How to reset ipad if i dont know the icloud info

help

If it is Activation locked, there is no way around that without knowing the Apple ID and password. If you aren't the original owner and it is the prior owner's information, you will need to contact that person. If you have just forgotten the following can help with that:

    is there anyway to find out my password for my backup?

    Do not know the password for what?  To unlock the device????
    If you do not know the password for the device that makes me question if it really belongs to you or not.
    The backup can be password protected, but that is ONLY needed to restore from backup.
    Maybe you can explain exactly what you are doing so we can better assist you.

    You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
    You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.
    Also, see iTunes- Restoring iOS software.

  • Dont know my icloud password and cant reset my iphone. Help!

    I got a new iphone 6 today and took it back home to sync it with my laptop. Unfortunately it synced with an old email account that I dont use anymore and also when my iphone had a restrictions passcode on it. I know how to reset the iphone using itunes but I can't do that becuase I dont know the icloud password. I need the icloud password because I cant reset the iphone until find my iphone is off. Does anyone know what I can do to fix this?

    You will need to do the following:
    1.     Go to Manage your Apple ID and change your current Apple ID back to the old email address (this is temporary - do NOT verify it, do NOT change the password): Apple - My Apple ID
    2.     Sign into your iCloud account on your new device using the current password, and turn off Find My iPhone. Check to make sure that iCloud is not also signed on under the old ID on the device. If it is, sign it off: Settings>iCloud. Also check Settings>Messages, Settings>FaceTime, and Settings>iTunes & App Store, and if any of those are signed on with your old Apple ID, sign them off.
    3.     Go back to Manage your Apple ID and change your Apple ID back to the current email address. You will probably have to verify it.
    4.     Sign onto the apps listed above with your current Apple/iTunes/iCloud ID.
    Cheers,

    Click here and search the article for '2 out of 3' without the quotes; this generally involves either a message being sent to your rescue email address or contacting the iTunes Store staff directly.

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

    i want to change my security questions.but the security questions reset is on an other email e dont know the email... how can i put a other email so i can reset it? and i got money on it

    If you don't have access to your rescue email account (you won't be able to change it until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551
    e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then try Apple ID Account Security
    or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
