ICloud Account blocked-HELP

Hi apple community.
I'd liked to ask you and that you help me with my situation.
I've borrowed my iPad to a kid and he added an icloud account:
[email protected]
He don't know/forgot the password and neither of us do.
I've registered the iStore with my personal email, since i never used icloud.
And apparently, he installed find my ipad too.
It was giving me a few days ago, log in to your icloud account.
I clicked cancel and it was keeping popping up.
So i tried to update(officially) to ios8 with iTunes.
It was a disaster, because in the inital configuration screen, it says "log in to your icloud account".
I've tried to reset his password, but i don't know the email associated with the icloud account "[email protected]", so i could ask him to log in to his email, to his mother/father email, etc.
So, i'm stuck in welcome screen.
Also, he must had put a "fake" birthday date, because on the security question, when i put "his" birthday date, it says wrong.
So, i'm basicly stuck.
Can  you help me with this.
Thanks;
David

    If it's still asking for the seller's Apple ID and password, then he most likely did not actually remove the iPhone from iCloud. If the problem persists, return the iPhone and get your money back. The seller can figure out the problem and resell the iPhone later.

  • I can't access my icloud account , please help

    I can't access my icloud Account, please help .

    How are you trying to access it? You can't access the iCloud website on Safari on an iPad, you have to sign in in Settings>iCloud and access the data through the relevant apps.
    Have you successfully set up an iCloud account? Can you log in at http://icloud.com on a computer? What operating system are you running on your iPad?
    Do you get an error message when you try to access it?
    You really need to post more data with a question like this, just 'I can't access' doesn't really allow for any sort of answer.

  • IPhone locked to a stranger's icloud account- please help I am not a thief

    I had bought iPhone 5 from AT&T the day it was released. After using it for a year and half, I decided to gift it to my dad. I completely wiped the phone to it's factory settings and shipped it to my dad. After my dad received the phone, he took it to a local store to get a new screen protector and a case. After he returned back home, he tried to use the phone but surprisingly the phone was in a lost mode with a message showing it is currently linked to an Apple ID d…[email protected]. Initially he thought the apple id that was showing on the phone belonged to me and asked me to remove it from the device. However, the problem was the apple id didn’t belong to me. I tried to contact the the email address and the phone number that was showing on the screen but they turned out to be bogus. My dad went back to the store but the owner of the store denied doing anything like that. I did some research on Google and came across this discussion where a person is also having the exact same “locked to a stranger’s apple id” issue. At this point, I am not sure if it was the store owner who locked my device or it is a bug in the iCloud system of which Apple is not aware of? I called Apple Support but the rep was kind of rude and just dismissed the case. Then I went to the Apple store with the proof of purchase and the original box but was turned back to Apple Support. The second rep whom I spoke with was professional and sounded helpful but it has been a week and haven't heard back from him yet.
    I guess Apple is finding difficulty trying to decide who the true owner of the phone is? Me who have the proof of purchase or the stranger who has provided bogus email address and phone number? Looks like Apple is not willing to help me at all. Is filing a case at small claim court the only option left for me?

    I respect your opinion but I don’t agree with it. In the real world, you don't have to involve the police if you simply loose your keys or if it gets stolen. There is nothing a police can do because the car is never stolen and is just sitting at the mall's parking lot all the time. Remember, only the keys were stolen. In my phone's case, the phone was never stolen however I do agree that it was in a vulnerable position when I did the factory reset and removed my icloud account from it. If a device is in such a position then anybody who has the physical access to the device can lock the device with their icloud account. And this is exactly what happend to my phone and this is exactly what I have been trying to explain to Apple Support. I understand they cannot just trust me and unlock the phone for me, but I expect them to tell me what's the next step for me to take. What document or proof do they need from me to show that I am the true owner? I can try and get the police involved even though the device is never stolen, but I first need to know which city police should I get involved- is it the Dallas Police, my home town police or the stranger’s home town police? The email address and the phone number shown on the locked screen are totally bogus and they don’t exist at all. I don’t even know where this stranger lives. Apple Support is simply ignoring me presuming that I am the thief and not trying to resolve the issue at all.

  • I can not unlink an iphone from an Apple ID which was not linked to an icloud account. Help!

    Okay so I bought a second hand iphone 4 for $20 so I could play music in my car (aftermarket USB hookup radio) so my 5s wasn't constantly sitting on the charger and frying the battery. So like any other normal person I reformatted the device to new so there was no information from the previous owner on it, but it was updated to 7.1.whatever-it-is-now and now it says it's linked to an Apple ID. I tried the www.icloud.com/find and it doesn't come up and I have no way to unlink the account from the phone. The previous owner gave me the Apple ID they used and it says "this Apple ID can not be used to unlock this iphone". Is there any way to unlink the iphone from the Apple ID without using icloud? Because I don't think the previous owner was using an icloud account before they got rid of the phone

    Well I don't think it's a coincidence that both emails start with a K lol but one of them ends with "@aol" and the one the phone asks for is "@m•••" so maybe it's possible they used a different email or changed the email while they had it activated

  • I have an Apple ID and downloaded Icloud control panel for PC.  EVERYTIME I try to sign in, I get message that says "Cannot Sign Up. This Apple ID is valid but is not an icloud account."  Help!!!!

    How the heck to I establish an ICloud account?  I've downloaded the Control Panel twice and still cannot get past sign-in.  I get a message that says that my Apple ID is valid but is not an ICloud account.  I thought my Apple ID was supposed to get me into Icloud to share streamed photos... doesn't it?   What do I do now?

    To use iCloud, you must first set it up on an iOS device or a Mac.

  • ICloud Account--Please Help

    I am trying to set up my iCloud on my PC. Everytime I go to log in it tells me that my AppleID have been verified but is not an iCloud account. How do I set it up as an iCloud account?

    You cannot create an iCloud account on a PC.  You can only create an iCloud account on an iOS device (running iOS 5 or higher) or a Mac (running OS X 10.7.2 or higher).
    After creating an iCloud account on an iOS device or Mac you can then use the account on your PC, but you can't create the account on your PC.

  • We recently moved and changed our email but I can't change the email on my iCloud account.  Help!

    We recently moved and changed our email but I can't change my iCloud email. Help!

    That is because the app you are attempting to update is not owned by your Apple ID. You will have to delete the app and re-purchase it with your own ID, or continue to use your cousin's password to update it.

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have to iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.

  • How do I change the "primary iCloud account" on my iMac?

    This issue has been bothering me for YEARS so I'd REALLY appreciate some help with this.
    I started my cloud syncing use with MobileMe several years ago.  At that time, I created an AppleID to purchase music on within iTunes and a 2nd AppleID to sync content using MobileMe between my iMac and iPhone. I used an old business name to for the account which was long and, since it's not longer a business, annoying to work with! 
    When the new iCloud service was launced and MobileMe shut down, I wanted to change the name of the MobileMe appleid to something shorter and more descriptive.  By this time, my husband and kids had iphones and a Mac lap top had been added to the mix, so I really wanted to update this account name to make it easier for everyone. 
    At that time, you could not rename your AppleID if it was previously a MobileMe account.  So rather than just keep the original account, I decided to create a THIRD AppleID with a name everyone could remember.  When I did that, something interesting happended on my iMac.  When I attempted to switch all of my syncing functions over the new iCloud account, I found that I could NOT.  I could only sync Mail & Notes, Contacts and Calendars between all the devices with this new account.  When I attempted to sync Bookmarks, Photo Stream, Find My Mac or iCloud Storage, I received the following message within my new iCloud account Mail set up area:   "This is not your primary iCloud account.  Only your primary account can use Bookmarks, Photo Stream, Find My Mac or iCloud Storage.  So as it turns out, I had to keep BOTH accounts open and am now paying for storage on TWO iCloud accounts!  Help!!
    Obviously, I would like to convert all syncing operations to my NEWER iCloud account and DELETE this old MobileMe account.  Apple has automatically updated the email address for this account to an "@icloud.com" address. 
    Any takers on this one??  I really appreciate anything you can share that might help!

    I activated an iPad for a work associate; somehow, MY Apple ID account is assigned to his iPad's iCloud backup.  His iPad is using up all MY iCloud space... he IS set up in App Store with his own Apple ID.
    On my own iPad (just to check out what settings/options were), i went to "Settings/iCloud: and tapped "Delete Acct".  BUT, then I got a message that all Photo Stream and documents stored in iCloud would be deleted from this iPad...   so, two questions...
    is there ANY way for him to retrieve the documents he saved in MY iCloud account (there's 9.1g worth of HIS backup in my account!! ... i purchased extra space before i realized it was being eaten up by him and not mine).
    Because he'd be logging  back in under his OWN ID which had never backed up his device before......so, he'll  lose everything, right?
    Really need someone who KNOWS apple iOS/Cloud workings to answer this one please ... much (at least some, lol) of his data is work-related.... at 9gig, can't be all work!! must be a lot of movies, photo's and music i'd guess.  as this is a WORK-issued device, so be it if he has to re-load all that................ 

  • How to enable Find my iPhone using non-primary iCloud account in iOS 7?

    Our business relied on this functionality to track our iPhones and iPads.  We had a separate MDM service so we can remotely manage/wipe devices, but finding the location is important to us.
    There are lots of articles on the Internet on how to set this up on iOS 6, how useful it is for businesses (and families), etc.  Why would Apple change this functionality?  They can still "protect" the feature by requiring a password to turn it off for the account, just like they do with the primary/main iCloud account.
    Help!

    Interesting. I haven't updated yet but I'd like to follow your progress on this issue.
    If an answer isn't found by the end of the day, I will do my own iOS7 update and do my own research. Good luck.

  • Changing email address on iCloud account

    My email was hacked a while ago, and I managed to change email addresses on most accounts I can't seem to change the address on my iCloud account, any help please?????!!!!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple,  Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
    If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.
