Bought an Apple Watch off someone and it won’t let me activate it as the watch is already linked to the previous owners device/phone.
Hi, I’ve recently bought an Apple Watch off someone and it won’t let me activate it as the watch is already linked to the previous owners device/phone.
it says that the previous owner needs to remove the device for their account but the problem is I don’t have any contact details or no means at all to contact the previous owner. Is there any other way around this? I feel really gutted as this was a present for my daughters birthday which is today and she can’t even use it.
many thanks for any help at all!
