Hi guys, my friend face some problem with his ipad and i require some advise here. there are 2 part:
Part 1: 1. He used to use an hotmail account for apple ID (4years ago) 2. Due to hotmail was hacked, he changed another gmail account for apple ID 3. Gmail ID been used for years for his devices (ipad mostly) 4. Suddenly today, his ipad was asked to login with ID, and his hotmail ID was asked 5. Is very weird because very long did not use that hotmail ID already
Wondering anyone here know?
Part 2: 1. he brought the ipad to machine in Empire subang, with proof of purchase to reset the device 2. the employee there said no such service from them??
Any advice for this service?
Thank you guys

I suspect the Apple ID is not removed entirely. He probably just create a new Apple ID for iTunes. The Apple ID is change here ----> https://appleid.apple.comI don't think anyone can reset the device, other than changing the chip maybe. That's the whole idea, to make the device as secure as possible.

It may be due to some apps in there was still tag to the purchased ID, which is the hotmail. Reach out for Apple support online for both issues I would suggest Our AASP here is not so “genius” if u would...
