  • HT204053 My icloud is telling me that my apple id or password is no good I changed my email address recently and its still wants the password for the old one but when I enter it it doesnt work. When I go to icloud on my phone the page is frozen wont let m

    I am not getting my email verification for my icloud when I click icloud on my phone the screen is locked or something wont let me choose anything. its saying check my emil for verification but nothing is coming to my email

    If you still have access to your old email address, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email account and verify it.  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 iPhone on your device. Then 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.  You can now go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your correct iCloud ID and password.
    If you don't have access to your old email address, you will have to contact Apple to have them reset the password so you can disable Find My iPhone and sign into your iCloud account.  You can either go to https://expresslane.apple.com, select "More Products and Services", then "Apple ID", then  on the next page select "Other Apple ID Topics", then "Lost or forgotten Apple ID password" and click "Continue"; or you can contact Apple Support (http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/).

  • I used to share one apple ID/account with my ex but made a new one for myself recently and logged out of the old one but when I try to update my iBooks it asks for the old account's password(which my ex changed by now)

    I used to share one apple ID/account with my ex but made a new one for myself recently and logged out of the old one but when I try to update my iBooks (only happens with this app)it asks for the other account's password(which my ex changed by now). I don't understand why this happens when I'm logged into my account and it only happens with that app. Please help, I need to update. :/

    Content (apps, music, ibooks, films etc) is tied to the account that originally downloaded it, so if the iBooks app was downloaded using the account that you used to share with your ex then only that account can download updates to it. As it's a free app you could delete it and re-download it under your own account - and then re-download your ibooks into it (or copy the books to your computer's iTunes first via File > Transfer Purchases and then sync them back to the app).

  • HT4623 An Apple pop up keeps coming up anytime I try and use my phone and it has an old Apple ID and it is asking for the password. How do I get it to stop?

    That means there is content on your phone...music and or apps...originally obtained using his Apple ID. Such content is forever tied to the account used to originally obtain it and cannot be transferred to another Apple ID. Your only choice is to identify and delete this content.

    Update on my problem connecting in Itunes with my Airport Express. Not sure if anything I tried made a difference

  • TS1702 Changed my email (also Apple ID) and have a new iPad, now I can't update or use any of the apps that I purchased on my old iPad because it wants to use my old email (ID) how do I fix this. I have spent a lot of money of these apps!

    I changed my email address, which in turn, changed my Apple ID. I changed the settings of my iPad and things were fine for me, but my husband shares a few apps with me and isn't able to update or use any of those apps now. The change doesn't work for him. 
    Now, I got a new iPad mini and I'm having the same problem. I have purchased many apps which I can't use now. I have a lot of work documents saved to them too.
    Is there anyway that both husband and I can change the setting so we can access the apps we have already purchased?

    You have to be signed into the correct Apple ID in order to download those purchases again for free.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store. Tap the old ID and sign out, then sign in with the new/changed ID.

  • Made new Apple ID and is still asking for old that is not working, help

    Please help me with my Apple ID. We have made a new one because we could not think of our old one and nothing was matching when we tried to regain it. So I cannot update or download anything as it still asks me for the old ID password, I don't know!!! Please help

    IIf you are trying to activate a phone and it is asking for a previous users Apple ID and password you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature to prevent lost or stolen iPhones from being activated By an unauthorized individual. You must contact the previous owner to either get the Apple ID and password or have them remove the phone from Find My iPhone. If you cannot contact the previous owner you will not be able to activate the phone.

  • Apple TV stuck in restore in iTunes - message, "waiting for apple TV" and then nothing happens for hours.

    Hello having major issue with Apple TV, have searched the forums over the last week but can't find a solution that works.
    My ATV is not working when I had it  plugged into TV so I thought I would plug it in and restore it via iTunes. I have tried three different micro-USB (all of which work on other devices). So in iTunes I had downloaded the latest ATV software and it starts to restore the ATV (extracts/prepares/verifies) but the restore gets stuck on the part of "waiting for Apple TV" and then nothing happens, as in overnight nothing happens. I have tried using the remote to reset the ATV but nothing. The flashing light is constant.
    Anyone got an ideas on what to do when the restore doesn't work?

  • HT204053 I let my friend put his ipod on my itunes. I got a new iphone 5 and when i try to update apps,i put in my current apple id and then it asks for his apple id password, which i dont know and i want to get rid of his.

    When i try to update my apps, it asks me to put in my password for apple id. I put in my password but then it asks for my friends password for his itunes, because i let him sync his ipod on my itunes. How do i remove his account off my itunes where i dont have to put in his password.

    Also when I apply the safety copy it only imports the app the phones have had in common, so none of the apps that only the iPhone 4 had doesn't come in, only the ones I and the iPhone 4 has had in common. So you say the only way I can use the Apple ID to download on the old iPhone 4 is if I delete the apps that are in the phone and then download them again? How will that change the ID to download/update from. Won't it still have mine to update/download from?

  • HT5621 I created and apple id but want it to be a free apple id and it is asking for a credit card number. What should I do?

    I am trying to create a free Apple ID for my sister that has a learning disability. I created the account but it is asking for a credit card for which she does not have. What should I do?

    Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before. Make sure you specify a birthdate that results in being at least 13 years old

  • TS3297 i forgot my security questions answers, have a new apple computer and it is asking for the answers

    how do i reset my security questions

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address then see if the instructions on this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551
