For some reason the Apple ID window in iTunes and App Store now seems to suddenly have a character number constraint which prevents me using my 29 character Apple ID. As a result I am unable to enter the final few characters of my Apple ID which I have had for many years. Does anyone know what has caused this?

You need to ask Apple for assistance with getting back into your old ID. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to resolve this issue through the Account Security team, fill out and submit this form.

    1. Windows 8.1 Enterprise w Update is the best. It allows you for sideloading in corporate environment without additional tools and licenses.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/jj874388.aspx
    2. N series is for EU (without IE).
    3. Profesional is fine, but you will need some tools to achieve the same functionality that you have in "pack" Enterprise.
    4. VL is volume license, a type of license for multiple computers (to say it simply)
    5. MSDN forum is better alternative for problems like this.
    6. Attached to MSDN are licenses or at least references to web resources. Read license agreements carefully and let your installation and use follow the license.

  • When loading certain websites the text appears funny and I get these strange large black page breaks. Does anyone know what might cause this?

    Here's a screen cap of what I normally see: http://i41.tinypic.com/4tq52a.jpg
    I can see websites that appear like that on Chrome as they should appear, but for some reason Firefox gives me all of that mess. It happens a lot on blogs, if that makes a difference. Also, I tried disabling my add-ons, but to no avail. Anyone got any ideas?

    That is a font problem. Firefox can't find the font and shows little boxes with the hex code instead.
    Try to set the pref <b>gfx.font_rendering.directwrite.use_gdi_table_loading</b> to false on the <b>about:config</b> page.
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />
    *Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
    *Preferences that have been modified show as bold (user set).
    *Preferences can be reset to the default via the right-click context menu if they are user set
    *Preferences can be changed via the right-click context menu: Modify (String or Integer) or Toggle (Boolean)

  • When my desktop (Mac Power 5) starts a folder comes up with 2 heads which changes to a question mark. Does anyone know how to fix this.?

    My Husband turned his desktop off without shutting down now When my desktop (Mac Power G5) starts up  a folder comes up with 2 heads which changes to a question mark. Does anyone know how to fix this.?

    Step 1- Try booting to Startup Manager by holding Option/Alt key.
    Select the boot source and click the right arrow.
    Once booted, open System Preferences and select the desired boot volume.
    Replacing the PRAM battery is likely wise if the machine keeps forgetting it's boot source.
    If that doesn't work,
    Step 2-  Boot holding a mouse click, insert the OS X install disc and hold C to boot to the install disc.
    Once booted, open Disk Utility and "Repair Disk" on the boot drive.
    Once done, reboot normally.

  • Does anyone know what has happened to Softmatic Barcode Maker on the App store?

    I bought this App a few months ago, and it worked fine. Then updated it a few weeks ago and worked even better. However I tried to load it today and it just crashes on startup. Have tried restating my MBP and it still doesn't work. I can't re-install because it is nolonger available on the App store, and furthermore, the publisher seems to have dissappeared completely! The web address softmatic.com doesn't go anywhere, and googling doesn't turn up any useful info.
    Does anyone have any ideas of what I can do to fix the software?
    Or what has happened to Softmatic?
    Or if I will have any kind of comebak with the App Store regarding this App?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated – I'm stumped!
    Thanks
    Andy

    I've rather wondered myself. I hadn't used the bar code software, but did download and try the free Gradient Pro. It worked very nicely. I had a question and one problem, support was iin contact within an hour with both the answer and a fix for the problem. The next day they posted an updated version with the fix as part of the update. I was very impressed. The next day, they were *poof*.
    I still use the app, have the manual page downloaded from before, but they have vanished online. Too bad. They had some great plans in store for new features.

  • HT1386 I am having problems syncing my iphone to my itunes account.  I am getting a message stating" Apple mobile device service not started"......does anyone know what has happened???

    Hey Patsy,
    This is a pretty simple issue to fix.
    For Windows 7 or Vista: Start> Search for 'Services'> Select the Services that shows as a Program> Click on Apple Mobile Device> And then press Start.

  • My Centro's touchscreen powers on by it'self at random draining the battery. Anyone know what can cause this. Verizon replaced my first Centro and the replacement does it also.

    null
    Post relates to: Centro (Verizon)

    I just found a solution and I've been working on this problem off and on for a long time. I never use my centro for email or Internet, yet it would spontaneously power down and restart, it might hang up, and it always drained power within a few hours.
    On another site, someone asked the question -- was this my first Palm or did I have one previously? Once that question was asked, I was reminded that I'd had previous Palm units, each containing different applications. So, I went to apps (home button then select applications from top left screen then select Delete). From there I was able to scroll down and verify what applications I'd had on my two prior Zires. I deleted functions that didn't come with the Palm Centro (a couple of third-party apps I no longer used, Expense DB, File Info and others). I also followed the solutions posted by others to turn select IR to Cradle, unchecked automatically select SMS messages (phone button - Options - Preferences - Connection - Edit - then select Cradle/Cable). My Centro had Network locked, so I couldn't do anything about that. I also went to VoiceDial from Main Menu - Settings - Choice Lists and unchecked each and every category). Then I performed a soft reset, re-synced and my battery (after 22 hours shows power at 96%. I'm thrilled. I just hope the good news continues. Good luck with your unit. 

  • My appstore app shows an update available for CodeBox, which I did not buy, does anyone know what the problem could be? I don't think I have been hacked (no money subtracted, etc.)

    Hi all,
    For some time now, my appstore app shows an update available for CodeBox, which I did not buy. When I try to update it it asks for my ID and password (all normal), but then it gives an Unknown Error.
    I am 100% sure I didn't buy the app, I do not see any transaction on my card or in the appstore apart of this one, so does not seem to be a hack.
    Does anyone know what is happening, this is a tricky thing which is making me lose trust in the payment/account system that Apple is using.
    Thanks!

  • I can't sign into iCloud because my Apple ID doesn't work there.  For some reason it gave me a .mac email and I don't remember the password.  When it gives me the option to reset my password, it's my Apple ID password which I don't want to do.

  • I have a 13" macbook from 2009 and for some reason can no longer change my desktop image by just clicking on an image in system prererences I-Photo. Does anyone know what the problem could be?

    Your Desktop Picture settings and Dock items are stored in the files
    /Users/your short user name/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist and
    /Users/your short user name/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.plist
    in the "Preferences" folder in your user library. This looks like the system has trouble to write to these files. Check the permissions on your user library and remove the above files from your user library, then log off and on again.
    Your user library is hidden in Lion and Mt. Lion. To reveal it, use the Finder's "Go" menu. Select "Go" in the Finder's main menu bar and hold down the alt/option key, until you see the "Library"  in the drop-down menu. Double click it to open a Finder window, so you can browse the files inside.

    Ok thanks - that explains it:
    From the Apple article: "
    Note: Touch ID cannot be used for purchases if Require Password in Settings > General > Restrictions is set to Immediately."
    Not sure why - but clearly intentional.
