For the media files, it depends on the ipad generation. If it''s ipad 1, the program can recover photos and videos from the device. If it''s newer generation, the program only recover media files from backups. Please check the supported file types on this website. http://www.wondershare.com/data-recovery/iphone-data-recovery.html

Thank you for the quick reply - I probably misunderstood the website summary, as I thought that whether the iPad was disabled or not, it would be possible to retrieve photos and videos. I haven''t connected my iPad to a computer or iTunes ever.. Is it 100% impossible to get any information back?

Hi Diya, as the ipad is disabled, does that mean the ipad cannot be recognized by the itunes any more? If yes, I am afraid neither our product will be able to scan the ipad. Have you ever backed up the ipad with itunes or icloud? If yes, this product can help you scan the backup file and recover the files you need.

Can I use this to recover all my photos and videos from my disable iPad? I saw this page a few months ago, and that was included in the summary. Looking now, it says that you can only save notes, text messages and contacts?
