Cannot set guided access password on iTouch after IOS* update. How can I fix this?

We upgraded my daughters iTouch to IOS8. When I go into guided access to set the password, it will not accept it. It keep taking me back to the Set Guided Access Password each time. I will put in the 4 digits, confirm the 4 digits and it takes me back to the original scree that says Set Guided Access Password. How can I get this to work?

Try a reset: hold down the home button along with the power button until you see the Apple, then let go.

The hotmail address i use for my apple ID was hacked and i no longer have access to it, this is stopping me from accessing any of my icloud or itunes. how can i fix this?

Thanks, I appreciate the help. I think this is one of the problems Apple is creating by changing the OS so often. I had fomer colleagues at [a major aerospace contractor] who told me that so many original files were ultimately lost because of the deadly change in the "Save As" operation that they are now afraid of every OS update. Apple has badly damaged their support base with that very prominent company (they won't update now until they've fully examined and understand changes in the pre-conditioned nature of OS computer functions), and they are a whole lot less enthaled with Mac-related equipment/software. Can't blame them, I too used orginal files that way (as easy-to-use templates), and lost some important files before I realized what was happening (to late to revert). Companies should not have to retrain employees each time an OS gets an update, it's can be very expensive several different ways. They learned a painful lesson with that one. And because I'm now retired and don't use multiple devices, I need iCloud like I need a hole in the head... but I'm told there's no way to keep Apple out of my computer. Fortunately, because of major problems when initially installing Mountain Lion, one hold-over of the hardware/software damage I experienced was that iCloud can no longer access my computer even though everything else is working fine again. That was the only "good luck" I had as a result of that expensive nightmare.

HT1222 I cannot turn on my WIFI on my iphone ever since i updated my ios. How can i fix this?

The sad part is: the Mac Center in our country cannot do anything about the issue unless the phone is locked to the two major networks here. They only suggested to call apple's hotline or wait for the latest ios update. Unbelievable.

I have heard rumors that if you are trying to connect to a secured wifi network, and the PSK (pre-Shared Key) is too short, that the iPhone may not let you access your wifi. Some people have resolved this by setting a longer key on their wifi security settings on their routers. I have not had this issue, so I can't guarantee that will work, but it might be worth a try...

Recently I have been unable to access hyperlinks from my email account. How can I fix this?

Recently I have lost the ability to access hyperlinks from my email. Need help fixing this issue.

Try quitting Mail and then reset the iPad. Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

Apple iPhone 4S locked after Upgrade to iOS 7: How can i fix this?

My Sister got an iPhone with iOS 6 and wanted to upgrade it to iOS 7. We tried it via iTunes through the USB cable but something went wrong. I think iOS 7 downloaded correctly but, When the phone started up it had the message on the screen and the same one popped up in iTunes:
My sister had lost her old apple ID's password, so she had made a new one to use for iMessage and downloads from the App Store. The old one is still linked to the phone. We took it to our carrier's store and the IT guys said there was nothing they could do...
My point is this phone is brand new and the only thing wrong with it is the fact that it's locked. Is there at least a part in the iPhone we could change or something to get it back? or a factory reset?
Anything helps!

You have encountered the anti-theft Activation Lock. You must enter the required information which is the "old" Apple ID. You will have to try and recover the password here:
https://appleid.apple.com
If unable to do so, try to contact Apple Support:

Click "Other Apple ID Topics". If you are unable to enter the information, you iPhone is a brick.

I am not able to access website if i type them into the address bar or try to access them through the history list. How can I fix this?

The only way I can access webpages is if I search for them with search bar.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Fonts Become Unreadable in Mail after 10.4.11 Update - How can I fix this?

Just ran the 10.4.11 update and now my fonts are messed up in Apple Mail. 2nd machine to get this problem. The message was fine this morning before the update, and now the characters are the same, but in a different encoding or something. The message is unreadable.
I have no clue how this happened or how to fix it. Any suggestions appreciated (short of a system reinstall - I really hate that a lot!).

man... you should have a look at mine.

My new iMac had the old data transferred in-store but now it won't accept the password on the first screen. How can I reset this? I can't get past the first screen as a result.

I cannot get past the initial screen on my new iMac. Data was transferred from my old computer so when I turned it on It automatically had my name in the window and asked for the password, but none of my old passwords seem to be accepted. How can I fix this?? It's a new IMac with osx.

Which password isn't working? The one to access the iPad or the one to get your hotmail?
If hot mail, you go into the settings, mail, contacts and calendars and edit your hot mail account. Of if it won't edit, delete it off the iPad, then re-add it with the new password.

I forgot my password and now i'm locked out. how can i fix this problem?

I deleted my old email address and added a new one, after my iPhone died iCloud keeps popping up asking for the password of my old email address. I can't remember my password and the account is still gone, it pops up every few seconds. How can I fix this?

If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

Someone hacked my computer and set up a new administrative account by re-registering my computer. I can not access this account nor delete it. How can I fix this and get my computer back to the way it was?

Someone hacked my computer and set up a new administrative account by re-registering my computer. I can not access this account nor delete it. How can I fix this and get my computer back to the way it was? And also prevent this from being able to happen again. I have the link the kid used (http://www.ihackintosh.com/2009/05/how-to-hack-the-user-password-in-mac-os-x-wit hout-an-os-x-cd/) Apparently he used hack 2. HELP PLEASE!

Not sure why you can't delete that account. If you have admin privileges, you should be able to. Sounds like you only removed the Home Folder for that account.
You should highlight/select the account you want to remove and then click the minus button. Might need to unlock the padlock with your admin password.
Have a look at these articles from Apple, if necessary.
