I just got iphone5 from a collegue , he has quit my company and his id is locked, i am unable to clear the iphone and use it

hi , i just got a iphone 5 from a collegue who has resigned from cmpany, i have his id ( which is also his offical id ) and password which he has forgotten, i need to restore the iphone but i caant do as i dont know his icloud id

You will never be able to activate that phone without the proper credentials. Ask him to reset his Apple ID password as he has forgotten it. After he does that, you will need to turn off Find my iPhone on the phone before you restore it.
He can reset the Apple ID password here:

  • Just got a new macbook pro, it has a password, did not choose any password yet, so how can i get the password back ?

    I just got my MBP, it is a new one. and just found out that my mac has a password. when i tried to instal a new app, it asked me to enter the password.
    what should i do? any help

    But if you bought a new Mac, did someone already run the initial setup procedure for you?  Ordinarily, with a brand new, out of the box Apple computer, at first boot you would have been taken through a series of setup screens, one of which would have had you create an admin account with an admin password.
    If somebody else already did that when you picked it up, then you should call the store and ask them for the password as they must have set it.  Then, immediately change it to something you make up.
    If you did not have the store set it up, then I'd suspect you did not actually get a brand new Mac?

  • HT1296 All my photos from my computer were copied over to my phone and I don't know how to delete them from my phone.  Has anyone had this problem who might now how to fix it without restoring the iphone or resetting it to the original settings?

    All the photos from my computer were transferred to my iphone.  I don't know what I did to make that happen and I can't even delete them from my phone.  I had to reset and restore my phone to original settings and lost all my iphone photos and contacts and messeges.  Has this happened to anyone who might know how to fix this or next time I sync my iphone to prevent the photos from my computer from downloading onto my phone?

    You delete them the same way you put them there.  The sync process.  Open itunes, connect iphone, select what you want on the iphone, sync

  • Just got back from the Apple Store...optical drive officially dead

    I just got back from the Apple Store, which confirmed what I feared all along. I received my MBP C2D over the holidays and was worried when it had trouble booting up several times. After trying to burn a few cds (some would quit, others worked fine), and a few discs that refused to read or eject I visited the boards to find out that issues with the Matshita UJ 587 were widespread. At this point my computer does not even recognize the ATA or Disc Burning hardware or the OSX disc inside. The only positive to come out of this is the customer service offered by Apple. I took the computer to the genius bar and the computer refused to boot up after the tech installed an OSX disc (hence the stuck cd inside). They are giving me a new computer since this one is brand new, but unfortunately I will have to order it from Apple Care since it is a custom job. For all of you out there with early MBP C2D optical drives that are acting up I feel your pain. Get your computer into an Apple store before the problem gets worse, these optical drives are awful.
    Macbook Pro Core 2 Duo 2.33 Ghz   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Thank you. After 2 hours on the phone with Apple Care this morning they finally confirmed what the Mac Genius told me last night. The computer was shipped back this afternoon and I'll post again if there's any trouble with the new unit, I think I just got a lemon with this one...too bad. This is my first Mac so I'm really trying hard to stay positive.

  • Just got back from buying the iPhone

    Just got back from the Apple Store, and finally got the 8 GB iPhone. I've heard the stories, read the discussion boards, but I love Apple products so I'm making the shift. I put the clear protector that I bought a few weeks back on before I even touched the screen (great product). I have a Vaja case on its way, should be here Thursday so I think I will wait to activate it until then (should be fun looking at the iPhone on my desk every day not being able to use it).
    I'm going to be syncing to 2 computers like a lot of other people I have read. My Outlook 2007 from XP for my contacts & calendar and my PowerBook for my music, movies, and media.
    I'm switching wireless carriers, also, so those of you actually HAPPY with their iPhone, that's what I need to be hearing right now. Sorry for the post, just excited to finally get this thing!

    Don't worry about... I was a bit "perturbed" about his comment.. but then I thought "Why fuel the fire?"... Everyone has dreams, and if his dream is to one day be a MOD on these forums, then I firgured that's why he comments the way he does..;)

  • Just got back from iraq.....sound isnt workin on my computer

    hey i recently just got back from iraq and while unpacking all my computer stuff from storage i went to turn my computer on and i dont have any sound, now i am somewhat knowledgable with computers and i've tried everything i can think of (uninstalling my soundblaser, uninstalling the on board sound , removing the soundblaster, and completly taking apart my whole computer. when i went to put everythng 2gether the computer read taht i had the soundcard and it went straight to the installing screen but when i started to install the driver half way through i got a warning message saying that the soundcard was not detected. in the device manager i keep getting the conflicting icon for the onboard sound. o yea the only sounds i get are from the computer itself. someone please help thanks.
    ted v.

    Have you uninstalled all old drivers? Check that the card is inserted 00% in the pci slot? Change Pci slot? Update bios, and chipset drivers. Maybe if nothing else helps, try re-installing Windows or the OS you are using!! Hope something hel

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    You need to use the Apple IDs that you created for them for iCloud as well as iTunes. You will also find that you need to use them for messages and face time.

  • Just got an iphone 4 from my dad and its his old iphone and i was gonna delete his account so i can put my account on the iphone but he does not remember the  password so I couldnt delete it. I need help deleting it without a password

    just got an iphone 4 from my dad and its his old iphone and i was gonna delete his account so i can put my account on the iphone but he does not remember the  password so I couldnt delete it. I need help deleting it without a password.

    If the iPad has Activation Lock - that is, it's asking for the previous owner's Apple ID and password to activate the device or to turn off Find My iPhone - then you will need that information. There's no way around it If your father can't remember the password, he'll need to recover it.
    http://iforgot.apple.com
    If he can't do it via that page, then he'll have to call Apple Support and ask to speak with Account Security.
    If that's not the "password" you meant, please post back and clarify.
    Regards.

  • Just got back from Paris and Israel and this update got my iphone 5 in recovery mode !!! please somebody tell me that I did not loose all my pics and videos !!!

    Please somebody help me !!!! I just got back from Paris and Israel and this update got my iphone 5 in recovery mode. I can't loose all my pics and videos from my vacations ??????????????????????????????????

    NOO it's not broken it is a software error. What you need to do is put your phone into what is called DFU mode or Device Firmware Upgrade Mode. What you have to do is connect your phone to itunes but do not start the sync process. Ignore any popups from itunes initially. When you are connected to itunes take your phone and hold down the home button and power button at the same time. Hold them down for about 30 seconds or so and you should see your device screen rollover to the black screen and disconnect from itunes once this happens it will reboot and automatically connect to iTunes, after this happens start the restore process through itunes and it should continue past the error message.
    * Also before you do this try ejecting your sim card if you have the at&t model if you are on Verizon ignore this. There is a small oval port on the right side of the phone with a small pinhole. Use a paperclip and insert it into the hole, the door will pop open. Take the door out, remove the sim card and wait 5 minutes then return the sim card back into the phone and begin the above process.
    If none of this works you may just want to bring it the genius bar and have them look at it. Good Luck and I hope this helps!

  • I just got home from the Apple Store getting my iphone 4S fixed. I now have "Invalid Sim". Can someone please tell me what to do?

    What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>Carrier?
    Did it work with that sim in the Apple Store?

  • I just got home from the Mac store where I was told I needed a new battery.  The charger cord is fluctuating betwee steady green and a light blinking green.  The problem is the icon read 31% charged.  I thought if the light was green it was a all charged.

    I just got home from the Apple store where I was told I need a new battery.  The new battery is in, The charger light is bright green the icon reads 28%, and has flashed not charging a few times.  I thought the green light meant the battery was charged?  In fact the percentage is decreaciingand now the light is a light green flicker.  Is something else wrong?

    The Apple store already told you what was wrong.

    Have you copied your content over from your old computer and onto the new on ? If not, and you still have your old computer, then there a number of methods described on this page which you can use to copy your library over : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 . If you no longer have your old computer then have you got a backup of your content that you can copy onto the new computer and add into iTunes ?

    hello my iphone 3gs just been stolen how can i block the iphone and how could i track it i don't know for sure if i have find my iphone? please help i got many accounts on it and i don't have a passcode :((

    It was never free for the 3GS.
    It is if the initial sign-up is done on an iPhone 4, iPad or iPod touch 4th gen.
    From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4436:
    After I sign up for Find My iPhone for free, can I use it on other iOS devices?
    Yes, if your devices are running iOS 4.2. For example, you can sign up for Find My iPhone for free on your iPad and use the same account information to sign in to MobileMe on your iPhone 3GS and turn on Find My iPhone.

  • Can you transfer hd video directly from an ipod and then EDIT that video in imovie? I will be on the road and wont have a mac, just an ipad 2 and ipod touch. I want to shoot video on the touch and edit it on the ipad. Thanks!

    Thanks Tgara.
    Its funny. So far the responses have been 50/50 on this question. I even asked two seperate Apple Store employees here in NYC, and got two different answers! One said yes, the other no.
    Argh!
    I know from watching the keynote speech about icloud and iOS 5 that you will be able to cut the cord between the pc and ios devices like the ipad. No more need to sync them via a cord. So will that mean i would then be able to load video directly to the ipad via tha cam kit connector from my ipod? Also i wonder if/when Apple will allow HD video from on Apple devices like a canon dslr to be able to transfer to the ipad via the cam kit connector AND be able to EDIT that footage in imovie for the ipad. Speaking of imovie for the ipad...i hope it gets an update soon as well.
    Anyway....with the macbook airs getting updated next week with thunderbolt and new sandy bridge chips....i may just get one of them instead of the ipad 2 for editing video on the road. Still...i prefer surfing the web experience on the ipad. Grrrrrrr. **** youuuuuuu Apple!!! Lol
