Was given a used iPad and the password needed to activate is the persons who gave it to me. Says the owner has used find my phone to link to their Apple ID. Is there anyway to activate it without that persons information??

I bought the I pad in July 2011 from El Corte Inglez in Jerez de la Frontera. It was given to me as a present from my cousin. I do not have access to my IPad Activation Locked. A password is required to activate this device because the owner has used Find My iPhone to link it to their apple ID. Please help me to over rule this. Thanks in advance Nico

Activation Lock! HELP!! SO my dad found this iPhone 7 in his store and he couldn't find the owner. It was possibly a customer that lost his/her phone. So we can't log in to contact the owner because it has the Activation Lock. Is there any way to get passed this? Because we have no way to contact the owner, no idea who they are. Thanks!

The giver can remove the lock without giving you their information. Aside from this, no; the activation lock is an anti-theft measure.
