Recently today, my iPad has gone haywire. At first it was working fine, but then it began to reboot constantly. I tried in vain to desperately install its software update, but ultimately fail because of the constant rebooting. I even tried to update my iPad through the finder and even tried to restore it, only for an error to pop up saying the process cannot be done. Currently, the iPad is stuck on the recovery screen.
What can I do to fix my iPad?

Your iPad must be restored:
If you see the Restore screen on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
These support pages outline the available methods to restore an iPad - either from a backup, or to Factory Settings:
Restore your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch from a backup – Apple Support
Restore your iPhone, iPad or iPod to factory settings – Apple Support
Restore all content to iPad from a backup - Apple Support
You’ll need access to either a PC (with iTunes installed) or a Mac (with iTunes or Finder - as appropriate for the installed version of MacOS).
Download and use iTunes for Windows – Apple Support
Update to the latest version of iTunes – Apple Support
Use of a PC or Mac computer is unavoidable. If you don’t have access to a suitable computer of your own, that of a helpful friend or family member will suffice. Alternatively, the technicians at the Genius Bar of your local Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider (AASP) will be delighted to assist.
