I'm unable to Factory Reset my iPad Pro Gen 8
I have some GEN eights and trying to do factory reset, but it says it cannot connect to Apple ID. I’ve tried several methods and cannot factory reset.

Use of a PC or Mac computer is unavoidable. If you don’t have access to a suitable computer of your own, that of a helpful friend or family member will suffice.
