iCloud now insisting on previous Apple id. Cannot log in.
Will not accept new id and emails old id – a closed email account – with info.  How do I fix?

If the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID.  Then you can go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your ID back to the way it was.

  • I lost my iphone in the water I bought a new one 4S now I have 2 back ups in Icloud, the one for the new Iphne and the old Iphone where I have the most info I need. How I can download my old backup?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    You cannot download a backup from iCloud, the only way to access it is to restore to the backup with your new phone, which you should have done when you first connected it. If you restore now, you will lose all the new information you have added to your new phone.

    Actually you always use ethernet..
    MBA does not come with ethernet port.. but apple sells both a cheap usb to ethernet and a much more expensive and much faster thunderbolt to ethernet adapter. With ethernet to eliminite this silly situation of setting up wireless over wireless, so if you make any change you instantly drops you off the network. Like cartoons of people sawing off the branch they are sitting on.
    But you can reset.. no reset will do anything at all to the material on the hard disk. You must deliberately erase it.
    Read the info because you may only need to do a soft reset. That is hold the reset for 1sec (2-3sec is fine)  as long as you don't hold it for a full reset.

    Even a full factory reset will not harm your files in any way, (or any further!!)
    I am "concerned" that you have no backup to vital files on your TC. That is not wise. TC are no more immune to failure than any other hard disk.. (actually latest ones use the cheapest green WD drives money can buy) and keeping files in only one location is a receipe for disaster. An external drive is much more accessible.. cheaper and tend to be more reliable. There are too many things to break in the TC.. it is designed as a backup target for TM. Not a file store.

  • My Ipad was upgraded and now when I open a book in Kindle it will not open the book and just takes me back to the opening screen of my IPAD. This happen after a upgrade to some IOS. Help.

    My IPAD was upgraded and now when I open a book in Kindle it will not open and reverts back to opening screen of the IPAD and this occurred after some upgrade with IOS.Help.
    Thanks

    The app may not be iOS6 compatible. Have you tried to reset it? HOld down the sleep and home keys, past when you see the red slider, and unitl you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and see if that helps. If it doesn't, then I'd contact Kindle and see when they're going to update their app or if they even know there's an issue. Unfortunately, the burden is on app developers to be compatible with the operating system, not on the OS to be compatible with millions of apps. So it's up to them.

  • TS1424 My account will not accept any payment information. It says there was a problem with a previous purchase ! Any idea what I can do????

    iTunes account says. "Problem with precise purchase".  Will not accept any payment method!  Any help?????

    it means you have a past balance due to apple
    see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2727?viewlocale=en_US
    redeem a gift card in itunes store for more than the balance you owe. Then you can enter your cc info

  • TS3988 My Apple TV will not accept my password and says that terms in the iCloud have change.....I can not photostream anymore...help....!

    Any suggestions????

    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Source list, and then click Restore.
    If when you choose restore you get a message that the device cannot be found, download the file below
    Apple TV Software Restore 5.1.1 (2nd generation)
    Apple TV Software Restore 5.1.1 (3rd generation)
    Then hold down the option key while choosing restore and select the downloaded file when prompted.

  • Why can I sign into Apple with my Apple ID, but my phone does not accept my ID  and says it isn't correct. it

    Question

    Is there a "I forgot my password" option anywhere? If so, I would enter your email address and then click that option. That way, they'll email you your password and you can use that to access the account and see what's going on.
