Password to unlock iPad not known. The owner is deceased and the next of kin wanted to replace her old ipad with the deceased latest one. Went through factory reset and was instructed to delete the deceased’s iCloud account, which we did and instructed to wait some time before continuing to ensure account had been closed. When we went to try and open up the iPad, to do a transfer of data from old to, it asked for a password, which the next of kin did not know as when it was bought she could not remember there being one.
