Hi all,

Hoping you can help, I have a jailbroken device and to be honest don't see the benefit in it. However because it's jailbroken it's preventing me from streaming from the sky go app and now also from the lovefilm app.

Can I possible un jailbreak my iPad? And if so what's the best way to do this?

Thanks

Clare

Sure you can UNjailbreak the iPad. The easiest way is to connect it to iTunes and (1) make a backup, then (2) select "Restore" under the main Summary tab (in iTunes). iTunes will do all the work and when it's done, you'll be offered the choice to "Restore as new" or "Restore from backup." Select to restore from backup and iTunes will put your iPad back the way it was by using the backup you made. Only it won't be jail broken; it'll be stock on iOS 5.1.1.

Hope this helps. Holler back if you develop issues.

Mickey330's post pretty much covers it. In most cases, you should be able to restore a jail broken iPad from a backup to restore the OS to the stock one.
