Cannot use apple whatch given to me by my uncle

Hey guys, I live in California; My uncle gave me his Apple Watch and traveled to Africa. I can't use the watch even after doing a factory reset. He said he tried to removin the watch from his account, but he needed the watch next to him to complete the process.

So my question is "is there a way to reset this watch without send it to Africa.

Hello

You describe Activation Lock, which prevents the unauthorized use of Apple Watch if it is lost or stolen.

In order to pair the watch to your iPhone, you would need your uncle to enter the Apple ID and password on your device or to disable the feature via https://www.icloud.com/ by signing with his Apple ID > settings > my devices > Apple Watch-click > click the 'X' > click on delete.

If you can't arrange for him to do, you will not be able to use the watch. There is no way around this security feature.

    This is what Oracle says:

    ORA-16019: can't use string with LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST or LOG_ARCHIVE_DUPLEX_DEST

    Cause: One of the following events caused a mismatch:

    (1) setting LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST or LOG_ARCHIVE_DUPLEX_DEST was in use when the LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_n specified (n = 1.. 31) or parameter DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST occurred during extraction of initialization parameters.

    (2) LOG_ARCHIVE_DUPLEX_DEST or LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST parameter was used when an attempt is made to use an ALTER SYSTEM or ALTER SESSION command to set a value for the specified parameter LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_n or DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST.

    (3) a command ALTER SYSTEM ARCHIVE LOG START FOR was in effect when the specified parameter LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_n met during extraction of initialization parameters.

    (4) an ALTER SYSTEM ARCHIVE LOG START FOR order was in effect when an attempt is made to a command ALTER SYSTEM or ALTER SESSION allows you to set a value for the specified parameter LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_n.

    Action: Eliminate all inconsistent parameter definitions.
