I dont have any contact detail of that person whom i had bought this phone..

If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must contact the previous owner to get permission to use the device. If you cannot contact the previous owner return the device to where you bought it and get a refund. You will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.

    Contact the other person and have them remove the iPhone from their iCloud.com FindMyiPhone account.

  • What happens when you got Setting; iCloud, Account and hit "Delete Account" . What get deleted from where?

    When mywife set up her iPhone for iCloud, she entered my  .me account the she uses for purchases rather than hers that she wants to sync contacts, etc.. from. Can she simply go to settings, icloud, account and 'delete account' and then add the correct one? delete scares me ;-) And it MY account. Not sure what is getting deleted.

    Should be under
    Settings - > iCloud -> Remove account (Big red button at the bottom of hte list)

    I am having some trouble trying to back up my notes to my iCloud

    Not photos, just data synced with iCloud shown in Settings>iCloud.  If you don't have sufficient storage to back up to iCloud, back up to your computer instead using iTunes (connect you phone to your computer, open iTunes, click on the name of your phone in iTunes, go to ths Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and click Back Up Now).  Also transfer your purchases to your iTunes library (connect your phone to your computer, open iTunes and go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases). If you have photo stream photos older than 30 days tha you wan to save, save these to your camera roll before backing up (tap Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon -- box with upward facing arrow, then tap Save to Camera Roll).
    When setting up your new phone, when given the option choose Restore from iTunes Backup and restore the backup you made earlier.

  • Hye. can i claim warranty my iphone if i has problem to delete icloud account?? tq

    hye guys. i wanna ast you all can i claim under warranty my Iphone 5 if i problem with my ilcoud account. I cannot verify and delete iclound account. tq

    iCloud accounts cannot be deleted. You can sign in with another iCloud account. If you have encountered the activation lock, wherein you will need to eneter the Apple ID and password that was used to first activate the phone, you will need to eneter the correct information.

  • HT5622 When my daughter got her first iphone we set it up with my email address, she now has her own email & new iphone.  I want to use my email address for my icloud, can I delete the content  from the icloud account and continue to use my email?

    When my daughter got her first iphone we set it up with my email address, she now has her own email & new iphone.  I want to use my email address for my icloud, can I delete the content from the icloud account and continue to use my email?

    Yes, but be sure she is on a separate iCloud account with a separate ID before deleting anything.  Be sure there is nothing that you want to keep on your device too.  When you delete the data from iCloud it will be deleted from all devices signed into the account.  Then you can delete the data from the existing account by doing the following:
    To delete the contacts, go to iCloud.com from your computer, log into your iCloud account and open Contacts, click on All Contacts on the left, to the right click on any single contact to select it, click on the Actions (gear shaped) icon at the bottom left and choose Select All, then press the Delete key on your keyboard.
    For Calendars, open the calendar on icloud.com, click Edit on the bottom left, then tap the minus sign to the right of each calendar to delete it.
    For Notes, open notes on icloud.com, click on each note on the left, then click Delete at the top to delete it.
    For Reminders, open reminders on icloud.com, click on each reminder and press your Delete key to delete it.
    For Mail, open your mail on icloud.com, click each folder on the left (such as your inbox), click on a single message to the right, press Control-A on your keyboard to select them all, then press your Delete key.  Repeat this for each of your mail folders except Trash.  When finished, click on the actions (gear-shaped) icon on the bottom left and select Empty Trash.
    If you also want to delete your iCloud backups you can go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage on your device, tap the name of your device under Backups, then tap Delete Backup.

  • Tried to delete iCloud account from my iPad but won't delete

    I have an old iCloud account - apple id [email protected] (can't access, can't delete from iPad).  Don't know password, associated email or answer to secret question.  It is making my iPad very difficult to use by constantly asking for iCloud password.  Followed the steps to delete iCloud account and it asks for a password which I no longer have.

    Hi, danfdent.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    If you are asked for the password for your old Apple ID and wish to delete the account, check out the steps in the article below.

  • I bought iphone from Canada but now I'm in Thailand and I upgraded to ios6 but I couldn't turn on wifi and back up on icloud so I want to know that how can I claim my iphone with apple care because no apple store in Thailand. Thank you.

    I bought iphone from Canada but now I'm in Thailand and I already upgraded to ios6 but It doesn't work well.I couldn't turn on wifi and back up on icloud so I want to know how can I do with my iphone because no apple store in Thailand.Can I send it to any apple care which is easy and near my country? Thank you.

    You can find a local shop and pay to get it fixed or you will need to send the phone to someone you know in Canada and have them take the phone into Apple for service. Then they will need to ship the phone back to you. The warranty is based in the original country of purchase.
    Decide which is your best option.

  • I just bought an iPhone 4 a few weeks back. I tried to delete their icloud account, and add mine but it's asking for a password to delete it. I have no way to get in contact with them. Is there any way around it?

    There's no way around it.  The former owner needs to erase the phone and remove it from their account as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515.  No one else can help with this, including Apple.

    i had purchased Photoshop Cs5 extended when i had a windows comp now i bought a mac i need to install it again how can i do that

    You would have to purchase a Mac version of CS5. You cannot install a Windows version on a Mac. CS5 is not a current product so you can't get a free platform swap.
    Speak to Customer Service and see if it is possible to upgrade to CS6 ($200), and get what is know as a platform swap to Mac.

    For contact [email protected]

    Sounds like the Activation Lock is still set to the previous owner. If you are unable to get that Apple ID and password that iPhone is totally useless to you.
    Take it back to the shop and demand your money back because they sold it to under false pretenses.

  • Possible reasons for error 1074396005 invalid avi session

    Dear All,
    I am working on creating and writing frames on to AVI files. I need to start writing frames up on record on command and close the AVI file up on record stop command. I am trying to read frames from an recorded video and write in to another AVI file.
    But i am observing Error 1074396005 invalid avi session, whenever i run the code. I am using AVI2 VI's (IMAQ AVI2 Create, AVI2 Write and AVI2 close).
    I am using LabVIEW 2013 SP1 and Vision development module versions.
    Below is the block diagram for reading an avi file and writing in to avi file upon record on command (numeric control value 1 to case selector) 
    Block diagram for record off
    Below is the error observed:
    Kindly suggest what would be the possible reason for the error.
    With regards,
    Sri

    Might be good if you can post the code instead of screenshots.
    -If session was closed or aborted due to some reason you should get this error.
    -Multiple times you are creating the session inside the loop with same avi session, is it required?
    -Are the images added to the avi file?
    Thanks
