How to reset your Apple ID security questions
Go to appleid.apple.com and click on the blue button that says 'Manage Your Apple ID'.
Log in with your Apple ID and password. If you have forgotten your Apple ID password, go to iforgot.apple.com first to reset your password with a password recovery email.
Go to the Password & Security section on the left side. Then underneath the security questions click on the link that says 'Forgot your answers? Send reset security info email to [email]'.  This will generate an automated e-mail that will allow you to reset your security questions. 
If that doesn't work, or  there is no rescue email link available, then:
click on 'Temporary Support PIN' that is in the bottom left side, and generate a 4-digit PIN for the Apple Account Security Advisor you will be contacting later. 
Next, go to getsupport.apple.com. If you see a message that says 'There are no products registered to this Apple ID, simply click on 'See all products and services'.
Choose 'More Products & Services', then 'Apple ID'.
A new page will open.  Choose 'Other Apple ID Topics', then 'Forgotten Apple ID Security Questions'.
Click the blue 'Continue' button.
Select the contact option that suits your needs best.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

    If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.

  • How do I find out where iTunes thinks missing files are?

    I have several hundred "missing" files in my iTunes library but they are all actually on the computer. But I don't remember where the were previously. I add dozens of songs at a time to my library all the time and there is no Earthly way for me to constantly remember where they were before. I don't just want to reimport the files because I have several hundred playlists with these files and it would be completely stupid to edit them all one at a time when all I need to do is to move them back to where iTunes thinks they should be. So where is that? The Windows media player has a column that displays file location. Why doesn't iTunes? (This is so stupid. It makes things -not just this- so much easier when you have the file location in the music list in your music player.)
    Is there a way to find out where iTunes thinks the missing files should be at?

    The exclamation mark means ITunes doesn't think they are anywhere.
    If you right click - get info on a song then view the Info tab, you will see where iTunes last used it from.
    I'm not a newbie. I know quite a lot about iTunes. You sound like you don't though because if you did you would know that this is not true. If you "right click - get info on a song" (pressing cancel to the Locate popup) "then view the SUMMARY (not info) tab" you will see "Not Available" where the file location usually is. I wouldn't have asked this question if I hadn't gone through the steps already.
    Thanks for trying though. Next time, please try the advice before you give it.

    You should not have to remember anything about where they were.
    I agree.
    Are you always moving them around?
    When I install a new hard drive. Yes. I generally keep everything organized and I let iTunes keep the folder organized but several years ago I used windows media player to organize my media.
    Frankly I don't know HOW the recent songs/videos/etc. go missing. But some do. Maybe I accidentally move a folder without realizing it. Mistakes happen. Then I need to move it back but since I didn't know I did it in the first place I can't possibly be expected to remember where I moved it from.
    Do you have iTunes prefs -> Advanced Keep ITunes music folder organized ticked and Copy files to iTunes ... ticked?
    *OF COURSE!* Again, I'm not a newbie.
    I have several hundred playlists with these files
    Why would you have several hundred playlists?
    I don't mean to sound rude but you sound like an Apple fanboy. Are you trying to tell me how I should use my own program? The answer to the question is I am a salsa instructor/DJ and I am constantly adding songs and videos to my library. Every month I have various salsa events, classes and performances that I do. I use my iPhone for the music. I need to maintain the playlists because students/teachers/studios/clubs/bars/churches/etc. call me back and want a repeat of the great salsa night I gave them a year ago. Naturally my playlists are highly organized into folders. So, I still have them and I need them.
    Apple has its own ideas about how people should use its stuff but everyone is unique and our needs therefore are unique too. Apple doesn't realize this and still wants us to do things "the Apple way" even though "the Apple way" only works well for people who want their hand held through everything. This is why I say you sound like a fanboy. You don't know my situation and question if I need hundreds of playlists. I do.
    I just need an answer to the question.
    Thank you for your reply though. It gave me hope, for a time.

  • How do I find out where the missing filter is used?

    After upgrade, Premiere CS4 is complaining missing filter upon opening a CS3 project.  How do I find out where the filter is used?
    Thanks!

    When I have opened older Projects in later versions, I have gotten a very useful dialog screen, telling me of missing Transitions (exact name and TimeCode), and of missing Effects. Do you not get such?
    When you Open the CS3 Project, is any Clip flagged?
    Considering how well PrPro has picked up on missing 3rd party stuff, I would be surprised, that it did not give you all of the necessary info.
    Good luck,

  • How do I find out what is in the cloud so I can delete it?

    This is a complete outrage.  All I did was support Apple and was told to sign in to cloud and now I am told I am using too much space.  No idea what this is about and no way to call because I cannot talk.  How do I find out what is in the cloud so I can delete it?   Is this e-mail, Word documents, or something else?  What the heck are they talking about?

    It's everything that's stored in icloud: email, backups, calendars, contacts, app data (including iwork documents), .... on and on.
    If you need to delete some data to recover some free storage...
    You'd have to go into the various apps on a device that is also stored on iCloud and begin trimming files.
    Backups:
    Go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backups>Manage Storage; there, tap the device you need info on and the resulting screen lists Backup Options with which apps store data on iCloud.  Turn off camera roll and any other apps that might have a lot of data.  Then delete the backup.  That will free up space.  Photos should be regularly synced to a computer (like you store photos from a digital camera) using either USB via iTunes (on a mac use iPhoto or Aperture to move them to an album) or using photo stream. Go to Settings>iCloud and turn
    Emails:
    Regarding emails, on the computer, move emails from mailboxes in icloud to those on the device.  That can also save a lot of space.
    Go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backups>Manage Storage
    From there you can find how much and which files are in a backup, and how much different apps use to store data files.  At the bottom of the screen is the size of the mail storage.

  • How do I find out where in firefox a suspicious piece of software is?

    Somehow a program/plugin/extension named (keeptube) will show up everytime I am on a website that has linked a youtube video. Its a piece of code that takes you to a site that allows you to download youtube videos (http://savemedia.com ). So the website and the button have different names .
    Its not very well programmed because it consistantly places itself over the "view on youtube","make fullscreen" and "settings" buttons at the bottom right corner of the video every time I am on such a page.
    I need to get rid of it.
    Neither "DO NOT" show up in addons/plugins/extensions.
    Again, neither names "DO NOT" show up in addons/plugins/extensions. (sry I needed to make this clear so I dont get the oft repeated reply to situations like this).
    What do I do to find out where its coming from?
    thanks for your time,
    Jerome.
