i just got a new ipad 2 and i can't buy stuff on it asks for security question when my apple id was right why

It's a security feature that was brought in a few months ago - when you try to purchase something for the first time on a new computer or device then you will be asked for the answers to your questions (or to set them up if you haven't yet created them).

    Please Help!

    If you can't remember them then go to Express Lane  and select 'iTunes' from the list of 'products' in the middle of the screen.
    Then select 'iTunes Store', and on the next screen select 'Account Management'
    Next choose 'iTunes Store Account Security' and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
    You should get an email reply within about 24 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox)

  • Just got a new Ipad and can't get computer to recognize it.

    I just got a new Ipad and when I hook it up to the computer it does not show up on my desktop or in itunes. And on the ipad screen it still is asking me to plug in the USB. I have tried 3 different ports, restarting both the computer and Ipad with no luck. Any suggestions?

    I did not want to start a new msg so I will just comment on the iPad cover interfering with the keyboard connector. I like to leave the Apple case on all the time. Then I can just pick it up and go. I was a little disappointed when I tried to connect with the case on and had to take it off. I took a razor blade to the bottom of the case and cut out a section large enough to fit over the connector. It worked fine.

  • HT4759 I just got a new IPAD and transferred everything through the cloud from my old IPAD2. The new one says "this IPAD is currently being restored. It has been that way for about 2 hours. Also, I books will open and then close right away with no content

    I just got a new IPAD and transferred everything through the cloud from my old IPAD 2. The new one says "this IPAD is currently being restored. It has been that way for over two hours. Also, I Books opens and then closes right away with no content. Does it take this long, or is there an issue?

    I also tried manually underlining a few things on the new iPad and when highlighting a paragraph, it would skip a few lines and the line would go through a few as well. Looks like a major iBooks glitch needs to be addressed here.

  • My Ipod was originally set up as a sub-account of a firends.  After that, I got an Iphone and set up my own Apple account.  I just got a new Ipod, and now can't sync my old Itunes to it. Can anyone help me? I'm even OK with deleting the old Itunes account

    My Ipod was originally set up as a sub-account of a firends.  After that, I got an Iphone and set up my own Apple account.  I just got a new Ipod, and now can't sync my old Itunes to it. Can anyone help me? I'm even OK with deleting the old Itunes account, and staring over.  I just really want to get the new Ipod under my own account, and be able to use it...

    There is no such thing as a "sub-account."  Also, you probably mean iTunes library, when you say "account."  Your "account" in iTunes is your Apple ID, which is what you use to sign in to the iTunes Store to make purchases.  iPods are associated with an iTunes library, not with an Apple ID (iTunes Store account).  You'll need to clarify...
    So, this is what I think you are saying.  You previously shared an iTunes library on a computer with your friend.  Your old iPod was synced to that iTunes library. 
    You got an iPhone, and at that time, you set up your own iTunes library.  Is that on a different computer?  How does the iPhone affect your question about the iPod?
    You got a new iPod.  What is your "old iTunes"?  Is that the iTunes library you shared with your friend?

  • I just got the new itunes and I can open itunes and see my music but whenI try and go to the itunes store it just loads to a white page. I try and refresh and go to the home page and nothing happens. I can sign into my account and the tabs for the itunes

    I just got the new itunes and I can open itunes and see my music but whenI try and go to the itunes store it just loads to a white page. I try and refresh and go to the home page and nothing happens. I can sign into my account and the tabs for the itunes store pop up like they normally would when browsing the itunes store but when I click on one of them, it is a blank page. Is there a setting I need to change? Does it just take an extremely long time to load? Please help!!

    Bucktr09:
    I'm having the exact same problem.  I upgraded to the newest version of iTunes on my iMac and ever since I did the store is a blank white screen.  I can get my library content but the store is a no go.  Is there any one out there with a solution?

    I have a new ipad and want to restore my old..it asks for my ipad password.
      How do I find the ipad password?

    What password are you refering to? A passcode lock on the ipad itself or the password for your apple id?
    If its a pascode lock, then:

    iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad

    If its your apple id, then:

  • I just got a new ipone5c and i can't get the light to go out unless I turn it off. Have tried all the things I read anyone out there that can help me??

    I just got a new iphone 5c this is my first smart phone. I have an Ipad so thought it would be easy.
    I downloaded the new software don't know if this changed anything. I have only had phone for 4 days
    but now the light won't shut off. I have to turn off the phone for it to go out. I did the holding down home
    button and start button till apple shows up. I checked to make sure the LED flash for alerts button was off.
    I don't know what else to do. Anyone out there have the same problem and have found an answer.
    Thank you!

    After powering the iPhone off and on, the light goes out but turns back on randomly or immediately after powering the iPhone on?
    Since nothing else you have tried has resolved it, try restoring the iPhone with iTunes from the iPhone's backup first.
    If no change after that, try restoring as a new iPhone or not from the backup.
    If no change after that, the iPhone has a hardware problem.
    Call AppleCare or make an appointment at an Apple Store if there is one nearby.

  • I just got a new itouch and i can't get imessage or facetime to work on my home network

    I just got a new itouch 4 and i can't get imessage and facetime to work on my home wifi network (Airport Express). I can't explain it. The itouch works fine otherwise uncluding the internet. Facetime and imessage work at the apple store so there must be something wrong with my home network. Please help if you can!
    iPod touch, iOS 5.0.1

    I changed the DNS to 8.8.8.8 as you suggested with no success, I even tried 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4 as suggested by others with no success either.  When I try and activate iMessage or Facetime, I still get the same message "could not sign in, please check your network connection".  The internet and Mail work perfectly fine on the iPod touch so the WiFi signal IS going through.  I am at a loss, any other suggestions would be more than welcome. Thanks!
