Before You Sell Your iPad Retina Display

Before You Sell iPad Retina Display: Erase The Device

You can configure your iPad with Retina Display to erase itself after ten consecutive incorrect password attempts. This setting can be turned on by tapping Settings > General > Passcode Lock. In fact, this option is set to off by default. If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your iPad with Retina Display. In this case, you’ll have to use the computer with which you last synced it.

This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device, or restore from a backup. If you restore on a computer that was never synced with your iPad with Retina Display, you will be able to unlock the device and remove the passcode.

What To Do Before You Sell An iPad with Retina Display:

Before you sell your iPad with Retina Display, protect your personal data. Make sure that you’ve removed all of your personal information. Restore the device to its factory default state for the new owner.

Back up the iPad with Retina Display that you are selling. Sign out of iCloud. Erasing your device will turn off iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, Game Center, and other services. After you erase the iPad, you’ll need to wait 24 hours before you can activate iMessage on your new device.

If you want to sell your iPad with Retina Display, keep in mind that we buy even broken iPads. We’ll pay cash even for soaked or plain dead iPads.

Before you sell your old iPad with Retina Display, contact your carrier for guidance on transferring service to the new owner. You’ll then get help transferring service. When the new owner turns on the device for the first time, Setup Assistant will guide them through the setup process.
