  • Frequently I will be asked to sign in to my Apple account, but it is using an email I don't use with Apple. How can I get this to stop?

    I use an iPod4 Touch and am using IOS 6.1.6. Frequently I will be asked to sign in to my Apple account, but it is using an email I don't use with Apple. How can I get this to stop? This is happening repeatedly throughout the day. I don't have an Apple password for this email address, nor do I want one!

    Maybe an App that needs updating was purchased by that account?
    Could someone have installed an app not purchased with your account?
    Can you post a screen shot of the message?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can't unless (assuming you have the Apple TV 1) you remove the drive and connect it to a computer.

  • How can I stop the sharing on the iPhones that are in the same account because its sharing every thing even text messages

    How can I stop the sharing on the iPhones that are on my account because its sharing everything even text messages and its driving everybody crazy

    An icloud account is designed to be used by one user to keep his/her devices in sync. 
    If you have muitiple family members or friends using the same account as yours, then have them get their own Apple IDs and icloud accounts.
    If you mean you want to stop the sharing between all your devices, then on any one device, go to Settings>icloud and turn off the services you don't want that device to share/sync.  Or turn off icloud altogether if that's what you want.

    You are apparently both using the same Apple ID. Change her to a different Apple ID and this will stop.

  • HT204053 I just changed my apple ID, how can I make my icloud link up with my new ID?

    I just changed my apple ID, how can I make my icloud link up with my new ID?

    Did you simply change the primary email address of your existing AppleID at
    https://appleid.apple.com/
    Or, did you create a new AppleID.  If you created a new AppleID, then you cannot.  All you can do is use the iCloud with the old AppleID, or create a new iCloud account with the new AppleID.
    If you changed the primary email address of the exisitng AppleID, you may need to uninstall the iCloud account on the iPhone and reinstall it to get it to use the new email address and password (you won't loose anything, its just there a means of resetting the cached credentials associated with the iCloud account).

  • How can I stop iTunes from downloading my iPhone contents?

    Whenever I sync my iPhone, iTunes decides it needs to download everything that's on my iPhone.  How can I turn this off?  Luckily it is only music, not apps, but it's still annoying.  I have things like "sync only checked items" checked, and I don't have it automatically sync anything at all except podcasts.  It's just that whenever I download one of my albums from iTunes on my iPhone, it decides it needs it on the computer as well.  However, there is no reason for it to be on there, because I can just stream it from the cloud if I want to listen on my computer.
    I wouldn't sync at all, but I have no other way of getting Podcasts that require a password than to use iTunes (non-protected Podcasts can be had with the Podcasts app--so handy!).
    Thanks!

    What happened to Apple wanting people to be able to use an iPhone without having a computer at all? 
    I don't mind keeping a backup on my external hard drive, but I don't want iTunes to manage that anyway.  It always makes a mess of things.  And I definitely don't want it offloading stuff onto my main hard drive.  I just don't have the space on there for all the junk, which is why I have two external hard drives in the first place.

  • When using just Apple TV, how can I change the Genre of a movie?

    It's using iCloud and some of the movie genre's make no sense. For example, Elvira: Mistress of the Dark is listed as Horror, but Elvira's Haunted Hills is showing as Comedy.
    I do realize that Elvira Movies are generally listed as Comedy/Horror on IMDB, and that's fine. However I'd prefer to have these movies listed together properly when looking at movies by Genre.
    Additionally, The Lost Boys is listed as a Comedy where as it really should be a horror film. It's humor is secondary after all.
    Is there a way for me to change, individually, my movies genre? I don't care if it affects anyone else or not, it just doesn't help me to have them so disjointed. This is only using Apple TV and the movies that stream directly from iTunes central database, not anything located on my personal devices (I can change those just fine locally and they will show up correctly if I just look at it via a computer connection.

    I had the same bug in songs. It was directly related to tracks purchased in the iTunes store, they wouldn't allow any changes, it was all grayed out.
    Here's how I got around it. When I selected more than one item and any other item was not from the iTunes store it would allow me to Get Info and change everything with no problems.
    My suggestion is that if you need to, add in a movie from your hard drive (anything at all, it will be a dummy placeholder) that you can you use to select along with the one you need to change. Use command click to select non-contiguous files (even works in different genres), then get info (or command i) and then change your info. You can keep using the same dummy file for as long as you need to to fix the files with incorrect info, then delete it when done.
