    Would You purchase a 4-inch iPhone SE?

    iPad (original owner) locked with unrecognized Apple ID after erase and restore.

    It is running iOS7 and my frustration is showing. Doing Google searches, I have come across others with this issue on Apple Support and other forums.

    iPad (original owner) locked with unrecognized Apple ID after erase and restore.

    My Mother-in-law was giving her iPad, of which she is the original owner, to my daughter. When my daughter erased all of the data and content of the iPad, it came up registered to an AppleID (ends in qq dot com) from a foreign country, I can't include it here because it results in my post being...
