Applecare coverage...when can i sign up for the extended coverage?
With all the trouble with the new macbooks, its looks like its best to purchase an extended coverage of applecare for my macbook. It would be best to buy this at the end of my 1year warranty. Does anyone know if this is possible? Can i buy extended applecare 1 year after my macbook purchase? does it then extend 3 years after the applecare purchase or 3 year after my macbook purchase??
Thanks!
AppleCare is good for 3 years from the date of purchase of the MacBook. You may want to consider getting it after 90-days, because that's when your phone support ends.
Also, shop around for AppleCare. I recently bought mine on eBay for $126.00.

When can we expect OS6 for the BlackBerry 9650?
Hi, all,
I noticed where Sprint just released OS 6 for their Bold 9650 devices. They released 6.0.0.415 today. Hopefully soon, we will see an OS 6 release for Verizon Bold devices.

I bought a MacBook Pro I can not sign up for the updates, because I do not have credit card. Only own debit card, but the system does not accept. What can I do?
You do not need to "sign up" for downloading updates. Just run Software Update and let it access them directly thru the App Store.

Hi Franklin777,
If you are having issues with your Apple ID, this article will get you started.

The rescue email address is a different address than the one you use for your Apple ID.

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.

Hello. I have adobe forms and received the alert that it will be ending in July. Then I received an email about Adobe Acrobat XI Pro which can create forms. I signed up for the free trial and when I began to make a new form it brings me back to Adobe Forms. My question is, when Adobe Forms ends on July 28th will Adobe Acrobat XI Pro be able to create forms or will it now? and if not, then why is adobe advertising for it still?
What you're calling "Adobe Forms" is really Adobe FormsCentral. The FormsCentral service is indeed going away soon, but you can always create PDF forms (AcroForms) with Acrobat. Acrobat also comes with a desktop version of the FormsCentral desiger, which can be used to create simple PDF forms that can be used apart from the FormsCentral service. So you'll no longer be able to create and host web forms with the FormsCentral service or use PDF forms with the FormsCentral service. You will be able to create standalone PDF forms with Acrobat and simple PDF forms with the FormsCentral desktop app.

I have an Apple ID and trying to sign in for the 1st time on iTunes. When I do, I get the message: "This Apple ID has not been used with the iTunes Store. Please review your account information." When I do, it brings me to the same AppleID login window, and I get stuck in the same loop. I never get to the following screen to enter my account info. What's going on?? This is MADDENING!
If you want to use it, click Review and check your account information. Or you could contact the store support staff if you are concerned at http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html for further help.

Signed up for the Technical Communications Suite Subscription yesterday. Now when I launch FrameMaker, I get a dialog box saying I either have to use it as a trial version (for 30 days) or buy it. If I click buy it prompts for a serial number.
On installation when I tried to access my adobe account in the dialog box that appeared. It said I didn't have an internet connection. My internet was working fine and I got the same message even once I launched my browser.Did you install using an account with admin privileges? Do you have any Group or other security policies on machine that may restrict new software installs?
For installation issues, it's best to contact customer support. -
Account error - Can't sign up for Xbox Music Pass
Hi there, when I try to sign up for the 30 day trial of Xbox Music Pass, I receive the following error, regardless of browser/PC used. It's been going on for several days. I have been in contact with a live support technician, and was directed here
after some testing confirmed that it was an account specific issue (we created a test account and I was able to sign up successfully with the test account).
Error:
Uh oh... that shouldn't have happened.
It appears you've found a glitch in the system.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!Definitely it's an account related problem but this can only be corrected by the official support staff,alternatively you can create another account (which you have already done).

I setting my Apple ID already, bud can't sign in for verify it help me please for verify it
Here's an updated set of instructions you can try:
Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID. If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going 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. (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.) Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID). Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless using iCloud Photo Library). When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) 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 back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device). -
Any suggestions?
Hi and keep safe!
My links to websites are much more basic (when I first read this I hoped Texas Mac Man would respond to you and he did!)
My guess is you probably have wireless where you are and might have a computer, but not knowing for sure...
We set my husband's up this Summer, and for whatever reasons used my Apple ID and itunes so he could share our itunes libraries (already paid for shows and movies) and cd's I uploaded to my mac.
So you might be beyond this basic stuff, but it might help.
Also, please note that you can now set up an itunes account without a credit card. If you decide to do that, you can ask family at home to buy itunes cards and give you the #'s without having to mail them to you because you might or might not get them.
You can download a manual at Apple.com which might help you with any problems you encounter.
You will need to sync your ipad with your computer.
If you have/had an ipod, mac book, etc., you're apple id on your ipad will be the same. A couple of weeks ago our younger son bought an ipad before he went back to school. He could not create accts, etc., but then realized he was already set up with his ID from when he got his very first ipod years ago.
Sign up for the cloud for back-up.
Get find my ipad - free app in App store.
And get gotcha (not sure where - my son's looking into it.) But if someone takes your ipad and turns it on, a picture of him/her is automatically e-mailed to you and you can go from there to hopefully retrieve it.
So please check out

Hope this helps, and again, keep safe. -
I keep getting error messages when I try to activate iMessage on my iPad since installing iOS7. Anyone else having this issue or a solution. I can obviously sign in with the same Apple ID information/password as I have done here and I am connecting with Wifi now and in all other apps.
After looking at some other posts I signed into iTunes and edited my password with my Mac. Then I powered off and restarted my iPad and all is good now.

Someone is using my personal email address for their apple ID and I'm sick of it! I can't sign up for my own itunes account or anything using MY OWN email address. My email address is my property, not theirs.
I'm using their account and will continue to reset their password and settings until they either get the message or Apple do something about it and disable or migrate their account so that I can use MY OWN email address for my own purposes.
I don't want to be informed about Apple products and services for someone else on my email account.
I want to be able to use it MYSELF for iTunes
All I am asking you to do is migrate their apple ID to their alternate email account settings and free up my email address so that:
A. I can use it and B. I stop getting messages about their account history.
Either that or just cancel their account as they have no right to use my personal details.
Yes I could set up a new email address but WHY THE **** should I? I've been using this email account for years for personal stuff, it's not mu fault if someone can sign it up as an AppleID without me being able to confirm their sign up process!
Your move Apple, make it count.Hi Sister Kate,
If you change the Apple ID you are using on an iPhone or other iOS device, there are several places you need to change it on the device. See this article -
Apple ID: What to do after you change your Apple ID
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

I have downloaded several books into ibooks. Started reading one and closed it when I was done reading for the day. Now I want to access other books and when I open ibooks it goes directly to that first book. It does not give me the shelf to choose what book I want to read - goes directly to the first book. What can I do? Help please.
There should be a Library button on the top left. If not ap the middle of the screen to get it to appear.

Can't sign up for 1GB $20 Verizon Data Plan on the Ipad
I have a 32GB Verizon iPad2. I have tried repeatedly to sign up for the 1 GB $20.00 Verizon Data Plan but when I click on the Next button after filling out all of the account information (including selecting the 1GB level plan) a summary account screen flashes that shows that I have selected the 10GB $80 plan!! Then in about 2 seconds that screen disappears and the terms and conditions screen appears with the options to Back or I Agree, or Cancel the screen altogether. So I either Back or Cancel. I have called Verizon--they have no idea. Called Apple and they had me set up a Genius Appt. Anyone else having this problem? Just received the iPad this past Tuesday.
Well now I have 3G service. This is what I did since I posted this question. I got iPad2 the Missing Manual and started reading it. It very clearly said that after you fill in the account information, you get the terms/conditions screen and then you get a summary of the account and a chance to change it before you finally agree. So I decided to do it again, and this time ignore the screen that says I want the $80.00 plan. And yes, it then took me to the account summary page and there was the 20.00 plan and 1 GB! Yeh!! I have just tried it and it works and I then shut it down brought it back in the house and it is now on the WiFi. Go figure what that flashing page is doing!
