How to gain access to my iPad A1432 mini iPad when I have forgotten code for activation lock

I found my old unused iPad mini A1432 2012. Would like to give it to my granddaughter but can’t get past activation lock. Not positive of old Apple ID or password. Would appreciate any help

Hi Fruit777,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities! We understand that you're looking for options to remove Activation Lock from an iPad before you give it away.

If you're unable to recover the Apple ID attached to the device, you'll want to click the "Start an Activation Lock support request" link if you have access to the original proof of purchase for the device.


Cheers!
