I have bought an used Iphone 5. I dont have the password for the existing login id of the old owner. How do i use the phone and change the log in id?
Unfortunatly the only way that you can get it off is to get the old user to input the password. You may need to contact that old user and see if he can put the old password in. hope this helps.

I have bought an used Iphone from a shop. then i put my account id in it. then it goes perfectly. After awhile i have done a reset all data and sitting then i could not get the Iphone started because it have been asked to put another email starting with u
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.

I have bought a used iPhone 4S now I can't access to iCloud account it shows an apple error 403 what to do
I like to use the iCloud facility in my iPhonehttp://support.apple.com/kb/PH13695
Contact whoever you got it from. If they can't or won't remove the lock, get your money back. If they won't do that, or you can't contact them, turn it over to the police. It's probably stolen.
There is no way to bypass the activation lock. -
My iPhone 4s was stolen almost a week ago now. If I can still see the phone listed in Find My iPhone but appears to be turned off does this mean the theif has not restored it to factory settings???
Are you sure? I have other devices at home. The only way I can make them disappear on the tracking list is by turning off location or resetting to factory settings.
I just want to make sure I'm not tracking a phantom that I will never recover :-( -
Heeeelp!!!!!!
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.

I have the ipod touch newest edition and downloaded ios8 on it yesterday. It worked great no issues all day and today. twenty minutes ago i was in my car listening to music played fine. Got home and put my ipod in my purse. When i got back in the house. My ipod wont turn on. the home button wont do anything the unlock button either. my ipod was charged and i have tried plugging it into the outlet and computer and it just wont do anything!? Is any one else having this issue? or what am i doing wrong?
Hi kdbenton,
If your iPod touch will not power on, I would suggest that you try to restart using the steps in this article -
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
Should it remain unresponsive, troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Compressor will not import any file. Anybody have an idea? It was working fine 2 weeks ago.
Compressor will not let me import any type of file. I can not export a sequence from Final Cut through Compressor either. Anyone else have this problem or have a soulution. It was working 2 weeks ago.
.. but my history window does not fuction.
It makes sense that past history is gone as it is blown out as part of the compressor repair process.
Or, do you mean Compressor does not keep track of current projects added to the que (aka history)?

I have brought some movies and they just come up with this message that says it cannot be played on this iPod. I've bought movies before without iTunes Extras but these have iTunes extras and they don't want to sync with my iPod
Does anyone know what is wrong?Sounds like you are trying to sync the HD version of the video. You should try to download the Standard Definition copy instead and sync that to your device as HD content is only compatible with the 4G iPod Touch. See here for more information:
iTunes: May be unable to transfer videos to iPhone, iPad, or iPod
To prevent HD versions from being downloaded in the future head to the iTunes Store, click the Purchased link, and then select TV Shows and remove the tick mark next to Download HD when available. You should be able to download the SD version now from under this same page.

I downloaded the latest operating system for my iPhone 5. It worked fine for about two minutes then the phone requested a password number to continue. Each time I inserted numbers, which were incorrect, the phone would lock up for a certain period of time. Now, it says “iPhone is Disabled”. It said to “Connect to iTunes” which I did, but iTunes does not recognize my phone. If I scroll the face to the right, it goes to the phone number face and says, "No Service". Can I do something to make the phone work?
Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or ...

HT201401 can i make calls while the phone is locked???
can i make a call while the home screen is locked?
And that is only if you set it up for Siri to work under the lock screen. In Settings, if you have a Passcode lock on and have Siri turned off for use when the phone is locked, you cannot use it. Just an observation.

I opened iTunes and the cloud is not syncing up, so i cannot watch movies or tv shows over the cloud through itunes, however it was there a few days ago, now randomly gone.
Are you sure you bought and not rented them? Renting lets you to access the video for up to 48 hours.

I just bought my first Iphone the 5S and when I turn on my bluetooth the ringtone for my text, calendar, etc. comes through my Bluetooth instead of the phone. Is there a way to have the tones use the phone while bluetooth is on?
I would also like this issue addressed.
I am using a Plantronics Voyager Pro+ and when it is connected to my iPhone 4, email and text sounds are not audible through the phone. The phone just vibrates when a new text or email is received.
I don't really care if it plays through the headset, but it should at least play through the phone. I tested the headset from a BlackBerry and the alerts play fine.

I bought a used iphone can someone tell me how to change the apple id on phone please. Thank You!
I bought a used iphone yesterday and it has a apple id on it and I need to know how to change that apple id over to my id. I do not have the password for the previous owner. Can someone please help me with this? Thank you!
Removing data is all or none, and "forgetting" to do so before selling your phone is no "small thing" - it's like selling your purse with your wallet and credit cards still inside.
So I am afraid you were not very helpful!
Every day there are posts from people with obviosly found or stolen iPhones who mysteriouly "forget" their passcode (or forget to obtian it from the prior owner) and who somehow don't have access to the computer the phone was synced with, looking for help to gain access to the phone. I'm not interested in helping others boost iPhones.
