I used my apple ID for my daughters new iPod and now we have the same number! Please help
I just started up my daughters new iPod and use my apple id and now we have the same number! How do I change this on my daughters iPod? I want her to be able to use my apple ID but I'd like her to have her own number... Is this possible?
Create a new ID for her:
On the iPod go to
- Settings>Messages>Send and receive and sign out your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that only her ID email address is listed.
- Settings>FaceTime sign out of your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that under You can be reached at only her ID email address is listed
- Settings>iCloud and sign out and sign in with hers
Continue to use the common ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores.

My dad and i share the same apple ID and now we have the same contacts. Help please
When my dad got a new phone he got all of my contacts because we have the same apple ID so how do i get my contacts off of his phone and also if he deletes one of my contacts off of his phone it gets deleted off of my phone. Can someone help me? Thank you
To fix this, one of you needs to migrate to a new, separate, iCloud account. To do this, start by saving any photo stream photos you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow, then tapping Save to Camera Roll. If you are syncing notes with iCloud, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud), choose Keep on My iDevice and provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone. Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload your data.
Once you are on separate accounts, you can each go to icloud.com from your computer and delete the other person's data from your account. -

My IPOD needed repairing, so I backed up my personal data into a restore file. In the end my ipod was exchanged for a brand new one and now I am having difficulty with restoring all of my data that I saved.
While trying to restore through iTunes I keep gettingthe corrupt or not compatible error message. Does anyone have any ideas or experience with this issue?
Much Appreciated for any help!You can not restorea a backup made with a newer version of iOS to a phone with an older version of iOS.
1400 photos stored on the phone? Do you not EVER extract them? The camera roll is intended to be temporary storage. Like the SD card in a digital camera. You should be extracting them to your computer on a regular basis.
Contacts should be synced to a compatible contact manager or cloud service. If you were not doing any of these things, guard your backups with your life and make sure your computer is being backed up on a regular basis, because you won't be able to get them back until you get a new phone with at least the same version of iOS that your 4 had.
There are 3rd party applications that say they can extract this information from a backup file, but I don't have personal experience with them. -
we are trying to open a apple ID acc for my daughters IPod touch.I have a apple ID acc with my IPhone. It wont let us us use the same email ( she doesnt have one) but wont let us us a fake one. What do we do?
The only way to get an apple ID is to have an email account you've never used before. The only thing you can do is make her an email.

I just got an iPhone 5S, now when I try to use my old iPad the apps won't work because they are syncing with my new phone. Can I have the same account for an old iPad and a new iPhone?
Connect your iPad to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and “ Check for Updates “...
If an Update Appears Install it... if not... you are up to date for your particular Device...
See the Using iTunes Section Here...

Make sure you have the Latest Version of iTunes (v11) Installed on your computer

I recently tried to use Photoshop CS4 that I have on my computer but I get the message:"Licensing for this product has stopped working." I have the serial number but not the media. How can I use this version?
You can get the installer here: Download CS4 products
It will install as a fully functional 30 day trial. Entering your serial number will convert it to a permanent version, Standard or Extended, depending on what serial number you purchased.
If you still have the license problem. get back to me with your OS details and the error code.

I use MB pro running Lion OSX 10.7.5 and Now I have bought MB Air with Mountain Lion,Can I transfer my MB Pro stuff running Lion to MB air running Mountain Lion or do I need to buy Mountain Lion for my Pro and create a backup and then transfer ,Although I want Mountain Lion for my MB Pro but can I use the one from MB Air,thnx?
Hello,
If you just do a normal time machine backup on your macbook pro and then plug that harddrive into your new air; you should be able to just use migration assistant to transfer all your files. You wouldnt need to upgrade to mountain lion on your macbook pro.
Hope it helps,

hi.. i forgot my apple id and password.. i cant activate my ipod touch..
but here's the serial number, *************** please help me.. thanks
<Edited by Host>We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple - I've asked the hosts to remove your iPod's serial number address from your post.
Only you can activate your iPod by typing in your id and password, or you can remove a device from your account via http://icloud.com . If you can't remember your account id then do you have any of its downloads on your computer's iTunes : Recovering a forgotten iTunes Store account name ? If not then you could try http://iforgot.apple.com . You can also reset your password via the 'iforgot' site, or you can contact Support in your country and they should be able to reset your password (as long as you can prove your id and that it's your account) : Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security
iOS 7 and activation lock : iCloud: Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7
What if I forget my Apple ID password?
If you forget your password, you can reset it at My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com) or by contacting Apple Support and verifying your identity. Once your password has been reset, it will work normally with Find My iPhone and Activation Lock.
If you forget your password and cannot reset it, you will lose access to your Apple ID and may be unable to use or reactivate your device. To help prevent this, visit My Apple ID periodically to review and update your account information. -
I'm trying to find my iPad but I'm traveling and don't have the serial number. I cannot figure out how to use my iPhone to locate it. Can anyone assist?
Download the Find My iPhone app from the App Store to your iPhone.
Then, launch the app, log in with the Apple ID & password used for your iPad.
Note that unless you had enabled the FMiP function on the iPad under Settings > iCloud, you will not be able to track the device. -
my ipad2 is asking old id password, when i go to forget password link for that id then I am not getting any mail to reset the same. Please help how can i remove or change the old id.
You cannot remove or change the old ID. This is Find My iPhone Activation Lock. You need to recover the credentials for the Apple ID originally used to activate the iPad.
Check your spam and junk folders. -
I don't remember my password and one of the security questions for my account. I also don't have the same email account now as i did when I signed up.
I want to figure out my old password and/or change the new email to my current one.
thanksYou can try getting the password reset via this page : http://iforgot.apple.com
If you can't then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the password and your questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address to your account for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 -
My Ipod was originally set up as a sub-account of a firends. After that, I got an Iphone and set up my own Apple account. I just got a new Ipod, and now can't sync my old Itunes to it. Can anyone help me? I'm even OK with deleting the old Itunes account, and staring over. I just really want to get the new Ipod under my own account, and be able to use it...
There is no such thing as a "sub-account." Also, you probably mean iTunes library, when you say "account." Your "account" in iTunes is your Apple ID, which is what you use to sign in to the iTunes Store to make purchases. iPods are associated with an iTunes library, not with an Apple ID (iTunes Store account). You'll need to clarify...
So, this is what I think you are saying. You previously shared an iTunes library on a computer with your friend. Your old iPod was synced to that iTunes library.
You got an iPhone, and at that time, you set up your own iTunes library. Is that on a different computer? How does the iPhone affect your question about the iPod?
You got a new iPod. What is your "old iTunes"? Is that the iTunes library you shared with your friend?
