how's it going everybody you're watching
the ball tech so let's say you forgot
your ipad passcode
and by ipad passcode i mean this the
lock screen passcode so you just forgot
the code
and there's no way you can use your ipad
it can't get in
you can't go past this screen so
maybe your ipad is just like mine it's
fully working
but it just forgot the code so you can't
use it
or maybe even worse you have tried so
many times
that your ipad is like that disabled
ipad is disabled as you can see
and it doesn't matter if it's disabled
for one minute 15 minutes
hours it doesn't matter in this video
i'm gonna teach you how to remove
that forgotten passcode how to actually
reset it
and create a new one if you have
forgotten it so it's incredible
and on top of that this will work on any
and all ipad models
from the ipad 1 to the latest ipads
it doesn't matter and it also is updated
this process is 2021
updated so if your ipad is already
running ipad os 15
or as i said if it's running a really
old version
of ios no problem this will work for
everyone this video will save your life
but before i begin
i have to give you a few pieces of
information which are very very
important
as well one in this video i will focus
on ipads with home buttons
so any ipad with a home button
you can follow this tutorial and i
guarantee you you'll finish it
without a passcode you'll be able to
completely reset it
and create a new one but if you have an
ipad pro
without a home button that you use
gestures and all that
i have dedicated video for those devices
for the ipad pros without home buttons
and i'll have a card right here
so you can go ahead and check it out and
also uh
if you're having this problem of a
forgotten passcode on your iphone
i also have a dedicated video for that
so also
card right here and link in the
description so
i got you covered in any and all
scenarios and also
two extra pieces of information that are
super super important
one is that this video follows the
official apple support tutorial
so i got their tutorial their
step-by-step guide
and then created this video so it's
important for you to understand
that everything that i'm teaching you
here comes straight
from apple and two this video this guide
will only work if the ipad is yours if
you own the ipad
and you forgot your own ipad lock screen
passcode if you're trying to do it for
any other reason
it just won't work okay so again
it'll only work if you forgot your own
ipad lock stream passcode
and you're trying to reset it and create
a new one
otherwise it won't work trust me right
so
now let's finally begin let's go so as
you can see
you will need a computer for this
process but don't worry because you can
use a mac
like i'm using or you can use a windows
pc
so no matter what computer you have it
will
work this method is compatible with any
and all computers and also
you don't even need to own a computer
you can even borrow one
you can literally use any computer for
this okay
so if you have a windows pc you will
need to download
itunes and i'll leave a link in the
description for you to download itunes
as you know itunes is a free software
made by apple
so it's super safe so you can download
and install on your windows pc right now
if you don't have it already
and if you're using a mac you don't need
to download any software
you already have everything you need all
right now
we will need to go to safari and go to
this website which is called
ipsw dot me i'll also have a link in the
description to this website
and we're going to ipsw dot me to
download
the ipsw file so the firmware
the ios or ipad os itself
it's much better to go ahead and
download the ios or ipad os manually
right now
instead of letting itunes download it
trust me
this is the best method i've been using
this for years
this is the way to go right so right now
you can just click
on ipad on the first screen you scroll
down
click on ipad and then if there's an ad
you can easily close it
and then you're gonna look for your ipad
model
right here you can find any and all ipad
models
from ipad 1 all the way to the all the
way up to the latest ones
and if you're not 100 sure on your ipad
model
i got you covered as well you can easily
go to identify
my device right here at the top identify
my device
scroll down a bit and then you're going
to type in your model
number and of course you don't know your
model number by heart
but you can find it either on the box at
the back of the box
or on the ipad itself right here
it's very easy you will find it model
right here it should start with an a so
in my case it is
a 2197
so then identify my device
then wait for it to load and as you can
see it will take you straight
to the exact download you need to
to download all right the exact file you
need to download
as you can see this is an ipad 7 wi-fi
that's the exact model i have
and then all you need to do now is
download
the top file you have here under
assigned
ipsws you will see one two
it will depend but you will need to
download the green one and i recommend
you to download the latest one
and this is the latest signed ipsw
meaning that this will work when you're
trying to do a process
if you download any other version any of
the unsigned ones the red ones
it will not work okay so you will need
to download
the latest version of ios which is
available right now
it's ipad os 14.7.1 when you're watching
this video it may be ipedos
15. it doesn't matter download the green
one
it will work i guarantee so click on it
and then scroll down and go to download
this size may vary a little bit but it
will be always around that size
i have already downloaded it before so i
can cancel it
because i already have it right here and
now what i recommend you to do is go to
your download folder
and then drag the file the downloaded
file
to your desktop you can already close
ipsw.me
and then i recommend you to have in your
desktop
it'll be much easier in just a few
seconds in the next steps the next step
is to actually grab your ipad
and turn it off okay and it doesn't
matter if your ipad
is disabled or not it doesn't matter
what screen you're seeing here
it's always the same process and it
works the exact same way for everybody
okay
so all you got to do is power off and as
you know you need to press and hold
the power button so press and hold it
until you see the slide to shut down
and then you will do exactly that slide
to shut down
to power off and then while we wait
because sometimes it takes five to ten
seconds
to completely shut down your ipad i do
recommend that
if you're using a windows pc that you
open up itunes right now okay so
open up itunes on your pc right now if
you're using a mac
you don't need to do this step this is
just a pro tip okay
so now that the ipad is completely off
we can
finally plug it in to the computer so
you get your cable your authentic
original apple cable
connect it to your computer and then the
other end you will naturally connect
to your ipad but you will not simply
connect it
what you're going to do is actually
press and hold the home button
and then connect it so as you can see
i'm pressing and holding the home button
right here
just the home button and then i'm gonna
connect it
while i do that so as you can see
pressing and holding the home button
and the cable is connected and i'm just
waiting okay so wait and wait and wait
because
this will make your ipad go to recovery
mode
on most cases you will see a pop-up
screen on your mac
or on your windows pc inside itunes but
if you don't for some reason
you can still keep holding just to make
sure and you can open up
your software so it can be either a
finder if you're doing this on the
latest
version of mac os or you or itunes if
you're using
an older version of mac or windows pc
and as you can see there's a problem
that requires it to be restored
that's the screen you want so you can
let go
the button as you can see i'm letting go
and you can leave your ipad to the side
so my ipad is on the table
and it is still connected as you guys
can see
it's connected here it's connected here
and we don't need to touch the ipad
anymore so the ipad is successfully
in uh recovery mode in restore mode
and now that's exactly what we need
you can cancel this first pop-up now
all you got to do is restore your ipad
and i know a lot of you guys
will be asking me right now okay daniel
but i don't want to restore my ipad i
lose all my data
that's right you will lose all your data
but that's the only way to do it but
wait
relax because after you restore your
ipad
you can recover all your data from your
backups
so don't worry you probably do already
have an icloud backup
or your itunes backup and you can
recover
the backup after the restore process
okay
so you will need to restore it but we
can recover the data
afterwards all right now we don't want
to just
click restore ipad because we want to
actually attach
this file right here which is the ipad
os
the software the ipsw that we have just
downloaded all right so it's right here
so uh in order to attach and to actually
use this file to restore
our ipad all you need to do
is actually hold a key on your keyboard
while you click
on re restore ipad if you're doing this
on a mac
like i'm doing you're gonna hit the
option key
on the keyboard and i'm doing it right
now and click with your normal
left click and then a little window will
pop up
and you can select your file right here
in the desktop which is this file right
here so click
and open keep in mind that if you're
doing this on a windows pc
on a windows machine it's the exact same
thing but instead of holding the option
key
you'll be holding the shift key on your
keyboard
but the exact same thing hit the shift
key on your keyboard and then click
your normal left click and then you see
the exact same pop-up window popping up
on windows all right and then you will
see that your mac will erase and restore
uh your ipad to ipad os 14.7.1
which is the exact same one we have just
downloaded that's this file right here
so we can restore and then the restoring
process
has begun and as you can see it will
extract the software and start doing its
thing
keep in mind again that this is the
exact same process for
everyone uh it will only change
depending on
what machine you have so if you're doing
this
on a windows pc uh you may see it right
here
at the top because itunes will show you
right here at the top if you're doing
this on a mac it'll show you
down here but it's the exact same thing
guys as you can see my ipad has just
waken up
so it's showing out the apple logo and
then all of the process will be done
automatically and you don't need to do
absolutely anything
right so you can leave your ipad as it
is you can leave your computer as it is
and you will have to leave the cable
plugged in so don't touch
anything let the computer and the ipad
do their thing and let's just wait
and after everything is done i'll be
back and then as you can see after a few
minutes you will see a pop-up window
saying that your ipad has been restored
to factory settings
and it's restarting so please leave your
ipad connected
it will appear in the sidebar after it
restarts
so as you can see even though it has
been already restored
you still need to leave it connected
right here
until it's actually completely done okay
i'll be back when it's completely done
let's wait a few more minutes
and then as you can see your ipad will
come back to life
on the hello screen and then that's
where you can actually
unplug you don't need to be connected to
the computer anymore
and then you're good to go you can
finally go ahead
and create your new passcode because
your ipad
has been reset your factory settings and
then you can start setting it up
from the top choose your language choose
everything
and then of course put your new passcode
this time please put on a passcode that
you do remember
and that's pretty much it guys if you
continue right here with the setup
process
that's where you act you can actually
recover all your data
all your information from an icloud
backup
so then you can just set it up as you
would your ipad is bring you
back to normal and you have solved your
problem have
solved your issue and then you can use
your ipad once again
