ICLOUD activation lock !! help
My Iphone 4S is blocked about 3 Months on the page of iCloud activation lock, I can't remember it, all I know is my apple ID but it isn't the same unfortunately ( IOS 7.0.4), I need a solution as soon as possible, thanks in advance for ur help !!

Why can't the seller unlock it? Sounds like it may be a stolen iPad. As others have said do not buy it, it will be of no use to you while Activation Lock is in effect, and there is nothing apart from entering their Apple ID password that can bypass it.

HT201407 ipod 5th gen got gave to my and it is icloud activation lock HELP!!!!
is there a way to bypass this or anything
There is absolutely no way to bypass this.
You must have the original owner supply their Apple ID and password to unlock the iPhone. Until that happens, the iPhone will remain useless to you. -
My icloud activation lock is on my iphone, which requires an activation login to access the homescreen, but when i log in with the apple ID on the phone, it says the apple ID is not meant to unclock this iphone 5 ios 8.0.2. please help me solve this.
Yes the phone belongs to me. It was purchased from United Kingdom Vodafone to West Africa, i had to factory unlock to use any sim in it. so it belongs to me. I did the activation myself, now after updating my iphone to the latest update, it required a user id and password to activate the phone, but anytime i enter the details, it tells me the user Id is not correct but the password is correct..

IPhone Clean ENS, but iCloud Activation Lock?
Please somebody help me. I purchased an iPhone 5 with a clean ENS, however the iCloud Activation Lock is in effect? Should I return the phone or being that it is a clean ENS is there another way around it, because I know that while that lock is set I cannot use my new phone at all

I am going to assume this was bought second hand? Not from verizon but from an individual or online purchase?
Someone has locked the device, it cannot be used. The previous owner locked it due to loss or theft. They did not report the device to their carrier so naturally the id is clean.

If this was a one on one sale get the previous owner to remove the activation lock, if they refuse get your money back.
I cannot caution people enough on these so called purchases.
Good Luck -
Will an Apple Store service my iCloud Activation Locked iPhone 5c?
I was cheated on eBay by a seller who sold me an iCloud Activation Locked iPhone 5c. eBay and Paypal wouldn't help me. Today, I turned it on, and it wouldn't turn on. Also, it wouldn't charge. The iPhone is still under warranty. Will and Apple store fix it under warranty?
Apple Warranty is determined by the device. If the iPhone is reported clean to Apple, ie nothing illegal, then the Warranty is still valid. That said, when an iPhone does not function correctly, the Warranty could be void due to liquid exposure, etc. Make Appointment and take iPhone to Apple Store for help.

ipad stuck on activation screen. I bought iPad secondhand from ebay, tried to contact the owner and i have no success, please help!
If you can reach the original owner, then yes, it can be managed without them needing to physically have the device. Read about iCloud: Activation Lock and have the original owner follow the instructions here to remove the iPad from their iCloud account: iCloud: Remove your device from Find My iPhone

If a iPhone has iCloud activation lock can you still use it.
And also is there anyway to get rid of the lock.
ThanksIf the phone hasn't been activated, you cannot use it. The only way to get rid of the lock is to enter the original owner's Apple ID and password. If you are thinking about buying an Activation Locked phone, don't.

Eng hassan a moukahalIs this a used iPad?
With iOS 7 there’s no workaround.
They should have done this.

Need help with icloud activation lock please
hi firends
i have be dragged by apple for last 3 weeks or so i had purchased a device in new zealand with orignal proof of purchase submitted to apple icloud team and the best part is they re validate it with the pervious owner and got the same copy if purchase from them when i try to call them up they said they have submitted to the concern department for unlocking and yesterday i get an email saying they cant do it as the shop who sold in new zealand has bought it from USA and now they need the receipt from there to make it work where all legal check up was done and everything is crystal clear APPLE IS JUST HARASSING me for no reason this why people now do want to promote APPLE when a genuine case is presented to them with complete info from seller to buyer and all documents they not ready to unlock it. i highly request every one to please raise this type of concern and get this one voice to TIM COOK AND HIS TEAMthat why genuine person are being left behind where the same icloud can be unlocked by paying to hackers who help people like us to trust them more then APPLE.
I hope MR. TIM COOK read this and have a good look into helping genuine person who are stuck with this type of issues please.
thanks again guys for reading my sad story.
cheers
3horseHow the lock works is explained by Find My iPhone Activation Lock and Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner's account.
On YouTube you will find some videos helping bypassing the lock and get access to the contacts. With some luck you can contact the previous owner and force him to remove the iPhone from the devices list at icloud.com/find. -
Please help with my iPhone I bought from a pawn shop but have no contact with the previous owner so I cannot get past the icloud activation Please anyone help. it would mean a lot, I paid good money for this phone
Return it to the pawn shop and get your money back. The device is permanently locked and with the previous owner to unlock it you can never use it except as a paperweight.

<Personal Information Edited by Host>Apple will not help you. No one can help you except the person whose email is needed to override the antitheft feature Activation Lock. If you cannot contact that person the phone will never work for you.

Aye I got this 5c from a dads friends and the its icloud activation on it and i'm not sure how to get around it? I guess his sister bought it from some random dude and its locked I just wanted to know any ways to get around it if I can just reinstall the ios firmware would it do it or not? thank you
There’s no way for you to get around it; only Apple can bypass it, and they’ll only do so for the original owner(assuming they’re alive).
