Can't reset iPhone 6?
My brother gave me his iPhone 6 when he upgraded to a 7. When I go into setting his name is up the top. It automatically tells me to sign in to iCloud. He gave me his password but when I try it it tells me his apple verification has been locked for security reasons. He has 2 emails as well. It than tells me to verify account which Iv done on his behalf and still nothing. Iv tried factory resetting but it keeps telling me to sign in. It then goes on to say the hotmail address Apple ID doesn't exist.
It's really annoying. All I want to do is set it up as my phone with my name at the top and iCloud details.
Is it going to help if he deletes the phone off his iTunes on his computer.
It's hard as we're in different states.
Basically you need to get back to the factory setting and start again. To do this you need your brother's cooperation. If the Apple ID and password he gave you do not work then he will have to go through the verification (lost password) schedule, security questions and all. Hopefully he will do that for you and then reset the security on his own phone, since that is likely to be the same.
- Will the MAC address of my iPhone reset if I reset my iPhone to its factory settings over iTunes? I have jailbroken my device and used terminal to change my MAC address so that I could connect to school's Wi-Fi. But when I wanted to change it to its initial number, I typed in a wrong value and it just messed up my Wi-Fi, I can't connect to Wi-Fi anymore. Wonder if resetting to factory settings would help…
- What are places I can go where they can reset my iPhone? I was given an iPhone 5s by a friend who can't get into their email for their APPLE ID password reset and they don't know the pass (obviously) the SIM card from my old phone is not compatible because the iPhone 5 is from ATT and my SIM card is sprint(?) so what places do you know of I can go to clear the data on it, idek the term of a service you would call this, and also price wise?
