How to set up an Apple ID and password for iPhone 5S?

My wife and I recently bought an iPhone 5S. She's never had an Apple ID and password before. I'm trying to set one up through the iPhone that will be usable in iCloud for texts and email. I keep getting a "User name or password is incorrect." I'm guessing that, since she's never had an Apple account, the system is correctly denying via "User name or password is incorrect." So, I must be going about the set up incorrectly? Any recommendations on how to do it properly? Her only email account is with Earthlink. Thanks, Thor

    how do i find the wifi network name and passwordfor iphone 4s?

    Well Netgear will not know your password. The factory default user name for netgear is usually admin and the factory default is password is password.  Go to an internet browser and in the url windo type in 192.168.0.1 and if I am right a login window will appear.  Try the factory defaults.

  • I set up an apple ID and password on my iphone but then my MacBook Air won't recognize the password

    I set up an apple ID and password on my Iphone and the apple mail account works fine on the Iphone.
    I then went to my MacBook Air and entered the same ID and password to set up an apple mail account, but it says my password is incorrect.
    How can that be?

    More information--I deleted the apple email account from my iPhone and created an apple email account on my MacBook Air. It worked fine on the MacBook, but then the password would not be recognized on the iPhone. It is as if I can only have an apple email account on only one device at a time!

  • How do I get the user name and password for the Apple Extreme Router to connect to a Slingbox

    How do I get the user name and password for the Apple Extreme Router to set up my Slingbox?  It will not accept the Apple Extreme Name and password.

    The AirPort Extreme does not have a User Name, but it does have a device name and device password, which you may have already tried.
    There is also a Wireless Network Name and Wireless Network Password for the AirPort Extreme, which might be what the Slingbox is looking for if you are trying to connect it to your wireless network.
    There are no other "user names" or "passwords" on the AirPort Extreme.
    You established the device name, device password, wireless network name and wireless network password when you originally configured the AirPort Extreme.
    If you cannot remember these, you will need to perform a Soft Rest to reset everything. Follow the instructions in this Apple support document:

  • How do I remove the apple ID and password request when I open my apps and mail? it belongs to my daughter's itunes account

    How do I remove the apple ID and password prompt that appears frequently. It is prepopulated with an account for my daughter and not one I need on the IPAD...

    Go to Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap on her ID and sign out. Them sign in with your own ID.
    If there are apps on your iPad (and I assume that there must be) that your daughter purchased with her ID - they can only be updated by using her ID.

  • HT4352 I'm using the correct APPLE ID and password for Home Sharing on my computer but my AppleTv is not accepting it?  What's up with that???

    I'm using the correct APPLE ID and password for Home Sharing on my computer but my AppleTv is not accepting it?  What's up with that???

    I have the exact same issue. I also tried resetting my password. I can log in to iTunes on my laptop with the new password, on to my iPhone iTunes, but my Apple TV says it cannot recognize my password. I just did an Apple Tv software update a few days ago.
    I am able to log in to Netflix on my Apple TV just fine. I did not have to re-enter my password for that.
    Very frustrating. I hope Apple can figure this out soon and post a fix.
    Thanks for any advice.  Cheers.

  • How to get to see the usernames and passwords for wifi logins on iPad

    How to get to see the usernames and passwords for wifi logins on iPad. 

    You can't access that on an iPad. The iPad does not have a Keychain Access type app like the Mac has. Maybe an application like iExplorer on your Mac will let you see them, but you can't see them on the iPad itself.

  • How can i change my apple id and password, i have 2 ipads, when i upgrade the 2nd ipad for the new iOS 5, i apparently synch, including the apple ID of the first one, now I need to change ID on the 2nd?

    2 ipads were upgraded on itunes on the same laptop, apparently synch and picked up the apple ID and password on the 2nd ipad, how can I change the ID and password..thanks
    I created a new one but let say i go to apps store and install app, it will show dialog box with the 1st apple ID.

    If these are both yours on the same account then give them different names so iTunes can tell them apart.
    If the sync was an accident then do a "wipe" of the other iPad and set it up as new under a different ID and make sure iTunes knows it's a different accout, that is set it up as one, before you begin the sync.
