IPhone 5 deceased of family

My sister died recently and was one of the things that gave me his iphone 5 c.

It has been reset so she asks to be "setup", but it comes up saying that it is registered to his apple id and password.

So before I waste time on the phone with apple support, I have 2 questions.

(1) is there something that can be done in this situation?

(2) if so what information should I if I don't know the apple ID, I also have a photo of the Act of death etc.?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Please accept my condolences. Without this ID device apple is almost useless. There's a chance if you take this device at the Apple Store with documents confirming the property and a death certificate.

  • Help deleting everything on my old iPhone 5

    I want to give my old iPhone 5 to a family member.  He threw around since I was a new iPhone 6s.  I need to erase everything on my old phone, but cannot.  He has not been connected to Verizon since I went from phones. I have always used the same email address but I must have used a different password from Apple ID on my old phone. I don't remember what it was.  I changed my password of my Apple ID for everything, but will not change the password on my old phone.  I am at a loss how to erase everything because I don't remember the old password.  It is still listed in my devices in my Apple ID / account iCloud and I can click on delete, but I don't think that would erase everything, isn't it?  Anyone know what I can do?

    Thank you!

  • Storage

    I have increased my Icloud storage space, but I am unable to get library Icloud in storage management (settings, general, storage and use of Icloud) which means that my photos are not saved in Icloud. We have another Iphone belonging to the family who save in Icloud. All settings, I did the same thing without success.

  • Internet does not connect to Google Sites?

    My family knew well poor internet for about a month and yesterday that we had a new router and now the internet in our home. With the exception of my MacBook Air. Loading of some sites, like apple's site and my favorites loading (sometimes), but I can't at all google search. Can not I use YouTube, gmail, etc.. I know there are a lot of similar problems, but they are not as accurate as mine. This problem is not only on Chrome, Google pages does not work on Safari and Firefox.

    I have a trustworthy application that I can sweep through files and find viruses, and it showed clean.

    I also tried to re - download Chrome, no change. I tried on other accounts of Chrome, and I tried to empty my cache and my story and nothing. I tried completely restart my computer, let it remain closed, I checked the updates on the two Chrome and the computer itself, but nothing.

    Works very well in our internet, it's super fast on my iPhone and on my family member's computers. Although, if I disconnect and reconnect to the internet, and then immediately as he reconnects, I update the page loading pages. Sometimes, I have to do this several times for pages to load. It's not really ideal. Videos don't work at all, the refreshing splash page.

    The strange thing is - I can still receive and send emails, I can connect to the origin to play Sims 4, can I still use iMessage, etc.. This isn't a problem with the internet.

    This computer is only around the age of 9 months, and this is the second time I had a problem with the internet (the last time the IP is wack but it attaches somehow after a month or two).

    I'm racking my brain for a solution, I need to be able to use internet, most of my homework is on the internet.

    Help, please!

    (Home: the error message I get on Chrome)

    You may have installed one or more variants of the malware "VSearch' ad-injection. Please back up all data, and then take the steps below to disable it.

    Do not use any type of product, "anti-virus" or "anti-malware" on a Mac. It is never necessary for her, and relying on it for protection makes you more vulnerable to attacks, not less.

    Malware is constantly evolving to work around defenses against it. This procedure works now, I know. It will not work in the future. Anyone finding this comment a couple of days or more after it was published should look for a more recent discussion, or start a new one.

    VSearch malware tries to hide by varying names of the files it installs. To remove it, you must first identify the naming model.

    1 triple - click on the line below on this page to select, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination:

    /Library/LaunchDaemons

    In the Finder, select

    Go ▹ go to the folder...

    from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + V. You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return.

    A folder named "LaunchDaemons" can open. Search inside the files with the name of this form:

    com.something .net - preferences.plist

    Here, something is a string, which may be different in each instance of VSearch random meaningless. So far it has always been an alphanumeric string without punctuation signs, such as "disbalance" or "thunderbearer."

    You may have more than one copy of the malware, with different values of something.

    There may be one or more files with the name of this form:

    com.somethingelseUpd.plist

    where George can be an empty string of sense that something different. Yet once, there may be more than one file of this type, with different values of Gisele.

    Here is a typical example of an infection VSearch:

    com.disbalance .net - preferences.plist

    com.thunderbearerUpd.plist

    You will have files with similar names, but probably not identical to these.

    If you feel confident that you have identified the above files, back up all data, and then drag the files - nothing - to the trash only. You may be prompted for administrator login password. Close the Finder Windows, and then restart the computer.

    Do not delete the folder 'LaunchDaemons' or anything else inside, unless you know you have another type of unwanted software and more VSearch. The file is a normal part of Mac OS X. The "demon" refers to a program that starts automatically and runs without direct user intervention. This is not necessarily bad.

    2 reset the home page in each of your browsers, if it has been modified. In Safari, first load the desired home page, then select

    ▹ Safari preferences... ▹ General

    and click on

    Set on the current Page

    The malware is now permanently inactivated, as long as you reinstall it never. A few small files will be left behind, but they have no effect, and trying to find all them is more trouble that it's worth.

    3. If you do not find the files or you are not sure about the identification, after what you have found.

    If in doubt, or if you have no backups, change nothing at all.

    4. the trouble may have started when you have downloaded and run an application called "MPlayerX." It is the name of a legitimate free movie actor, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an element with that name in the Applications folder, delete it. I do not recommend to install the genuine "MPlayerX", because it is hosted on the rogue 'SourceForge' site and is bundled with other malware.

    This Trojan horse is often found on the illegal Web sites that traffic in content such as movies pirated. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit these Web sites and follow the instructions to install the software, you can expect more of the same and worse, to follow. Never install software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or which has been downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.

    In the aspect of security & confidentiality of system preferences, select the general tab. The marked anywhere radio button should not be selected. If this is the case, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, and then select an other keys. After that, do not ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown Director.

    Then, still in system preferences, open the pane of the App Store or software update and check the box marked

    Install the system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later version)

    or

    Automatically download the updates (OS X 10.9 or earlier version)

  • Apple Watch question

    Good so my whole family is new phones and I'm not with them, but they have my phone. They are miles away, but I always sort my messages on my Apple Watch even if my phone is obviously way out of reach. The shows always said also that I am connected. Anyone know how this is possible?

    Also, they are trading in my old phone so that I won't get it means at the time when they come home. Will I be able to pair my new phone with my watch, since I am unable to turn off the old phone pairing?

    Apple Watch is able to connect to Wi - Fi networks that previously were joined by your iPhone and in such circumstances, has more features, even when the iPhone is out of reach.

    There will be no problem matching your watch to your new iPhone, I hope your family is properly preparing the old phone when it is sold: what to do before you sell or give away your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch - Apple Support.

  • RDP-XF300iP dock does not connect

    Someone at - it a fix for the rechargeable dock on the RDP-XF300iP? Both my iPad, iphone, ipod and every family members music source does not charge. The Audio System docking station is plugged into my kitchen counter and has not been moved since I put it there the day it was bought. This pretty much makes this useless device for me since the FM on the radio has incredibly bad static... it it not by a computer, switch light, TV or other electronic device. It is, however, in front of the exit that I tried to plug it into a different plug but still the same response. Not only does the device not load, it captures not Pandora or music on my devices.

    I LOVE or LOVED this system.

  • WRT54G2 V1 a on and outside, unreliable internet connection since Saturday

    Wireless router does not 2 macs and 1 of our iphones to connect to internet, but allows another laptop mac and iphone belonging to the family to connect... very annoying and frustrating! Everything worked very well until Sam h. The connection of the airport on the mac G5 desktop and MacBook Pro have both a connection airport with message saying something on "ip auto assigned, may not be able to connect to the internet." The other 2 (an iphone and a MacBook Pro) were lucky and didn't have any problems.

    Restart the router works for a bit on the elements having problems, but then it cuts the internet once again.

    Have been on Apple forums and have seen the same question and I would do my own test to see if maybe it was the mac system software or the modem - brought the laptop with the problems connecting to Panera today for lunch and the wifi worked well so this tells me that the modem is the problem of thought.

    At home and update the firmware to the latest version (from March), but seems the question still exists!

    Seems other people having this problem here on the forums of Linksys, so...

    Linksys what is your resolution for this?

    After an update of the firmware, you must reset the default router, and then configure the router again from scratch.  If you have not done this since your last update of the firmware, please do it now and see if it solves your problem.  If you have saved a router configuration file, DO NOT use it.

    To reset the router press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds... Release the reset button... Unplug the power cable from your router, wait 30 seconds and reconnect the power cable... Now re - configure your router...
    Also, make sure that your computer is configured to obtain an IP automatically, disable any firewall, the security software on the computer before you try to access the configuration page...

    If your Internet Service is cable follow this link

    If your Internet Service is DSL follow this link

    Open an Internet Explorer browser on your computer (desktop) wired page. In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press ENTER... Let the empty user name & password use admin lowercase...
    For wireless settings, follow these steps: -.
    Click on the Wireless tab
    -Here, select manual configuration... Wireless network mode must be mixed...
    -Provide a unique name in the name box of the wireless network (SSID) in order to differentiate your network from your network of neighbors...

    -Set the channel 11-2 wireless, 462 GHz... Wireless SSID broadcast should be enabled and then click on save settings...
    Please take note of the name of the wireless network (SSID) because it's the network identifier...
    For wireless security: -.

  • PlayStation view family iPhone app will not download

    We just decided to cut the cable and begin broadcasting using the PlayStation view platform.  So far it meets our needs.  However, my daughter's room has a feature of Chromecast broadcast it manages by using his iPhone (my old iPhone 4S).  She is about 9 years old and I've set him up on my family iTunes account.  Here's the problem: when it opens its app Chromecast to download the app view PS, the 'Get' for PS view button is shaded out and leaves him not download the app on his iPhone.  I am convinced that this is due to a limit of age because of my family configuration.  How can I work around this problem so that we can download this application?  Where can I go to change the family settings?  Can I download it for her on my device and then have it download from the cloud?  These are all the right ideas.  I do not know.

    Hello bubbajaxonbrown,

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple. I know have a problem with applications, it's not what you expect. If I understand correctly, you are unable to download the app PlayStation view from the App Store on the iPhone of your daughter 4 s. Because this app is part of the family sharing, I'd start with the steps in this article to resolve your problem:

    If you do not see your family's shared content

    Another way, you can get this app on iPhone for your daughter is to transfer the application from your iPhone to iTunes on a computer with this process:

    Redownload or transfer of your iTunes Store purchases from an iPhone, iPad or iPod to a computer

    Then sync the app to iTunes on a computer at your daughter 4 s iPhone:

  • Best way to set up multiple iPhones within the family?

    We have 3 iPhones in our family, and we always use the same Apple ID for all three devices.  I understand there was recently some changes to ios, and this strategy may not be the best way to have things to put in place now.  I started seeing a strange behavior between phones, with calls/texts appear on the phones of other people.  Doing some research, it seems that perhaps we should all have separate Apple ID and then go the family share the road, so I was hoping someone could explain clearly how can I do to set this up.

    Right now I have my ID Apple we use for purchases, and it seems that we use an old account @me.com for our iCloud account... which I suppose is what has allowed us to share calendars, see all our devices to find my iPhone, etc.  My ID Apple is not the same as the address of the iCloud account.

    I work in it and myself usually as a guy... pretty strong goal, I will admit that all these Apple and iCloud IDs confuse me... so any help is appreciated.  My main goals here are:

    • Be able to see the locations of all the people of my family
    • Have no other phone calls/texts/etc
    • To share and be aware of purchasing iTunes on all devices
    • I have set up, Music Match on my Apple ID (I think...), so I don't want to lose this functionality across all devices
    • Share a family calendar that we do today (and I hope not to lose what is currently implemented)

    Thanks in advance!

    Add to this... I just looked at the option icloud on my phone and it shows my address @me.com as a principal and an address of @icloud.com as a verified.  My apple account is my gmail address, and my wife and daughter use their gmail as their primary e-mail accounts.

    So I was wondering if I should put in place of the apple for each of them using ID addresses gmail... then we would all have an identifier associated with our gmail addresses apple.  If this is the case, how to set up the account icloud?  I can leave it like that, or should I set up with my gmail account, as my apple ID?

  • How can I download songs on my iPhone and I have the same on my mac through apple's music. I have family membership

    I have family membership, now, the thing is that I have a collection of songs that I downloaded on my iPhone through apple's music. But when I open iTunes on my mac I do not see these songs in my music.

    With the family plan, only computers/devices that share an Apple ID will show the same Apple's music library. So if your iPhone and your Mac are signed in two different Apple ID as part of your subscription to the family, they each have their own my library. It is one of the points in favor of the family subscription - you can have your own library of songs.
