How can i activate my iphone 5 if we dont know the apple id and password
how can i activate my iphone if you dont know the apple id and password.
If you’re being asked for your own Apple ID, either use Apple’s iForgot service or contact their Account Security team.
If you’re being asked for someone else’s Apple ID, you need to contact the device’s original owner(if this is you, take the device and its purchase receipt to a physical Apple Store) or the person who set the lock.

My iphone 4s is 2nd ...then i format..the phone want old user id...how can i used that iphone back because i dont know the id?
There is no other solution - as you have already been told, if you don't have that user id and you cannot contact the previous owner of that id for the phone, then there is absolutely nothing that you can do. You have a useless brick that you can't use.
Nothing else to do. -

How do I get my iphone activated if i cannot remember the apple id and password?
I have an IPhone 4 that I want to pass to my son because I have a new one. I took it off my ATT plan...but now in order for him to use it I have to know the apple id and password to remove it from the account. I got the phone so long ago we no longer have that email address and I've tried every password I've ever used and it doesn't work. Sooo...I was able to get into the old email account by webmail...I changed the password and the email address. Now it still says its hooked to that old email address except now...that old email address is no long an apple ID. HELLLPPP!
Click here and use Apple's iForgot service; if it doesn't work, contact Apple.

To find the apple id in my phone to use it
CContact where you purchased the phone. If they cannot get that removed then ask for a refund. It cannot be removed by anyone else, and Apple will not help. Without it, the phone is useless to you.

I have a 13" MacPro. How can I create a Face Time account. I have an Apple ID and password. When I Google how to create an account all I get is what I need for the system
You don't need to create an account. Your use your Apple ID to log into Facetime.
If you haven't already you will need to download the Facetime App from the Mac App Store.

How can you fix your iphone when it is stuck on the apple logo
My Friend has an iPhone 3G(S) and he wanted to put music on his iPhone. So he connected it to iTunes and said that the iPhone Had an iOS update. so he did the update and after the update, it got stop on the apple logo and it got an error and the iPhone is not responding and it is stuck on the Apple Logo.
Alright Hernan there are a couple of steps you could try.
Your first step has been mentioned twice, that is a "Hard reset". This can be done by holding both the Power/Lock Button (Top left hand corner of the device) and the Home Button (Circular button in the Bottom-Middle of the device) for about 3-5 seconds until the device shuts down, then attempt to start it up again.
If this fails, you may have to take a rather drastic measure and put the device into "Forced Recovery Mode". This will erase all your data on your iPhone (So I'd hope you won't have to do this unless you backed up recently) and reset it to an empty device.
To do this, head over to this article on the Apple Support Site and follow the instructions.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808.
It does say for unable to restore or update, but look for the section where it says "Use the following steps to place your device into recovery mode."
Hope this helps you!

You've encountered activation lock.
There is no way to bypass it. If you can't get hold of whoever you bought it from, just turn it over to the police. It's probably a stolen phone.

How can i find my iphone even if i dont connect my apple id in icloud
pls help me
There is only one way to find a lost or stolen device: you MUST have gone to Settings > iCloud > Find My > ON, and you must have an iCloud account. You then login to the iCloud account and click Find My Phone. If the device is turned on and connected to the internet it should show up
If any of those steps is not true, the device will not show up and cannot be ttracked by anyone, even Apple. -

The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required.
If you cannot get this information from the seller
Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
You need to return the Device for a refund, as you will not be able to re-activate it.
