OK so I forgot the ipad password and it is now disabled. I can't restore b/c I had never synced with itunes. It will not give me the option of putting in a password again. How do I unlock this ipad?

You will still need to connect it to a computer's iTunes in order to reset the iPad, and you may need to put it into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808


If it hasn't been synced to a computer then (from here) :

If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.


Have you been backing up to the cloud ?


You should be able to re-download apps and ibooks, and, depending upon what country that you are in, potentially music, films and tv shows : re-downloading.
