Starts up like the first time you buy a new Mac, but after filling in all that info again, you should have access to the computer and the other Users & files will still be there... give the new User a different name than an existing one.

    Can not activate Face Time or iMessage just get can not sign in please

    Please help.

    Hello Nikki
    I have won the battle.
    right let me tell you what  i did and in what order.
    First i restored my Ipad 2 to original factory settings, backing up content so i lost nothig.
    then i reset my router, this caused me a few probs as i am not that computer savvy and i needed netgear to help me re configure my router.
    after a long conversation with apple we came to the conclusion that the passwords were causing the problem.
    i spent time explaining to them that when i originally set up my itunes account and then my mobile me account there were no stipulations regarding numbers and capitals in passwords, hence when i got my IPAD my passwords were not "appropriate" even though they were working fine.
    I decided to reset ALL my passwords associated with I tunes, mobile me and addle ID to the correct requirements which are; at least 8 figures with at least 1 number and a capital.
    I then reset my DNS code on my IPAD to 8.8.8.8
    (go to WIFI settings, touch arrow to right of your network and change DNS code)
    and voila, it worked.
    I would try and sort all passwords out to correct requirements ( one number, one capital the rest can be lower case). then change your DNS code, then try face time.
    if that doesnt work then it may be a case of restoring factory settings on your IPad and resetting the router.
    I appreciate how frustrating this is as they are not cheap.
    loads of luck and do let me know how you get on.
    best wishes

    i can not access face time or icloud on my phone they atr there but can not click on to use them????

    These ones are tricky. But the following instructions are worth a try.
    First do a complete uninstall of iTunes and related components (but don't reinstall just yet), as per the following document:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    a. Launch regedit (Start >> Search Programs and Files >> type Regedit and open the regedit that comes up.)
    b. Access the following Location: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData \S-1-5-18\Components
    c. Perform the following actions
    i. Right Click on Components Folder
    ii. Select Permissions
    iii. Select Full Control and Read Permissions options
    iv. Select Advanced Button
    v. Select Owner Tab
    vi. Select to Change Owner to the Administrators
    vii. Check the option “Replace owner on subcontainers and objects”
    viii. Select OK when prompted that it may not change all.
    ix. Select Apply
    x. Select Apply again
    xi. Exit the Registry Editor
    Now try reinstalling iTunes again. Does it go in properly this time?

    Since this is a user-to-user support forum, there isn't much we can do other than refer you to the following instructions and as noted in the instructions, then to Apple Support if you can't reset as shown in the instructions: If you forgot the answers to your Apple ID security questions

  • Can not reset my apple password what ever I do

    No matter what I do my old password comes up when I turn my phone on. When I try to change it for my new password it keeps asking me for my old password questions which I can not remember  .  It even says I have my date of birth wrong plus when I ask to reset my old password by email I do not get the message sent to me . So can anyone help me please.....THANKS

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare (or 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.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

  • HT1430 Following these instructions I still can not reset the iPod.

    It still reads iPod disabled, connect to iTunes.  I have connected to iTunes and no luck.  Please help

    Placing your device into recovery (DFU) mode:
    Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
       1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
           other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
       2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
           until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
                  * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                    Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                    release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
      3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
           device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
           let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
           charge, and then start with step 2 again.
      4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
           When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
      5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
      6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
    Additional Information:
    If you have a problem getting into recovery mode then try: RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode.
    Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

  • Can not reset router.. password problems

    We have a DSL connection at home and just decided to put our Linksys router back up. I have the BEFW11s4 verson4 and when I go to my ip address and set it up my longin screen pops up and messes me up. I have tried to reset it back to factory settings and when I do that and the screen pops back up I type admin for user and password and I get the red 401 screen. I also tried to change the password on the router and that still didnt work. Then I put the CD in and I got to the last part which is make a password for the router and I get an error screen that says, Rouuter must be reset, hold the reset button for ten seconds and then contact Linksys. Whats going on its driving me nuts.. thanks for your help

    While the router is on, hold the reset button for 30 seconds.
    I believe holding for 10 seconds simply places the router in Bridged mode. I'm not certain about that concerning Linksys, but other manufacturers have the 10 for bridged mode rule.

  • Ever since updating to iOs7, I can not use face time or iMessage on my ipad2.

    I am connected to wifi, I can get on itunes, the app store, google, use all apps, recieve and send email.  But when I try to log in to iMessage or Facetime with my apple ID I get this message in a pop up box " iMessage Activation Could not sign in.  Please check your network connection and try again."  I  have tried numerous times over the last week.  I have tried every suggestion I can find.  (Switching to airplane mode, shutting down the ipad, restoring it, etc, etc) Please help!!

    to activate imessage and facetime a hidden sms is sent to an apple server in the UK at a number starting with +44.  IF you do not have the ability to send SMS over cellular network where you now are then you will not be able to activate imessage or facetime

  • TS2446 I just got my Ipad and I can not download apps.  I get a message saying my Apple ID has been disabled.  I have reset my password, I can access itunes and icloud but still can not download apps.  Can someone please tell me how to get my ID activated

    I just got my Ipad and I can not download apps.  I get a message saying my Apple ID has been disabled.  I have reset my password, I can access itunes and icloud but still can not download apps.  Can someone please tell me how to get my ID activated?  TY

    Depending on why it's been disabled you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
    Or you might need to contact Apple : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
    If it then works on your computer's iTunes but not your phone/iPad then try logging out of your account on the phone/iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on it

  • Can't reset my time capsule using reset button and I don't have the password to get into reset it.

    I can't reset my time capsule b/c the reset button broke off when my time capsule fell off my shelf. I can't remember the password to the disk or time capsule to do a manual reset and I can't access the time capsule. Any suggestions around this?
    Thanks.

    Bob's suggestion is the best, as the old passwords should be stored on that computer.
    If you need to do it .. the hard way.. just open the TC.
    You need a heat gun (hair dryer on hottest setting works fine).. to heat the rubber mat up to very hot.. I usually take 5min or more just heating it, evenly as possible. Lift on one corner and keep heating whilst peeling off the rubber. I use a pair of leather garden gloves as it needs to be so hot you cannot hold it for long.
    Really hot the rubber easily peels off with all the glue on the rubber.
    Now undo the 10 small philips head screws and carefully lift up the aluminium base plate. There is a fan plugged into the board so don't pull. You can disconnect the plug carefully and lift it completely off.
    You can then press the reset switch with a small screwdriver or the like.. careful not to short anything if you use metal.
    The plastic lever should still be rolling around inside the TC.. when I look carefully at the plastic, the lever is inserted later.. not part of the one moulding.. there are two plastic stakes, which are heated and bent down like a rivet to hold the lever in place. You may be able to relocated the lever onto the plastic stakes with some glue.. use a good 5min epoxy rather than instant glue.. although on ABS plastic the instant glue works very well. Use the glue under and on top but a tiny amount, otherwise you will simply glue the lever to the body and it will never work again. You might be able to make it stay.. just be very gentle if you ever need to press it again.
    You can try a more permanent repair.
    Plastic flexing as hinges is not an engineering solution .. but you can get a scrap of metal, thin brass would be ideal... drill a hole in one end and use a small dia screw.. I would tap it and run a screw from the inside, using a short screw so only the end of the screw is visible. Coat the inside with silastic so it cannot short anything. Depends on your handyman type skills I guess.
    Strange that it would break.. Must have hit hard!!
