Hey there Seve54,
It sounds like you need assistance with finding your Apple ID account name and resetting your password. The following article should help you find it named:
Apple ID: How to find your Apple ID
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5625?viewlocale=en_US
If you can't remember your Apple ID, follow these steps to look for it:
Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com) and click “Find your Apple ID”.
Enter your first name, last name, current email address, and any prior email addresses that you might have used to create an Apple ID. Apple uses this information to search for Apple IDs.
If no Apple IDs are found, follow the onscreen instructions to create an Apple ID.
If one Apple ID is found, choose whether to receive an email from Apple or answer security questions. Both options will conclude by asking you to reset your Apple ID password. Follow the instructions provided.
If multiple Apple IDs are found, select the one that matches your current email address. Then choose whether to receive an email from Apple or answer security questions. Both options will conclude by asking you to reset your Apple ID password. Follow the instructions provided.
And this article will help you reset the password for the account if you cannot remember it:
Apple ID: Changing your password
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5624
Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com).
Click “Manage your Apple ID” and sign in.
If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID. If you're unable to receive messages at your trusted device, follow the guidelines for what to do if you can't sign in with two-step verification.
Click "Password and Security".
In the "Choose a new password" section, click Change Password.
Enter your old password, then enter a new password and confirm the new password. Click Save when done.
The next time you use an Apple feature or service that uses Apple ID, you'll be asked to sign in with your new Apple ID password.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

IPad2 and a new MacBook running Lion, Both Devices use the same Apple ID which is a Hotmail eMail id. Can I create a new iCloud eMail Id and use iCloud eMail and continue to use my Hotmail Id for my Apple Id and use it for iTunes, iCloud

I have an iPad2 and a new MacBook running Mountain Lion. Both Devices use the same Apple ID which is a Hotmail eMail id. Can I create a new iCloud eMail Id and use iCloud eMail and continue to use my current Hotmail Id for my Apple Id for iTunes, iCloud.
Note, I will use both Hotmail and iCloud eMail.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")

How can I create a new iCloud account and transfer my apps?

I'm sharing an iCloud and iTunes account and want to have my own. Can I create a new iCloud account and transfer my contact list? If I keep the existing iTunes account with the new iCloud acct, can I reload my apps without purchasing them again? I understand I can create a new iTunes acct afterwards.

OK, so you can create a separate Apple ID for yourself that you use for your Messages, iCloud, Mail, FaceTime, etc. and keep the one that you have your Apps on as your iTunes "Family" Account.
Before you set up your new Apple ID, be sure to delete your iCloud account from your device: Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and delete the account. Save your Contacts on your phone so you can merge them with your new iCloud account. Your notes, and Photos will still be on your old iCloud account, but if you want to keep any of your photos on your new iCloud account, it would be a good idea to import all of your photos to your computer first, so you can selectively download them to your device. (Note: only your Photo Stream will go away when you delete your iCloud account. Your Camera Roll will stay in place. It's just a good idea to back up that Camera Roll to a computer or to your new iCloud account immediately once you have set it up.
You then would set up a brand new Apple ID for you under Manage your Apple ID: Apple - My Apple ID
Once you get it set up, go into your devices and sign off the following:
Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, click on your "Family" Apple ID and Sign Out
Settings>Facetime, click on your Apple ID and sign out
You will leave your "Familiy" Apple/iTunes ID signed on on the iTunes & App Store, becasuse you willl continue to share your iTunes account with the family. Here is a little more info about using two Apple IDs:
Using your Apple ID for Apple services
Once you have your new ID set up, go back into Messages and FaceTime and sign back in with your new ID
Also, go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your new ID, and be sure to "Merge" your contacts into your new iCloud account.
Post back with any questions!
Cheers,

Welcome to the Apple community Pammy.
Yes, that's exactly what I'd suggest for the vast majority of users.

Hey Hindfromlondon,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities. Since you are posting here, I take it you already have an Apple ID.
You can setup that Apple ID to work with iCloud. See:
Set up your Apple ID for iCloud and iTunes - Apple Support
And you usually want to stick with one Apple ID as having multiples can cause confusion (especially with purchases).
Frequently asked questions about Apple ID - Apple Support
What is an Apple ID?
An Apple ID is a user name you use for everything you do with Apple. Creating an account for an Apple service, such as the iTunes Store or the App Store, creates an Apple ID. Apple ID allows you to access other Apple services. You don't have to create a new account for each service—just use your Apple ID.
For a complete list of all of the places you can use an Apple ID, see Where do I use an Apple ID.
and further down:
I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.
If you are wondering how using multiple Apple IDs relate to iCloud, see Apple IDs and iCloud.
Regarding iCloud storage check out

I encourage you to read all about it as there's lots of information out there.

Can I create and use more than one repository on OVM 2.1.5

The version of Oracle VM I am using is 2.1.5 .
I wonder can I create and use more than one repository on OVM 2.1.5. Because I want to install different GOS on different disks.
I know in Oracle VM 2.2 we can use following commands to realize that.
a. #/opt/ovs-agent-2.3/utils/repos.py –n /dev/mapper/mpathxp1
b. #/opt/ovs-agent-2.3/utils/repos.py –r UUID
c. #/opt/ovs-agent-2.3/utils/repos.py –i
And other repositories can also be mounted and found under /var/ovs/mount/UUID.
But in Oracle VM 2.1.5, seems just one repository can be created and mounted. For example:
At first, I create a repository using mpath1p1:
a. # mkfs.ocfs2 /dev/mapper/mpath1p1
b. #/usr/lib/ovs/ovs-makerepo /dev/mapper/mpath1p1 C "cluster root"
c. I can find the repository has been mounted under /OVS.
But if I want to use "/usr/lib/ovs/ovs-makerepo /dev/mapper/mpath2p1 C "cluster root" to create another repository, and check the mount status using command "mount", these two disks are all have been mounted under /OVS.
"# cat /etc/ovs/repositories", only mpath1p1 with UUID was recorded there.
After reboot, only repository with mpath1p1 was mounted under OVS.
Can anyone tell me how to use more than one repositories on OVM 2.1.5. Do I have to install all the GOSs on the same disk and repository.
Thank you very much.

Now I've known how to create different repository. They will be mounted under /OVS/UUID. Thanks.

HT201441 how can i create and audio cd from a music track I have on my ipod

how can i create and audio cd from a music track I have on my ipod

This is how:
Go to:
'File'
'Share'
'Quicktime'
'Expert Settings'
'Audio as AIFF' or pick your brand of compression.
Drag and drop the resulting file into iTunes.
Enjoy!
P.S. - You didn't need to delete the video but I think that'll be okay.

Can I create folders into iCloud?

Can I create folders into iCloud?

Welcome to the Apple community.
I'm assuming that you are looking to create folders when storing iWork documents in iCloud. You can achieve this from an iOS device, by simply dragging one document on to another to create a folder into which they are both placed. After doing this, you can then rename the folder to the name of your choosing.

Can I create and manage collections in itunes instead of on the ipad?

Can I create and manage collections in itunes instead of on the ipad? I have hundreds (maybe thousands) of PDF files for technical work items that I need to categorize and use on my ipad but it is a bit cumbersome to manually move them one at a time on the ipad.

While you can add pdf files to iTunes it is not really intended to be used for organizing things other than a music collection. It will only accept PDF files and media (audio, movie) files. On the other hand if you can creatively come up with a way to make it work for you then go for it.

I downloaded the Acrobat 11 trial and I can open the product. During the install it deleted the existing print driver and did not install a new print driver so I CAN Not create and print pdf files.

How can I create a new iCloud account for a familiy member having a new iDevice and reuse one of my aliases for it

Hi there,
I moved into iCloud from the very beginning and started with one iCloud account for me and my family, making use of email aliases for family members. Now the number of personal iDevices grows and I want to create a new and separate iCloud Account for my son. The pity is, that I reserved his full name already as alias address on my initial iCloud account. If I now delete this alias, can I create a new account with the former alias as new primary email address?
Or is there at least any transfer procedure supported for aliases between different accounts?
Thanks for your help, lauterbachj

Couldn't agree more... the folks who are getting penalized for this are the early adopters of .Mac/iCloud dating from the days when the only way to implement a "family" account was to use aliases. Now all my kids' / my wife's name aliases sit in my account, unable to move. I guess the good news is that if I delete them nobody else will get them, but this seems a pretty poor consolation.
Would it really be so difficult to implement a "move this alias to another iCloud account" option that requires the "sender" and "receiver" to exchange some sort of code to implement the transation in order to prevent fraud?

Can I create folders in iCloud?

I have not used iCloud very much because I can't tell where my documents are. I know that sounds silly and I do know literally where they are. But it seems you cannot interact with them via a finder window. You must go through individual applications. However, I created a new document on my mac mini recently and when I opened my laptop several hours later it was sitting there ready to be worked on. This is a great feature and I am interested in using it further but not if I can't create folders and organize iCloud like the rest of all my files. Does anyone have any insights on Apple's plans for this?

I'm not sure about Apple's plans, but see the thread below for information on creating folders in iCloud.

Can you create folders in icloud docs ?

I would like to use icloud to store my documents etc. Like many people i have many documents stored in folders. It seems like my icloud store cannot create folders ? Is that correct.

On your device, just create the folder in the same way as you do with apps, i.e. drag one file icon on top of the other to create a folder, and name it whatever you like.
It can't be done from iCloud.com.

Can I create subfolders in iCloud?

Just started using iCloud today and although I've figured out how to create folders easily enough, I can't seem to figure out how to create subfolders. I have many hundreds of docs I'd like to store there, but without subfolders it's pretty well useless. Does anyone have any idea how to do this? Thanks!

miniman wrote:
Thanks so much Mr. Churchill. What were they thinking at Apple when they set iCloud up? Without subfolders its usefulness is severely limited and almost useless to someone like me with so many files to store. But thanks for the link to feedback - I'll certainly do that!
I think the intention of iCloud, as far as document storage goes, is to act as a service to allow synchronization of documents between individual apps on your computer that you use with specific compatible apps on your iOS device. It is not intended as general offline storage - it is intended merely as the means to allow access to select documents on multiple devices without the need for carrying or using physcial storage devices.
That is why the storage, even if purchasing extra space, is limited to a maximum of only 50GB (which BTW, box will give you for free for life if you use their iOS app), and why iCloud does not interact with Apple's own backup app (Time Machine). Also why the iCloud folders are somewhat obscured in OS X since you are expected to access iCloud documents via the Application used with those documents itself.
