I just got an iPhone 5S. My Apple pswd works on my iPAD but I can't get iTunes apps to accept the same pswd and download apps to my new iPhone. What's wrong?

I got a new iPhone 5S. Trying to download apps and iTunes won't accept my password. The password works on my iPAD for installing apps so I know it's right.
Has anyone resolved this problem successfully?

Hey there xntricj,
It sounds like you are putting a password for your Apple ID that works without issue on your iPad into your iPhone but get a message saying that the password is incorrect. I recommend the steps from the article named:
iCloud: "Incorrect Apple ID or Password" alert when setting up iCloud after upgrading to iOS 7
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5207
After completing iOS 7 setup, go to Settings > iCloud.
Scroll down and tap Delete Account, then enter your previous Apple ID and password.
If your Apple ID or password are not accepted, follow the steps in iOS 7: If you're asked for your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

Why won't my new desk top accept my apple password ? I changed my password and it works on my ipad but I can't get it to accept on my new desktop computer.

my new desk top computer will not accept my password.. i reset my password and it accepted on my ipad but will not take on my desk top.. what can i do.. please help. thank you much

Forgive what may be a dumb question on my part, but you've confirmed that you're typing the Apple ID correctly? Any difference, even an extra space, will cause an error.
If that doesn't help, post back with full details about your setup and the problem, including any error message, and someone may be able to offer additional suggestions.
Regards.

I have problems updating my iphone 4 to ios 7.0.6. Everything seems ok, it is downloading, installing and restarting but it is still ios 7.0.4 on the phone. No error messages, everything seems ok. What is wrong?

I've never seen this. Try updating via iTunes on your computer. Plug it in and see if iTunes says it needs updating.
It worked via iTunes
Thank you

I need help. I hired two movies which are sitting on my iPad but I can't get them to play! Yes it sounds stupid but how do I get it to start. There are no button/icons anywhere

Vague.
You opened the videos app?
You selected the movie?

I just bought a new iPod and I have it set up the same as my other iPod but I can't get notification to show on the lock screen like my old one does. What can I do to fix this?

Hi.
What is the exact notification you are waiting? This could be possible that the device has already been opened once. Don't you think?

How do i get my iTunes library to be showing the same playlist and songs that are on my iPhone 4s.

How do I get my iTunes library to show the same playlist order and songs order as what is on my iPhone 4s.

Drag it to an external drive or directly to the other computer, and if needed, launch iTunes with the Option key held down and choose that library. If it contains rented movies, those won't play on the desktop Mac.

I pasted several chapters from another document with endnotes into a book document with pre-existing endnotes. Since I have numerous pages of the same endnotes and Pages software is uber slow. What do I do?

How do to combine documents both with endnotes? When I tried, I got multiple copies of the same endnotes and very slow word processing. thanks

If you are wondering why you are not getting any responses, it is because you have vented a complaint without any details that make any sense or give anyone something to work on.
If you want help, I suggest actually detailing what has happened, with versions of software etc. Anything that would let us assist.
As a start I am guessing that you have not really got the hang of "How it all works". Firstly download the Pages09_UserGuide.pdf from under the Help menu. Read that and view the Video Tutorials in the same place. A good addition would be the iWork 09 Missing manual book and something to help you learn how to use your Mac.
If there are specific tasks you need help with:

I've recently messed up my Mac OS X Lion by deleting Aperture, but I need to get my data out of the computer. And by the way, I've got an important project in Final Cut Pro X. Is there any way I can back it up (including fxs and positions of the clip) ?

Hello everyone
I've recently messed up my Mac OS X Lion by deleting Aperture, but I need to get my data out of the computer. I've tried to repair it using DU, but it said I needed to backup all my data and reinstall the OS. How do I backup my data to an external drive?
And by the way, I've got an important project in Final Cut Pro X. Is there any way I can back it up (including fxs and positions of the clip) ?
Hope you guys can help me!

You need to back up 2 folders, Final Cut Events and Final Cut Projects which by default are located on your Movies Folder. You can always check by clicking on a clip inside Fianl Cut X and selecting Show in Finder in the contextual menu for the selected clip.

A iPhone 4S (currently in possession of it) was dropped into the ocean and we can get it into DFU and recovery mode, but we can't get it to go to the lock screen or home screen the phone just gets stuck on the apple symbol, how can I fix this?

Hey, apparently this iPhone 4S was dropped into the ocean and the light for the camera and a light where the 3G/4G bar is are both glowing. The iPhone 4S, I assume, was on iOS 5.1.1 I need help getting off info from it WITHOUT RESTORING IT. I'm not sure if Apple has any third party apps that they are allowed to suggest to us or if I'm on my own on this one, but if you guys can help I would greatly apperciate it.
Thanks!

Those are definitely features of liquid damage. First step after completely drying the iPhone would be battery replacement. The camera circuitry and proximity sensor circuitry are surging because you are seeing these lights.
New battery may get this booted back up so you can recover data, or even get the iPhone working again.

It says i have bars, but i can't call, top up or text, all it keeps saying is error performing request, unkown request. what is wrong and what do i do

like it says in the title, I have a 3GS and i'm with O2, it is saying I have service/bars most of the time full bars, but when I go to text, call or even top up, it comes up with error performing request, unknown error. I can't receive calls or texts either, I can't use the phone side of my phone everything else like iPod, Internet etc is working fine, but nothing is working for my phone.
I've checked my sim card, I've made sure it is in properly, I've turned it off and on. nothing is working
what is wrong with my iPhone why is it not working, and how do I fix it.
Please someone give me some answers.
P.S. I have only had this phone for just over a year.

It sounds like an O2 problem, you'd have to get in contact with them on 0800 977 7337
Have you tried the SIM card in another phone?

I want to switch my main iCloud Apple ID account with another one, but to do that do I have to delete the account? and if I do delete the main account that the iCloud is on now, will it delete the whole account or will it just remove it from iCloud?

Im just curious as to whether i can delete the main iCloud Apple ID account with another one but if i delete it, will it delete that whole account or just remove it from iCloud?

Did you ever find an answer cuz I am curious too!

When I attempt to download from the app store, the wrong apple id pre-populates. How do I get the correct apple id to auto-fill so I can put in the right password and download apps?

When my wife bought this ipad 18 months ago, she (or the store) set up an Apple ID that had the extension @me.com. She never wrote down the password that was created. Neither of us knew how to change the password and retrieve or create the new one. When we started actually trying to download apps, this became a problem. She called customer support before the first year of ownership ended, and they created a new Apple ID. This ID works; we can go to the support site and log in with it, yada yada. However, when I go to the app store and want to get a new app or update an existing app, the Apple ID login field prepopulates with her original ID, which is no good to us. I can't find any way of putting in the new, valid Apple ID in this login field. Why doesn't the app store give me the option to change the Apple ID this device wants to use? How do I change this setting? I'm in a time crunch, and we need to be able to download and use a few apps for some business purposes.

settings -> iTunes & App Store
click on apple ID listed there
select Sign Out
sign in with the proper account
from then on, when the store ask for your password it should be with the correct ID
