ASk your friend who unlock the phone for him/her.
ONly the carrier that the phone is locked to is authorized to unlock it.
bAse on your description, it sounds like your friend had his/her phone hacked to unlock it from the original carrier.

The iCloud backup includes most things except non-iTunes purchased but the iTunes backup does not include those either. For what iCloud includes see:

I needed to reset my iPod touch because my pass code was changed and I didn't know what it was, but now iTunes wont let me restore it what do I do?

Please help me!! I needed to reset my iPod touch because my pass code was changed and I didn't know what it was, but now iTunes wont let me restore it what do I do?

You'll need to connect it to the iTunes library you normally sync it with and restore it. If iTunes asks you for this passcode before it will let you proceed, connect the iPod to iTunes in recovery mode instead using the instructions in this Apple support document.

Sent photos from iPhone to email and messenger on iPad intercepted but now will not let me see them. Help?

Sent photos from iPhone to email and messenger on iPad intercepted but now will not let me see them. Help?

If you sent the photos directly from the Photos app, it is quite possible that you selected Message rather than Mail when you emailed them to yourself. I assume that is how they ended up in the Messages app. I also assume that you no longer have the old phone or you could just email them to yourself again. Is that a correct assumption? If you cannot access the photos on the old phone any longer, and you can see them in the messages app randomly, try closing the Messages app completely and reset the device and then see if the photos reappear.
In order to close the Messages app, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to Messages and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Your redemption code was used to acquire an activation code. The activation code is what you need to use when you want to reinstall/enable the software again. Check your Adobe account online to see if the number(s) can be found there.

The screen is telling you to connect the iPod to your computer and restore via iTunes. You may have to also place the iPod in recovery mode in ordrer to allow a restore. For recovry mode:

Hello
I buy a i phone 3GS from a friend

I delete all the apps , i restored my phone with i tunes to the begin
Now my iphone is asking me to activate the sim card butt its not working .
I tried everything can some body help me please ! thanks

More than likely it was locked to a carrier and was jailbroken to unlock it. Now that you tried to update it, it has locked back to the original carrier. The only way to continue is to find who the carrier was it is locked to and see if they provide unlocking services and see if you qualify. If you knowingly purchased a jailbroken device, you should have known what would happen if you tried to update it. You have also forfeited your support from Apple and these forums.
