How can I identify the Apple Account linked to my iPad?

how do i find out which apple account is linked to my ipad, passcode i remember doesn't work, and i don't have access to computer at this moment to reset. Is there any option of resetting without computer, I tried those pressing buttons to hard reset but no luck.

The first letter and domain of the email address are shown.


Activation Lock is intended as a theft deterrent, and is intentionally difficult to bypass.


We can’t help bypass it, and — absent proof of ownership — Apple won’t


You will need to either regain access to the Apple Account, or provide proof of ownership sufficient to convince Apple of your ownership. That’s usually the original purchase receipt from Apple or an Apple Authorized Reseller.


Without that, recycle the iPhone, as it is not now and will never be useful.

Hi Beingrespectful! You can go to Settings, then apple account and it should show the emails and whatnot- If you don't know the passcode (I think you mean password but I could be mistaken) sadly without an mac or window with Itunes you can't do much so my best advice in this case is to reach out to an apple support staff and I'm sure they can help!


Sorry if this wasnt the answer you were looking for- I hope I helped you to the best of my abilities as I could.
