HI THERE I HAVE TO I PODS WITCH WERE GIVE TO ME FROM A FAMILY MEMBER CAN I SET THEM UP FOR AN ACCOUNT FOR ME BUT I DONT HAVE THE OLD ACCOUNT DETAILS
hello there i have been givin a i pod classic from my brother and want to know can i set up a apple acount even if i dont have his account details
The procedure is Settings>Messages>Send & Receive at>You can be reached by iMessages at>Add another email address. The email address has to be a valid working email address, obviously. Apple should verify the email address and you have to go to the inbox of that email account, read the verification email from Apple and follow the inductions in the email in order to complete the verification. Then you go back to the settings, uncheck your email address and check the new email address to be used as the contact email address.

How do i delete an icloud account to set up a new icloud account if you dont know the old accounts password
Welcome to the Apple community Amber
If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

My mac seems to have a virus thats connected with a few apps i use and i can't use them without my computer glitching out even though i've reinstalled the apps a few times. It's very frusterating especially when i'm doing someting when my computer randomly freezes or justs logs out for no reason when i'm using the apps.
Matthew,
if you boot your MacBook Pro in Safe mode, do those apps still behave in the same way? -
Hi, I have found my older ipod guessing 2nd in line from first generation. Music was Downloaded from BearShare onto a PC, this tower is long gone but i still have my music on this older device. It opens in itunes on my mac laptop but I cannot transfer/send toor of drag into my itunes library. I can only listen to the music from the laptop. If I try to transfer songs to a laptop folder it copies in text. Any suggestions?
The following user tip is worth checking through:

When I set up the icloud I was using my then email address. My email address has now changed.
I tried to access under the old email address to change it to a new email address but I couldn't remember the security questions and as I can't access the old email address, I can't change it. So to solve the problem I set up a new account under the new email address. The only problem is my iphone is still asking for the old email address password which doesn't work.
How do I connect my iphone to the new account as it wont let me delete the old account on the iphone without the password (which as mentioned above doesn't work)?Content and Apple IDs -
Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with one Apple ID with a new Apple ID. -
I have had to open a new account, however, there were App updates that did not get installed before I opened the new account. Therefore, when I try to do the updates, it's is asking for the sign-in and password for the old account, which I do not have this information.
All apps are tied to the Apple ID they are purchased with and is not transferable.
Delete these apps and download them with the new Apple ID. -

I have recently purchased a new iPhone, but my husband has the iTunes account on his email. We want to set up separate accounts however we want to share all of our music from iTunes. Is there a way to only share music only (not contacts, apps, etc)?

Just to clarify: I purchased some of my older music in iTunes with an account that got deleted. I cannot recover or use this old account. I transferred music from my old iTunes to a new computer and that new iTunes on the new computer is asking me to sign into the old account to authorize the music. So, is there another way to transfer this music to my new iTunes? I'm using a USB thumb drive to transfer the music. Also, music that was purchased with my current account tranfers just fine.

I have an iPhone 5s running iOS8 and an iPad, up to date. I have recently changed my mail server but not my email address. My "old" mail account is an Exchange account and I have also set up a "new" Exchange account with the same address but with the new mail server details. When I receive outside, third party emails they are routed correctly to the "new" Exchange account but when I bcc myself or receive other emails from any account with my domain name the emails are routed to my "old" Exchange account. I have changed the default account settings to the "new" Exchange account. Also, if I send myself an email from my laptop, through the new mail service provider, it is routed correctly on my laptop but incorrectly on my iPhone and iPad. It appears as though the Apple products have cached my email address and routing and won't look to pick up the new mail server details. I don't see anything in the mail account settings or contacts that allows me to refresh or clear the cache. The result is I now have mail in 2 accounts. If I can get the misdirected mail from the odl account to the new one I will then make the old account inactive. Anyone have any ideas on this one?
Thanks in advance for your time and ideas,
DAACan you set up a rule in your old account to forward mail to your new account and then delete it from the old account?

If i know email ( but i dont have acces to it ) and i dont have secret questions how can i recover my icloud account ?
I'n my company ( pawn shop ) i hope i transleted fine , i bought an iphone wich it seems to be ok at the first time.
That was on 26.11.2013 ( as can be seen in my pawn contract and billing ) . after 2 weeks i found a client to buy my second hand iphone and the i saw my mistake it is icloud blocked i need that password so i can reset the iphone to sell it. how can i manage this problem ? i can provide all my billings, contracts, society data everything.If you know the primary email linked to the account but do not have access to it or the answers to the security questions, then the next best thing to do is call Apple at 800-275-2273 and ask for Account Security. They will ask you for two pieces of information from the account in order to unlock it. The options are usually the security questions (each question counts as one piece), the credit card linked to the account, and either a device serial number or device verification code that they will send you.
After this verification is complete they can send the reset link for your password to any email you choose. Please be aware that if they verify you with something other than two security questions, there is a 24 hour wait before the email arrives.
Good luck! -
I had an unauthorized purchase on my old apple ID so I created a new one since the old one had been deactivated and now I cannot update any of my apps, I have read that the apps will be tied to the old account but since the old one was deactivated I cant update them and I do not want to delete/lose their data, re download, and start all over again. Is there anyway to go around this issue?
thanksAsk Apple to re-enable it. I had an unauthorized purchase last October. They disabled my account until the problem was solved. However, I asked them to reopen it, and they just asked me to provide some security information (billing address, a recent purchase you made, etc.), and then they re-enabled it.
