Each time my iPad updates it looses all applications that I have downloaded
Each time, Apple sends message to download new updates, I comply. Each time, it confirms that it is backing up my current iPad. Each time it dumps my music, and every app I have purchased and each time I have to reload everything manually. Is this system of downloads that bad or am I to ingnore all future updates? Please advise, a very unhappy 3 apple device owner.
I agree with Rudegar.
Check the Apple ID used by iTunes on your computer to make sure if it is the same Apple ID beings used by your iPad.

how come there is another apple id appears when im about to update the applications that i have downloaded?
When a stranger's Apple ID appears on your Mac in conjunction with an update for an app that you have never installed, you have a pirated app on your Mac. The pirated app is not the app calling for the update. This pirated app has been cracked with the MAS receipt from usually a free app, often Angry Birds or Twitter, acquired by the person whose Apple ID you see.
You may not have realized that it was a pirated app when you installed it. You may have believed that it was a trail version or a "free" version.
All MAS apps have a MAS receipt in their app bundle. Check any app acquired from the MAS. Right click on the app's icon in your Apps folder and choose Show package contents. In the Contents folder is a _MASReceipt folder and in that folder is the coded MAS receipt. It has the Apple ID of the MAS account that bought/acquired the app from the MAS. It is that receipt that the MAS uses to alert you that an app has an update. There would not be a notice of an update with someone else's Apple ID showing in the MAS on your Mac, if there was not an app with a receipt from this person's account somewhere on your Mac.
Download the free app FindAnyFile (FAF);
http://apps.tempel.org/FindAnyFile/
This app is easier to use and seems to be more powerful than Spotlight. Open FAF and in the box type _MASReceipt and press Find. It should come up with a list of every app on the Mac with a MAS receipt. Compare the apps with receipts in FAF's list with your purchased apps list in the Mac App Store. The odd app out should be the pirated app. -
My IPAD 2 will some times not open apps that I have down load from the app store. But will open all of the preinstalled apps.I must go to the app store and install something and then all the apps will open. I should not have to install unwanted apps to keep my IPad working.I have reset and total reset nothing sames to work.
Sounds to me like you may have an issue with the firmware, i.e. the iOS version that you are runing. I also have an iPad 2 and sometimes have to restart it to get it to recognize and run a newly downloaded app. And only once or twice have I had to uninstall and redownload an app that this didn't fix. I think this has more to do with the way an app has been coded more than anything else.
You might try doing a "Reset All Settings" reset and set it up as a new iPad. You should not lose any data, apps, music, videos, etc. that you have stored on your device. I have done this a few times when tweaking the iOS 5.0.1 firmware and never lost anything. You do have to re-enter your ID's and Passwords for wifi. And of course you will need to go back into settings and reset any changes you may have made to things like location and notifications.
I don't know if this will work, but if I was in your place this is the next step that I would take. -
Tried to load iDVD from my MacBook onto my new iMac but keep getting a message that it can find any themes. iDVD runs just fine in the MacBook but for some reason when I copied it from the MacBook using a flash drive and download it on the iMac the themes went away. Suggestions?
The themes, when installed, will be in a Themes folder inside the HD/Library/Application Support/iDVD folder. Check there and when you find it copy it to the same folder on your new Mac.
Then go to iDVD's advanced preference pane and point iDVD to the location of the Themes folder:
If you can't find the Themes folder on your old Mac you can do a custom install of iDVD and its resources from the disk that came with the old Mac. It will look similar to one of these:

Hi - I need to download an iPad update and when I do the file successfully downloads and then proceeds to "progressing" then times out - I think it is my firewall but I have turned off all firewalls
If it scare y ou then take the machien back and ask the Apple Store to do this for you. What has probably filled your computer is large libraries such as music, photos and movies. Apple explains how to move those libraries to an external HD. Please read:

Each time I attempt update to iOS 6.1.1, I get a failure message saying I am no longer connected to the Internet. Which is not true. How should I proceed?
Daria-H, I get the same error. Trying on an iPad Mini.
Neto, I guess we could try plugging it to a computer. However, I am surprised I have to do that. It should work over the air, shouldn't it? -
If I reset my iPad will I loose all my apps too?
If I reset my iPad will I loose all the apps too?
Yes that's fine.
Every time you purchase something on iTunes, they link the purchases to your apple ID.
You'll notice the apps you've purchased before will either have 'installed' next to them in the App Store, or 'install'.
If it has a price next to it, you'll be charged, so be careful downloading ones you think you've already purchased. -

Transferring your prepaid cellular data account depends on your carrier. AT&T lets you move it yourself when you go to Cellular Data in Settings and log into your account with your previous AT&T user name and password. For iPads with Sprint service, you can set up an account on the new iPad and contact Sprint Customer Care (888-211-4727 and go through the menus) to deactivate the old plan and get credit for unused service. For Verizon, call the company’s customer service number for mobile broadband support (800-786-8419) and ask to have your account transferred.

I have an Acrobat 8 which is all I need. Installed on my new computer which is using Windows 8. Each time I open Acrobat I get a window that say unable to registrator. It gives me three options try again, redo, never register. No matter which option I choose I cannot stop the window from opening each time I open the computer.
Any suggestions?Probably far too old to register. Sounds like a bug, stopping the "never" selection from working. You may be stuck with it.

If I restore my Ipad , will I loose all my info?
if I restore my Ipad , will I loose all my info?
No, you will not. First what you do is back up the iPad before you sync (right click on iPad and then click back up). Then restore the iPad you will be given the option to reload from the last back up.
Hope that helps! -
My Ipod touch plays music but every time I open an app that I have downloaded it closes immediately. This started happening after updating to the latest version of Ipod software.
Here's a couple things to try:
1. Reset the iPod by holding the sleep/wake button and home button at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen.
2. Uninstall and reinstall one of your purchased apps. Sometimes this can rectify the issue.
3. Connect the iPod to iTunes and restore it. New system software usually resolves the issue. Make sure you sync before restoring because a restore removes the data from your iPod.
Hope one of these works for you!
