I posted a few weeks ago about my dad's i pad that is now locked and cannot be unlocked as my dad died a few years ago but what I want to know is what do I now do with his i pad now I can no longer use it

Make an appointment with a Genius at your nearest Apple store"A nation's greatness is measured by how it treats its weakest members." ~ Mahatma Gandhi

I spoke to Apple and I can't access the ipad as it mysteriously locked itself saying the owner had used "find my phone" so the device is locked and I don't have my dad's password to unlock it nor a computer that I can access my i tunes account, I haven't tried going into my local Apple store but the apple helpline said that I wouldn't be able to use it anymore hence the reason I am asking what to do with it - I kind of meant to dispose of itThe mind is like a parachute.

You could possibly sell it for spares and repairs on ebay or similar.
But to be honest, with it being locked, everyone is just going to presume it's stolen
Its one for the bin I fear

they could always put a hoody on and try and sell it for a quick £100 down the local pub no questions asked
