How can i use my phone if i forgot the apple id and password to activate my phone
i reset my iPhone 4s because it has been disabled and once i go in its feeling me i have to activate it but i can't remember what apple id and password i used. i need help!
How many Apple IDs do you have? The prompt should show you a few letters from the email address to remind you. You can always reset your password using this page:
https://appleid.apple.com/
Resetting the password will require that you have access to the email address associated with the AppleID or that you remember your security questions.
If you cannot reset the password , take it to an Apple Store with your proof of purchase and they may help you.

You cannot get around Activation Lock without the oringinal owner disassociating the iPad from their account.
See the Activation Lock FAQ for what you and they need to know. -

how can i gps locaite my ipod for free with my apple id and password?
Hi donald,
You can only "locate" your iPhone using Find My iPhone. It must be enabled, and you must have iCloud....

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.

I brought second hand iphone4 but i cannot open it because the owner forgot her apple id and password, how can i reformat this without reformating my phone outside? what can i do to open this? its till on the set up mode
There is nothing you can do about but ask the seller for your money back. Without the previous owners applid password, you cannot activate and use that device - there is no way around that. iOS 7's Activation Lock needs to be disabled by the previous owner in order for you to use it - if they cannot (or willnot) produce the password to disable it, you have no options.
They can disable it remotely for you - see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5661 but not if they do not remember their own password. -
I RECENTLY PURCHASED ANOTHER IPHONE. MY INTERNET IS NOT WORKING. I JUST CREATED AN APPLE ID. WHAT'S NEXT? I NOW HAVE TWO DIFFERENT ACCOUNTS WITH DIFFERENT USER NAMES. HOW CAN I USE ONLY ONE ACCOUNT FOR ITUNES, ICLOUD APPLE ID ETC???
Welcome to the Apple community.
iTunes and iCloud and different accounts, you will need to delete both accounts from your device before adding the new details in their place.
For iCloud go to settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit the delete button. You can then sign back in using your correct details. For iTunes go to settings >store, tap your account ID and then sign out, you can then sign back in using your correct Apple ID. -

Please Help me .. im from Philippines
thx a lot apple company
<Email Edited By Host>This is not Apple we are all users here
You will need to obtain the original Apple id ,that is the only way to unlock it
Speak to the original owner .If you cannot it is likely the iPhone was stolen and the activation lock is preventing use by a third party that is you -
It says could not connect to the ipod because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter our passcode on the ipod before it can be used with Itunes. I forgot the passcode so how can I enter/ restore/reset it?
As the linked articl says, 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.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store -

hi, can anyone tell me, if i purchase a used iphone4, how will i be able to register it with my apple id? currently what ever i do it asks me for the apple id and password of the previous owner. Please help
you have to restore to ios 6 and then sign in with your own apple id,
any apps etc on the iphone now, will not be able to be backed up and used in the future as they are not linked to your apple ID. and if you plan on using the previous owners ID then you need there [*** which I assume you dont have.
simply just restore using itunes then setup as new with all your details and your done, you can go to the appstore and start getting your own apps -
