  • I have 2 devices, and I inadvertently set up a new account on one.  Now I can't download books that are on my Nook to my Android G3 and vice versa.  I can't remember the login for the nook.  How can I change it?

    I inadvertently set up a new account on an android and it doesn't match the ID for a Nook.  I cannot share library books between the devices, and I can't remember the login I used for the nook.  The nook books appear on my bookshelf from the library, but when I try to download to my android, it won't allow it as it is set up as a different account.  The library can't help me and Barnes & Noble can't help me.  I need support from Adobe to fix my login.

  • How do I change my security settings and make them STAY changed?

    I have set my settings in Tools - Options - Privacy - Never remember history - about a thousand times now, but it never STAYS set to that. It keeps reverting back to Use custom settings for history instead, which is annoying in the extreme and is ultimately a security risk.
    This has only happened since I upgraded to Firefox 4.0.1 - it was set on Never remember history in the previous version and remained on that beautifully. How do I get this newer version to retain what I set it at please???? It's driving me mental!!!!

    Only if all settings are the default then you will see "Firefox will: (Never) Remember History".<br />
    The "Use custom settings for history" choice reverts to "(Never) Remember history" if all History and Cookies settings are the default.<br />
    If you see "Use custom settings for history" then at least one of the History / Cookie settings is not the default.
    If you select "Never Remember history" then you enter Private Browsing mode and "Permanent Private Browsing mode" will be selected.

  • How do I change my iCloud username and password without loosening my music

    My mum just gave me her iPad and she brought me some music from iTunes useing her account for me. I've now changed the iTunes account to my name and details, but now it doesn't match the iCloud account. How do I change the iCloud account to my name without loosening the music she brought for me?

    You could set up two different accounts. One for iCloud services like Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Notes etc. (Settings > iCloud) for your personal stuff and one for store purchases like Music, Apps etc. (Settings > iTunes &amp; App Stores) e.g. your mom's Apple ID.

    Hi Ed,
    This document describe the process but for Adobe Application Manager rather than Creative Cloud for desktop.

    You access the setting in Creative Cloud for desktop from the gear icon in the top right and then going to Preferences and to the Account section

  • I forgot my security question and i guess i failed all mt atempts, what can i do ? please urgently..

    Hello,
    i forgot my security question and i guess i failed all mt atempts, what can i do ? please urgently..

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • I've got a new laptop, how do set up a new account and what will happen to the old account on my old laptop?

    I have a new laptop and I want to set up a new account. Can I do this when I already have an account set up on my old laptop? what will have to the old account if I set up a new one? how do i set up a new account?

    What exactly do you mean by account?  you wan to set a user on your laptop?
    Do you wan to get a new apple Id on the new laptop? Why?
    Are these laptops Macs?
    What exactly are you trying to do?
    And what does this have to to with Appleworks, which is a long since discontinued Office suit.

  • HT5312 Am I do not know how to change my rescue email as it is wrong and in can not remember my answers to my security questions so I want to change them but I can't as I have the wrong rescue email anyone know how to change your rescue email

    Am I do not know how to change my rescue email as it is wrong and in can not remember my answers to my security questions so I want to change them but I can't as I have the wrong rescue email anyone know how to change your rescue email

    You won't be able to change it until you can answer 2 of your questions - you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to update your rescue email address for potential future use.

  • I'm trying to sign in to my iTunes and it's asking me my security questions. It says my answers are wrong. How do I change my security questions

    I'm trying to sign into my iTunes and it won't let me because it's asking me my security questions. I've answered them but it says there wrong. It won't let me sign in how do I change my security questions

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then see if this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551
    e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then try Apple ID Account Security
    or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57

  • How do I change my security questions? I forget them because I made them ages ago and can't seem to buy anything off my account without having to answer them?? Help

    How do I change my security questions? I forget them because I made them ages ago and can't seem to buy anything off my account without having to answer them?? Help

    1. First, go to http://appleid.apple.com. Underneath where it says "Already have an Apple ID?," click Manage your Account. You will then need to sign in. If you forgot your Apple ID or password, click on the appropriate "Forgot..." link below either of these fields.
    2. After you sign in, click on "Passwords and Security" on the left.
    3. You will be asked to answer the security questions, but you should also notice a link below the second "Answer" field offering to send reset instructions to your rescue email address that you provided.
    4. Check the Inbox of your rescue email address. The email should appear within a minute or two. If it does not, be sure to check Spam. If it is not there either, you can repeat the above process to resend. Once you get the email, following the link will take you to a page where you must sign in again. After doing so, you will have the option to choose three new security questions and answers, which you may want to write down
    5. After you fill in the required information and continue, you should be taken to a confirmation screen stating "Your password and security information has been saved," and then you are done.
    6. The "Forgot your answers?" link will not appear if you do not have a rescue email address set up. In that case you will need to contact iTunes Support, http://apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    7. If you still know the answers to your security questions, it is highly recommended you add a rescue email address. To do so, log in at appleid.apple.com and click on Password and Security. Answer the questions and then click on "Add Rescue Email Address:"

  • HT5312 How do I change my security questions, when I already have 3 and a account? You only explain things when you make an account, which obviously doesnt help if you already have one.

    How do you change your security questions? Apple has changed everything once again and I HATE IT!!! I never had to use my security questions and now I do. I have the ipod touch 1, obviously it has been forever since I've made them so i dont remember them. They tell me to go to my Apple ID and click security tab to send an email. Well, What the heck do you do when the only way to do that is by remembering the security questions and answers, when that is your problem??? I NEED HELP!!!!

    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use, or if it's available in your country you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

    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!
