    I think you might need to attach a Smart Cover before that option shows up.

    Try turning on the pass code lock. I see yours is off.

    Did you try tapping any of the settings. Like say auto lock. Could be it was moved to being a sub setting under that since it is a form of auto lock

    Does your third party cover have the magnet(s) in the non-hinge edge of the cover to trigger the sensor in the ipad mini?

    I have a new Air. I do not have a Smart Cover or any case ATM. But I do have the Lock/Unlock option. It's the 4th option in the section with the AutoLock function.

    You do not need a smart cover to see that option. Try restarting and you should have the option.

    Solution?

    I too am having the same issue on my iPad Mini 2. I have a third party smart case that worked fine with the first generation Mini. But I don't see that setting on my iPad Mini 2. Rebooting didn't solve the issue.

    Did anyone find a solution to this?
