If your phone is broken how do you get the apple id off that phone?

if your iphone is broken how do you get the apple id off of it?

You can either,
A: Go to iForgot.apple.com and reset the passcode using the password system there, or by going to appleid.apple.com
or 
B: IF possible restore the device to factory settings via iTunes.
What's the xtent of the damage and the reason you need to do it?
IF it's for iMessage as "Chief501" you will have to go with Option A or just wait till it falls off itself.

    How can you get the apple tv to work in a hotel where to get on the wifi you have to still go to a website first and put in your room?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Unfortunately the Apple TV doesn't have a web browser so you can't do that.

  • How do you get the Apple Wireless Keyboard to accept function keys?

    I use the Apple Wireless Keyboard with my iPad2 and I use the VPN to connect to my work-related software which requires that I use some of the function keys as actual F1, F2, F3,...etc.  When I hit F2, the iPad2 responds with the Screen Brighter action.  How do I get the keyboard input to just be F2?  Thanks!

    Thanks. But I tried that and nothing happens.  I've looked though all the System Preferences sections and can't find anything on this.

  • How do you get the photos/videos off your iPod touch?

    Is it through itunes because I can't seem to figure it out. Would appreciate if someone can help me out with this.

    I'll solve my own (and others I'm sure) problem. The Appir iTouch iOS 4.1 .pdf manual was of no help as all it says is: "PC: Follow the instructions that came with your photo application." No help there.
    When you connect your iPod Touch 4th gen via USB, you should see it in the My Computer list of hard drives as a Digital Camera. You can open it up and see the camera files. Note: This in not the Photos as in the ones you put on your iPod via iTunes. Repeat: You cannot use iTunes to get the pictures & videos you take to your computer via iTunes. Strange.
    Also see Apple tech note: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1500 This is how to disable the popup that happens to many when you connect your iPod and Windows whats to know what application to run.
    For me, I could not delete the files nor could I Drag & Drop (Copy / Paste) all the files from the iPod to my PC. It would stop transferring data after about 750 files. So I had to find a solution. I searched for programs that supported WIA protocol, which is how files are transferred.
    I tried all of the apps at http://www.photo-freeware.net/transfer-tools.php and the only one that worked.
    That was Cam2PC. One problem I encountered was that after transferring, it opened a Preview window. Unfortunately it doesn't do Quicktime, so when trying to display a thumbnail view of movies, it crashed. You can configure it not to open the preview window after transferring.
    Another program to use is FastStone Image Viewer 4.2. No problems transferring or previewing. It doesn't show all files transferred when it opens it's preview window, notably Quicktime files. It does show screen dumps (.png) files. It is fast, small and so easy to use.
    At last but not least, Nikon ViewNX 2 software. It transfers fast, has many options. Just what you would expect from a digital camera company. It previews Quicktime but not screen dumps. Downside: The program takes longer to load than the others.
    So I'll be using FastStone Image Viewer 4.2 mostly. Hope the above helps out anyone that had the same problem as I did.

  • How do you get the apple remote to STOP always launching iTunes????

    After upgrading to Snow Leopard, I have discovered a few annoyances. The biggest one is that the Apple remote is always launching iTunes when I use it. Even when the Finder is not the target app.
    I have my entire Star Trek collection on a firewire drive, and I like using VLC to watch them because of the playlist feature. Every time I use the Apple remote to try to skip to the next episode, it launches iTunes and begins playing music. This NEVER happened before in Leopard or Tiger.
    I have gone through the iTunes preferences and also looked for some obscure system preference to deal with this issue, but so far, no luck.
    Again, the]is NEVER happened under previous operating systems, so I'm going to assume it's a glitch in Snow Leopard.
    Does anyone know what's happening here??
    Help me obi-wan.

    HI,
    Open System Preferences/Security and turn Disable remote control infrared receiver.
    You may have to click the gold padlock icon to do this. You will be prompted for your
    Admin password.
    Also, when you come across a "bug", report it to Apple.

    And it seems you are not alone...

    You can try to re "Pair' the remote also.
    To pair an Apple Remote with your computer:
    Hold the remote close to the computer (3 to 4 inches away) and point the remote at the front of the computer.
    Press and hold both the Menu and Next buttons on the remote until the paired-remote icon appears on your screen (about 5 seconds).
    To unpair an Apple Remote:
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Security, and then click General.
    Open the General pane of Security preferences
    Click Unpair.

  • How do you get the Apple website to recognize a new pc tower?

    My account was started in December 2012 and I bought a new Dell tower in February. I wanted to buy music yesterday and found that I could buy it but not download to my ipod because Apple did not recognize my pc. I removed the information on the old pc and now cannot get this pc recognized. There is no button on the Account information page to do this. How do I get it done?

  • How Do You Get the Apple Trackpad Icon to Show Up in Sys Prefs?

    Just upgraded to 10.6.4, did all software updates, and bought the Trackpad. Trackpad works, but there is no icon for it in the Sys Prefs to make adjustments. Suggestions?
    Thanks
    Tom

    Thanks!
    Yeah I saw it last night on the Apple website, and ran to the Apple store today to get one, All Things Apple Fanboy that I am
    It really looks cool, and is very responsive as you would expect, but after decades with a mouse, will take some getting used to. I've been using it all evening and starting to feel a bit more comfortable with it. Quite a change though. I do love not having the space it saves in not having to move the mouse around....thanks again..

  • How do you get another apple ID off when you update games

    Ive had this problem and its my friends Apple ID

    If any app was purchased with that friend's Apple ID, then you will need that ID and password to update. Otherwise you will need to delete any such app from the iPad, and if you still want it will need to acquire it through your own Apple ID.
    Regards.

  • How do you regulate the number of emails that are kept on your phone before they are deleted?

    HOW DO YOU CHANGE THE NUMBER OF EMAILS THAT ARE KEPT ON YOUR PHONE BEFORE YOU DELETE THEM?

    Your carrier sets this by time, not the number of "rings" since different ring tones take different times/ring.  The typical setting is 30 seconds, sometimes up to 40 seconds.  Contact your carrier to shorten it.

  • HT4101 Once pictures are moved from your camera to your iPad (using the camera connection kit), how do you get the photos off of the iPad? They do not show up in my photo stream or my iCloud.

    Once pictures are moved from your camera to your iPad (using the camera connection kit), how do you get the photos off of the iPad? They do not show up in my photo stream or my iCloud. I am able to see any photo I took on the iPad using the iPad camera (in iTunes, photo stream, or when I open windows explorer and browse the iPad director), however I cannot see any photos transfered from my camera to the iPad. The camera connection kit must have put my photos in a directory I cannot get to and cannot sync.

    The links below have instructions for deleting photos.

  • How do you get the sound to play on the tv from your macbook

    I connected my macbook to my tv using a HDMI cord. I'm trying to watch netflix but the sound plays from my macbook. How do you get the music to play from the tv instead.

    The adapter to HDMI doesn't carry sound from a MacBook earlier than the Mid 2010 models and most TVs don't have separate RCA input plugs for audio with the HDMI inputs since they expect the sound to be carried by the HDMI plug. With HDMI you'll need to use external speakers or headphone jack to RCA sound plugs connected to a stereo sound system if your TV doesn't have separate RCA input plugs for audio with the HDMI plug.
