I have an iPad2 which I was syncing to my MacBook pro. For some reason my ipad has defaulted to the activation page. When I purchased it I was working for a company and may have used my company email. I left there in October last year and I know they have changed their server. I cannot activate the ipad because I do not know the original log in details. The ipad I purchased from new. Can anyone help me please?
 
I don't think there is anything you can do without having the user credentials from before. Will the company possibly help you out here? I'm pretty sure you're going to need the original credentials.

Unless of course you set the ipad up as a brand new device in which case you'd LOSE everything on there and whatever was associated with the original account.
 
iPad 2 reactivation

Thanks s2Mikey
I did set it up from new. Does that make a difference? I did think about using my current credentials because i changed my details when I left. The problem is I cant get past the activation screen.
