Go to http://appleid.apple.com.
To clarify, the mere act of changing the Apple ID on the device will not remove any content. But you cannot update the apps or re-sync them if they get deleted without the old Apple ID. It may be best to download them again with the new ID.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
Where it says place the iPod in recovery mode use this program:
RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I have a lot of bookmarks, and I want to search them, similar to a file search on my computer; how can I do that? Please say it can be done.

I need to be able to search my Firefox bookmarks. For example, I know I have a bookmark with wot in the name of it, but for the very life of me I cannot find it amongst all the bookmarks I have. There must be around a thousand (not exaggerating). I have no idea at all where I have saved it, and I know it's there, but I cannot find it.
So how do I search my bookmarks similar to like I would search my computer for files?
If FF doesn't have this capability, could you PRETTY PLEASE consider adding this functionality?

Firefox does allow bookmark searching. From the 'Bookmarks' menu select 'Show all Bookmarks' (Ctrl + Shift + B). A new window will open showing the Bookmarks library. At the top right corner is a search box.
Also, by default, when you start typing an address into the location/address bar at the top, Firefox suggests links from history & bookmarks. So you should be able to find it just there too. Click [[Awesome Bar - Find your bookmarks, history and tabs when you type in the address bar|here]] to know more.

I still have my iPod Nano 3rd generation, but my old computer crashed and I did not have itunes backed up, so I lost my library. Is there a way to get the songs from my old ipod to new computer library and then on to the new ipod?

Save all the photos from your Droid into a folder on your computer.
Connect your device to your computer. On iTunes left Pane, select iPhone under 'Devices'; then on the right Pane, select PHOTO tab. Make sure Sync Photo box is checked, and "from" box selected the folder that has Droid's photos. Then click the SYNC or APPLY button on the lower right window.

TS3716 I have an iPod nano (3rd generation). I've recently dowloaded iCloud. So now when I open iTunes the window is entirely different. And I don't have the previous menu options. I have downloaded audiobooks for years. Is it not supported by iOS5?

I have an ipod touch 3rd generation 8 gb, is there any way besides jailbreaking that i can get ios 4.3.?

I have an IPod Touch 3rd generation 8 gb, is there any way besides jailbreaking that I can get IOS 4.3.?

You do not have a 3rd gen 8Gb iPod Touch. There is no such thing - really, truely, double true, extra double protected true. {lllaass, back me up here}
Jailbreaking cannot be discussed on Apple forums., except to point you to the following article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3743 which will let you know why Apple strongly cautions against "jailbreaking".
You could sell your current iPod and buy a new one, which will be able to use iOS 5.
GM: gross mismanagement
I suppoose jailbreaking would be a GM!

HT4972 I have an iPod touch 3rd generation with IOS 4.2.1 and the newest version of iTunes. However, when I press "check for updates" it says that IOS 4.2.1 is the current version. How do I update?

I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.
Identifying iPod models
iPod touch (3rd generation)

Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem

I have an iPod touch, 3rd generation, and when I push the button to put it to sleep, my iPod takes a screen shot. It's really annoying. Is this a result from updating to iOS 4.3.3? Also, my screen is EXTREMELY sensitive-breathe on it and it turns on.

- Are you also having problems with the Home button? Maybe it is sticking a little since to take a screen shot you depress the Home and Power/Sleep buttons at the same time.
- I have not seen your problem discussed here before.
- I would first try resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next would be to restore the iPod via iTunes. First from backup and if problem persists, restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

Why can I not upgrade my iTouch 3rd Generation to iOS 5? I can upgrade my other one...

Why can I not upgrade my iTouch 3rd Generation to iOS 5? I can upgrade my other one...

Are you sure it's a 3rd Gen? If it's an 8GB or 16GB model then it's a 2nd Gen and 4.2.1 is the latest
What happens when you try?
