Can you change Apple ID?
We now have an ipad, iphone and iTouch in our house but are using the same Apple ID. i am tired of getting the kids songs and apps and they are tired of mine! How change Apple IDs on these devices and do taht mean everyone needs their own itunes acct? Does this mean that those who change ID will lose their purchases?
The boys do tend to share some songs and itunes gift cards - I don't know if that is possible?
Thanks
Christine
Anything Downloaded with a Particular Apple ID is tied to that Apple ID and Cannot be Merged or Transferred to a Different Apple ID.

How do you change apple id for icloud if phone is already set up. Need to give each phone in my account their own apple id for icloud so that we dont receive each others messages but can still all use same id for purchases.
Settings-icloud-scroll to the bottom, select delete, if you want to keep the content select keep, otherwise it'll remove it. Then once it is done add the account information for the account you want on that phone. Your apple ID in settings-store will remain the same and each device can still purchase/use content from that account.

Can you change the email/username for Apple ID? I got my apple ID when i was younger and now have a different email address and dont ever go on my old email. I do not like that everything is linked to that email or that my computer now sendds people emails from my previous email instead of my current email. I want all things to be linked to my new email and my older email to be out of the picture! please help!!
Yes, you can update the primary email address on an account (as long as the address that you want to change to isn't currently a primary email address on another account) by logging into the account via the Store > View Account menu option on a computer's iTunes, by logging into it via the 'manage your apple id' button on http://appleid.apple.com, or by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Stores on an iOS device and logging into it

How can you change your security question for I tunes?
If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use -

Can you change the DEFAULT VIEW of a published iCal to MONTH VIEW?
Can you change the DEFAULT VIEW of a published iCal to MONTH VIEW? I use this for a vacation rental and people never ever ever ever need to see anything but the MONTH VIEW. I hate having to tell them to click MONTH view at the top of the page. Is there a way to force it to always appear in MONTH? Thanks!
ddotcom,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Unfortunately no, but if they are repeat viewers why not tell them to change their view to "Monthly" using the "Preferences" button on that page?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Start here, and reset your security questions, you will receive an email to your rescue address, use the link in the email and reset your security questions.
If that doesn't help or you don't have a rescue address, you might try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support -
How can you change the font size in the application and system headers?
How can you change the font size in the application and system headers? I searched the system and finder prefs to no avail. Changing the screen density is not a good option.
ThanksI downloaded Tinkertool. Found the font section and increased the size of most selections. The only thing that changed that I can see is the window label. The apple line, bookmarks line, the tool bar in safari are all the same---font size of about 4. Found the finder "show view options" but that didn't seem to change anything either. I'll keep working. Restarted all apps after changes as well.

Can you change the default font in an iPad mail account?
I suspect you can't, but just checking: can you change the default font in an iPad mail account?
There is no way to change the default font in the mail app. You can make the type larger by using the accessibility feature of larger text. Settings>General>Accessibility>Larger Text. There is an app that allows you to add fonts to the iPad, but I do not think this works with the built in iOS apps such as mail.
You can check it out.

can i change apple id to update a game? if its possible how i can change it? if its not possible why in this generation why its not possible?
You can't. All apps, and any other content from the store, are tied to the account that downloaded them, and they will remain tied to that account - so only the account that bought/downloaded an app can download updates to an app. Are you having problems downloading an app update via the app's own account ?

HT5622 how can we change apple id username...??
How can we change apple if username
You can change the non-Apple email address which forms your Apple ID and hence your login to the various facilities such as iTunes, iCloud and these forums - is that what you mean?
To do this go to http://appleid.apple.com and click on 'Manage your Apple ID'.
If you mean the user name which appears in these forums - melvinthms - you can't change that other than by obtaining a new Apple ID and signing into a new account in the forums. -
Can you change order of photos wihin an album?
Can you change the order of photos within an album?
Not natively in the iPad Photos app. Synced photo albums must be rearranged on the computer and then synced again. Camera roll photos can not be rearranged either. There are third party apps that allow you rearrange photos.
Look at Photo Sort for the iPad for one such app.

I'm sure there are others. Just search in the App Store. -
Can you change a black iPhone 5 case into the white iPhone 5 without buying a new phone?
Can you change a black iPhone 5 case into the white iPhone 5 without buying a new phone?
Apple does not have an exchange program.
By the time you purchase the required materials to change the case from black to white and the expense to do so, you would be better off selling the black iPhone and use the proceeds to purchase a white one. -
HT1531 Can you change the processor from PowerPC to Intel?
Can you change the processor from PowerPC to Intel?
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
It's not possible. Intel-based Macs use completely different logic boards than PowerPC-based Macs because chips are different (Intel-based Macs use EFI instead of Open Firmware, or PRAM instead of NVRAM), so if you want a Intel processor on your computer, you need a new iMac
