HT203167 Someone has been using my credit card to download games. this has happened before when I had a different credit card on my itunes account. the apple store on that previous time would not give me the ip address where the downloads ended up.

Someone I entrusted my computer to for repairs decided to keep it. all my personal information was on the computer. the peron has been using my credit card information o make ourchases from the apple store. If I do not have a credit card on the account on my iphone, I am unable to updatw it or my ipad. After persuading the apple store people to delete the last credit card info, I had to put aother credit card on the iphone to be able to update the software and thevapps. now that card is being used by the person o download war games on the new card. I cannot find any of his downloaded games on any of my devices. I am close to giving up my iphone and ipad. the last time i called the apple store, theynwould not give me the IP address of the omputer the games were downloaded to. they only gave me the name of my ipad. anyone could name thir ipad according to the name on mynipad. I have found the Apple store less than friendly about security matters like this. What can I do to maintain my acount and not continue to be ripped off by the thieving interloper? if i change my user name nd password, i will forever lose legitimate purchases. Please advise me.

We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
Is the credit card registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, it was issued by a bank in your country and you are currently in that country ? If it is then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes support and see if they know why it's being declined : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management
Each time that you add or change your card details then a temporary store holding charge may be applied to check that the card details are correct and valid (though that is usually $1 or the approximate local equivalent) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3702
Did your daughter owe any amounts to iTunes ? Does anything show on your purchase history : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2727 ? If they are proper charges which you don't think that you should have then you can contact iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

Hi,
Strikes -
Go into compositionReady and have 3 variables you will be able to set them like this
strike1 = 0;
strike2 = 0;
strike3 = 0;
So on the wrong item click have
if(strike1 == 0) {
PLAY STRIKE1 ANIMATION
strike1 = 1;
else if(strike2 == 0) {
PLAY STRIKE2 ANIMATION
strike2 = 1;
else if(strike3 == 0) {
PLAY STRIKE2 ANIMATION
strike3 = 1;
So this will make it so when the wrong item is clicked each strike will be played in order.
Random Scrolling -
You should look into the Math.Random function to make things random in edge.
This is an example of the Random function. It will generate a random number up to 100.
var random = Math.floor (Math.random () * 100);
Lose Screen Score -
So we can create another variable in compositionReady for the lose score.
score = 0;
Now when the user gains a point to add to the score you could do this code on the click
score++;
which would add 1 to the score, However you can add however much you like to the score doing "score + 2" and so on.
To edit a text with the score at the end which I'm assuming you will want to do you will use .html
so $("Text").html("You score is " + score);
I hope this helps!

The WiFi on my iPhone 4s will not turn on. I need to back up to iCloud in order to replace the phone. A worker at the Apple Store said that if I connected my phone to the computer, then I could back up to iCloud but it doesn't work!

Last weekend I went to the Apple store to replace my phone because the WiFi on my phone is nonfunctional. I need to back up to iCloud before I can replace my phone because I have information on there that needs to be saved. The worker at the Apple store said that, since I cannot connect to WiFi, I needed to plug my phone into my computer in order to back up. I went into iTunes and turned iCloud on, but my phone still will not back up to iCloud. So, I need to know exactly how to back up my iPhone to iCloud without WiFi?

Unfortunately, you can't restore an iCloud backup without using wifi so that isn't an option.

Try unsyncing the sone and then resyncing. That works sometimes. Sometimes restoring from backup works. Other times nothing seems to work.. Yuo are not alone since iOS5 and iTunes 10.5/6.

Hello Elliiee,
The steps detailed below can help stabilize your iPhone.
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
Contact Apple Support.

Vendors, I noticed the price of the IPAD 2 was identical at Walmart,Best Buy, Frys, and the Apple store the sales person at The Apple Store told me the main benefit to buying the IPAD 2 from the Apple Store is that they do all the initial set up of the device is this not the case for all the vendors of the IPAD2? Also as I was inside the local Apple Store they were conducting some sort of tutorial on the use of the IPAD 2( at least 40 persons in attendance) is this free?

There are no vendors on this site - just other users helping each other solve issues ..... but to answer your questions.....
Those instructional workshops are free to attend. This is copied from the information website at one of the Apple Stores in Pittsburgh, PA
Take a workshop. On the house.
Learn something new by taking a free workshop at an Apple Retail Store. Our workshops are taught by people passionate and knowledgeable about Apple products and eager to share their knowledge with you. Sign up in advance or drop in. You’ll have a great time, learn new skills, and pick up loads of tips.
If the price is the same everywhere that you have looked - I would suggest purchasing wherever you feel most comfortable. I think you might be answering your own question though when you ask if the workshops are free. You are not going to get the type of instruction - if you get any at all - from a reseller like you will get at an Apple Store. The Apple Store will set the device up for you if you want them to do so.

When I set up my Macs, there were 2 sign names - 1 I created and the other was Ghost. The Apple store says that takes up 50% of my hard drive. Can I kill Ghost? Do I just delete it?

Thanks for your help!

Hello Blisshous,
It sounds like you have a user account named Ghost, that you want to delete all content from and remove from the computer. This article will help you do that named:
OS X Lion: Delete a user account
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3867
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, and then click Users & Groups or click Parental Controls.
Click the lock icon to unlock it, and then type an administrator name and password.
Select the user account you want to delete, and then click Delete below the account list.
Do one of the following:
Select “Save the home folder in a disk image” to save the folder as a disk image in /Users/Deleted Users/.
Select “Don’t change the home folder” to leave the home folder in /Users/.
Select “Delete the home folder” to remove it from the computer. If you want to prevent programs that read raw data from retrieving any files, select “Erase home folder securely.”
Click OK.
Keep in mind, if you remove the user and delete the data, without Time Machine you will not be able to restore any data from it in the future.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Sterling

My husband needs a new power cord for his Mac Pro. I went to the apple store and the clerk gave me a power adapter by mistake. He has a conference call before the store opens and I can't get him another power cord. Is there a way to power up his computer?

You posted in the MacBookPro forum. Is this a Mac Pro or MacBook Pro? If it's the latter, it has a battery.

The Apple Store recommended wiping and reloading software on my Mac Mini yesterday. In the process I lost iMovie, iPhoto and Garage Band. How can I get them back?

I took my Mac Mini to the Apple store yesterday since I was having trouble with difficult to read text. They recommended wiping the drive and reloading it. I lost iMovie, iPhoto and Garage band in the process. How can I get them back. The App store says they are already installed.

What I missed was that I needed to select "Purchased" rather than using the normal listing of items. Once I went to the purchased list I could easily download the various software.
Thank you all for your help.

My contract is not up and my phone is not working right. I went to the apple store an they said it would be $150 for a replacement iphone 4 which i have. I want the 5s would it be the original price of $200 or would it still be $150?

I need help!!

Posting the same question will not change the facts
On more time
You can exchange your iPhone 4 for an out of warranty exchange unit which will be exactly like the iPhone 4 you already have cost $149
That is it , no alternatives .END OF
You can decide to use the $149 dollars instead towards a new iPhone5S .That is a completely different transaction and is not linked in any way to the iPhone 4 exchange
You may also be able to trade in your faulty iPhone 4 in the purchase process again NO LINK to the exchange process discuss with Apple Store

My MacBook Pro 15 inch that I bought back in 2012 at the apple store keeps restarting Every time I open it. And when it's in the restarting mode it just turns off and restarts again it doesn't even get to the login part where you choose accounts.

I can actually hold a key and it will take me to the logins and when I login I have to hold the key the whole time I'm on it or else it restarts. What do I do to fix this problem? Please help

Hi Thebestest1v1er,
Based on your description of being able to Safe Boot (holding down the shift key) but not boot normally, it sounds like your startup/restart issue may be related to one of the things that Safe Boot disables. You can find more information about them here:
OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1564
It may also be related to a disk or file system issue (as that is also something checked during Safe Boot). You may find these articles helpful as well:

HT4061 I attached my iPad to my laptop to sync to my iTunes account. It told me that there was a software upgrade. After attempting to upgrade the software I received a message that the upgrade was not successful. Now the iPad is locked.

After failing to update the Op system my iPad is now frozen on a screen showing a USB connector pointing to iTunes. It is connected and nothing is happening. I have not been able to reset or restart the iPad3.

Its solved I just restored it to that point
