How to Restore iPad Without iTunes

If the important contacts in iPad get deleted, you will try to get them back. Restoring iPad with the iTunes backup is the easiest way to recover deleted contacts on iPad mini. If you update your iPhone backups regularly, then you can recover most of the important data from the backup. The restoring process is also easy to be done, and the following tutorial is for the new users of iOS devices:

1. Connect iPad mini to computer with USB cable, and iTunes will launch automatically. If not, you should manually start iTunes.
2. iTunes will recognize iPhone and display the iPad icon at the upper left corner. Click the iPad icon.
3. The control panel of iPhone appears after you click the iPad icon. Click Summary in the panel.
4. Click Restore Backup in the right part of the window. Then iTunes will allow you to choose the iPad backup, and finish the restore.

Update the iOS software on your iPhone iPad and iPod touch

if you have laptop/desktop computer you can sync the iPad with iTunes and download iOS 8.1.2 there:
Upgrading iPad to iOS 8: Through iTunes 1. Backup your iPad
Open iTunes. Select your iPad in iTunes and click Back Up Now.
2. Restart your iPad and your Computer
3. Download and Install the Update
Go to iTunes -> Select iPad -> Check for Update -> Click Download and Update

Whichever method you choose, the process will take quite some time to work depending on how much free storage you have on your iPad, your internet connection, and how Apple's servers are doing with upgrades. Occasionally, Apple will either not let you download the upgrade or it will fail. For iOS 8, you must have an iPad 3 or newer. This does not work with the original iPad - if something goes wrong, restart your device, and try again.
