Can I buy a U.S. iPad Air can I set it up as a Canadian account?

i Bought my mother an iPad Air from Kalispell, Usa, and I was curious why it won't let me get a game... It says cannot be accounted with a Usa account! Help she would love to get her games!

Hey Danica96,
It sounds like her Apple ID is logged into the wrong country. Check out the article below to walk you through changing the country of which the account is associated. Let me know if this helps.
Change the country of your iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, and Mac App Store account

We just got 2 iPad air today and Set up both with the same Apple ID, now I'm getting messages and FaceTime for my 13 yr old daughter. Do I have to create a different Apple ID for her?

We just got 2 iPad air today and Set up both with the same Apple ID, now I'm getting FaceTime and messages for my 12 yr. old. Do I have to set up a separate Apple ID for her to avoid this?

It's a trust issue. You can set them up so you don't receive each other's messages as long as you each have your own email address.
The trust issue is the fact that either of you can change the separation at any time via Settings by checking the appropriate (inappropriate?) email address.
To be absolutely sure you can never receive each other's messages will require two Apple IDs.

Greetings, everyone. I just bought an iPad Air and after setting it up, received the following email, which looks scammish to me.

Somehow I didn't finish my question. It was: Greetings, everyone. I just bought an iPad Air and after setting it up, received the following email, which looks scammish to me.(Partially reproduced below.) Or is it legitimate?
"You’ve taken the added security step and provided a rescue email address. Now all you need to do is verify that it belongs to you."

This is genuine if you have submitted Rescue email address (tap to enlarge)

Just set up my new ipad Air and cannot set up my gmail account into mail ?

Just set up my new ipad Air and cannot set up my gmail account into mail ?

EASY SIMPLE FIX....
The problem is Google.
I had the same problem, couldn't install Gmail on my ipad or iphone and kept saying wrong / incorrect password, error messages. Worked for hours and hours on this.
It is Google's (optional) 2-step verification system that is to blame.
Google won't tell you this, and instead, they have come up with work arounds, and even telling people to install the Gmail iPhone/ipad app, which then limites the iphone/pad functionality when not using iphone's native mail.
FIX:
Logon to Google...
Go into your Google account preferenes
DELETE your cell number used for 2-step verification...... leave it blank
(it is optional, Google does not require you use 2-step verification)
Thats it. Your'e done.
Now set up your Gmail (now called Google) as usual on your Apple device.
You don't need 2-step (optional) verification.
There are other secure ways to do this. It is an option, but Google goes out of it's way not to tell you this.
(and a great way for Google to gleen your personal information, in the name of security)
Hope this helps someone.

Just got a new ipad air and followed set up. have got a load of somebody elses photos! How do i delete these?

Just got a new ipad air. Followed set up instructions, but have a lot of somebody elses photos. How do I delete them please?

If its a NEW iPad, there should be nothing on it.
If you have photos from someone else, then its either a second hand iPad or possibly a Demo unit.
In which case you should return it as you may run into activation lock on a used iPad, or restrictions placed on Demo units you may not be able to bypass.
Whoever sold you this, did not sell you a new iPad.

Can you set up a new I Tunes account, but still use the same email address, as having problems with it keep telling me it has been disabled, no matter what I do to chnage the passwords, I haven't used the account since 2010?

can you set up a new I Tunes account, but still use the same email address, as having problems with it keep telling me it has been disabled, no matter what I do to change the passwords, I haven't used the account since 2010?

Hi eddinchina,
You should have no need to use the Old Sync account.
As long as device or devices are Firefox 29 or later (They should all be Firefox 30 now) you should use the New Sync.
You may use the same email address with both accounts.

How can I set up more than one iCloud account on my pc?

I would like more than one photo stream to save to my pc. I have an iCloud setup up on my pc so that my pc can save the photo stream pictures from an ipad and iphone (each have the same id). I also have a second iphone with a separate icloud/apple id, and I would like pictures from that photo stream to be saved to the same pc. Is this possible to do? I don't see any options to 'add an acount' in my iCloud control panel.

Any one user account on the Mac can have more than one iCloud account signed into, but only the first one set up will sync Calendars and Contacts. You would probably be able to enter the second account's server details manually into the Mail application to that it would access both accounts: setup details here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864
However the best way to do this is certainly for each of you to have your own user account on the Mac, setting up Fast User Switching to prevent having to keep logging in and out - then each account can set up the owner's iCloud account and do all the syncing and other facilities.

How can I set up 2 different iPhone 5 accounts on my PC?

My phone automatically up dates and opens iTunes when I connect it to my PC. My wifes iPhone does nothing.
she has an Apple ID. When I connect her phone to the PC and open iTunes it only showes my phone content.
So how can I set up a seperately managed account on my PC for her?

I suggest setting your wife up with her own login on the PC. There are other ways, but this would be the cleanest, in my opinion.
If you do this, she can use her own iTunes, her own Apple ID, etc.

How can I set up more than one iCloud account on a single Mac?

I just want to start with the very basics. My wife and I each have an iCloud account. We both want to check our iCloud e-mail in the Mail Application without user switching. Is this possible? How do we set it up? Is it also possible to each manager our own calendars (iCal) and contacts (Address Books) without user switching? Put aside all iTunes issues for now. Just worried about iCloud: two iCloud IDs. One Mac.

How can I set up a "receive only" email account in Outlook 2010

I have an Outlook 2010 email account that receives emails from a "Fax-to email" service, and I'd like to make that accout "Receive Only". Is it possible to do that, and if so, how.
Capt. Dinosaur

Hi
As per the information and details provided by you, to set up a
“Receive Only”email account in Outlook 2010, please follow these steps: -
You have a few options available to you. You can set up the account with
a fake SMTP server name and configure the Send/Receive group to not send mail from this account, or you can use a different, valid account for the Outgoing server, just in case you accidentally use the wrong account when you compose a message.
First, create the account in Outlook: -
Fill the name and address fields with the desired information. Select
POP3 account type and enter the incoming server name.
In the Outgoing server field, type
nomail.
Enter the correct username and password for the incoming mail account.
If you want to verify the incoming server is correctly configured, click on
Test Account Settings, and then choose the dialog after the incoming server is verified.
Deselect the option to
Automatically test account settings when the Next is clicked.
Click on the
Finish to return to Outlook.
Because Outlook will error on every manual send and receive when it can not find the outgoing server error, you need to change the
Send and Receive Settings for this account.
Press
Ctrl+Alt+A to open the Send/Receive Settings dialog. (or you can go to
Send/Receive tab, Send/Receive Groups and select Define Send/Receive Groups.
Click the
Edit button.
Select the receive-only account, then deselect
Send Mail Items.
Click on the
OK, then Close to return to Outlook.
I hope this information will be helpful for you.
Thanks and regards

HT201441 Can't set up iPhone as old iCloud account is locked out even though device removed!!!

My Mums iphone has been removed from its original iCloud account and a factory reset performed.
I want to connect it to a new iCloud account (for my Dad), but when setting it up, it asks for the original iCloud account.
When I enter the original account details in correctly, it says "Incorrect Apple ID, [email protected] cannot be used to unlock this iPhone."
I can still log into iCloud with the original account on my PC and under "find my phone" is says no devices are connected.
"Set up your iCloud account on an iPhone, .... to use Find My iPhone"
Of course, I can't do that as I'm in an endless loop of going nowhere, locked out of my own device.
I've tried using my wireless network and itunes with the same result.
HOW CAN I CONTINUE TO SET UP AND ACCESS MY PHONE???
I expect I'll have to make a special inconvenient trip into town to the Apple store. So much for user friendly!

from Apple's web site - I tried these first and then other combinations:
• Server name: imap.mail.me.com - also tried using the p03- before that which was in my Mac's settings for this account, also tried using the p03- in the IMAP prefix field
• SSL Required: Yes - I also tried the 3 other available settings, including TLS and accept all for both SSL and TLS
• Port: 993 (also tried TLS / 143)
• Username: The name part of your iCloud email address (for example, emilyparker, not [email protected]) - I also tried using that with both @mac.com and @me.com as part of user name
• Password: Your iCloud password
I could not get past this stage with the stock / default Android mail app. However, Aqua Mail allows me to enter both incoming and outgoing server settings before connecting (which both fail).
SMTP information for the outgoing mail server
• Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
• SSL Required: Yes - I also tried the 3 other available settings, including TLS and accept all for both SSL and TLS
• Port: 587 (also tried SSL / 465)
• SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
• Username: Your full iCloud email address (for example, [email protected], not emilyparker) - I also tried using that with both @mac.com and @me.com as part of user name
• Password: Your iCloud password

How can I set up filters on my mail accounts on my iPad?

I want to put filters on my email when using my iPad so as to suppress spam and other undesirable messages. How do I do this?

You can't do it with the Mail app, you need to set any filters before the emails arrive on the iPad - does your email provider have any settings that you can enable if you log into your account via a browser ?

Can't set up mailbox for fourth email account on Mail?

I have a Macbook Pro - Mid 2009 - 2.53GHZ, 4GB and 250GB HD.
Running OS version 10.6.8.
My specific question is this I am using Mail 4.6 and have already set up a primary email account and through time I have added an additional 3 email addresses. they are all from the same ISP. No problems so far until recently when I created a new email address through my ISP and tried to create a new mailbox on mail. For whatever reason I cannot access the new account and I have done the following steps:
Made sure email address was correct and password too.
Checked working mail preferences against the new email account
Deleted one of the old working email mailboxes
Phoned the ISP support and they checked everything
Can access emails on the ISP webmail account
Checked that SSL option was unchecked which it was
After numerous phone calls to the ISP they have advised that I should phone Apple Technical support.
As this computer is quite old I would need to pay £35GBP for this support.
I cannot fathom why the previous mailboxes would work and now why subsequent new email accounts cannot be created on Mail.
On previous mailboxes there would be a separate trash box for each account and in this case when I create a new account this is not created.
Also the mailbox is greyed out and there is a warning symbol next to it.
Does anyone have any ideas?
P.S I am thinking of upgrading to a Macbook Pro Retina and wonder if there is a simple way of transferring my saved email folders to my new mac?

Both of these are wrong.
I finally set up .me.com on my Mac
The same settings on my ipad are not working.
AppleCare had to walk me through a bizarre set of steps
Those same steps apparently are different on an ipad
But .mac, .me account that exist can migrate with all you old aliases.
I will try to remember to log back in here and answer this when apple calls me in a few hours
