Contact the original cellular provider, as they are the only ones that can provide unlocking.

I brought a Iphone 4s from someone and they never give me their apple id and password. Now I the phone but its lock , how do I unlock it ?
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.

I have bought a second hand ipad 2 its locked to orange can this be unlocked
i have bought a ipad 2 second hand its locked to orange can this be unlocked
Sorry, this isn't a reply. Just wondering.
What have you done since? I have the same problem with iPad I bought second hand from an individual. The seller won't give me refund or provide me previous owner's contact info. Apple Support told me to contact local police to locate the original owner so I did. Since police didn't have report for this iPad's serial number they won't handle this as theft. I live in Utah and the seller I met with told me he is from Northern India so who knows which country this iPad came from. I wish to let the original owner know i have his/ her missing iPad since Apple doesn't care about consumers once they sold their products. -

Hey, i bought an iphone from online shop as a used phone and its locked by orange france, i contact them to unlock it but they refused, they said that we regret to inform you that we'r not able to unlock second hand phones? I need your help please. Its not fair , apple should figure it out
Regards,
OrangeThis is no different with any carrier locked phone. Getting a carrier locked phone officially unlocked is the responsibility of the carrier, not the cell phone manufacturer. A cell phone manufacture cannot unlock a carrier locked phone without the carrier's authorization.
An iPhone sold as officially unlocked when new can be used by others as a second hand phone, and the same with any carrier locked iPhone that can be unlocked by the carrier, and many carriers offer it. -

i cant activate my iphone 5c because it has been locked with a different apple id. i dont know the original owner so i need help. its a second-hand phone that i bought some months back
Unfortunately, there is pretty much nothing you can do. Only the owner of the account used to lock it can remove the lock. If you can't contact whoever you purchased it from, or if they can't or won't remove the lock, then it's a brick. There is a very real chance that it's stolen.

I brought second hand iphone4 but i cannot open it because the owner forgot her apple id and password, how can i reformat this without reformating my phone outside? what can i do to open this? its till on the set up mode
There is nothing you can do about but ask the seller for your money back. Without the previous owners applid password, you cannot activate and use that device - there is no way around that. iOS 7's Activation Lock needs to be disabled by the previous owner in order for you to use it - if they cannot (or willnot) produce the password to disable it, you have no options.
They can disable it remotely for you - see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5661 but not if they do not remember their own password. -

Find My iPhone Activation Lock- Removing a device from a previous owner's account
Without the previous owner turning off Find My Phone and erasing it for you, the phone is useless. -
I have a sprint sim card but its locked and i don't remember the apple id for it. If i buy a new sprint sim card will I still have to put in the apple id? Or is the iPhone no good?
If you have iOS 7 and have turned on Find My Phone in Settings > iCloud, you will have to remember the Apple ID to unlock the iPhone...the Activation Lock is an anti-theft protection that you cannot bypass.
The only hope you have is to take it and proof that you are the owner to an Apple store genius bar and see if there is anything they can do. In general the answer is no, but give it a try. -

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. -

Bought a used imac but its locked by old username and password
bought a used imac but its locked by old username and password
The first thing you should do with a second-hand computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. How you do that depends on the model. Look it up on this page to see what version was originally installed.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc, which you can get from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller — not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. I suggest you install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for some MacBook Air models. If you don't have the media, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
To boot from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then reboot and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should boot into Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
Once booted from the disc or in Internet Recovery, launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive — not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive, which is what you should do.
After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. When the installation is done, the system will automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
You should then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. If you want to upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, buy it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the previous owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed — you have to repurchase them.
If the previous owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Apple customer service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able toauthorize it under your ID. In that case, contact iTunes Support. -
Hi all, I have bought a second hand iphone 5s and have found it is still activated to the last user... i can't get hold of them anymore, how can i get the phone activated in my name?
If iOs 7 is installed on that iPhone, you will not be able to activate it without
the requested information. It is called Activation Lock and is a security
feature built into iOS 7. There is no workaround.
