If the phone is locked you need the password of the seller to remove their Apple ID.

It is an Iphone 4

If you go to settings- store - click on the ID and sign out. Then you can put in your apple id.

Hello lesley142
To sign out of what ever Apple ID is signed in, go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores and then tap the Apple ID and you will see an option to sign out.
iOS: Sign in with a different Apple ID in the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store

I just bought an iphone from someone else and I can't contact the again to erase the device from their account, is that my only option?

I bought a phone today off Kijiji and now I can't get in it because I don't have the icloude account that this phone was registered with. The person I bought it from is not answering me. Please help me out.

There is nothing we can do, you will have to get a hold of the seller.
This is the new activation lock feature Apple implemented in IOS 7.

I have my iphone 4S backed up to icloud and now I can not get any calender information at all previous to September 2012. I had last backed it up at the end of January and Calender saved to icloud is "on". How can I retrieve my calenders? Help now!

Help! I recorded odometer readings on my work calender on my iphone 4S all last year and now my calenders are blank from September2012 and earlier. It is backed up to icloud. What happened and can I get that information back somehow?

Go to iCloud.com, select the calendar.
Is the information listed in the calendar?
If it is, it should be syncing to the device.
If it is not, then that information is gone.

Can I share a Reminders list with someone else through iCloud?

I am wondering if I can create shared lists with my wife (separate iTunes account) in Reminders on iPhone/iPad that we can instantly update through iCloud. We're essentially talking about grocery lists and the like. (Yes, I know there are grocery apps out there but that's not exclusively what we're trying to do). We both have iOS 6 or higher. I have found a few posts related to this question but it appears as though the sharing functionality might have been lost with a recent iOS upgrade. Not sure though. Could anybody help?

Just updated my phone to IOS7, and all of my contacts have been wiped. Has anyone else had this problem, and how can I get them back?

If someone could help then I would be very grateful, thank you.

Hi Emily,
Hopefully you backed up prior to updating? If so you should be able to get this data back from you backup.

Steve

HT204053 I bought an iPhone from someone and I need to set up an iCloud account and it is not giving me the option? What am I missing

I bought an iPhone from someone and there iCloud account is still on the device. I would like to know how to skip this step or add my own. I have never had an iPhon before so I have no idea what I am doing. Can someone please help me????

Only the previous owner can help you. They either need to provide you with the ID and password to delete the existing account, or erase the device and remove it from their account as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515. If they aren't willing to do that, return it and ask for your money back.

Delete someone else's icloud account on my ipad

I am using an iPad with someone else's iCloud Account number. How do I delete this account and add mine?

Hello genebush,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Please see the information in the article linked to below about removing a previous owner's iCloud information from an iOS device.

If you didn’t erase the drive and install using you AppleID, then the OS and the purchased apps are still registered to the other AppleID. You cannot change that by logging into iCloud. Apps are forever tied to the AppleID used to purchase/download them.
You have to erase the drive and download/install the Apps using your AppleID.

" When I did this, my library showed all the music I have "purchased" from itunes but did not have the music that I downloaded a long time ago through itunes from my old CDs."
Correct.
" How can I get that music to show up in my library now on my new computer? "
Copy it from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
The sync is one way - computer to ipod.

Have latest version of iTunes installed and running. Also make sure you have internet access working and can access Apple websites. Also, make sure you don't have any entries in your hosts file referring to gs.apple.com....If your not sure about how to do that, go ahead and do the rest first. You can come back to that later.....Plug in phone. Put phone in DFU mode.(google put iphone in DFU mode for instructions) Then restore the phone in iTunes by highliting your device in the left column and click on the Restore button. The latest iOS version is 4.3.3. That's what iTunes will restore it to. When it's done restoring, iTunes will ask if you want to restore from a backup or setup as a new phone. I would use the Setup as a New Phone option. Once it's done, you should have a clean install of the iOS and an operating phone, as long as there are no hardware issues with it.
