The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required
If you do not have that information you will not be able to use the Device.

I tried to follow the instruction of buying iphone apps without a credit card. I follow the steps and I selected United States, but when I fill up the credit card info, i could not find the word "None". Anyone know what should I do?
When you tried to contact Support with the card's images how were you trying to do it, on your phone or a browser on your computer ? And have you tried a different browser to see if you get the same error message ?
As well as images of the card they might also want an image of its receipt.
And to contact Support you were using : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ , and clicked on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then iTunes Cards And Codes ? -
my iphone 4 i bought was jailbroken to ios 6.0.1 redsn0w but i tried to restore the iphone and now it keeps saying connect to itunes but when i connect and try to restore an "unknown error" occurs and it will not boot up whatsoever. please help!
If you want to solve your problems, unjailbreak. And don't do it again, because jailbreaking causes problems as you read about in that article. You can try Recovery Mode: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

Whiling syncing my ipod all of my music and pictures were cleaned out and now my ipod is not recognized my itunes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes and it didn't help. Any suggestions?
What shows up on the iPod's display when you have it connected to your PC? Have you tried resetting the iPod with it still connected? To this, press and hold both the Select/Center and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
Otherwise, try rebooting your PC, opening iTunes, and then reconnecting your iPod to a high powered USB 2.0 port.

Install rapidweaver and now can't open it because my apple user id password is not recognized
I installed rapid weaver and now when I go to open the application, I get a message stating this product was purchased using App Store on another computer. To install "Rapidweaver" on this computer, sign in using the Apple ID and password used to purchase it. When I enter my password I get a message stating: Your password is not recognized.
Hi 25091996,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.

I have just got a new password and my partner has my old one. I loaded several apps onto my new Ipad. I now have an update on my Oxford Dictionary App. It will not update using my new ID and password and will not update using my former ID and password. All I get is "cannot connect to Itune Store. If I delete App and reinstall under new name - no problem with other apps- but I don't want to pay another $59.00 for the Dictionary. How do I get Itune store to allow the update?
Purchases are tied to the Apple ID they were purchased with. If you use a new ID, you have to buy again.

There no way around that without the previous owner's AppleID and password.
It is totally worthless to you. Return it an get your money back.

I recently changed my Apple ID (to my new email address), but my iPhones are still showing my old Apple ID and are asking for my old password. It no longer exists and now I can not add any Apps or get into iCloud because they previous ID no longer exists but that is what is popping up in Apple ID box and I cannot change it on the phone. How do I get my new Apple ID assigned to my phone(s)?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
If it's iCloud that is asking for these details:
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.
This article provides more information about Activation Lock.
If it's iTunes asking for these details:
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too. -
I upgraded from OSX10.5.8 to 10.9.1 but now my main application Filemaker pro 7 does not work and I get a message that it is not supported. Can someone advise or help?
FileMaker Pro 7 was released in 2004 so it is a PPC application, which means it will never run under Mavericks. Latest version of FileMaker is 13. Try a free trial version by downloading from here. See the Trial software area near the bottom.
Best of luck. -

Switched from Podpress to Powerpress and now feed is not updating in iTunes - Please help
Please help...at my wit's end!
A few days ago I switched from using Podpress to Powerpress for my podcast. I followed all instructions and my feed appears to be valid. However, my podcast is not updating in iTunes at all and when I tried to resubscribe, I got an error message that said that there are no playable episodes.
Please, please...someone help. I really don't know what else to do and trying to get support from Apple or Blubrry has been fruitless.
My feed is: http://www.surrealla.com/feed/podcast/
Thank you!Hi Roger,
Well, I was unable to locate the old feed (I don't even know if it exists in the conventional way, since it was set up by Podpress), and attempted to remove my podcast completely from iTunes in order to start fresh. Unfortunately, it appears as though iTunes no longer does this and instead directs you to add a <block> tag to your feed....and around we go.
So I've pleaded via Express Lane to please, please have someone change my feed to the new http://www.surrealla.com/feed/podcast/ ...that old feed should have never been set up that way in the first place. Argh.
Question: Can I resubmit my podcast to iTunes without deleting the old one? I'd hate to do that...seems tacky...but I have no idea what else to do if the pleading doesn't work.
Thank you again - you've been so helpful! -

If you cannot get this information from the seller
Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
You need to return the Device for a refund, as you will not be able to re-activate it. -
I bought unlocked iphone 6 in one store in UAE dubai. When i open the sim card slot there is an verizon simcard inside. I'm just a little bit worried if the iphone i have now is a second hand or what. Any idea? Thanks.
It's A1549 model. Yeah i knew this is US version before i buy this. What i'm confusing now do u think this iphone i bought is a brand new one and why there is a sim card already inside the simcard slot? Even its working smoothly using a network in UAE. Some of my friends bought there US version of iphone but they bought it without simcard inside the sim card slot.

I originally bought an iMac 17 which crashed. Have now bought a second-hand iMac20. This has less preinstalled software, no iDVD, no iPhoto, Garageband, no iWeb. Can I use my original discs to restore these options to my new computer? Problems with this?
You might be able to depending on the age of the disc and the model of your newer used iMac. Only way to tell is to pop in the DVD and see if you can install the iLife programs.
