i forgot my password when i have to back up my phone, what do i do?

You need to restore from backup. See the following:
iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software
Note tha the backup dos not contain the apps themselves, music, synced photos and videoa and some other things.
You can redownload some iTunes purchases by:

Try DFU mode instead.

Maybe a data recovery company can help. Otherwise you will have to erase the iPod tn order to regain use of the iPod. You can also restore from your last backup. The Disbled is a good security feature.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Thunderbird keeps asking me whether I forgot an attachment when I have already attached a file.

How do I get it to stop asking if I forgot an attachment when I have already attached a file? I like the reminder when I do forget to attach a file, so I don't want to turn it off. I just want it to work properly.
It used to only asked me when I forgot to attach a file. As a side note (not sure if it's related), I didn't notice this error until I recently added a new account (email address).

Since last update (today) I get invalid password when trying to use back to my MAC, password works everywhere else

since last update (today) I get invalid Apple ID password when trying to use back to my MAC in Icloud app on my MAC, password works on all my other devices. GLITCH ?

Try going to the Apple ID page on your web browser
http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/
and try to either retrieve or reset your password
(obviously you had to be able to successfully log in to be able to post here)
I was finally able to log in through my system preferences after about three or four hours. I ran a disk utility to repair permissions and restarted and it seemed to work ok.

HT4623 I have an iPhone 4 that I just updated today to ios 6, now when I go to back up the phone to my PC, it says it can't because I don't have the latest version of iTunes. But i have iTunes 10. Please advise.

There is an updated version number 10.7.0.21 that is available if you go to the iTunes link here on Apple.com. It won't show up under Apple Software Update and if you check for updates via iTunes it likely won't show either.

It's the password for your outgoing mail in your Mail account. You need to set it up in your Preferences.

I keep getting a message that my voicemail is 90% full when I have deleted my voicemail messages. What do I do?

I keep getting a message that my voicemail is 90% full when I have deleted my voicemail messages. What do I do?

Depending on your carrier, deleting your voicemail messages may simply place them in a "deleted" area - much like a trash bin - that also needs to be emptied.
Check the voicemail area in your iPhone's Phone app. See if there is anything at all there - specifically something that says "Deleted". If so, inspect and empty it.

Hopefully you had it backed up on icloud on or your computer. Try doing a restore by putting your phone in recovery mode then restoring your back up.

And this is how iMessage works (as gdgmacguy tried to explain):
Messages lets you exchange text messages with other SMS/MMS devices using your cellular connection, and with other iOS devices using iMessage.
iMessage is an Apple service that lets you send unlimited messages over an active Wi-Fi (or cellular data*) connection to other iOS devices using iOS 5 or later or Macs using OS X Mountain Lion or later. With iMessage you can see when other people are typing and let them know when you've read their messages. iMessages are displayed on all your iOS devices logged in to the same account, so you can start a conversation on one of your devices, and continue it on another device. For security, iMessages are encrypted before they're sent
* Cellular data connectivity requires iPhone or iPad (Cellular Models).
If you are sending an iMessage to another iOS device that is registered to Messages, then it will send it as an iMessage unless iMessage is not available.

I want to put my sim card from my iPhone 4 into a family members iPhone 4s. We have both backed up our phones to our computers. I don't want his contacts listed on the phone while I use it, just mine. How do I remove them off the iPhone 4s.

I want to put my sim card from my iPhone 4 into my husbands iPhone 4s, which he is not using. We have both backed up our phones on to our own computers. I don't want his contacts left on the phone while I use it. How do I remove his info including music, photos etc from the iPhone 4s before I insert my own sim card.

You do realize that the SIM only contains account information for your wireless account.
Moving the SIM from phone to phone does not cause any of your iTunes content, contacts, email, etc to magically appear on the device.

Going to upgrade to Lion. First have to back up computer. What external hard drive should I buy to back up computer using "time machine". Have 320 gb hard drive.

Buy an external drive 320G or larger (much larger is preferable). I do not recommend you use TM for this, instead download a copy of Carbon Copy Cloner and make a clone of your drive. Once this is done you have 2 choices, you can download and install Lion on your internal drive just as you planned or download and install Lion to the external clone, the 2nd method allows you to test the Lion install before committing to it. If the clone with Lion is to your liking then just clone it back to the internal.
