I currently sold my iphone 4s to someone else and I think I forgot to delete the icloud on its account. Will the new user of my old iphone be able to download apps and use my money? Apparently, I cannot buy new apps on my ipad.

Help? Will the new user be able to use my account to buy apps?

If you did not sign out of your Apple ID in theory the new owner could use your account. However, they would also have to know your password in order to use the account.
What do you mean by you can't buy apps on your new iPad? That is such a broad statement. You are not signed into your account in Settings>Store? The new owner tried to use the Apple ID and and your account was disabled?
I would get in touch with the new owner if you have concerns. You will need to work this out somehow. I suppose that you could wipe the device using Find My iPad if it's not too late and all of the conditions for doing so are still in place.

I've lost my iphone with passcode lock and find my iphone lock on but the wifi n cellular data was turned off so no way i can trace it so the only question remains is will the person who finds it be able to unlock it and use it as his own ?

is it possible to change imei number?
i've tried for so many times n still the phone is offline so i've set it to offline mode with my message but it never shows the last location why?

If the device is found, nobody can use it without knowing your Apple ID and password.
The phone will only show it's location if it is connected to cellular network or Wi-Fi. If those options are switched off, you can't locate the phone.
With iOS 7, Find My iPhone includes a new feature called Activation Lock, which is designed to prevent anyone else from using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch if you ever lose it. It starts working the moment you turn on Find My iPhone in iOS 7. With Activation Lock, your Apple ID and password will be required before anyone can:
Turn off Find My iPhone on your device
Erase your device
Reactivate and use your device
This can help you keep your device secure, even if it is in the wrong hands, and can improve your chances of recovering it. Even if you erase your device remotely, Activation Lock can continue to deter anyone from reactivating your device without your permission. All you need to do is keep Find My iPhone turned on, andremember your Apple ID and password.
What steps should I take if I misplace my device?
If you ever misplace your device—whether it’s just lost or you think it may have been stolen—you should put it into Lost Mode immediately using Find My iPhone.
Lost Mode locks your screen with a four-digit passcode and lets you display a custom message with your phone number to help you get it back. You can also remotely erase your device if needed, and your custom message will continue to display even after the device is erased.
While Activation Lock works in the background to make it more difficult for someone to use or sell your missing device, Lost Mode clearly indicates to anyone who finds your device that it still belongs to you and can’t be reactivated without your password.
To put a device into Lost Mode, sign in to icloud.com/find from a Mac or PC or use the Find My iPhone iOS app.
For more information, read what to do if your device is lost or stolen.

My old computers broken so i want to update using another but im afraid of losing all apps, i get a message saying because this isnt my computer I can only transfer contacts and texts etc.

my old computers broken so i want to update using another but im afraid of losing all apps, i get a message saying because this isnt my computer I can only transfer contacts and texts etc. how can i make it copy everything?
cheers!

The iPhone is NOT a storage device so it does not support transferring it's data to another iTunes library. You can transfer purchased iTunes music and apps, but any music you ripped yourself or purchased from somewhere else cannot be transferred without purchasing some additional 3rd party product.
Certainly in this digital age, everyone is backing up their important data, right? You can take the backup copy of the data on your broken computer and load it into your new one.

I used to be able to sync my iphone with itunes, but now when I plug my iphone into my computer it no longer syncs or even shows the device icon. Could this be because I have an old iphone and it's not compatible with the latest version of itunes?

The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required.
If you cannot get this information from the seller
Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
You need to return the Device for a refund, as you will not be able to re-activate it.

What?
Try posting in your native language, the above makes no sense.

I changed from one iPhone to another and backed the first one up to the icloud. I have restored the content to my new iphone but cannot download the photos. Any advise will be greatly appreciated

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Photos and some other items are added back after the restore has completed, you may need to wait a while.

Is there any way I could use my own apple ID to buy in-app purchases even if I used my aun'ts apple ID to install the app?

I have an Apple Account registered in the U.S & no credit card linked (since im under 18). I always use my Aunt's account because I buy in-app purchases and other stuffs in the app store, I also used her account to download the app I play but she changed her password and gifted me a gift card to redeem in my own apple ID...
But whenever I wanted to buy something from the game it asks for her password and not mine, I changed the logged in apple account in the iTunes & Apple Store hoping not to re-install the app because I achieved so much in the game..

No, all apps are tied to the account that downloaded them, so only that account will be able to make in-app purchases within them - you would need to delete the game (which would also delete your progress/settings in it) and buy/download it with your account to be able to make in-app purchases with your own account.

How to purchase apps in App Store? When I am trying to buy those apps, it is asking for my card details. I have entered my debit card number and then it asked for 3 digit security code. I have entered cvv secure code but it is showing an invalid security

Debit cards are no longer accepted in the iTunes Store, it seems. The current valid payment methods are listed here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5552
You can try contacting the iTunes Store and asking if there is any way to use your card, but they probably will tell you that it's not possible.
http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
Using a debit card in any online service where it stores your card is a bad idea in any case since if someone gains access to your account in the service, they can quickly drain your bank account. Credit cards limit your liability, as do prepaid iTunes cards.

HT2515 I have iChat on an iBook G4, and I think it is a different way to make an account. Can someone tell me how to make an iChat account on an iBook G4??

Help!!

Hi,
From iChat 3 to iChat 6 and then Messages the basics have remained the same.
I have a G4 tower and it came with OX 10.2 and soon after that iChat was released in it's AV form (iChat2)
The Tower can run everything up to Leopard (OS X 10.5.8) and therefore iChat 4.0.9.
You haven't actually said which version you are running. (OS or iChat)
In the Applications folder you have highlight the app and then do a Get Info (Apple key + i key together ( or ⌘ + i) )
This will tell you the version of iChat you have.
If it is iChat 3 or 4 it will be able to join the AIM and the Jabber services.
As Starting point you can register for AIM names here.
You have to enter a real First and Last name and then Test a Screen Name and add and confirm a Password.
You will need to use a recovery email and list answers to Security questions for Password Recovery and the like.
Apple Isssued IDs can also be be valid AIM names but due to recent changes in Lion (iChat 6) and Messages there can be issues with using them in earlier versions.
If you have an @mac.com ID this will work in any version of iChat and Messages providing your password is 16 characters or Less (An AIM server limit)
In IChat 6 and Messages the iCloud Issued IDs are held on a different server and as a Check the application logs into AIM and to Apple. The login to Apple then lets AIM "read" the password.
These are the IDs ending in @me.com and @icloud.com (these will not work in iChat 5 or earlier)
SInce iChat 3 you can also use Jabber IDs.
GoogleMail IDs that have had the Talk option enabled (In Products) can be used as a Jabber ID (referred to as Google talk)
Facebook IDs that have had "Chat" enabled are also valid IDs
There are many other Jabber servers around the world.
These are an interlinked network of Private and Public servers.
Since iChat 4 the Adding of Googletalk IDs has had it's own selection (it is due to Google not following a general rule of thumb over server names)
Once you have an ID or screen name you want to set up then you need to do the following.
Open iChat.
Go to the iChat Menu > Preferences > Accounts
At the bottom of the list on the left click the + icon
In the new pane click the top item to show the drop down options.
Broadly speacking they are in two groups ("AIM" and "Jabber")
The AIM subset will likely offer you @mac.com, MobileMe and AIM
The Jabber Subset should offer Jabber and possibly Google depending on Version.
The MobileMe option will not work for @me.com addresses as these have moved server for Verification of the password.
As I said above the @me.com name and the @icloud.com names will not work in iChat 3, 4, or 5)
The @mac.com option should still work but if it does not (and your password is 16 characters or less) use the AIM option but enter the ID in full.
For Jabber IDs use the Jabber option.
In iChat 3 you need to use this for the GoogleTalk option.
Once you have clicked the Done button and the Buddy list has appeared for a Jabber list go to the server settings tab
Some Jabber servers use SSL (It will automaticaly change to port 5223)
Others do not (port 5222)
In iChat 3 change the Google Server name to talk.google.com
Summary
Get an Screen Name (AIM) of Jabber ID
Open the app and go to the Accounst part of the Preferences
Click the + icon
In the new pane select the most suitable option in the top item drop down.
Change server settings on Jabber accounts if required.
