The password would be either your iTunes ID password or your admin password for the Computer.

HT201272 I downloaded an app 5 years ago on my iPhone with another Apple ID that I cannot get into now because I forgot the ID. I'd like to download the same app on my iPad now. The developer says it should be no problem. Any ideas how to solve this?

It will be tied to your old account, so only that old account will be able to re-download it - but redownloading an account's past purchases may tie a computer or device to the account for 90 days : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627
Do you have a copy of it anywhere e.g. on your computer's iTunes, or on a backup of your library ? If you have it on a backup then you should be prompted to authorise the account (and I think that the id will show) if you try to add it to your computer's iTunes via File > Add To Library.

I'm having trouble with installing a 8g kit in my late 2009 mac mini. when the parts are installed all i get is a beeping sound, is there any way to get around this?

What is the source & link to this 8 GB kit please?
Can you count the beeps or flashes?
1 beep = no RAM installed
2 beeps = incompatible RAM types
3 beeps = no good banks
4 beeps = no good boot images in the boot ROM (and/or bad sys config block)
5 beeps = processor is not usable
In addition to the beeps, on some computers the power LED will flash a corresponding number of times plus one. The LED will repeat the sequence after approximately a 5-second pause. The tones are only played once.
Note: In this case, a flash is considered to be 1/4 second or 250 ms or greater in length.

Restore iphone from previous back up

I have recently deleted lots of apps, info from my iPhone 5, thinking I would restore it from a back up later. But when I connect to I-tunes, it only gives me the option of restoring from the most recent back up, or some from over a year ago.. I want to restore it to a back up from two weeks ago, but I can't find it, or none of the hundreds of back ups I've done in the past year, can this be done? Or are those back ups gone? Thanks if u can help

HT5824 Trying to back up my iPhone that has a shattered screen. But it is requiring me to enter the passcode on the phone itself because the phone is locked. That is impossible. Any suggestions on getting around that so I can back up my data?

Trying to back up iPhone because phone has a shattered screen. But it is requiring a passcode before I can back it up and the passcode has to be entered on the phone itself, which is impossible due to shattered screen. Any suggestions on a way to get around this?

If you never synced with iTunes since setting the passcode on it, you won't be able to back up to your computer without entering the passcode first. You can't get around this. This requirement is for your own safety, as it keeps someone who steals you phone from being able to back up your data to their computer without knowing your passcode.

I have this problem with the APP store. There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (null) Any idea as to how to fix this?

Does this happen when you try to update?
These guys have a cool solution that has helped with that error when you can't update an app: http://support.iawriter.com/help/kb/mac-questions/the-app-store-fails-with-there -was-an-error-in-the-app-store-please-try-again-later-null
NOTE: the instructions are specifically for their app but the solution has also worked for other apps too. They are, however, more advanced steps so proceed with caution.

How to restore Ipad from previous backup that is not the restore list?

I did a firmware update for Ipad from 5.1.1 to 6.1
I backup my Ipad before I did it at 4.46am
Then I restore my Ipad so it will install IOS 6.1
However I accidentally set it up as new device with a differrent name (default suggested by itune which is "AL's Ipad")
Then I try to select my previous backup called "Ipad 3"
But I cant see "Ipad 3" from my restore list.
So can I restore my "Ipad 3" backup?

If you went through the process of restoring your iCloud backup, then tapped Show Older Backups when asked which backup to restore to and the backup you're looking for isn't listed, there's no way to recover it. You could check to see if you have an older backup on your computer that would have the data you're looking for by opening iTunes and going to Setting>Devices and checking the Backups list.

Trying to restore music from IPOD back onto repaired computer after crash

My motherboard crashed on my computer causing me to lose all my music except for the ones I've recently purchased. Does anyone know how to get the music from the IPOD back onto ITunes without having to erase my entire IPOD?

Try senuti.
EDIT: Didn't see you were using windows. Repost in this forum.
Good luck!

Am in Israel for work for a few months. When I try to update my apps it tells me to locate the Israeli store. Any way to get around this? Thanks.

Am working in Israel for a few months. When I try to update my apps it tells me my account is not valid for use in the U.S. store, must PURCHASE in the Israeli store. I'm not trying to purchase new apps, just trying to update my apps. Ipad2 was purchased and registered in the U.S.
Thanks for any advice I receive.

All that you had to do was to sign into the old account in order to update those apps. What I mean is that you just needed to sign into that account in the store settings like I described and that should have worked. You didnt need to enter the credit card information again - you justed needed to use the old ID and password.
Anyway, I think the good news is that if everything else is OK with the new account, just download iBooks with the new ID - it's a free app so its not like you have to pay for it again. I'm not sure what the other App is that you are talking about - but if it is the Apple Store App - that is free as well.
Try this anyway, when you try to update iBooks, just use the old password if the old ID still pops up.
Did you try signing into the store settings with your new ID and see what happens with the updates then?

Exporting sound for dvd studio 4. Studio 4 is only accepting ac3, saying bit rate too high in ALL other formats. However, aa3 auto levels the sound, which is not wanted, and it also drops the volume by about 40%, also not wanted. How do I get around this.

I have successfully used various formats and bit rates of sound in DVD Pro 4 with no problems, AIFF, WAVE, (obviously preferable as they give a good quality of sound as intended). However, of late, DVD Pro 4 refuses AIFF, WAVE, and anything higher than the lowest ac3 bit rate/format. This is rendering an aweful sound, auto volume leveled - which gives a very unprofessional fluctuation in volume and making a ionsense of careful sound editing. It also renders the volume at about 30% - 40% lower than the original master requiring huge increase in amplifier volume settings to get a decent volume.I have tried every format and bit rate, but FCP and DVD Pro 4 will only accept the lowest ac3 setting.
I have customers awaiting video of their concerts, can not deliver with this sound issue.
very much appreciate some assistance here.

I suggest posting this in the Final Cut Studio forum where regular users of DVDSP are more likely to see your post and respond. When you do, I would expect someone will ask why you arent using Compressor in your workflow…)
Good luck.

My ITunes Store screen background is all black. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the newest version and it still is black. Any ideas how to fix this?

My ITunes store background is all black. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the newest version and it's still all black. Anyone have any ideas?

With that one, perhaps try Drgoo's suggestion from the following post:
Re: Itunes Store - ALL Text Black/Cant See Anything

When we are watching something on Apple TV and our Macbook Pro turns on or off the Apple TV goes back to the menu and stops whatever is currently playing. Any idea how to stop this?

Any ideas?

Thanks, but there has to be someway through ITunes or something to make this not happen. It used to not do this so something with an update or something must have changed a setting somewhere. Anyone else have any ideas?

AddThis Button is gone after the last update. Also when I click on add ons, then select the options button on any add on the add on screen locks up and I have to shut down firefox. Any Ideas how to fix this? Running Windows XP.

After the most recent Firfox update, the Add-on page locks up when I click on options for any add-on. Also my AddThis button is gone.

# Yes, if you go to accounts.firefox.org, sign out, you will now be signed out.
# Sign back in, and you will be asked to save the password you entered.
# This will save the password and autocomplete if you have this option turned on.
I am not exactly sure why the menu did not detect the password change or if it was stored incorrectly after you changed it? But after storing the correct password you can manage any duplicate passwords in the password manager.[[Password manager - Remember, delete and change saved passwords in Firefox]]
