By the context of your question, I presume you are trying to restore your iPad as it is disabled or you have forgotten the pascode.


Unfortunately, this process does require a computer or Macbook running iTunes. If you don't have one

  • Ask a friend to borrow their computer
  • You can go to the Apple Store for help.

If you can't access a computer and your device still works, you can erase and restore your device without a computer. (You can only do this if you have the iPad to hand and if you know the passcode.
