Description

The listing, 32GB iPad 2, STUCK IN RECOVERY MODE has ended.

I'm giving away my mom's black 32GB iPad 2 (model A1397), which is STUCK IN RECOVERY MODE.

I have tried to restore it from several computers via iTunes, but it always results in an error message (see pics). Not sure if it's a hardware issue, and not sure if it's repairable.

Please ONLY BID IF YOU THINK YOU CAN FIX IT! IT DOES NOT WORK IN ITS CURRENT STATE! Keep in mind that I have not been able to restore it after multiple attempts!

It's engraved w/ "From Laptop to iPad, epy"

The only thing included is the iPad. No cables!

Ships free to winner w/ tracking.

Here's one way you can fix it....go onto your computer and go to www.icloud.com so you can access the "find my iPhone" app, enter your appleID and password, find your ipad, then wipe the ipad clean. After that your ipad will be like new again, done deal.

This ipad doesn't show up on icloud when we log in with the ID associated with it. I think it has already been wiped clean, so it can't be traced. :( Thanks for the suggestion though!

Are you sending it in a box?
Would you lower days?

Yup, I'll package it safely w/ lots of padding in a regular shipping box (don't have the original ipad box). Sorry, can't lower the days. Good luck!

you hold down the power button and the home button at the same time one that shows up yr you turn it off hold down the power button and reconnect the cable instructions on how to fix this at apple.com it just happened to my grandsons iPad yesterday and I fixed it

Have you tried to restart it?
Hold down the home button and power button at the same time... And you'll see a black screen then it turn to a apple boot logo. Maybe it will turn back on from there?

As much as I would love to win this from you, I morally can't do it without first telling you about that so this way you could just fix it yourself. I'm surprised the genius bard isn't tell you the same thing

thanks - i've tried everything short of jailbreaking it with no luck. if it's easy to fix, then my loss is your gain! :)
