When i enter my apple ID password to enable my imessage acount it always comes up as an error has occurred
Hi,
AS well as Eric's two links you may have Upgraded to Mountain Lion and now past OS X 10.8.2
At this point the iMessages login requires that it can access the Mac's Serial number that should be stored on the Logic/Mother board.
In some cases of Repair or Refurbishment it is missing.
Use the Apple icon Menu to left > About this Mac.
Click twice on the line that tells you the current OS level.
It will change to the Build Number (Another counting method for the OS version) and then to the Serial Number.
If it is missing you will need to visit an Apple Store or an Apple Authorised Service Provider (AASP)

Hi, I forgot my icloud password and my ipodtouch keeps asking me for my icloud password. When I enter my apple ID password, it will not accept it. I have been trying to find where I can reset my icloud password with no success. Please can someone help?
You reset the iClould password the same way you reset the Apple ID for the email address/account
How do I change or recover a forgotten Apple ID Password?
If you've forgotten your Apple ID Password or want to change it, go to My Apple ID and follow the instructions. SeeChanging your Apple ID password if you'd like more information. -

When i take a photo or a video using the camera on my ipod touch, the computer (windows xp) shuts down and a blue screen comes up saying "an error has occured" and a heap of oth stuff in white. It doesn't wipe the memory or anything off the ipod. Whenever i sync my ipod without photos or videos it works fine. It also doesn't mind me taking photos off itunes to put on the ipod. I have had a look around and a couple of people say reinstall itunes, but i don't know if i will lose all my songs and apps. Any suggestions of help?
Removing all Apple related software and reinstalling iTunes should bring all needed drivers back: Removing iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
Also check for new driver updates for Windows, especially if you have a webcam installed.
iTunes Store purchases or songs imported from CDs are saved in your My Music folder by default and are not deleted by removing iTunes. While it is highly unlikely that you will lose any contents of your iTunes Library when following these steps, it is always a good idea to ensure that your iTunes library is backed up. If you're unsure how to backup, see iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive.

Updated iTunes to 11.0.3 and now when I try to use Airport Express I get a message in iTunes that states, "an unknown error has occured (-15000.) I gave the Airport a hard re-start, so I don't think that is the issue. Using Windows 7 Ultimate
Looks like I fixed it., thanks to another post I read. I went into my Norton Security. Under Settings. Chose Firewall. Program rules. changed the itunes setting from "auto" to "allow" This also fixed my error (-3212) which would not allow me to connect to the iTunes store.

So i recently restored my Iphone and when i went to download my music everything was fine untill i got to one of my alblums and it says Itunes cannot copy "the alblum" to my Iphone because an unknown error has occurred.I do not know what to do please help Thanks.
Hi..
Try "resetting" the iPhone.
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
You may need to click Purchased (new) right side of the iTunes store in order to re download the album then sync to your iPhone. -
I am unable to use iTunes credit for game credit purchase. A box comes up with " an error has occurred Please try later" any advice greatly appreciate. Thanks

Thanks for the welcome and the reply!
I looked at KB25882 and my settings are good, so that didn't help.
I had this problem over a year ago, and someone at RIM found a bit set that shouldn't have been set and fixed it (that is my terminology for what happened).
I am really looking for a way to contact RIM directly. I hate going through the mill with my carrier to get it escalated to RIM for resolution...... <sigh>
Hi mgpainter
Most easiest way to Contact RIM is through your Carrier but as you don't prefer that than there is another way of support called Incident Based Support but just want to inform you that its not free.If you want have a try BlackBerry Incident Based Support .
Good Luck

When trying to use the App Store, I get a message "could not sign in, an unknown error has occurred, any suggestions what is wrong? I reset our Internet and turned off the iPad.
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 again. -

To enable iCloud on your Windows PC,
first set up iCloud on your other (Apple) devices,
then install the iCloud Control Panel for Windows...
