To listen to music with a headset or earbuds via bluetooth requires a bluetooth stereo headset.
File transfer via bluetooth is not supported. A friend or relative can purchase music for you via the iTunes music store with an iTunes store gift card or by sending you the music gift via email from iTunes.

How can I reset my iPad that I forgot the password to my linked account.

My iPad is linked to an old gmail account of mine that I believe has been hacked. I have tried everything to
reset my gmail password and it hasn't worked. I think someone changed all of my information. I have
tried to reset my iPad by holding down the home button and power button and connecting to iTunes. I
did the restore but now it is saying "This iPad is currently linked to an Apple ID. Sign in with the Apple ID
that was used to set up this iPad." It provides me with the Apple ID: m*****@gmail.com and wants me
to enter the password but I don't know the password and have tried everything to retrieve it. There's nothing
on the iPad so I don't care about erasing any data. How can I reset the iPad so that I can use it? Is there
another method besides the one I have already tried?

If your iPad is running iOS 7, there is no way you're going to be able to regain access to your iPad without the password for the Apple ID used by that iPad. You cannot even restore the iPad to factory settings without the password. This is an anti-theft feature.
You will need to contact Apple and try to regain control of your Apple ID. It is entirely possible, however, for the hacker to make changes to your Apple ID that would make it difficult or impossible to do that. You need to act as quickly as possible!

Help me figure out where to start learning flex/flash/air/etc.

Hi all,
I'm hoping a few generous souls can help figure out where to start learning to use Adobe programming / application tools. I've read through a lot of the info on Flash, Flash Builder, Flash Catalyst, Flex, Flex Builder, Actionscript and Air – and frankly my head is spinning.
Let me give you some context of what I know, and where I'm trying to get to.
What I know
CS4 - Dreamweaver / Photoshop / Illustrator / Fireworks
Raw html, and some css
Various macro languages over the years (excel - macro level meta-procedural stuff)
Basic database experience (mysql, database design)
Training in procedural languages like Pascal about 100 years ago (ok maybe 20)
Where I want to go
Develop online trivia application
Multiple, simultaneous users
Polished interface (look and feel wise) - 'flashy' if you will
Database connections on back end to serve questions and manage users
At a very basic level it would be similar to those trivia systems you see in bars, like this: http://www.buzztime.com/games.html , but with an educational focus / spin to it.
When I want to get there
I realize this isn't going to happen overnight. I'm hoping if I spend 20 hours a week or so I can put something basic together by the end of the summer. This is as much about learning the tools for me as building the app.
How I need help
I plan to get a Lynda.com subscription to help me learn the tools. The basic problem is I don't know which tools to learn, in what progression, to accomplish my goals. If I'm never going to use Actionscript or Air I'd rather not learn them. So what I need is 2 pieces of advice
For the app I described, what tool(s) would you build it in?
What is a good learning path for those tools?
Thank you in advance for any advice you can offer, I really appreciate your help!
Larry

For creating a web application using Flash, there are broadly two workflows (with different tools to use):
If you are a designer, you may want to start learning Adobe Flash Professional for a more design oriented feel application development:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/
You can start learning how to use the tool from here. You would also want to keep checking our developer network for new articles on Flash.
If you are a developer you would generally find Flex more natural because it allows you to code your application. For this you can use the Adobe opensource Software development kit or Adobe Flash Builder The Flash Builder IDE comes with support for intelligent coding, debugging, and visual design and features powerful testing tools that speed up development and lead to higher performing applications.
For starting with Flex and Flash Builder, you can check out the 'Flex in a week' videos:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/videotraining/
As you go along the videos you can also check Flex language reference:
Alternatively, you can also use Adobe Flash Catalyst (still in Beta) to design your application. Catalyst will generate Flex code for you. This code can then be imported in Adobe Flash Builder where you can use Flash Builder Data centric features to connect to a database backend.
Learn about Flash Catalyst here:

Can't install Win7--help me figure out if it's the MB, CPU, or RAM--please....

Bought the MSI Z68A-GD65(gen3) board, 2600k CPU, Vengeance 1600 ram, and an EVGA 560Ti card--plus a crapload of other stuff to make my new computer. I had a Lian Li case, but it was small and 7 years old. I decided to spring for the Corsair Obsidian 650D--what a sweet a$$ case! Anyway, the build went find (even the huge 9900MAX). Computer boots, and runs like a champ.
That is, until I try to install Windows. It crashes on the "completing installation" after the 1st reboot--the system shuts down, reboots, and goes to "Windows did not shut down properly." When Windows is restarted, the next screen says the installation failed and to restart. A restart takes it right back to the "installation failed" message. To figure it out, I tried a lot of different alternatives, and the crash happens at the same spot in every installation. I've tried AHCI on and off. I tried different RAM speeds, different RAM sticks, different sata 2 & 3 slots. I've tried installing to an SSD and a regular HD, also tried with/without the vid card. I've tried installing Win7, Vista64, and Vista32 (I'd try 98 if I had that). They all crash the system at the same spot--right after the 1st reboot during the "completing installation" section.
Tomorrow, I have 2 sticks of G.Skill Ripsaw ram coming. The Corsair Vengeance wasn't on the compatibility list, but it's well respected RAM, but I want to try the easiest fix first. If that fails, would you think it's the CPU or the motherboard? I would have to think it's one or the other because I've tried everything else (except the power supply--an OCZ 750 I've had for a couple of years). Before installing the CPU, I did take a magnifying glass to look at the pins. I didn't notice any issues, but then again, there's a ton of pins. I have a tech request in for the MB, but they won't see it for a couple of days. I use my computer for business (and maybe a game now and then , and I need to get this sucker going.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Got it fixed!!!
It was the power supply. Go figure. The power supply worked on the last build, but it was older and had the 12v rail split up. Probably underpowered for a i7/560 system even though it was a 700w PSU.

How can I avoid that a virus read out all passwords memoried by Firefox? It was happend two weeks ago!

My children where using some web sites about games to solve some problems. During this use a virus came via web interface into my desktop. My virus scanner shows this but could not avoid that this virus read out all my accounts memorized in Firefox and sent it into dark channels.
I could restore the way how my accounts leave my Desktop. There was some accounts only memorized into Firefox inclusive passoword. These accounts would used from other persons in the meantime.
My questions are:
- How save are the memorized accounts-password combinations?
- And: Is it possible that the Firefox Sync Account can transfer the virus from PC to PC by using the same Sync-Account? Or can I be sure that all other Firefox installations at other PSs will be clean after this attack at one Firefox-Installation during all installations use the same Sync-Account? What this question means in background: Via Sync can Plugins be installed at other systems. What happens, when a virus install a special virus-plugin? Would Sync it move to all other PCs?
Best regards, Frank

If you are using Sync to sync passwords then you likely aren't using a Master Password to protect the password.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Protecting+stored+passwords+using+a+master+passwor
If you suspect such a virus infection then you should cleanup your computer and change all the compromised passwords immediately.
Do a malware check with several malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.
Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.

I lost my password to my Mac book air ! How can i do To recover.

Pleas help me

If is Lion, the old way of using the Password Reset menu choice is no longer available. I'm pretty sure Apple made it a bit more complicated, as now you simply boot off an internal partition, and Apple wanted it to be a tad more secure, by adding in this complexity. Then again, if you know the procedure, then even that security is gone.
You use the following technique to reset the Administrators password on a Lion system with a recovery partition:
Boot to your Lion Recovery Partition, by holding down the Option key while starting, and then selecting the Recovery HD as the boot choice.
Once booted, at the top of the screen is a menu ..., select Utilities / Terminal from the menu bar.
In the Terminal window, type “resetpassword” (without the quotes) and press return. A “Reset Password” window will open. Select your boot volume (your SSD drive) if it is not already selected. Select your administrators username from the menu labeled “Select the user account” if it is not already selected. Follow the prompts to reset the password. Restart the computer from the apple menu.

Help me urgently please, impossible to open my Mac book air, sometimes he refuse my login, sometimes he goes further but the screen is never uploaded completely, he goes off before, and he take hours for all that, till than he have been perfect...

I'm having problems to open my Mac, sometimes he refuse my login several times, when I insist he start, very slowly but he never gets to the final, he doesn't upload the screen completely, can you help me? thank you

BTW (speaking as a Dad of 3 daughters in Grad school) if you don't already have and use a DropBox account, or some other similar online "cloud" based backup of your school documents, you should start doing so immediately. By keeping all of your important documents in the Dropbox folder on your computer, you have instant access to them from any other computer (or iPad), should you be w/o your computer while in for repairs (or if, God forbid, it is stolen). It's free for 2 GB of online storage, which is more than enough for a few years worth of Word documents, etc. (If you get other people to sign up via your email "invitation", then Dropbox gives you even more free storage space.) Every time you close a document, it is updated on the Dropbox servers (encrypted), if it is in the Dropbox folder (assuming you give it a few seconds to update before turning off your computer). Do a google search of "Cloud based storage comparisons" to compare the amount of free space each of the competing services give you.

After a year of no use and a fully discharged battery, my MacBook Pro refuses to accept the administrator name and the password. How can I reset these?

After a year of no use and a resulting fully discharged battery, the MacBook Pro refuses to recognize the administrator name and password (both). It has system OS X 10.6 which can not be upgraded without the information. How can I reset or reistall the administrator name and password?

Thanks to all who responded. You are all absolutely correct. However, this Ipad was a gift to my wife who was dying of cancer in the hospital and wanted some entertainment. So I started it out with her Apple ID. After she passed away I moved from Sacramento to Austin and eventually proceeded to get the Apple ID changed from my wife's to mine. Meanwhile when she was in the hospital I opened an Itunes account in my name to buy movies for her. That was the first mistake.
Then during the move to Austin I lost track of the IPAD and later found it and tried to use support but could not remember the proper ID. Later the folks at the Apple store helped me create a new and novel Apple ID that was unfortunately unlike any other.
The botom line is that I am stuck with three Apple IDs and three passwords. I am told by Apple there is nothing they can do about this as IDs cannot be changed or destroyed. I can quit using them or start a new account but when I try to do that the system keeps remembering too many things from the past and resists.
Even if I sold this Ipad and bought a new one, the system memory is still there.
I think the real problem is that destop and laptop computers are totally owned by an individual and that individual can control logins and passwords to his liking. IPADs and similar Apple products are different in that the corporation has built in their own intrusion detection schemes because of the relation to Itunes.
One thing I thought about is to open a new Itunes account pretendding to be a new customer with my regular Apple ID. Perhaps I could do the same with Apple Support.
Thanks for your comments.

If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode
iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
iOS- Understanding passcodes
     If you have forgotten your Restrictions code, then follow the instructions
     below but DO NOT restore any previous backup. If you do then you will
     simply be restoring the old Restrictions code you have forgotten. This
     same warning applies if you need to restore a clean system.
A Complete Guide to Restore or Recover Your iDevice (if You Forget Your Passcode)
If you need to restore your device or ff you cannot remember the passcode, then you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
Follow these steps to restore your device:
     1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
     2. Connect your device to your computer.
     3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
     4. Select the Summary tab.
     5. Select the Restore option.
     6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
         option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
         necessary to create another.
     7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
         you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
     8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
         logo while starting up:
           After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
          to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
          iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
          you see "iPhone is activated."
     9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup. If you do not have a
          backup to restore, then restore as New.
