I have some money left from a gift card on an itunes account, but can't log in. I've tried to reset the password but I didn't receive the email. Also I can't remember the security question. What can I try next?

I have iPhone 4s, after i updated my software to 7.0.4 my wifi stopped working. The wifi icon at the top is gone. Its annoying that i have to us my data all the time. I've tried the network reset, it didn't work. My phone works fine, just a lilttle bit slow before i upadated to 7.0.4. And now not only the wifi, the phone itself is slower than ever. I wish i didn't udgrade to iOs 7. There's too much problems. There's this one time that I can't send iMessage at all.

Hi s.kouris,
I'm afraid that unless you are able to contact the previous owner and have him wipe the device, or provide you with his Apple ID password so you can delete the iCloud account, you are out of luck.
With iOS 7, an Activiation Lock was added to deter thieves. This lock prevents anyone but the owner of the device from deleting the iCloud account and restoring the device:

Unless you are able to reach the original owner and get the device wiped or the iCloud account deleted, you are stuck with a brick.
Sorry,

You will need to restore the software via the following procedure:
Turn your device off and connect your cable to the computer, but not the device just yet. Start up iTunes. Now, hold down the home button on your device and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a device in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.

What happens when you try to confirm your details, if you are getting an error message then what does it say ? For a card to be accepted (debit cards are no longer accepted in all countries) it needs to be registered to exactly the same name and address as on your account, and have been issued by a bank in your country. If it's not being accepted then do you get the 'none' option on your account ?

TS3274 I have an iPad 1 and cannot get the Apps to complete the updates. I have deleted my account, reset the iPad, signed back into my account, synced with my Airbook and they still won't update. what can I try next? Thank you

I have an iPad 1 and cannot get the Apps to complete their updates. I have deleted my account, reset the iPad, signed back into my account, synced with my Airbook and they still won't update. what can I try next? Thank you

Look and see if you have a stalled download in iTunes - it could be a song or a podcast - if there is something that has not completed in there, your app updates will not download. Finish those downloads first, if you have any.
Check to make sure.

I have changed my icloud account but now can't log out of the old account on my ipad. What can I do next?

I am having problems with logging out of the icloud on my ipad so that I can log in with my new icloud account. How can I change this so that all of my logins will work?

Have you got 'Find My iPad' enabled? This has to be turned off using the original ID address.
Try going back to http://appleid.apple.com and changing the ID back to the original address. If you can get this accepted, then go to the iCloud preferences/settings pane, stop 'Find My ....', and then sign out. Do the same on any other devices or computers.
Then go back to http://appleid.apple.com and change the ID to the new one. Sign in with that on all your devices.
However if the address which forms the original ID is now not working it can't be validated and it's possible that you won't be able to revert to it. In this situation only Support can help you.
To contact iCloud Support: if you currently happen to have AppleCare, either because you recently bought Apple hardware or have paid to extend the initial period, you can contact them here:
http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/
You will need the serial number of the covered hardware.
