I registered my new iPhone 5s to my usual Apple ID, however it isn't showing in my devices when I log in. I tried to register it by adding a new device, but it tells me it's already registered to a different Apple ID. I'm really not sure how to fix this.

I registered my new iPhone 5s to my usual Apple ID, however it isn't showing in my devices when I log in. I tried to register it by adding a new device, but it tells me it's already registered to a different Apple ID. I'm really not sure how to fix this. I only have the one Apple ID and the phone is brand new, purchased directly from Apple.
When I check on the phone itself (iCloud and App Store settings) the Apple ID is correct. I'm not sure where else to check.
Whilst setting up the phone, it prompted me to register, which I did. Then when connecting to my laptop through iTunes it prompted me again so I registered again. I even got a confirmation email to the email address associated with my Apple ID that the registration was successful.
How can I add my iPhone 5s to the list of devices on the correct Apple ID?
Thanks in advance for any advice.

When I turn on my iMac, it shows a black screen and says 'No bootable device - enter boot cd and press any key'. Not sure how to fix this.

When I turn on my iMac, it shows a black screen and says 'No bootable device - enter boot cd and press any key'.
I'm not sure what to do, I did not recieve a cd with my mac to boot it up (I ordered it online).
Also I can't find my harware serial number (I've tried many times to input what I thought it may be from my receipt). I saw that I need this number to contact apple support, my 90 day complimentary support is still valid so I wish to contact them.
I don't know much about apple products as this is my first apple computer so any information is helpful.

Hold down the Alt/Option-key at startup of your iMac to get the Boot Selection screen.
From that choose to boot into OSX.
Once in OSX go to System Preferences then Startup Volume and reset your OSX to be the default.
The new iMacs have OSX 10.7 Lion preinstalled and don't come with any CD/DVD anymore.
Instead OSX Lion includes a new feature called "Lion Recovery".

I was working on a project a few days ago and now I'm not getting any audio or visuals out of it. In the project file the screen went grey. Not sure how to fix this. I'm new to iMovie, but the program seems easy to use and my Mac is new. Any help?

I used to use Movie Maker and it would be able to handle lots of file uploads and big projects. I figure iMovie can do the same since it's newer and it's on my iMac. I was working on a project for a few months, it was working fine up until about a few days ago when the project file just stopped working. Not getting any audio or visuals and the screen went grey. I hope to not lose the project file as I've spent a lot of time on it. The project will still show up in iMovie, but it won't play. Other project files will, but this one won't for some reason. It's my first time using this program and I assumed it would be fine, but now it's causing me big problems. Anyone else run into a similar problem?

But it is I jsut can sync, back up files, or anything becuase its stuck at this screene and wont do execute when i click either of those button

If not this:
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Then
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

I set up my new HP Descjet 3054A . I had a problem becouse Apple give me CD as a driver. The thing was that CD wasn good for this printer becouse it was old software:) I had to go to Apple store so the specialist had to download me he wright driver. Becouse I didnt wannet to screw this up . When he downloaded driver I fired it up at house and thingworks perfect. The thing is when you download all the software from HP side . Then you have to connect your MAC to printer via USB . Fallow the instructions it should works. Worked for me. Good Luck!

HT5622 When I turn on iMessage, all my texts go to my sons phone. I try giving him his own iCloud id but only my email is giving as a choice. Not sure how to fix?

When I turn on iMessage, all my texts go to my sons phone. I try giving him his own iCloud id but only my email is giving as a choice. Not sure how to fix?

iMessages only, not all texts as in SMS/MMS.
This means iMessage is activated on his iPhone with the same Apple ID.
Sign out of the Apple ID with iMessage on his iPhone and sign back in with his Apple ID.
Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > Apple ID.
Select the Apple ID and at the menu window that appears, select Sign Out. Sign back in there with his Apple ID.

I am getting a run time error message when I am trying to reinstall itunes and I'm not sure how to fix it. Can someone tell me what I need to do to get itunes back? Thanks!

I'm not sure how or why this is happening and it has just started...I tried to update and then it would not allow me to open the file at all giving me a runtime error message and multiple windows (because of the help feature). It has been successfully reinstalled but I'm still getting the error message...what do I do?

I think your Voice mailbox goes by time, not # messages, so if one or two of the messages is longer, then it would be "full" faster.
Go to youmail.com and follow the directions to set up youmail.
Just curious - why do you need to save 20+ messages? Once I deal with them, I delete them.... and I rarely have more than one or two \saved messages....

I'm not sure how to explain this but PLEASE HELP! ...

okay so I'm not quite sure if anyone is going to understand what I'm talking about...
But for some reason when someone adds me to skype (sends me a request) it says "Hi, White Asian!... so and so wants to add you.. blahblah etc." It says something other than my current user name, or my current display name, or my first and last name. I have know idea why it says this. I've had skype for a long time now and several years ago I believe that I changed my display name to "White Asian" as a joke. It hasn't been that for a long time now and I have no idea why it shows up like that when someone sends me a request on skype. I've tried changing every possible thing to do with a name in the profile/user settings to no avail. THe only time it shows up (that I'm aware of) is when someone adds me.
So if you have any idea how I can fix this or why it's happening please let me know immediately!
Its driving me mad because I don't know how to fix this!
Thanks!

Not sure how to ask this; iPhone 5 carrier unlocked but question about refurb iPhone 5

Ok, so. Sorry if the tittle is a bit confusing, im not really sure how to even word it myself.
The short; I had some issues with AT&T at the begining of the year so i left them and had them unlock my iPhone 5 so i could use it with T-Mobile. But now im having this issue with my iPhone 5 were the home buton is a bit unresponsive sometimes. It started as it feeling a bit loose and making a clicking sound when slightly taped. I did go to the Apple store when it first started happening and they said it wasnt a big issue, that some did this, basicaly saying "Its normal dont worry about it." I said ok and went on my way.
Now, when i had an unresponsive home button on my old iPhone 4 with AT&T all the Apple store did was give me a refurb. Ok, no issues, pop sim out of old iPhone, put in refurb iPhone, everything works fine.
But, my question is; if they give me a refurb iPhone 5, how would the whole process work seeing as i had my current iPhone 5 unlocked by AT&T vs. buying it unlocked from Apple and im using it on a different network other then what i bought for?
Sorry if its all a bit confusing, like i said, im not even sure how to word some of this.

An exchange under warranty can be a new or refurbished iPhone with no way to tell the difference. An exchange under warranty if new or refurbished is called a service unit and is provided in a plain unsealed box with the iPhone only.
Apple should have on record that your iPhone 5 is officially unlocked since the unlocking was done by Apple with iTunes after Apple was notified by AT&T that unlocking your iPhone was authorized by AT&T.
Make sure this information is on record by Apple before the iPhone is exchanged if Apple determines the iPhone needs to be exchanged under warranty.

I registered my new iPhone 5s to my usual Apple ID, however it isn't showing in my devices when I log in. I tried to register it by adding a new device, but it tells me it's already registered to a different Apple ID. I'm really not sure how to fix this.
