Reset my apple ID but old one still shows on screen. How can I update my apps now?
I reset my apple ID and password but old one still shows on screen. How can I update my apps now?
Hi jbrunner,
Did you create a new Apple ID, or simply update the old one?
If you simply updated the old one, then you need to go to Settings>iTunes & App Stores, click on the Apple ID, and sign out. Then sign back in with your new ID. Also, you want to go to Settings>iCloud and scroll down to the bottom and delete the iCloud account and sign back onto it with your new Apple ID as well.
If you created a new Apple ID, then there are other considerations. Post back if that is the case.
Cheers,

Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

Same Apple ID but different emails
First off, some info about my situation...I have a 4S, iPad 2 and MBP. I am the only one in my household that has iOS5 and can therefore use iCloud. When I was going through signup for iCloud, it asked for an existing Apple ID, so I used my iTunes account one (a Gmail address) and it then created a me.com email. So far, so good.
Like many, I then thought it'd much easier if I could just use the new me.com address for everything Apple related from now on, so I tried to change the email address associated with my Apple ID to the me.com address...but no joy, as I kept getting the you can't use a MobileMe account etc. message (even though I've never had one!). I then noticed that somehow (I guess when I used my existing Apple ID to join iCloud) my me.com address was already listed as an alternate email for my Apple ID.
I can log in to all things Apple related using either email address (although iTunes still shows my Gmail address even if I log in using the me.com address).
Apple support files recommend that most users use the same Apple ID for both iTunes and iCloud. Am I right in thinking that as the 2 email addresses are linked and are the same Apple ID that it won't make any difference what email I use for either (so if I wanted I could use the me.com for iCloud as my "Apple ID" and the Gmail for iTunes, or vice versa or even use one for both)?
Secondly, I'd like to use the new me.com address I created for FaceTime and iMessage...I have signed into FaceTime on OS X using the me.com address and on my 4S, under their respective setting I've also done this (plus I've put the me.com address for "You can be reached for video calls at"). Can people FaceTime etc. only if they know my me.com address or can they also use my Gmail address, seeing as they are the same Apple ID? I also realise that I can also add my Gmail address as an alternate for FaceTime and iMessages but do I need to, as again they are the same Apple ID?
Sorry for the long winded post but thought it best to give as much as info as possible and hope it's written clearly!You can have the same Apple Id, but you do need to have different email addresses for the "You can be Reached by Facetime At" section under settings.
If that is o.k, then make sure the email address you set for each device is the one being used to initiate the facetime call.
If your facetime call is initiated using the email from the Apple ID its effectively like calling yourself. -
I want to buy a new apple tv but it used hdmi cables and my house is only wired for analog. Is there any way I can use the apple tv on analog cables?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
It's do-able, but I don't think it's a great idea.
DVI
Some users with DVI have managed to get their TV's to work with DVI-HDMI cables. DVI carries no audio, so alternative connections need to be explored to enable audio. DVI doesn't necessarily support HDCP as well as other standards used by HDMI (which may or may not be an issue)
Analogue
There are hardware converters that will convert HDMI to various other types of output, however there are some issues with doing so that you should be aware of.
HDCP
HDCP compliant converters will not allow you to watch HDCP protected content such as that from the iTunes Store. Non compliant converters exist but we cannot discuss them under the Terms of Use for these communities.
Resolution and aspect ratio
I'm not aware of any converters that will scale the output from the Apple TV, any TV or projector which is used will need to be widescreen and support resolutions of 720p (Apple TV 2), 720p/1080p (Apple TV 3)

I want to use wifi for Apple TV, but it doesn't prompt for a password, so never connects. What am I missing? Can I only use it via a non-password-protected wifi connection?
Hi - you might want to post this question on the Apple TV area - you would probably get a quicker response - if you have a specific question relating to Apple routers then post back here

How can I transfer songs from my iTunes account to my daughter's, who has a different apple ID, but the same account information?
Purchases cannot be transferred between different Apple IDs.

I have multiple devices in my family. Each of us has an iPhone and an iPad. Is there a way for each of us to have our own Apple ID but one account so we can all get the same music, movies, books, etc. I can't see paying twice for something in the same family.
Welcome to the world of digital media. Your can't really transfer it. I don't know what the rules are about transferring to your spouse but I do know that in some cases when you die, your heirs cannot inherit your digital media. This is why there is still an advantage to buying the CD since the usage rights belong to whomever holds the physical media.
A possible workaround is to burn the songs to a music CD with yout account (tracks only without song titles) and then having your wife upload it as a regular music CD onto her account. It's been a while since i've done this so I'm not sure if it would work now.
Please note that I'm not advocating copyright and/or TOS violations. I'm only suggesting ways to copy music for your own personal use which has traditonally been permitted. I only did this because I wanted to convert iTunes songs to mp3 files so I could burn them onto a data CD for use in my car. It would make sense that since married couples are a joint entity, this would be personal use.
Also, I'm not a lawyer so don't take this as legal advice. -
Good day, tell me what to do iphone 4s bought preowned raised to 7.2 firmware but it requires aktivatsyi apple id but I do not know it because they do not buy a new one. and contact the seller lost in what to do now tell me?
There is no way around the activation lock. You apparently decided to use the phone with someone else's ID set up for an iCloud (and find my iPhone) account before updating. Since Find My iPhone was active, updating to iOS 7 has automatically turned on the activation lock. If you do not have the Apple ID and password that were previously used, then the phone is now useless. You can't activate it without that informaion.
Talk to whoever you bought the phone from if you can. If you can't, buy a new phone. -

When I try to log onto my Apple ID to use facetime, it will not work and tells me to check my connection. I have even tried creating a new apple ID but the same message appears. I do not understand why this is happening, could anyone help me resolve this issue it is very frusterating that I can not enable facetime or imessage.
I could do that, however when I select the icloud button (or whatever the heck it is) I am asked to enter the apple id and password. So if you are suppose to create another one for icloud you'd think it would give you the option at this point which would be logical.

It got A new router today and wanted to turn on apple tv but my remote app on iPad and iPhone will not recognize apple tv. Btw- I do not have apple tv remote.
It reboots it but unplugging can also rectify communication issues like this. A restore would be the next step.
