    Hi, I'm trying to get some apps but when i try to get in to apple store it says cant connect but I have an iPhone 5c!? even if I have full wifi it still says that it won't connect. Also I saw i had a missed FaceTime call and for some reason it needed my Apple ID password but I'm always in there and it never needs my password. So I type my password...... It doesn't work i do it again it doesn't work! So I reset my password, I type it... It doesn't work so then with all these problems I decided to ask you guys!
    PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!
    iPhone 5c

    Hi XxRottenApplexX,
    Try using the steps in the following article to help you troubleshoot this issue:
    Can't connect to the iTunes Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1368
    Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
    Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
    Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
    Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
    Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
    Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
    Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
    Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
    Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
    If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.
    Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,
    Braden

  • Apple password not working in iCloud since I updates my email address. Still lists my old email but doesn't accept old password. How do I access?

    Apple password not working in iCloud since I updates my email address. Still lists my old email but doesn't accept old password. How do I access the cloud?

    To change the iCloud ID ("email") you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  When you do this you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted.  If this should happen, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • IMac restored from external hard drive-password wont work

    I just had my iMac wiped clean and migrated my information from an external hard drive however after migrating everything to the clean machine, the password wont work and when I attempt to reset it via the apple id, it wont go through even though I have checked and rechecked that I am using the correct information.
    help!

    First, make sure caps lock is not on.
    Another reason why your password might not be recognized is that the keyboard layout (input source) has been switched without your realizing it. At the login screen, you can cycle through the available layouts by pressing the key combination  command-space or command-option-space. See this support article.
    Otherwise*, boot into Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. In the window that opens, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window opens. Close the Terminal window to get it out of the way.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.
    You should now be able to log in with the new password, but your Keychain will be reset (empty.) If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it.
    *Note: If you've activated FileVault, this procedure doesn't apply. Follow instead these instructions.

  • My apple id password only works on my mac but not on my iPhone or iPad

    my apple id password only works on my mac but not on my iPhone or iPad what do i do?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)

  • Why is my apple ID password not working on ipad2 after updating to iOS6?

    Why is my apple ID password not working after upgrading to iOS6?

    Who knows?
    Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Tap your ID and sign out. Reboot your iPad.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Go back to the settings and sign back in again and see of it works now.
    If it doesn't work, post back with some information that might help us help you. Describe what you are doing in some detail and it might let us better understand why this is happening.

  • Hello, I've installed Lion but now it says I can't use the Cloud as I need the Apple ID Password to use Back to My Mac. I've obtained several new Apple ID passwords which work ok on my phone but doesn't seem to be the password it's looking for?

    It's probably looking for the Apple ID & Password you used to purchase Lion, or ML as the case may be.
    Thse are the Mountain Lion forums, is that what you meant?

  • Help Me..iTunes has allowed password set for volume, but password wont work

    I just received my iPod Shuffle yesterday. iTunes 7, allowed me to set a password for my iPod Shuffle (for volume control), but the password wont work, yikes.... It's the same password I always use. The volume is so low, I can barely hear it. I uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it, but my iPod still remembered its password, I tried the Restore under settings in iTunes... no luck.
    The error message I get when I try to restore is (same as when I try to access the iTunes Store, which I cannot access either):
    ITunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. The network connection timed out.
    Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connections active, then try again.
    I have cable access to the internet, and that's just fine. I've tried to use the command line to run ipconfig / (I forgot what it said to type after the slash), but I did this twice and it was successful.
    I checked my firewall for exceptions, and iTunes is one, so that should be alright. Maybe it's the McAfee Security Center
    I would really appreciate any help that you might have to offer.
    Thanks!

    Here was the problem:
    I found out that I had two firewalls up! I would think that wouldn't be possible. Both Windows and Symantec firewalls. Once my friend took down the Windows one, she was able to restore the ipod shuffle to factory settings and go to the ITunes Store. I'm too chicken to apply a password on it again.
    Before my friend helped me, I called the 1-800 help line (in India, 9 hours ahead of us, and I think it was after mid-night-but I could not tell I woke her up, I felt bad) and she had me try a few things and I forgot to get her help on putting everything back. But I did sort of write down the changes and was able to retrace and return it to what the PC was.
    I just wanted to share this in case anyone else does this.

  • HT204053 Apple ID password problem

    My Apple ID password stopped working when I updated to iOS7. Can anyone tell me why? I have created a new ID but it keeps asking me for the password that relates to the old one when I try to get or update existing apps??

  • HT1578 Correct password wont work on a dmg file

    I created an encrypted disk image and saved my files in it. Once created, the pw was working fine when checked, but today the password wont work, it was saved in keychain too so no way it can be wrong, but I renamed and moved the file a couple of times to other folders, is that the problem?

    I renamed and moved the file a couple of times to other folders, is that the problem?
    They can be renamed in Finder and changing the location of it should not matter either except if you moved it to a folder with different access permissions that prevent it from being read.
    Anyway recreate a new encrypted disk image and choose a name you are happy with, move your files into it, and keep it in a location where permissions belong to you and that will be the the most direct solution. 

  • I finally upgraded my phone and now I am locked out because my password wont work what do i do?!?!?

    Thank you so much
    JP

    Restore, if iTunes will let you.  Everything except the password will be restored.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  Be forewarned that it takes a long time.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • HT2452 I have an iMac with iCloud. For some strange reason, yesterday, my apple id password quit working on my iCloud account. I went through the iforgot  process of resetting it. The reset worked on mu iPhone, and iPad but won't work on iMac

    HELP! I cannot sign in with new password on Imac but the password works on Ipad and iphone through icloud.... Just started eysterday after the status problem listed on the i cloud page.

    I am having the same problem, starting today (12/15). Here's a more complete description of my problem.
    About two weeks ago, I changed the email address associated with my Apple ID. The old address had been taken over by spammers, so it had to go. I followed the procedure in Manage My Apple ID, and everything seemed fine until today.
    I am running Yosemite, 10.10.1 on an elderly Macbook Pro (2009)
    I got a message saying I couldn't access iCloud and needed to log in in System Preferences. I tried logging in with my then correct password. After 3 tries I was locked out and told to use iForgot to reset my password. I used my recovery key and reset my password "successfully". My new password allows me to log into iCloud.com, iTunes on my Mac and on my iPhone 6, I am able to use my iCloud keychain on both devices, and I can log into Manage My Apple ID with the new password. I was also able to use the new password to log into iCloud on my iPhone. Access to iCloud drive from Pages appears to be working on my iPhone, but not on my Mac. I was also able to sign into the App Store on the Mac.
    However, in System Preferences, I cannot log into iCloud and I cannot log into my iCloud mail account (both appear to use the same login). I get a message saying I have been blocked for security reasons and I need to reset my password. This is exactly the state I was in when I went and changed my password so it appears that the change didn't get communicated to system preferences. Without iCloud access, my apps that use iCloud for storage and/or syncing with iPhone apps are of limited usefulness. This may be key to the problem or at least a clue: System Preferences still thinks my Apple ID uses the old email address not the one it was changed to. The only way I know to change the address is through Manage My Apple ID
    I tried rebooting by doing a full shutdown and restart, but it did not help. I also tried cursing at my Macbook but that did not help either.
    I can use iCloud.com for mail and Documents since it recognizes my password. But this is at best a temporary work around. I'm off to check other sources for help. I'll report back when I know more.

  • I am unable to get my apple ID or password to work in iCloud, iMessage, or face time. I used

    I cannot get my apple I'd or password to work on the iPad2. But it works on this site. I've changed my password several times and reset the network, and deleted my accounts on the iPad.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You might try the following steps:
    Restart the device by holding down the on/off button until the power down slider appears.
    Try entering your password in another location (i.e. when you are using a different wifi network)
    Reset all settings (settings > general > reset), this resets some of your settings to factory default. It’s not a complete removal of settings. It removes all of your preferences for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Do No Disturb, Notifications, General, Sounds, Brightness & Wallpaper and Privacy. It does not remove any of your data.
    If this doesn’t help your best option may be to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
