I bought an iphone4 from a friend. She forgot her icloud password
I bought an iphone4 from a friend who said the phone was clear. The 'Find My Phone' is on & her icloud account controls it. She says she forgot her password. How can i remove her icloud account without the password?
You can't. Have her reset her password as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2617.

I bought an iphone4 from a friend and he was using it on orange i have put my o2 sim in the phone and it is saying restricted network with no service any ideas thanks
That is because the phone is locked to the Orange network and an o2 sim card is not going to work with a phone that is locked to Orange.
You either need to purchase an Orange sim card and use that in the phone, or you need to get your friend to contract Orange and get the phone unlocked so that you can use an 02 sim card.
At the moment you will never be able to use the 02 sim card if the phone is locked to Orange. Either use Orange or get the phone unlocked. It is as simple as that. -
Hi I bought an iPhone from my friend who forgot the username and password, and now my iPhone Aktyvyshn code and that it wants to register Forgot your password to her email, please guide me
You can NOT do so. Only the owner of the account used to lock the phone can remove it. Instructions for how to do so can be found within or linked from within the document I already linked to.
Activation lock is an anti-theft feature designed to make the device useless to anyone other than the rightful owner.
If your friend refuses to give your money back and can not or will not remove the activation lock, there is a fair possibility that the phone was not theirs to sell in the first place. -
I have bought an iPhone4S from a friend but have no purchase date. How do I register it?
The phone is legal but I cant trace the original date of purchase.
This process will STILL register the device as belonging to the customer with Apple. I JUST registered a device that I'd never registered with Apple before, and it shows as valid in their system.
Register & Add Products
Register your Apple hardware products here. Please note that Apple software and accessories cannot be registered using My Support Profile at this time.
Please enter your serial number.
The website you mentioned is closed, that part is correct. However, registering your products with Apple is still possible.
The other method is to call Apple Support, and they can manually register your product. -
my iphone is disabled. how do I restore it?
You'll have to use a computer to restore your phone. If you hold down the home button while plugging your phone into your computer itunes should recognize that it is in recover mode. Then you'll have to restore the phone as new.

I bought an apple iphone4 from a friend and they had lost and dont remember the apple id nor password can some tell me how to reset the phone and or both
It is not possible. You have hit Activation Lock, an anti theft measure. The last owner is the only one who can unlock it with their Apple ID. Tell them to go here

We bought a ipad from a friend but she doesnt know the email address or password she used to set it up we have already reset it what can we do now?
Well, a portion of it will appear in the activation screen. It could be enough to jog her memory. She is going to have to reset the password so she can remove the device. If she cannot remove the device from her account, the device is useless to you. If she does not want to try and remove it, then demand your money back. Apple cannot assist you. If however, she purchased the device new, she can take the device and the original sales slip to an actual Apple Store and they may be able to help.

MMy wife had bought an iPad from a friend. My wife already has an iPhone, which is registered to iCloud. She cannot acces iCloud from the new iPad. It says her username and password is not authorised. What do we need to do.
This could be a couple different things.
The device is not authorized to the Apple ID.
Continue setup for the ID on the device.
There is an account issue
Is she able to get signed in at
Appleid.apple.com
and manage the account
Can she get signed in at
Supportprofile.apple.com ?
How many devices are registered to that Apple ID? -

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. -
So I bought an ipad from a friend's friend that was leaving to his home country but the ipad is linked to his account and I can't reach him to ask for the information that the ipad is asking so I was wondering if there is a way that I can reset the ipad without me having to enter his apple id and password.
No, there is not.
That person will have to release the iPad from Find My iPad or you will not be able to use it.

ive got a laptop from a friend, she cleared everything off it. ive downloaded itunes and for some reason all her music has appeared in the library. How do i delete her music from the itunes libary so i can add my own music?
In iTunes, select the music you want to delete (⌘+a to select all) and hit Delete on your keyboard.
Also delete the music files in Finder. Also make sure you have your own Apple ID and iTunes account and logged in. -

Re: Is Iphoto gone ? i want it back!

Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
Install the App from the App Store.
Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always. -
i bought my iphone from a lady at the mall but she didnt remember her icloud password well now i keep getting pop ups about the icloud password but she doesnt remember it and whenever i try turning it off it asks me for the password but i dont know it?
That is the activation lock. Your iPad will be useless unless you can remove it.
