I can't sign into anything apple on my laptop.

I can not sign into iTunes, iCloud, iMessage. Also this Keychaing thing keeps popping up and i have a feeling it's the issue and I can't reset that either. please help!

There is more than one issue. I suggest you fix the keychain problem first.
At some point, you may have reset your keychain to default in Keychain Access. That action would have caused your login keychain to be renamed.
Back up all data before proceeding.
In Keychain Access, delete the login keychain from the keychain list. Choose Delete References when prompted, not Delete References & Files.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
~/Library/Keychains
In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V), and press return. A folder will open. Rename the file "login.keychain" in that folder to something like "login-old.keychain". Rename the file "login_renamed_1.keychain" to "login.keychain". You can then close the folder.
Back in Keychain Access, select 
          File ▹ Add Keychain...
from the menu bar. Add back the file now named "login.keychain". If any of your needed keychain items are missing from it, also add back the file you named "login-old.keychain". I suggest you transfer any needed items from that keychain to the login keychain, then delete it. The transfers are made by drag-and-drop in Keychain Access. You'll need to enter your password for each item transferred.

  • I can't sign into my apple id in my ipad

    i can't sign into my apple id account in my ipad.
    i can't update my apps!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Is it just not recognising your password or doesn't it give you the option to sign in?

  • How can I sign into my apple ID on all my devices without actually being with the device?

    My mom lost her iphone and we can't use Find My Iphone because she wasn't signed into iCloud. Help please!

    If Find my iPhone was not activated before the phone was lost there is no way to track it. Check on the iCloud website. Log in with the APple ID. If you do not see your device listed on Find my iPhone there, it was not activated.

  • I can't sign into my apple acct. It wont take my password. help please

    My apple acct.wont take my password since the IOS6 update. HELP

    Hi Suzanna,
    I'm sorry to hear that your iPhone isn't accepting your Apple ID username or password since you upgraded to iOS 6.
    I suggest that you do the following to try and rectify the problem:
    If you have been able to setup your iPhone since the upgrade;
    1. Open the "Settings" app on the home screen.
    2. Scroll down to "iTunes & App Stores" and open it.
    3. Your Apple ID should be displayed at the top of the page. Tap your Apple ID.
    4. It may ask you for your password, if so you see if you can see an option for "iForgot" and tap it.
    5. Go through Apple's password recovery protocols.
    If you can't setup your iPhone because iOS 6 is my accepting your Apple ID;
    1. Go to a PC / Mac and open your web browser.
    2. In the address bar, type in the following address: http://iforgot.apple.com
    3. Go thorough Apples password recovery protocols.
    If your still stuck;
    1. Please check that the Apple ID (usually an email address) you are entering is correct. Make sure nothing is in capital letters that should be in lower case etc.
    2. Make sure that the password you are entering is correct, including the case of the letters etc.
    3. Go to iTunes and see what Apple ID your computer is signed into. Make sure it is the right one, especially if you have multiple iOS users in your house and have others using the same PC / Mac to sync their devices. Their is a chance that someone has logged into iTunes using their Apple ID and logged you out.
    I hope this helps! If this doesn't work then please reply again.
    Cam.

  • Why can't sign into my Apple ID login? It won't recognize me anymore.

    I have used my apple account for years, but recently I cannot login. It says I have the wrong password. I know I don't I use it on a regular basis. When I go to try and reset my password it asks me a question. What is your date of birth? I answer that question and it says I answered it wrong. What is going on? I have a hotmail login ID. Is it because it is a hotmail login account?

    I had the same problem, but when i logged in to my apple account it just kept saying apple id and primary email address to join together? i dunno whats going as i was using my hotmail address as my apple id? is anyone having the same problem....
    I still wanna use my hotmail address as my apple id?! if anyone... solved the problem tell me plz thanks

  • Can't sign into my Apple Youtube app (the app that Safari links to when you click on a Youtube video). Ive tried the 2 step verification method and tried signing in with my gmail and the password given for the app- doesnt work? What do I do?

    Ive tried followinf a number of posts on using the 2 step verification method- none of it works. Please I need help with this, thanks.

    Also forgot to mention- i can log in with Google's Youtube app- the problem is Safari doesnt link to this app.  So if anyone knows how to get Safari to link to Google's Youtube app youd also solve this problem for me.

    What is the full text of the message that you are getting ?
    Messages about countries usually refer to the country that you have on your iTunes account. You have your correct billing address on your account, and you are in that country ? If you can't log into your account directly on your phone to view/correct your address details (e.g. via Settings > iTunes & App Store), then can you do it via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or via http://appleid.apple.com ?

  • Apple id was originally disabled. I reset my password and can sign into my apple id account. But when i want to buy an app in the app store it says my apple id is disabled again.

    apple id was originally disabled. I reset my password and can sign into my apple id account. But when i want to buy an app in the app store it says my apple id is disabled again.

    It's real easy to create a new one and, in fact, it's too easy.  I say that because multiple IDs are a PIA.  The problem is that anything obtained from the iTunes Store is PERMANENTLY associated with the ID that was used to obtain the item(s).  iTunes items can not be transferred from one ID to another and IDs can not be merged.
    The problem arises when you want to update an app.  If you're doing it from iTunes on your computer, you must log out and back in to get to the correct ID.  Then you update and log out/in again to get back to where you started.  It's slightly easier if you update from the iPad/iPod device as there is no need to log out/in BUT you still need the correct password for the appropriate ID.  Of course, with a disabled ID, the problem is much worse!
    A replacement Apple ID makes sense ONLY if you wish to start out absolutely brand new with zero iTunes Store purchases.
    If you're really butting your head aginst a wall and you're reasonably close to an Apple Store, my suggestion is that you make an appointment with the resident "Genius" and get his/her help.
    One last thought...  If your brother actually got a human on the phone to dispute the charges, go there and explain the problem.  Of course, if Apple did not accept his explanation of what occurred, that could be the whole issue.  Apple believes that money is owed on the account!

  • I can't sign into ICloud. Can't download anything.

    Okay I am having a problem with the ICloud. I think. This is my fourth device in our iCloud family. An iPhone 4. It will not let me sign into my Apple ID in settings. It loads and then nothing happens. I checked my email in case they sent me a letter but nothing. I can't download anything and I really don't want to do a factory reset so please help me...... This is a new phenomenon. All other devices work fine. We have the same homesharing. iPhone 5, IPhone 4s and IPad Mini are the other devices.

    I would try resetting all settings (in Settings>General>Reset) if you haven't already.  This will erase passwords for previously joined wifi networks so you will need to re-join your wifi after doing so.
    If it still won't sign in, you probably need to restore the phone.  If you back it up properly ahead of time you won't lose a thing by doing so.  I would back up to both iCloud and iTunes (connect your phone to your computer, open iTunes, go to File>Devices>Back Up and File>Devices>Transfer Purchases) so you have redundant backups in case one of them fails.

  • Can't sign into apple support communities with icloud apple id

    i realise this isn't the right community for this question, but apple don't have a support category called "apple support".
    i have that problem where I have an appleid called "frumbert", which I got about 10 years ago. it is and always has been tied to my gmail email address. i used this for about 5 years worth of itunes purchases, then forgot it for a couple of years.
    when I got an ipad I also got an icloud account, and stupidly signed up using my gmail email address as my icloud username. it's tied to the same gmail email address as my existing "frumbert" account. i've since made all my itunes and app purchases using my icloud appleid, and it's the one associated with my mac warranties and such.
    so two appleid's share the same email address.
    i can't sign into apple support commuities with it because I need a new username. i can't create a new username because the email address is tied to an account already (this one, the old one, "frumbert"). An account utilizing this email address already exists. Only one account per email address is allowed on Apple Support Communities. Apple's way of saying you're c-ockblocked!
    but I can't also change the "frumbert" account because there's another account with the same email address, my icloud one.
    fark! how does one get out of this mess?

    I'm having the exact same problem and so are a lot of other people. Apple's solution - shut up and create a new account just for the support community.
    Smells outsourced to me!

  • Using the right apple ID and password I can't sign into iMassage? Why

    Using the right apple ID and password with wi-fi I can't sign into iMassage. Why?

    Did you purchase Apple Care? If you did, you still have access to Apple Support.  If not, go to your Apple Store and let them help you get it set up correctly.  I'm sure it's something simple we're missing.  Good Luck. 
    Do remember one thing.  iMessage on iPad only works with other iOS devices.  This means you can only text to people who:
    1.  Have an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch
    2.  And they have upgraded to iOS 5 or higher
