Activation unlock

I Bought A Second Hand IPad Mini it’s a 2014 Series and it’s stuck on Activation Lock I can’t get in touch with the previous owner due to moving off island and change of phone number so I’m stuck and need to figure this out I paid money for something I thought wasn’t gonna give me a problem.

Only the AppleID and passcode used to initiate the Activation Lock

can remove it. Without that information, the iPad is and will remain

useless to you.


When/if you regain contact with the previous owner, give them this link:
