  • I have a known good apple id and password but when I try to update apps i am told incorrect password or id

    I have a known good apple id and password, but when I try to update apps I am told incorrect apple id or password through the iTunes store

    Probably because the Apps in question were originally downloaded using a different Apple-id.

  • I have changed both my ID and password, but when I try to download updates to apps, my old email account shows up and I can't sign in

    I have changed both my ID and password, but when I try to download updates to apps, my old email account shows up and I can't sign in

    That indicates that you have apps that need updating that were purchased with the account that comes up. When you have apps that need updating that were purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until all the remaining apps were purchased by one account.
    You have to log into the account that purchased an app in order to update it.

  • When I try to access files on my external hard drive on one macbook, it says I have insufficient access privileges. I use the external hard drive on my other macbook and it works fine. How can I fix this problem?

    I've tried looking the answer up on google, but I've come up empty handed. Do I need to change permissions somewhere? I've tried setting everyone to have read and write acess on both machines and that didn't work either.
    My macbook that works perfectly with the hard drive is running snow leopard. the other macbook is running leopard. i'm not 100% certain what brand my external is but it says firewire800/usb2.0 on it.
    i appreciate any help i can get!

    Me compre un ipod classic de 160gb cada vez que trato de ponerle musica de mi disco duro externo solo copia hasta 1500 canciones y luego me congela el Itune  y no lo puedo cerrar, me pide que restaure el ipod como de fabrica, lo hago y nada.  Trato de cerrar el programa de itune y no me deja, trato de apagar el computador y no lo puedo apagar,  he buscado para ver si tiene errores  el disco del Ipod y me dice que esta bien.  Lo he restaurado como 8 veces y le he puesto musica y videos pero siempre me borra todo.  He aplastado Menu y Seleccion para entrar al sistemade diagnostic o del ipod y le pongo el test manual donde entro al IO y me dice q todo esta bien.  Le he dado ya varios Format directamente desde el Windows 7 y nada tampoco, siempre me borra todo desde que pasan mas de 1300 canciones y me congeal todo el equipo.  Ya no se que pensar de esta compania Apple porque no da ninguna solucion ha este tema.

  • HT204053 I have iPad 2 and recently changed my Internet Service Provider and email address. I have created a new Apple I.D. and password but when I try to access or open my iPad 2 I am asked for the password for my previous email address.

    I have iPad 2 and recently changed my Internet Service Provider and email address. When I switch on the iPad I am asked for my password for
    my previous providerwhich when entered is not acceptable. I am told to create a new passord but this only changes the password for my current
    address. I am now unable to access iPad and I need to know how to circumvent this.

    Roger, thank you.  I wish I had sent out this question a month ago, when I committed the folly of creating another apple id with my alternate email address.  Since then, I had realized that I didn't seem to need it, hence today's post.
    So now what do I do?  Is there anyway to delete that unecessary apple id?
    And it is even worse than that...the secondary address listed currently in our apple id is a mobile me one that my husband created, but never uses, never checks, and probably doesn't even remember the password for.

    i can't activate my iPad and I'm sure i am using the correct apple id and password but when i press net it says it cannot be used to unlock this

    You can try to figure out which Apple ID/email address and/or password you used to activate it by going to http://iforgot.apple.com
    If you can't, you'll need to contact Apple Account Security with your proof of purchase. 

  • I changed my Apple ID and password, but when I attempt to update Apps I am prompted to enter my Password for my OLD Apple ID, and I am unable to override the Old Apple ID. How to proceed ?

    I changed my Apple ID and password, but when I attempt to update Apps I am prompted to enter my Password for my OLD Apple ID, and I am unable to override the Old Apple ID. How to proceed ?

    Delete everything bought with the old Apple ID and buy it again.
    Content and Apple IDs -
    Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with one Apple ID with a new Apple ID.

    On your mac/Win PC can you log into the iTunes Store with your Apple ID and password??
    Can you download one of the free songs/books/ videos (look under Free on iTunes)?

  • HT1391 I had all of my music on an external hard drive that failed. I have iTunes Match so all of my music was synced with the "cloud". How do I now download and save all of my music back down on a new external hard drive?

    I had all of my music on an external hard drive that crashed. I have iTunes Match so all of my music was synced in the cloud. How do I now re-load my music back down onto a new external hard drive?

    Hey Rbe58!
    I believe this question can be answered by the information in the following article:
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Access all your music anytime, anywhere with iTunes Match
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ph12492
    Play or download songs from iCloud
    You can play songs directly from iCloud, or you can download songs so you can play them when you’re not connected to the Internet.
    If a song is available in iCloud, it has a Download button next to it.
    To play the song, double-click it.
    To download the song, click the Download button.
    After you download a song to a computer, it remains in the computer’s iTunes library, even if you turn off iTunes Match.
    To only display downloaded songs in your iTunes library, choose View > Hide Music in the Cloud. This also hides any previous iTunes Store purchases you haven’t downloaded.
    For information about downloading and playing songs on an iOS device, see the documentation for the device.
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,
    Braden

  • When I try to access GameCenter on my Mac it says "The requested operation could not be completed due to an error communicating with the server." How can I fix this?

    When I try to access GameCenter on my Mac it says "The requested operation could not be completed due to an error communicating with the server." How can I fix this?

    This usually caused by a customised hosts file.
    These need to be the only entries in your /etc/hosts file:-
    # Host Database
    # localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
    # when the system is booting.  Do not change this entry.
    127.0.0.1       localhost
    255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
    ::1             localhost
    fe80::1%lo0     localhost
    Remove anything below these entries, then try and reconnect with GC. Once GC starts properly you can put the extra entries back in your hosts file, GC should start normally afterwards.

  • I redeemed a gift card, the amount shows up in the top right corner but when I try to purchase music it goes to the account that I have loaded. How do I use the gift card?

    I redeemed a gift card, the amount shows up in the top right corner of my account but when I try to purchase music it goes to the account that I have loaded previously. How do I use the gift card?

    If the amount of the purchase is close to $21.07, then you need to take into account taxes may be added.
    If you go beyond the credit from a gift card the balance will be billed to your credit card account.

  • I have just changed my user name and password but it has not changed for iTunes/ apple - any suggestions

    My iTunes user name is incorrect. I have recently changed it successfully but it hasn't changed for iTunes/apple. Any suggestions?

    If the old ID ("email address") is your ID, and if your new ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID.  Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.
