APPLE HAVE VERY SERIOUS PROBLEMS and not telling the consumer

Here are the problems I am having with my Apples. I have always held Apple in the highest esteem; not anymore. There is definitely something up at Apple.
1.  icloud seems to be another disaster. Can't log in on a imac with the CORRECT password. iphone and ipad log in fine. Macbook Pro was logged in, signed out ( as part of my trouble shoot on the imac) and now that won't log in. Back to my PC spins its wheels perpetually on the one or two occassions I have managed to get in. In consequence mail, contacts, and calender are not syncing.
2. Sleep and screen saver settings cannot be changed on imac. continually reverts to the original setting.
3. passwords for email accounts are not retained. For approximately 7 email accounts I have to go through approximately 28 error and enter password screens to download emails.
4.Many programs are starting up on start up despite closing them before shutdown. Settings are correct but still this nonsense.
All these problems are being experienced by many other users.
COME CLEAN WITH YOUR CONSUMERS APPLE. Just have the courage and maturity to tell your customers your have problems and support that with a commitment as to WHEN they will be resolved.
You have lost a hardlined ambassador in myself. Goodbye.

That's a bummer. Report your experience to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/icloud.html.

  • Change the Apple ID for a game and not lose the progress made?

    Short version of my question: can I change the apple id associated with a game to another one and not lose the progress made in the game thus far?
    Long version: when there were only a few iGadgets in the house, all games and music were downloaded through Alpha's apple id and the credit card tied to that account. Now, we two folks have multiple iGadgets between the both of us and Beta has her own apple ID. Because we only used one apple id  for so long, Beta has some games installed through Alpha's account and her own Beta account. Beta would now like to change the account the game PocketTimeSuck is associated with from Alpha's account to Beta's account without losing any of the progress made in this game which she has been playing for over a year.
    Is there any way of re-installing PocketTimeSuck onto Beta's device under Beta's apple ID and maintain the progress in the game she has made after installing it under Alpha's apple id? Alpha would like to start playing PocketTimeSuck but cannot install it under her own apple id because it comes with all of Beta's progress.
    (Also, if this is not the right forum, please let me know where I should post this question. Don't flame me, just tell me.)

    I'm getting confused by the Greek alphabet here so I will explain it this way and hope I understand what you are asking.
    Beta has been playing a game that she downloaded using Alpha's ID but now Beta would like to transfer the game and all of its progress to her own ID. That is not possible to do. The game was bought with Alpha's ID and is now associated with that ID and that progress is part of Alpha's backup.
    Alpha now wants to play the game under her own ID but the game is associated with her ID already. If she wanted to, she could just pick up where beta left off and leave Beta out in the cold. Somehow I don't think that is a good solution for either Alpha or Beta.
    Alpha should probably create a new Game Center account and start all over again with her own Game Center account. Beta will obviously have to do the same thing if she wants to play this game using her own Apple ID on her own iGadget.
    So if I do understand correctly, Alpha and Beta will both have to start over again. Howver, I could be confused because this is all "Greek to me".

  • Can i set up an apple id for my daughter and not loose the apps i got her thru my account?

    So here's the thing... I gave my daughter my old ipod touch and have been downloading apps to it with my apple id account. I've realized now that she has the ability to change the progress of my games (that we both play, eg. smurfville) by logging into the game center. And she could also use up money in my accnt. Yes, I realize that I can just change my password, but I want her to be able to back up her games thru the game center, and downlaod apps with her own girft card $, etc. So I want to set her up with her own accnt, but dont want her to loose all the apps I got her with my accnt. Is that possible?

    I should note for you that, although the apps are available, they are not put on her account. If she were to update them later on, she'll still have to use your information to update them and not hers. There is no way to actually transfer purchases. They only show available because your account is still there, and you guys are sharing a computer/device. Just figured I'd give you a head's up.

    It's so annoying!! I have created a new Apple ID but after I click verify it just goes back to the previous page!!! It''s really frustrating I have tried for more than 4H, and the problem is not about the apple ID. I can download apps with the apple ID, which means IMessage is the problem! I restarted my iPad, I logged in and out of the apple ID in the store, AND YET IT STILL WON'T WORK, PLEASE HELP!

    Hi Vmanfromusa!
    It sounds like you are having an issue with activating your iMessage app on your iPad. An article outlining some troubleshooting steps for this issue can be found here:

    Κανε backup στο iTunes και μετά κάνε restore as new. Δηλαδή Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Content and Settings. Οταν τελειώσει θα έχουν σβηστεί όλα. Μην κανεις restore from backup. Δοκίμασε πρώτα νε δεις αν δουλεύει το wi-fi. Αν δεν δουλεύει πας στο service. Αν δουλεύει κάνε restore from backup. Αν το πρόβλημα ξαναεμφανιστεί τότε πρέπει να ξανακανεις restore as new και να το στησεις απο την αρχή. Αν δεν εμφανιστεί έχεις καθαρίσει. Μην ξεχάσεις να συγχρονίζεις επαφές και ημερολόγια πριν το restore.

    I have an IPad mini and I changed the Apple ID and the password almost one year ago and, for a while, a message asking me to sign in to ICloud pops- up constantly. My ICloud account is registered with an old email address and password. I do not remember the password to my ICloud account, and ID address that my ICloud account is registered under is an old email adress which is deleted right now (the old mail account is deleted). I don’t have a rescue email adress and I don’t know the answers to the security questions, so I have no way of changing the ICloud password. A message asking me to sign in to ICloud pops up constantly, but I always just hit cancel. However, now I am unable to access Find My IPad. How do I get my ICloud account changed and registered to be under my current Apple ID (email) and password? It is possible to set the device as New Ipad?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

    Anyways when I go to it theres a drop-down list and you select the one you want and I know the number next to it identifies the model but the thing is they don't have my model listed so my main question is, what version eg. 2.1.1. or 2.2.1 etc. etc. etc. etc. will work with my model of ipod touch which is the 2g Model A1288?

    Hi All, i recently done a back up and update & restore, but ive lost my notes, my text messages and my reminders and notes on the calender, i also have lost the data i had in an app which was very important to me. Please Please help me,  i,m total novice.
    I did this back up because i was instructed by my service provider. This was supposed to sort out my losing connection problem, which it didn't, it instead gave me a new problem. If there is anyone out there who can help me to retrieve my lost information i would appreciate it.
    Thank You in advance.

    You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup.  If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup.  You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone.  However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

    I bought an iPhone 4 from a youngster who had put his own Apple ID on it but could not remember the password. I backed it up yesterday and restored to my new iPhone and it copied the Apple ID across too. Now I have 2 phones with it on. Anything I do?

    that must be really annoying !!
    so this is what you call
    FIND MY IPHONE ACTIVATION LOCK Find My iPhone Activation Lock - Apple Support
    when you start using iCloud on any iOS device and enable find my iPhone, this prevents  a new user from using it, and also prevents anyone from using the phone
    as it is locked to previous owners account ,this is also the case if when a phone is lost or stolen.
    the only way around this is to have the previous owner reset their apple id by going to  @ applied.apple.com
    if they are unable to do this, then the only other way around this is to have the previous owner get  a copy of their original receipt and call apple support who can then lift this lock if they get a copy of the receipt
    unfortunately there is no quick fix -> the below link explains what you should do before you sell or give away an iPhone

    Hi marcmartineau,
    I'm not sure why this is happening, but I think I'm seeing the same thing. Many times when I get an email on the iPad or iPhone with a picture attached, I don't see the picture but instead just a placeholder icon.
    I have found a work around though to at least see the picture. If I forward it and include the attachment, I see the picture in the outgoing email. I can even save the image from the sending email if I really don't want to send it. If i do send it to myself, chances are I will see the picture in the email when I receive it even though it's just a resend of the original.
    weird.

    The reset link will show on your account if you have a rescue email address on it, if you only have alternate email addresses then it won't show.
    If the country where you and your iTunes account are isn't on this page (you need to be in a country to use its store) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    then you can try contacting support via this page and explain that you've forgotten your answers, don't have a rescue email address, and your country isn't on the HT5699 page and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
