HT5621 i recently had to change my apple id, however my old one still pops up and is the one that comes up undre my iCloud. how can i get rid of this?
a while back my email was hacked and i could no longer remember the password for my apple id because i had changed it so many times. i ended up making a new apple id and changed everything i could over to that one, however, my iCloud information is still set to my old id and i am unable to change that and i get random pop ups while using my phone that ask for the password to the old id. i called support and i was told they would charge me $120 to help me out with this, but i think it is outrageous to pay that amount when the malfunction is an issue with apple, not me. is there anyone to reset my iCloud configurations and id because that is truly all i think i need to do, other than find a way to delete the old ID from my phone completely.
Make sure you enter your new Id in settings/message, settings/facetime. ANy content that you downloaded with the old ID is forever linked to that old ID and if you have apps that were downloaded with the old ID and you want to update them you can only do that with the old ID. You could delete those apps and downlad them again ( and pay for them if they are not free apps)

My home page on Firefox only has been changed to somoto. I can't get rid of it. Have run scans for malware and viruses with more than one program and has eliminated any bad stuff. I cannot find the word somoto anywhere in my computer. My regular home page comes up in IE and Chrome.
This worked for me:
open add/remove programs and uninstall every toolbar you see that you don't know exactly what it is. The trojan or virus ... whatever it is can hide itself in another name. it happened to be "burn4free" toolbar when i downloaded burn4free a few days ago. I uninstalled it, restarted my computer upon prompt, and VOILA! no more annoying homepage. Like i said, it may be renamed so make sure to do some trial and error if you're not sure which one it is. GOOD LUCK!

Am getting an opaque strip about 1inch wide across bottom of home screen for the last two days. How can I clear this please?
Have you maybe removed all the apps from the dock? the dock is the strip that remains constant and shows the apps that you place there across all sprinboard pages.

Launchpad displaying unknown files and icons. how can i get rid of this?
Launchpad on my 3 week old 13inch macbook pro with OS Lion, is displaying all sorts of strange files and icons, some of which include: disk image mounter, dock, how can I get rid of this? ods agent, 50onPaletteServer, spotlight.service, SCIM, TCIM, makePDF, PressAndHold, MassStorageCamera- to name but a few! Theres over 100 of these icons and I have no idea what they are and where they came from? whilst using googlechrome yesterday my macbook suddenly slowed down and all running programmes froze. i eventually got all programmes closed and restarted twice and was still running slow. Today it is up to normal speed but I noticed how Launchpad is totally messed up and I dont know how to get rid or move any of these icons, that is if they are even meant to be there. Im not sure if it is relevant but I shall also add that the Hard Disk Icon was randomly being displayed on my desktop as well.
Any help on whats happening to my launchpad and what these icons are would be greatly appriciated.
Thanks, Beth.I will also add that none of these icons exist when I view my applications folder in Finder.

I have purchased an app and then I decided to delete it...but still apple is charging monthly...how can I get rid of this...
It sounds as if you purchased the app, but you also purchased some subscription within the app. You say "Apple is charging monthly", but it's probably the app writer that is charging you monthly for some subscription you purchased within the app. Contact the app vendor and tell them you want to stop the subscription.

I am unable to update devices with Apple Configurator because of this message - unable to send ClearPasscode command to device - I am running Configurator 1.5 and ios 7.1.1. I am unable to rename/number devices. How can I get rid of this error message.
I've just seen this message for the first time and it's showing on 10 devices.
What I really love about Apple Configurator is the copious amount of context driven help offered to you.
"Unable to send ClearPasscode command to device.
The device was disconnected.

I have both safari and chrome, because I'm used to chrome. The only extension I have is Google docs. I started getting green double underline hyperlinks to ads. How can I get rid of this without adding more junk to the computer? People suggest programs to do it, but how do I know they won't make it worse?
Is someone from Apple here and can answer?
Thanks!You may have installed the "VSearch" trojan. Remove it as follows.
Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. These instructions are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Step 1
From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot," "Trovi," or "Conduit" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
Reset the home page and default search engine in all the browsers, if it was changed.
Step 2
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "com.vsearch.agent.plist" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
Repeat with each of these lines:
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
/Library/Application Support/VSearch
/System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ConduitNPAPIPlugin.plugin
Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
The problem may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow.
You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the Internet criminal behind VSearch has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return. -
In Mail on iMac, successfully running OS X Lion, one mailbox on My Mac for "Recovered Messages (from AOL)" keeps showing 1 very large message (more than 20 Mb) that I just cannot seem to delete. Each time I go into my In Box, the "loading" symbol spins and the message appears in the "Recovered Messages" mailbox. How can I get rid of this recurrent file, please?
At the same time, I'm not receviving any new mails in my In Box, although, if I look at the same account on my MacBook Pro, I can indeed see the incoming mails (but on that machine I do not have the "recovery" problem).
The help of a clear-thinking Apple fan would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks.
From Ian in Paris, FranceIan
I worked it out.
Unhide your hidden files ( I used a widget from http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/developer/hiddenfiles.html)
Go to your HD.
Go to Users.
Go to your House (home)
there should be a hidden Library folder there (it will be transparent)
Go to Mail in this folder
The next folder ( for me ) is V2
Click on that and the next one will be a whole list of your mail servers, and one folder called Mailboxes
Click on that and there should be a folder called recovered messages (server) . mbox
Click on that there a random numbered/lettered folder -> data
In that data folder is a list of random numbered folders (i.e a folder called 2, one called 9 etc) and in EACH of these, another numbered folder, and then a folder called messages.
In the messages folder delete all of the ebmx (I think that's what they were from memory, sorry I forgot as I already deleted my trash after my golden moment).
This was GOLDEN for me. Reason being, when I went to delete my "recovered file" in mail, it would give me an error message " cannot delete 2500 files". I knew it was only 1 file so this was weird. Why 2500 files? Because if you click on the ebmx files like I did, hey presto, it turned out that they were ALL THE SAME MESSAGE = 2500 times. In each of those folders in the random numbers, in their related message folder.
Now remember - DONT delete the folder, make sure you have gone to the message folder, found all those pesky ebmx files and deleted THOSE, not the folder.
It worked for me. No restarting or anything. And recovered file. GONE.
Started receiving and syncing mail again. Woohoo.
Best wishes. -
I had music on my i tunes that I deleted. When I sync my iphone the music that was deleted shows up. How do I get rid of the music I do not want on my iphone?
Connect your I-phone to i-tunes , click on music . Not the one in the library but the music that opened up when you connected to i-tunes . Highlight the complete album or songs you want deleted, then right click and delete. Once you deleted the songs off you i-phone, then click the music from the library of your i-tunes. If that same music or album is also in there then repeat what you did in the i-phone to delete . This should take it all out.
good luck -
Since the MobileMe move I keep getting a pop-up screen that says "IDisk Conflict Resolver." I've done everything asked to "resolve" the problem but it keeps popping up every few minutes. How can I get rid of this?
Ok....so I have found a work around....if not a complete solution.
I'm not sure if deleting your music, uninstalling ITunes and reinstalling and adding your music back will actually affect it but I tried it again. Started from scratch.
I checked the box for "Manually manage music and videos"
Then I moved my music to phone via drag and drop, usually just boxing a row of albums at a time.
I went back into my Iphone and began the sync. The message popped up, "1 Item could not be synced" and the sync stopped. At that point, I just clicked sync again and it started back up again. It took a few go's but eventually I got all my music on my phone.
Ironically enough, the only songs that wouldn't sync were songs that I had actually purchased from Itunes....kinda odd -

That doesn't mean that you have updates.
Not sure how that app works, - normally means you have a notification for that app - what happen when you go into the app?
If you had update it would be a red number for the app store icon
