I recently updated to ios9 and it now wants a passcode. I've tried to restore via DFU mode, however iTunes no longer lets you JUST "restore" – you now have to "Restore & Update" which puts me right back to needing a passcode. I either never set one up, or it was 10 years ago when I first go the iPad. My apple ID and other "usual" passcodes I might have used don't work. I tried a second time doing restore and now just get an error message. Ideas??

Looks like I got it...I noticed my iTunes would say there was no updated version available, but the latest version to download (new) from the website was a higher version number. So I re-installed iTunes on my computer and it seemed to work! Yay!
