I have lost my old itunes account as it had an gmail address which has been deleted by google, the rescue email address is also no longer valid

i am unable to locate my old itunes account. I save music from my own collection and purchased tracks from itunes. i believe the account was using an old gmail account which has been deleted by google as it was inactive for a period of time. the rescue email address is also not obsolete. Is there anyway of tracking down my old account either by creditcard number or home address? i have not been able to get music on any of my devices, ipad 2 or my iphone 5. really need some help as this has been like it for several months.. probably a couple of years if i thnk about it.

Not if you first do a sync and have iTunes make a backup. However, if your only copy of the iTunes data is in the Touch, then you need to first copy the data to a new iTunes Library using third-party software such as Phone To Mac.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Start here (change country if necessary) and navigate to 'Password and Security', reset your security questions using the link provided, you will receive an email to your rescue address, use the link in the email and reset your security questions.
If that doesn't help, you don't receive a reset email or you don't have a rescue address, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple throughiTunes Store Support.

Hi I have an old fsnet email address which has been blocked. How do I unblock it

I have an old freeserve email address which has been blocked. This has happened before and I just contacted Orange (took over Freeserve) and then it was released to e again.
How do I do that now that EE have taken over Orange.
My old email s [email protected]

It makes no diif that EE has taken oven Orange. EE still handles all the email domains back to Freeserve ones.
Are you logging in here: http://email.orange.co.uk/ ?
You need to contact EE to unblock it. There is a so-called "email" form that you can use for BB: https://explore.ee.co.uk/broadband/email-us . Also see below in my sig.

I have a ipad which has been locked due to the owner claiming it was lost. I have had the serial no. checked and it is not stolen but I can't use it.

i have a ipad which has been locked due to the owner claiming it was lost. I have had the serial no. checked and it is not stolen but I can't use it. I have talked to the owner many times who refuses to give me the password or has no idea what password was used.

Unfortuinately there is nothing that can be done.
If its locked its locked. This is a theft deterrant mechanism.
If you could unlock "stolen" ipads then there would be no purpose for the feature.
You will have to convince the owner you bought it correctly, or accept its no lonnger usable by you until the original owner removes the lock.

How do I swap payments from one account to another. I've managed to block one of my iTunes accounts due to not knowing security questions. However I have 40£ on old iTunes account and now want it on my new account?

I have £40 on my old account but want to put it on my new account. So I don't lose the money. Can't so it very frustrating.

You can't transfer an acocunt's balance to another account.
You might be able to re-enable that account via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
You might then need to log out of your account on your iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Store on iOS 6+) and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it
For the security questions, if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page should let you reset them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 (you can also use this link i you can't get your account enabled via the above)
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

HT201363 I have never seen the rescue email address i don't know what it is!

Okay so my apple id has asked me to verify my security questions, i made the id so long ago that i can't remember the questions! i was going to send it my my rescue email but i dont know what the email is and i have never seen the email address before! Is there a way that i can get a new rescue email address!? Thanks in advance!

Not without correctly answering two of the questions. You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

I deleted my Firefox Sync account at one point, but would like to create a new one using the same email address. Is this possible?

I had a Firefox Sync account a while back on an email address and then I deleted it. Now I want to use Firefox Sync again. I had forgotten that I deleted my account, but after trying to send password reset emails to that address and failing to receive them I can only conclude that the email is still on record in Firefox Sync, even if the account has been deleted.
Is it possible for me to set up a new account using this email address? Trying to set it up through Firefox tells me that the email address is in use, when from my point of view it is not.

Strangely enough, sending the email from account.services.mozilla.com did the trick this time! Thanks.

I have a huge iphoto library and an HP simple save hard drive which has been mac formated.

the discssion board states to close iphoto, go to folders, locate, click and drag library to new location (ie-my HP simple save which has been formated to mac) When I look in my libraries, I have several for libraries, including some that say 6.
When I open one, not all my photos are contained, only a part of my entire iphoto library
which one do I use--and how can to confirm that ALL my photos are on my external hard drive?
thank you for your help---
[email protected]

Open a Finder Window and go to your Username then to the Pictures folder. In there you will find a file, actually a folder but I won't get into that, called "iPhoto Library.photolibrary". It is that files (Folder listed as a Package) you need to Copy to your external drive.

HT204053 I changed my Apple ID (email address) to a new Apple ID (email address), but my iPhone is asking for my password on my old email address which has been discontinued, now I can not get into iCloud or add Apps because the old email and password do

I recently changed my Apple ID (to my new email address), but my iPhones are still showing my old Apple ID and are asking for my old password. It no longer exists and now I can not add any Apps or get into iCloud because they previous ID no longer exists but that is what is popping up in Apple ID box and I cannot change it on the phone. How do I get my new Apple ID assigned to my phone(s)?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If it's iCloud that is asking for these details:
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.
This article provides more information about Activation Lock.
If it's iTunes asking for these details:
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.
