My iPad 2 is locked from trying to enter incorrect password. I use this in my bakery and someone must have been playing with it. Now I've run out of times to try and it is locked. I tried to erase everything and, when I did I received error 1671. Help.

Sorry to hear about the problems you are having with your iPad. The good news is that there is a solution to resolve your issue.

If you have already gone through the process described by the aforementioned article, please schedule an appointment with your local Genius Bar so that you can receive additional assistance.
