There is no way to unlock a disabled iPad unless you use the correct passcode or you erase it. If you can't restore your iPad using the iTunes because you're prompted for a passcode, you'll need to put your iPad into Recovery Mode.

Step 1. Disconnect all cables from your iPad and turn it off.
Step 2. Press and hold the Home button and connect your device to iTunes. If your iPad does not turn on, please turn it on manually.
Step 3. Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen. iTunes will remind you that it has detected your iPad in recovery mode.
Step 4. Click OK. The Summary tab in iTunes appears. Click "Restore iPhone" and restore your iPhone.
Step 5. Once the restore process is complete, you'll be prompted to setup your iPad as if it were new. If you have an existing backup, you'll be able to load it.

Recovery Mode will erase all your data and passcode from your iPad, resetting it to factory defaults. Thus, you'll have brand new iPad without any personal data after you unlock a disabled iPad with Recovery Mode. Therefore, please consider carefully whether you need to use this method to fix the issue.

Ipad A1396 is disabled its sayes to connect to itunes but itune

The intent is to connect your iPad to a computer that is running iTunes.
You must have a current version of iTunes that knows about iPads and an operating system that can run the current iTunes. If your need to upgrade, be sure to install the OS first before your install the iTunes.

My ipad is locked how can i fix it

You have setup an iTunes account with Apple. When you connect the iPad to iTunes, (WiFi or via computer) they ask you the password for your iTunes account. If you forgot that one, Apple can send you an reset code to the mail address connected to the Apple account. (Not the iCloud mail)
If nothing works, goto the closest Apple store and take your invoice with you and an ID card, to prove you are the legal owner, perhaps they can help you.

What can you do to fix a disabled ipad2?

If your iPad has become disabled permanently, your only choice will be to reset the iPad in iTunes and restore from a backup. This may seem like punishment, but it is actually for your own protection. If someone stole your iPad and tried to unlock it, the iPad would become permanently disabled, thus keeping the person from getting access to your iPad's data.
How to Restore the iPad From iTunes
Remember to restore the iPad from the same computer you used to sync. If you are using iOS 5.0 and have iCloud set up to backup your iPad, you can also restore from the cloud. Even without restoring from a backup, you can go to the app store and install any app you have previously purchased for free.


Hope this helps a bit.

PLEASE HELP my iPad 4 wont re-boot. after the apple emblem it shows a small circle with itunes in it and what looks like a cord you use to charge a iPad if you touch it or try sliding it nothing happe

Seems that your iPad has been reset to factory. You will have to plug it into your computer and launch iTunes. From there you should be able to restore from your previous sync. It helps if you use the computer you originally set up the iPad with.

My kids locked the ipad it keeps asking to connect to itune, but I know the code

I don't have an iPad, but I did find this article. Sounds pretty much like what you're describing. Maybe this will help. It does say that making you connect to iTunes is for your protection in the event that someone steals your ipad.

Keep in mind, I have no idea how data is synced on an iPad, so I don't know if you may lose saved data on the device. Hopefully you've got that already synced/backed up:
