I bought my iPad second hand off an internet site. I've since been locked out and I'm getting a message to contact the original owner which unfortunately I'm unable to do. Is there any way that I can get it unlocked?
iPad Pro 9.7-inch WiFi
Unfortunately, unless you can contact the previous owner, no, there is nothing you can do. Can you contact the Internet site for assistance? If yes, ask for a refund. If not, then you are just out of luck and have a paperweight that looks a lot like an iPad. You will not be able to activate it without the original owner removing Activation Lock. It is useless to you.
