How can I get past the questions, to change password

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
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5312
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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • I changed my exchange password and iPad won't recognize new password. I can't get past the box telling me password is incorrect to access settings or anything else. Ideas?

    Am unable to access anything on iPad because it tells me my exchange password is incorrect

    I couldn't get past the dialog box in order to delete since it seemed to be stuck in some sort of loop..  I found the answer under "More like this".  Had to do a reset (hold power and home buttons for 10 seconds).  When iPad eventually came back to life, the dialog box was gone and I was able to get into Settings and reset the password.  All fixed now!

  • How can i get past the low ink screen?

    ok i know there is a way to make your printer "get past" where it tells you that you need to replace the ink cartridge, and it just might not show the right ink levels. i know this because i have gotten past it before, I just do not remember how. to all of you out there reading this that know...PLEASE help!! look, i am a single mom working 2 jobs and hardley have enough money to feed my kids and put gas in my car with what i make no i dont need sympathy i just need to know how to get past this issue. I refilled my ink cartridge because i can not afford to spend $125.00 on new ink cartridges. the last time i did, they leaked out of my printer and almost ruined the printer AND the table i had it on! And YES THEY WERE HP CARTRIDGES!!! if anyone knows how to get past this issue PLEASE let me know!!! I am trying to print out my resume and it wont let me past this screen. the issue of it being under warranty does not matter because that is long past and yes i will take the chance of it being ruined because if i dont get past this the printer is going out the window and yes then it be solved.PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hello , Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I understand that you're getting a 'Low Ink' message on the front panel of your HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-in-One Printer and would like to bypass this message. The ink system in your specific model of printer requires ink to be in the cartridges for the printer to function. Ink is required for printing, but also for regular maintenance on your printer. The Semi-Permanent Printheads within your product control ink for going on the page. If your printer is not able to perform regular maintenance because it has empty ink cartridges installed, damage may be caused to the Printheads. Should the Printheads become clogged or defective they will also need to be replaced. For additional ink usage information please click here.  When printing from your computer, colour ink may be used to print black, depending on the program that you're printing from. If you prefer to print in only black ink and save your colour cartridges you can set your print driver to 'Black Ink Only'. However, your printer cannot be in an error state for these changes to take affect. Therefore, if you would like to adjust your print driver setting to use only Black ink when printing black only documents, you will need to replace your depleted cartridges first.  I am happy to provide additional assistance with adjusting your print driver setting once you have replaced the depleted cartridges. I look forward to hearing from you!

  • 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.
    Uncle Jim Serna

    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.

  • 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?

    Click here and try recovering the account information. If needed, phone Apple’s Account Security team.

  • How can I get past the error message "Variables are not compatible DMB00"?

    Hello,
    I'm working in Desktop Intelligence XI and I'm using an Excel data provider and a universe data provider. I've linked the two providers on the common field "Cost_Code". The Excel data provider also has a "Cost_Code_Descr_xls" field so I've created a new variable that makes this description field a detail object associated with the "Cost_Code" dimension. This allows me to use both objects in the report.
    Some of the cost codes in my universe data provider are not found in my cost_code Excel provider so I'm trying to create a simple formula to deal with these null values:
    = if isnull(<Cost_Code_Descr_xls>) then "Unclassified" else <Cost_Code_Descr_xls>
    This is where I get the "Variables are not compatible" error.
    Any ideas on how to get around this error?
    Thanks!
    David

    Hi David,
    I might have been a bit to quick with just saying that the only thing you needed to do was replacing the object with the variable you created.
    The variable is only compatible with 'Cost Code' dimension, but not with any of the other dimensions in the report. Your header probably only contains the 'Cost Code' dimension and as such the formula isn't giving any problems. But your details contain ohter incompatible dimensions.
    What you need to do is also create detail variables for the other dimensions and relate those to the 'Cost Code' dimension. Use those newly created detail variables  in your report.
    Regards,
    Harry

  • How can I get past the "time to dowload the new Skype app" since I don't want to?

    This message come up when I open Skype: "time to dowdload the new Skype app". I started to download it but in reading the fine print it seems to be a subscription that I'm going to be paying for.

  • How can I get past the corporate email set-up "Can't connect to the server" message?

    I have followed all the directions, double checked all entries, but still can't set-up my email account.  HELP!

    First, have you asked your "Corporate" IT group for help?  That may be the place to start.
    Secondly, if IT is of no help what are "all the directions" that are you following?  Be specific.  Are you using the stock Email app?  Trying to set up the account manually or automatically?  If manually do you know all the port addresses, server names, and security types that you are using?  POP3 or IMAP?
    Thirdly, a common mistake is using "name" instead of "[email protected]" for your username when setting up the email.
