If you forgot your Apple ID - Apple Support
No, Apple cannot do that. Your Mom needs to get her work to remove the Activation Lock. Tell her to give them this link: What to do before you sell or give away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support
how to reset password:

If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
Or provide more information so someone may offer a solution.
I have a question I was given iPad it was lock so reset to back factor setting but go in put my information in said I cannot finish activation iPad due it connect to someone else account. How can I by pass this issue in order get my information the iPad.
If you are getting the Activation Lock message you will have to find the previous owner and get them to remove it. If you cannot do that then return the watch to where you purchased it and get your money back.
No. IF you are getting an application lock message as I said your options are to contact the previous owner and get them to clear the activation lock, which will then allow you to set a new password or return it and get your money back. If you are unable to do either of those things you will never be able to use that watch.
I am the first user i forgot my password before but i have been able to remember it and changed it,but the problem now is that i can not remember what i used as my first pet name or my dream job, without which i can not unlock my Ipad 4. What next to do.

I need an activation code so I could unlock my code to any carrier
There is no such thing. Only the carrier the phone is locked to can authorize unlocking it. By the way, your question has absolutely NOTHING to do with the topic of this thread.
As has been said many times in this thread you cannot use that iPhone unless you know the person who set the Activation Lock and have them remove it. Since the iPhone is not yours turn it in to your local authorities.
This is my IPad
I have not used it for some time and I am now trying to set it up to start using it again.
It was purchased by me.
Obviously over the space of time passwords have been changed.
I need to be able to use this IPad - how do I go about getting this going.
Hey my iPad locked saying I couldn't unlock it on the activation lock , I updated the iPad that iv had for three or more years and then I turned it back on and it asked me for an email s*****@hotmail.com that an email i never made
Since you came in and skipped all previous posts I'll give you the readers digest version:
1. You've purchased a second hand device that was Activation Locked by a previous owner.
2. If you know the previous owner send them this: what to do before you sell or give away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
3. If you do not know who they are Apple will not help you find out. Return your iPad to the seller and get your money back.
This is an anti-theft method implemented by Apple and has been highly successful.
Hi I just bought this iPad from Kijiji for my 7 year old son and as I plugged it into iTunes I seen that I can't log into it because it seems that it belongs to someone else. I just $150 for this and I can't even use it.

Return it and get your money back. If you can't do that, turn it over to the police.
There is no way to bypass the activation lock. It's a brick.
