Hi guys? i bought an ipad 2 running ios 7 and and now am stuck with the activation of the ipad with the sellers account, i tried contacting the seller several times, but to no avail, was thinking i could use red snow to downgrade back to ios5 and bypass the activation anyway. any ideas pls help?:confused:
 
ipad 2

any suggestions as to how i can bypass the activation screen? and start using the device?
 
Next time buy only from a person that will reset it in front of you while removing it from their icloud account.
At this point it is only worth parts until you get the information from the RIGHTFUL owner ;) or they remove it from their account.
 
You can't down unless you have 4.3 blobs, which I doubt the ex-owner has backed them up.

Even you downgrade successfully you still need to enter the owner's apple id in order activate and restore a backup
