I followed the steps to restore to factory settings now I can't get back my info from a prior backup. My pads screen was frozen on the connect to iTunes I needed to restore. I had to setup my pad as if it was new. How do I acess my prior backup

Once again, KP is correct, but I just want to add that if you don't see the backup in the drop down menu on the summary page of iTunes when you choose the restore from backup option, then the backup is unfortunately gone. If you backup your computer, the iPad backup should probably be in that computer backup. I use Time Machine with my MacBook Pro and can access backups from months ago.
On a side note, I also archive backups from time to time. If you right click on a backup name in iTunes>Edit>Preferences>Devices (Windows) or iTunes>Preferences>Devices (Mac) you can save that backup or archive it. It will be date and time stamped. I have no idea why I do this to the degree that I do it, but I probably have 12-14 iPad backups archived in iTunes.

I have a MacBook in Japan. I had to reinstall my system using an older version of the disc that came with my computer because I was locked out and now I can't get back any of my purchased applications, not any of the software updates. On my account it shows the purchases. How can I get them back? None of the websites, such as iTunes seem to explain that...
Thank you in advance,

Go to an Apple store or authorized Apple service provider.

The activation servers are probably overloaded with everyone trying to update to iOS 7 today. You might need to wait and try again later.

Make the iTunes window wider.
It is on the far right.

I muted the sound while playing angry birds and now I can't get the sound back. I have the sound on ipod, just not with the games.

I muted the sound while playing angry birds and now I can't get the sound back. I'm fine with ipod, just the games

If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

Trying to do restore to factory settings as Apple asked me to yet it says it will take 13 hrs!!! *** any help plz or ideas

If you go to Settings do you see an entry for the Nike app? There is no way to delete or hide that app?
Have you tired using the Spotlight search? Maybe you just can't find it.
Next would be to restore a gain. First from backup then next to factory settings/new iPod.
The Nike app you can download/install
Nike+ Running for iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch (3rd generation), iPod touch (4th generation), iPod touch (5th generation) and iPad on the iTunes App Store
Does work on the iPOd. You just do not get all the information that GPS/cellular connection can get. You will still be able to get distance/footstrikes like the installed app an you do not need the shoe sensor.. It uses the built-in sensors on the iPod

I just pressed the wrong button to erase of my IMac, how can I get back all information from my computer ?

I just pressed the wrong button to erase of my iMac, how can i get back all information ?

Possibly through a data rescue service (can cost a four-figure amount) if you didn't have an external backup.
But you must stop using that Mac immediately, or your data will be over-written.

Restored iPhone Factory settings, now computer goes haywire

I just received a new iPhone for the holiday, and I've updated iTunes and everything needed for it to sync with my computer. The person who gave it to me as a gift had already changed the name and put some files on it during the activatino process, and to be sure everything was in order. I wanted to personalize it myself, so I restored the factory settings, which took about ten minutes to complete. As soon as it completed, my computer restarted without any warning, and I figured that was normal. Everytime I restarted Windows with the iPhone already in the dock, the computer would suddenly restart as soon as iTunes tried to read it. It did this a couple of times, so I removed the iPhone, and everything was working normally, until I placed it back in the dock, which made the computer restart again. I've used Google desperately searching for some insight on this problem, and haven't found anything close. I attempted to call Apple, but unfortunately they're closed for the holiday, and I will have to try again tomorrow. I'm too impatient, so now I'm coming here to see if anyone can offer any help about this. Thanks in advance.

This happened to me once when i plugged my iphone into my computer after i had turned on one of my externel drives that i normaly have turned off. What was happening was when i plugged in the iphone it was trying to use the same drive letter as the external drive. Once i turned off the external drive i had no problems so you might be having a driver conflict. Hope this helps.

I made my main account a parental control account and when I accessed the account created as admin, at the Parental Control options I deleted my main account and now I can't get back in it. I need help with this problem.

I made my administrator account a parental control account, at the time of creating it, the system asked for my administrator password, to restart the computer, and the new account was created. When I accessed that account at the parental control menu I could see my main account on the list and i deleted the account from that list, and now i'm trying to get back to it but I'm not able to because every time i restart the computer brings me back to the account I created. I searched for help on the web and it says to go to users and select the account I want to restore but I can't do it. Please help.

Try downloading a free app from the App Store. I don't understand why, but this seems to solve the problem.

I upgraded Firefox a few months back and rebooted. Now I can't get back into firefox b/c the "reboot now" window keeps on coming back and won't let start the firefox app. How do i fix this?

I get the following error:
Your computer must be restarted to complete a previous upgrade of Firefox. Do you want to reboot now?
I will reboot but the following message keeps on popping up when I try to start Fireofox. How can I fix this?

You can undo your permission changes. Probably the most relevant one is cookies. Try one or both of these methods:
(1) Page Info > Permissions tab
While viewing a page on the site:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Permissions
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Permissions
(2) about:permissions
In a new tab, type or paste '''about:permissions''' and press Enter. Allow a few moments for the list on the left to populate, as this information needs to be extracted from a database.
Then type or paste ''rcn''' in the search box above the list to filter it to the most relevant domains. When you highlight a domain, you can adjust its permissions in the right pane.
Any luck?

I changed the email address for my Apple ID, now I can't sign back into anything.

I am in the process of changing email addresses and today I changed the email address on my Apple ID account but some of my decices won't recognize the new information. Specifically my ICloud account is still trying to use my old Apple ID and the password for that doesn't work anymore. Any thoughts?
Thanks

Hi Timothy Kolk,
Did you create a new Apple ID or rename the old one?
Either way, since the Apple ID can be used in many places, check out this article for help changing it in all the right places.
