Did you install it yourself are somebody else for you?
If you installed them yourself, but do not remember which AppleID you used, try all AppleIDs you might have used in turn.
If somene else set up your Mac for you, ask the person to reinstall it. If you bought the mac second hand, the previous owner needs to contact Apple to transfer the iLife apps. If that is not possible, delete the apps that you cannot update and buy them using your AppleID.

I closed my iPad cover with a draft email open. When I reopened the cover, the cancel and send buttons are grey and all I can do is edit the email. The email app seems frozen. What do I do?
Try closing the Mail app completely and see if it works properly when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work (or if you can't get to the homescreen) then do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. -
how do i sync it with the compter without deleting all data?
The first thing you can do is transfer your iTunes purchases from your iPod Touch to your PC. To do this, choose File -> Transfer Purchases in iTunes. You should authorize your new PC before doing this by clicking the Store drop down menu and selecting Authorize this Computer. Then enter in your Apple ID/iTunes Store account credentials.
For all other content that was not purchased from the iTunes store, see this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different software available to assist you with this task.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2452022?start=0&tstart=0
Finally, right->click on your iPod Touch under the Devices section in iTunes, and choose Backup. Then after erasing and syncing your iPod, restore from that back up. Or better yet, copy a backup from your old PC to your new one if at all possible. Here is more information on backing up and restoring your iPod . Doing so will restore all of your App data.

Today while driving home from vacation i purchased and downloaded the new Nichleback CD, when i got home, i plugged my phone into my computer to update everything and it pulled up a message saying something like "this computer has recognized an iPhone that is in memory update, you will need to restore the phone" or something similar to that, it had a picture of the power cord plugging into iTunes on the screen and i couldn't get rid of it, so i had to plug it in and restore everything, when it was done i noticed that not only did i loose the new CD that i had just purchased today but i lost all of the music that i've purchased since the last update. How can i restore this music without purchasing it all again?
Media should be included with the backup of the computer that all users should be creating on a regular basis as part of basic computer/data maintenance.
In the event that you do not have a backup (stop being lazy.... keep backups of YOUR data and other important files)
If you are in the US and running iTunes 10.3 or later, it is possible to redownload music via iCloud from purchased history.
If you are not in the US or for some reason cannot run iTunes 10.3 or later, contact iTunes customer support and ask very nicely for the opportunity to redownload the content. They are not required to provide this opportunity.
It is also possible to transfer content from an iDevice that was purchased via iTunes. On the new computer, sign into the iTunes account, authorize the computer, connect the device then select File > Transfer Purchases.
The simplest method of all is to transfer or copy the media (and other important files) from the old computer or the backup of the old computer. Typing "move itunes library" into the search bar here or into google will reveal step by step instructions on how to do this. -
I'm all Mac across the board: iPhone 5, Macbook Pro, Apple TV etc. I can't get the movies I've purchased on my Apple TV to appear in my iTunes library for viewing… Any suggestions? I have iTunes Match turned on and everything.
Thanks Terence! I can see iTunes library from neither iPhoto or iMovie . I'll check on iTunes forum.

I was attempting to upload a video to face book and decided to cancel, now I can not get the quicktime icon with Facebook icon embedded to delete? what are steps to clear desktop?
A warm welcome to Apple discussions!
A 2003 iMac cannot support Snow Leopard 10.6; you'd need an Intel processor and that cannot be retrofitted to your Mac. What does "About this Mac" in your Apple menu say for your processor speed? What does it say about how much RAM you have?
If the processor is 1ghz or faster, you can run OS 10.5; otherwise, you are maxed out at 10.4.11.
Also, are you running any commercial ("pay for") anti-virus or security software? They are notorious for slowing most Macs to a fraction of their speed potential.
A too-full hard drive can drag down performance, especially if you don't have a lot of physical RAM installed. If you single-click your hard drive icon and then do command i, you'll see the disk usage. Looks like this:
The value for "Used" should be no more than about 90 percent of "Capacity." In the example image, that drive has about 34 percent of its space used and 66 percent free--more than enough. Please post what you see for your Capacity and Used numbers
There are a few more things we might check but this is a good start.
Awaiting your information,

i am having macbook air recently my iphotos did not open and was showing report apple and reopen but i came to know that by pressing alt and iphotos i open an new photo library and stored the pics but now how can i get the pics which i had in the earlier photo please help me to recover my photos
Well I'll guess you're using iPhoto 11:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

I just upgraded my iMac to OS 10.8.5 from 10.6.8 and now I can not get the calendars on my Mac and my iPhone 4s (running iOS 8.3) to sync. I already tried replacing the calendars on the phone with those on my computer but nothing happened.

I bought a song on itunes a while ago and I couldn’t back up my ipod because I needed more storage. Once my ipod was updated, ALL of my memory was deleted (since it wasn’t backed up) and I couldn't get my song back without paying for it again. Is there a way to retrieve it without paying for the second time?
Just follow these instructions:

I created an iMovie using pictures from my camera roll, I exported the movie to the camera roll and then deleted all of the pictures. Now I can't get the movie to play. Did deleting the pictures cause my IMovie to disappear? How can I get my movie back?
Download and open this program, lets you look around your I phone as if it was a disc drive, might find em in the iphones drive.

What do you mean? You can't delete the Calendar app.
Just how did you delete the event? -

I am trying to SYNC my iPhone and mine iPad and I am getting the message "
This update is for an app download with a different Apple ID. Sign in with that Apple ID and try again." I do not have another apple ID. I have tried everything including resetting my password. Everything I can think of. Ideas?Hi julia151,
I would first use this article to make sure any extra Apple IDs were not accidentally created when signing up for one of Apple's services:
Apple ID: Finding your Apple ID

If you can't locate one, try using this article to delete and redownload your app:

I am trying to update iphoto but I have been receiving the error message "This update is for an app downloaded with a different Apple ID. Sign in with that Apple ID and try again." All other IDs I have had NO LONGER work or aren't activated. I deleted the current verison of iphoto, but it still won't work, so now I have no iphoto whatsoever...any ideas? my current ID is my ONLY ID I have.
Apple Closed all other accounts and the logins DO NOT WORK!
Apple would only have closed an account if you called Apple and formally requested that be done. Otherwise, the account is still there.
I was able to delete my old apps and redownload them onto my computer which switch the Apple ID it was under, but I am not having the same luck with iPhoto.
Those would have been free apps that you "bought" again using your new Apple ID. iPhoto is a paid app and Apple will not transfer it to a different Apple ID. -
I have IMac 10.7.5 Lion I use I forgot the password and I did a few fixes from web sites, which did not work and now I can not get the computer to reboot the gray screen comes on with the apple and if a shift+c, I get a load bar and it goes half way and stops, I can get into the black screen area with the hard drive info
I did the following: mount -uw / rm/var/db/.AppleSetupDone shutdown/uses/us reboot Ok I know I should not have, but now I need help to reboot and hopefully not lose everything on the desk top, Linda MarkleYou did the wrong things. In the future it's a good idea to remember not to do something when you don't know what you are doing and what happens when you do it.
