IPad keeps having pop-up to login into iCloud

I just started working on my new job today (yaay!) and got an iPad from the person I am replacing.
I booted the iPad and this annoying popup asks to login into iCloud keeps appearing. Her (person I am replacing) personal email is showing in the popup, but I need to fill in the password. Obviously I don't know the password. Haven't even ever met her. I just want to fully reset the iPad, when I manage to struggle my way to the annoying pop-ups to the Settings > General to reset the iPad, it asks for the iCloud password in order to be able to reset the iPad!
When I connect the iPad to my MacBook Pro and want to reset it from iTunes, iTunes on its turn prompts me to turn off Find my Phone on the iPad first. Ok, I try to do that... BUT IT ASKS FOR THE PASSWORD IN ORDER TO TURN THAT OFF!
How do I reset the iPad without it prompting for her iCloud password or how to I change the iCloud account into my account? THANKS!!

You cannot do anything with this iPad on your own. Only the person that is still logged into the iCloud ID on the iPad can erase it. Your employer should really know better and they should be responsible for making sure that the previous user erased the iPad and removed their ID/identity from it before they turned it in. They will have to get in touch with the ex-employee and have them erase the device.
This is part of the iOS 7 Activation lock security feature that Apple implemented last year. This explains what the last user has to do.

  • My iPad keeps bringing up the alerting in to iCloud, however it is not my i cloud account so i don't know the password and it won't let me delete the account.

    My iPad mini, iOS 8.2 continuously keeps bringing up the message sign into iCloud. However, the account it wants me to sign in to is not mine but my mums, and when i try to delete it it will not let me.

    You might need her to sign in to it and then sign out.

  • I have a iphone 5 and I can login with my apple id to purchase music. However, when I try to login into icloud using the very same username and password that I use in the apple store it does not work to enter icloud, so what what gives???

    I have a iphone 5 and I can login with my apple id to purchase music. However, when I try to login into icloud using the very same username and password that I use in the apple store it does not work to enter icloud, so what what gives???

    I could do that, however when I select the icloud button (or whatever the heck it is) I am asked to enter the apple id and password. So if you are suppose to create another one for icloud you'd think it would give you the option at this point which would be logical.

  • If icloud is not on my computer will that affect login into icloud through my iphone 4s

    the SIGN IN TO ICLOUD DIALOG BOX reappears after I enter my password. Additionally, icloud is not downloaded on to my computer. Why isn't icloud accepting my password ? How do I resolve this issue?

    Original Question:  if icloud is not on my computer will that affect
    login into icloud through my iphone 4s
    On my iphone, a dialog box appears asking for user login to icloud-- ENTER
    USER   "password".  After  I attempt to
    login  in to i-cloud the dialog box re-appears asking for AGAIN user
    password login and  will not remove from  main screen.
    ( Please continue reading and thank you for your response.) I received a response ques. asking, Are you trying to login to i-cloud? Yes, I was trying to login to         i-cloud in order to remove the dialog box which will not remove after each time, I entered the correct  i-cloud LOGIN USER "PASSWORD" requesting to be entered.
    My first thought was (my iphone does not have wifi connection) to connect to
    wifi because the user login is not connecting  permitting login to be
    accepted.  I selected cancel to bypass the dialog box asking for user
    Login password to icloud  in order to remove it from the home
    screen.    I attempt to go to wifi settings. The dialog
    box will re- appear preventing from SELECTING wifi settings because
    the dialog box does not give enough time to remove itself from main
    screen in order to  change wifi settings in which to allow wifi.
    Additionally, my thought it is the correct Login password being enter
    because when online at the icoud login page asking for username and password,
    both are accepted and allow access.
    Also, one thought to the issue, after opening iTunes it has stated that my
    icloud session has expired. My intentions at this moment are
    not to purchase a subscription to icloud at this time. Although i
    would like to access the account later on, if there wouldn't
    be conditional problems with iclouds at a later point in time, then there
    would not be any concerns deleting the icloud account in order to remove the
    icloud dialog box.  However, i would consider deleting acct as a last
    step.
    AS I TROUBLESHOOT THE ISSUE
    reasons for issue posted:
    iPHONE ISSUE -  the phone settings not set to sync phone with computer
    iPHONE ISSUE -  Needs to connect with internet
    ITUNES ISSUE-  THE ITunes settings not set correctly
    ICLOUD ISSUE-  SETTINGS NOT SET RIGHT OR 
    ACCOUNT IS  INVALID- NEED TO PAY FOR AN ACCOUNT
    ===================
    SO AFTER ATTEMPTING TO TROUBLESHOOT THE I -CLOUD  ISSUE ON THE PHONE
    1. THE PHONE SHOULD BE ACTIVE AND HAVE WIFI SERVICE.
    2.THE ICLOUD DIALOG BOX ASKING FOR ICLOUD USER LOGIN PASSWORD HAS TWO SELECTIONS. SHOWING "OK" BUTTON FOR ENTERING PASSWORD AND "CANCEL."   WIFI IS NEEDED TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE.YOU MUST BE QUICK TO BYPASS THE DIALOG BOX AND ATTEMPT TO SELECT THE WIFI CONNECTION IN ORDER TO PROCEED TO RESOLVE I-CLOUD ISSUE WITH DIALOG BOX RE-APPEARING.
    ADDITIONALLY, I SELECTED TO DELETE THE ACCOUNT. JUST BEFORE I CHANGED SETTINGS AND CONNECTED WITH WIFI.
    I AM NOT SURE IF THE CHANGES WENT THROUGH.
    ADDITIONALLY , ON MY IPHONE 4S, I WENT TO SETTINGS MENU AND SAW THAT MY DATA WAS NOT ON!!
    I TURNED IT ON
    ICLOUD ON MY IPHONE ASKED TO LOGIN WITH USERNAME ACCOUNT AND USERNAME PASSWORD. AND THEN ASKED IF I WANTED TO MERGE ACCOUNT INFORNMATION.
         I MYSELF, UNSURE OF THE OUTCOMES CHOSE NIETHER. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY RESPONSE UNDERSTANDING THE DIFFERENCE OF MERGING OR NOT MERGING ICLOUD ACCOUNT AND WAS IT A RESULT OF DELETEING THE OLD ICLOUD ACCOUNT.
    THE DIALOG BOX REMOVED ITSELF FROM THE MAIN SCREEN AND FROM MY UNDERSTAND ACCEPTED THE USERNAME PASSWORD WHEN I LOGGED IN AND UPDATED THE FILE,  AS A RESULT FROM THE START, WAS CHANGED DUE TO FORGETTIG THE OLD PASSWORD.
    AFTER TROUBLESHOOTING MYSELF, I LEARNED THAT YOU NEED WIFI   IN ORDER FOR THE CONNECTION TO GO THROUGH IN WHICH IS NEED FOR THE DEVICE TO COMMUNICATE. AND YOUR DATA ON YOUR PHONE SETTING SHOULD BE ON IN ORDER TO ALLOW WIFI CONNECTION TO BE ENABLED.
    IF MY UNDERSTANDING IS CORRECT, THOSE CHANGES SHOULD BE IMPLEMENTED IN WHICH TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE OF THE DIALOG BOX FROM RE-APPEARING ON THE MAIN SCREEN.
    I WISH THERE WAS MORE HELP INVOLVED IN RESOLVING  THESE TECHNICAL ISSUES. I AM SERVING IN THE MILITARY OVERSEAS AND AS CALLED FOR TECHNICAL HELP, I WAS USING A PHONE CARD WITH A LIMITED AMOUNT OF MINUTES. MOST OF MY TIME WAS SPENT ON WAITING FOR ASSISTANCE AND STATING INFORMATION THAT SHOULD OF BEEN ASKED DURING THE WAIT PERIOD TO EXPEDITE THE PROCESS AND TIME WAS SPENT REPEATING INFORMATION WHICH HINDERED MY TIME TO RESOLVE ANY ISSUES.
    Thank you for the one response for assistance. I just wish  there had been more response for help.
    Additionally, for those whom use forums, your posts should be clear and concise, to the point, and I CAN NOT SAY THIS ENOUGH, EXPRESSED WITH A COMPLETE THOUGHT IN ORDER TO PREVENT AND AVIOD CONFUSION. MOREOVER, I SEE ALOT OF  EXPRESSED THOUGHTS THAT DON'T MAKE SENSE , APPEARING AS IF WHAT IS BEING POSTED ARE NOT BEING REVIEWED BEFORE THEY ARE POSTED.   I WOULD HOPE OTHERS READ THIS POST AND USE IT AS AN EXAMPLE ON HOW TO EXPRESS A POINT WHETHER IT BEING A COMMENT, QUESTION OR, WHEN ATTEMPTING TO EXPRESS HOW TO ACCOMPLISH A STEP BY STEP TASK , TO AVIOD ASSUMPTIONS. AGAIN, COMPLETE THOUGHTS ARE REQUIRED.

  • My iPad keeps freezing!  Any idea why?  iCloud storage is completely 100% available.

    My iPad keeps freezing.  iCloud storage is completely empty.  I have 2.3 GB available of the total 13.6.  Please help!!  This is starting to become a pain in my butt.

    With iOS 7 it is recommended that you have 15-20% of the storage space on the device free.  For a 16 GB device that is 2.4-3.2 GB free. I suggest that you delete some stuff to allow for more free space on your iPad. It will run better.

  • I can't login into iCloud on my Mac

    Hello,
    Yesterday I've decided to change my Apple ID to a new email address, so I did it. I updated on my iPhone 4 and iPad 2 with no problems. When I changed on my Mac OS X 10.7.3 I received an error saying that I couldn't start my session on iCloud and asks me to try again. I've already changed my password, restarted my Mac, updated my system and still the same. Funny thing is I can login at iCloud.com and iTunes Store.

    Please, I would like suggestions for my problem. Thanks.

  • Why does my Safari browser keep having pop-ups and new windows open without permission?

    Whenever I click on a button to go to another page or something, a new tab with a new website opens up. When I search on Google, there are all kinds of ads and pop-ups on there. I really know nothing about Internet security, so I do not know what is wrong.

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
    You may have installed the "VSearch" trojan. Remove it as follows.
    Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. These instructions are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Step 1
    From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot," "Trovi," or "Conduit" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
    Reset the home page and default search engine in all the browsers, if it was changed.
    Step 2
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "com.vsearch.agent.plist" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
    Repeat with each of these lines:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/Jack.plist
    Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
    /Library/Application Support/VSearch
    /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/Jack
    /System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ConduitNPAPIPlugin.plugin
    Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
    The problem may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
    This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow.
    You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the Internet criminal behind VSearch has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

    Because you need WIndows 7 or later
    iCloud requires iOS 5 or later on iPhone 3GS or later, iPod touch (3rd generation or later), iPad, or iPad mini; a Mac computer with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later; or a PC with Windows 7 or Windows 8 (Outlook 2007 or later or an up-to-date browser is required for accessing email, contacts, and calendars). Some features require iOS 7 and OS X Mavericks. Some features require a Wi-Fi connection. Some features are not available in all countries. Access to some services is limited to 10 devices.
