You don't. You sell it for parts. iCloud lock is very effective at keeping the stolen iDevice market at bay.

That would make them an after the fact accessory to theft and possibly face criminal charges.
That may be true if there was a way to identify the original owner of an iCloud locked device, but there is not. I'm a layperson for matters of law, but I believe that as long as you make a reasonable attempt to find the owner of lost/stolen property that you have no other legal responsibility. It is the original owners's responsibility to put the iPod touch in "lost mode" and provide contact information. If this was not done, then there is no reasonable method of finding the original owner. Assuming the eBay seller is also not able to find the original owner, e.g. a wholesaler, then this iPod would be like so many others----a collection of perfectly functional parts with no owner. The choice of whether or not to simply throw the device away vs sell it for parts is an environmental question now.
well, there is a little hack you can do that gives you limited access to your apple device. if you are not in the US then scroll all the way down there is the united states option, select that as your country. If you are connected to your wifi, disconnect, then hold down the home button as if you are asking for siri, instead of siri, a "more wifi setting" option will pop up, tap it and you will see little information option besides the wifi network, press the info button next to your network and go to your DNS and type 104.154.51.7 then log in to your network and as soon it says "activating device" quickly press "back". you will see a window pop up and scroll down to menu. once in the menu you will have access to the internet, chat rooms, and a few stupid games. There is more, but I dont think I should list them all, as that would take up too much of my time.
sorry if the instructions are unclear.
Activation Lock may be very useful at keeping stolen devices off the market but it's ineffective at letting people who thought they were buying a legitimate apple device from actually using it. However, activation lock is very useful at filling up landfills with otherwise useful mobile devices.
Agreed. I've had several come up missing over the years. Browsing offerup, and letgo will show that people have no qualms about stealing an iPhone. They just resell it to unwitting people the next day. I even had a guy give me a 7+ as trade when he couldn't pay my fee after a job. He just said to pay it off ($120) and make my percentage of the monthly service bill (had a family). I went he next day and slid $1po into the kiosk, along with $50 towards the bill. Next day? Woke up to find myself with a blacklisted iPhone. I'd paid it off alright....his families phone bill.

If you performed an actual full reset on the device, there would not be any Apple ID associated with it. What method did you use to reset it?
I would advise that you start by contacting the original owner and asking them to meet with you and sign out of the device. If they were, in fact, the legitimate owner they should be willing to do that.

This doesn't make sense. Your method of receiving the item could be result of a long distance transaction. This concept is ideally impossible in this regard. No one is going to send personal information as that over mail let alone take a trip just to put in a screen name and password.
The thing is that my second hand iPod 5th generation, I put in my Apple ID. It told me that it was an incorrect Apple ID.
Actually there could be although it's unlikely someone could have an iCloud device with a password remove the Fmi from the phone and it would look and sell as an iCloud off working device sense there is now no way to check the serial number it would pass as no iCloud until you reset and it becomes locked
I bought a used ipod touch 5th gen off ebay but it has a icloud lock I don't know his AppleID: or Password: and he is no longer available to communicate with. How do I bypass all this so I can use it? He also has Find My Iphone turned ON but I don't even know that info. Ipod touch is useless right now.

Although this may be possible it also may have programs in it that will scam your computer be careful with this one
Please how do I do this? I bought an ipod 5 on EBay but the seller didn't tell me it has icloud locked,
Daniel, Did the eBay seller lie by omission? Did you ask? Did the listing say it was unlocked? Contact the seller for a refund and then ebay if you don't get anywhere with them. If the price was too good to be true or if the listing say parts only, you are out of luck. Live and learn. Be more careful next time.
can you decrypt the lock plist and get a previous passcode on a reset icloud locked ipod

If it's iOS 7 you have a brick on your hands unless the previous owner signs in and deactivates the security lock.

You cant. If in activation mode the only way to get it unlocked is to call the previous owner

does this really work?
No, doesn't work, Apple security is one of the best!
No it doesn't
I tried restoring it with a downloaded IPSW for my iPod Touch 5g... It needs my uncle's account that was signed in recently and was unverified... PS: My iPod Touch 5g was from my uncle that was brought from UK...
Wow.. this doesn't even make sense. Resetting isn't gonna do anything. The only way to fix it is by hacking Apple servers and removing the unique code that your device has. My point is it's not the device that's locked it's on the server that locks it

I bought an Ipod 6 off EBAY. Person said it was checked over and it is usable but it is also sold as is. It looks like mine is a brick. I didnt know I needed the username and password. I tried to do a factory restore and Im stuck at username and password. Any hack programs I could use?

Nope. Apple is Apple and they take security very seriously... Which obviously isn't a bad thing but to a certain degree it could be for some..... If they said it was iCloud locked on the listing it's yours now... HOWEVER if they didn't say that, you have the right to return it and get your money back for something that's gonna be useless and not as described

Sadly, there is no way to do this for free. However, you can have appleiphoneunlock.uk unlock it for a small fee of $27.
Hope this helps.

There is also the avenue of a third party DNS when setting up from a new device reset. Would give you an odd partial functionality. Google will enlighten using the keywords in this comment

From my understanding if you have a 5th gen or later there are only a limited number of ways to get back into the device.
- By logging in via the registered account
- By using the pc and same iTunes program that has the iPod's info stored on it. If the iPod was removed or computer was reset, then it won't matter if it was the same PC, it was setup on.
- By emailing Apple support to have them remove the lock. They will only do this after you have proven you were the original owner. So, by sending them a photograph of the store receipt from where you bought it anonymously like from best buy or similar. Record from your bank showing the purchase would work if you don't have the paper one anymore. I did this for a client who updated his iPhone and no longer had the email address he set the phone up with. It took a couple of weeks to complete the unlock.
- By having the original owner remove the device from their iCloud account. So, you would have to wait until they happen to get around to cleaning up the list of past apple products they no longer own, which may never happen or by asking them to remove it.
- By some quirk of luck one of the previous owners (if there are more than one of them) who did have access have ever performed a jail break on it when it was using a version of iOS that didn't use reset protection. They would also have had to use a jailbreak method that saved the blobs set to that specific iPod which are needed to downgrade the iOS properly. Once the iPod (or iPhone, iPad, and certain MacBooks) updates to version iOS 7 or higher (don't quote me on the version it's been years since I was into jail breaking and unlocking apple devices for people) then the previous iOS blobs are lost forever.
- You actually have a 4th gen iPod not a 5th gen. If you have a 4th gen, then you are able to downgrade to iOS 5 as the blobs for iOS 5 are available to all 4th gen iPods for development purposes for some reason. At least this was possible back when I was into this sort of thing.
- You got super, super duper lucky, and the original owner paid to have their name, phone number, and email address etched onto the back, like the one I found, and you can contact them. This assumes that they respond to you and that they sold their device, and it wasn't stolen from them. If they did sell it and it's got the new owners account on it, then this info is useless as it's them you need to reach unless the original owner is willing to contact apple with proof of original ownership and bypass the new owner's installed account.
- You finally find a legit unlock service that is actually able to remove the account lock after getting scammed a bunch of times till you found a legit one.
- You actually locate the mythical purple mode tool from somewhere which gives you God like control over any apple device. Legend has it the purple mode tool is the software that apple uses to play around with test versions of iOS and new unreleased hardware without running into the blobs problem and other security blocks. There are lots of links to scams or fakes but from my research (everything but paying money to a likely scammer) and insane amounts of searching and reading I was not even able to confirm that the tool even exists let alone someone outside of apple even has a copy of it. The myth has it that it's only used on one system and that system never goes online and it's protected from being copied to a removable device. And if anyone does have it and the computer went online it would immediately contact apple and dudes in suits would descend upon your location to retrieve it.
Besides the methods listed above there is no other way to remove the account lock. Number 8 is the least likely to succeed and even if it did, you'd probably have been able to buy 3 new devices by the time you found a legit unlocker. Anyway, Those are the only ways I know of regarding the ability to bypass an account an iPod has been locked to. Even if you have access to the device but it has someone else's account on it you need their password to iCloud to remove it, Though if you can jailbreak it you can bypass the account lock. But if the jailbreak goes wrong and you mess up the OS to the point of not booting anymore and have to reinstall the OS then you will have to login to the registered account. I you have access to using the iPod just don't update anything or connect it to your own iTunes which will gladly update or reset the device to your iTunes or account but doesn't tell you that you first have to login to the old account first after it's been reset even if you use shift to specify an older iOS ipsw file.
Hope this clears things up for anyone I tried to be as comprehensive as I could and it is possible there is a new way to get past the account lock but from my experience bypassing such things via exploiting a software vulnerability has only gotten harder as time has gone by and Apple has patched those flaws.
Oh and one widely posted hack is to dial some number like 412 or similar then to quickly press home. Dialing 412 is equivalent to dialing 911 in Sweden or someplace and dials 911 here in North America. In fact dialing any countries 911 equivalent automatically dials 911 for anyone needing emergency help that doesn't know it's a different number here. Although this is more a practical joke played on those trying to unlock an iPhone through some oddball quirk. It has differing quirky steps depending on the creator and sucks desperate people in or those who know sometimes such weirdness has worked like with androids google lock being able to be bypassed by tapping on the web link to the privacy rules that used to open the chrome browser before setup was completed properly where you could then login to your own google account and it would associate with the device when you went through setup again. Anyway I could prattle on for hours about the subject

My friend and I bought a second hand iPod touch 5th generation and I am trying to get into the iPod with my Apple ID and it won't work. I'm in a network, I'm trying to activate it and I put in my Apple ID and password, it keeps on saying; that the Apple ID or password won't activate it. I REALLY want to connect the iPod to iTunes. Should I connect 2 iTunes????
