Apple ID User name/password

I am confused, I changed the email associated with my apple id. I also changed my user name (which was my old password). Have I created a second apple id? I cannot log onto my apple ID using my original username and password.

Hi kirk,
No, you have not created a second Apple ID, you have replaced your old ID with a new setting. You wouldn't be able to log onto it with the original username and password, because you have updated them to your new settings.
What is it you are trying to do?
Cheers,

HT203808 Mixed up iCloud and Apple ID user names/passwords

My daughter and I had been sharing iCloud for our phones. I created a new email account for her and told her to set up her own iCloud on her phone. I told her to delete the account (mine) listed on her phone and then to go back in and create a new account. I have no idea what she did. She seems to have changed my account to her email address. I thought I finally had it figured out after going back and forth in emails because it didn't recognize my password. Changed the password, I can get on and when I go to manage storage, it just shows my phone...and 5gb of storage even though I pay for 10 extra and it always shows 15gb. Is all the information now on her phone? This is so frustrating. When I went on iCloud I checked and my email address is the only one listed. However, when I tried to create a new apple id using her new email address it said that the id already existed, which I'm sure it does- with all of my information. She, even though she created the stupid thing 20 minutes ago, "can't remember her password." UGH. Any ideas?

Okay so what she did was she CHANGED my iCloud id to her new email and all of that information went with her. So her ID shows the 15gb of storage. How do I change it back? It won't let me online.

Any help appreciated

You are asking several different questions. If you need to store your photos, music, and movies on an external volume, you certainly can. Any externally connected hard disk drive will work, connected either directly to your Mac or to your Time Capsule as a shared volume.
You should not rely upon using that as a backup device though. Although you certainly may use it for both purposes, it is a better idea to have dedicated backup devices for a variety of reasons not limited to redundancy. You would not want to simultaneously lose all your pictures as well as your backup. If they are all on the same device, that could happen. Furthermore, a backup cannot back up the volume on which it is running.
As for adding an Extreme or Express, using its LAN port for your iMac, and then enable Internet sharing so you can effectively use the iMac as a "hotspot", you can do that too, but I am unclear on what benefit you believe this arrangement would convey for you.
An Extreme's Guest network is separate from its Main network; that is the reason for having it.

I changed my apple id user name on my iphone, but when i want to sign to icloud on my ipod it gives me only the old id user name

My ipad was changed normally and easily but my ipod is stuck and of course is not listed on my devices on icloud....please help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello oshalaby,
To get it to your new Apple ID, you would need to change it back to your old on so you can turn off Find My Device and turn it off. Once that is done, change it back to what you are currently using now. Take a look at the article below for more information.
If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
http://support.apple.com/en-us/TS5223
Change your Apple ID temporarily
If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't help, try these steps:
Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
Tap Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
Scroll down and tap Sign Out, then tap Sign Out to confirm. If you're using iOS 7 or earlier, tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
Tap Keep on My [Device] or Delete from My [Device]. In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.

HT5625 I want my new iPad mini to use my new Apple ID, not the old one that pops up without seemingly giving me the choice to update the Apple ID user name; as a result I haven't been able to update my APPS for some time.

I want my new iPad mini to use my new Apple ID, not the old one that pops up without seemingly giving me the choice to update the Apple ID user name; as a result I haven't been able to update my APPS for some time. I changed my apple ID when I got a new e mail address a few months ago .

Any apps you have installed from the old AppleID will always be tied to that AppleID. You have no choice but to enter the password for the old AppleID if you want to update apps downloaded using that ID.
The only way to stop being asked for the password for the old AppleID is to remove all apps from the device that were downloaded using that old AppleID.
You'd then need to re-download (and re-purchase) any apps you want to keep using under the new AppleID.
Apps cannot be transferred between AppleIDs.

I don't know icloud user name&password to login iphone after update ios7

I don't know icloud user name&password to login iphone after update ios7.
I try to recovery apple i.d., but nothing.
I called Thailand service support 001800 4412904.
He advise me to goto http://expresslane.apple.com/, and send issue form to apple service.
I wait more than a week, but no reply.
I have purchased invoice and iphone package to confirm this phone is not stolen.
How could I do?
Thank you for your time to reply.

Unfortunately, the contacting Apple's express lane is all you can do, if you had no luck to reset your password on http://iforgot.apple.com/

When trying to send photos using iphoto a window comes up and says that email server did'nt recognize user name /password ...what do i do to correct this please marie

hello when I try to send photos using the iphoto a window comes up to tell me that my email server didn't rercognize user name /password how do i correct this .. as i have cganged my email address but i can't get rid of the old one thank you marie

Hi Cody\'sgirl,
If you are having issues emailing photos directly from iPhoto, you may want to double check the email account information that is set in iPhoto. You may find the following article helpful (the section below is about setting up a new account, but it should be the same location to check existing account info):
To set up a Photo Mail account:
Choose iPhoto > Preferences, and then click Accounts.If you’re in full-screen view, move your pointer to the top of the screen to make the menu bar appear.
Click the Add button in the lower-left corner.
Click Email, and then click Add.
Choose your email service provider.If your service provider isn’t listed, choose Other.
Type the requested information.If you use the Mail application included with OS X, some account information might be filled in already. If you’re not sure what to type, contact your service provider.
You can set up more than one Photo Mail account by repeating these steps for each account. When you send an email, you can change the outgoing account by clicking the From pop-up menu and choosing an account.

2nd gen appletv says movies not authorised/ user name/password not accepted on appletv

This is so weird.
I have home-shared and can play all un-DRM stuff e.g. music and personal movies. However, TV shows and Movies downloaded from iTunes won't play. It keeps asking me to authorize my computer on iTunes. The computer is however authorised and just to be double sure I have authorised multiple times (and get the message "this computer is already authorised"). I also de-auth'd and re-auth'd. This is all after updating both the AppleTV and iTunes to the most up-to-date versions.
This is all happening with a Win7 PC so I home-shared from my Mac as well and exactly same thing. One other strange thing: I tried to sign in to iTunes on the AppleTv, just in case thats what is needed to get these things to play. It tells me my user name/ password is incorrect. This is the weirdest because it is the exact user name password I used to home-share and even buy the last TV show. I have repeatedly entered it so I am dead sure I have not entered it wrongly.
Has anyone encountered and fixed something like this? Cold rebooting also has no effect at resolving.
Thanks

My id/password combo is ok - 100% sure.
Took the bold step of resetting to factory defaults. Now it doesn't even sign in to itunes sharing from the AppleTV anymore: says id/password wrong. It was only iTunes saying this before. So now I can't even access stuff on my PC anymore. Yet at this very moment I'm downloading a movie on iTunes on the computer meaning I will only be able to see it on the computer.
Quite disappointed in Apple!

TS4268 FaceTime incorrect user name/password

I have just up dated my iPad 3 and iPhone 4 to ios6
When I try to login i get incorrect user name/password in the same time I can login in my account and download applications with same user name and the same password

Appreciate the links Tom, however none of these helps, I'll explain the issue exactly (should have done that in my first post):
The Facetime and iMessage credentials are valid and work just fine on the Mac, they don't work for some reason on the iPhone and the iPad and this only started happening after upgrading to iOS 6.
I did some digging and found that it was an issue already for some since iOS 6 beta 4 and found many threads online with users facing the same problem.
It seems that for some reason, a "glitch" occured during the upgrade and even restoring the device as new and starting from scratch doesn't help. After having received my other iPhone, I tried, and the issue remains.
I contacted Apple Care and they're on the case from what I've been told but haven't been able to pinpoint the exact cause yet.
I'll post back once I have an update.
Cheers,
Farès

Fixed by resetting my password to Apple's new protocol! In my case, I had to add a capitol letter.

HT4623 How can I chance Apple ID user name?

I deleted my old e-mail account and that was my Apple ID user name.
I created another Apple ID user name with the current e-mail account I have. Fine!
The thing is... I am trying to reset my IPhone 4 and it shows me my older user name and not the current one. Ok! I use the same password for both... BUT it says that my password or ID are incorrect. That means I am not able to reset it.
I already changed my Apple ID on my cellphone, but everytime I try to reset it, it still shows the old one.
Please... Somebody help me!

To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.
If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

Question on how to Hide the User Name, Password, and Domain fields in the MDT Wizard

MDT 2012 U1
Deploying Windows 7 via Offline Media (ISO) to MS Virtual PC's
I am looking on how to Hide the User Name, Password, and Domain fields which are prepopulated in the MDT wizard via the CS.ini (Not so concerned about the Domain field as I am User Name and Password)
We do need the Computer Name and OU fields to be seen, so skipping the wizard is not a option
The client just does not want these fields to be seen by the end users, they dont want them to even know the account name used for adding the machine to the domain, of course the password is not displayed but it must not be displayed either.
But since we use the fields they must still be fuctional just not seen.
Thanks.....
If this post is helpful please click "Mark for answer", thanks! Kind regards

You shouldn't have to edit DeployWiz_Definition_ENU.xml. You should only need to add "SkipAdminPassword=YES" to the CS.ini file and your authentication information.
Example:
[Settings]
Priority=Default
Properties=MyCustomProperty
[Default]
OSInstall=Y
SkipCapture=NO
SkipAdminPassword=YES
UserID=<MyUserID>
UserPassword=<MyPassword>
UserDomain=<MyDomain.com>
SkipProductKey=NO
SkipComputerBackup=YES
SkipBitLocker=NO
-Nick O.
Nick,
SkipAdminPassword=YES is for:
You can skip the Administrator Password wizard page by using this property in the
customsettings.ini.
I am hidding the Username/Password/and domain field in the computer name Wizard pane which is read from the cs.iniDomainAdmin=xxxxx
DomainAdminPassword=xxxxx
DomainAdminDomain=xxxxxx
JoinDomain=xxxxxx

HT1515 Will Airport Express work in hotels in China? They require user name/password to connect. Has anyone used one there?

I will be traveling in China with my iPad2 and want to use hotel wireless. It requires a sign-in with user name/password. Can I use an Airport Express for this purpose? How do I set it up for that? I have an old Express (pre-2007); can I use it or do I need to upgrade to the new model?

OK - I have never been to China but the posts here say that it can be done - the cable from the hotel should be connected to the WAN port of the Express - the Express should be in bridge mode and set to create a wireless network with a name and password of your choice - you can do this with a computer before you leave for China or with the iPad if you have previously downloaded the Airport Utility app - you would then connect to your network and attempt to bring up a web page such as Google - the hotel should then intervene and ask you for the login info that they have provided.

File Adapter - anonymous login (or )User name ,password login - Efficient?

Hi Folks,
In File Adapter processing , anonymous login (or) proper user name password based login is recommended ?
Because we have faced many issue while using username based login in File adapter .
Which one is best ?
Regards.,
Shiva

Hi Shiva ,
We will go one by one :
You can go for the Anonymous login but the problem is the any body can access the FTP server and it is not the secure one,that is why business generally don't allow the Anonymous login.
Coming to Proper user name password login ,I would advice you to use this one as the connection is more secure in this case.But this also comes with a problem that the username password generally expires after some time as per security policy and you have to change the username password for the FTP server as well as in File adapter which you are using.But this problem can be solved by going for a permanent username and password.
I would recommend you to go for Proper user name and password.
Regards
Ravi Anand
