Unable to Set Up Account on Used Tablet

[haymeadowfield]

I bought a used Galaxy Tab E. The previous owner reset the tablet but did not remove the Google account. I can't get it set up now. Any ideas?

Remove the account yourself.

Go into settings >accounts > Google

Tap on three-dot menu at top right of screen, then tap 'remove account'. Or you could factory reset the tablet. If the previous account is still there, they didn't reset it.


Repeat the process if you see more accountsother than Google, like Yahoo etc.

She did a reset so I couldn't get into settings. After doing some research and a lot off trial and error I finally got this tablet setup with my account. It is working great.
