HT201441 what do you do if you buy an used iphone ofline and you try setting it up but you need there icloud but have no contact with them what do i dooo..?.
what do i doo
If you bought a used iPhone and it is asking for the previous owners Apple ID and password, that iPhone is unusable. That is the Activation Lock, an anti-theft protection system that cannot be bypassed, not even Apple can touch that. You must get the Apple ID and password from the previous owner or get them to remove the iPhone from their iCloud devices or you will never be able to use it.

Can you shuffle a single playlist when using iphone 3GS and nike+?
Ok...can't seem to figure this out. Been using the nano 4g with nike plus and I can set the playback mode to shuffle on the ipod... when I start a work out with nike plus and select my "running" playlist, it retains the shuffle - meaning it shuffles the songs of that single playlist.
Started using my iphone 3gs and I can't figure out how to set the playback of a SINGLE playlist to shuffle (I see the option for shuffle across ALL playlists) but I only want my "running" playlist to shuffle.
Am I missing something?
thanks...Never mind... found the answer... thanks to Matt kennedy:
Nike+ and the iPod functionality of your 3Gs are both apps which are capable of running in the background, per se. Start your iPod app, shuffle the playlist of your choice and THEN start the Nike+ app. When you get into your workout, select "now playing." This will stick with your shuffled songs. -

I just want to active my apple store card for once on my life without calling or asking help from the apple suppourt
There are millions of folks that use Gift Cards without incident.
It seems that you are having extremely bad luck, may be doing something the same way every time that gives the same result or there may be something wrong with your account.
Call Apple Support in the same way you have in the past - but this time, rather than just solve your immediate issue, get them to look into the overall problem of "this happens EVERY TIME" - what am I doing wrong or is there something that you can do to fix this?

You may need to try this More than Once...
Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps...
Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
To minimise loss... Connect to iTunes on the computer you Usually Sync with and Restore from the most recent Backup...

Hello
that is able to separate an apple icloud account My IMEI *******.
I buy a Used iphone 5c ios 7.1.1 but after restore it asks me iCloud account.
I have no contact with the seller.
thank you for your reply
<Edited by Host>The iPhone has Activation Lock and will require you to have the previous owner's Apple ID and password or you'll need to get the previous owner to remove the device from his/her iCloud account:

If you can't reach the previous owner or he/she is unwilling to cooperate, then the device is unusable by you. Return the iPhone for a refund if you can.

What can i do if i buy a stolen iphone from ebay?
what can i do if i buy a stolen iphone from ebay, can i change in apple with the ticket of ebay?
You should report the seller to the local authorities and to eBay. Of course, when you report it to the local authorities, they will probably also hold the stolen property as evidence... You can provide the police report number to eBay in your filing with them.

I'm looking for a digital picture frame that is compatible with the iPhone 5 and 4S. I was looking at the Panasonic MW-20 but from what I can see I don't think it is. Any information would be great. Looking to buy a replacement for Christmas. Thanks!
Hi - the new lightning connector on the iPhone 5 has an authentication chip so very few 3rd party manufacturers have come out with compatible devices - so I doubt that you will find a frame that works for both phones - however Apple has come out with 2 apapters - one is a cable and one is a direct 30 pin to lightning device - you would have to check out each frame to see if one of these might work - I looked at the Panasonic and it looks promising but I would check the return policy of anything that you buy in a case it doesn't work.

What do I do when I buy credits through a game and pay for it, but I don't receive the credits :S
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History on your computer.
Currently, if your purchase happens to be your most recent purchase you will not be redirected to the report form, in this case use the report a problem option from the invoice that was emailed to you. -
now i cant go in why

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. -

Can you shut off the Internet on a iPhone 4s and still use it with a wifi connection ?
Can you shut off the Internet on a iPhone 4 and then use the phone as normal
I assume that you're asking if you can shut off cellular data (as no individual can shut off the Internet! )? Yes, you can turn off cellular data and use the phone features (except for MMS which requires cellular data) and access the Interenet via WiFi.
