My Ipad is diabled, Ive connected to Itunes but it is not listed. This is an older Ipad that I haven't used in a while. It has a 4 digit security code. My current Ipad has a 6 digit security code. How can I get this ipad unlocked

I have an older Ipad that I haven't used in a while. I want to use it for work purposes but I can't remember the 4 digit security code and the Ipad is disabled. I've tried to log onto the itunes store but it won't recognize the ipad because it is locked. Is there another way to unlock this Ipad.


iPad Pro, iPadOS 13

Hello,


Unfortunately you must now fully restore your iPad to factory settings.


Please refer to the following Apple Support documents.


If you forgot the passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support

If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
