Stuck setting up new iPad for child.

Hello.

I understand. As I said, I am clueless as to why this would be happening. You posted this at 1:31 AM my time, so I'm assuming the servers have been overloaded for two days now, due to time zones.

Feel free to disregard my advice.

Merry Christmas

Been having this issue since Christmas. Bought my daughter a new ipad mini, trying to set it up for her but when I use the quick connect feature on my phone we can't get past the "Signing in For..." screen. Just stalls out. Done several hard resets on booth my phone and ipad...nothing. If I since in on the ipad works fine, just can't seem to set it up for my daughter.

I'm having the same issues except it's got stuck on the "What content can <child's name> access?" screen. I press "Update Restrictions" and nothing happens - it won't progress. Very frustrating - imagine buying a brand new iPad 10th Gen for Apple prices and you've turned it on for the first time to set up for your 9 year old kid and you can't even get through the initial setup flows... Terrible UX.

Hello,

Going on week #2 on trying to setup an iPad for my child. After waiting the 14 day grace period to reset my password we are waiting at the age verification screen.

It's been rough 30 minutes. As someone who has worked we the Mac for 20+ years at work I can't believe the utter hassle of trying to set up an iPad.

I just bought the new iPad Air and I got up to the "continue setup on your other iPad" but the other iPad just loading something up with the loading circle spinning

If the transfer/setup process has stalled, you may need to restart both iPads:

Force restart iPad (models with Face ID or with Touch ID in the top button)

If your iPad doesn’t have the Home button, do the following:

1. Press and quickly release the volume button nearest to the top button.
2. Press and quickly release the volume button farthest from the top button.
3. Press and hold the top button.
4. When the Apple logo appears, release the top button.

Force restart iPad (models with the Home button)

Press and hold the top button and the Home button at the same time. When the Apple logo appears, release both buttons.

Idk

Is there stuff that doesn’t want to be deleted on the device

if not this might help

idk

It’s just the ditto thing happened to my sons iPad aswell which I just bought as a Christmas gift 🎁

Happy Holiday! Were you able to resolve your issue? I’m facing the same issue.

Me as well, this is strange.

Yep same for me! The up down volume power didn’t work.

im stuck on the “what content can @$$&/$(( can access. Smh 🤦🏻‍♀️

Same, I am stuck on the restrictions screen.

Having the same issue, has anyone found a solution? I tried setting up using device, but not recognizing devices.

What notification needed to be cleared?

Has anyone figured out how to resolve this issue? I am still stuck
