Can anyone tell me what I need to set up iPhone 4? I have my email address and password but not user ID.  What is this?

Do I need a user ID to set up a new iPhone. I have email address and password but not sure what the user ID is?

User ID is an  Apple ID you use to buy paid or free stuff from the Apple Store, iTunes Store...
It is in no way essential to use your iPhone, but it is indeed needed to purchase/download free or paid Apps, songs, books and so on.
You can set-up a free Apple ID from your phone, or on →  https://appleid.apple.com

  • 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.

  • What do I do if my email address and password do not work?cc=us

    I am using Windows 7 and have an HP Officejet Pro L7680 All-in-One Printer.  When I open up the HP solution center and click on "Send a Fax"  - the computer will often not open the fax box.  I have had to re-install the Printer several times to make it work.  Any other ideas?

    Have you tried restating you computer and iTunes after you verified? You could also try logging on to the apple store online or logging out and back in of your account in iTunes

  • I have an apple ID and password but my ipad is broken and they say they can't get in because they don't have my i cloud password.  I never set one up and don't know what one is

    My I pad broke after only a few months and now they won't mend it as they say they can't get in as my i cloud password not working.  I never even set one up?  I have an apple id and password but that's not enough for them to get in.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    It's your Apple ID and password they want.

  • Cannot update apps.  It keeps asking for an old email address and password and I can't seem to get rid of it.

    I have everything running fine on my laptop with my new email address and password, but after using the sync feature, it still won't update the old apps on my iPad without using the old email.

    That is how it is supposed to work. Apps and purchased content are always tied to the Apple ID that you bought it with. You will have to continue to use the old ID and password in order to update those apps.
    You can sign in and out of the accounts in Settings>Store>Apple ID as needed.

  • Can anyone tell me how to change the names of the networks I have set up on Airport Express

    Can anyone tell me how to change the names of the networks I have set up on Airport Express please? I now work in a UN compound and my network is my own name, would prefer some anonymity so seeking to change the wifi network name that others might see.

    Hi mkl1961,
    Happy Holidays!  The article below will explain how to reset your Airport Express and change the network and base station names back to their defaults.  
    Resetting an AirPort base station FAQ - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT3728
    What default settings will my AirPort base station have after a hard or factory default reset?
    AirPort base stations are set to request an IP address by DHCP.
    AirPort base station passwords are "public."
    AirPort base station names revert to "base station xxxxxx," where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the wireless MAC address*.
    AirPort base station network names are "Apple Network xxxxxx," where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the wireless MAC address*.
    *A MAC (Media Access Control) address, also known as a "network ID," is a unique hardware identification number for a network port.  You can find the wireless and Ethernet network IDs on the printed label on the bottom or side of the device.

  • I am having a 3gs 8gb and can anyone tell how i could confirm that whether my iphone is factory unlocked or jailbreak??

    i am having a 3gs 8gb and can anyone tell how i could confirm that whether my iphone is factory unlocked or jailbreak??

    It sounds like you are most likely going to need a hardware repair.  If the phone is still in-warranty, you should be able to do this pretty easily by contacting AppleCare at 1-800-My-iPhone (1-800-694-4766) or taking your phone to an Apple Retail Store.
    The surest way to find out if an issue is software related is to restore the phone as a new device via itunes, then when prompted to choose between restoring from a backup and setting up as a new device, go ahead and disconnect the phone and test it before choosing one of those two options.  If the issue still occurs at this point, its not software related and the phone will need to be repaired.  However, if it did resolve the issue, you can plug the phone back into your computer and you will be prompted with the same options again, and may continue to restore from your available backup.
    Hope this helped!

  • HT201320 I have a iPhone 5c.  Wanting to set up an email account on the phone.  After entering email address and password it sets up an imap account automatically, when I need to set up a pop3 account.  What's happening?

    Have just purchased an iPhone 5c and have been trying to set an email account on it.  Under the menus I have gone in for an "Other".  Having enetered the email address and password the phone automatically sets up an IMAP account and I need it to be a POP3 account - I am not being given the option.  What is going wrong?

    POP3 is considered obsolete. In this age of multiple mobile devices, computers, etc. POP3 creates more problems than it solves. IMAP allows for full synchronization of the entire mailbox and all folders with all client devices. If you read a message on one, it will be marked as read on all client devices. If you delete it or move it on one, the change will be reflected on all devices (and the server, of course). POP3 requires that the message store be managed manually on all devices and can sometimes prevent you from being able to retrieve the message on more than one device at all.

    Sorry, there's no way around Activation Lock. So, give the phone back to your "friend", as you will never be able to use it.

  • Can not login with email address and password registered with HP

    I set up an eprint D110 at another location.  I am trying to send to that printer.  I can not login to eprint with the email address and password that I set up.  What do I do now?

    Hi there, are you having trouble logging into the ePrint Center at this point (see the image below)?
    If so, you can click on the Forgotten your password link where you will be prompted to enter the e-mail address you used to setup your ePrint Center account. If you can't remember the e-mail you used to setup the account you can do the following:
    From the display on your printers front panel remove web services by clicking Setup>Wireless>Web Services
    Once this is done, re-enable web services by following the same path. The printer should print an information sheet once you've re-enabled web services. This sheet will contain a new printer code. 
    In ePrint Center click the Sign-In button and then select the Sign Up option at the top of the box
    Go ahead and setup a new ePC account and when prompted enter the new printer code from the information sheet
    Your printer is now no longer attached to your old ePC account and will show up in the Printers section of your new account.
    Just be aware that the printer now has a new e-mail address so if you've shared the previous address with family or friends you'll need to let them now the new one.

  • I changed my Apple ID (other email address and password) and now I can not login to my account in the iPhone iCloud. When I open the tab iCloud displayed my old Apple ID (it was in the iCloud) and asks for a password, but neither the old nor the new passw

    I changed my Apple ID (other email address and password) and now I can not login to my account in the iPhone iCloud. When I open the tab iCloud displayed my old Apple ID (it was in the iCloud) and asks for a password, but neither the old nor the new password does not match. What to do?

    If you want to change your iCloud ID or password on your phone go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, then sign back in with your updated information.  Note: this only deletes the account and any synced data from your phone, not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing accounts it will be synced back to your device when you sign back in.

  • My apple id for icloud is linked to an invalid email address and i do not have the password for the account.  I need to delete the account to access my icloud on my iphone.  any ideas?

    my apple id for icloud is linked to an invalid email address and i do not have the password for the account.  I need to delete the account to access my icloud on my iphone.  any ideas on how to override this issue?

    If you updated the old ID at one point to create your current iCloud ID, 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.  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 iDevice, 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.

  • Can I remotely remove Apps from my iphone when not connected to iTunes. I have my apple ID and password. but my iphone is not in same wifi range

    Can I remotely remove Apps from my iphone when not connected to iTunes. I have my apple ID and password. but my iphone is not in same wifi range

    Sorry, not sure what you mean by remotely?
    You can remove apps from your phone without being connected to anything if you have the phone in hand. Were you speaking about something else?
    If not, then you just press on an app on the Home screen and hold it down until they all begin to wiggle. Apps that you can remove (non-Apple apps) have a little "x" in the top left-hand corner. Tap on that, and the app will be removed.

    Hi emm when i go onto imessage and facetime it asks me for my email address and password and i put it in then i wait 2 mins then it says please check your network and then try again then i check it and it is fine plz what do i do?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
