I have a computer lab that is tied to my personal Apple ID, I need to change them over to a different Apple ID (school Apple ID). How do I do it & still keep my old ID? They are all iMacs & some are on Maverick & some are on Yosemite. Some have Final Cut Pro that has a ID from a teacher that is no longer here. They all need to be standardized to the school apple ID.

I hope you have Apple Remote Desktop, otherwise you have a lot of work to do.
Use Terminal to look for app store receipts…
sudo find /Applications -path "*Contents/_MASReceipt/receipt" -print | sed 's#.app/Contents/_MASReceipt/receipt#.app#g'
/Applications/Apple Configurator.app
/Applications/Install OS X Mavericks.app
/Applications/iPhoto.app
or search the entire disk…
sudo find -x / -path "*Contents/_MASReceipt/receipt" -print | sed 's#.app/Contents/_MASReceipt/receipt#.app#g'
-x stops find crossing into other disks (via /Volumes).
Note you will probably need the second version since users may have installed apps in their user accounts (~/Applications is a legitimate place to store them).
You need to use sudo in an admin account otherwise find will throw a lot of permissions denied errors (harmless, but you may miss apps in restricted directories).
You probably can arrange those apps into a report for making a script to 'rm -rf' those apps. I don't know how you can read the original owner - it would be good to avoid deleting apps that don't belong to an incorrect account, since you will need to reinstall them.
Apple do have a volume licensing program, I'm not sure how good it is. It wasn't available here when I needed it.
If you don't have ARD setup, make a script & carry it around on USB, login as admin, enter admin password to run script, & wait for deletion to complete…

Hello 23435,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that your iPhone was knocked out of your hand and now it displays blue and black colors on the display. It does sound like this iPhone may need to be evaluated for service. If you would like more information about this process, please refer to the attached web link below.

You don't mention anything about the music files on your computer that were used to copy into iTunes. If you have moved those files to a different location on you PC you will get that error message from iTunes. This is because iTunes will look for the music files in the original location that they came from on your PC when they were copied. If this is the case you have to tell iTunes to look in the new location for the music files or move the music files back to the original location.

Unfortunately, you must restore it in iTunes on your computer. There is no way to retrieve a forgotten pass lock code.
You will need to Restore your device from the same computer that you most recently synced to. See - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414.

I have Video camera movies that are HD format.. I am doing editing work on them using Final Cut Pro, but using DV PAL format for the projects I am editing. When I then tried to copy my work done in FCP Project that's originally DV PAL , into a new FCP Pro

I have Video camera movies that are HD format.. I am doing editing work on them using Final Cut Pro, but using DV PAL format for the projects I am editing. When I then tried to copy my work done in FCP Project that's originally DV PAL , into a new FCP Project that is HD, and tried reconnect media with original HD movies (video), the sequence project got distorted for all the text, shapes used and all.. everything changed its orientation and scale.. Is there a way by which I can preserve my work done on DV PAL and switch it preserving its proportions, scale and orientation, but on a HD project sequence?? Appreciate your help and advice..

Yes. A couple of ways that might work.
First Way
What you need to do is load one of your hd clips in the viewer and edit into a new HD sequence. Does it display correctionly?
OK, select the clip in the hd timeline and copy (command-c). Now go to the HD sequence with the material that's distorted. Select all (command-a) and paste attributes (option-v) and choose basic motion and distort. That should maek things work. What won't work is anything that you've adjusted as far as basic motion or distort in your PAL sequence. That I'm pretty sure you'll have to redo.
Second Way.
Choose your original PAL sequence and do a Media Manage changing the sequence preset to the appropriate HD paramenters with the media offline. You then should be able to reconnect these clips with your original HD media.

What is the best charging cable for the iPad Air (that is not made by Apple)? I need a long cable (over 6ft or more). I also need the cable to be of high quality and the cord part of the cable to be made of strong material.

What is the best charging cable for the iPad Air (that is not made by Apple)? I need a long cable (over 6ft or more). I also need the cable to be of high quality and the cord part of the cable to be made of strong material. Apple does not make one this long. Is there a cable out there that is sturdy like this and is safe to use?

yes, but I'm trying to use my iPad to type notes (using pages) and I have the smart case which I use as a stand. I need a cable long enough to fit through the back of my desk and the charging brick for the iPad won't fit behind the desk. I have to put it on the floor and then the apple cables aren't long enough to reach.

I have a dual boot lab that I set up for a school. The partitions consist of Mountain Lion OSX and Windows 7 Ent. I use bootpicker software for choosing the operating system at startup. When I select the windows partition, it take just under 2 minutes from selection to the windows login screen. It seems to take incredibly long for the mac to "shut down and hand over the operating system to windows.
Do you have any suggestions on how to get this timing faster?
Thanks for any ideas/input

The only suggestion I can make is to look ar ReFind (previuosly ReFit). Startup mamangement is one of its features.
But
It is very powerful so test it for yourself before deploying it. Some of the functions are best kept out of the hands of the curious, or 'playful'
And you never answered this question.
Tell me what the needs are, do the users always need to choose Windows or is this a variable?

I have a work email that gets forwarded to my personal email

I have a work email address that forwards mail to my personal email, when i reply how do I insert the work email address into emails as that being the sender?

When replying, tap the "Cc/Bcc,From" section, then tap on "From:" If you have multiple e-mail accounts set up on your iPhone you can select which one you want the reply to come from.

I have more than one apple id and need to coordinate them

I have more than one Apple ID and cant coordinate them over my devices

That's correct. They cannot be merged nor terminated. You can stop using them. Note that anything you purchased (free or paid) is permanently connected with the Apple ID used to purchase those items. Only Apple has the ability to make those changes, so you would need to ask them for help.

HT2204 I have two accounts and I have apps on one that I want to download to new iPad. How do I switch over? Thx

I have two accounts ant I want them together so I can have all my apps I have downloaded. Can someone explain how I switch over when in the app store. Thx

You can't currently combine accounts or transfer/copy content from one account to another, content will remain tied to the account that originally downloaded/bought it.
You can log out of the currently logged in account on the iPhone by tapping on the id in Settings > Store and you can then log in with a different account. But if you turn on automatic downloads for an account and/or download a previous purchase for that account then you will tie the iPhone (and the same applies to your computer if you do the same on that) to that account for 90 days : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627
