Sorry Justine! but you will not be able to remove the account unless you can get information from the original owner.

Hey! sorry but you will need to enter that appleID password to reactive the iPad. If you still have the original receipt you can call apple and have them start the recovery process.

you bought a parts ipad --if icloud locked only owner of it can clear it -the following link helps with cloud locks but would need all the information from original owner

plug it into a laptop/pc with itunes on . itunes will detect it and you can do a reset from there . if you got the ipad 2nd hand you might need an icloud account and pass word from previous owner or get them to take the ipad off there icloud account.

there is no way to take the icloud lock off . if it is not your account then the phone is worthless as the only way you can get it back on is to enter the name and password of the icloud account its attached to. even apple wont take it off for you

You have setup an iTunes account with Apple. When you connect the iPad to iTunes, (WiFi or via computer) they ask you the password for your iTunes account. If you forgot that one, Apple can send you an reset code to the mail address connected to the Apple account. (Not the iCloud mail)
If nothing works, goto the closest Apple store and take your invoice with you and an ID card, to prove you are the legal owner, perhaps they can help you.
