Send it to Hillary. She can wipe it clean. Like she did at the debate, on the toilet.

Give it a ‘220 volt charge till you smell it cooking and tell apple it just stopped working. They’ll give you a new one.

Apple sometimes stocks referbs. These would have been sold new, opened, and then returned for whatever reason within the first two weeks. Apple does a complete checkout of these items and warrents them like new. Not as cheap as used, but you can be assured hey are not stolen!

Hold the 2 buttons down simultaneously for about 30 seconds. That should unlock it.

That worked for me when mine locked up inexplicably several months ago. Has not happened since.

If it is offering the PW screen, then a methodical approach will eventually unlock it, though time consuming.

If your mother updated the OS in the past couple years, it now requires a pin code, even if you don't use it. Whenever you restart the device, you have to enter the pin, and you have to use the pin for resetting. That is probably what happened.

You should ask her to think if that may have happened, and if so, she may be able to remember what pin code she used. Think about birthdays or other numbers she may have used. 0000 and 1234 are very common. Hopefully, you can figure it out. If you can't figure it out, read this:

A copy of RedSnow and data cable hooked to your computer should allow you to do a reset
