HT4436 I have loaded iCloud on my iPad and I cannot purchase anythingI from iTunes. It keeps asking me for security questions. What am I doing wrong?

I have loaded iCloud on my iPad and I can't purchase anything new through iTunes. The security questions keep coming up. I answer them and then I get a blank square and nothing. Please help.

iTunes has made it a required thing, that even though you are using itunes gift cards you still need to have your billing information filled out.

If it's saying that your answer is wrong, then from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5665 :
If you have three security questions and a rescue email address, sign in to My Apple ID and select the “Password and Security” tab to send an email to your rescue email address to reset your security questions and answers.
If you have one security question and you know your Apple ID password, sign in to My Apple ID and select the “Password and Security” tab to reset your security question.
If you have one security question, but don't remember your Apple ID password, contact Apple Support for assistance. Learn more about creating a temporary support PIN to help Apple confirm your identity when you contact Apple Support.
If you can’t reset them via the above instructions (you won't be able to add a rescue email address until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset (these are user-to-user forums).
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You need to turn the services you want to sync (calendars, contacts etc) on on both devices from settings > iCloud.

Right click 'computer' in your PC/laptop (whichever). Click 'Manage', then 'Services and Applications', then 'Services', you should see 'Apple Mobile Device' running or stopped. If you couldn't find 'Apple Mobile Device', it means you haven't download iTunes into your PC/laptop (whichever).

HT204053 Ugh. How do I get iCloud on my iPhone? I have been using my iPhone for about a year and I have an iCloud account but it is useless since nothing syncs to nothing else. Obviously I don't know what I am doing.

Have you logged into your iCloud yet on your phone, in settings > iCloud.

I have just bought a MacBook Air and i cannot play videos from the internet as it asks for a flash player to be installed i try to download Adobe flash player and it will not allow me to do so?

Ziatron is correct that Flash does not work on an iPad, but it does work on a Mac. See Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.160.

On windows 8 and itunes I have importing problems the DVD is only reading the music cd from 1.5x to 4.0x for 95% of the time, it does hit speeds of 30x for the other 5% of the time. Is it a driver issue with the DVD or is it a windows 8 issue?

No. You have no alternative but to plug it into a computer running iTunes and restore it.

HT5312 why can't I sign into my account and add a rescue email so I will be able to redo my security questions? I have been unable to buy anything from Itunes because it's asks me for security questions that I don't remember what I put

1. Because if you could, someone who breaks into your account could do it as well.
2. You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

I am trying to print redplum coupons and I can't, help. I have updated java, adobe flash, and made sure my printer was set on default. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I have contacted redplum and no one will help.

I am trying to print redplum coupons and I can't, help. I have updated java, adobe flash, and made sure my printer was set on default. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I have contacted redplum and no one will help.

No Apple response??? Redplum/Valassis will not help either. I searched, using the cups error message and though it is Unbuntu, same error so maybe useful...only problem: details would not display unless I join Unbuntu forum. What a pain to do anything with my Mac or find any help. I honestly regret buying this buggy OS.
Anyway, here is what I found, FYI:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=483415
As the old saying goes: when in doubt, consult the manual. The problem appears to be that I added the printer using the KDE Add Printer Wizard. It was automatically given a "socket" URI instead of an "lpd" one. When I:
- altered the printer settings at http://localhost:631 (the CUPS admin page) as instructed in the manual for the printer, and
- copied the PPD file into a second place on the hard drive (as instructed on ubunutuforums, see the link above)
..everything started working.
It's still slower than windows, but I can live with that
Probably a simple fix. Change the socket I.P. to match the printer I.P. like this:
socket://192.168.1.86:9100. The thing I'm concerned with using socket:// is that AFAIK the printer I.P. must not change. In my case I'm able to assign a static I.P. address to the printer but it's something to consider.
I found that the only thing I needed to do was change socket to lpd (and remove :9100 off the end as well). See Solving Ubuntu printer broken pipe problem (DocuPrint C525A) . BTW thanks for steering me in the right direction - very grateful.
Solving Ubuntu printer “broken pipe” problem (DocuPrint C525A)
Posted on November 25, 2008
Are you having a problem with your printer under the latest versions of Ubuntu (perhaps it worked under an older version)? Are you able to print short documents, but not longer, or more graphics-intensive, documents? (e.g. the unfortunate people at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=625493). Do they sit there as Processing for ages and then switch to Held? If you have the same problem I had the solution I tried may work for you too. Firstly, check your cups error log:
sudo gedit /var/log/cups/error_log
If you see anything like the following, the solution may be simple:
[Job 201] Unable to write print data: Broken pipe
PID 13359 (/usr/lib/cups/backend/socket) stopped with status 1!
System > Administration > Printing and right click on your printer, selecting Properties. Settings > Device URI
If you see something like socket://your_printer_ip_address:9100 just change socket to lpd and remove the :9100 off the end. Then click on apply.
Apparently lpd is a more modern protocol which works with most printers whereas socket is more raw (and potentially faster but riskier in a network situation). Somewhere along the line, the default Ubuntu/Gnome setup for networked printers shifted from lpd to socket. Some primitive printers will have benefited whereas a larger number of more modern printers will have suffered.
Please correct me if I am wrong (which is highly possible) but the underlying problem could be that socket may make the printer wait a long time for a large file to be processed ready for printing. Some printers, such as the Fuji Xerox DocuPrint C525A, may drop the socket if things take too long to start coming through.
Changing timeout settings might work but lpd is better than socket so it is the preferred solution in any case.
If this works for you, please leave a comment to let others know (ideally with a description of the printer and Ubuntu version). Printer may be relevant if it doesn’t support the direct stream protocol properly. NB I may take a while to let your comment through because of the volume of spam. Sorry about that.
Finally, thanks to sphilli8 for the steer in the right direction at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6245626.

I have itunes match and i see all my must but half the time it doesn't play, what am i doing wrong, it's very frustrating

i pay for itunes match, downloaded all my cd's and i see it on my phone but half the songs don't play, what am i doing wrong? i didn't think you had to actually download them onto the phone, this was the idea of not using the storage, right?

All iTunes Match music is downloaded to iOS devices in order to play them. They don't stream like services like Pandora do, whch only stream the music to your device without storing it. With iTunes Match a song must be stored on the device in order to be played. But here's where it gets a bit confusing.
If you tap the cloud with the downward facing arrow next to a song on your phone it will download and stored on your phone and this will allow you to later delete it by swiping over the song title and tapping Delete. In fact, you can later locate all the songs you have downloaded in this way by going to Settings>iTunes & App Store and turn off Music under Show All. The music app will then only display the songs previously downloaded to your phone, making it easier to delete them to free up space if you no longer wish to store them on your phone. Go back and turn Music back on under Show All in order to see your entire iTunes Match library again.
However, you can still play a song by simply tapping the title (without tapping the download icon). When you do this, the song plays, but is still downloaded and stored on your phone as you listen to it. The disadvantage of this is that these songs are stored in cache memory and cannot be manually deleted by swiping over the song title. According to Apple, this cache memory is automatically cleared over time as the memory on your phone starts to fill up (by deleting the oldest and least played songs from cache memory). If you want, you can still force this memory to be cleared by restoring your phone.
The main takeaway from all of this is that iTunes Match, while making your entire library available to play without storing the music on it ahead of time, still stores songs as you play them, or as you manually download them prior to playing them.
If your songs are not playing when you tap them while away from your wifi, make sure you have Use Cellular Data turned on in Settings>iTunes & App Store. This allows them to be downloaded and played using your cellular data plan while away from wifi.

Apps are permanently tied to the ID used to purchase them.
Go to https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/ and re-set th password for the old one.
Then, log into the app store with it and update the apps purchased with that ID.
