In order to restore the device it must be connected to a computer. If you don'thave one, perhapsa friend could help. If not, make an appointment at the nearest Apple Store for assistance.

Apple Store - Find a Store - Apple

Follow the instructions in the link in blue letters above your name on this page.

Whilst erasing an iPad using iTunes requires connection of the iPad to either a PC or Mac computer, providing that Find My iPad is already enabled in Settings and the iPad has an active network connection, you can remotely wipe the iPad using the Find My service.


Find My can be accessed directly from any Apple iPad, iPhone or Mac - or using a web browser on any computer:
