Need to update OS and password does not work

IPad was set up under fathers work email. Father passed away and I continued to use his pw for upgrades. Went to upgrade this time and password does not work. Changed his profile email to mine and tried to update pw  it could not answer a security code. Creted new accounts, changed pws yet still asking for his work email pw which no longer works

You can try requesting a new password for your fathers Apple ID here: http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/

Steve

  • I CANNOT DOWNLOAD ADOBE READER FOR MY MAC (ID AND PASSWORD DOES NOT WORK)

    I CANNOT DOWNLOAD ADOBE READER FOR MY MAX (ID AND PASSWORD DOES NOT WORK

    This seems to cause a certain amount of confusion. Your Adobe ID is not used to download or install Adobe Reader.
    But when you install any software you are likely to need your own computer's administrator password. This password was chosen by you (or someone) the first time the computer was switched on, and is used to protect the system against bad things.

  • After update, keyboard and trackpad does not work on MBA but wireless mouse works. I don't use a wireless keyboard. Stuck at login because need to enter pw. Anyone have this issue? Please help!

    My Macbook Air (13", mid 2011) right after I did the Maverick OS update. My keyboard on Macbook Air is not working and it says "There isn't a keyboard connected" (Bluetooth Keyboard Setup). I do not use a wireless keyboard. Apparently my bluetooth works because my wireless mouse works. I am currently stuck at my login screen not being able to get in because I can't even enter my password. I am, however, able to login as guests and get to the Keyboard viewer to type things with my wireless mouse. I really need my keyboard to work to use for my job. I need help please!

    I forgot to mention that my power button did work but everything else, keyboard and trackpad, didn't! Anyway, I shutdown my laptop, slept, and turned it back (in hopes that it might work instead of restarting it like before). Now my keyboard and trackpad works! Thank goodness! I was about to go to the Apple store upset too! 

  • Administrator name and password does not work in other accounts

    My hard drive died so I had one installed. I reinstalled contents from TimeMachine. When my son is in his account and he is prompted for the Administrator's name and password I type in the required info but the shaking text box indicates that my admin name and password are wrong. I tried to unlock the System Preferences and same thing happens. When I am in my account, I have no problems. How to I make it so I can change, install and fix things when I am in another person's account?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

  • When I attempt to updates apps on my ipad my password does not work. I tried updating them one at a time and it still doesn't work. I've reset my password and I can use the new password and update apps on my PC but not on my ipad. Why?

    When I attempt to update apps on my ipad my password does not work, even when I attempt to update each app separately. When I change the password it works on my PC but not on my ipad.  Why?

    Try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if it then works.

    You can't activate any GSM iPhone without a valid sim card installed in the phone.
    So, yes, you need to get a sim card.

  • HT4946 i want to backup my iPhone to my new iMac but my backup is selected to Encrypt Local backup and my password does not work.

    I am trying to backup my iPhone on my new iMac iTunes. It is currently backed up on my PC  and encrypted. Both PC and iMac iTunes have Encrypted backup selected. My password does not work for either iMac or PC. Should I go ahead and try to backup to my iMac iTunes.

    Sorry to hear about your phone jb111jb! We'll do everything we can to help find the best route! The only way to remove the password is flashing the device, but that will erase all the content. Have you ever backed up using Verizon Cloud or Google Sync? Do you have a memory card?

  • HT1430 My password does not work any longer. I type it in and it is telling me incorrect password. What do I do?

    My password does not work for my IPAD any longer.

    If you don't know your passcode for iPad, you have to restore your iPad as a new device in iTunes on your computer. 

  • I have downloaded an app and it does not work

    I downloaded two apps. They are both are the same application, on;y difference is that one is the 2.0 version and the other 3.0 version.
    When I downloaded the 2.0 version I thought this was the latest version, but turns out there was another newer version. But I tried the 2.0 version first and this does not work on my mac. The application is Wondershare Data Recovery. It is not able to see any devices on my mac.
    So tried the 3.0 version and again same problem, does not work, funny because after careful researching on what product to buy I decided to download the trial version and it works fine. Only thing is that I need to but the full version to successfully retrive my disappeared images from memeory card, from my camera phone.
    anyway the point is, I have just wasted £95, and I would like this back, or at least the problem resolved. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    Updated -
    I only find the v3.0 in the UK Mac App Store (MAS). But on the developer's website I find two separate apps; Wondershare Data Recovery for Mac, which is v3.0 and Wondershare Data Recovery for iTunes, which is v2. Where did you buy Data Recovery for iTunes? I don't find it sold in either the MAS or the iTunes App Store.
    Have you used the support link to the developer on the apps pane in the MAS? That is who Apple will direct you to contact.
    Did you remove the trial version before downloading and installing the paid MAS version(s)?

  • I have checked the box "display date and time on the Menu Bar" and it does not work.  Using OS X Yosemite 10.10.2  Anybody have a fix?

    I have checked the box "display date and time on the Menu Bar" and it does not work.  Using OS X Yosemite 10.10.2  Anybody have a fix?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

  • Clip Speed and Transpose does not work on a sound clip

    Dear All,
    I am trying to slow down and change pitch of an .aiff sound clip in Soundtrack pro but the "Clip Speed" and "Transpose" does not work. I tried the same version of the clip in .mp3 format but nothing happens. It is a music clip 2 min 19sec long. What am I not aware of?
    I am using 2.0.2 version and I am fairly new to the software.
    Thanks a lot,
    Izabela

    Hi carloss,
    Have you checked the integration services (Assuming you are using Hyper-V)?
    The devices are configured based on the related services. You might need to install/Configure that thing.
    Further, Windows 10 build 10041 is available, you may check through Windows Update:
    Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 10041 now available
