Without the previous owner's Apple ID and Password, you will not be able to activate the iPad.

Become familiar with how it works. Then try out some of the features. Examine it for damage or dents. Is it still under warranty?

Create a new Apple ID using a new valid e-mail address

In iPhone's Settings > Store > Apple ID > Sign Out and sign in the new.

Ever since installing iCloud and Lion my computer is slow or freezes. The color wheel comes on and My work stops. I have only a small window of time where my computers will function normally during the day. I know many others that have the same problem.

Ever since installing iCloud and Lion my computer is slow or freezes. The color wheel comes on and My work stops. I have only a small window of time where my computers will function normally during the day. I know many others that have the same problem. I'll get 20-30 minutes of work done and then a sync or something comes on, the color wheel of death shows up, and my productivity is shot. I have to shut the computer down the hard way! when it comes back up, it is still either frozen or slow. I've checked in at the genius bar and all they say is that there have been some problems that Apple is trying to fix. It effects Mail, Contacts, Safari, Calendar....yeah, pretty much everything. My iPhone and iPad are not effected as much so I end up doing what I can with them. I've seen the blogs out there and understand that many have the same problem. I have been waiting to read about a fix but I have found nothing! Any ideas?

Not enough free space on the startup disk can slow the system down.
Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure there's a minimum of 15% free disk space.
For startup issues... open System Preferences > Users & Groups - Login Items. Delete any apps listed there then restart your mac.
And disable the Lion "resume" feature.
Open System Preferences > General
Deselect: Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps
And Spotlight may be indexing... you can turn that off > Turning Off Spotlight | Mac Tricks And Tips

I buy a second hand ipad unopened and no receipt

I bought second hand ipad unopened and no receipt .I'm afraid it is a ipad bought the insurance。do we have any way to fix it

Try posting in your native language. It is difficult to understand what you are asking.
It sounds like you are saying you bought a stolen or new never used iPad and you are now worried that the owner will claim it. Or you bought a stolen/new never used iPad and it is broken and you have no insurance to pay for fixing it.

Buying a second hand iPad 2. What should I look out for?

Hi, I'm from the UK and I'm buying a second hand unlocked Ipad 2 (It wasnt bought unlocked), Is there anything in particular i should be wary of before buying. I'm buying this from a friend so i have the chance to physically look at it before buying? Its over a year old so, but can i still get some kind of apple care?
Also i've read that iPads arent locked to specific networks? But my friend tells me he had to unlock it to use his GiffGaff simcard..
Thanks in Advance

I can't comment on the cellular. HOwever make sure that iPad isn't still linked to the original owner's apple ID or you'll buy a brick.
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH13695
explains what the activation lock is and if the original owner's Apple ID is still on there or they can't give it to you, then don't buy it. Because it can't be unlocked.

I'm thinking about buying a second hand ipad online. Is it stolen?

Hi!
I'm new to ipads, so perhaps I can get this answered here!
I am about to buy a 16gb ipad online. It is used, but has everything and is practically new. I'm always afraid of buying something that would turn out to be stolen. This only happens when I buy something online that's not in its original packaging, especially since every time I upgrade my gadgets, I sell them to Gazelle.
I'm curious if there is a resource to put the serial number into a database, and see if it was stolen from a store or something. It's probably ok, however I would rather be on the safe side before I have the police breaking down my door because I sold a 200$ ipad to gazelle a year from now.
Thanks!
Note: Sorry for the double edit. I am told it was never used, and is refurbished. I know you can register an ipad and track it. I'm afraid someone steals it from a store, then sells it online or something.

I turned on home sharing, and it doesn't show up in my library. I tried switching it off and it still won't show up. I know other itunes are open and they don't show up in my itunes. What do I need to do? I have the newest version of itunes

I have the latest version of itunes. I turned on the home sharing, and it asked for my ID and everything and it said it loaded. Then I went to open another library up and I don't know if the library is available to me. How do I get to the other library from my computer? I'm using the same home sharing username and password, but i don't see it. The other library has the latest version as well.

If you click View, Show Sidebar you will see the other libraries under Shared in the left hand column. Click on the Library you want and you can expand it to select Music, Movies etc. Select whatever items you want and click import if you want to move them to your Library.
You will have to have all computers authorised with the relevant Apple ID's
Store > Authorise this computer...
This is separate from the Home Sharing username and password and is to allow playing of DRM Movies, TV shows etc from the other computer.
If both Computers use the same apple id this step is not required.

If I buy a second hand ipad with a wireless service, can I use it as a wifi only device?

For instance, let's say I find a great deal n a used ipad, but it's attached to AT&T, but I have no interest in getting an AT&T plan. Can it be used as a wifi only device?

Yes.

I have an airport express, which I want to use with my broadband providers router to create a second wireless access point but not with the same network name etc.

In effect, I want to have my providers router working upstairs and the aiport express downstairs connected via wi fi. The airport would have a different network name, then allowing me to connect the children to the access point. This would allow me to turn their network off at times of day etc.
any ideas ?

I want to have my providers router working upstairs and the aiport express downstairs connected via wi fi
Sorry, but the AirPort Express....or any other Apple router......cannot do this.
In order to do what you want, you will need to establish an Ethernet connection from one of the LAN <-> ports on your "main" router to the WAN "O" port on the AirPort Express.
Configure the AirPort Express to "create a wireless network" using a wireless network name, and password that you select. As far as controlling connections, you can use the settings in Timed Access to establish rules about when the kids and cannot connect.

I locked up my restrictions and don't remember my pass code. That was 2 years ago now I want to use FaceTime, iCloud etc and I've restricted myself.... HELP somebody. PLEASE

I have an IPad2. When I first got it my 9 year old nephew was using it a lot &hi noticed stuff was missing like photos and apps and new stuff had been added.
I wanted to lock up stuff so he could not download and get rid of things I wanted on there. I set my restrictions up so I thought I was safe. I inadvertently locked myself out by forgetting the lock code for my restrictions. It's been 2 years and I need to set up things I am locked out of. Can anyone help me ? Is there a way to reset my lock code on my restrictions?

So how can ı have my device forget the previous ID and use my own to update exsisting apps.

Restore the device to factory settings with iTunes.
Then launch the App Store app on the iPad and sign in with your Apple iD and password:

I bought a second hand ipad mini without a simm chip. Can I buy one at the Verizon store and get a pre-paid plan?

I bought a second hand ipad mini without a simm chip. Can I buy one at the Verizon store and get a pre-paid plan?

IPad mini unless branded for Verizon use will not be accepted for prepaid use. Apple will tell you that the mini is compatable with all carriers, you simply walk into the carrier of choice and ask for a nano Sim.
You pop it in, you turn on cellular if not already on and follow the screen prompts to get you up and running. Its quite easy.
I found my wife's mini only functions on Sprint, T-Mobile and AT&T who I set up service with.
Verizon blocks the activation due to the emeid of the device. Apple says it is fully operable on Verizon but they don't let you activate unless its purchased from them or from Apple to use on their system.
Good Luck

If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must contact the previous owner to get permission to use the device. If you cannot contact the previous owner return the device to where you bought it and get a refund. You will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.
