Excuse me, have you ever had the same problem. Six years ago I bought Ipad 2 and registred my Apple ID. Some years after I changed email to Google gmail. Around week ago, I donno how, but my Ipad was restarted and now asking me Apple ID to activate it. When I'm trying to activate it by my Apple ID, it shows me that i couldn't activate it by this ID. But I have only ONE Apple ID.
iPad 2 Wi-Fi + Cellular
I don't have Ipad in my iCloud, when I'm trying to activate my device through iTunes it shows me this error
But I don't have any SIM card in my Ipad, so I find any SIM card and insert it. Then it asked me Apple ID, but when I'm trying to activate by my Apple ID it shows me that I couldn't activate it by this Apple ID (underlined by black).
But there it shows me my old email (underlined by red), so i thought maybe if I do THIS (by THIS I mean try to reset password if any Apple ID exists with my old email). So it shows me that is not Apple ID
Sorry for my bad english, it's not my native. So tried hard =)
Hi
Make an appointment at Apple store you will need proof of purchase
Did you buy ipad new or second hand?
It is asking for the first apple I'd & password that were used when ipad was new.

I'm from Kazakhstan and we don't have any official Apple Storesš I bought Ipad 2 six years ago and it was new (bought it in reseller store), ofc I throw receipt away when warranty was expired.
I'm the first owner of this Ipad
Any suggests?
Hi
If you paid for ipad using your Credit card ask your bank for a statement
When you bought ipad.
Or ask the place of purchase.
Cheers

Oh, i moved in another city which is far from where i lived before.
Still didn't solve
Take out the sim card and try again. Worked for me today.
Couldn't use Apple ID to activate
