I need to update my apps in the App Store, but when i try to update, the Sign Up Apple ID pop up box came out with different Apple ID. How can I change it to mine? My iTunes Store already login with my own Apple ID.

It's a seriously bad idea to post your email address and phone number - it's an invitation to spam - and I've asked the Hosts to remove them. No-one is going to phone or email you. This is a user-to-user forum and no-one here can take any actual action to help you.
If the phone is locked to a particular carrier only they can unlock it. You would have to contact Telstra and ask whether the phone is locked to them and if so whether they are willing to unlock it - they may not be. Apple can't do it for you.
If your phone is asking for your Apple ID does it do so by giving part of an Apple ID? Is the ID in question yours? Did you buy this phone new or second-hand? Please quote exactly any error messages you are getting.

Will iBooks ever be an Apple App from the Mac App Store?

Will iBooks ever be an Apple App from the Mac App Store?

Apple does not offer any sort of ibooks/epub reader for OSX , but there are 3rd party apps available and even freeware to import/export from pdf into epub,mobi,kindle and vice versa ( google "calibre" +"epub" ) . I personally love this Mac app called "BookReader" ( MacAppStore ) , which resembles the iOS ibook experience to the best in my oppinion . If Apple would have had such a tool it would most certainly be of this sort :

I need to know how to change the identity (email address) used for the iTunes store as I no longer use that email.

Settings > iTunes & App store.
Tap AppleID, sign out then sign back in.
The Apple ID is right everywhere else. I've synced the phone. I've reset it in Settings on the phone. I've changed it at Apple.
When you write, "I've changed it at Apple, this means you updated yoru old AppleID or you ceated a new AppleID?

Deleted the app in the dock that compiles all your open files and fans them out as icons. What is it and how do I get it back?

When I bought my macbook pro, I deleted the app in the dock that complies all your open files together. When you click on the app it fans all the icons out. What is that app called and how do I find it again/get it back??
Thanks!

okay... got that...but before I deleted it, it would "fan" all my open web pages, or open PDF files. So they were in a little folder as opposed to lined up beside my trash bin?
make any sense?

I recently purchased an old iMac G3 Macintosh. I was wondering, is there a way where I can update it without using an external disc? I've seen the newer Apple products with the dock, if I update my iMac G3, will it have that, and if so, how can I do that?

If you mean the iMac does not have an internal optical drive capable of reading DVDs, the only option requires another Mac with a DVD-capable drive and FireWire ports. Your iMac G3 will also require FireWire ports. Not all G3 iMacs have Firewire. FW started with the Summer 2000 models with 400mHz and faster processors.
With FireWire, you can use FireWire Target Disk mode to install from a retail OS install DVD in another Mac. If you supplemental info info tells us if you have another Mac with a DVD reader and the FW ports, we can walk you through the process.
If the iMac has a tray-loading drive, I'd forget it. They are very limited not only in the OS max (10.3.9) but also in RAM capability. Starting with the slot-loading iMac G3s, the max RAM increased to 1 GB (2 X 512MB modlules). Tiger likes 1GB RAM.
Understand that pre-Intel Macs are getting harder to use. Even with 10.4.11, your choice of browsers is limited (TenFourFox is the most viable option) and the G3s rudimentary video hardware means web browsing will be choppy at best.
If you are in the USA, you can try calling the Apple Store (1-800-MY-APPLE) for an OS disk. As recently as Jan 20, someone posted here that they were able to buy Tiger by calling. It was not clear whether the disks were replacement system install/restore disks or full retail install, but it's a free call.
When you do "About this Mac" to check teh OS verion, also look at the processor speed and tell us what that says. That can help with recommendations for an upgrade path.

I drag my app.to the dock , there is no icon, just the label and it works, don't know where it went

i drag my app.to the dock , there is no icon, just the label and it works, don't know where it went

Hello, do you have a screen shot of that?
Is it possible it didn't quite make it to the dock & dropped on the Desktop?

Blue dot by the apps on the dock

So on my Messages and Safari app on the dock of my Macbook Pro there is a little blue dot under it. I'm aware that these dots are there to indicate that the apps are active but they're still there even when i exit out of the apps. I don't know what to do so I was wondering if anyone else had a reason or a solution to my problem.

Choose Quit from the application's menu or by clicking and holding on the Dock icon. An application can be running when it has no windows open.

If i purchase apple tv in the state can i use it in Europe?

Hello Communitie Pepole.
My son has the third-generation AppleTV to my surprise it work right off the bat it was perfect, it mirror my MacBook Pro exactly identical sharp.
So now my question, is if I decided to purchase apple tv in the state can i use the power voltage in Europe?
Is it Universal?
Thank You. Jean-Michel.

Bienvenue à la communauté Apple.
Yes, Apple TV can be used anywhere, despite its voltage. The only difference that you will see is the difference between the iTunes store itself and any localised services, such as the NHL channel for example.

Is there a way to move my calendar, reminders & iMessage apps from the dock to the menu bar?

Workspaces are stored as XML files in your user profile on Windows or the user library on Mac, in a subfolder called, strangely enough, workspaces.
You may have run afoul of the new "content grabber" in the center of a frame that allows you to move the content without changing tools. Looks sort of like a dounut, or the center spot on some SLR camera focus viewfinders. You'll either love it or hate it, and it can be switched on or off in the View menu.

Do I need to keep my apps on my Mac in iTunes if they are now in iCloud?

Can't I throw out all those apps that are on my MacBook pro taking up hard drive space if I am now using iCloud and getting all my updates over the air to each of my IOS devices?
Is there any reason to keep them on the Mac?

Only thing i can think of is the local backup function, besides that it's just a total waste unless apple has plans to make them play on the mac... Imagine that, the so many thousands of apps available for the mac like that. What a keynote that would be "and today we are announcing hundreds and thousands of apps for the mac, instantly"

Do we need to keep IOS apps in iTunes if we now sync to the cloud

If all of our apps are now stored in iCloud is it still necessary to maintain them in our iTunes account on our macs, I have an air with limited HD space and with over 250 apps it takes up quite a chunk of space. If we can get updates to our apps in the mobile app and all our purchases are stored in iTunes storewhere they can be downloaded, it should be safe to delete the apps but I dread having to redownload if Im wrong. Further more will turning off the sync feature in itunes app section cause the apps on my phone to be erased? Am I missing something?
thx
tony

First, it's always been okay to delete apps from your phone because you can download then again at no additional cost, assuming they are still in the store. You can re-download to your phone, or to iTunes and sync them with your device.
With iOS 5 and iCloud, you don’t have to sync your device with iTunes at all. Interestingly, you can still use the device while syncing is occurring, whereas before it would interrupt syncing.
Both iTunes on the computer and the Store settings on the devices (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch) have a setting for “Automatic Downloads”. With that on, your devices will automatically download anything purchased in iTunes on your computer, and iTunes on your computer will automatically download anything purchased on your devices. You can turn it off in iTunes on your computer if you don’t want to download new purchases to your computer with very little hard drive space. If you have only one device, and won’t be using iTunes on your computer to make purchases, then there’s really no point in turning on “Automatic Downloads” on your solitary device. The “Automatic Downloads” setting only affects the device where it is activated, so setting it on your iPhone won’t affect your computer, and setting if for your computer won’t affect your iPad, and so forth.
Keep in mind that not everything that is in the iTunes Store will stay there forever. Some items do get removed from the store for various reasons, such as an artist, developer, or studio changing their mind about selling it there, and so you won’t be able to download them again if that happens. If you don’t want them on your computer, ideally you would save copies to an external hard drive, at the very least.
That’s the obligatory warning about backing up, which iTunes always warns you in the EULA and elsewhere.
If you delete anything out of your iTunes library, but still want it on your devices, then you will pretty much have to not sync with iTunes ever again. Otherwise, iTunes will try to match everything on your computer (or whatever is selected for that device) with what’s on the device, and vice versa.
With iOS 5 and iCloud, not syncing with iTunes becomes a much more sane option than it was before. This does not remove your responsibility for backing up what you have purchased. If you don’t want it on your computer, you should figure out where else to keep your own personal backup. Again, an artist, or developer, or studio, or whoever created whatever you purchased may change their mind and decide to have the item removed from the store. If that happens, you won’t be able to download it again. This has happened many times already; it’s not often, but it does happen.
If you sync your device with iTunes, you’ll get a dialog asking whether you’d like to transfer the purchased items found on your device to iTunes. If you decline to transfer them to iTunes, then the purchased items on your device will be deleted. If you do that, then you’d have to re-download them again, which you’d likely do directly from your device and that would likely take forever if you did every single time.
In short:
Yes, you can delete the apps and any other purchases from iTunes.
Be sure to use iCloud on your devices, and turn on iCloud's backup option so it'll save your apps data.
Then, do not sync your devices with iTunes ever again.
Also, do not depend on your purchases remaining in the iTunes Store forever.
Keep your own personal backup of all your purchases, just in case they are removed from the store (by the content creator’s request, Apple’s reasons, earthquake, apocalypse, etc.) This will require:
downloading new purchases to iTunes;
choose File > Show in Finder;
copy it to an external hard drive;
then you go back to iTunes and delete it in iTunes (not the Finder) so iTunes will know and keep your library clean.
Hmm, so much for "short".
