    The Snow Leopard 10.6 DVD should still be available from Apple for $20. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775 to purchase it. It may still be in the Legacy Products list. The App Store which is required to download 10.7 or 10.8 is part of the 10.6.6 update.
    If they no longer have any in stock you will have to buy it from eBay or Apple resellers that still have stock. But you will have to pay a premium since the DVDs are no longer being made. Snow Leopard DVDs are already up to $100 on Amazon.

  • How do I get the password for an old apple id, when I don't have access to that old email address, and it doesn't recognize my birthdate?

    How do I get the password for an old apple ID when I dont have access to the email address and it does not recognize my birthdate?

    Hi Attila528,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you are not able to receive a rescue email to reset your security questions and password:
    You'll need to contact iTunes Store support to have your questions and answers reset.
    You can find the article with this information here:
    Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    After your password, security questions and answers are reset, I'd recommend providing a new rescue email address:
    You can edit or delete your rescue email address at My Apple ID. To edit your rescue email address:
    Navigate to My Apple ID using your web browser.
    Click "Manage your account"
    When prompted, sign in using your Apple ID and password.
    Click Password & Security
    You'll be asked to answer 2 of your 3 security questions before you can make any modifications. If you are unable to remember your answers, you can choose to send an email to your rescue email to reset your security questions.
    All the best,
    Jeremy

  • When asked to type in my Apple ID it comes under another persons email address and not mine.  this happened after I updated my iphone on my Mac computer  Why is it using another persons email address and I cannot get it off of there

    When asked to type in my Apple ID it uses a email address that is not mine but is one of my contacts, I cannot access itunes as this is not my email address, this happened after I updated my phone on my Mac computer.  How do I get this email address off so I can use my Apple ID ?

  • Someone else opened an itunes account with my email address

    I attempted to change my email address on my itunes account and discovered that my current email address was already in use. I thought I must have registered it at some point and forgotten the password so I did the password reset. When I logged in, I discovered the account actually belonged to someone else.So obviously someone had the email address before I did and used it to open an itunes account that has never been updated. Since I've had the address for quite awhile, I can only assume that person does not use itunes anymore. I'd still like to update my account but can find no way to either close the other person's account or notify that person that they need to update their account. My other concern is that when I do update the account with my current email address, I worry that the person who previously had the address will decide to use itunes again and will end up in my account.
    What do I do?
    Thanks!

    I see, oh you should definately take Carolyn's advice. I've needed to talk to an Account Security Rep a few times, and even though you may need to start the process online, they will talk to you on the phone in a case like this, as it's just too difficult to type out all of the complicated but critical details.

  • The iPhone comes up with an email address rather than the name after the update

    Just updated my iPhone and when I now send a message it shows as my email address rather than name. What's the quick fix for this problem?

    You're not being clear...
    when you send a Message (iMessage/SMS) ?
    or email?
    Where does it show your email address?

  • HT4061 iPad stolen - how do I wipe personal text messages out? Synced with my apple account and cell number but not showing in iCloud.

    My iPad was stolen - I just synced it with my cellphone number and updated to the new OS the day before it's stolen. Why is the iPad not showing up in my iCloud account so that I can locate it and wipe the data?
    I know that the iPad is likely still full of my text messages because I tried deleting them on my phone thinking it would also delete them from the iPad. Instead, the iPad re-populated all if the text messages I deleted back in to my iPhone.
    Help! I don't want these people having my personal text messages. How can I wipe an iPad/break the sync with my phone when I don't have the iPad anymore?

  • I am using my sons old computer.  i thought he removed everything from it, i downloaded itunes since it was not on there from him.  i can log in with my email address and password but i get his playlist.  how can i see my playlist?

    i am using my sons old computer, as far as i can see he uninstalled itunes, so i downloaded itunes.  I can log in under my email and password but i only see his playlist!!! how can i get to my playlist???
    I know this should be simple!!!  but i am not Itunes smart?
    my original playlist/acct was on another computer that we got rid of. 
    I have been downloading songs on my Ipod for about a year without logging onto a computer.
    Maybe i am saying this wrong, i mean my library of songs.  i can only see his songs not mine.

    Your songs would only be there if you put them there.  They do not magically appear in another place.
    Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

  • My husband and I share the same computer at home with different email address and apple IDs . My question is can I download music from my itune page to his Iphone?

    Can I Share the itune music that I purchase with my husband even if we have different Apple ID passwords?

    No, you cannot have the same primary email address used for two separate Apple IDs.
    However, you can sign into the same email address on your separate devices for the purposes of receiving mail.  Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts & Calendars > Add Account.
    Apple IDs are for using Apple services, like the App Store, iTunes, etc.
    Email addresses (while used as the NAME of an Apple ID), are separate entities.

    When you open Print & Scan and click plus to add and then select the Default Add Printer pane, does the MP530 appear in this view?
    If not, open Safari and then open the Preferences. Then select Bookmarks and for the Bookmarks Bar, select Enable Bonjour. This will make a Bonjour entry appear in the Safari Bookmarks Bar. Close the Preferences and select this Bonjour bookmark. Does the MP530 show in this view?
    If the MP530 is still not showing then turn it off and unplug the power cord for one minute. Then reconnect the power cord and turn the printer back on. Now use Safari > Bonjour to check if you can see the MP530.
