I can't send emails, I have tried to go to smtp and change the outgoing email username and password but it won't let me change it!
I have tried to change the smtp username and password but I am not able to even click on the areas to change them. Any suggestions?
Some other thoughts .....
Are you sure there's not an issue on the Yahoo server? Have you checked your email on a computer or via a web browser on the iPad like Safari?
If there is no issues on the server side, the options in my mind are.....
Delete the email account and start over
Reset all settings>Settings>General>ResetAll Settings - you erase all settings on the iPad and start over
Restore from a backup.
Just wait until a little later - or tomorrow and see if you can connect again.
If you just started experiencing this issue today, and if you are a regular iPad backup person (I do it every single day) then you can restore from a backup from yesterday, the day before or from whenever your most recent backup is dated.
You said that you have two other accounts that will not work either so maybe resetting the settings would be the first thing to try. You should be able to at least enter the correct information again if you reset the settings.
I mysteriously lost the ability to connect with one of my email accounts some months ago. I deleted the account and went nuts trying to add it back to the device and I could not get it to work again. I deleted it again and restored from my backup and all was good to go again. Your backups contain your email settings so when I restored from the backup, it restored the email account settings and it worked again.

I want to change my icloud id on my iPhone, but it won't let me now that i have upgraded. I no longer have the password and the problem is It is using an old id which the email isn't valid and the security question does not think my birthday is valid. I cannnot delete the account because "find my iphone" wants the password linked to this old account. But when i go into the find my iphone app it is using my corect Apple ID. How do i fix this?
If you still have access to your old email address, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email account and verify it. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. You can now go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your correct iCloud ID and password.
If you don't have access to your old email address, you will have to contact Apple to have them reset the password so you can disable Find My iPhone and sign into your iCloud account. You can either go to https://expresslane.apple.com, select "More Products and Services", then "Apple ID", then on the next page select "Other Apple ID Topics", then "Lost or forgotten Apple ID password" and click "Continue"; or you can contact Apple Support (http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/). -
I just paid the $19.99, and the app won't install. I have it already on my computer from a free trial a few years ago, but it won't let me continue without a serial number. My email didn't include that

You won't be able to register a few year old software with the serial number from today.

I have 6p from a gift card left in the English store and can't spend it. I want to change to the Irish store as I have an Irish gift card for me to redeem but it won't let me change store. Also I don't want to use a credit card for the last 6p.

I have a JVC video camera and it records the video to a .mod format (which Apple devices don't support). I figured out how to get them to iPhoto using iMovie but I want to be able to get the videos on my iPad 2 but it won't let it sync. Any help?
Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.

I often use credit card for iTunes but also use iTunes but systems won't let me change back to my iTunes. I have redeemed and gives me a balance but I am unable to access.
If you can't find anything for exactly that amount then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will remove the balance for you : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

I changed my Apple ID/ email address. But iCloud won't let me change from my old one. I don't remember my password to my old one. How do I fix this?
Hello Brookeg189,
You may be able to use the password for your existing iCloud account to get past this dialog.

I am a member of Send Now and have several PDF files for small Dog Rescue.
I need to change several things on the forms but it won't let me make changes.
It tells me to pay for this & I am paid up till 2017 on the Adobe Send Now?
Help I don't want to rewrite the whole contract to change a few simple things.Hi Lana Gahagan,
Adobe Send is a service used for sending large files. It does not provide you with the facility to edit or create PDF. Also, as suggested earlier in the thread, using Acrobat you can edit the PDF.
Thanks,

i live in canada and am trying to sent a calendar to friends in the US in the edit shipping address section it won't let me change the country. what am i doing wrong?
You can only ship Apple products to the same country as the credit card used is billed to. So unless you have a credit card with a billing address in the States you won't be able to ship direct.

Please help. My daughter forgot her passcode and her apple id so we reset the ipod as per instructed I got her a new apple id. and now she can not redownload any of her apps. It says that she needs a 4.3 and she only has a 4.2.1. We are trying to download the same apps she had before and it won't allow it. I can not seem to get the 4.3. We are unable to download anything. Any help would be appreciated.
I was told it was a 3rd generation at purchase but when checking online it sometimes shows 3 and sometimes 2. I am totally confused and just want her to be able to use the device. Thanks and Blessings.If you have iOS 4.2.1 or later on the iPod and there was version compatible with that version, then you should be able to get a compatible version by:
App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists. -

Hi
So for my first project in numbers, I wanted to create a spreadsheet of all my contacts. I read the manual, watched a video tutorial, and tried just about everything I could think of, but I am un successful with dragging and dropping the contacts into a blank template. Can anyone help?Thanks for the feedback. You said you watched a video. Was it Gary's tutorial at MacMost.com? I really enjoyed that one.

Can see different brush size options but it won't let me change the size
When I'm in Flash CC 2014, I go to the tools menu, then the brush size option, and I can see all of the various brush sizes. I am able to click any size, but when I go to draw, it keeps defaulting to the same size over and over. I'm completely unable to change the brush size. Any ideas?
i am using a wacom bamboo fun cte-650 as my tablet
the pressure sensetivity is disabled, and the tilt option is disabled as well.
i am running flash CC 2014 = Version 14.0 - Released June 2014
and we have tried this with just the mousepad, and the tablet, neither seem to let us change brush sizes
i have attached a video of the issue taking place
