Why is my Apple id working on my MacBook but not my iPad?

Why is my Apple id working on my MacBook but not my iPad? I can log in o.k. on my MacBook, but using the same user name and password on my iPad, I just get the Incorrect Apple ID or Password message.
on my iPad, I have used the Forgotten Apple ID or Password link and reset the password. Even after I get the successfully reset password message it still gives me the Incorrect Apple ID or Password message!
In desperation I have restored the iPad to Factory settings. It appears to be running OS 7. something.
My Macbook is running 10.8.5.
But the same problme persists.
Please help

I am having the same problem. Works fine on the website but telling me it's incorrect on my iPhone

  • When i burn videos to a dvd-r disc it works on my macbook but not on a windows/pc or my dvd player. How can i make it work on all the above and not just a mac product?

    Unfortunately, the recording & movie industry does not respect the rights of the people who make them money, and thus you can only use the paid-for content in ways they see fit. Even if I lived in a bunker where no one else could possibly see the movie I paid for, therefor I'm not 'sharing it illegally', I would still not be allowed in a blue moon to copy that movie to DVD for TV viewing. Someone will tell you to get an AppleTV. How about Apple give us one for free? Until this changes, people wanting to use their content in multiple locations will continue to download music & movies via torrents, legally or illegally.

  • Why can I receive iMessages sent to my phone number on my macbook but not my iPad?

    Why can I receive iMessages sent to my phone number on my macbook but not my iPad?
    My iPhone phone number appeared as a recipient option on my mac as soon as I launched Messages on my iPhone but not on the iPad and I can't find a way to add it.

    You do not have an app but you can setup your iMessage on the iPhone and switch it on (as it is since you receive messages on the iPhone).
    In the same setup screen under iMessage you should have send receipt, send as SMS and also Send and Receive   howmanyadress  >  Click on here and you will enter a new screen.
    On top there should be you Apple ID and under your phone number. Under the phone number you can add some Mail adress to be used for iMessage. I believe it is important ot have the Apple ID on the top of this screen  and at least one Apple Mail checked as to be used for iMessage. 
    This should be enought to get iMessage both on iPhone and Mac.
    Try this and let iCloud to sync for few minutes and you should have the data on the Mac too.

  • Html link to pdf works ok on mac but not on ipad. adobe reader for ipad downloaded.

    HTML link to pdf works ok on Mac but not on ipad. Adobe Reader for ipad downloaded. What's wrong?

    Hi pwillener,
    Thank for reply. The pdf’s are in a subfolder “PDF” of the folder holding the web page. The web page itself uses
    . This works in full size computer browsers but not in an iPad.
    My excursion through the search engine has produced the idea of adding #page = requesting page to the URL but I have not had time to try it perhaps without the = sign.

  • How do I send group emails from my iPad? They work fine from my MacBook but not the iPad.

    How do I send group emails from an iPad? They work fine on my MacBook but not my iPad.

    You need a third party app to do that. Look at Mail Shot or Group Email in the app store. You cannot do it with the built in mail app and the contacts app in iOS 5 without a third party app.

  • Wifi signal working on my MacBook, but not on my IPhones.  Why?

    I've been having trouble with my network signal strength for the last few weeks since my service started.   My ISP is DirecTV. 
    Today, my service went down completely and after I called them, it came back about an hour later.  I now have Internet service on my MacBook, but not on any of my mobile devices, including IPhones.  They are unable to see the base station. 
    I've rebooted many times.  Occassionally, it will see my network signal, but then it drops off.  I have a Motorola SB5101 Modem.  One thing I do know from calling DirecTV so often is that the tech on the phone today did change my IP address.  Does that have anything to do with my problem? 
    My fear is that if I call them again, I will once again be without any Internet access, so I'm waiting patiently on a Thursday appointment, but if I can do anything to fix it now, I'd like to.  Thank you.

  • Why would a rented movie work on the ground but not in the air?

    This is the craziest thing.  I rented a movie from my MacBook Pro and then transferred it to my iPad 2 for a flight.  However once I got on the plane each time I tried to open it I received a message that the movie could not be opened.  OK.  I figured I made a mistake in the transfer.  Once I got home I tried to open the movie again (in Airplane mode, just to be sure) and it loaded right up.  I didn't press play since I was leaving on another flight in two days.  Got on the flight and had the exact same problem.  Once I landed I tried it again and it loaded right up, but I didn't hit play because I have another flight on Friday.  What are the odds it will occur three times in a row?  I have 20 days left on the rental and about six more flights.  This could be fun.
    To lend a little irony to the situation the movie is "Up In The Air".  Anyone have any clue what the heck is going on?  The only variable among the two instances is that in the air I had headphones plugged in, but on the ground I didn't.

    Hi Dominique:
    First-if your mac can control the camera but not see the video,
    *Open Garageband
    *Play a note or two
    *Close Garageband
    *Open iMovie
    The camera will work now-REALLY!!
    If not, look here:

  • Apple TV working fine with Wireless, but not on Ethernet

    I just got an Apple tv for my B-day and I can't get the Ethernet port to work.
    It works fine on wireless but if i plug in the cable to my 5 port switch that then goes to my router it will not login to the store, or sync or fine youtube. It has and ip and everything. I tried opening that port 38 something. And no go? Does anyone have any ideas?
    I have a 2wire router, and one 5 port switch, the PS3, Wii and Xbox all work on the switch just fine.
    I even upgrade to firmware 2.01

    Thanks for your help guys
    I have tried another ethernet cable but no go. I'm going to get a new one at the store today. As for the IP. the first time I plugged it in the IP was way diffrent from the one on my router so i manually added the new ip and subnet mask etc etc. And still no go. It is seen in itunes but tells me it can't sync. And if i go to the Apple TV it will not open any of the web enabled features. No you tube, no store, no nadda.

  • Why does my WD Passport work on my Mac but Not on my PC?

    So i just bought a MacBook Pro and I have been a PC user forever. This is my 1st time owning a Mac and Im not sure if this is my bad or an issue with the hard drive... So heres what happened... I have a 160 GB WD Passport and I had it Windows formatted originally. When I got my MacBook Pro I decided to reformat the drive to use exclusively for data transfers of large files between my MacBook and my Windows desktop PC. I'm very computer savvy and have been building PC's for years now and as far as I can tell I formatted the drive into the correct format. I used my MacBook to do the formatting and using Disk Utility I erased and reformatted the drive into FAT as thats the only format thats the utility allows that is windows compatible. After I did that I made sure the drive was partitioned correctly and all was working on the MacBook. I was able to read and write file to the drive using the MacBook with no issues. When I went to plug the drive into my Windows PC the drive would not be recognized at all. The light on the drive turns on and just blinks on and off once every second or so. So now that you know the situation I guess the question is... Did I do something wrong? How do I fix this so the Hard Drive will be compatible on both Operating systems? if any body know the answer to this please help me because I cannot figure this out for the life of me. Thank you in advance for your help.

    Hi and welcome to Discussions,
    sounds to me like when you reformated the harddisk with Disk Utility the GPT (GUID Partition Table) was used.
    Check with Disk Utility to verify.
    Windows can not see/use harddisk that are using GPT.
    If possible, reformat the harddisk with Disk Utility, use MS-DOS (=FAT32) and use the 'Options' to set the partition table to be MBR (Master Boot Record).
    (Caution, this deletes everything that is on that harddisk
    That way both OSX and Windows can use the harddisk.
    You are aware that with FAT32 you have a single-file size limitation of around 4GB.
    Regards
    Stefan

    The both screens always worked fine but now the power book doesn't show anything on the screen.  I didn't drop it or even move it.  Where is the brightness button?  Could I have hit it by mistake?
    Thanks so much for your help.
    F2 is the up-brightness button, F1 is the down-brightness button, usually, on PowerBooks.  If for some reason the F1 button got held down for a couple of seconds, the display would go completely dark.
    That being said, if the backlight does not come up (easily determined by seeing if the Apple outline on the cover is lit up) then the most likely suspect would be the inverter board, or the connection to the inverter board.  If this is a Titanium PG G4, the inverter board is easy and relatively inexpensive to replace.  For the Aluminum models, I don't know if that is quite so true.

  • My Facetime ID works on my Iphone4s but not my Ipad 2. Can someone offer a solution?

    Hello,
    My Facetime works great on my Iphone4s but when I log my ID into my Ipad 2, the Facetime application does not work on the Ipad. I've narrowed this down to the Ipad, because I've tried logging in several different apple ID's into the Facetime app on my Ipad, and none of the ID's can use the Facetime app. I have the latest software on the Ipad, so I don't think it's a software issue. I'm a bit concerned that there could be a hardware issue with the Ipad. Does anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks

    I have the exact problem but I have an iPhone 5 and iPad 4 sorry I don't know the solution it's still doing it

    Is the AirPort Express the only router in your current network configuration? That is, is it connected directly to a simple Internet modem and not to another router upstream of it? Regardless, what is the make & model of the network device that the Express is connected to?
