Place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore via iTunes on the computer. For recovery mode see:

You're right - that link goes to a dead-end (sorry OP ).
Looks like it's all down to the paid for one now, although you can use it in demo mode for 14 days:

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 iphone 4s second hand, and im having trouble activating it.

so i bought an iPhone 4s second hand, and I'm having trouble activating the phone, its linked to the persons apple id and
its asking for the person to sign in and i no longer have contact with him.
I went to a Verizon store, and they said that i myself can do it at home by connecting the phone to iTunes, but i don't
know what or how to do that, please help.

Sorry, but the iPhone is of no use to you until/unless the prior owner removes it from their iCloud account.

Hi all just bought an ipad second hand how do i change the main id

hi all i have just bought a second hand ipad but when i go on itunes it ask for the password of the last owner

You need to reset it to factory settings : Settings > General > Reset > Erase all Content And Settings. Content is not transferable between users, you have to buy/download your content for it.

HT3910 Hi, I'm trying to create a new account because I have bought an iMac second hand and the previous user doesn't remember his admin account password. Would someone advise me on what command prompts I need to write in order to create a new account. Th

Hi,
Just wondering how I can create a new account and password?
I've bought a second hand iMac from a dealer who hasn't fully erased the previous owner's user name and password. Therefore , I can't update or install any new password or update to Mountain Lion...
There is also no installation disc, so I don't seem to be able to reset the password that way.
I've just gone into the dos text :/root and wondered what I can do to create a new account and password without having to reinstall Snow Leopard?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Steve

Follow the steps in this article. Be sure to enter the commands exactly as written, paying attention to case and spaces, or lack thereof.

Sorry, but you can't use that iPhone. The activation lock is an anti-theft measure; Apple won't unlock that device for you.

I bought an iPad second hand and can't download. .

I am signed in to my apple ID. But the person who i bought the ipad from is also. I signed her out but she continues to pop up. I purchased an app card today, and am trying to download Minecraft for my son, but it started a whirlwind.....
I have to verify my information to be able to make purchases on this new device.
IVe forgotten the answer to my questions, as it had been so long since I had used them.
Now I am locked out from making changes and my recovery email is my email address from eons ago. It is a hotmail account which I also cannot access.
I need to reset my recovery email address. Or I need to know the answers to my security questions. Help!

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

Basically, i bought a new iphone becasue my old one broke off a friend, and he had jailbreaked it, but he said he had removed this. Becasue i am lazy i tried to remove all his stuff on it uisng the clear iphone on settings and it crashed. i tried to restore it using what i was told by itunes with restoring the software, but it says there is error 1015 and i cant now get on it becasue it freezes when i turn it on, is there anything i can do to make it work normally, and will apple fix it for me if it doesnt work becasue the jailbreaking software has been removed?
cheers

You're witnessing first had what jailbreaking can do to a phone--it turns it into a brick that can never be fixed.
Not only does jailbreaking void any remaining warranty with Apple, but it forfeits your ability to any support from Apple including from this forum. Discussion of jailbroken phones is strictly prohibited by the Terms of Use of this forum.
If you really purchased this from a "friend", your friend should refund your money and that phone is permanently hosed.

I bought my iphone second hand and when i tried to activate it it siad i had to use the previous account

please help !!

With iOS 7 activation lock, you need to know the previous owners AppleID password, or have them remove the device from their iCloud account. Otherwise, you will never be able to use that device.
So get in touch with the previous owner as otherwise, you now own a brick.

Hi there, I bought a second hand Imac, there is still the previous user. How to configure it right?

I guess I did anything wrong, whatever one can do if you are new to Mac's. I have no idea how to setup the Mac properly. I tried but still remains the former user.

You need the install discs that originally came with the iMac to reformat the drive.
You can get replacement System Install & Restore CD/DVDs from Apple's Customer Support - in the US, (800) 767-2775 - for a nominal S&H fee. You'll need to have the model and/or serial number of your Mac available.

I just bought ipod 5 on ebay and the seller did not know passcode can the apple store fix this problem

i just bought a ipod on ebay and seller does not know passcode if i go to the apple store can they fix my problem?

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
The previous owner still has to remove the device from their account in order for you to activate the iPod.
