You can't, i'm sorry. What you're running into is the activation lock and it requires that the original owner release it with their apple ID before you can set it up.

    Click here and reset the password. If you've forgotten the Apple ID, you can recover it from the same site.

  • How can i update an app that was installed on a disabled account?

    I had an account but disabled it because I made another one.
    On the app store it says update an app but I cant because it was installed on the first account which is disabled.
    Is it possible for me to update it without uninstalling and installing it again on my new account as I dont want to buy the app again?

    The only way to be able download the update to the app on your new account would be to delete the app from your iPad (which will also delete all of its content/settings) and buy/download it on your new account - you can't merge accounts nor transfer content from one account to another account.
    You might be able to re-enable the first account via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
    You might then need to log out of your account on your iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it.

  • HT1766 How can I retreive a video that was deleted from my iphone??

    How can I retreive a video that was deleted from my iphone??

    If it was a video taken on your iPad, and if you have it backed up from the last time you did an iTunes (or iCloud) backup, then yes, you can restore your iPad using that backup.

  • TS1702 How can I delete an app that was purchased?

    How can I delete an app that was purchased?

    Delete an App Store app: Touch and hold its icon on the Home screen until the icon starts to jiggle, then tap the "x" . You can’t delete built-in apps. When you finish, press the Home button.
    Deleting an app also deletes all of its data. You can re-download any app you’ve purchased from the App Store, free of charge

    Hi Toniann,
    If you have a recent iCloud backup that was done when that message was on the devcie, you can restore from that backup.
    No, Apple does not keep your messages, no do they have access to them. That would be a serious invasion of privacy, don't you think?

    If you had iOS 7 BETA installed, just go to developer.apple.com and log in using your developer account.  There are discussions about this issue.  Otherwise...  for non-developers, I'm afraid you're on your on.  Use Google.

  • How to remove the old email address that was hacked from my iCloud account when iCloud won't let me?

    How to remove the old email address that was hacked from my iCloud account when iCloud won't let me?
    Pretty much the the email that I used (but didn't verify) to create my iCloud account was hacked and now I can't remove it from my iCloud account due to the iCloud password also being changed by the same person and the fact I had "Find my iPhone" app on my phone also??? I had to change my iTunes email as well but that was far easier so yeah :S.
    Please help. I live in NZ, out in the country, so reception is rare and so is getting into the nearest town that has an Apple Store.
    Thanks

    If you truly change your existing Apple ID's email address to a new email address, follow these instructions: iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
    If you created a whole new Apple Account because you couldn't access the old one after being hacked, you will need to contact the Apple Account Security Team. Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security

    I have Photoshop Lightroom 5 and have downloaded Camera Raw 8.7.1 &DNG converter successfully. I have a new Sony Alpha 7 11 model ILCE-A7M2 that is supported by LR5. I am still not able to see the RAW pictures. The message says preview unavailable for this file DSC-ARW. Whatelse I should be doing to see my pictures? Can someone help?

    The support for that camera was added in the very latest release of Lightroom, version 5.7.1. Having downloaded Camera Raw 8.7.1 will have no effect on Lightroom because Lightroom doesn't use the Camera Raw plug-in. You need to make sure you have updated Lightroom to the very latest release in order to have support for that camera.

  • Not able to visualize the person I'm calling on Skype anymore, now that upgraded to Mountain Lion operating system. Any suggestions?

    Right after I downloaded the new Mountain Lion OS, I was not able to see the person I'm calling on Skype. The person I'm calling has no issue with the video streaming, however. Is this a Mountain Lion issue, a Skype issue or some of each? From looking at the Skype site, it seems alot of other people are having similar problems with using all the functions of Skype since downloading the new OS.

    Are you using the most recent version of Skype?
    Also, if the person on the far end is using a Mac or an iPad, you may want to consider FaceTime.  The video quality is scads better.

  • HT204023 I am not able to use the personal hotspot in the new ipad 4g version. Please help me out in this case

    I am not able to use the personal hot spot in the ipad 3 the new one .

    It should be in Settings > General > Network > Personal Hotspot - if it's not there then have you checked with your carrier to see if they support it on the iPad (and even if they support it on the iPhone they don't necessarily also support it on the iPad) ? It may also be an extra fee/subscription from them, and you could check if there is a carrier update.
