provide a rescue email . How can I set a rescue email? NOTE: I forgot my security question.thanks

You won't be able to add a rescue email address until you can answer 2 of your questions, you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

I tried to reintall os x mavericks but now is aking for apple id and pass w but dont have one what do i do?

Hello I really need help, Im totally stuck!!
I tried to reintall os x mavericks by following this steps:
Erase the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
      left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.)Click on
      the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
lect Reinstall osx mavericks and click on the Install button
but now is asking for an apple id and pass word which i dont have. I know that the computer is a mid 2012 and according to apple rep the original software on computer was at least a 10.8 mountain lion but don't know how to retrieve since im not the original purchaser. What can i do to fix this problem? pls help!!

You will have to do the following which should install a copy of the original software pre-installed on the computer when it was new. You may then upgrade under your Apple ID.
Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Using Internet Recovery
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
Partition and Format the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your external hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
            if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

You need to have a different Apple ID for each of the other devices.

Help - I have an apple id account, where is my iPod and iPad registered, but also the iPod of my daughter. How can I make an account for my daughter and keep all the apps she has on her iPod?

Sorry, content bought with one Apple ID cannot be merged or transferred to another Apple ID.

Hi user 1724, before icloud, we had the same issue....
so yes, the solution was to each log into the mac separately.
i kept the main itunes library and apple id, and my son made his own itunes library (which linked to the main itunes/apple id) - so we were able to maintain separate contacts lists.
but then w/ the cloud i guess we assumed the cloud would know we each have different contact lists on diff. phones, but it seems the cloud just lumped it all together -

HT1386 we are using same laptop with my wife for our 2 iphones and when sincronizing, she's getting my apps and is requested for my apple id and password when getting a new app on her device. How can i fix that issue?

Each phone needs to set its own sync settings on the various tabs in iTunes. On the Apps tab, for example, uncheck the apps that you don't want on the phone being synced. This article may also be of interest: http://gigaom.com/apple/itunes-101-multiple-devices-one-itunes-account/.
You can change the Apple ID used for purchasing on her phone by going to Settings>Store>Apple ID, tap the ID shown, sign out, sign back in using her Apple ID. However, be aware that if she has any apps on her phone purchased with your Apple ID she will still be prompted to enter the password associated with this ID for all future updates of these apps. This is because apps are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them, regardless of the ID in Settings>Store.

I brought apple lightining cable from authorised shop , but my i phone is not getting charged with that how can i know its orginal or not there is no printing on that cable and the wire is little harder than which i was using before it came along pho

I brought apple lightining cable from authorised shop , but my i phone is not getting charged with that how can i know its orginal or not there is no printing on that cable and the wire is little harder than which i was using before it came along with phone.., Please let me know is the cable is orginel or not ..

the phone says it is not charging even though it actually is. Check and see if that's the case. A very underhanded trick by Apple so they can charge 10 times what the cable is worth. They do not win admirers by that proprietary trickery.

Hi I need to change itunes country from UK to USA I have US payment details but my billing address is in UK. How can I set this up?

The iTunes Store in a country is intended only for use by that country's residents, and only while they are in the country. To use the iTunes Store in a country you need a credit card (or other card type if acceptable in a country) issued in that country, billed to an address in that country, and also be physically present in that country when using the store. You are also restricted to waiting 90 days between country changes.
E.g., "The iTunes Service is available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance." - http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/us/terms.html#SERVICE

I sign in iclouds by apple id and pass word .the error say it is apple ud and not icloud how to sign in for iclouds

I have downloaded apple store and iclouds when I try to ope iclouds it askes for user id an pass word . I enter my aple ID and pass word the message appears that this is your apple account and not icloud . will you tell me how to create icloud account

As I already said, you have to create an iCloud account on an iOS device or Mac. If you don't have one, you can't create and iCloud account. Apple states this on the page you downloaded the iCloud control panel from (iCloud Control Panel 3.1 for Windows), where it says:
"Note: To create an iCloud account you need an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later, or a Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later."

I can't find a preference to keep mail on the server as it's deleted on individual devices. We have 4 Mac devices and a PC running W8 with the iCloud control panel. How can we keepthe mail on the server as it is deleted from the individual devices?

How do I keep mail on the server as it is deleted on individaul devices? We have 4 Apple devices and a W8 laptop. We sort and read mail on all of them, but have found that deleting mail on one deletes it on all of them.

Yahoo and Gmail both support POP if you wish.
All modern email systems are Imap (because it supports multiple and mobile devices)
I do not recommend POP under any circumstances, it can not be synchronized so unless you do not use Mobile devices at all (iPhones etc) it is useless.
Yahoo users (search this site) have endless problems and Gmail is highly non-standard. Expect a learning curve for that one.
Are you short of server space, why do you need to do this rather retrograde step?

TS2771 my ipod touch is frozen with the apple logo on the screen, won't turn off, have already reset it and it still sits the same...logo on screen. Can anyone help me out?

My IPOD TOUCH is frozen with the Apple logo sitting there on the screen. I have already reset the ipod because it was freezing up so I reset it, but now it won't shut off or got o main screen it just sits with the logo on it. I can't turn it off. The screen will also flash as though it will turn off then goes back to the logo screen. Does anyone know what the heck is going on with my IPOD? It's reall frustrating me...ALOT!!!

- Try:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful, let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try again
- If still not successful, time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I have a macbook air and it was logged in on my dads apple id. i also have an apple id and i wanted to transfer that one to my computer. How do i do it?

I have a macbook air and it was logged on my dads apple id at first, then i got an apple id and i want to have my computer logged in on my computer. What am i supposed to do.

Change your old Apple ID using this link:
https://appleid.apple.com/
Click the blue Manage your Apple ID button.
Its password is unrelated to the password you use for the email associated with it.
If you don't remember the Apple ID password, click the Reset your password link.
I already have a new apply id that is set on my phone and ipad. I just want to switch it to that one...
You cannot change your Apple ID to another one that is already in use - in this case, the one you created for your iPnone and iPad. Decide which Apple ID you want to keep. If you need to change it, change it - don't create a new one.
