Activation lock

The Ipad that I now have (ipad mini) was my brothers old Ipad. He forgot his apple ID and now that I restored the ipad it asks for Activation lock, and my brother doesn't know his Apple ID. I want to know how I can remove the Activation lock so that I can get into the Ipad!

See this guide:

How to remove Activation Lock - Apple Support


You can either remove it by remembering the Apple ID, and resetting the password.


Or you can apply for having it removed with proof of purchase.


Good luck!
