I accidently restored my new Iphone 12 with a backup on my laptop from my exwifes old phone. She no longer has that icloud account. how can I erase and start over and back up with my information from icloud without calling her.
iPhone 12, iOS 15
Hello yoiphoto,
We see that you need help with a backup on your iPhone.
First, you’ll want to make sure that you turn off Activation Lock and sign out of iCloud. Sign out of iCloud on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Apple TV, or Mac
Once you're signed out, you'll want to wipe all content and settings from your iPhone. Erase iPhone
After that, you can set the iPhone again and restore a backup from your device. Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup
Cheers!
