How can I reset the Apple ID on my iphone to match my correct Apple ID?
When I pull up my Apple ID on my computer and log in to itunes, it has the correct Apple ID; however, the Apple ID on my iphone is still linked to an inactive email address. Help!
Thanks to another user, I found that you go to Settings, then click iTunes & App Store, and you can reset from there. No need to wipe your whole phone!

How can I reset the apple Id security passwords?
The Three Best Alternatives for Security Questions and Rescue Mail
1. Use Apple's Express Lane.
Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the
bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then
'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Forgotten Apple
ID security questions' and click 'Continue'.
2. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contact Apple support.
3. Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions.
A substitute for using the security questions is to use 2-step verification:

I bought this phone from someone and then I unlocked it using that gevey sim i think -- using it for T-mobile..
I can't get Imessage to work on my phone number because the old number is there and it is grayed out and cannot be edited.
I can use it but not with my phone number, only with email.
Can someone please tell me how to fix this so that I can send with my number?
Thanks so muchThe advisor should not have told you this for legal reasons. There is no way of tracking the iPhones just of finding out which SIM cards were used to activate them and if they were activated at all. Court can authorize Apple to release this information to the count. There is no legal way without involving a judge.

Hi dear sir/Madam i have my apple id & its password but i forgot the answers of the security questions and i have no rescue email pls help me how can i reset the security questions? as i have some credit in my account i can not creat a new apple id.
You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

Another user had success doing the following:
I got some help from an apple assistant on the phone. It is kind of round about way to get in.
Here is what he said to do and it is working for me...
a. on the device that is asking you for the security questions go to "settings", > "store" >
tap the Apple ID and choose view"Apple ID" and sign in.
b. Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select
"done", in the upper right corner
c. sign out and back into iTunes on the device by going to "settings"> "store" > tap the
Apple ID and choose "sign-out" > Tap "sign -in" > "use existing Apple ID" and you
should be asked to verify your security code for the credit /debit card and NOT the
security questions.
d. At this time you can remove the card by going back in to edit the payment info and
selecting "none" as the card type then saving the changes by selecting "done". You
should now be able to use your iTunes store credit without answering the security
questions.
It's working for me ...I just have to put in my 3 digit security pin from the credit card I am using.
Good Luck friends! -

My wireless router needed restart. And, no Apple TV signal. How do I reset the Apple TV box? no lite. nothing
The remote app requires both to be on the same network and home sharing to be enabled, you will need the physical remote to set this up. You can purchase a replacement through Apple.

How can I reset the screen colors/resolution on an old white macbook?
My screen shows neon colors and a zigzag shapes. How can I reset the color resolution? This laptop was supposedly fixed but when returned all my data had been "lost". The certified mac tech said he reinstalled the OS but lost all my desktop files and HD and couldn't recover. ODDLY, when I started the machine and started fresh, my old hard drive was still there! Although he'd wiped out my current desktop files- gone. But, the screen colors went wonky all of the sudden and I don't know how to resert or correct the resolution. Can any one share a suggestion?
With that kind of issue after returning from a repair where a tech was inside the computer, it should be returned to the same place for an evaluation of the problem, a diagnosis, and perhaps they need to check their work to see if something came loose while they had it apart.
The System Preferences> Displays has a panel to select settings.
You may have to try & see about a reset of System Management Controller http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964 Or, if reset of NVRAM http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379 may help. Not sure if these would do anything if there is hardware damage.
Good luck & happy computing! -
