iPad Restore

I went to use my iPad today and it said it needed to be restored all the sudden it starts doing it and now I’m getting a white blank screen I can’t get out of that says “data recovery cannot be complete please restore your iPad from backup”

iPad Pro 11-inch Wi-Fi, Cellular

Hi mikayla225,


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities, it's great to have you here. From your post, I see you're unable to use your iPad due to the error message stating that it needs to be restored from a backup.


Are you able to use the steps in the following article to set your iPad back up again?


If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


I hope you find this helpful.


Best regards.
