as i start to jailbreak my ipad 2 device (5.01) it says that "The attached device has a backup password set. You need to disable the backup password in Itunes before you continue. Start iTunes,remove the backup password and start this program again."
When I go onto itunes and press on my ipad and try to uncheck the encrypted backup, it does not let me...it is just grey. Is there a solution to this?

Just clear the password you use to activate the device in Settings and do the JB then you can re-activate the password.

by password u mean i can clear the encrypted backup password?? (by settings u mean in ipad or in itunes?)
 
In Settings - General under where you set the time for the Automatic Blocking you find the voice to clear the password. All this in the iPad settings.

Many Thanks

As my first jailbreak, everything did well and now I have an Ipad 2 Wifi+3G with jailbreaked.

Many thanks for our great developer and supporters. Donate will also come :). Time to go to sleep.

I had the same problems. I tried it about 10 times on 2 different PCs. Same thing, just sat on the first part until it stopped working. What I did was backup to my PC, then restore it to factory. Rebooted my PC. Ran Absinthe as Admin and it worked perfectly. Once it was done I restored my backup to get my settings back, then I sync'd my apps. Good luck.

Same problem here. I had to reboot the iPad like it was when I got it out of the box. Otherwise nothing else works and you'll get angry like I did.
 
MOST COMMONLY USED TWEAKS NOT WORKING WITH this JAILBREAK :-

1. gRAVIBOARD
2. Overboard
3. Locktopus
4. Lockdown Pro
5. barrel [Some transitions only...make the homescreen (winterboard) act weirdly]
6. Remove background [Removes all active apps in background]..installing but not working..

Most of the time when u download these tweaks the springboard keeps asking you to go into SAFE MODE or RESTART..as a result u have to remove them from cydia in the end!
 
i dont know..when i press the REMOVE BACKGROUND icon in the sbsettings my iPAD just resprings and no apps are closed..and it tell me to restart or keep using in safe mode!
 
Just a heads-up for everyone. After JB and installing several Cydia apps, I had a strange and rather severe issue with my iPad. For all info, see this thread :

http://www.ipadforums.net/ipad-hacking/44596-official-ipad2-jailbreak-thread-94.html#post424114

After my iPad was working fine again, I started installing each Cydia app separately and re-booting right after to see if the issue again poped up. My conclusion is :

Either ManualCorrectPro and/or DietBar caused the problem. My guess is DietBar, because ManualCorrect (the regular version) works without any problems.
