I have an iPad 1 and I've been trying to get this fixed for about 2 days. It gives this message "iPad is disabled, try again in 23 million minutes" and whenever i plug it in to any computer it says "USB device not recognized". I also tried DFU mode and it still does it. Is there ANY way to restore the iPad ON the device. Or is there any way to get it fixed?
Connecting in Recovery mode may also work: If you can't update or restore your iOS device
Did you try to erase it remotely via iCloud? Log into your iCloud account on your computer, locate your device and click on "Erase"
When you connected the iPad to your computer did you also run iTunes on your computer. It is through iTunes that you can restore your iPad.
I already tried that. " I also tried DFU mode and it still does it." Also it is not my iPad it is a friend of mine's iPad and i'm trying to get it fixed.
Yes that's what i did and nothing came up. even iTunes won't recognize it. It's not iTunes its that any computer that i connect the iPad to doesn't recognize it no matter witch computer it is.
try steps here iPhone, iPad, or iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support
do steps under verify apple mobile device usb installed and see if that helps
i Have a question. If i remove iTunes and other apple programs. will any of my iTunes content be erased? (Apps, Music, Movies, TV Shows, ETC)
Also the USB recognizes my other devices.
No, check this:
Media you've bought from the iTunes Store or songs you've imported from CDs are saved in your My Music folder by default. They won't be deleted by removing iTunes. Although it's highly unlikely that you'll lose any of your iTunes Library when following the steps below, first make sure that your iTunes library is backed up. See iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive for more information.
