iPad Disabled Connect to iTunes

here is what worked for me -

gen 1 ipad -

locked due to too many failed attempts -

this is what I did - -

pressed home & power at the same time > waited for ipad to shut down > kept pressing home button and reconnected to Macbook > restore screen appeared.

Thank you very much, you saved my day!!!

Very nice exploit Texas. Even though I have no need for this tip at the moment I"ll definitely keep this one in memory.

Whooops. After re-reading it's not an exploit. Still requires you to sync to the last computer you synced with in the past. That's actually by design, not an exploit. Thought at first we were talking about a different computer here, haha.

Following the advice (texas mac man), what if the ipad hasn't been synced with itunes ever?

Thanks, Felito, your solution was the only one that worked for my iPad Air. Cheers!

Glad it worked for you MSMasel :9)

My friend puts the passcode entered too many times, then displaying a message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. but i do remember my passcode. How can i get it back as a normal screen to put the right passcode?

i got "iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes" on my ipad but when i connected it to the mac, it says

i cant respond on the ipad! what should i do?

PS: im still able to receive facetime from my friends..

Thanks for the help the screen only says to conect to iTunes but there is no other instructions! Solved my problem and I have a PC too!

Hi !! I'm having a problem not much important

I'm having an iphone 4s and i have some apps(games) in it my brother plays it all the day and finishes charge in it so can you help me out ( if there is some app available in the app store in which i can have password for apps on my i.o.s

Or if there is a apps passcode locker in the i.o.s setting) please help me out i will be very thankful to you!!!!!!

It's kind of embarassing

My iPad is not shown in the device section instead it say 'to allow acces please respond on your iPad'

I did the same way. I pressed restore iPad and while it was restoring, it sent me a message asking me whether to allow the computer access data in the iPad then i pressed ok but then they sent another message saying 'to allow access please respond on your ipad' how can i respond while it is locked?

I am on a two-week backpacking trip across Scotland. I am writing a blog, which I can only post to when I reach towns with Wifi. Today when I took my iPad mini (three weeks old) out of my pack and turned it on it said "iPad disabled [,] connect to iTunes." I do not have a desktop or laptop. I have only an iPhone 5s. I don't remember failing to sign into the iPad, but I believe it was on (mistakenly) when I put it away, so the motion in the pack, sitting on the pack, etc., may have simulated multiple signon attempts. I have signed into iTunes on my phone and all it offers is stuff to buy. I am in desperate need to use my iPad mini. Is there any way I can undisable it? All the suggestions I've found on this forum require that it be connected to a "computer", which I don't have (at least not a conventional one) with me. I really need help. And thanks.
