    Yesterday I changed my email password on my home computer.  Today, I can't get any new emails on my Samsung Galaxy 4; I deleted the email account entirely and tried to set it up again as a new account, using the new password, but it keeps giving me an error message that reads: Cannot safely connect to server.  The new password is working on my home computer.  I even tried the old password; it just gave me the same error message.

    I'm sorry you're having issues with your e-mail account on your phone Rusty1112. Let's figure out what's going on. First, please try deleting account/information again and then restart phone. When phone is back on, try adding e-mail account again, and be sure you're entering exactly as you set up, meaning its case-sensitive. If you're still getting same error, please let us know and let us know what e-mail account it is, Yahoo, AOL, MSN, etc.
    Thank you,

  • How do you transfer Apple IDs from one ipad to another iPad?  I got the new ipad and gave my ipad 2 to my wife who had the first version and now I can't get my Apple ID off so she can use her Apple ID.

    how do you transfer Apple IDs from one ipad to another iPad?  I got the new ipad and gave my ipad 2 to my wife who had the first version and now I can't get my Apple ID off so she can use her Apple ID.

    You don't transfer Apple ID's from one device to another one. You sign out in the settings, )the App Store and iTunes if necessary) and then sign in with the other ID.
    Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Apple ID>Sign out. Them sign in with the other ID. You can sign out of the app store and iTunes as well by going to the featured Atab in the App Store and the music tab in iTunes, swipe to the bottom and access the Apple ID in there.
    You should have erased the iOad before you gave it to her in Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings. That way she could set up the iPad as new with her own Apple ID.
    Be aware of the fact that if you use each others ID's in order to download past purchased content to your own iPads, you will lock yourself out of your own ID as you will have associated your iPad with the other person's Apple ID.
    In other words, if you sign into your wife's ID on your iPad so that you can download an app or an album so that you don't have to pay for it again, you will lock yourself out of your Apple ID for 90 days.

  • I am trying to log on to iwork but it keeps saying that my password is incorrect. I have already reset it and entered my new password and it still is not working. what should i do?

    I am trying to log on to iwork but it keeps saying that my password is incorrect. I have already reset it and entered my new password and it still is not working. what should i do?

    I really can't comprehend the logic that leads to believe that password for old apple id will come to e-mail for new id. Buy may be I just misunderstood something. Contact Apple for assist with password retrieval. If you can verify yourself as account owner they may be able to help you.

  • When I connect my iPad mini to my iMac it recognizes the iPad but my Garage Band documents are not available for transfer. How can I fix this?

    I'm having trouble transfering my garage band documents from my iPad mini to my iMac. iTunes recognizes the device, but when I select the app to add or save files to... nothing appears there, as if I had not recorded anything on my iPad. Can anyone help me?

    Hi there
    to make your files to appear in the apps section of iTunes you have to take some  steps.
    - go to Garageband on your iPad
    - tap My Songs to go to the list of your songs (if your are not already there )
    - tap Select
    - select one song
    - tap the share button (top left)
    - tap itunes
    - you are then asked to chose a format. There is an explation for each format.
    - Choose one
    - repeat the last 5 steps  with every song you want to transfer.
    - when your done tap done
    The songs should now appear when you connect the iPad.
    Hope that helps

  • Can't connect my ipad mini with comcast wifi?

    My wifi with Comcast keeps disconnecting from my Ipad Mini and I can't get it back on.

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • Trying to sync my IPad but can't get it to "communicate" with my computer.  Keeps telling me "not connecting"

    I have been trying to Sync my IPAD to my computer for over an hour, I cannot get it to show that it's "plugged" in.  I keep getting the "not charging" showing in my upper corner.  Is there anything I can do to get it to sync? 
    There is nothing wrong with the cable as I just synced my IPHONE and have synced with my IPAD in the past.  I am beyond frustrated.

    Let me take up the comment by King Penguin who is right about the charging issue with some computers: not all USB 2 ports are equal apparently.  However, I did read somewhere that even those that are not showing a charging may allow some trickle-charging to occur (take you about 12 hours to notice anything).
    However, I think the problem here is that not only is charging not taking place, but the iPad is not shown in the sidebar.  There are usually two possible causes here: the hardware (which in BrookeLeigh's case could be the iPad or its connector) or the software.
    In the latter case, no iOS device will probably be shown (IPad, iPhone or iPod touch), which could be what is afflicting tahnehdo.  Nonetheless, before trying some of the fixes Apple suggests, a check with another cable (or computer -- be careful not to sync) might tell you if this is hardware.
    If not, Apple KB documents are useful in tracking down and fixing the problem.  Start with this http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/itunes/ Troubleshooting guide and work your way through. Note there are different processes for Windows and Macs. 
    It would be helpful if you could put some more information as even knowledge of the OS will mean a different approach may need to be taken.  We do not know if it is iPad 1 or 2, the OS, the computer you have or if you have other iOS devices that could help you in analysis.

  • I tried to restore my ipad but all i have got is the itunes logo and cable and it wont restore with an error saying 1604

    Major help please.
    Bought my ipad yesterday and the sync all worked fine. I needed to wipe it which worked but now it wont restore and the ipad wont go past the itunes logo with the connecting wire on the front screen and when it sometimes does, after the restore there is an error (1604)
    stressing.
    help would be much appreciated.

    CT782-
    How long did you wait?  It might just take a while.
    Could the computer's USB port have gone to sleep?  I would try disconnecting the iPad and reconnecting it, to see if that is what iTunes is waiting for.
    If there is another USB port, try that one too.

  • HT5934 IPad 2 cannot access wifi, even with the correct password.

    My iPad 2 does not accept the password it should when trying to access the wifi access available at my employer. Once my employer removed his password protection from his wifi router, my iPad accepted the wifi. An iPhone  accepted the  same password today... It hesitated a bit longer than we expected, however, it did access the wifi router. We've tried multiple times, my employer uses Macs, and he's tried accessing his wifi with my iPad... He's even changed the name on his wifi, checked all settings, crosschecked that the password is a valid password, still, my iPad gives me an error "incorrect password ".  It only makes sense if we were using an incorrect password, but we weren't! Help!

  • "Incorrect Password" after I enter the right password on iPad

    I'm trying to connect to my houses wi-fi network but when I enter the wi-fi password it tells me that it's not correct. My iPad sees the network and has very strong connectivity but it won't accept the password. I've reset the network settings on the ipad at least three times and I've been trying to connect for the past 2 hours. Is this anything to do with my router? HELP!!!
    I have an iPhone4 and my phone accepts the wifi password but the iPad won't accept the password and this is getting frustrating.

    sorry, not strong connectivity because obviuosly it's not connecting. I meant that the iPad is seeing the network signal and it shows that the signal is strong but when I enter the password it says the password is wrong when in reality the password is correct.

    Hi skippy2012trev,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you updated your Apple Id and password but now you are being prompted for the old information in iCloud. You are on the right track by changing the Apple ID back to the previous email address temporarily so that you can sign out. You should not need to verify the email address. After you edit the Apple ID back to the old email address and then sign out of iCloud on your iPhone, edit the Apple ID back to the address you would currently like to use. There is no need to change the password again, only the email address, unless you prefer to update the password again.
    If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud - Apple Support
    Change your Apple ID temporarily
    If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't help, try these steps:
    Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
    Tap Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
    Scroll down and tap Sign Out, then tap Sign Out to confirm. If you're using iOS 7 or earlier, tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
    Tap Keep on My [Device] or Delete from My [Device]. In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
    Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
    Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
    Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.
    Cheers,
    Joe

  • Connecting my ipad mini to my camera using the USB camera kit error message 'device is to powerful' keeps popping up.

    I am trying to connect my iPad mini to my Samsung camera using the USB camera kit, I keep getting the error message ' device to powerful'. Is there anyway to fix this or do I need to take it back?? The shop assistant in Currys assured me it should work and it wasn't cheap at £25 for a tiny wire! I have read other posts concerning this but they are dated quite a while ago so just wondered what the newest advice was concerning this. Thanks

    The camera is drawing too much power for your iPad. This can happen on cameras which charge their batteries using the USB connection. Make sure that you have the camera set to the correct settings for picture transfer - check the documentation that came with the camera.
    Note that you can return the USB kit and get the SD card adaptor or get a powered USB hub if you can't get the camera to work any other way.
