iPad disabled
First drama with my son's iPad already.....well at least it took until March!
Background: Ipad turned on in Jan, set up Itunes account on it using Wifi thru home PC.
He downloaded all the apps he needed for school directly on it thru wifi. (not via cable to PC)
Has gone 2 months at school fine.....
We have never done a sync to pc directly thru the USB cable....(that might be the problem)
So tonight when he gets home his Ipad is disabled and is suggesting to connect to Itunes
He said it worked fine all day at school and the last lesson was music when they all left their
bags outside the music room unattended.
He walked home from school.
When at home Ipad says : Ipad is disabled . connect to Itunes.
He thinks it bumped around in his school bag and the home key was bumped and maybe put in the
wrong password 6-10 times and locked him out.
We say...no way, it locks you out for a minute first time then 5 mins next time etc....sounds suss.
We say some b...tard kid did it and locked you out.
Now.......
all help forums I read say that because we haven't ever synced and done a backup thru a PC we
have only one option:
To reset to default....and lose all his work etc?
Is this correct.....we might wait until tomorrow and let the school IT guy possibly recover/ reset it...
