A non activated iphone 4 which is disabled because i lent it to someone and they dont know the password.
i lent a family member my iphone 4 and my boyfriend restored it and i was able to get into the phone. a month later i needed to switch over to this phone and for some reason it needed a password but we didnt enter one. we tried everything and we are now completely locked out of this phone. it says to connect to itunes but when i do it says it can not access the phone because of it being locked. i dont know what else to do. i cant get ahold of apple because it keeps saying i need the serial number but that is inside the phone!!! HELP!!!!!!!!
You need to restore using the recovery mode as described in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212

i have a random email for my activation email and i dont know the password and it wont let me active it unless i sign in with that email and password how do i change it so that doesnt pop up or till it doesnt ask for it
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

How can i change delete old Apple ID on my iphone, i dont know the password
i change the Apple ID using my PC. My new Apple ID was verified both email and password. My Ipad air sync to the new Apple ID but my iphone wont sync. And everytime i try to change my Apple ID on my iphone it ask for password of the old Apple ID, but it keep saying incorrect ID and password. I cant delete or change because i dont know the password.
You need to reset the password for the old Apple ID.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5787
FYI - all apps, all paid and free apps include DRM protection which is tied to the Apple ID that was used to download the apps. Not possible to merge or transfer apps downloaded with one Apple ID to another.
This means in order to install an app update with an app that was downloaded with your old Apple ID, you will need to use that Apple ID and password. -

Irrelevant. You have a bill of sale, not an original point-of-purchase sale receipt, which is the only thing that Apple would accept regarding Activation Lock issues.
Why can't you contact the previous owner, if you have a bill of sale? For a bill of sale to be legal in any way, it would have to have some information from the previous owner. -

<E-mail Edited by Host>You need the previous owner to unlock it, unless they do you have a brick there is no other way .
iPhone was probably stolen if you purchased on eBay, claim and get your money back

My iPod is disabled and I dont know the passward, what do I do?
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

i want to delete my i cloude account but i dont know the password of my i cloude account because i bought it from market plz help me
Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can only wipe your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely. -
i bought an iphone 4s from someone and i dont know password of his Apple ID and i need to update the apps on my new iphone i need a solution please
The only solution is to erase the apps and purchase them through your own iTunes Store account. You have no legal right to those apps - the license is not tranferrable - and cannot in any case update them without the orginal purchaser's Apple ID.

how do i fix a phone that is completly locked bc of the ios7? i dont know the previous ower? and i dont know if the phone is stollen.
You don't get it to work. You can not bypass the activation lock. Do you not know who you bought it from? Talk to them. If they can't give you the credentials to unlock it, get your money back. The phone is useless.

That is correct, you now have a paperweight. Unless you can get a hold of the orignal owner.
