in the description alright let's get right to the video now alright this is gonna work with all the new iPads and I'm going to show you how to completely reset it back to its factory condition I'm gonna show you two methods of doing it first I will show you through the settings and then I'll show you how to do it with the buttons so in case you have a password and you can't get into your iPad you'll still be able to do a complete factory reset erase everything on your iPad back to its factory condition so you can set it up and start using it normally again alright so first off let's go through the settings so we'll go into settings here in settings we will go to general over here on the left hand column and then on general settings it's gonna be towards the bottom it's gonna say reset right here and then we're gonna have this option right here that says erase all content and settings so that's the option we're gonna choose if you have a password and you can get into it you will enter your password and here it's gonna give you a confirmation message to erase the iPad once you select that the reset process will begin and everything on your iPad will be erased back to factory condition so make sure that you do backup your iPad if there's anything on here that you want to keep alright let's go ahead and show you now how we're going to do the hard reset method so for example let's say you have a password on your iPad and you don't know it you can't get into it alright so first thing we're gonna need is a either PC or Mac with iTunes installed and these are the steps that we're gonna take to reset it so let's say you don't know your password your iPad may even be disabled like this no problem this will still completely reset it even if it's disabled so what we're going to we're going to connect it first so let's connect it to the computer or my hey make sure you have the latest version of iTunes open so download the latest version of iTunes make sure you update it to the latest one and then once you have it connected what we're gonna do is we're gonna press volume up volume down and we're gonna press and hold the power button until the screen completely blacks out once the screen blacks out we're gonna continue holding the power button but we're gonna press and hold volume down for 10 seconds then we're gonna quickly let go and press them both again until it goes into its restore mode alright so let's go ahead and do it now volume up volume down power button continue to hold the volume button until it blacks out once it does quickly press the volume down and hold it as well there you go ten seconds eight seven six five four three two one let go press them both again and continue to hold them both power button and volume down continue to hold them and once you see this connect to itunes screen you can let go of all the buttons it is now in I I pad restore mode so now we're ready to go we can go ahead and just place the iPad down okay so we're gonna get this message right here which says there's a problem with your iPad that requires it to be either updated or restored so let's just go ahead and select update your iPad can't be updated you will need to restore it perfect so here just see if you get this message just go ahead and hit update and it's gonna give you these confirmation messages here that you need to download the new update today so here just go ahead and select agree and it will take a few minutes to download the new software so this is gonna take some time here it says four minutes depending on your internet connection it may take longer if it takes longer than 10 minutes most likely your iPad will get out of restore mode so you will have to follow that process again to get it into the restore mode but for this step we have to wait till we finish downloading the software update and then once the software update is complete the reset process will automatically begin if not if your iPad gets out of restore mode like I said go ahead and put it again in a restore mode and since your software update will be downloaded it will continue with the reset process all right so since my software update download pretty quickly in about three to four minutes the reset process continued on its own so now it's at the next step which is extracting software so now we just gotta wait until all the bars load it's gonna do this a few times it's gonna do a couple different steps and once they load completely the reset process will be done so let's wait it should take a few minutes probably about five minutes for it to completely extract and reload the new software into the iPad alright so once you see this white screen come up that means that the reset process was done so it also should say this on your iTunes welcome to your new iPad alright so once you see that we can go ahead and disconnect it you don't need that no more and then now all we got to do is simply swipe up and we're gonna go ahead and get the iPad set up just set your language country connect to Wi-Fi and your iPad has been completely factory reset back to its factory condition so that is how you hard reset also known as a factory reset your Apple iPad pro so go ahead and like this video if it helped you out it really helps me out and that's it for this video I'll see you in the next one and as always peace
