I have an older model of the ipod shuffle, we forgot the itunes login and pass so we created a new one. My question is how do we transfer that music that is on the shuffle to the computer? It will not let me do anything... The music titles are all dulled out, the only thing i can do is listen to them but I cannot do anything else.
Please help thanks!

You do not. Content is permanently tied to the Apple ID that it was acquired with.
Sign out of the computer with the new Apple ID. STOP using the new Apple ID.
Sign in with the original Apple ID that the content was acquired with.

No, you can't. If the device is in Activation Lock, you MUST use the Apple ID that was used to enable the Activation Lock. -

Hello brjdunn,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
You are able to change your Apple ID by following the instructions below. That way you will still have access to all of your previous purchases:

iTunes will not show my purchases before October 18, when I had a different username. How do I get the older purchases (more than 5,000) listed when my password is rejected and it won't issue a new one for that username?
Wow that was really quick, thank you so much. Im not sure at all which version it was because i said it was around 4 years ago he bought it. I know it isn't under his username, since he's a PC person (ugh) so i know its probably registered to one of our actual names. isn't there some way to look it up since we did register it, because I'm not even sure where the disks are from when we bought it (we've moved a lot and also have two storage lockers, i know i would have kept it with other disks) but my cd rom drive is actually broken on my computer as well ( i think it got stepped on and is now squished and won't eject or run disks.)
So is there anyway they can look up that its registered to one of our names since we did register it when we bought and installed it, or do i really have to find the disk with some sort of proof of purchase (i know there would be no receipt after all this time)
either way, ill do what you suggested to the best of my abilities and thank you so much for answering my questions, i can't even open the program as its incompatible and find out the info from that) so I'm in a bit of a pickle and your response was so thorough and it didn't seem to be posted long enough to even write a well researched response, thanks, all the best,

I have ad Apple ID on my iPad , when I use the apple on my iPhone for the first time, I put in my Apple ID for the iPad, didn't work. Need to create a new one. Why? How can I just use my iPad ID on my iPhone?
Hi kamfong,
Went to Settings where?
If you want to use your exisiting Apple ID on your iPad, you need to:
1. Go to Settings>iTunes & App Store and sign out the new ID, and then sign on the old one
2. Go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and delete the iCloud account, and the sign back onto iCloud using the old ID
You still have not indindated why you are saying that using your old ID originally "didn't work". What do you mean by that? Did you get some sort of error when you tried to sign on with your exisiting Apple ID?
Cheers,

This may be a silly question but how do I get my music from my old ipod to the Ipod touch. when I go to move my music a error pops up saying your music wasn't copied to this ipod because it can not be played on this ipod. what can I do??
You will need to do it using a third-party utility such as Phone to PC. Also, see:

My iphone is broken and i am getting a new one sent out. How do i get everything from my old phone copied to the new one so its exactly the same??
As long as they are already ticked in your iTunes then yes. Just to check do a sync and as long as everything stays the same you are good to go.

Clicking "Open a New Tab" button or "Ctrl+T" doesn't open a new tab any more. How do I get that functionality back?
When I click, type or use the File menu or try right-clicking mouse to open a new tab, nothing happens. However I am able to open links in a new tab.The Ask Toolbar is causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13+ versions. Evidently something in that extension isn't compatible with a Firefox security fix. Disable that extension or un-install it.
How do I "disable" or "un-install it"? -
My computers harddrive crashed and I had a new one put into my computer. I want to move my music from my i phone 5 to my computer but when I start to sync my music i tunes says that it is going to clear out the music on my phone. How can I get my music to my computer?
Hey there Noles Labelle,
It sounds like you have media on your phone that you want to transfer to your computer from your phone. You can transfer your iTunes Store purchases from your device to the computer with this article:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1848
If you want to transfer iTunes Store purchases from an iOS device or iPod to a computer, be sure to authorize the computer before connecting the device. To authorize, follow these steps:
Open iTunes.
From the Store menu, choose Authorize Computer.
In the dialog that appears, the Apple ID button is selected by default.
Enter your Apple ID and password, then click the Authorize button.
If the iTunes Store purchases on your device were purchased with multiple accounts, you will need to authorize the computer for each one.To transfer iTunes Store purchases from your device to a computer, follow these steps:
Connect your device to the computer. If it is synced with another iTunes library, the following dialog may appear:-
Click the Transfer Purchases button.
Important: Clicking Erase and Sync will delete any existing content currently on your device. The content will be replaced with whatever existing content is in the current iTunes library your device is connected to. If there is no content in the iTunes library, nothing will be synced to your device, and your device will be empty.
If you had content from sources other than iTunes that had been synced to your phone before, those will have to be re imported to iTunes from a backup with the following article if you have one:
iTunes: About the Add to Library, Import, and Convert functions

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

I purchased an upgrade for my OneNote app, how do I get that to transfer to my new iPad? I downloaded the app but the upgrade is not loaded on this new iPad.
One way is to open the App Store on your iPad and click the "Updates" link in the lower right. You should see OneNote there with a clickable "Download" button. Click the button and wait for the download and install to complete.

Help plz
ALL purchases are permanently associated with whatever Apple ID was used to originally obtain them. Apps can not be updated without knowledge of that ID and, more importantly, its password. Apple IDs can not be merged and purchases can not be transferred from one ID to another.

How do I get past the login screen to pair my new wireless keyboard and trackpad when the old ones are water damaged and don't work
Have you tried pulling the batteries out of the damaged ones so that they are completely off; then shutdown your Mac Mini via the power button on the back right. Turn on your new keyboard and trackpad then power your Mini back up? The auto detection should find your new keyboard and trackpad.

using Elements 11, can I get a plug in that supports both cameras, and still access my old raw 7.1 files
A new plug-in will support all the older cameras, so a plug-in that supports the newer 6D will also support the older 60D.
The 60D needs at least ACR 6.2.
The 6D needs at least ACR 7.3.
PSE11 ships with ACR 7.1 but can be updated all the way up to ACR 8.0.
What happens when you do a Help / Updates in the PSE Editor application?
