Hi,

I have a new Ipad Pro 9.7 and it will not lock / unlock when I close / open the case cover.

YES, I have Lock/Unlock turn on under settings->general
YES, I have a smart cover with magnets
YES, the case is installed correctly
YES, I did the hokey pokey and spun myself around

It does not work!

However, some info that I think is pertinent. I "restored" this new ipad from an itunes backup of my ipad air 1. This was to keep my app data, progress in games, etc. The new ipad pro had the "lock/unlock" option before I placed it into a smart case. I've read on the "information highway" that option should only appear after being placed in a smart case. So I assume that setting was included from my old ipad's backup.

Any ideas besides resetting the whole thing and losing all my data?
