Some free advice. If your son is 8 years old, put him on your account, and set parental controls so that he cannot accidentally run up giant charges within the games.
If your son is 25 years old, get him his own AppleID and make him responsible for his own bills.
In between ... use your judgement.

I have restored my new iphone 5 but everytime i plug it back into iTunes i am asked if i want to set up a new phone or restore it. I have already set it up and tried to restore it again thinking this might help but i still keep getting the same message. The phone is recognised and shows up in devices but i cannpt sync apps or anything to it.
Have you updated your iTunes on your computer? WIth a device running iOS7, you need iTunes 11.
When you removed iTUnes, did you see something named 'apple mobile device support' or something like it? (The exact name varies from operating system to operating system). If you see that, uninstall it too. That's the drivers for your iPhone and they should self-install when you plug your device in.
If all that is fine, have you checked your cable and USB port? a malfunctioning cable can keep you from syncing. -

hi, I was trying to update my iPhone 3gS but when I turn it on again iTunes send me a message that says error 3194 occurs, please help me!!
If the screen shows a plug going to itunes, then you have no choice, It's in recovery mode. You'll be given the chance to restore from a backup either from itunes or icloud.
I assume when you got the message to update (was this for the ios or update some apps?), that was before the device when dead. At any rate, doing a restore does not change the ios. -
I am trying to activated a brand new iPhone 4s but the serial number isn't working. Suggestions?
I am trying to activated a brand new iPhone 4s but the serial number isn't working. Suggestions?
Are you getting any error message or other data that helps to understand why the SR # is not working? Sometimes when entering a serial number a letter or number is entered incorrectly because a 1 looks like an l or an s looks like a 5. Make certain that this type of an entry error is not your problem.

I'm trying to set up my new iphone 5s. I've backed up my icloud for my 4s to my mac. When I've tried to download from my icloud to my 5S i got an error message and my mac has updated itunes (I think). My new 5s is just sitting with the apple logo and a bar underneath which has moved about 10% but nothing for about 20 mins. I can't turn the 5s off? What do I do?
Problem resoled - it sorted itself out!! Thought I'd broken it before I'd even used it.

i keep trying to set up a new Apple ID but apparently my card info is not working. how do i fix this? "contact ituunes support to complete this transaction"
If the problem persists, you'll probably have to make another apple id, it wont take off any games or music or apps or anything you've bought it will all stay there, i have two apple id's and i don't have a problem with anything.

I'm trying to set up my new iPhone using iCloud - I entered my apple ID and password and selected the backup to restore from but the next page asks me to enter a password for a DIFFERENT apple ID
What different Apple ID? Yours? Your friends? Your dogs... ? I think we are going to need more information. You're probably best setting up the phone as a new phone and restoring from iCloud later on.

Trying to set up my new iphone 5s from the cloud
Im trying to set up my new iphone 5s by restoring from the cloud. When I get to the "choose backup" screen, i try to choose my latest back up, but nothing happens. the wring is in gray and nothing happens when I touch it. the bottum of the screen says "No icoud backups are compatibel with the version of iOS(7.0.4) on this iphone) Please help. I can't use my phone and I need to make some calls.
It sounds as if your new iPhone has iOS 7.0.4, but the backup was performed using iOS 7.1. if that is the case, here is how to solve this:
1. Upgrade your new iPhone to iOS 7.1. If it cannot yet get to Setitings, set is up as a new iPhone. Then do Settings > General > Software Update.
2. Prepare to restore the iCloud backup. The way to do this is to now do Settings > Gerneral > Reset > Erase all content and settings
3. Restore the iCloud Backup. You will now be directed through the "Hello", set up WiFi, enter your Apple ID, and choose a backup.
This will only work if your old backup used the same telephone number, cellular carrier, and Apple ID of the new iPhone. -

I am trying to sync my new MacBook Air iCal with my iMac calendar. It will synce with MobileMe calendar on the iMac, but I can't get rid of iCal on the iMac and this one keeps coming up with an error message.
About the only thing you can try is using the Online Internet Recovery system to reinstall Lion on your Mac over the top of the current install. that will reset all system files and should not touch your personal files or the apps you have installed.
Or iof you have a recent Time Machine backup use that to restore your Mac to that point in time. -
I setup my iCloud account on my iPhone 5 with the wrong e mail address, and I don't remmber the password, I reset my tel and erase all the information on my iPhone in order to try to set up a new iCloud account but when I restart I have a problem agaIn , they ask me to put again the old iCloud user account and password, what I can do in order to start the phone when I don't have the correct e mail and I don't remmber the passcode.?
I have the same problem as the emails go to my iCloud account that I cannot access!!! I cannot answer the security questions as someone else must have set up my iCloud account. Nothing seems to work. It would be great if someone has some ideas as what can be done to recover the situation?
