Hey Beofthesea,


Sounds like you're having an issue logging in with your Apple ID on your iPad mini after a recent restore.


To clarify, did you restore a backup or did you set it up as new? Are you done with the initial set up and able to use the device currently or are you stuck in the Setup Assistant? If so, you can skip the Apple ID sign in during setup and set it up later in the Settings app.
