I bought a used iphone can someone tell me how to change the apple id on phone please. Thank You!


Here is a thread about someone who'd bought a used iPhone tied to a former owners Apple ID.


Perhaps something there may be of help. There is a safeguard idea behind an owner and their

Apple ID, and most sellers would ready their product for re-sale, and remove their Apple ID as

well as any other account or purchased apps, that are not transferable to some other person.


Good luck in this matter! 🙂
