Hello is this application erases and unblocks my ipad for free?

I hardly ever comment on videos but I have to on this one. I changed my iPad password to prevent my kids getting into it, but I did it while groggy and then my iPad died and I didn’t restart it until 1 week later. By then I was reminded I changed my password but could not remember it. I tried my old and more until it locked me out permanently. I came to terms with the fact that I’d lose all my data (I don’t back up to iCloud for my journal). I found this video and followed what was said. In the end I logged onto my iPad with my old password (the same as my phone) and to my pleasant surprise, I did not lose a single piece of data!! So THANK YOU!!!!!! 🙏🏻 you’re a hero!!

One of the most easiest Tutorials I have ever seen for tech, this also saves you money. Thank you so much 😭😭😭

My son locked himself out of his iPad and I tried searching how to fix it but nothing seemed to work. I stumbled upon your video and thought I'd give it a try. Within 20 minutes it was up and running again! Thank you so much!

Some of the reviews for this don't make sense. This kzread.infoUgkxUGaHtKW8MwCql2fPyIm9-ftTqSMzKFFA works as well as any power strip I've used. Plug in what you need, be sensible about it & keep it movin' The construction is plastic but it's a sturdy piece. It has a single toggle switch & the swivel jacks are useful as well. Plugged in next to Tripp Lite Isobar takes some of these reviews with a pinch of sumthin' - does what it says & functions properly.Had for about a month.

THANK YOU RICK!!! I couldn't get my iPad into recovery mode somehow (iPad Air 4 WIFI), but I tried plugging it in with a cable just as the power off sign disappeared while trying "volume up release, volume down release, press hold lock button". Magically IT WORKED. Then I CHANGED cables immediately when it went into recovery mode because somehow, that first cable couldn't detect the iPad on my macbook. THEN IT WORKED. (Figured my 2nd cable was possibly some sort of a data cable) I did the flash. But Scared the life out of me when it only went to 20% and then my iPad restarted, and the 3uTools couldn't detect my iPad again. BUT I re-watched your video & then I tried the exact same process but with ANOTHER USB PORT as you said to try, AND IT WORKED. MADE EVERYTHING INTO 100% & Now my iPad is working well!!!! I can't thank you enough, I thought I lost my iPad forever because the guys at Apple could only help me so much & it's been a year or so, I almost lost hope. God bless from Singapore, Rick!

Thanks Rick for the explanation. I have a 9th Gen Ipad new. Kido entered in passcode incorrectly somewhere down the line while we were initially setting it up. After some looking into what the hec to do I downloaded 3Utools and all 3 attempts failed at 19%. Personally while I am not a fan of apple products period, my husband says security is good - well you dont say! Error received at each failed attempt: ERROR: Device failed to enter restore mode. Please make sure that idevice is connected with the usb cable and Apple Device Driver is installed correctly (btw - brand new device!). So I changed cables, USB ports and it failed 2 attempts via 3Utools. Changed back to OEM cable and original USB port and restored via itunes successfully stupidly enough. Going through the comments here - i think it's hit and miss either way. I restored on a Windows 10 Laptop. What I did not expect at the end of restoring via itunes was for 3Utools to open and verify/check off restore as successful. It's a convoluted process as a whole IMHO.

Thanks for your comment! @fivelittlescholersca118! I was so frustrated with my iPad locked, tried all of the methods and apps available online, not worked. However, your comment inspired me to keep trying on the MacOs Catalina Mac and Finder function from Apple itself. And Voila! I could successfully restore my iPad now after 2 hours of frustration! And your comment right here was my only hope at the moment! Thank you thank you so much and wish you all the best for you and your family! Greetings from Macao, China!

Instruction is very clear, concise and straightforward. I tried this but had encountered problem. It stopped at 18% regardless of using different laptop, pc, cord and ports. I believe this really worked but not for everyone. If this process doesn't work, you can try restoring your ipad using itunes. It worked for me. Just open the itunes, connect ipad using cord. Power off your device then long press the home button for recovery mode. There will be a pop up window, just click restore and wait for it to be downloaded for 15 mins. It will automatically restore your ipad.

Hello is this application erases and unblocks my ipad for free?

I have verified with apple support chat that once you see the "Ipad Unavailable" screen with no timer the apple store cannot recover the data only reset/restore backups , this blows my mind and I am still skeptical that this can be true! To add a "feature" that makes your files unrecoverable after 4-5 wrong passcode inputs seems crazy to me. BTW thanks for the vid/comment it helped me find the answers i was looking for. Looks like my family members data is gone with the wind. (no backups).

No, only the device you wipe

This whole security feature needs to be chucked in the garbage in iOS 17. I don't know if it is new to iOS, but I know it is stupid. The whole point of me wanting to get back in my iPad is to recover what I do not want to erase with a factory reset. I don't understand how my ipad can still be connected to bluetooth and I can see my lock screen pic but I can't access my ipad. Why can't I just login the Apple ID page via my macbook and unlock the damn thing from there? SMH.

Dont trust youtube comments that say they can fix it!! It is a scam!! They will demand payment first, then put you through this fake process like they are working on it, then they will ask you for more money to complete the process. They promise it is the final step... $200 dollars later and they will ask for one last payment.... your ipad/iPhone or whatever they are trying to fix will not get fixed, they just scam you for your money. They try and get qs much money as they can out of you... they will try and make it look legit with "hacking software or screenshots" but it is all fake. If a apple product is locked and the owner cant recover the password or reset, then the apple product is dead. There is no way around it. This is the bad thing about Apple products. You dont know how many laptops and ipads get sold to a 3rd party to restore and resell but can't because they are locked. All they do is strip it for usable parts and junk the main board because of the proprietary lock. There is no way around it.
