Buy a second hand iphone but Upgradable IOS7 calls me an ID that desconosco
comprar una segunda mano iphone pero actualizable IOS7 me llama un ID que desconosco
Take it, its original purchase receipt, and his death certificate to a physical Apple Store. If you can’t get those or the staff won’t unlock the device for you, you can’t activate or use it.

pls. help me about find my iphone lock. because i buy a second hand iphone 4s but still lock to the previous owner when i restore factory settings still searching for the previous owner of this phone still now i cant use this phone
Hello jimmy ii
The only option is to contact that person to have them remove Activation Lock from the iPhone. They can do it online and do not have to come to you. Check out the article below for more information.

Hi All, I want to buy a second hand iphone as a gift. Can a apple store identify whether the phone has been dropped so that I can make sure it has not been damaged?
I thought they had diagnostic test at the genius bar that can show a accelerometer log if there has been a fall.

I would like to buy a second hand iphone, I have a question
Hi all,
I am thinking about buying second hand iPhone 6, but what if the buyer will report to Apple that the phone has been stolen after selling it? How can I avoid this situation?
ThanksThere's no mechanism in place for anyone to report stolen phones to Apple thus they don't get involved. That job is for the police dept. Knowing what the seller needs to do before selling the phone might help you before purchasing it.

Find My iPhone Activation Lock- Removing a device from a previous owner's account
Without the previous owner turning off Find My Phone and erasing it for you, the phone is useless. -
Looking to buy a new handset to replace my old stolen one. I've found one that is listed as being locked on EE, but my contract isn't with them. Can I get it unlocked in any way? I have the IEMI number if that helps to make sure it's not also a stolen phone.
Only EE can authorize the unlcok so you would need to verify it with them as nobody here would know.

If i buy a second hand iphone can i check if it is stolen first?
Hi
i have a great chance to get a US 4gb iphone, which i'm sure will be a collectors item in the future.I have no reason to suspect it is stolen but simply am trying to be sensible, better safe than sorry.
Can i check to see if the iphone is/was stolen?
Or trace the previous original first owner?
Is there a data base for this kind of thing?
thanksBoth AT&T and Apple know who the owner is. But under their privacy policies they probably won't tell you. If you call AT&T with the serial number they MAY tell you if it is stolen.

No one here can assist you with that.
The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required
If you do not have that information you will not be able to use the Device.

Remove icloud after buying a second hand iphone
Hi!
How can I remove the previous icloud account from my iphone?
thanks!You should restore the phone as a new device to remove everything from it, not just the iCloud account.
See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3828 -
please help me on this, im having a hard time to resolve it on my own..
The previous owner has to disassociate/unregister their device from their Apple ID - you cannot do it for them.

If the seller has not done this, you might want to schedule a visit to your nearest Genius Bar. -
Where is the best place to buy second hand iPhones?
Someone said that Melbourne had the longest turnaround times for Apple service work. Let me tell you the guys at the St Kilda Apple Service Centre turned my job around in 2 days... but my question is where is the best place to buy second hand iPhones in Melbourne?
There is no reliable place to buy any second-hand iPhone other than from someone you know personally. There is no way to know for certain that any iPhone you buy from a stranger isn't jailbroken, stolen, or reported lost and replaced (and hence probably blocked by the carrier). The only reliable place to buy an iPhone is from Apple or an authorized iPhone dealer.
This is the iMac forum, by the way.

HT201269 second hand iPhone 5 help please.
If I buy a second hand iPhone 5 (unblocked) on ios 6 and the previous owner doesn't have/won't give me/can't give me his Apple ID is there anyway I can use this phone?
The phone may be locked with a passcode. If it is, follow the directions here, to force the phone into recovery mode & restore it:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
This will remove the passcode, but also update the phone to iOS 7.0.4...no way around this if there's a passcode on the phone. If no passcode, just do the erase all settings & content if you don't want to update the phone.
Good luck. -

i am to purchase a second hand iphone 4. but the seller says it can't be used as a phone as it doesn't have a sim card slot. he says he is not aware if the phone is unlocked or not... should i buy this phone??
Depends
If you need a cellphone then No.
If he wants more than $1 then No.
I would suggest that you buy an iPod Touch from Apple. -
