[iMore Question]

I upgraded my phone to ios7. This also seems to have changed the passcode to my iPad? I gave my iphone a 4 digit passcode. It does not open the iPad with the same passcode 4 digit number? My iPad is now disabled? What do I do next?

Passcode on one device has nothing to do with passcode on any other device. However if you had the beta running on any of your devices it has just expired, leaving devices disabled until they are updated/restored.

First of all, make sure that you’re running the latest version if iTunes. Then, just put your device in DFU mode and connect it to your computer/iTunes. It will download the latest iOS and install it for you. Good luck.

I had the very same thing happen. I sought help from various forums and people basically said I was stupid because the standard revcovery and restore did not work.
I went to the Apple shop, I rang Apple itself and after 1.5 hrs on the phone said I should take it to the Apple shop....where I was told I would need to ring Apple to get a new passcode etc ect ect.

BUT I cracked it finally by following to the letter the detailed instructions as found in
