How to downgrade 10.8 ML to 10.7 Lion, My Mac was pre-install with 10.7, and the Copy of M.L was not purchased for app store .
I am bit confuse, how to deal with it, somewhere i read that I should erase the Hardrive and use Internet recovery but not sure. If I reinsatll it form 10.8 Recovery disk it ask for apple ID , but I didn't purchase ML.
Great! Then it came with Lion pre-installed and all you have to do is Internet Recovery as mende1 pointed out. COMMAND+R+OPTION keys held until you see a spinning globe then you can erase the drive using OS X Utilities and Disk Utility then reinstall Lion from the OS X Utilities menu.
I'm running ML that I got from the App Store on a mid-2011 Mac Mini. Internet Recovery ALWAYS gives me the ability to reinstall Lion which is what was pre-installed.
You don't want to use the current Recovery HD which is Mountain Lion. You want to use Internet Recovery.

Import the music into your iTunes library and sync like any other music.

how do I add an ipad to devices in my itunes account which was previously associated with another account?
Just sign into your own ID in Settings>iTunes & App Store. Sign out of the old ID and sign into your ID. I get the feeling though, that there is more to what you are trying to do or want to do and I'm not understanding or you are not explaining completely.
If this is a previously owned iPad, it should have been erased before you got possession of it. -

so im trying to buy logic pro and just recently put enough money in gift cards on my account but every time i click buy app and go to billing info and then click ok it just shoots me to the first screen and did not charge for app how can i buy it ?
This may sound stupid, but I'm gonna throw it out there anyway. Is it possible, that if I have enough junk on my desktop it might disrupt the signal? It seems odd, but it kind of looks like my signal is strong and relatively steady now that I've cleaned my desktop. I do tend to get very cluttered. I use a lot of reference images and save text clippings to use later... it just piles up very quickly.
So, I wonder if all that extra effort my system has to do keeping up with the junk might have something to do with the drop outs? -
On my iPad I have a working icloud that I have complete access to, but on my iPhone it keeps asking me for the password for it, but I do not know it! And the email that I used is not activated anymore! How do I delete the icloud account on my phone?
Hi Aurion23,
If you intend to keep using iCloud on your iPad, your best course of action would be to update your Apple ID/iCloud information so that you have a known password and it is associated with an active email address. You may find the following articles helpful:

My iphone 4 started displaying a message box with the following message: "This accessory is not optimized for this phone. You may experience noise and loss of battery." My question is: Why is this happening and how do I fix it? (I'm losing battery power precipitously). Thanks in advance for any assistance with this question.
Thanks Kilted Tim, you solved the problem. I'm mightily impressed at the simplicity of the solution!

To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it. The app was pre-installed, how do I get past this message?
The the account you used to "purchase" iPhoto is the Apple ID you used to set yoru couputer up with - log into th eApp store using that Apple ID and look under purchases - if you have not accepted the App yet then you will have to accept it first

Email messages from my personal email account are being posted (copied) to SMS messages. I have a new cell device (swtched from Droid to iPhone) and this is happening on the new device also. The copy/forward to SMS is NOT being initiated by my email provider, and not by Gmail. How do I end ûVerizon's forwarding my personal email to SMS?
Thanks.Maybe I'm missing something but how can Verizon have control over your personal GMail account? Sounds like you do have your email set up to forward to sms.
I have certain emails that are forwarded to me as SMS but that is an option that is enabled on the email side of things and is independent from Verizon. -
How do I re-install iMovie when it was pre-installed on the iMac and no disks were in the box?
Hi,
I purchased my iMac in August 2011. It came pre-installed with iMovie and other iLife applications. Recently I have had some issues with iMovie (it crashes on start-up) and i came to the conclusion to try a re-install.
However as it was pre-installed and no disks were provided i'm a little confused how, without purchasing it again in the Mac App store. I have looked in the Mac App store in Purchases and iMovie or no other iLife apps appear there. So i know if i purchase it again i will be charged.
Can any one help - or has had this problem in the past?
Note: I am running Moutain Lion now but when it was purchased it had Snow Lepoard installed and as soon as I booted it up i installed Lion as i was given a free copy by Apple when i bought the Mac. If this helps anything.
Cheers,
TimHi Ralph,
I live in the UK and i have called apple support but it is all automated and as i don't have apple care they said that i would need to open an incident which would cost £35. iMovie on the Mac App store is only £10.50!
do you know of another way of contacting them for an issue like this? is there anyone i can speak to on an online chat? -

If it happens again the make sure that you aren't suppressing website colors.
Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Accessibility settings.

How can I change Apple ID for App Store?
I changed my Apple ID, Itunes on my Itouch recognizes it, but the app store does not. How can I change AppleID for App Store? When I try to update my apps it asks for the password for my old Apple ID which does not exist anymore.
Thank you for the reply. I've done that twice and have no problem getting into the ITunes store. Problem is that I have 12 apps that want to be updated. I go to App Store and slect to "update all" and first thing it does is bring up my old AppleID (no place to change it) and asks for the password for that Apple ID.
I tried doing a sync to my computer in case that would work, but no help. I wonder if I will have to do a complete reset just to fix this??? -
