Entered email in wrong when I was signing up for an apple account.

Now it says my card information is already associated with that account. How do I fix this without having to deactivate my card?
Some additional information,
I'm not sure how I typoed my email at that time because I just thought starting a whole new application would fix it.

Hi Kilagannon,
If you are having problems with the paying methods section of the iTunes account, you could try buying iTunes cards. By doing so, you will be able to make an account without having any credit card/PayPal paying methods.
1. Buy an iTunes card.
2. Go to iTunes main page and on the right of the page you will see under Quick Links an option called Redeem.
3. Type in the code on the card and hit Redeem.
4. iTunes will tell you to make an account, you will have to fill in your name, e-mail address/password, secret question, address... When you get to the Paying Method section, iTunes will have automatically added a new method, in the Credit Card box, which is "None".
You won't have to worry about credit card issues and taxes or anything.
This is not really an answer to your question, but a suggestion to your problem.

Problems signing up for an Apple account to use iTunes.

I tried to sign up for an apple account to use iTunes, and I filled out all the information until I got to the part where you have to have a credit card of paypal account.
The debit card I used works as a credit card as well (Mastercard). I entered the numbers in, and continued, it asked me what county I lived in, for tax purposes, and then brought me back to the numbers, saying my security code was not valid.
I didn't get the code wrong, I know that. But I was worried that the problem might be that the account in question was overdrawn at the time.
Could that be the problem, and why the security code was 'not valid'?
Thanks.

I signed up for my apple account while living in Canada, and now I lives in the US. I am looking for a specific app that apparently is only available through the US app store. How can I change my account to the US Apple Store?

As long as you have a form of payment (credit or debit card) with a USA source, and with a billing address in the USA, then you just need to change your payment information on your account to that, change your country in the store settings, and you will then be able to shop in the USA store.
Your AppleID will work in any country's store, as long as your payment source and billing addres are also specific to that country (and you are in that country as well, as there may be IP filters in place to stop use outside of the country).

Will I get in trouble if I sign up for a developer account at 16?

Hello,
I downloaded the xCode application a few weeks ago and have developed an app that I would like to submit to the app store. However, when attempting to sign up for the developer account I saw that there is an age requirement because I would be entering an agreement. Paying the fee is no problem for me seeing as I have a debit card, so I'm wondering if I used that card to get the account and my app became succesful, could I get in trouble for not being 18? Or is the chance of that happening very very unlikely?
Thank you,
StrongJoshua

You cannot enter into a legally binding agreement (developer or otherwise) unless you are at least the age of majority, which is 18 in most countries. However, a parent or guardian (who will be the responsible party) can sign up for a developer account and share it with you.

I had an Apple account on my old Lap Top to which my iPad and iPhone were syncd. I now have a new Lap Top and when I tried to access my apple ID on it I was asked to sign up for a new account. I can't use any of them.

I need help. I had an apple account on my old Lap Top to which my iPad and iPhone were synced ? I recently changed my lap top. My problem is the new lap top won't accept my apple I D it asked me to sing up for a new one which I did. After doing this I tried to sync my iPad and phone to the new lap top which I was unable to do as they didn't recognise my new ID. HELP!!!!!! 

I am puzzled by this. The laptop doesn't need the Apple ID - but iTunes does. I could be missing something but ....
Why would you not be able to use your existing Apple ID and iTunes account on a new laptop? If you authorized the computer - you should be able to use your existing account - unless you already had 5 computers authorized with the existing ID - and that was why iTunes would not accept the ID. However, I'm sure that you would have received a popup message from iTunes telling you that you had reached the limit.
I just received a new MBP and my daughter did as well. My entire family shares an Apple ID and we had no issues at all with my Apple ID and iTunes on our new computers and I did not have to sign up for a new account. Did you even try the old ID?

Frequently I will be asked to sign in to my Apple account, but it is using an email I don't use with Apple. How can I get this to stop?

I use an iPod4 Touch and am using IOS 6.1.6. Frequently I will be asked to sign in to my Apple account, but it is using an email I don't use with Apple. How can I get this to stop? This is happening repeatedly throughout the day. I don't have an Apple password for this email address, nor do I want one!

Maybe an App that needs updating was purchased by that account?
Could someone have installed an app not purchased with your account?
Can you post a screen shot of the message?

I am trying to read my iMessages from my iPhone 4S on my iPad 2, but the messages do not show up on my iPad 2. I made sure that the receiving email address is the same on both devices and both are signed into my single Apple account.

Is it possible that the person who sent the message to your phone sent it to your phone # instead? Try sending a message to your phone via the email address and see if it shows up on the iPad.

Okay so when I try to download apps on my phone a totally different Apple ID that I've never used before popped up. I've already tried settings under apps/iTunes and signed into my own apple account. But even doing so my apple Id won't show up

Try this:
Open the iTunes app, select the Music tab, then scroll all the way down to the bottom. Here you can sign out of any current Apple ID and sign into a new one. Good luck!
And just in case there is another Apple ID linked to your account you can check at http://appleid.apple.com.

I have downloaded several books into ibooks. Started reading one and closed it when I was done reading for the day. Now I want to access other books and when I open ibooks it goes directly to that first book. It does not give me the shelf to choose what book I want to read - goes directly to the first book. What can I do? Help please.

There should be a Library button on the top left. If not ap the middle of the screen to get it to appear.

Someone else set up my apps on my iPad. Now when I load find friends it shows him instead of me. I rebooted and re installed the app. How can I remove him even though I'm signed in under my apple account

I signed on to iCloud, but it only shows the icons for Mail, Contacts, Calendar, Notes, Reminders, Find Phone, Numbers, Pages and Keynotes. Where's everything else ?
What you've outlined in this part of the post is all that icloud stores for you outside of the backup. If you want to restore from the icloud backup you will then have for all practical purposes a carbon restoration back to your device if you restore from the icloud backup.

Syncing your device with itunes will then enable you to remove whatever photos you wish to remove from your device deleting them with the computer and not the iphone.

Hi, when I was in US I opened my account and now that I am living in other country I hadn't change the billing address ofmy credit card or mi country in my account and etc- I can't do anything because I can't change country. somebody can help me?

Hi, when I was in US I opened mi account in ITunes and now that I am living in other country I hadn’t change the billing address of my credit card or mi country in my account and etc… I can’t do anything because I can change mi country somebody can help me? (I don’t have US credit card and I only have a credit card of other country).

What country are you in now ? You can only use the store in the country where you currently are, so if you are no longer in the US then you can't use the US store.
If you are now in the country where your credit card is registered are you not able to change the address on your iTunes account to that address e.g. via the Store > View My Apple ID menu option on your computer's iTunes, or by tapping your id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores on your iPhone 5 ?

Why did I receive a Viber access code when I never signed up for Viber?

why did I receive a Viber access code on my brand new iPhone 4S when I never signed up for Viber? In fact, when I received the sms, I used the search function on my iPhone to see where it could be hidden, and the only results where the two consecutive texts I received giving me identical access codes.

Oops, I just went into the message and there is no "i" where to block the number that sent me the access code. What do I do now? (sorry, but I am a true techno-idiot). Never mind, just found it and blocked it. Thanks for all your help, Belly114. Have a great long weekend, wherever you are.
