You will need the previous owner's Apple ID and Password to:
1. Turn off Find My iPhone
2. Erase device
3. Reactivate device

  • I bought a used iPod off eBay and it has the other owners apple id on it so how do I change it to match my iPad that I own?

    I bought a used iPod on eBay and the previous owners apple ID is still showing up so how do I change it to my existing apple id I already have?
    When I go to the apple store it works but if I go to apps to download something it only shows the previous owners apple ID and I don't know where to go to change it to mine.

    You would change it in settings.
    You chould read the manual.
    I would reccommend restoring as new.

  • How can I set a password for my pictures on iPad Air ?

    How can I set a password for my pictures on iPad Air ? if anyone have my iPad access mail or something I don't want anyone access my photos so how can I set it up.

    You can't set a password for the Photos nor Mail apps, you can only set a passcode for your iPad as a whole (via Settings > Passcode).
    There are third-party photo management apps such as Photo Manager Pro which you can copy your photos into from the Photos app (and then delete them from Photos), that app allows you (via its settings within the app) to set a password to access it.
    For email you could access your email via a browser (and not have your password stored in the browser), or see if there are any email apps in your country's app store which have a password option

    i got n-track long time ago with my apple id... how can transfer app from that apple id to the apple id im using now?

    Content and Apple IDs -
    Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with one Apple ID with a new Apple ID.

  • HT5620 How can I set up two separate accounts on one iPad?

    How can I set up two separate accounts on one shared iPad?

    The iPad is meant to be a single user device.
    It is possible to use multiple ID's on an iOS device, but when you switch ID's and download content with another ID, you associate the device with that ID for 90 days and lock yourself out of the other ID for that 90 day period.
    So while it is possible, it's not advisable.

  • How can I set Firefox to print to PDF, the only otions I have are (1) My Canon printer, (2) Fax or (3) Microsoft XPS document writer. There is no option for PDF

    A couple of weeks ago, from the file menu, in my print options was to print a web page to PDF, that facility is no longer there. does anyone know how can I set Firefox to print to PDF.
    The only options I have are (1) My Canon printer, (2) Fax or (3) Microsoft XPS document writer. There is no option for PDF

    Firefox generally displays the printers in Windows' Printers folder (Start orb > Devices and Printers). If it is missing one of the printers listed there, could you indicate which one it is, for example, Adobe Distiller, PrimoPDF, CutePDF Writer, etc.?
    If you previously had an add-on which added print-to-PDF functionality just to Firefox, perhaps it got disabled. You could check here:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Add-ons > Extensions
    Also, are you really running Firefox 8.0.1? That version from last November is no longer secure and has been superseded by Firefox 11. If you browse the web widely, you should update for your security.

  • How can we set a process chain to trigger the nodes w/o manual intervention

    SDNers,
    We have a Master PC which has the loading & activation of some Hierarchies.Wats happening is some of the hier activations are failing (we got track of the root cause as well) and the nodes below are not getting triggered automatically, eventhough they have been designed to get triggered irrespective of success or failure of this hierarchy activation. The chain prompts for the u2018Status change & trigger the following eventsu2019 opo-up and only when it was said u2018yesu2019, the subsequent node gets triggered in the chain. If this manual intervention was not there, the Chain gets struck at the activation node, whic is running in yellow status for long, though a short dump - error has already been thrown.
    My query is how can we set a process chain not to anticipate the manual intervention of chnaging the status & trigger events pop-up

    Hi ravi,
    i'm not sure abt the query but what i got thru ur qustion is u have to automtaically go to the next load/step even the proceess chain fails in the step......
    for that we have the same master meta chains with link of so many local chains...for this even if there are some interventions/fails in between the process chains it never gets stopped....
    it goes to the next step and we'll work, analyse and finish the failed load manually....the next day it'll be
    fine...
    b4 to this make sure that there is no dependency for the previous loads....
    And now the solution i found for this is in the process chain design itself.......
    while giving the links itself we'll be getting the options as status RED,GREEN and RED(or)GREEN.....now if u got for the third option the event goes to the next step even it is unsuceesful....
    rgds,
    nkr.
