I am having the same problem with my ipad mi ni. I have had it for 4 years..my activation lock just appeared when I was I messaging my kids..I am so frustrated and called 2 apple stores near me...no help from either. . I know it's a holiday but seriously I am beyond angry. My Apple ID will not work my password will not work it sends me to another website to reset my password I did. It locks me out I am furious absolutely Beyond Furious that I cannot get any help for this

If you know the Apple ID that was originally used to activate the device, but have forgotten the password, go to My Apple ID and follow the Reset your Password link. You will be prompted to verify you are the account owner either by email confirmation or by answering the security questions.
