Error while trying to restore iPad to factory setting. First upgraded Mac OS which took its own sweet time (hours) and at least the new OS autodetects the iPad connected via the cable. Hangs in the stage after extracting the software and "preparing" the iPad for restoring to factory setting with above error. Very frustrating, have re-tried dozen times with all possible tips to restart devices, change cables/ports. This error code is not even listed in the forums.
