Hello paulix114,
Thank you for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like the device may have an activation lock on it.
These steps may help:
"Remove Activation Lock on the device
Follow the onscreen steps to enter the Apple ID and password you used to set up your device or your device passcode.
Learn how to find your Apple ID or reset your Apple ID password.
Remove Activation Lock on the web if a device is offline
Start a support request
If you need help removing Activation Lock and have proof of purchase documentation, you can start an Activation Lock support request."
More details can be found here: How to remove Activation Lock
Your friend would have to login using his Apple ID in order to remove it.
Cheers!
