Ok... The 3rd attempt to restore via iCloud was successful after the battery level got above 35%. It was at 23% previously.

Good info...thanks for that. Noted that the iPad should always have a healthy charge before attempting to upgrade, restore, etc. :thumbs:

Glad things are working again. Enjoy!
