Whilst trying to restore my computer is asking for a password to an email address with my surname in it but not made by me?

I Tried updating my iPhone 4 to ios7. Have been trying for 7 hours to no avail. It comes up with an apple and grey bar however no download is appearing on the bar. My laptop is now asking for a password to an email address unrecognizable to me? When I cancel out it displays error number 4005. I have installed up to date iTunes, restarted etc etc. am starting to go mad!

That sounds like a lock PIN put on via Icloud - can you log into iCloud and unlock it?

Try getting a refund for it. Unless you’re the device’s original owner, Apple won’t unlock it for you.

I CLOUD ASKING FOR PASSWORD ON AN OLD EMAIL ADDRESS

Hello,
I cloud asking for a password for an old email address , taking over Ipad now, cannot change email address have changed my apple id and password about 5 times now , and still the old email address comes up!
Can I factory reset the Ipad to clear everything and start again ?

The iPhone is linked to the iCloud account and Find My iPhone
The device can display a different Apple ID or iCloud account then it's linked to.
The way to check this is iCloud.com
Get signed in with you Apple ID/iCloud account and password
Select the Find My iPhone
Select the "All Devices"
Select the device
Wipe and remove it from the account
Restore the device
You can do the same from Find My iPhone App from an iOS device
Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account

I have bought a second hand ipod 4, but it has the previous owners details all over it, for example it has her email address when trying to update facebook. How do I update it with my email address?

I have just purchased a second hand ipod touch 4. The previous owners details are still in it, so for example when I try to update the facebook app it asks me for the previous owners password, and shows the previous owners email address. How do I change it all to my details? I have already synced it with itunes and all of my music is now in it, and it's also renamed on the itunes page when I attach the ipod to my PC. I've also been in to the 'info' page, 'Advanced' and then 'Replace information on this ipod with mail accounts from this computer' then finally 'apply', but it still has the other persons ID.

I've answered my own question! I now understand that you can't use apps as they are always going to be linked to the original owner. I've since deleted the app and downloaded it again, and all is now well!

Asking for "Date of Birth", receiving "Email Addresses"????

On a registration form I have on-line, I ask registrants for their "date of birth". On the response summary sheet, I am receiving only "email addresses" as a direct responses for that question. Does anyone know why? FYI...I do later ask for their email address and I later am receiving it correctly...so for some reason I am getting that answer twice and not getting dates of births??????? Help?????

Patrick,
I am unable to look at the design of the form since you have set me as a Reader and not a Co-Author. As a Reader I have looked at the View Responses table and what I see is that when I select a cell in the column labled Date of Birth the cell type is reported as E-mail. What you need to do is go to the Design tab, select the Date of Birth field, and in the Field Properties set the field type to Date.
This is a best guess since, again, I am not a Co-author and cannot view the form Design tab.

Ok so I'm trying to update my iPad, and it keeps "timing out." I got to the actual update process, and it failed and asked me to restore my iPad, but I just can't lose all of my apps and photos! I payed for a lot of my apps, and my photos are just too important. Someone please help!

If rhe apps and photos are that important you made sure that you took the steps in order to keep them safe in an event like this didn't you?
You did backup the iPad before you decided to update the iPad correct?
And you did transfer all of your apps and other purchases into iTunes before you decided to update correct?
If you did, just restore the iPad and then restore from the backup at the end of fhe process and follow that with a sync with iTunes and you will lose nothing,
Now if you didn't do any of the precautionary steps ....

I have tried everything from reserting my password to trying different passwords but it asks me for a custom question that i dont remember creating.

You need to use Apple's iForgot service or contact their Account Security team.

You may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 - you should then be able to reset the iPad and restore/resync your content to it

my ipad is still asking for the passcode while restoring and its dispalying and an error message. what should i do because i cant acess my ipad anymore. someone help me.

Try and force iPad into Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.
