  • Can't update apps that were set up under a different email address that was closed some time ago.

    The specific APPS at this time are Pages, Keynote and numbers but I would be suprised if others will have this problem in the future.  And I can't update them on the new Apple ID.   And when I supidly did the forgot my password thing with the old system they probally sent the message to an email address that no longer exists.  If anyone could help it would be appsheated.

  • Every so often when using safari my bookmarks disappear and then later the list shows up again.  Does anyone know what causes this and how to fix it?

    Every once in awhile while using safari my bookmarks list disappears.  Later it just shows up again.  Anyone know what causes this and how to fix it?

    I have had exactly the same problem now with two mini iPads.  Everything was tried; 1) restarting; 2) restoring factory settings etc.  NONE worked.  Eventually Apple agreed to replace it.  I have had the replacement now for two to three months and exactly the same thing is happening again. So off to Apple tomorrow to get another replacement.
    I am quite a heavy user of the iPad so wonder if this is something to do with the fault.
    It is so frustrating as sometimes reset works, and then after 10/20/30/40 minutes (you pick) it goes unstable again.

  • I am unable to change or delete my iCloud ID, it is prompting sign in using an old email address that used to be my Apple ID, others have had this same problem but the answer seems to be to delete the iCloud account but I can't do that.

    I am unable to change or delete my iCloud ID, it is prompting sign in using an old email address that used to be my Apple ID, others have had this same problem but the answer seems to be to delete the iCloud account but I can't do that, because when I select delete account it prompts me to sign in on the old email address which doesn't exist anymore!! Please help!

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    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.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID, verify the changes, enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone".
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, verify it once again, delete the iCloud account from your device and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

    That's not a good sign if it said it was going to send it to an email address you've never heard of. Contact iTunes Support and let them know this: http://apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

    I go into Messages there is a Send & Receive selection.  My email address
    is showing.  I select Send & Receive and mu phone and email address is
    there.  A check mark is next to my email address.  Is this the problem?  I
    was unable to remove my email address.  I tried to remove my email address
    but the response is "This email address could not be removed."
    Thank you for your response.  I will stand by for your next request or

  • HT3228 I have one of the origin iPads. Suddenly when I receive an email only the headings are shown - the body of the text is blank. Also previously received emails have also had the text body removed. Any suggestions as to what caused this?

    I have one of the original iPads. Suddenly (from yesterday) when I receive an email only the headings are shown - the body of the text is blank. Also previously received emails have also had the text body removed. Any suggestions as to what caused this?

    Try this.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • FaceTime won't accept the password which I wrote down some time ago and doesn't provide a "forgot your password" option. And when I try to create a new account it tells me that my email is already registered. What can I do to revise my password?

  • Why does my email auto pull-down list keep fading out after one second (I can put my mouse on it and it comes back, so it is there, just again fades away after 1 second)?

    When I go to send an email, many of may emails are saved so when I type in the first letter, a list appears in the auto pull down. However, when I go to click on the address I want, it immediately fades out. I will put my cursor on it and I will see the list again, but only for one second, then it fades away again.
    So I have to guess which order they are in and click and hope it's the right one, ha!
    I like the option, it just isn't working right for some reason.

    That would indicate an issue with the local network, not internet. This can impact devices differently and will likely be more obvious on a streaming only device.
    If you are on wifi try ethernet
    Make sure DNS is set to auto (settings - general - network)
    Go to istumbler, netstumbler or similar to get a report of the network, look for signal strength and noise.

  • Yahoo e-mail will not allow me to add contacts and will not auto fill e-mail addresses, and now I'm having trouble downloading Adobe documents from my bank. All of these problems can be solved by using Internet Explorer, but I prefer Firefox.

    I get an error message when trying to add new contacts and it is suggested I try back later, also when sending an e-mail the address I wish to send an e-mail to will no longer auto-fill. This has been a problem for sometime, maybe a month. The last problem I had was trying to download my March bank statement, in Adobe. If I switch to Internet Explorer I can accomplish these tasks. I am using Yahoo on both Firefox and Internet Explorer.

    Check the Ethernet connection to the AirPort Express. Make sure that the Ethernet connection from the Comcast modem is connected to the WAN port on the back of the AirPort Express. The WAN port is the one with the circle of dots shown over the port.
    It sounds like you are connected to the Ethernet LAN port.

  • Why did my email auto fill quit working with Yahoo mail?

    This week my e-mail address auto-fill quit working with AT&T Yahoo, but still works when using the Safari browser on my Mac. Actually found 22 posts dating back to a year ago for people having the same problem, so guess this is ongoing and happening randomly. Is there a fix, or do I have to abandon Firefox and go back to using Safari?

    I have this question too. My iphone 5 is new from t-mobile, and I restored it from my own backup on my factory-new laptop. I am curious who this person is, and whether my "new" iphone may actually be refurbushed?

  • Safari not filling in web addresses automatically like it used to

    Used to be able to type in something like 'earthlink' into the url address and Safari would automatically fill it in as 'earthlink.com' but now it is not doing this. Not aware of any changes to preferences, etc. Any ideas?

    Hi Douglas,
    It sounds as if, in a way you are being highjacked, do you use Earthlink as your ISP?
    Here are Earthlink's Opt out DNS #s, that are not included in the page, on Portforward
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=3251015#3251015
    207.69.188.172
    207.69.188.171 if you live east of the Mississippi
    207.69.188.171
    207.69.188.172 if you live west of the Mississippi
    Go to System Preferences -> Network-> Show Airport: or Ethernet:
    On the TCP/IP tab , enter the numbers in list form, in optional "DNS Servers" box that's probably blank.
    See this link on an,Earthlink blog & this topic thread for more info.
    These Verizon DNS #'s also work well for many users. See the portford link for more Dns server #'s for other ISP.
    4.2.2.1
    4.2.2.2
    You may also consider using Open DNS
    Hope this helps some.

  • I don't remember the security questions and the email account that is listed is no longer in use. What do I do?

    What do I do when I can't remember the security questions and the email address is no longer in use that is listed?

    The Three Best Alternatives for Security Questions and Rescue Mail
        1. Use Apple's Express Lane.
              Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the

              'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Forgotten Apple
              ID security questions' and click 'Continue'. Please be patient waiting for the return
              phone call. It will come in time depending on how heavily the servers are being hit.

              Apple ID- Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security. Ask to speak to
