Activate used Iphone 5 c once it has unlocked?

Hello

My sister-in-law gave me his old Iphone 5 C.  It has been unlocked by the carrier (ATT) and it has also been deleted out of his "find my Iphone".  I always get a message: "this phone has been lost and deleted. Enter the Apple ID and password that were used to put in place this Iphone."

My question is: what are the next steps to get this Iphone unlocked from Apple?  I can get my sister in law to enter his information if it is not a problem.  I just want to know what are the final steps to completely get this Iphone to work?

Thank you

Restart the phone if you don't have yet done.

    You must obtain cellular service from a local supplier who will provide the SIM card. Note that if the device is locked otherwise you may not be not able to use it at all.

    It requires the Apple ID and password from the previous owner. If you don't have it and can't get it, then the device is useless to you. Return it for a refund, if you can, or take it to an Apple store for an Exchange, I hope they will help you.

  • Is there a way we can use Acrobat Standard to assign a password for opening of the signed PDF file once it has been downloaded from DocuSign?

    Before execution of DocuSign, we have used to digitize a manually signed document to a PDF file, and then store the PDF file in a file of human resources share.  We would then use Adobe Writer Standard to assign a password to read/write to the PDF file.  Now, we use DocuSign to have electronically signed documents and download the PDF of the DocuSign in our files of human resources.  However Adobe Acrobat Writer we cannot assign a password.  It appears a dialog box saying "' you cannot change security on this document because the document is signed or certified".  We want to continue to be able to store the PDF file in our file sharing HR to restrict who can see off on the part of the passwords.  Is there a way we can assign a password for the PDF file once it has been downloaded from DocuSign?

    You can use the Adobe PDF printer to print PDF signed to unsigned PDF and then encrypt the result.

  • I bought a used iPhone 4S and erased and the previous owner had his account iCloud out of it, but I can't yet to complete the set up because he says sim card is not supported?

    I bought a used iPhone 4s to a friend of mine, and they took their offshore and all iCloud account as they were supposed too. It still won't let me complete the set up it says that my card SIM of Fido is not supported, but the last time I saw the information of the carrier when the person that I bought the phone he said 15.5 Fido I think. Do I need to phone apple or what I call fido and to somehow cope? I myself remember having to change devices when using a fido handset represent the last I checked, and I'd love to have this figured out without having to pay more money. Help lol

    The error you see on the SIM not supported is indicative of the device being locked to another carrier SIM card that you provide to. I suggest you check that with your friend and see if this device has been locked to another carrier. Could be called Apple, but all they could do was tell you what carrier of the device is locked to Apple do not unlock phones. Once find you the carrier, you need to contact and see if provide unlocking services, and if they do, see if you qualify to unlock. Once again, your best first call is to the friend you bought it from.

  • Why should I activate my iPhone whenever I change the SIM card?

    Is there a way to stop this requirement without disabling find my iPhone? I have several SIM cards that I use in the different counties and it is really annoying when my phone asking me to activate using my Apple ID and an internet connection whenever I change my sim card. Is there a way to stop it?

    Thank you

    This should not happen (AFAIK). I use several SIMs when they travel, and it never happened to me. What iOS you run and if it is always passed or there started recently?

  • iPhone 5 unusable once 9.3.2 update - Apple says that 'buy new '.

    I have updated the iPhone to my daughter 5 9.3.1 to 9.3.2 using the cable of the lightning to Mac/iTunes method with the full downloaded update.

    The update failed on several occasions ("error (50)") so I chose the option to restore the phone. The restore option also missed several times the phone is not usable or recoverable available for me somehow. He starts by asking to be connected to iTunes, but does not restore when I try it.

    My wife took the phone today at the local Apple Store and after verification they said the cost of repairs could be prohibitively expensive and it might be better to buy a new phone. Cheaper iPhone is currently $679 and has only 16GB so this 5 a 64 GB iPhone.

    My question is - is there any responsibility on Apple when an iPhone (even a former) works perfectly is no longer usable after a software update?

    I know that the unit is out of warranty, but something doesn't look good that I'll now have to pay for another phone when the iPhone 5 launched continuous pop ups listens to my daughter every day to update to iOS 9.3.2,and and then when we finally did what we kept being invited to do we have more a usable device.

    Details

    • MBP 15 "run OSX 10.11.5
    • iTunes 12.4.1.6
    • iPhone 5 (64 GB) already running iOS 9.3.1

    No, he has no responsibility, update that takes all of the resources of the iPhone will sometimes reveal a problem with the device.

    You could do an out-of-warranty replacement of this phone for about half of the cost of a new one, and you get an iPhone 64 GB replacement service in return. Or you can take it to a 3rd Honourable part store and have them diagnose and see if they can fix it.

    Before that, the problem may be a problem with the internet. Have you updated on a PC or a Mac?

  • Use iPhone as iPod and Fitness Tracker

    So, I have a few guess strange question, but I'm having a hard time finding an answer...

    I have a unlocked iPhone 6s I bought off eBay with a screen of crack for cheap. I'm looking to use it as an iPod and a discount tracker-shaped. Of course, the part of iPod is easy. But my big question is, to use as a fitness tracker I need to activate it? GPS capabilities, for a more effective follow-up, will be active even if the phone is not activated on a network?

    Thank you for your time!

    Hi LadyG4309,

    Welcome to the communities of Apple Support! I'm sure we can help you on with your question, or at least you pointed in the right direction. To access most of the features on an iPhone, it would need to be activated. If you are experiencing problems activating your iPhone, you can find information and troubleshooting procedures described in the following article useful:

    If you can not activate your iPhone - Apple Support

    On the other hand (since it is a second hand iPhone), if you see a lock of the Activation screen, you can find this article most useful:

  • I bought a new hard drive. I don't have a system recovery disk. Can I load Windows Vista from another source and activate using my original product key?

    I bought a new hard drive. I don't have a system recovery disk. Can I load Windows Vista from another source and activate using my original product key?

    Hello

    There is no download available from Microsoft Vista.

    Contact the manufacturer of your laptop and ask them to send a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key determines which Edition is installed.

    Builders recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    See you soon.

    p.s. If the old hard drive is still installed and running before you change on hard drives and you never received the to purchase recovery discs, you can make the recovery discs from the recovery Partition which should be on the old hard drive. You will need to request that the manufacturer how to do as each computer manufacturer has their own way of making records of this partition recovery.

    It depends on the old hard drive still works.
