With mynew mini ipad (retina) I actually got it up and running but came unstuck when I opened up a cloud mail account. I later tried to change it to a hotmail address and got into a mess, so reset the whole &*^E$*( thing.
Now I have got i , entered my country, and now it can't find the wifi- it appears to be pad- locked - and that's as far as I've gone.
Can anyone help please?
