• Former owner will not take the time to remove his ACCT. I have his name, number, address, serial number, imei of the device. I've added it to my Verizon plan. I can't activate it! Apple won't help me but him?

  Former owner is not the time to remove the device from his account. I have his name, number, address, serial number and imei of iphone.  I always had of BONE cell phones, but my daughter IOS. I made sure that the IMEI was clean and it was not on the black list before adding it to my Verizon account. Now, I learned about icloud.  Verizon has brought his number to the iphone and now she has no phone to use. I called apple, but I was told that they could not help me, but they might help the original owner.  They original owner is older and perhaps confused after I tried to explain what I've learned.  What can I do when the original owner is/was/still confused about how the system works?  I'm always lost in this world of apple.

  It sounds as if this iPhone is locked in Activation.  Here is the complete description of locking Activation:

• Lock - contact the former owner - activation mission impossible?

  Hi Apple community!

  I bought an iphone 5 recently, which is locked (bought cheaply but) activation of the former owner. Of course, the person who sold me the unit doesn't have any info on the phone. BUT! I want to get in touch with the previous person to return the unit or get the activation lock removed.

  So I called the Apple Support and the representative understood the situation but he couldn't help me. He told me what network it is locked (carrier). After that I contacted the carrier and they said that they are not able to access users account.

  To be clear, I did not for all data, I asked Apple and the carrier to contact the owner to inform him I have his camera and if he wants it back because it's useless for me.

  Is there a way to get in touch?

  Because, if not, can someone explain to me what the purpose of blocking of Activation option? Should ' t that he be that owners get their goods?

  I know I'll get answers like "BACKSPACE" and "you should buy this in the first place", but please understand that I'm looking for help and a solution.

  Thank you very much!

  You could turn the iPhone to the police.  They may seek the rightful owner or have a current report of loss.

  In most jurisdictions, property unclaimed within a period of time can be returned to the person who makes it. It would be useless to you, but at least there is a chance, that it is up to the buyer.

  I don't have any contact info for the former owner, what can I do?

  If the iPhone requires an Apple ID and password from the previous owner to unlock: then nothing. Return it to where you bought it and demand a refund. The iPhone doesn't help you.

  Otherwise, you will need to explain why you need the previous owner.

  Hello world

  I got a SSD problem earlier which resulted in having to install a new SSD. like normal ppl, I just saved on an external HD when I registered the new SSD, I put my info and myself as an administrator, however, on the old system, there was a different owner, and when everything was restored on my machine these data or information obtained in the new system, for example, in certain situations, the previous owner admin "privileges" still visible , and I think it's playing with my computer. someone has any idea how to remove all traces of the former owner of my computer?

• Used t500. Wondering if former owner can draw using computrace and bios Cela will disable?

  Hey gang, just buy a kijiji t500 opportunity and was a little concerned about their former owners / anyone being able to trace it or disable it remotely.  Can I disable or reset it somehow?

  Lenovo will not work the Computrace support system (it is a third-party system), and you cannot save the laptop to anyone in particular.

  As long you have kept the correspondence (e-mail, advertising, sms, phone call for the transaction) and asked the right amount of identity and proof of purchase to the original owner, then you should be fine.

  If you're worried about things, next time, write a sales contract which clearly ask the seller to declare that the laptop is not obtained by illegal means, and it is the first owner of the laptop. Ask also received as evidence.
