<h2>Common iPad data recovery scenarios</h2>
<div class="mb-fault-grid">
<div class="mb-fault-card priority"><h3>iPad completely dead — data still needed</h3><p>If the logic board can be repaired, all data is preserved. We attempt board repair first before declaring data unrecoverable. The encryption model on all modern iPads means data cannot be extracted without the original board being functional.</p></div>
<div class="mb-fault-card priority"><h3>Liquid damaged iPad — photos and files needed</h3><p>Liquid damage recovery prioritises board functionality first. Once the board is repaired and the iPad powers on, all data is accessible. Success rate is significantly higher when the device is brought in quickly after the incident.</p></div>
<div class="mb-fault-card"><h3>Screen shattered — iPad still powers on</h3><p>If the iPad powers on but the screen is too damaged to use, we can replace the screen to gain full access to your data. This is the simplest and fastest data recovery scenario.</p></div>
<div class="mb-fault-card"><h3>Boot loop or stuck on Apple logo</h3><p>Repeated Apple logo or boot loops are often software-recoverable without data loss. We attempt a software restore in the least destructive mode first.</p></div>
<div class="mb-fault-card"><h3>iPad passcode forgotten</h3><p>A forgotten passcode requires erasing the device — this results in data loss unless an iCloud or iTunes backup exists. We confirm backup availability before proceeding.</p></div>
<div class="mb-fault-card"><h3>Swollen battery — afraid to turn on</h3><p>Remove the battery safely first, then access data via external power supply. Do not attempt to turn on a swollen battery iPad — bring it in immediately.</p></div>
