HT1918 My 6 year old is buying games on my IPad and I want to stop him.

If I select "none" on my payment info will it disable the little guy from making purchases?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can set up your device to require a password for purchase from the app store either immediately or after 15 minutes of being previously used. (Settings > General > Restrictions > Allowed Content > Require Password)
More often than not this stops unwanted purchases by others, but does not stop In-App purchases, to disable In-App purchases, go to Settings > General > Restrictions > Allowed Content > In-App Purchases > Off.

My grandson shares my Ipad and I want to give him a monthly allowance on I tunes to buy his own Apps/games etc. If I set up a separate account for him on I Tunes, can he then access this from my Ipad to buy his own stuff ? If so, how do I do it ?

No, that is not possible. An iPad can only be linked to one iTunes account at a time. For this you should have to reinstall the iPad every time you allow him and reinstall when you get it back. Sorry, but the iPad was designed as a personal device from the ground up and it does not support any kind of multiple users/ multiple accounts.
You can setup your iPad with Parental controls to prevent him from doing any app or in-app purchases and to hide any adult-only content.

HT1212 My nine year old put a passcode on my ipad and forgot the code. What can I do?

Connect it to the computer you sync with and Restore it in iTunes from your backup.

5 year old erased my games :(

So, my bad. My 5 year old was playing with my 4G Itouch and has deleted some of my games. I didn't notice right away, so it probably happened a few syncs ago. The app still shows up in my itunes library, but there is no option that I can find to put it back on my ipod. I have an HP PC running windows 7. Is there a way to do this? Thanks for any info...

U can either redownload them (free of charge, it will say "you've already bought this, are you sure you want to download this again?") or when your ipod is connected to itunes you can drag the app to the ipod from ur library! Hope this helps!

My 2 year old has deleted my 'apps store' icon and I cannot figure out how to get it back? Doesn't seem to be available in the on-line apps store, ironically enough

He dragged the icon out of the dock at the bottom and disappeared. That icon is merely a "shortcut" that opens the application when you click on it.
You still have the app. Open your applications folder and look for the App Store app icon. Click and hold down on the App Store icon and drag the icon down into the dock to replace it. That puts the shortcut back into the dock.

That depends on what you define as "good quality".
Honestly I'm not able to find that model on panasonic's website to find out if it is 720p or 1080p, I suspect it's only 720p.

My three year old was playing with her sisters IPOD and somehow figured out how to lock it. No one knows the unlock code can you soehow reset the device

My three year old was playing with her sisters IPOD and somehow figured out how to lock it. Now it is locked and noone knows the unlock code, Is there a way to master reset/wipe the unit?

Gretchen,
What iPod model does she own? If it's a Nano, simply connect it to iTunes and restore it.
If it's an iPod touch, you will need to connect to iTunes in Recovery Mode and restore it using the instructions in this Apple support document.

Please see the bold. If you're out of icloud storage, then you won't be able to backup to icloud unless you purchase more storage, but yet you said you backup to icloud.
If you really did backup to icloud no data would be loss - sounds to me that it didn't backup since you had no more free icloud storage space.

I want to buy the Iphone from UK and I want to use it also in Greece ???

Hello
I want to buy the Iphone from UK and I want to use it also in Greece, with my Greek number. It is possible or it is locked ?
Thank you?

Just bought one, works fine, even entered the hardware serial number to find out what coverage is available for it and its covered until September 2008, and thinking to apply for AppleCare Protection Plan. I don't claim that everything on ebay is fine, there are a lot of fakes and such a puchase is for experiensed ebay users ONLY.
But it can be unlocked and until they set it free, there will be thousants sold like mine. I wouldn't wait for some months to buy it from the well known phone resailer in Greece, who could give me no support at all, with a closed contract with a provider for I don't know how many years and pay double as much as it really costs.

I downloaded and bought a movie from iTunes on my iPad and now want the same movie on my MacBook Pro but its not offering me to download it, it giving me the options of buying it which I already did. How I get the movie onto my MacBook?

You can connect the iPad to your Mac's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases, that should copy it over to the Movies part of your library.
Depending upon what country that you are in, and whether the film studio allows it, you might also be able to re-download it on your Mac via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page.

I had an Apple account on my old Lap Top to which my iPad and iPhone were syncd. I now have a new Lap Top and when I tried to access my apple ID on it I was asked to sign up for a new account. I can't use any of them.

I need help. I had an apple account on my old Lap Top to which my iPad and iPhone were synced ? I recently changed my lap top. My problem is the new lap top won't accept my apple I D it asked me to sing up for a new one which I did. After doing this I tried to sync my iPad and phone to the new lap top which I was unable to do as they didn't recognise my new ID. HELP!!!!!! 

I am puzzled by this. The laptop doesn't need the Apple ID - but iTunes does. I could be missing something but ....
Why would you not be able to use your existing Apple ID and iTunes account on a new laptop? If you authorized the computer - you should be able to use your existing account - unless you already had 5 computers authorized with the existing ID - and that was why iTunes would not accept the ID. However, I'm sure that you would have received a popup message from iTunes telling you that you had reached the limit.
I just received a new MBP and my daughter did as well. My entire family shares an Apple ID and we had no issues at all with my Apple ID and iTunes on our new computers and I did not have to sign up for a new account. Did you even try the old ID?
