I just updated my iPhone 4S to iOS 7. Find my iPhone was set up using an old Apple ID (one that I don't have the password to anymore). I cannot log out of iCloud, turn of Find my iPhone or use the correct Apple ID. Does anyone know how to fix this problem since I do not have my old Apple ID password? Also, does anyone know why -when updating to iOS 7- my phone reverted to an old Apple ID?
Thanks!
iPhone 4S, iOS 7
I have been trying to figure this out for the past month!!! Thanks so much for posting; it worked perfectly!!
But what if I can't even get on my I phone because it is stuck at the Incorrect password and apple id?
I am also stuck at incorrect password and apple id!! What do I do?
There is nothing you can do unless the previous owner releases ownership. However, I don't believe the year of use because Activation Lock only became available with iOS 7, about 3 months ago.
Downgrading will not solve the problem. The Activation Lock is in Apple's Activation Server, and even a downgraded phone will be refused activation.
That just means that millions of people have bought stolen iPhones. Next time they will be more careful.
iPhone iOS 7; wrong Apple ID
