I have an ipad but lost my Apple ID. I requested a reset on December 20, and way sent information to do the reset today January 3. After I did the reset, it did not work. I need to use this ipad. It is important. Can anyone tell me how to get a valid Apple ID? Can I do it in less than two weeks? Please someone, help me. I guess I might just have to throw the ipad in the trash and try a tablet with Windows. This is completely hopeless.
This is Activation Lock, and intended as a theft deterrent, and is intentionally not easy to bypass.
Activation Lock shows a hint for the associated Apple ID.
You need that Apple ID and password, or a receipt with the serial number as proof of original purchase or other similar paperwork or legal paperwork and a discussion directly with Apple.
