iPad Model A1474 - is locked For 2 years or more ?

This typically happens when you enter the wrong passcode too many times. Is this what happened to you?

If you did, this link explains how to erase the device to get back in: If you forgot the passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support

iPads aren't locked to carriers; I think the only issue may be models with the "Apple SIM" that can be locked to one carrier once activated.

Those iPads have a slot for a physical card so it's a non-issue in the long run.

You really should not post personal information on public forums such as these. Doing that could be why you are receiving the scam calls. I requested the Hosts to edit it to protect you.

No worry. I am still recovering from all of the noise when they reroofed my house yesterday. At the beginning of the month we had a hail storm that destroyed the singles. I am not used to so much noise. It wore me out.

We have a school being renovated and they set off (tested???) the fire alarm system at 7:45 am on Wednesday.

I had to get to my car and only 1 entrance is usable. My brain just about rattled out of my skull since it was so loud in that space.

I am so looking forward to my quiet weekend at home.

I didn't even think about the iPad being disabled - thanks for this.

It's been a long week.

No problem. I got a full night's sleep last night for the first time in weeks! And the hurricane appears it won't be paying an unfortunate visit to Florida's West Coast!!

Glad to hear you should be safe.
