Tried what you suggested, but no picture of ITunes and plug on the iPad
A message appears in iTunes "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes."
If I select restore, the latest iOS software downloads, but a message then says "The iPad could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (4014)"
