APPLE WON'T GIVE WIDOW HER LATE HUSBAND'S PASSWORD

All Peggy Bush wants to do is play card games on her late husband’s iPad – but Apple won’t give the password to her. David Bush died of lung cancer in August, and the couple owned both an iPad and an Apple computer. Bush, 72, said she knows the iPad’s log-in code, but doesn’t know the Apple ID password. When the tablet’s card game app stopped working, she tried to reload it, but realized it couldn’t be done without the password. She called Apple, and they said they’d need to see the will and the death certificate. Peggy produced the documents, along with the iPad serial number. That’s when Apple told her she needed a court order. Peggy’s daughter, Donna Bush, says they’ve been able to transfer the title of the house, transfer the car, they got the pensions and benefits from the federal government. But from Apple, they can’t get a password. Apple suggested opening a new account, but added they’d have to pay all new fees. Donna’s last resort is to write a letter to Apple’s CEO Tim Cook about their “ridiculous” situation.
* I think we know why Mr. Bush didn’t give his wife the password. Right, gentlemen?
* Come to think of it, I’m not sure I buy her story about just wanting to play card games.
* Find a 12-year-old kid. He’ll have it hacked in ten minutes.
* Sure the federal government cooperated. But you’re messing with APPLE here!
* Get Taylor Swift on it. She made Apple backdown before.
* Okay, give her the password but don’t be surprised if she finds out some stuff she doesn’t want to know.
* And then she’ll really want to sue Apple.
* I think what Apple is saying is that he’s still alive in cyberspace and that’s all that matters.
