I found a MacBook Pro on the ground.

The asshole who dropped it locked it with iCloud. Any way around this shit? I can't boot to recovery. Always get the padlock. Image related.

Seems as though I would have to call Apple and give them the serial number simply to return this idiots computer. You'd do that?

>>60993119

>>60992981
The owner must've missed the trash can. Toss it in there for them.
>>
Im gonna use a service to do it. All of you can suck my ass.
>>
>>60992981 (OP)
here's what you do to unlock it. you can't, give it back and say you're sorry for being a thieving niBBa
>>
>>60992981
Return it, D'Quan
>>
what does CMD + Shift + R on boot do?

What happens if you replace the HDD?

What happens if you open it up, remove the removeable parts, leave it for a year to kill the battery to those removed parts and then reasemble?

brainlet, so these are my brainlet suggestions.

I removed the SSD and it the option key still comes up to a padlock page. It's a firmware password. I'm gonna pay someone to do it I don't have time for this shit. And fuck all of you idiots who say you would return it you're all full of shit.
>>
Eh, probably has enough money.

Cant you switch the HDD on a pro?

>i am a thieving nigger and need to justify it to myself by asserting that everyone on /g/ is a sticky-pawed Jamal, as well!

>Gee I have loads of money

>>60993679

It's pretty banged up. If I had to guess I'd say it fell off the roof of a car or out of someone's back pack.

Du'qual Latarius Jackson there's no such service. Anyone telling you they can break it for a fee is scamming you.
>>
>>60993022
you don't even have to do that much, the monkeys will just unlock it for you

you can not unlock it from home without the iCloud account, but you can take it to the apple store and explain your situation and they will unlock it
>>
>>60993487
Karma is gonna fuck you up, man. The universe knows of your misdeeds. At least TRY to redeem yourself before you regret it.

Also, peace to you.
>>
Ok guys I changed my mind. I'm gonna take it to the Apple store.
>>
Are (You) really this starved for attention?
>>
>>60993087
No need to be so upset that you stole a locked laptop. Should've done your research first.
>>
>>60992981
1. Stop being so fucking new
2. Apply kill to self
>>
why are these threads literally never deleted?

>>60993487
Kek you're going to get scammed retard
>>
>>60993795
But it's a Mac, they suck and have a real value of less than a Thinkpad

How can the laptop even lock if it isn't connected to the internet?

It only had to be connected for a split second. Macs phone home to Apple and the NSA every 100ms, didn't you know?
>>
>>60995640
Yeah but
>take laptop home
>no known networks to connect to
Would be extremely unlucky to be next to a house the laptop has the WiFi password for
