The one today is from sellyourmac.com.
Does anyone know if this is a trustworthy site?
I want to sell my 1st gen iPad and would like to know how to return it to it's original state, removing any and all info of mine.
Back up your iPad first. If it is a 3G model, and you buy time monthly from AT&T, call them to suspend the subscription, and remove the sim card from the device so that it cannot be re-activated by the next owner and charged to you. Then you can set it to factory defaults by going to Settings, General. Press Reset and choose Erase all Content and Settings. The iPad will retain any updates you have gotten but this will remove all your personal information and apps except for those which come with it.
