If I buy a second hand ipad with a wireless service, can I use it as a wifi only device?

For instance, let's say I find a great deal n a used ipad, but it's attached to AT&T, but I have no interest in getting an AT&T plan.  Can it be used as a wifi only device?

Yes.

    Without the previous owner's Apple ID and Password, you will not be able to activate the iPad.

    Become familiar with how it works. Then try out some of the features. Examine it for damage or dents. Is it still under warranty?

  • Buying a second hand iPad 2. What should I look out for?

    Hi, I'm from the UK and I'm buying a second hand unlocked Ipad 2 (It wasnt bought unlocked), Is there anything in particular i should be wary of before buying. I'm buying this from a friend so i have the chance to physically look at it before buying? Its over a year old so, but can i still get some kind of apple care?
    Also i've read that iPads arent locked to specific networks? But my friend tells me he had to unlock it to use his GiffGaff simcard..
    Thanks in Advance

    I can't comment on the cellular. HOwever make sure that iPad isn't still linked to the original owner's apple ID or you'll buy a brick.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH13695
    explains what the activation lock is and if the original owner's Apple ID is still on there or they can't give it to you, then don't buy it. Because it can't be unlocked.

  • I buy a second hand ipad unopened  and no receipt

    I bought second hand ipad unopened  and no receipt .I'm afraid it is a ipad bought the insurance。do we have any way to fix it

    Try posting in your native language. It is difficult to understand what you are asking.
    It sounds like you are saying you bought a stolen or new never used iPad and you are now worried that the owner will claim it. Or you bought a stolen/new never used iPad and it is broken and you have no insurance to pay for fixing it.

  • I'm thinking about buying a second hand ipad online. Is it stolen?

    Hi!
    I'm new to ipads, so perhaps I can get this answered here!
    I am about to buy a 16gb ipad online. It is used, but has everything and is practically new. I'm always afraid of buying something that would turn out to be stolen. This only happens when I buy something online that's not in its original packaging, especially since every time I upgrade my gadgets, I sell them to Gazelle.
    I'm curious if there is a resource to put the serial number into a database, and see if it was stolen from a store or something. It's probably ok, however I would rather be on the safe side before I have the police breaking down my door because I sold a 200$ ipad to gazelle a year from now.
    Thanks!
    Note: Sorry for the double edit. I am told it was never used, and is refurbished. I know you can register an ipad and track it. I'm afraid someone steals it from a store, then sells it online or something.

  • Ipad to soundbar wireless - but can i use headphones without interrupting the wireless????

    hi guys.... im stuck on a problem
    i am connected via bluetooth to my soundbar using my ipad.. BUT... i want to connect my headphones to the ipad so i can DJ from the Djay2 app, it has split output in the Djay app so thats good but of course as soon as i put the headphones in the ipad to start mixing the headphone jack must over ride the bluetooth connectivity and it stops transmitting to the soundbar through bluetooth and the sound starts in the headphones.
    My question - can you play through bluetooth and have headphones in at the same time??? there must be a way??????

    iOS takes outputs: bluetooth devices, 3.5 mm jack, apple tv, ... as independent channels. You can only pick one at a time. You can connect your iDevice with a few bluetooth devices, you can only pick one device to output.

  • Buying a second hand iphone

    Hi All, I want to buy a second hand iphone as a gift. Can a apple store identify whether the phone has been dropped so that I can make sure it has not been damaged?

    I thought they had diagnostic test at the genius bar that can show a accelerometer log if there has been a fall.

  • I bought a second hand ipad mini without a simm chip. Can I buy one at the Verizon store and get a pre-paid plan?

    I bought a second hand ipad mini without a simm chip. Can I buy one at the Verizon store and get a pre-paid plan?

    IPad mini unless branded for Verizon use will not be accepted for prepaid use. Apple will tell you that the mini is compatable with all carriers, you simply walk into the carrier of choice and ask for a nano Sim.
    You pop it in, you turn on cellular if not already on and follow the screen prompts to get you up and running. Its quite easy.
    I found my wife's mini only functions on Sprint, T-Mobile and AT&T who I set up service with.
    Verizon blocks the activation due to the emeid of the device. Apple says it is fully operable on Verizon but they don't let you activate unless its purchased from them or from Apple to use on their system.
    Good Luck

  • ı have bought second hand ipad. 17 apps which were downloaded by previous user with his or her apple id. I need to update them but when I try, ı can't update them with my own apple id. Device ask me to update with the id and password of previous user.

    ı have bought second hand ipad. 17 apps which were downloaded by previous user with his or her apple id are waiting to be updated. I need to update them but when I try, ı can't update them with my own apple id. Device ask me to update with the id and password of previous user. I tried I forgot but this didn't work.  So how can ı have my device forget the previous ID and use my own to update exsisting apps.
    <Email Edited by Host>

    Restore the device to factory settings with iTunes. 
    Then launch the App Store app on the iPad and sign in with your Apple iD and password:

  • Second Hand iPad 4

    Hello Recently, I purchased a second hand iPad from eBay. Upon receiving it, the iCloud activation lock was in place. After contacting the seller, he told me that he had acquired the iPad and did not have the contact information of the first buyer. Can anyone tell me if there is a way to reset it or get the contact information for this person? On the screen, most of the email is blocked out with the black circles like a password. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Return it for a refund.  The seller sold you something you will not be able to use.  There is no way to get the ID or password if you can't contact the owner of the ID.  If the seller refuses, try contacting the eBay resolution center: http://resolutioncenter.ebay.com.
