Yes and this time do a Erase Content and All Settings in
Settings > General > Reset > Erase...
and configure iPhone as your own and not using somebody's Apple ID & password.

  • My Ipod Touch will not let me sign into my apple account without adding a credit card number

    I don't have a credit card, or a gift card; an when I go to download an app I log into my account; but it wont 'Fully' log me in until I press 'review', then it does the whole "Your credit card number is a required field". Thus resulting in me not being able to download my desired app, even though my account is verified on the sight ect. But even still, when I go to save my "billing" information on the sight, my "Credit card number" is STILL a required field..! I don't have a credit card..! So how can I download apps without a credit card..?

    Try logging into your account in iTunes on a computer and setting the payment method to None.
    Why can’t I select None when I edit my payment information?
    Last, contact iTunes.
    You can always
    Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before. Make sure you specify a birthdate that results in being at least 13 years old

  • Apple TV will not let me log into iTunes Store

    Hi, Any help appreciated! I have just purchased an Apple TV and it will not connect to my iTunes Store, it gives me the message "User Name or Password Incorrect" but they are NOT, I can log into the store through the Macbook without any problems, I have tried friends accounts and get the same message, Been on the phone to support for 2 hours NO HELP!

    Add me to the list. I just bought mine & can't log onto the Apple Store to rent/purchase. I can on my MBP.
    I've had the same thing happen when I tried to enter my YouTube username & password. It wouldn't accept it. I thought it was a fluke w/YouTube. Apparently not so.
    So, I can't buy or rent movies/TV shows. Exactly why do I want this gadget?
    How about an update on the Apple site that just recognizes these problems & promise a fix?

  • IPad will not let me sign into my Skype says does't recognize user name or password

      IPad will not. Recognize my Skype name or password

    Hello,
    This issue does not have anything to do with Apple. I would check out Skype's website for this information.

  • TS4268 ipad 1 will not let me sign into imessage.starts to verify and then goes right back to sign in.i tryed reseting network and apple id and no luck.help!!!

    anyone?

    Did you look through all of the suggestions in the troubleshooting article tht led you to this forum?
    When you said you reset the network does that mean your home network or network settings? If you didn't reset your router, try that next. Unplug it from power for about 30 seconds.
    Did you check Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>On?

  • HT4759 the system will not let me sign into an I cloud account

    I can log into my apple account, but i can not login to i cloud

    - Try contacting iTunes for the password problem:
    Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us
    - For the other problem you can try a reset. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - The next standard thing to do is to download/install a new app but you cant 'do that.
    - Instead, try restoring from backup.

  • Using firefox will not let me sign into revel

    while using elements12, firefox wont let me accces my revel account to upload to an album. It states the security certificate is not valid and warns me not to sign in...this has happened in the last 2 days. can someone let me know what to do?

    Since you mention firefox I assume you're trying to login to the website. Can you try logging in at https://www.adoberevel.com -- we recently discovered an issue with our certificate that prevents a redirect from "https://adoberevel.com" to the "www" version, and would lead to a certificate warning like you're describing.  If you're still seeing a certificate issue at "https://www.adoberevel.com", can you let us know what OS you're on and make sure that you've installed the latest OS updates.  While unlikely, this could indicate something malicious, so definitely don't log in unless the warning goes away -- if it's still there we'll want to get some additional details for our security team.
    Thanks, and I hope this helps!

    FIrst try a soft reset by holding down the home & sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo appears then let go & let the iPad boot up normally. 
    If that doesn't help then to make sure you have a strong internet connection.
    Try resetting Network Settings
    Settings->General->Reset->Reset Network Settings,
    You won't lose any data but will have to log back into your wifi networks.
    Once logged back in and when the pop-up appears, try entering your password again.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Go to the 'Go' menu in the Finder and hold down the option key to reveal the Library. Then navigate to library > preferences > system configuration and drag the 'Networkinterfaces.plist' file to the trash and restart for mac. Now try again.

  • My Iphone 4S keeps flashing between the Apple logo, blank screen and sign in.  It will not let me sign in, nor can I power it off.  Help!

    My Iphone 4S keeps flashing between the Apple logo, blank screen and sign on screen.  It will not let me sign on or power off.  It started about 20 mins ago.  One of my friends started having the same issue at the same time.  How can I fix this?

    Hi Bucky16,
    If you haven't already done so, you may want to reset the iPhone:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
    If the above does not resolve your issue, the next best step will be to restore your iPhone using a computer with iTunes:

  • I changed emails.  My user ID will not let me get into my phone to do any updates, but the user id is associated with an email address that no longer exists

    I changed emails.  My user ID will not let me get into my phone to do any updates, but the user id is associated with an email address that no longer exists

    What a mess the Apple ID, and associating emails, ID etc has got itself in
    I have a new iPad but after 2 days of trying all sorts still can't sync it because it is says it is associated to the other via the iCloud
    I can't use my alternate email address to setup a new Apple ID account as it says it's already used or associated, but I haven't knowingly done anything
    One message says "This email address is already in use or you may already have an Apple ID associated with this email address. Please try again or sign in using your existing Apple ID."
    I am at a complete loss on what to do

    Download them to iTunes abd then sync the apps. Make an appointment with Apple and see what the problem is.
