Hi,

I'm new here.
I have legitimately been given an iPad form work. It was left in lost property for ages. Never claimed so they gave it to me.

I have been to Apple and had the password / pin removed to gain access ( this wiped anything that was on it.
But, I can't get into it still as It requires a password to the email. Of course I have no idea. Apple told me that without this I can't use it. Safety feature in case it was stolen.... how ironic as I didn't steal it.

Is there a way to get past this??
It'll just go in the bin if I can't and that is such waste!!

Hello and welcome to the forum! :) As already stated, you appear to be 'locked out' of the iPad - not sure which model the device may be, but I would suggest a donation so that the parts can at least be recycled - there are plenty of options, but for starters, take a look at Apple Reuse & Recycling Program - Dave
