If you cannot get in touch with the person to whose account the phone is locked, it will be useless to you.

    Try to force your phone into recovery mode. Disconnect it from the computer's USB cord. Turn it off if you can by holding the sleep/wake switch until you see the red slide to off. If you can't turn it off, please continue. Press and hold the home button while plugging it into the computer's USB cord. Continue holding the Home button while iPhone starts up. While starting up, you will see the Apple logo. When you see "Connect to iTunes" on the screen, you can release the Home button and iTunes will display the recovery mode message.  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    Then you can restore your phone:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

  • I bought an iPhone 5 from someone, how long does it take for his Apple ID to come off

    I bought an iPhone 5s from someone second hand, he had put it back to factory settings but when I tried to use it it asked for his Apple ID and password, I contacted him to ask for him to delete his id from the phone, how long does it take after he does that for me to be able to set up the phone with my details?

    This is what should have been done:

    If the seller didn't do the above, you need to get the seller to do this. If you don't, you won't be able to re-activate the phone. It will be useless to you.
    I suspect you may have been scammed.

    You don't. Take it back to them and ask them to unlock it. If they refuse, or if they have now vanished off the face of the earth, you own a brick. There is no way past the activation lock without the proper credentials.

    punzete wrote:
    I can't do it that way. I erase these songs from the iTunes Library, but when I sycronize the iPhone, all these songs are copied again to the Library. Isn't there any way to stop that? Everything I buy on iTunes Store through my iPhone cannot be erased from the iPhone?
    WHY can't you do it the way 100 million people do it?

    I bought an iPhone 4s from someone, this person used all the free iCloud accounts, now is it possible to delete this accounts without getting hold of this person? If not, is there a way of getting another

    Open Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings, so the phone will be wiped to start with your Apple ID and set up iCloud

    I wanted to know how to unlock my iphone, since I had to restore it and when it restarted, it appeared this message: "The SIM card que you currently have installed in this iphone is from a carrier that is not supported under the Currently actuvation policy that is assigned by the server activion. this is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request que this iphone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information. "
    I need help, I use my phone for everything enclusive to work. I appreciate if you can help. I'm from Brazil. My name and giullia.

    Did you purchase this device from Apple or an authorized reseller? It sounds as if you had a device that was jailbroken/hacked to operate on your carrier. Upon updating the iOS, it is now locked back to the original carrier the device was locked to.
    Only the carrier the device is locked to can authorize an unlock. You will need to make contact with that carrier and see if they provide unlocking services, and if they do, if you qualify for an unlock. Otherwise, you are out of luck. One that carrier can take care of the unlocking.

  • I just bought an iphone 4s from someone off of Craigslist and I am using my consumer cellular sim but it's saying I need to contact the carrier to unlock the phone?

    I bought an iphone 4s from someone off of craigslist. I went to update to ios7 (it was running ios5 for some reason) and when it finally updated it said the phone needed to be unlocked by the carrier. I don't know who the original carrier of the phone is or what to do about it.
    I'm using Consumer Cellular and it my sim was working perfectly in my Iphone 4 for 7 months.
    Did I totally get screwed out of $90?
    I think the phone was jailbroken but I'm not sure.

    Only the carrier to whom the device is locked can authorize it's unlocking.
    Consumer Cellular is not a supported carrier.
    Jailbreaking voids all rights to support from Apple and these user to user support forums.

  • Tell me please, how to untie iPhone 4s from Softbank?

    Tell me please, how to untie iPhone 4s from Softbank? The fact that, I now live in Russia and I need the iPhone to work with local operators!

    Purchase Softbank...you'll have to own the company in order to get your phone officially unlocked, as they do NOT offer official unlocking for iPhones. Once you own the company, change the policy & you'll have an unlocked iPhone. Although, it might just be cheaper to purchase an officially unlocked iPhone somewhere else.

    i bought an iphone 4s from someone and i dont know password of his Apple ID and i need to update the apps on my new iphone i need a solution please

    The only solution is to erase the apps and purchase them through your own iTunes Store account. You have no legal right to those apps - the license is not tranferrable - and cannot in any case update them without the orginal purchaser's Apple ID.

    how can i retrieve texts from an earlier back up without changing all the other settings on my iphone?

    You can't. Restoring from a backup is all or none.
    You can use a utility such as this one to extract the messages from the backup on your computer but you can't re-transfer the messages to the Messages app on your iPhone.
