IPhone asked me for the APPLE ID and pass

Hello friends, I bought a week ago iPhone 5S IMEI 013884000163883 broken on eBay
a Nice woman named Kate Benjamine sold her grandmother's iPhone after she died
I replaced battery and screen and it powers on after restore on iTunes
At the end of restore the iPhone asked me for the APPLE ID and pass
I contacted the seller and she tried to give me all sorts of names and passwords of her grandmother
For two days she gave me a lot of emails and passwords
She really spent a lot of time to help me
Question family and what not
She tried to reset password on Apple's site
But she was missing data
Now she asks what else to do
And I'm with her
She told me she wanted to help
Even in the face of Apple's representative
Please help in

You can't do anything, it's up to the person that sold it to you. You might pass on the following advice to the nice lady...
Contact AppleCare (or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
I'm not exactly sure what procedures are in place for such events but Apple can assist in such cases, but it may take a while and you may need to provide a death certificate and a note from the executor that the iPad has been willed to yourself.

you have to restore to ios 6 and then sign in with your own apple id,
any apps etc on the iphone now, will not be able to be backed up and used in the future as they are not linked to your apple ID. and if you plan on using the previous owners ID then you need there [*** which I assume you dont have.
simply just restore using itunes then setup as new with all your details and your done, you can go to the appstore and start getting your own apps

If you purchase an ipad and it is locked but asking for the apple id and password would you be able to use your own id and password to unlock it?

i am trying to purchase an ipad mini from a friend but it is locked. It is asking for the apple ID and password. Can i use my apple ID and password to unlock it?

The previous user needs to do this, or the iPad can't be used. If the person selling it is not the previous user, the iPad may be stolen.

Just to clarify, iOS is the operating system for iOS based devices such as the iPod touch, iPhone, and iPad.
Your Mac runs on OS X.

Click here and use Apple's iForgot service, or contact their Account Security team, or if you're the device's original owner, take it and its purchase receipt to a physical Apple Store.

If the Mac's firmware was updated, you can try this Internet Recovery:
Hold down Command + Option + R during restart or bootup; hold until you see a spinning globe (takes up to 10 minutes). Once in the Utilities window, use Disk utility to wipe the drive, then return to the window and choose to reinstall OS X. If that works, the OS will be installed without being tied to an Apple ID.
FWIW, if the firmware was updated, you will not be able to use the Snow leopard disk to install - I just did several tests and it does not work. You can, however, possibly install the SL onto an external drive and then clone it to the internal or (if you have a clone), boot from that and clone it back - I just tested that as well.
If the firmware was not updated, then you can use the SL install disk.

I recently changed my email address for the Apple Id and it was accepted but now when the App store comes up it still shows my old email address and no password will work. iCloud and Facetime are fine. Don't know why it stays there or how to alter it.

1. Sign out of old ID
2. Sign in with new ID

Why always asks to verify the Apple ID and can't install the app

Why always asks to verify the Apple ID and can't install the apps

Hello tgvgoffart,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with verifying your Apple ID. I recommend resending the verification email using these steps:
You can also resend the email verification if the email address is not verified:
Sign in to My Apple ID to manage your account information.
Click Resend under Primary Email Address.
Verify your changes by following the link in the email you receive from Apple, then signing back in to your account.

You will need to sign up for your own Apple ID and then buy and download Lion by calling Apple and getting a redemption code.
Good Luck

Unknown "source"? Do you mean unknown "error" followed by a number?

Follow the instructions in the article. When you connect your phone again, you may have to press both the home and sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo reappears, then continue pressing the home button until iTunes detects the phone in recovery mode.

Ok i have been trying to download albums, songs, apps, etc. and my itunes keeps asking me for the security question and for the life of me i cant remember the answers. I dont know what the email is that receives the question reset.

If you have music that was purchased on different iTunes accounts than the one you use, then you must provide the password, otherwise the tunes are not considered yours. You can turn off iCloud and just use the usual USB sync method. But I wonder whether you'll have the same problem?
