Can anyone help w/Apple ID/email issue

Oh man, I hope someone can answer this for me. It's driving me NUTS!!!
I have an Iphone 4, I installed the update a few days ago and everything seemed fine. Until I went to install a new app and "the phone asked me to" enter my password for my Apple ID. I did but it kept telling me "incorrect, retry"
Then, I realized the problem, I WAS entering the right password, but my email adress on the account isn't mine. It's someone else's and I can't find how to change it to mine on the phone.
I love you forever to whoever can help me LOL

IOS 5: Settings > Store > Apple ID > sign out and sign in with the correct Apple ID.
IOS 6: Settngs > iTunes & App Store > Apple ID> same as above.

While updating iphone software to 5.0.1, I am getting error message that Iphone cound not be updated because the firmware file is not compatible. Can anyone help me to resolve this issue.

While updating iphone software to 5.0.1, I am getting error that Iphone could not be updated because the firmware file not compatible.
Can anyone help me to resolve this issue.

Using iTunes 10.5.2.11 on a PC running 64 bit Windows 7
First did a full back up of iphone using iTunes
Put iphone into Recovery Mode ( http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 ). Erases all user data and settings!
Disconnected USB cable from iphone
Powered off iphone by holding down Sleep/Off button until slider appeared, slid to off, waited until screen dark
Pressed and kept holding Home button while plugging cable back into phone
I still saw the graphic on the iphone that said to plug into iTunes, so I unplugged and re-plugged cable. (I may have released the Home button too soon)
Recovery Mode alert came up in iTunes.
Followed all iTunes prompts to restore phone - it downloaded and sucessfully installed iOS 5.0.1
iphone did not appear in iTunes due to missing pairing file (that made me nervous)
iphone was now at factory settings. I followed prompts on iphone screen to start reactivation process
Eventually the iphone asked if I wanted to restore from a back-up (whew!)
A window opened in iTunes and I was able to select my previous back-up file for the restore
A full restore from back-up then occured
I also allowed a carrier settings update to occur when prompted (not sure that happens in all cases)
When the restore was done I had to re-enter some passwords, but everything was there
iOS is now 5.0.1 (9A406). The whole process took about an hour.

Can anyone help? No incoming emails are appearing in my Inbox, but appear in the Gmail All Mail box. This is occurring on both my iphone and ipad.even if I delete an email, it reappears here. Slowly driving me mad! All help appreciated

Can anyone help? No incoming emails are appearing in my Inbox, but they turn up in the Gmail All Mail box.
Even if I delete an email it pops up again here. This is happening on both my ipad and iphone4s and is gradually driving me mad.
Any help would be much appreciated.

All I had to do was complain. I synced my iPhone to the Windows machine, checked the other account at iTunes prompting (where no apps had shown up previously), reconnected the iPad, and 140 apps downloaded including the App Store. I have no idea why.

My iPad s frozen with only iTunes icon and usb cable showing and cannot access anyhting. Can anyone help? - Apple won't

Since receiving a iOS software update (6.1.2) my iPad has frozen and only the iTunes icon and a usb cable show on screen. I am unable to access any App. Can anyone help or point me in the right direction. this was raised with Apple and ticket number advised on 3rd March but not a word from Apple since.
Thank you

Try and turn off iPad/iPod and proceed to step 3 of Recovery Mode.
Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

Can anyone help me with sufficient privileges issue

Can anyone help me with sufficient privileges issue

Helping with permissions often requires we know the specific error you find: what program, for example, and what you were doing when told you didn't have privileges.
If you are running a standard account, you have to get back to the admin acct to make changes. If you are not eh administrator for that computer, find out who is.
If you are in an admin account, trying a "Repair Permissions" can sometime resolve the issues. Find Disk Utility in Applications > Utilities. Select the indented name of your hard drive, then click the "Repair Permissions" button:
In OS10.4 this usually under a 2-minute operation. You will probably see a lot of entries in the Reulsts pane but you can ignore those.

Can anyone help me with a passcode issue on my iphone4?

I have an old ipone 4 that i forgot the passcode for. I actually want to clear it out and give it to my son to use as an ipod. I kept trying to enter remember and now it is telling me to try again in 60 minutes. When I try to hook the phone up to my computer/ itunes it is telling me i need to unlock the phone.. can anyone help?

Unless you can remember your passcode, there is no other way to get into the device. Your only other option will be to restore you iPod.

Can Anyone Help? Upgrade with Windows Issue

I bought my daughter a Ipod nano for Christmas this past year (2005). Everything worked great until the new 6.0 upgrade. We downloaded the upgrade last week and it was completed successfully. Yet when I go to my desktop and try to go to the site I get nothing at all. I can't even access the itunes site. Can't even access it through apple.com. I get the download message. I spent hours on the phone with apple trying to figure out the problem. Uninstalled and reinstalled the whole thing several times. Even went back to my original CD that came with the ipod and still get message that I need to upgrade. I was told
( by an apple rep) I have to do a msconfig start up on my computer for the upgrade to work on Windows. Upon doing that I can access my library but access to store is denied. I called apple again and was told they have no idea what is going on but it has to do with the upgrade and windows. I was basically told I may want to consider selling my Ipod, by a apple tech. Is anyone else having this problem. I just want to know how to get the upgrade using windows xp and be able to use it without having to msconfig start and then still not be able to access anything.
I have tried everything, from shutting down my firewall, anitvirus to rebooting my computer back to before I ever put Itunes in it since I was unable to un-install it with the add/remove on my computer.
Can anyone give me some advice on how to get this to work with windows? It would be greatly appreciated since I have a few friends also having the same issues. Thanks

Don't give up yet. At this point I would suggest cleaning your system with ipod and itunes software and reinstall. I know you tried this before but I'm going to give you more detailed instructions. Please read them carefully first before doing them and ask questions if you don't understand them. Also don't skip anything and be careful to not skip part of a step.
1. Uninstall itunes and ipod software
2. Reboot your PC
3. Re-download the itunes installer and QT and save this installer to your desktop
4. Go to C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Installations. You should see folders like {06EB3288-C5F4-4C73-8EEE-AC798668FF66}
5. Look in each of these folders for itunes.msi and delete the folder. Be careful to only delete the folders containing itunes.msi
6. Clean out your the following folders, Delete as much as you can in these folders except for the folders Cookies, History, Temporary Internet Files.
a. C:\windows\temp (if one exists)
b. C:\Documents and Settings\{username}\Local Settings\Temp
Sometimes installers will pick up old files or won’t delete their temporary files.
Also delete c:\program files\itunes & c:\program files\ipod
7. Go to http://www.download.com/3000-2094-881470.html and download the regcleaner. Unpack it and run it. This is a nice utility that will delete broken registry entries and create a file with them. This way if it deletes anything needed you can add it back. Note I never had to do this with using it for many years. Also it doesn't list XP but you'll be fine. I run XP on both.
8. Reboot your PC.
9. It wouldn't hurt to scan your PC for viruses at this point.
10. Now try to go and install everything again. I'd do QT first then follow with itunes. Remember to disable virus/firewall/privacy/web accelerators before launching the install.
You don't have to try the QT if you don't want to but if you do make sure you do it first before itunes and ipod software.
I hope this helps! Let me know what happens.

Can anyone help out with an ongoing issue?

I have been informed by Apple that my ISP is allowing my computer to be accessed remotely via some type of bridge support or ad hoc network! I have tried to remain proactive w/ addressing this issue but things have been frustratingly tumultuous within my county for some time now. It seems as if a business is assumig co ownership of my MacBook, That being said I know all stems from my ISP and their ability to manipulate my network! Can anyone offer any suggestions? I have been informed my best route is to sell my devices and leave this small minded county in my rear view, That's my plan moving forward but I don't want my computer os phone to be compromised repeatedly!

How did Apple inform you of this, it s a most unusual move on their part (in fact it is the first time I have ever heard it)
Unless you have sharing enabled and sharing services turned on this is highly unlikely (if another person has physical access to your Mac not so unlikely)
What makes you think that some other person has control of yor Mac?

Can anyone help out with an I issue that is showing on my iPhone?

Recently I discovered I was running version6.13 (10B329)
Can anyone explain what this is and how it ended up on my iPhone?

That simply indicates the build number (sub-version, sort of) of the software, and takes into account beta and test builds. From a user standpoint, it doesn't mean a great deal. There would have been only one "build" available for your device.

IOS5 has wiped EVERYTHING, texts, emails, photos, contacts, music - can ANYONE help as Apple dont seem to bother

i have spent the past 24 hours (so far) attempting to download & use IOS5. First i got a message saying i have "error OxE8000065" then another message saying "iTunes was unable to load data class of information from Sync Services" and once, it was kind enough to download for 3 hours then said it had "timed out". I have now FINALLY got this IOS5 downloaded. what a mistake. I have also lost everything - music, texts, contacts, photos and do not know how to get this back. any ideas? if so, plz keep it simple as im no expert at these phones. i am on the verge of thowing this phone out the window and getting a blackberry or anything else to save this endless updating & losing data

Just connect the new iPod to your computer and setup the iPod via iTunes (instead of via wifi).
If you want to copy all the infor from an old iPod touch to the inew iPod see:

Can anyone help with my broad band issue please?

Hi all, I'm leaving this message here in desperation as I really don't know what else to do apart from cancel my contract with BT.
I had broadband and a phone line installed on the 26th of May and though the phone line went live straight away, the broadband has not worked. An engineer visited, advised the issue was at the echange and late called my partner to see if the blue light on the hub had come on. She confirmed it had and the engineer than closed the call.
I arrived home that evening to try and use the broadband and connected but the speed was abysmal.
I then ran a speed test which informed me my download speed was 0.38mbps. Obviously this speed is not worth paying for.
I called again to report the poor speed and was told an engineer would visit this morning between 8 and 1. My partner booked this time off from work but the engineer did not turn up. I spoke to the online service to report this and they said they could not see an appointment had been booked. I remembered to print off my previous online conversation with them and even quoted the reference number for the booking. They then said there was a technical issue at their end.
They have rebooked for next Monday and unless they resolve it there and then I can't see any other option but to cancel the whole thing.
I am so frustrated at the last of customer service and the fact I have to talk online to someone who is very apologetic but not able to help. I can't believe I can have a service installed on the 26th of last month and it still is not working!
And the fact that my partner has twice booked half days for the engineer appointments is just bad luck?
If anyone has any help or knows anyway to expedite the issue or speak to anyone with enough authority to log a complaint I'd be most grateful. Thank you

from the speed can I assume that it was adsl (copper) and not fibre connection?
which hub do you have?
can you enter your phone number and post results remember to delete number https://www.btwholesale.com/includes/adsl/main.html

TS1474 can anyone help me in resolving my issue please?

whenever i connect my iphone 4s running ios7.0.2 to my laptop window 7 running latest version of itunes, it displays a message "an iphone has been detected but could not be recognised.disconnect it than reconnect it later" why is it so? my iphone is not being connected to itunes? previously it was connecting properly. this issue started even before updating my iphone to ios7.how it can be fixed now?? any suggestions please!

If you have access to a different USB cable, that would be well worth a try. Otherwise, you could Reset the iPhone and see if that helps. Hold down the Sleep button and the Home button at the same time until the Apple logo appears then wait for the Reset, returning your iPhone to the lock-screen. Now try rebooting your laptop and then connecting the iphone to the USB cable, then the cable to the best USB port available. If you have two or more USB ports on your computer use a different one than you have been using.

After upgrading iOS5, my apps were deleted. Truing get them back, and only partially, the other apps, apple store is changing me again. Tried to restore and and sent an error. Now the Ipad won´t even boot. Can anyone help, besides Apple?

The iOS5 erased all my apps. Went to get them back and only part of it was recognized by Apple store. The others the store prompts to pay. I tried to go back to the old system and restore but as it was in sync an error ocurred and now I don´t have even the operating system. It won´t rebbot. I am afraid it will not stop searching the booting system until batery is dead and it will take many hours.
Any chance somenone ran into the same problem that could help?

The only people who can possibly assist you with this is Apple Customer Relations, call your local Apple contact number and ask for Customer Relations then explain your situation clearly and politely (be firm but don't rant).
You might want to investiage what the local laws are regarding defective goods and 'fit for use' definitions on warranties etc. Consumer Protection can be a useful tool to use or bargain with if needed ...
