I'm having trouble downloading an update to my MacBook Pro. It comes up with my husband's name even though the MacBook is registered under my name and I have my own ITunes acct.  how do I get his name off the ITunes update on my Mac

I'm trying to download an automatic update from ITunes but when I click on "Update" it comes up with the message, "You have updates available for other accounts" an tells me to sign in to my husband's account, even though the MacBook is registered in my name and I have my own ITunes account.  My husband has his own MacBook and ITunes acct. How do I fix?

  • In iTunes 11 how do you get Genius recommendations from the iTunes store

    In iTunes 11 how do you get Genius recommendations from the iTunes store. It would appear that I can only get Genius recommendations from my own library. This was easy in iTunes 10 and enabled me to find lots of good artists I had never heard of.

    I have this same question and all I have found on it is this,
    http://ipod.about.com/od/advanceditunesuse/ss/genius_store.htm
    Basically it seams they got rid of the whole side bar concept of things to make it all more streamline, understandable but I know atleast for myself that genius sugestion for any song is how I found new artists and songs I never knew existed.
    If you go to the Album the go to "In the Store" it will give you a recomendation for that album... not exaclty what you might be looking for but atleast its something, if anyone else has a way to get genius sugestions for individual songs I am all ears and would love to hear about it.

    Contact iTunes store support and request for a refund:

    They may also need your order numbers so it's best you get them ready.
    You can find your order numbers on your email receipts and in your Purchase History. If you need to review your Purchase History, follow the steps in this article:

  • How do I get my code off my iTunes card, if its been scratched off?

    How do I get my code off my iTunes gift card, if the code was scratched off????????? Please someone give me some feed back! This is my 100th time trying to get an answer.

    If your talking about the actual number that has been scratched off then toss it, it's now just a piece of plastic with some pretty writing on it. That number is what gives it value, with out it Apple wouldn't know what to do with it.
    Try here for more answers possibly.
    You might try e-mailing Apple directly and asking them as this is just a user to user forum, Apple just hosts it, they don't participate.

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping.  Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
    In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
    Would you mind telling me which anti-virus package you use? It may be that it is disturbing iTunes when it tries to write out the fresh database, as it does after almost any activity with your library. I'm noticing more of this type of problem than usual and trying to see if there is any pattern. It may help to prevent a repeat of the problem if you look at the advanced options for your AV package and see if you can find a way to exclude the iTunes folder from any real-time scanning process.

    Hi All,
    I did the last update, there was a 'catastrophic failure' i had to restore my iPhone and now have lost all my apps, how do i get them back? Any ideas?
    Thanks

    All of  your apps should be in iTunes on the computer, simply sync them back.
    If they are not, go into the purchase history and download them again.

    Hi jt - Alex was actually referring to video clips in iPhoto not appearing in the item "iPhoto Videos" in the Events Library in iMovie - thanks for your post though (the 2 words are very similar).

    My phone was stolen.  How can I get my photos off the iCloud with Snow Leopard.

    Welcome to the Apple Community
    You can't, if the photos are in photostream you need a compatible device, if they are in a backup, you can only use the backup to restore to a new device.

  • Hi. I have temporarily moved away from home. I am using a different internet connection, and I have lost my bookmarks. How do I get them back?

    Hi. I have temporarily moved away from home. I am using a different internet connection, and I have lost my bookmarks. How do I get them back?

    Generally speaking, your bookmarks are private to your computer, and if you set up multiple Firefox profiles on your computer, to the one profile.
    Your bookmarks might be available to you at another location if you used the Sync service. In order to connect a new computer to the Sync service when you aren't near your old computer, you need a recovery key. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/share-bookmarks-tabs-and-more-your-other-computers#w_what-if-im-not-near-my-first-computer
    If you didn't use Sync or can't access your account, someone with access to your old computer could email you your bookmarks. Since there is a range of different ways to do that and the best choice might depend on what you can expect the person you ask to be able to do... could they start up Firefox in your profile and follow menu steps to export a file? Could they drill down into a hidden folder on the system, zip a file, and mail that to you? Etc.
