    You should contact Apple by phone as soon as possible. You'll need to change your Apple ID and all passwords.

    The problem is that when I check "email authentication" to retrieve my password, they DON'T send me an e-mail. Also, when I check "Answer Security Questions" and I enter my birthdate (which is the same in all my e-mail ids), they tell me invalid birthdate. I have been trying this for a long time, there is no way I can retrive my password and a lot of my apps are linked with this id and because of  this issue, I'm not able to update them.

  • My iPod is dead and won't charge or connect to the computer. How can I fix this?

    My iPod is dead and won't charge or connect to the computer. How can I fix this? Before it died, it said I had a full battery whenever I charged it, but as soon as it came off of the charger, the battery level was always under ten per cent.

    Sounds like the battery needs to be replaced.

    Have you tried to reboot your router? Unplug it, count to 30, plug it back in and let it reboot. Also you may want to go into your settings on your iPad and 'reset network settings'.
    In case the update messed something up, letting the devices reboot sometimes helps.

  • I have a 3GS and find my pictures jumping up behind the header. How do I fix this?

    I have a 3GS and find my pictures jumping up behind the header. How do I fix this?

    Hi,
    First, close all the apps who are running in the same time.
    You can desactivate few "notification" who drain the battery so.
    You can put off the auto configure of the hour.
    You can turn off bluetooth or wifi or both when no using.
    I suggest you to disable the automatic sync with mail accounts and see if the problem goes away. Put in in manually.
    when you go away from the mail app, it is still trying to finish to sync even in sleep/lock mode and the battery is dead within hours. Also, you can close the mail app.
    In few weeks, an update will arrive with corrections.
    Have a nice day.

  • I just got my computer working again after 6 months of being without it, and now iTunes is saying it is not authorizable? How do I fix this?

    I just got my computer working again after six months of it being down. I have had it for almost five years and it has been synced with my iPhone as well. I'm trying to re-sync it now but it won't transfer purchases I've made from iTunes on my iPhone and wants me to authorize my computer. I try, and then it tells me my account is already on 5 computers (it is NOT) and that this computer cannot be authorized. HOW do I fix this???

    Log in to iTunes,  go to "view your account info" on the itunes store,  deauthorise all five, (Please Note: this can only be done Once every 12 months)  and then re-authorize your current Computers one at a time.

  • I bought a new computer and reinstalled my elements 12...when i first loaded it, it asked me to license or done...i accidently clicked done and now it won't run at all...how do i fix this...i keep uninstalling and reinstalling it and the editor side will

    so how do i fix this...i have reinstalled it many times now and even went and downloaded the 13 trial version just to do the project i was trying to work on...

    Once I clicked the Done button the program shut down.  So when I restarted it and clicked on editor, the timer thing happened on the editor side with the cursor timer also spinning for a few seconds and then both timer displays stopped and nothing happened.  I can click on the manage photos side and it opens and functions but not the editor.  There are no error messages.  I can uninstall the program and reinstall it and the exact same thing happens over and over.  Elements 13 loads and works perfect every time.  Maybe i'm missing something such as if I have a 32 or 64 bit system and which one i'm downloading because i had trouble finding the program to redownload.  Maybe if you just get me  alink to the american version of elements 12 32/94 bit version it will work great i bet that is the problem actually.  Because I originally did a trial version last year of 12 and then later bought it.  So if you can give me a link to download a good version of the program that might actually solve it.  Because if i have a 32 bit program download and my system is a 64 bit system...that might actually account for this issue...since after I downloaded it did not have a chance to run it and see if it worked...
