HT201210 my iPhone won't let me change my email when I go to update my apps... please help!!!
I made the mistake of changing my email, however because it was an email that wasn't activated anymore I thought it would be in my best interest to do so. However with a new email came a new password ... and it seems that my phone can't accept the fact that I changed my email, and won't let me change it - so my password is Always wrong, when I know it's not. How do I change my email? I am about the restore my phone to factory settings... but I'm hoping that is a last resort... please help!
much appreciated!
Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History)
If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

IPhone won't let me remove default email
iPhone 4 won't let me remove the default email, nor can I add an email. I don't like having the email accessible ALL the time. What do I do???
It worked! .. I tried the restart by holding the home and power button but it didn't work for me. So I tried: Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings
And it worked.
Thanks!
P.S. whoever tries this, your contacts might go out of order, so go to Setting>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>scroll to Contacts>Sort Order or Display Order.... And don't worry, your pics, downloaded apps, and other data doesn't get erased. -
The selection tool won't let me resize objects. I have read different forums where they all say I just have to show bounding box, but not even this works. I have been using Illustrator for a long time and never had this problem before. Please help me fix this
kimoen,
In addition to what Larry said, the Adobe team are working on the Live Rectangle bug which is limited to the MAC versions starting with 10.7 and 10.8, but not 10.9 (Mavericks).
So a switch to Mavericks with a reinstallation might be the way to solve it here and now, if that is an option, in which case you should reinstall after upgrading the OS.
But you may get round it in a couple of ways while using your present OS.
In each case, it is possible to Expand the Live Rectangles to get normal old fashioned rectangles, or to Pathfinder>Unite, or to use the Scale Tool.
A more permanent way round that is to create normal old fashioned rectangles, after running the free script created by Pawel, see this thread with download link:

I changed my apple id because my email has changed. I've updated everything I can think of on my iPhone. I've logged out and back in and I still get a " your apple id has been disabled" message every time I try to update my apps. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I'm sure there's an easy solution but I've tried all the tutorials on apple.com and nothing works. Can anyone help?
When you say you have changed your Apple ID, how did you change it? Did you maintain your existing Apple ID via Manage your Apple ID and EDIT it to a new email address, or did you set up a brand new Apple ID?
Cheers,

The alternate email I had was ********** but the link for resetting the security questions made it **********, which ain't a real email address and I can't make it one either Halp...
<E-mails Edited by Host>We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple - I've asked the hosts to remove the email addresses from your post (it's not a good idea to post personal info on any public forum).
You won't be able to change your rescue email address (an alternate email address is different) until you can answer your questions, you will have to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset : Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security
When they've been reset you can then use the steps on this page to change your rescue email address for potential future use : Manage your Apple ID primary, rescue, alternate, and notification email addresses
Or, if it's available in your country, you could change to 2-step verification : Frequently asked questions about two-step verification for Apple ID -
can i talk to someone on the phone?
You can try contacting Apple here.

You do know tht if you created a new Apple ID - that is different than changing the Apple ID. Apps are always tied to the ID that was used to make the purchase. If the old ID is popping up, it seems like that ID is rid to the apps indicating that you created a new ID. Of course, I could be wrong or misunderstanding what you're saying as well.
If you go to Settings>iTunes & App Store, tap your old ID and sign out and then sign in with the new ID, that should be all that you need to do, if you changed the ID. If you created a new ID, that will not work. -
