How can I get past the activate page on ipod touch?

I am trying to fix a ipod touch for an lady I know. she purchased this ipod for her 9 year old daughter and she set it up with her dad apparently using his email account. The daughter forgot her passcode so she wanted me to restore it which I did. Now I'm stuck at the activation page. After trying everything online I could find I called apple spport and spent 2 hours on the phone with them. After all this I was able to finally get logged into the dads apple id account which shows the daighters name and his email account that was used. Problem is that the 9 year old apparently set up the find my iphone setting and/or changed the apple id at some point to her [email protected] so when I get to the activation page it wants the apple id that the 9 year old used and she has forgotten it. If I try her dads email and id it says it cant be used to activate the ipod. I try to reset her password but the birthdate isn't going through and I've tried her real bday, her bday that she used on her facebook account, and her parents bday as well as several years up and down from it but can't get through. Any ideas on what can be done?

How can I get past the iTunes page that offers a free download of iTunes 10+ ?

My iMac G5 doesn't have the Intel Processors and it operates on OS X 10.4. Both conditions make it impossible for me to upgrade to iTunes 10. Every time I attempt to log into the iTunes Store, I am given a page that offers me the opportunity to upgrade to iTunes 10+ and I'm not able to get beyond the page and in to the Store. My account is current and I'm not happy with this strategy to make my perfectly good iMac obsolete and force me to buy a new one in order to access the iTunes Store. I need a way to get beyond the page that offers the iTunes 10+ free download, so I can purchase the music I want. Please help me get around this Apple ploy.

Many of us don't like it but innovative Apple staying ahead of the curve means those of us on the other side quickly get ignored. After all, who is it who is spending money on all that hardware and software; the people staying with the newest all the time, or those of us who haven't bought a computer or operating system in 5 years? It's a for-profit company so you can hardly blame them, though it doesn't endear me to the policy of not supporting anything older than 4 years or so.
More in response to your specific issues, with a G5 you can upgrade to OSX 10.5 (which doesn't require Intel except for iCloud and related) which will allow you to run newer iTunes. It's a bit of hassle and some cost.
Alternatively think about buying from some other online retailer such as Amazon and don't forget to write Apple saying what you're doing.
Edit:
A comment on Niel's suggestion, I don't think anything less than iTunes 10 gives you access to the iTunes store.

Apple ID. My newly updated iPad 2 wants an email for the apple ID. My apple ID is not an email address. How can I get past the set-up screen?

I can't change my Apple ID. It would mess all my stuff up.

To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone (if you're using iOS 7), then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

I am unable to get past the apple login screens on my iPad to access my settings menu for a new home network. My password is not recognized so I cannot even get into the settings mode to make a chance. How can I get past the Apple logins?

Hello Cocoscafe
If you have a rescue email address setup in your Apple ID profile, then you can reset the security questions. You would need to know those answers to get passed the screen to log in and verify.
Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions

The option to send an email to reset your security questions and answers will not be available if a rescue email address is not provided. You will need to contact iTunes Store support in order to do so.

TS1702 How do you get past the FAQ page on free music downloads??

How do you get past the FAQ page on free music downloads??

"BSOsoft". You really ought to practice asking coherent questions.
If I have downloaded the same app as you, I'd guess tapping the button called "Download All Pro - Click Here to Download" which is right at the top of the FAQ screen might be as good a guess as any.

Can't get past the Configure page

I got a new Airport Express (old one replaced by a Genius after MBP couldn't connect to it). I try to set up a new network but I'm failing. MBP recognizes AE but I can't get past the reconfigure screen. The page keeps loading but that's as far as I get. I can't get to the point of naming my network and choosing a password.
Since I had a different AE set up here, do I need to reset something to make the AE work again?
Thanks.

When the AirPort Express is new, it is broadcasting a default wireless network with a name like Apple Network xxxxxx, where the "x" can be either a number or letter.
Click the fan shaped AirPort icon at the top of your screen and look for this network. Your computer needs to be on this network in order to communicate with the AirPort Express.
An alternate way to do this is temporarily connect a spare ethernet cable from your computer to the AirPort Express. You can keep the ethernet cable connected during the configuration process and disconnect it when you have updated the Express with your new settings.

How can I get past the white screen?

When I start my iMac I see a message that my start up disk is full and that I need to delete files. After I type in my user name and password, all I see if a white screen. This problem started today. The error message about the start up disk started two days ago, and when I looked at the disk, I saw that over half of it has files described as "other". The hard drive is 250 GB. I have Time Machine backups but I don't know how to get to them to help me. So, I guess that I have two questions: how do I get past the white screen, and what are the files that are catogoraized as other? Thanks.

I did not put the OS info in my question because I am not sure what I have. I upgraded to Lion so that I could use the cloud between my devices, however I do not know the number.
Apple menu item->About this Mac and the version is listed there. Click on that and get the build number. Click again and get the machine's serial number.
I am stuck on the white screen. Any other advice?
Start with a google search for white screen mac. This one might do the trick: http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/apple-desktops/138137-imac-wont-get-passed-whit e-screen.html
