you don't know that till after you steal it. If it doesn't have a pin and they signed into their mail account you can use the mail app to reset the password and disable find my iPad for example.is it even worth stealing ipads if you cant even use it?
seems like a waste of time
no you cantyou don't know that till after you steal it. If it doesn't have a pin and they signed into their mail account you can use the mail app to reset the password and disable find my iPad for example.
Yes you can. I just tested it and it works.no you cant
Can't they just do a factory reset?Funny thing..thieves dont know that stolen ipads/iphones are basically only worth parts..cause you aint activating that shyt ever again without the passcode
im pretty sure you have to answer the authentication questiosnYes you can. I just tested it and it works.
For example if I used a Yahoo email address for my Apple ID and don't have a pin on my iPad and that Yahoo email is on the Mail app of the iPad then you can send a password reset link for that Apple ID to that email and remove it from the iPad. Since it's logged in on the Mail app you don't need the email address password to access email sent to it just open the app and it's there.

You go there and type in the Apple ID and it will send a reset link to the email.
This is why you need a pin lock on your devices.
If it's been paired with an Apple ID you have to have the password to remove that ID. This is a server side Apple issue. The device needs permission from Apple's server to work. It phones home and on the server if it's been paired the server won't grant permission to activate.Can't they just do a factory reset?
I got something for youSo as someone of you might've read, my pad Air 2 was stolen at my retail job by a couple. I use it for my job and it even has the job logo on it. The woman distracted me for 15 seconds while the other took it. Almost immediately after they left, I looked around and saw it gone. I tried to look at the security footage but by that time it was too late.
I have the security footage but not sure what I can do with it. I showed the cops and they said it would not be a priority but they have a description. It's a high traffic area so it's nearly impossible to track down the people. You can see the person but the quality isn't enough to fully id the chic and the guy.
Unfortunately, it was a wifi only ipad and they would have to manually connect to wifi in order for find my iphone to work and tell me where to bring a fuccking baseball bat.
I'm feeling helpless brehs. Already set lost mode up. No clue what to do from here. If Apple is to be trusted, it's impossible for them to reset it without my passcode. I was told to call pawn shops and already registered with a stolen property website. Anytips for how to recover it?
