How do I unlock my iPad?
My dad bought me an iPad as a kid and he used his old girlfriends Apple ID to set it up and I'm locked out of it and we can't contact his old girlfriend so what should I do?

Once that is fixed, have the person use this page prior to handing it over it to you: What to do Before you Sell, Give Away, or Trade in your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support.
