You need to reset it to factory settings : Settings > General > Reset > Erase all Content And Settings. Content is not transferable between users, you have to buy/download your content for it.

    You're right - that link goes to a dead-end (sorry OP ).
    Looks like it's all down to the paid for one now, although you can use it in demo mode for 14 days:

  • I just bought a new Nano.  How do I transfer the songs from my Shuffle to the Nano and then give the Shuffle to my husband so he can open an itunes account of his own?

    I just bought a new Nano.  How do I tranfer the songs from my Shuffle to my husband so he can open an itunes account of his own?

    DaisyDoodle,
    The songs on your Shuffle should still be in your iTunes library.  That means you should just be able to connect your Nano to the same iTunes library and sync it just as you would with your Shuffle. There is no limit to the number of iPods, iPads, or iPhones you can sync to one computer, iTunes library, or account.
    As for preparing the Shuffle for your husband, just restore it via iTunes and then let him sync it to his own iTunes library or if its the same iTunes library, let him configure it to sync only his content.
    Here are instructions on how to restore the Shuffle if need be.

  • I just bought an ipad,not even 30 days ago, now the new one is coming out next week. can I exchange?

    Has anyone heard if verizon will be offering an exchange policy like they did for the iphone? I haven't even had my ipad 30 days and now the new one is coming out next week. Is verizon going to screw it's customers or allow you to exchange for the new one?

    Verizon is not even giving the $100 credit that Apple is giving if you bought within 14 days.  I called and was told I had to pay a restocking fee of $70 plus a reactivation fee of $35 so I could exchange and get an Ipad 2 and pay $105 as basically a penalty instead fo getting a $100 credit.
    So don't tell me Verizon is not screwing their Ipad customers who just bought an Ipad.

  • How do I change the main iCloud account on my iPad?

    I need to change the main iCloud account on my iPad. I'm merging family MobileMe accounts' contacts, and need to set up multiple devices with the main iCloud family account so we will all share photos, contacts, calendars, etc, but have separate email via personal subaccounts. Trouble is I entered a sub account as the main account on one of the iPads and I can't find a way to change it.

    I have the same question for a slightly different reason.
    I just got an iPhone6 and set it up from an iPhone4 backup. I never really used that phone for iCloud, When iCloud first launched, I used an old earthlink email but I've since updated to a gmail address on my account.and use iCloud a lot on my iPad and laptop. But the new phone wants me to log in under the old earthlink account. I don't have that password and attempts to reset it have not worked. How can I switch the log in address so I can use the correct working address?

  • I have bought an iPad second hand, however the data on it is still there from the previous owner and requires a password to be reset but, because it is second hand, I do not know it, is there any way around this so I can reset it?

    Ipad needs resetting but because it's second hand the password from the previous owner is still on it and I do not know it, is there anyway around this so I can take all the data off? It's urgent because it is being used as a gift next week!

    The previous owner should have reset it back to factory defaults before selling it. What iOS version is the iPad on (Settings > General > About > Version), and has the previous owner left him/herself logged in in Settings > iCloud with Find My iPad enabled on that screen ? If it's on iOS 7 and Find My iPad is enabled then you should contact the previous owner and ask them to remove the iPad from their account, otherwise you or the recipient of the gift will have problems with activation lock : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515
    To reset the iPad back to factory defaults (if it's not linked to Find My iPad) you can use recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808

  • I have a subscription to Adobe Pro.  I just bought a new computer.  How do I transfer the software?

    I have a paid subscription to Adobe Pro.  I just bought a new computer and need to know how to transfer the software from my old computer to my new one.

    Thank you - I was able to sign in under my husband's email address.  I still cannot seem to figure out how to download the Adobe Pro software to my computer as I had done for my original computer.  I do have a version of Adobe on my new computer, just not the Pro version that is on my old computer.  I am occasionally not able to access the internet during travel, but need to have the appropriate software on my laptop so as to be able to work on documents while not connected to the internet.
    Thank you so much for your help.

  • I just bought an ipod classic and synched with itunes.  The main part showed up on ipod but not the playlists.  How can I get playlist to appear on ipod.  Thanks!

    I bought a new ipod classic.  When attempting to synch it made me update itunes to the latest version (there may be a more current one now.)  I did this and when I synched to ipod everything showed up except the playlists.  How do I get the playlist to synch to ipod as well?  Thanks!

    Connect it to your computer and restore it as a new device. Then chose what music you want to sync with it and do so just like your Touch does.

  • I just bought a new iMAC. I want to change the password, but the system is not accepting any old passwords.  How do I reset this, so that I can set a password?

    I just bought a new iMAC.  I want to set a password.  But, the system seems to think I already have one set, and I don't know what it is.  How do I reset this feature, so that I can set a password, without knowing the current password?

    Have you yet, during setting up the new iMac, transferred old data and settings from an external hard drive or another computer?  If so, then your computer obtained its current set Password from that tranfer, so you would have to determine what that Password was in the old system.  If you have Not transferred any information that way, then the installation and/or setup seem to have corrupted somehow since it hasn't yet received a new system Password selection from you. 
    At this point, if you can, you can reboot while holding down the Command - R keys to boot into the Mountain Lion Recovery Partition.  There you can select to "Reinstall Mountain Lion from the Internet".  This will overwrite your current installation and any problems that have occured and give you a fresh install that hopefullywill allow you to set up without problems.

  • Just bought a Mac in Aug09 - how do I get the upgrade discount?

    I just bought a Mac mini in August. I bought it through the Apple online store in Singapore. I think I'm entiled to buy the Snow Leopard upgrade for US$9.99 but I don't see where I can do this. I have seen a web page for US residents, but not for overseas residents. does the discount only apply to US buyers?

    As far as i know it is just US and Canada. However i know if you are serving in the military overseas Apple has some sort of solution.

  • I brought a new ipad (3rd generation), the problem i am having is with itunes. i downloaded a television series onto my ipad, i did not know that it would try to download it all at one time. my question is how do i change the way my ipad loads.

    As I stated in the title, I purchased an ipad (3rd generation), and I am having trouble with itunes downloads. Mistakenly when I purchased a television series I selected download the entire series to my ipad. Is there a way to stop this download and change the download location to either my laptop or into the cloud?

    Did you try tapping on the download to bring up a pause status? You can finish the download on the computer in iTunes. You may be able to delete the download by swiping across the progress bar of the download after you finish the download on the computer.
    Launch iTunes on your computer and go to Store>Check for available downloads. Finish the download in iTunes and then try to delete the download from the iPad.
