  • I changed my appleID, it worked fine but now I can not restore icloud backup in a new ipad (old appleid does not work and it is grey colored so I'm unable to change it)

    Some months ago I changed my email address and so my appleID. Everything worked fine, but last week my ipad broke and when I tried to restore my icloud backup in my new ipad it does not work: it asks me for the password of the OLD appleID (it doesnt work); and in icloud configuration page the field for appleid is colored grey so I can not change it.
    any clues? thank you in advance

    My suggestion is to change apple id back. I know it is not something you want to hear, but there are suppose to be ways around it and usually they work, but not right now. I suspect that is consequences of Apple getting their servers ready for ios7. Normally in your situation - you should be able to get all your stuff back, but apps, and then you can sync those or download from icloud. But lately (last week) it does not seem to work normal way.

  • I am unable to restore from iCloud backup because the new phone has iOS 8.1.2 and the old phone has iOS 8.2? Any help.

    I Have just bought an iPhone 6 and want to restore my iPhone 4s via iCloud backup to the new iPhone 6. The setup of the iPhone 6 halted because according to the new phone it has iOS 8.1.2 whereas the backups were stored using iOS 8.2 following my updating of the iPhone 4S recently. How do I jump through this hoop? How do I update the new phone to iOS 8.2 without serring it up first? Anyone, please help?

    Update the new phone to the same version that has been used to create the backup. In your case, the new device has to run 8.2 to be able to use the backup made with the other device.
    Setting it back to factory settings will install the newest version and after that you can use the backup made under 8.2

  • Downloading the SD file onto the new iPad air , when you have purchased the HD file.

    Hi,
    i have a new iPad air, I have purchased movies on iTunes as a HD version which I know I also get the SD version too! I had the iPad 1 and when I download films onto that, it gives me the option to either download the SD file or the HD file. on the new iPad it doesn't give me this option.
    Does anyone know how to download the the SD file instead of the HD, as we all know SD uses less memory. I have the 128g IPad.
    Thanks
    Paul

    When syncing your iPad, on the summary screen, there is a check box for the option to prefer the SD version of videos. Click that and the SD version will be synced.

  • Unable to restore time machine backup onto a new hard drive

    I recently bought a new hard drive for my mid-2010 white Macbook. I have kept this computer regularly backed up with time machine, but just to be sure I made sure I hooked up my external hard drive prior to changing the hard drive and made sure it was fully backed up. I checked my exceptions and saw that my system files and applications were listed, so I removed them from the exceptions list and let it back up again (it only backed up a further 60MB though, so that made me a little uneasy).
    I successfully switched over the hard drive and then plugged in my external hard drive so I could do a restore from Time Machine. My external hard drive has 3 partitions: 2 time machine backups for each of my computers, and one partition for storing files that also has an old copy of 10.6 on it.
    When I booted the computer, I held option, then selected Macbook TM. When it came to the window with 4 options, including disk utility and restore from time machine backup, I selected restore from Time Machine backup. When I did so it said "No OS X Backups Were Found." Why wouldn't it have backups listed if I have been consistently backing it up? How else do I do a full system backup?
    Also, how can I be sure that I'm restoring this backup onto the new hard drive? It didn't prompt me to select that drive at any point, and I want to make sure I'm not overwriting the middle partition on the backup drive (or anything else).

    Please visit Pondini's Time Machine FAQ for help with all things Time Machine.
    You will find that Mountain Lion stores an invisible copy of the Recovery HD. You can boot from your Time Machine backup drive by restarting with OPTION boot:
    Boot Using OPTION key:
      1. Restart the computer.
      2. Immediately after the chime press and hold down the "OPTION" key.
      3. Release the key when the boot manager appears.
      4. Select the disk icon for your Time Machine backup drive.
      5. Click on the arrow button below the icon.
    Your computer should boot into the Recovery HD. You will be presented with a main window of options. Select the option to restore from a Time Machine backup then click on the Continue button.

  • I am unable to download adobe elements 10 onto my MAC

    I am unable to download adobe elements 10 onto my MAC

    Hi Dave,
    I'm sorry you are having issues. Maybe this will help.
    Installation rules will let you install the software on two computers. If you have only installed it once, you should be able to install it on the other computer. If you have already installed the software twice and you don't have access to your previous computer or you upgraded your computer's hardware, replace a hard drive, upgraded your operating system, or reformatted your drive before deactivating your software, you can ask Adobe Support to help you deactivate the software from the machine. Just have your serial number or Adobe ID ready, and then contact support. Then you can install the software from the link below and enter your serial number to re-activate the software.

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • HT204266 unable to download any app or itunes content to ipad 2? HELP!!!

    unable to download any app or itunes content to ipad 2? HELP!!!

    I assume that this started after the update and you were able to download before. Start with some basic troubleshooting.
    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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    Power cycle your router, unplug it from power for about 30 seconds and then plug it back in again.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to download again.

    CS2 will not run on modern Macs. It is not designed to.
    CS2 was written for old PowerPC based Macs running OS X 10.2.8 through 10.3.8.
    It will not install on new Intel based Macs running OS X 10.9.x (Mavericks).

    I got a new iphone 6.  When I restore my phone from my icloud backup my most recent photos and messages not restored from icloud backup.  How do I get the most recent backup onto my new phone?

    Hello, Anita.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    I understand that you are wanting to restore your new iPhone 6 from an iPhone 5 backup.  This sounds like the iOS version of your old iPhone 5 may be newer than what was installed on your iPhone 6.  Try going through the steps in the article below.  
    iOS: Unable to restore from backup of a newer device
    I would also check to see the backup dates in iTunes and if the  backup is located on iCloud instead of iTunes.  
    Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes
    Cheers, 
    Jason H.  

  • HT201272 I cant download my purchased music onto my new iPhone 5. I bought almost all my music through iTunes over my phone but it wont let me download "ALL"--I have to go in individually to each album.

    I cant download my purchased music onto my new iPhone 5. I bought almost all my music through iTunes over my phone but it wont let me download "ALL"--I have to go in individually to each album. Can anyone help me figure out how to do a single "ALL" music download?
    I even tried synching from mt computer backup but it wont do it.

    You can only sync everything with your one syncing computer/iTunes library. Yu can:
    - Make this your syncing computer by:
    Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive: Apple Support Communities
    - Use the manual method to copy music and videos from any computer/iTunes library to the iPod. See the manual method included here:

  • I'm trying to download my Master CS6 onto a new hard drive because my old one crashed and I keep getting a message saying " Cannot write the file" or "I don't have permission to access the requested resource." ? What does this mean?

    Yes- it is a Mac. I went through adobes system requirements and re- downloaded supportive software. The notice seems to happen near the end of the down load with the messages above. I'll look into your suggestion. Thank you- appreciated.

  • I've downloaded pages 4.1 onto my new macmini (10.7.2) but the File menu does not include the save as function .  Any suggestions?

    I've just downloaded Pages 4.1 onto my new macmini (OS X 10.7.2 Lion) but the "Save as ..." function does not appear in the File menu (although "Save ..." does appear).  I'm wasting lots of time saving copies and then changing the names via the desktop.  Any suggestions?  I've already checked updates and can't see any that look suitable.
    Whoops!  No sooner had I posted this as a question when a whole host of queries popped up asking the same Q.  So now I know there is NO Save as in Pages 4.1, but a similar route using Duplicate.  I'm off to experiment.
    Plus ça change!!!

  • I can't find where to download elements premier 11 onto my new computer?

    I can't find where to download elements premier 11 onto my new computer?

    JODY
    Let us put together some information which will be helpful to getting the customized answer for you that will work.
    1. Have you purchased Premiere Elements 11 and/or 12 and do you have a purchased serial number for either?
    What computer operating systems are involved - old and new?
    2. If you purchased an online download of either product from Adobe, you should be able to download these files from
    Adobe http://www.adobe.com in the My Orders section there once you Sign In. You can also get help from Adobe via Adobe Chat by clicking on the following link, and, when it opens, clicking on the statement "Still need help? Contact us." to discuss Orders, Refunds, and Exchanges.
    Contact Customer Care
    If you did not purchase any of the installation files from Adobe, then this should not help.
    3. If you have purchased serial number but cannot file installation files or disc anywhere, you can download and install installation files for Premiere Elements 9, 10, 11, and 12 from the following web site. They are tryouts into which you can insert your purchased serial number and then make that your working program.
    This is the link to the Premiere Elements 11 tryouts
    Photoshop Elements 11 Direct Download Links: Free Trials, Premiere | ProDesignTools
    This is the link to the Premiere Elements 12 tryouts
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 Direct Download Links, Premiere too | ProDesignTools
    With either of them, you have to read the Note: Very Important Instructions and follow them carefully otherwise you will end up with an Access Denied message.
    Please let us know if any of the above helped. If not, please supply more details for us to help you.
    Thank you.
