Hi There!
I want to first say thanks for all of the helpful tips thus far in this thread, but I am still coming across the same difficulties, despite several attempts to correct it. Does anyone have any other ideas of how to right this "Too Many Retries..., Login Later..." with regard to AIM. My other accounts work fine, and my AIM acct works from the AIM site, so it seems to be an iChat issue. Any help would be great!
Thanks,
Mike

Go to icloud.com from your computer and sign into your account. Any iCloud data you see there will sync to your new phone when you sign into your account.
Also, if you have a recent backup of your phone, restore that backup to your new phone when you get it to transfer your data, settings, apps and other purchased media. More details here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2109.

My iPad will not let me log into iTunes because it says that there is an un excepted server, and I don't know what to do

Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it jiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then restart the app and see if it works normally.

Photoshop Elements will not let me log in with my Adobe account.

I have had no issue installing, activating, and logging in with the Adobe Premiere Elements program. However, when trying to log in to Adobe on Photoshop Elements, a window pops up and says that there is no internet connect (when obviously there is) or my computer time has been set wrong (which I triple checked). I have no idea why it will not let me log in.

Are you seeing a login screen that looks like this?

Yes.
Password doesn't work?
If so, try resetting it. If the computer is having any other problem, take it to the Apple store to have it checked out.
Reset Password starting from Recovery HD
Start the computer,then press and hold down command and R keys to start into recovery partition.
When you see the Apple logo, release the keys.
Wait until OS X Utilities window shows up.
Move the mouse to the menubar at the top and click "Utilities", then select "Terminal"
from the drop down.
Terminal window will appear.
Type in resetpassword and press enter on the keyboard.
Leave the Terminal window open.
Reset Password Utility window will open with Macintosh HD selected.
Select the user account from the popup menu box.
Enter a new password.
Reenter the new password for the user.
Enter a hint.
Click the "Save" button.
Click  in the menubar and select Restart.
Log in.
If Keychain dialog box appears, select “Create New Keychain”.
Best.

Macbook Pro will not let me log on.

I have been having problems with my Macbook Pro. It is only 6 months old and it will not let me log onto my account. I would type in my password and it would freeze and go back to the log in page several times. How can I fix this? Also, it has been running slow and the spinning rainbow wheel pops up much for frequently now. Any suggestions on how to fix this? Thanks

6 months old ?
See what Apple can do for you. Contact them.

Mac will not let me log in to user account

Two days in a row, my Mac (2 x 2,93 /ghz 6-Core Intel Xeon) (64 GB 1333 MHz DDR3) will not let me log in to my user account. I used to turn my computer off every day, but the tech guys told me I need to leave it on all the time. Please note: I am the one responsible for fixing this computer. I ran Disk Warrior this morning and repaired the disk permissions. Disk Warrior found a few corrupt things like .plist files which couldn't be repaired. I deleted them, however there seem to be a lot of things in the disk permissions some of which couldn't be repaired. Anyone have any ideas.

Your GMail email is on Google's server, so you should find the same messages there that you saw before. However, any bookmarks, saved passwords, etc. that you did not sync with Weave or another solution that backs up your settings to some place on the web would need to be rescued from your old computer.

What encryption are you using on the router?
If WEP you have to set the router to use the first key and you have to enter the first key as the password on the iPod. See:

My older macbook will not let me log on to the different profiles

My MacBook will not let me log in to my different profiles. This is a school computer and several kids have profiles. The list of names comes up, but it will not more forward. If I put a cd in the drive it wakes it up and moves along. Any suggestions.

Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
If 10.7.0 or later...
Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
