NO and NO.
The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required
If you do not have that information you will not be able to use the Device.
There is NO Workaround.

    If they sign into your iCloud account with your ID, their iCloud backup would then be in your account.   However, they would also be sharing your iCloud account and any data they sync with the account (contacts, calendars, etc.) will be merged with yours and the merged list will appear on both phones.  They would also be able to access your email account and their photo stream photos would be merged with yours (as you would be sharing the same photo stream).  Furthermore, if they are using iOS 7 and turn on Find My iPhone while signed into your account, their phone will require your iCloud ID and password in order to be turn off Find My iPhone, sign out of iCloud or erase and reactivate their phone.
    Unless you wish to share all this data, and have the other person's data merged with yours you should do this.  (iCloud accounts are really designed to be used by a single person.)

    Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs.<br />
    You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br />
    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.<br />

    No idea of what you mean, what information do you see like exact wording and punctuation that tells you that your PC is blocked. What does your PC do instead of work.

    A notification from iCloud has blocked my iphone 4S and I can't do anything, any advice?

    Don't know what "notification from iCloud" you mean and doubt it has to do with your "block," but try a reset by holding the home and power buttons at the same time until the Apple boot logo appears. No data will be lost.

  • I bought an iPhone 5 in Dubai as an unblocked phone. When I arrived in my country, I discovered that it was blocked. What can I do, as Dubai's store doesn't reply my messages?

    I bought an iPhone 5 in Dubai as an unlocked phone. When I arrived in my country, I discovered that it was blocked. What can I do, as Dubai's store doesn't reply my messages?

    When you say the iPhone was blocked, do you actually mean it is locked to a carrier, or do you really mean the iPhone is blocked from use?
    Thie is the second post from someone buying an iPhone in Dubai and then having problems with it and with support.
    If you cannot get the seller to respond, try contacting Apple support at the appropriate number from http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 and see if they have any help to offer.
    Warranties on iPhones are only valid in the country of sale so any support will really require returning to Dubai, or sending the iPhone to someone in Dubai to handle it for you...Apple will not accept shipments from another country.

    Sorry, there is nothing you can do until the device is removed from the sellers Apple ID.
    Without that, your device can't be used, check these articles:

    Without enabling Find My Phone you can't do a thing.
    What To Do If Your iDevice or Computer Is Lost Or Stolen
    iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad
    If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if it is connected to the Internet by Wi-Fi or cellular. What you cannot do is track your device using a serial number or other identifying number. You cannot expect Apple or anyone else to find your device for you. You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
    If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:
    This link, Re: Help! I misplaced / lost my iPhone 5 today morning in delta Chelsea hotel downtown an I am not able to track it. Please help!, has some good advice regarding your options when your iDevice is lost or stolen.

    If you enabled iCloud on your device and enabled Find My iPhone on the device, then you can view the iPhone or iPad location at www.icloud.com .  Use your iCloud login details and then click on Find my iPhone.
    If Find My iPhone was not enabled on your device or your device does not have an internet connection or has been turned off then there is nothing you can do to view the location and track your device.
    If your device has been stolen, report it stolen to your carrier and the police and change all your passwords.  This is what you do when you lose your phone or it is stolen support.apple.com/kb/ht5668

    I have one apple ID for both my Iphone 4S and Ipad. My Ipad was stolen from me and when I checked the iCloud, it can only locate the Iphone 4S. How can I locate the Ipad device?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can only locate your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
    Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely.
