What is activation locked means regarding icloud? im selling my iphone 4s online and i have a buyer that is asking me to reset my icloud so he would have no problem with it when he buy it.

im selling my phone online and i have a buyer that is asking me if the phone is not activation locked? and if im the first owner of the phone? and if he activate it will he be able to update it and will the phone work?
i answered him that i never used my icloud cos the fact that icloud gives only 5gb free storage. im not gonna be able to sync all my data. and i told him that i reset the phone like its new. and i never updated it on iOS7 when i was using it.
is he going to have a problem activating the phone? isnt it when you reset the phone youre pretty much have like a new device nothing is installed nothing is logged in? sorry for the ignorance.

Follow these instructions before selling your phone to avoid any problems:

Then confirm to the buyer that you have done all that. He/she will be safe in the knowledge that the phone is wiped and not locked or anything else.

    You reset the iClould password the same way you reset the Apple ID for the email address/account
    How do I change or recover a forgotten Apple ID Password?
    If you've forgotten your Apple ID Password or want to change it, go to My Apple ID and follow the instructions. SeeChanging your Apple ID password if you'd like more information.

  • Problems with navigation when deploy application on WebLogic 10.3

    Hi! I have problems with navigation when I deploy my application on Weblogic server 10.3. In my application I have two pages. One page where I can see the records. In this page I have button Create with action to secound jspx page. When I press this button then the first form (where I could see all records) is empty - the create operation worked, but navigation to second page not. Navigation rules is in adf task flow. In default server all works correct. Where is the problem?
    Maybe when I deploy my application I need specialy deploy adf task flow or somewhere write something? If so, then can you explain me where? Any suggestions what to do.
    Best regards!

  • My iWork (pages and keynote) are not communicating with the iCloud. I haven't changed anything and all of the sudden there is no sync happening.  My iCloud account is fine as i can create documents on my iPad and they appear on iCloud.

    my iWork (pages and keynote) are not communicating with the iCloud. I haven't changed anything and all of the sudden there is no sync happening.  My iCloud account is fine as i can create documents on my iPad and they appear on iCloud. However, when i change documents on my mac (documents that are supposed to be in the iCloud), the changes do not sync with my other devices nor with iCloud.  Even when i create new documents on my mac and save them to iCloud, all seems okay and i can access them from my mac, however they do not show up in the iCloud and i can't access them with my other devices.
    Most recent version of mountain lion updated over a month ago.  New iPad in use for over a month.
    thanks

    The same thing is happening to me, Mail was fine about an hour ago and now is rejecting correct password.  Typical when today I'm waiting some important emails!

    I have an iPad that will not allow me to accept iCloud terms and conditions. It just says server not available. But on an annoyingly regular basis a pop up asks me to accept term and cond, I go to iCloud and try to but that is when it tells me it cannot connect to the server. Frustrating as I cannot get rid of the pop ups.

    Thanks champion! Apple support is useless! Way too difficult to get anywhere with their "support"

When I make the page full screen and move my cursor to the top of the page, the bar drops down and I can use it. I've tried restarting my computer, didn't work. Help!

    Well I figured it out, right click the arrow that makes the screen bigger and unclick the Hide Toolbar. I knew it couldn't be that hard.

  • Having a problem with dates when I send my numbers doc to excel. dates are all out and that they have to cut and paste individual entries onto their spreadsheet. Any idea how I can prevent this

    having a problem with dates when I send my numbers doc to excel. dates are all out and that they have to cut and paste individual entries onto their spreadsheet. Any idea how I can prevent this.
    I'm using Lion on an MBP and Numbers is the latest version

    May you give more details about what is wrong with your dates ?
    M…oSoft products aren't allowed on my machines but I use LibreOffice which is a clone of Office.
    When I export from Numbers to Excel and open the result with LibreOffice, the dates are correctly treated.
    To be precise, dates after 01/01/1904 are correctly treated. dates before 01/01/1904 are exported as strings but, as it's flagged during the export process, it's not surprising.

    Some progess I see. To be honest, i would not waste your time with trying to connect using wireless.
    You are likely to get poor connections and dropping out.
    If its working using a cable, then there is no need to bother with giving me the network settings, bu see how it goes, because sometimes giving the TV a static IP address can give better results.
    There is an example of a couple of powerline adapters on the diagram below. Just ignore the network switch unless you want to connect other devices which are near to the TV.
