trying to erase everything on the phone to
I toss in a couple for new phones and want to erase everything off the phones. I already have new active phones, when I try to erase all the content he asks my apple ID password. When I enter the password it will not accept. Any thoughts?

Trying to erase and reset my phone with no luck!
Trying to erase and reset my iPhone 5 s factory for a member of the family can use it.
I'm going to...
Settings > general > reset > erase content and settings
But... He asked my password Apple ID through the next steps. I entered a million times (and reset and added to my new phone which worked well), but this old phone just does not accept the password. So I can't wipe all my stuff or take off my Apple ID.
Help!
It seems you have the Activation active locking iCloud.
You can try signing out iCloud in the settings on the device, and then try the restore.
If this does not work, you can also try to remove device from 'find my iPhone' to iCloud.com
Turn off find my iPhone Activation Lock - Apple Support
If the phone is not listed on the site, it can be locked on a different account.
Have you ever changed your Apple ID? The iPhone is smart enough to recognize when an Apple ID has been changed. If you have changed your Apple ID without signature on iCloud first, this could be the reason why you have trouble to remove the lock.
If you have the original proof of purchase of the device, Apple will be able to remove the lock if the receipt is valid.
I hope this helps!

Corrupted hard disk I tried to remove the disk, use unlocker to see how long it would take to remove a complete 500 GB instead of formatting. He paused to remove all and windows is now on a different drive, but it always detects the other as active, I get constant popups saying some files are missing, and it is possible that the disc is damaged or a netwoprk cable has been disconnected, but it's because I deleted the files say are missing. I can not format because I have errors during the attempt, may not make a disk check but in disk manager it says the drive is healthy. I tried to install windows on t6he disk, but the format gets 99% and stops. I know that the drive is not broken, because it worked fine until I did! The windows folder is still on disk with some deleted files and the folder of the system volume and the restore folder are always there, they cannot be deleted now because when I try I get errors/popups saying that the drive is in use & that some files are missing, some of them begin with the sign $.
I forgot to mention I'm running 32-bit xp with cpu e8500.
How can I remedy is - anyone know please?
See you soon
Pc boot to the cd to install windows xp, to the menu, press the r key, for
"recovery console", select 1 for drive C:, press on enter password, in recovery.
type: DiskPart DiskPart in DiskPart, select the old hd, select "delete partitions, either."
to create one, or press ESC, if created, type: FORMAT D: /NTFS
D: is the new
letter was asigned. Once its thru or if no partition has been created, type: EXIT
Format & partition in xp, do this diskmgmt.msc in,.
I imagine that all problems of youre treat options in windows Explorer, usually it hd
will not work cause hd is active...

2 the questions here please:
During the unlocking process: it says that I need to erase everything on my iPhone 5 s. So, what of my contacts? How can I get that back? because the backup to icloud it nor iTunes.
In addition, what happens if I do not erase the content? That will prevent my form of phone is unlocked?
Thank you very much

Do not erase everything on your phone under the procedure of release. If you have your phone set to backup Contacts on iCloud, they will be saved and then can be later reloaded on your phone after erasing it. I just got two iPhone 5 and it worked well. Also to do a full backup to your computer via iTunes and transfer everything what is not already saved if you are asked. The only problem I encountered was that some applications does not and I had to manually reinstall the.

IPhone 6 64 gb
iOS 9.2.1
The phone says no service but the SIM card works, everything in the phone works except the flash still lights up and flickers sometimes before becoming stable but who don't mind not 'that' much, ive tried factory reset and everything, ive also open the unit and looked for signs of damage, the phone knows there is a SIM card in the phone , but he never says the name of the carrier, also after the restart he said looking and does not stop until I have remove and reinsert the SIM card.
You can restore the factory state after an iTunes backup
If this does not resolve the problem then you may want to align on Apple or an approved repair shop

I've deleted all my iBooks but the phone memory shows 4.5 GB of data. How can I clear this space?
Have you tried a soft-reset/reboot the phone? If that is not free space you could try to download a little ibook on iTunes from your computer (or if you use a Mac updated iBooks application) and select Synchronize on the phone and see if that frees up space

PROBLEM: My 8330 don't push my gmails on the phone. I get messages from 1 of 4 pushed towards the phone. I have re-sent service books, I deleted and added gmail to my bb (thru BIS). I deleted the gmail off my outloook as well from my PC.
I downloaded GMAIL to Google blckberry and that works, but I like my gmail to combine in my Inbox.
I need a blackberry on this expert help.
Support VERIZON was not able to solve this problem.
In ADDITION the filter of gmail for duplicate messages does not work on my blackberry, which means that the messages I send on gmail.com or my BB back immediately as duplicates.
I got 10 blackberry so I am not novice, Please HELP!
It's so frustrating!
Thank you in advance!
Helfy
I'll try what you did... entirely delete the account of the BIS Gmail account.
- Then on your BB, Options > Advanced > Service books. Remove ALL instances of your Gmail email account there.
-With the BlackBerry device powered time, remove the battery a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to restart.
-Then add the Gmail account to your configuration of BIS. And click on send Service directories while you're there.
HOWEVER, I would do nothing of this earlier, as there are currently this morning a RIM BIS account integration power outage, or downtime. Wait a few hours until that which is cleared up.
