Are you certain you have and are using the restrictions code password?

This is almost certainly different than the iPad's password.

If so, the "Disable Restrictions" button would appear as a bright blue button that is clickable. If not, this button would be a subdued blue and not clickable.

Yes I know the difference between the two pass codes and most definitely using the restriction code.

Does the iPad use a Profile (which might be the case if part of a business or education establishment)?
