Do i lose redeemable vouchers if i delete id and start again

I have loaded a redeemable voucher onto my apple id but because i cannot remember my security questions answers i cannot use the voucher to purchase apps. will i lose the voucher if i delete the original apple id and creaqte a new one. i cannot get support from apple in south africa and the uk suppoort did not help me.

You can't delete an account, and the balance and all purchases that you made on that account will remain tied to that account
Do you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account ? If you do then the steps half-way down this page should let you reset them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
If not, and as Saouth Africa isn't listed on this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699, you could try contactig support via this link, explaining that you've forgotten your answers, don't have a rescue email address, and your country, South Africa, isn't on the HT5699 page :

  • I changed my AppleID/Password and now am locked out of iCloud. iCloud says maximum number of free accounts have been activated. tried Settings, Mail etc but iCloud does not appear. I was going to delete it and start again.

    Had to change Apple ID/Password recently now cannot access iCloud. In settings when tapping iC, log in screen appears with old ID and request for (old) password.
    In Settings  Mail, Contacts etc iCloud does not appear. I was going to delete account.
    Trying new ID/Password message appears "maximum no. of free accounts have been activated".
    Using old ID/Password message apperas "you can,t sign in because account was disabled for security reasons ......reset password at iforgot.apple.com which i did.
    Can anybody help please??

    Hi,
    I tried to log in to iCloud but a message appears telling me I "can't sign in because my account was disabled for security reasons....reset password at iforgot.apple.com". I don't know why this happened.
    I reset both my Apple ID and password.
    When I tap Settings iCloud is listed on the left side between General and Mail, Contacts etc.
    Tapping iCloud brings up a log in screen for iCloud which shows my old Apple ID and requests the password. If I put the password in I get the message as above.
    If I use the new Apple ID/Password I get the message "the maximum number of free accounts have been activated....
    In settings there is no option to "Delete Account"
    Any suggestions??

  • Made a mess of importing - can I delete all and start again?

    Mac newbie. I have all my photos safely stored on an external hard drive in a folder structure such as Asia/Country/city, etc.
    I just got a Mac. Looked at but didn't want to use iPhoto, so d/l Aperture.
    I imported one city folder with "automatically split projects" ticked (it was default) and got hundreds of projects - one for each day I took photos, I think. I need an easy way to clear them out/delete so I can import correctly.
    Suggestions? I've since d/l the pdf manuals from Apple and I promise to read them :>

    The default setting on import is to move the masters into the Aperture library. If you had this set then the masters you imported were moved into the library and when you deleted them from Aperture you may have deleted your only copy of the masters.
    IYou should check you original directory to see if those masters are still there. If you haven't yet empty the system trash yet they will be there.

  • HT201250 I've just used an external drive to back up my Mac with Time Machine. I have Lion, but didn't click and check the "Encrypt Backup Disc". What should I do? Can I delete the external drive and start again, or can I encrypt later?

    I've just used an external drive to back up my Mac with Time Machine. I have Lion, but didn't click and check the "Encrypt Backup Disc". What should I do? Can I delete the external drive and start again, or can I encrypt later?

    I guess if stolen or lost it would protect my "stuff", and if I'm travelling would protect my privacy.
    You must understand the purpose and implications of encryption before deciding whether to use it.
    Encryption locks your data with a password. If you forget that password, the data is lost beyond any chance of recovery. Neither Apple nor anyone else will be able to help you recover that data if you don't know the password.
    By the same token, the password must be strong enough to provide the security you want. For example, if you're the potential target of industrial espionage by a government or large corporation, you need the strongest possible password. To create and manage such a password safely is a task in itself, not to be undertaken lightly.
    If you're only concerned about casual snooping by someone with no special skill, a weak, easily-remembered password is appropriate.
    But regardless of the strength of the password, if you lose it, the data is gone forever.
    Another point to remember is that if you encrypt your data on one storage device, you must also encrypt it on all other storage devices that would be accessible to the same attacker. Otherwise the data isn't protected. For example, if you keep your computer and your backup drive in the same room, and the internal drive of the computer is not encrypted, then there's no point in encrypting the backup drive.

  • HT201302 I am trying to upload pictures from my phone to my computer and I'm getting an error message that a photo is corrupted so it can't download.  I don't know how to tell which of the photos is corrupted so that I can delete it and try again?  Thanks

    If this is an iCloud account the Outbox only appears when sending an email, so if it is still trying I suppose it should be showing now (not sure though, hard to replicate this)
    What type of email account?

  • How to delete and start again?

    I've finished ripping my collection of 480+ CDs but I really think a big mistake I made was signing-up to Match before I'd finished. I've got various minor problems (such as mismatched art which won't synchronize) and some bigger problems (such as songs which just won't match nor upload) and I think the best thing is just clear everything from the iCloud and start again.
    So...how do you do this?
    My saviour might be my old Windows XP laptop.  It's running iTunes 11 but, unlike my Mac, it only sees my iCloud, ie there are no songs/albums on the PC, it streams everything. If I delete all the albums using that PC, will it essentially clear everything from my iCloud so I can start with Match afresh?
    There needs to be a way to wipe the slate clean, surely?

    Not sure Michael I think I might have cracked it, unless someone's got as far as I have and it turns out to be a red herring
    I did as I said in the last paragraph, ie I turned off iTunes Match on my Mac and my iPhone, logged into the PC which only streams via Match and deleted all the items (which of course said 'hide', not 'delete').  Back on my Mac, I logged out/in to iTunes, then turned on iTunes Match.  Looking at the 'Songs' view, the iCloud Status said 'Removed' on everything, which looked good to me!
    I went to 'Albums' view, hit Cmd + A, right-clicked a random album and selected "Add to iCloud". It now really does seem to be starting all over again with the scan/match/upload, so far having taken about 20 mins on Step 1 and it's about a third across, which is what I would expect if it was doing a proper full scan and not an incremental update. Going back to 'Songs' view now shows the iCould status on all items as 'Waiting'.
    I will keep this thread posted with the outcome.

  • My ipod thinks autosync means delete all and copy again :(

    everytime i connect my ipod nano to my pc it opens itunes, deletes all songs and copys them on the ipod again.
    Even if i dont change anything in itunes library and just restart/reconnect the ipod it will delete everything before syncing.
    why? how to solve that it only copys new songs? and not manually!
    thx
    nizzy

    I was having this SAME problem.....until yesterday....I was downloading more songs, and was all prepared for it to delete everything and start all over. I added songs to my existing playlist, and I FINALLY figured out that by keeping everything in one playlist...it will ONLY download the new songs and leave the other ones on there. You can tell what's happening by that bar on the bottom that tells you how much stuff is on your Ipod. I tried this several times, just to make sure I wasn't imagining things, and it's WORKING. Before, I didn't know what to do, so I made a new playlist everytime I download something, which is why it would delete the stuff I already had on there.
    I hope I didn't confuse you....let me clarify. I have a playlist called Kelly's Ipod selection. everytime I download something, it gets added to that playlist. Then, I click the ipod and choose "download selected playlists". and then it will only download songs that aren't already on the ipod.
    I'm SOOO happy I figured this out. I got my ipod for Christmas and was getting really frustrated with it, and put off downloading more music because I just didn't want to deal with it. I used to use a sandisk sansa mp3 player and never had any problems adding songs. I figured this out by pure luck. And now I can actually ENJOY my ipod.
    Hope this helps.

  • Can I delete photos app and start again? How?

    Ok, I've been really daft and did not ever know that there was a photo trash can in iPhoto. So for years in iPhoto I've been deleting or rather just removing photos and not thinking much of it.
    Just did my mac updates and notice I now have Photo. Open up and wow I now have 100s of photos that I thought I had deleted, some years ago.
    With over 16,000 photos in total this is not a job I want to go through sifting and deleting the rubbish again. 
    I opened my time machine but can't work out how to go back. Is there any way of wiping photo and then starting again? It didn't ask me about importing or merging from iPhoto it seemed to have done it on its own. If the photos are still in iPhoto can I delete photo and reinstall after fixing the issue in iPhoto?
    Afraid to do something and mess it up further and so looking for advice from someone who actually knows what they are doing!
    Thank you!

    You can't delete the Photos app as it's part of the system.  You can continue to use iPhoto and your iPhoto library.  The iPhoto app is still in the Applications folder. If it's iPhoto 9.6.1 it will work with 10.10.3. If it's not try getting 9.6.1 from the App Store following Terence Devlin's instructions below:

    Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
    If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
    Install the App from the App Store.
    Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.
    Regarding the "deleted" photos did you systematically empty the iPhoto Trash bin each time you delete photos?

    How do I delete itunes and completely start over but not lose the money on card?

    You do not loose money on your account even if you uninstall iTunes. However, if you create an entirely new account, the store credits will not be transferred over.

  • How can I delete all music files from my iPhone and start again?

    I rebuilt my iTunes library. I was under the impression that the first post-rebuild sync would erase all media from my iPhone.
    Under the Summary tab in iTunes, I checked Sync only checked songs and videos, and in my music list all songs are unchecked.
    Under the Music tab in iTunes, I checked Sync Music, and because all my songs are unchecked it shows 0 songs.
    However, after syncing, the status bar at the bottom of the Music tab still shows all my songs previously loaded as taking up memory, and when I open the Music app on my iPhone all those songs are still listed (although they are not playable).
    How can I clear everything out and start from scratch?

  • HT2905 How do I delete songs on my IPod Shuffle and start again?

    I noticed that I have the same songs on my IPod Shuffle 4th generation, how can I delete all from my IPOD and redownload again?

    This procedure applies if you are loading songs manually, not using automatic syncing.
    First, if the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is not visible, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.
    Connect the shuffle and find it listed in the sidebar, under DEVICES.  Click on the small triangle to the left of the shuffle, to drop down its content list, indented below the shuffle.  Click on Music there.  To the right, the list of songs currently on the shuffle is shown.  Select the song you want to remove on the list and press DELETE on the keyboard.  You can do this with multiple songs selected.  If you want to remove ALL song from the shuffle, do a Select All (from the menu bar or right click).

  • Delete Vendor and replicate again in SRM

    Dear all Experts,
    I got a problem that after transfer 1400 vendors into SRM. there are only part of vendor can be replicated successfully. ( around 600 ).  however, user check that some of vendor are missing in SRM. 
    I found the reason that is vendor master in ECC haven't create puschasing view at that time. as result, it created a dummy business number in SRM.
    There are some shopping cart already create part of vendors which transfered from ECC6.0.
    I feel exhaused that to find which one is successfully transfer into SRM within 1400 vendors master ,
    Therefore, I want to delete all/whole vendor master and replicate again.  But Just thinking any side effect to existing shopping cart.
    or is there any table I can directly check which vendor is assigned correctly and work properly in SRM?
    is there any suggestion, please kindly let me know.
    thanks for all.
    Best Regards
    marco

    Hello Marco,
    Have a look at tables :
    - VENMAP (mapping between partner GUID > R/3 vendors)
    - BUT000 (Business Partner)
    - BUT100 (Business Partner roles).
    You can create a query to do your checks.
    Regards.
    Laurent.
