My iPad 2 is locked and I am unable to enter my passcode to gain access to the device.
When trying to unlock the device from sleep mode by pressing Home button and then swiping the "> slide to unlock button" to bring up the number keys to enter the passcode a box with thin white lines appears around the area with the text ">slide to unlock button" and I am unable to swipe this area. When I touch other parts of the screen e.g. the time or battery power indicator a similar but smaller white box appears around that text too.
In addition, there is a voice telling me everything that happens on the screen i.e. when I press the Home button it tells the time, when I touch the screen where ">slide to unlock button" is written the voice says "unlock button", when the iPad enters sleep mode the voice says "screen locked". The voice narrative wasn't there before and I can't recall changing any functionality.
All of the above started after I did a full restore for my iPad as it was not syncing properly i.e. new content not copying across from iTunes and Mail had stopped receiving emails. Everything seemed fine (I had set up email accounts again, synced some music and apps etc.) after the restore until the first time afterwards when it went into sleep mode and I tried to get back into the iPad.
I have attempted a hard reset on two occasions by holding down the Sleep and Home buttons but these haven't resolved the issues. And because I can't get access to the iPad I'm unable to attempt another full restore as need to be able to turn off Find My Ipad in the iCloud settings on the iPad to do another full restore.
