Bought IPhone 6 s second hand (slight dilemma)
So I basically bought a brand new 6 iPhone from a third-party seller. Everything is in order, except for the fact that it has locked on the ERA. I read on the site of the AGE you need to be on the ERA because I think only 6 months to a year (?) on the distribution that is not the case, and I'm not about to get a contract to EA; I'd rather be on my contract to three (data unlimited, 600 minutes, texts of 2000).
So, what is the best way to get to unlock my phone? Should I go to an independent phone unlocker (apparently that might bugger the warranty of the phone and empty), or do it myself (also voids the warranty) or do I just do it through EE (might require a certain amount of time spent with this network)? And also heard that the first 2 options are not always permanent solutions?
The Apple Store will at all, if they understand my slight dilemma? Or are they enough ugh on that sort of thing? (of course, my English is amazing)
There is only one way to get an iPhone Unlocked permanently and good, and that's to ask the carrier for an unlock is locked. Apple do not unlock phones because it does not lock them in the first place, do carriers. If you pay some hack to unlock, it will relock just in any case the first time, you have a problem and want to restore. Person other than the carrier claiming to unlock is indeed apply a hack, plain and simple. Only carriers may unlock permanently locked to their network.
Your only real option is to get EA to unlock, which means meeting some terms they have to free unlimited. Or, sell an EE user it and buy you a direct unlocked Apple device.

Hello I buy an i phone 4 second hand and I do not have his id what to do
I buy an iPhone 4 in second hand and I did not have his id to. It's an iPhone 4 and it's IMEI: *.
and ICCID: 89230030614032442294Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do if you do not know the previous owners of Apple ID, because the phone is locked iCloud, you can't ignore. If you can not return the unit to the person/place you bought out of second hand you are out of luck, unfortunately. Hope that answers your question. I would recommend also to edit your post and remove your ICCID, IMEI/as it is unnecessary information and not a good idea to spread publicly online.

Nobody here can help, and Apple will not help you to overcome the blocking of activation. If the seller does not cooperate and remove the unit from their iCloud account, then you will never be able to use this device yourself.

If the phone was jailbroken in the past, put it in recovery mode and hoping the firmware can be installed again are just what you can do. If this is not the case, have it checked by Apple would be the next step. But if they find that the phone was jailbroken, they will not serve the device.

You probably bought an iPhone stolen 6. Mine was stolen in Barcelona in Spain on June 10 by a pick-pocket. Fortunately, there is absolutely nothing you can do to make an iPhone locked to the activation of the work. You have a paper weight.

can I use my iphone to second hand 5s without making the user off icloud because I don't have all the details and its driving me crazy because it is a stupid idea, so I don't see how you can lose a phone
< published by host >
Nothing. Unless the previous owner, clearing his account iCloud, he will remain in the lock of Activation for ever. It is totally unnecessary for you.

I want to buy second hand iphone 6 of my friend. Now what should I do so that it shows he was registered in my name?
And what else should I check?
Number of restaurants is C3 * 5MQ
< personal information under the direction of the host >
If you mean mobile services then we should just change the SIM card and the phone factory reset. Which you are able to do it in the settings > general > reset > reset all or whatever.

Anyone could help me,
I am new to Apple of relativity.
I had bought a second hand, 2011 Apple Mac mini for my mom and I forgot to put in a keychain for the Mac mini, it's a bad thing for me to do?
I use Mac OS X Lion, and I think it has OS X Lion Recovery on it.
The computer held to ask the Keychain password. She was confused because I did not originally put in, and now I'm more confused.
I wanted to just give him a computer that was easy for her to use, so that she can stay in contact with his grandchildren and group of friends...
I didn't know what to do, no one to ask, so I made in my 'new' Apple Mac mini in the shop so that it can be fixed.
Here are the specs of the computer of Apple Mac mini that I bought for her:
Mac mini (mid-2011) - technical specifications
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Fred
The Keychain password is normally the password of the user, unless someone has changed the password. The keychain is installed as part of the operating system. You can see the article below which covers what Apple recommends for the sale of a computer. If there are parts of what was not done, maybe that's the problem.
