I recently updated my older Dell Inspiron, and cannot get tunes I purchased with old email addresses to play.

Need help. Recently updated a Dell Inspiron with Windows 7. Now, I am "not authorized" to play songs I previously purchased with earlier email addresses. I can play all that I downloaded from discs, just not the ones I purchased.

Select Store > Authorize this computer.
If the menu is not displayed, Cntrl + B will display it.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

I have a new MacBook Pro with OS10.8.2 and cannot get Contacts to print a list of addresses with pictures showing. There is a check box selecting "picture" which has been checked - but no picture. This worked fine on OS10.7.5. Problem??

First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
Reset the System Management Controller.
If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

I cannot play some songs on itunes, I get a prompt for an old email address which not longer exists and I don't know the password. HOw can I get them authorized to my new email address and password?

I cannot play some songs on itunes, I get a prompt for an old email address which no longer exists and I don't remember the password. How can I get these tunes transferred to my new email address and password?

In one of the help pages for managing your Apple ID (http://support.apple.com/kb/HE40), it shows two separate sections, one for Apple ID and one for Primary Email address. When I go to manage my Apple ID, I see only a single section for both. Can the two be 'separated', especially when you face the situation of having to discontinue your email address for some reason?
I also noticed that when navigating to Apple ID Support Communities, it shows my nickname 'dishdy'. How and when did I insert this? In the current sequence for creating an Apple ID I don't see this. In my current profile I don't see this.
In any case, I have freed myself from my previous Apple ID (@artemis.it) on my iPhone.
Thanks for your help.

I use the older style firefox and cannot get the password manager to remember one of my passwords, how do I do this

I use the older style Firefox browser and cannot get the password manager to remember one of my main site's password. how can I do this?

The website may be using autocomplete=off to prevent Firefox from saving the name and password.
You can remove autocomplete=off with a bookmarklet to make Firefox save the name and password.

Itunes account with old email address and now I can't get access to music?

Hi. I set my itunes up years a go on an old work email address,now my apple ID is a different personal email address. When I got my new iphone, the apple ID is my personal email address so my itunes account is now not linked. If I change my appleID on the phone I can see my music but then all my apps etc are all on my new apple ID and not my old email address! Hopefully that makes sense?!
How do I get all my music from my old itunes account on to my new phone with a new apple ID?

another user faced a similar issue you should try reading the solution given here

I have some apps with old email address so can't update..what can i do

I cant update some apps as hey have an old email address no longer in use. How can I solve this?

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 another Apple ID with a new ID. You need to revive the old Apple ID by changing the email address associated with it;

I just used the "find my apple id" and it has an id to my old email address problem is when i try to login to hotmail with that account it says the email address doesn't exist..and this is affecting my application updates and purchases.

Please help!
I dont know how the email address doesnt exist and how it can still be an apple id but not let my access my purchases or update old appplications
thanks,
Kiah.

Hey Chris, thanks for your reply.
The problem is that i have 2 apple Id's now and i used on to purchase my macbook pro a few years back and then i created a new one for my new macbook.. i was trying to update my iphoto and imovie but it kept saying i couldnt update it as it was purchased under a different id, and seeing though i cant get into my old account i cant update what i need to. i know the password for the old one as my brother still uses it but it wont work now as hotmail says the email doesnt exist.
in saying that i dont think i can get into the old account and change the email address

I have updated my apple I'd and password on some of my products. I cannot remember how I deflected my original I'd and I am unable to delete my old email address I'd from my other apple products to allow me to use and access my original products

Can anyone help? Some time since I cancelled my initial apple Id and then set up a new one using my new email address. I still possess an iPad and iPhone which have the original email address registered on them. As this account is deleted I am now unable to access any app updates or make any purchases from these products. Can anyone please advise me how to delete the stored original email address from these two products so I can enter my new email address and new password so that and access the facility.
Another thought is would it be possible to use my daughters email address and a new password on these products but I'm wondering if that then means that she would have to repurchase apps or if there is any way we could both access these whilst retaining some privacy over individual phone/ipad content?

In short, you have a problem we can't solve.
I suggest you contact Apple support and make an appointment to get help. Expect to pay for it.

I am trying to update my apps n all of a sudden it changed to my old email address how can I change my email on this iPhone so I can update my apps it all of a sudden did this thanks

I Am trying to update my apps on my iPhone and it wouldn't let me and it had my user id as my old email from an old acct that I do not have anymore how do I change it back so I can down load my apps thanks

You cannot, all content is tied to the Apple ID used to obtain them.
Content from one Apple ID cannot be merged or transferred to another Apple ID.
You need to recover your Apple ID for updates.

When initially entering a website password FF ASKS "SAVE PW FOR THIS SITE?" I have now CHANGED the website PW, and cannot get FF to "forget" the old PW and then save the new one!

I changed my GMail password the other day. I now have to type it in every time I access my mail as I cannot get Firefox (v.3.6.3) to ask me "Remember PW for this site?" (as it always AUTOMATICALLY does when FIRST entering a website password). Why does FF not automatically offer the "Save PW?" option AGAIN when one CHANGES the access PW of a site previously visited? Can one "force" a password to be remembered?

If the name stays the same and you only need to change (update) the stored password then fill the name in the login form and let Firefox fill the wrong password.
You may have to press the Tab key to fill the password field.
If you replace the wrong password with the new password then Firefox should offer to store the new password.
Use the ''Remember Password'' bookmarklet on websites that use "autocomplete=off" to prevent Firefox from saving passwords.
You can verify that Firefox has stored the new password: Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: "Saved Passwords" > "Show Passwords"
If that didn't work then remove that name and password and Firefox should offer to save the new password on the next visit or if you refresh the login page.

Okay so I associate the e-mail address as the apple ID and that seems to be a wrong assumption. I did go to my Apple ID and changes the e-mail address and the password but for the same and only Apple account I have ...
That is good. In that case, your one and only account has not changed, just the login credentials you use for it. All your previous purchases will remain associated with that account, and the new login.
In essence, an AppleID is an email, but it has two parts. One is the login email address and password everyone traditionally thinks of as an AppleID. But that in turn is linked to an account with Apple. As long as you use the manage Apple ID portal to just change the email address and/or password for your exisiting AppleID, then the internal account tracks along with those changes as well.
However, on your iOS devices, you will need to log out and then log back in with the new login credentials:
settings -> iTunes & App Stores - tap your AppleID, and choose log out. Then log back in with the new email address and new password.

I recently updated my older Dell Inspiron, and cannot get tunes I purchased with old email addresses to play.
