was a lie.
    Before moving in, I plugged a handset into the BT socket. There was no 'soft dial tone' which confirms that an inactive line is still connected to the exchange. I notified BT three times, but was assured – in a patronising manner – that then line had been tested and would be connected Friday 30th May. It wasn't of course.
    I notified BT by email. No reply on Saturday, nor the following days. On Tuesday an engineer called me. He told me my phone was working. I said it wasn't. He said he would check and ring me back within a half hour. He did not do so.
    It was not until the following Friday, that an engineer called and the problem was resolved. By that time I had spoken to the landlord and discovered that the BT line had not been in use for some time. Previous tenants had taken the Virgin Media telephone service. The flat had been decorated and the condition of the BT cabling inside the house could not be guaranteed.
    You have therefore deprived me of my telephone/internet service during the first week of May. You have not offered any compensation.
    I now raise a matter which may seem marginal, but which speaks volumes for the way British Telecom manage their business. The BT website offers a 'BT Community Forum'. I registered to use it because I wanted to document my experience for the benefit of other customers. The procedure ends with a message saying that an email with a clickable link will be sent, serving to verify the identity of the person registering. No such email was received. I tried again. No result. I notified BT. No reply.
    After perhaps six emails, a young woman phoned me. She wasted half an hour of my time establishing what I had already said in my emails. She said she would pass the matter on to technicians. No response – of course.
    It is evident that BT does not allow customers to register to use the BT community Forum, for fear that you will receive bad publicity. Given the shoddy manner in which you treat your customers, I imagine that bad publicity is inevitable. The Forum is a sham.
    I now come to the main issue – the provision of an Internet service. I wish once more to make it clear that it is not the slowness of this service that is the principal issue – it is the dishonesty of British Telecom personnel.
    I add that I am being advised by an independent expert who is an ex-BT manager with knowledge of the provision of digital services in Cardiff. You will understand that the press are always interested in 'whistle-blowers'
    If I had been honestly advised by BT that the area I was proposing to move to was poorly served by BT for digital services – and if I was experiencing the best speed that the line could offer me – about 1.5 Mbs real download speed – then I would consider myself bound by my contract with you. I would have moved to this area, knowing what performance I could expect.
    However, as I have outlined above, my decision to move here was largely based on a lie told to me by your representative on the phone – that I could expect up to 4Mbs
    In addition, the line speed has now been restricted to .78 Mbs. In my last letter I said that on the first occasion this 24 hour restriction was imposed I had complained and the peak time restriction was lifted. I had 1.2 Mbs off-peak, and .9 Mbs peak speeds.
    This continued to the end of May. On the 2nd June ther 24 hour restriction was reimposed.
    I have received an email from your customer service manager stating that this is simply because of 'long line length'. Very little technical knowledge is required to know that that statement is nonsense.
    My independent advisor tells me that in fact technicians constantly 'tune' speeds in bad areas. Obviously you try to get as many customers under contract as possible by lying to them about the speeds they will receive, then progressively reduce their line performance in order to accommodate other customers
    It is quite simply an outrage that BT should behave in this fashion, and nothing will please me more than having an opportunity to describe all of this in court.
    I estimate that the damages in time and stress you have caused me amount to one thousand pounds. I look forward to receiving your cheque for that amount.

    Hi sonsenfrancais,
    Welcome to the forum.
    I am sorry to hear you've now moved to another provider following some problems with the installation of your line and broadband speeds, if there's anything you'd like us to look into feel free to drop me an email at [email protected] with your BT account details.
    All the best,

  • HT1920 I have got a Activation Lock on my iPhone and I need to get it activated. I don't know what Apple ID I was using with my iPhone. It shows as U***@h******.uk which is too short to be my email address. I have reset all my Apple ID passwords and none

    I have got a Activation Lock on my iPhone and I need to get it activated. I don't know what Apple ID I was using with my iPhone. It shows as U***@h******.uk which is too short to be my email address. I have reset all my Apple ID passwords and none are activating my iPhone. I have also been into the apple store and they have tried to find out the Apple ID my iPhone was using but this was not successful. The serial number of my iPhone is: C32JN641DTWF

    You are going to need to change the email address you use with your old ID. Once you have got access to your old account you will then log into both accounts at the same time on your Mac and transfer your data to a single account. We can do this later, but need you to get access to your old account first.

  • Why would it state under the "more about this mac" that i already have10.8.3 and then in the app store say i need to "resume" do you know what i mean? is it possible i already did download mountain lion entirely once? I am confused and don't want it twice

    why would it state under the "more about this mac" that i already have10.8.3 and then in the app store say i need to "resume" do you know what i mean? is it possible i already did download mountain lion entirely once? I am confused and don't want it twice

    This is cause by the way the App Store checks to see if an application is installed on your system.
    Basically when an app is installed it is in the Applications folder and this is where the MAS looks for them. So it looks at your purchase history for the apps you bought and looks in the Applications folder to see if they are installed. If an app is in your purchase history but not in the Applications folder the MAS says you need to install it.
    For normal apps this works fine but the OS doesn;t install into the Applications folder. So the MAS sees you have Mountain Lion in your purchase history but it's not in the Applications folder and so it says you need to download it.
    Hopefully one of these days Apple wil fix this.

    If you're able to contact the person who set the lock, send them this link and tell them to follow its instructions.
    If not, you can't use the device but may be able to get it refunded. Apple won't remove the lock for anyone other than the original owner(assuming they're alive.)

    Please help me!! I needed to reset my iPod touch because my pass code was changed and I didn't know what it was, but now iTunes wont let me restore it what do I do?

    You'll need to connect it to the iTunes library you normally sync it with and restore it.  If iTunes asks you for this passcode before it will let you proceed, connect the iPod to iTunes in recovery mode instead using the instructions in this Apple support document.

  • What are some things i need to know before buying Aperture 3? because i know a little about digital photography

    Help please

    Your Mac seems to be compatible with Aperture (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1657), but is your camera? Here is a list of cameras, that are supported by Aperture, see: Apple - Aperture - Technical Specifications - RAW Support
    If your camera is not on the list, you can work in Aperture with jpegs, tiffs, psd images, but not with raw images.
    because i know a little about digital photography
    That is a bit ambigious - do you want to say that you have some experience with digital photography, or nearly none at all?  Have you tried iPhoto and do you like it? iPhoto comes on every newer mac included for free, so you could give it a try. Aperture and iPhoto are related, they are both supporting a lossless workflow - you can always undo all edits and your original images are preserved, and both are compatible. Each application can open the photl library of the other app.
    Only Aperture has advanced editing tools and more possibilites to organize and search your images.
    To elaborate on Kirby's question: To help you decide, it would help to know, if you have used any software for organizing a photo library previously, and and what you are looking for. If not, give iPhoto a trial run - it should be on your Mac. If you see, that you need more advanced features than the basic set in iPhoto, check, if Aperture will give you those and then buy Aperture. You can continue right where you left off in iPhoto.

  • What does a BI Developer need to know about SAP tables and why?

    Hi,
    i.
    As a BI Developer, to what extent do you need to know about SAP tables?
    e.g. if you work mainly in the functional areas LO and FI
    ii.
    For example, I know that in Finance, GL relates to the tables BSEG and BKPF.
    And if it is important to know about them, then which other tables need to be known and for what reasons?
    e.g. do I need to know all these tables: http://www.erpgenie.com/sap/abap/tables_fi.htm
    iii.
    I thought as a BI Developer, knowing that a particular datasource, e.g. 0FI_GL_4 contains line items is enough and you replicate it to BW and work with it. Why is there the need to know the tables from which this datasource gets is data?
    iv. What is the main difference between the FI datasources and the LO datasource?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    i.  As a BI Developer, to what extent do you need to know about SAP tables?
    e.g. if you work mainly in the functional areas LO and FI
    Not required, but today business demands so you required this Knowelgde.

    And if it is important to know about them, then which other tables need to be known and for what reasons?
    e.g. do I need to know all these tables: http://www.erpgenie.com/sap/abap/tables_fi.htm
    We can't say yes or No, so based on your requirement you need to sit with Functional COnsultanst and the understand the Business Requirements and develop the OBjetcs.

    If you want to know the data flow and reconsilization then you need to know it else not required
    iv. What is the main difference between the FI datasources and the LO datasource?
    Yes, one main difference is There is no setup table concept for FI DataSource*
    Note: If you want to become a good BW consulatnt you must know about Tables for normal BW consultant it is not required.
