HT204053 Our macs were set up with an incorrect Apple ID. Is there any way to change the Apple ID associated with these macs?

Our macs were set up with an incorrect Apple ID. Is there any way to change the Apple ID associated with these macs? This causes increased frustration during the updating process. After maverick we cannot edit the id being used anymore.

If you can prove ownership to the Macs, call Apple Care and request the Account Security Team.

  • HT4436 is there a way to change the apple ID on an Icloud account? I used to share everything with my daughter but she's old enough we need to separate the accounts.. I would like to "give" the ICloud account to her, because all of her games are on it.

    Is there a way to change the apple ID on an Icloud account? I would like to "give" an ICloud account to my daughter. We used to share one, but she's getting older I would like to split our accounts. She has her own Apple ID but since all her games are on this ICloud account, I would like to give it to her and start my own.

    You can migrate your device and a copy of the iCloud data to a new account.  To do this, start by saving any photo stream photos you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow, then tapping Save to Camera Roll.  If you are syncing notes with iCloud, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; your daughter's device won't be effected by this), choose Keep on My iPad and provide the password when prompted.  Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload the data.
    Once you are on separate accounts you can each go to icloud.com and delete the other person's data from your account.
    The existing iCloud email account cannot be moved to your new account so you will need to give your contacts your new email address if you are giving the account to your daughter.

    Hi,
    I had my iphone stolen a few weeks ago which had quite a lot of music on that I had downloaded from itunes via my phone but had not synced with itunes on my computer.
    Is there any way to access the music now or is it lost? Thanks x

    By any chance, did you have the Find My iPhone app installed prior to it being stolen?

    Hopefully you had your iTunes purchases backed up to an external source such as an external drive or CD's?

  • We had our MAC book Pro stolen and we registered it with Apple. Is there any way to recover the serial number for police reports if the receipt does not have the serial number on it? Thx

    We had our Mac Book Pro stolen and have not been able to recover the serial number from our Best Buy receipt. We did register it with Apple during the set-up and downloaded music on it thru ITunes.  Any chance we can recover the serial number from somewhere?  Any details would be helpful.  Thank you!

    You can try going here, using the same AppleID you used on the machine:

  • Is there any way to use the Korg Kaossilator Pro with Garageband 6.0.5?

    I'm getting pretty decent at working around with the newest version of Garageband. I've gotten my Akai MPK Mini (usb/midi keyboard) to work by adjusting a few preferences here and there, but for the last week I have been trying and trying to get my Korg Kaossilator Pro to hook up MIDI with Garageband. I understand if the program/software isn't as advanced as Logic or Ableton (be getting those soon!) If anybody could help me it would be MUCH appreciated
         P.S. if anybody is having troubles with exporting the AIFF/WAV/MP3 audio files I could give you a bit of help. I have figured out how to correctly export the audio loops and sounds that I have made from my Kaossilator Pro into Garageband! It is quite simple actually and is ALOT easier than you would think. Following the tempo/pitch for your song w/ these WAV/AIFF files is really easy too! I have made almost 4 songs now just using samples and loops from my Kaossilator Pro. I just would like to know if anybody has found out how to use it MIDI w/ Garageband? It would REALLY help me out Thanks!

    yeeeeah thats what i've been figuring out for the last 12 hours haha. kinda've a pain but hey it works out. u can still throw some pretty cool effects and what not. Even with MIDI cables running from my kaoss pro into my mac doesn't work. i can transfer the loops I make on my kaoss pro to the editor on my comp, then transfer those files to GB then go from there. It ***** there isn't a way to hook it in and sync it w/ GB so you can hit record then start jamming on the kaoss pro. Thanks for the response though!

  • Is there any way to override the Toshiba Power Management with the Windows Power Management???

    Have an older P25-S607 and would prefer more control over the power management.....that I can get with Windows....any suggestions?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Thanks for the obvious reminder   That was a duh moment.  It's easy to forget the simple sometimes when you get involved in troubleshooting when it's not something you do on a daily basis that's for sure.  The Toshiba controls have been fine for the life of the Toshiba laptops we have had, but I always felt they were a little limited on options IMHO. 
    In this instance I needed to utilize some of the added XP options as this laptop actually had the hinge 'sprung' a little and didn't "shut down" or hibernate when you closed the lid.....changed hubby's "normal procedure" for utilizing this "shop laptop" so he didn't overheat and fry the hard drive which is what I believe happened originally to the system that had been working fine until the hard drive was fried.  Changed it out, reloaded everything for him only to have the system need to be reformatted again within a week as windows took over.  As I was investigating causes I realized the malfunction.  Not sure of the how or why, but now have automated shut down backups if he forgets to shut down when he shuts the lid and walks away.   So far so good

  • HT204053 How do I change the phone number associated with my Apple ID and messages on iPad

    How do I change the phone number associated with my Apple ID and messages on iPad

    If you mean for iMessage and FaceTime, the number is based on the iPhone number you set up iMessage and FaceTime on.  If that number is no correct, sign out of these services on both your iPhone and iPad by tapping the ID (in Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime) and selecting sign out.  Then sign in first on your iPhone and confirm that the phone number is correct.  Then sign in on your iPad.

  • HT204053 How can I change the iCloud id associated with my iPad?

    How can I change the iCloud ID associated with my iPad?

    To change the ID for:
    iMessage, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID sign out, sign back in using the other ID.
    FaceTime, do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.
    iTunes, do this in Settings>iTunes & App Store.
    iCloud, start by saving your photo stream photos to your camera roll by opening your My Photo Stream album, tap Select, tap all the photos you want to save, tap the share icon (box with upward pointing arrow), then tap Save to Camera Roll. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and provide the password when prompted, then sign back in with the ID you want to use.  This will delete the account and iCloud data from your phone but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing to a new account, your data will be synced back to your phone when you sign back in.  However, if you are setting up a new account with a new ID, when you delete the account be sure to choose Keep on My iPad, then choose Merge when you sign into the new account to upload your data.

  • I am trying to change the email address associated with my existing account to free up my university email address for use in obtaining Creative Cloud.

    I am trying to change the email address associated with my existing account to free up my university email address for use in obtaining Creative Cloud.  Every time I go to the account settings of my existing account (which currently uses my university email, as I set it up years ago and had no idea it'd eventually cause problems), I enter a different email to use for that account but I continuously receive an error message saying "account changes cannot be saved."  It makes me think that it's because the email isn't verified (funny, it actually is verified since it has been the alternate email on the old account for years), but when I click the "send verification email" nothing happens (that is, no email is sent to that other email address).
    Anyway, my university is now requiring that faculty create new accounts using our university email addresses in order to register/use Creative Cloud.  Am I able to delete my old account, or can anyone help me actually change the email address associated with my old account without getting a "changes can't be saved" error?

  • Is there any way to activate the keep identity setting when using a Transfer SQL Server Object Task?

    Is there any way to add the "Keep Identity" option to the tables selected for transfer in a Transfer SQL Server Object Task?  It seems that would be very useful, yet I can't find an easily available setting for it.  I would prefer to
    accomplish this within the Transfer SQL Server Object Task since it can copy any new fields added to the source tables, as opposed to having to rebuild a custom Data Flow Task any time a table structure is altered.  I thought setting "CopyPrimaryKeys"
    to True would do the trick, but I found that only ensures that the column settings are transferred; when the transfer happens, the destination id column is populated based on the specified seed and increment value, not what's actually in the source table. 
    I'd like to point out that replication isn't really an option here. This is a package that runs a few times a day to keep some data on our website up to date with data in our protected corporate environment.

    IIRW there is FastLoadKeepIdentity specifies
    whether to keep an identity in OLEDB destination
