I bought an ipad at a garage sale, not sure what generation or what number. I have tried to google how to reset without the pincode on the mainscreen. no success. anybody know how I can just either remove the pin or factory reset?

Hello ~Is it activation locked to someone else’s account? If it is you will not be able to use it.. we cannot help you and neither can Apple. Let me know and in the meantime take a lookhere:
