I used to use an old e-mail address as my apple id and I changed it ages ago and everything seemed fine but since I've updated to the new software it's showing my old e-mail as the apple id for iCloud and now I can't log in. Can someone please help?!

I've tried to go into manage my account it only has my current e-mail address and I can't click forgot password for the old apple id because that e-mail is no longer active.
I hope that makes sense..

Do a backup.
Try System Preferences/iCloud and sign out. Then sign in with your new Apple ID.

  • I receive a large amount of duplicate emails in my own boxes that i have sent to others. when deleted they return every time i check my mail. along with any messages i have deleted  from others can someone please help me?

    when i send an email to someone i recieve multiple copies of it it my folders [ usally varying between all mail, trash, and important] they all say my name on them. i recieve about 20 - 40 of them at a time , even after i delete them next time i check my mail they are back . along with this any message that has been sent to me in the past that i have deleted also reappears but only  as single messages. im recieving hundreds of all these a day and it has made my email become unmanagable and im extremly frustrated. my computer is new and i never made any change to the preferences before this started happening so i have no idea . has anyone had this problem , have any ideas or know how to fix it? your help would be greatly appreciated . also to add i also recieve them whenever checking mail on my iphone i never had a problem on the phone until i activated the email on my new imac. and the email app uses my gmail acount if that helps?

    no, I didn't ask to burn a picture....this is why I am confused to how the picture got on there.
    I understand what you are saying regarding the multi-session thing (how do I avoid this if my other cds with photos on them have this, and I don't know they do?)
    but what I do know is that cd had photos on it (it definately wasn't full, and maybe that is why I haven't had a problem with others...they have all been full) and no one else uses my Mac, so I know no one else put the picture on that cd. I may have inadvertantly burned the picture, but if I did, I don't know what I did to make it burn the picture onto the cd.....
    The only thing that happened was I opened iphoto so I could save some of the pictures that were already on the disc, but when I went to look for the pictures on the cd, the only thing that was on it, was an iphoto picture....which I didn't ask to be put there.....
    I have previously burned pictures onto CD using my Mac with no problem, and I've pulled pictures off CD that were burned using a PC. So I guess I need to know how to determine if the cds have this multi-session thing going on?

  • Can someone please help me figure out how to "clear" recent email addresses used in Mail?

    Can someone please help me figure out how to “clear” recent email addresses used in Mail?  For example, as I begin typing a name/email address in the “To:” field, Mail begins suggesting addresses that I’ve previously used.  I don’t want any suggestions unless they are in my contacts. 
    Another example:  When using MS Outlook, it will also remember and suggest email accounts previously used, but I can arrow down and delete an account from the list so it won’t automatically popup or suggest in the future. 
    I appreciate any guidance in this matter. 

    The iOS email app stores all email recipients in a list of previous recipients which cannot be turned off. The email address autofill feature when addressing an email pulls from contacts and from the list of previous recipients which can't be prevented. There is no option to clear the list of previous recipients - not at the present time anyway.
    If you don't want any suggestions, select from contacts instead when addressing an email.

    very frustrated iphone user !!

    Changing devices is no reason to create a new Apple ID.
    All content purchased from iTunes is permanently linked to the Apple ID it was purchased with.
    To update apps purchased with the old ID, you MUST sign in with that Apple ID.

  • I can log onto Facebook ,and my yahoo mail but the page doesn't load up all the way.My messages and various things aren't showing up.Can someone please help?

Can someone please help me?

    You may have to open Mail, go to the upper left corner of the screen and click on the word Mail, open Preferences, click on Accounts, and make sure your Gmail account is still fully set up properly with all proper account and incoming and outgoing Mail Servers properly completed.  When you added iCloud capability it may have upset the account settings for Gmail.
    Hope this helps

  • Can someone please help. I have a really old MacBook that is running really slow. I want to wipe everything and reinstall the latest software but don't know how to do this. Also is there a way of keeping Microsoft Office when doing this? Thanks in advance

    You do realise that wiping the disk means that everything on the disk is erased. Everything. Photos, music, emails, ...
    So the first piece of advice is to make sure you have a back up of everything.
    You need the OS disk to reintsall the operating system. You will use that disk first to erase the drive, then to reinstall the OS.
    Here's the link for the US.  http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    As for MS Office, you will need the original disk that it came on to reinstall it.

    Hold down the on/off button and the home button for 20 to 30 sec, when the iPod starts and the Apple logo is on the screen release the on/off button but continue to hold the home button until you see the plug into iTunes screen.  Connect the iPod to iTunes and you should be good to go.

    Sounds like a bogus pop up. In any case power down your Mac, your modem, your router. Then power back up in 1 minute sequence; modem, router, Mac.

  • Hi there. Can someone please help me with copying photos from my old iPad to my new one? Thanks.

    Hi there. Can someone please help me with copying photos from my old iPad to my new ipad2? Thanks.

    If you have a pc, when you plug your iPad in you should see the windows pop up window offering to backup the photos. Do that and it will save all your photos and videos to your computer where you can then sync them back to your new one.
    If the pop up doesn't come up, double click on my computer and navigate your way to the iPad. Double cick on it an d navigate to the DCIM folder. Drag your photos and videos to your pc, then sync them back onto your iPad.

  • I recently downloaded iMovie on my iPhone 5 and it is telling me to connect to wifi or use itunes to download iMovie well I have done both and it is still not working can someone please help me?

    I recently downloaded iMovie on my iPhone 5 and it is telling me to connect to wifi or use itunes to download iMovie well I have done both and it is still not working can someone please help me?

    Hi troy157,
    I'm sorry you are having issues with the iMovie app you purchased for your iPhone5.
    The first thing I would suggest is to log out of your iTunes Account on your iPhone, turn the iPhone off and then on again, and see if app finishes downloading/updating.
    Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Tap on your Apple ID account > Tap Sign Out
    If the issues persists, the article below will give you a few more troubleshooting steps:
    iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store
    Try the following steps to resolve your issue, testing the app after each step.
    1. Update your device software
    Update your device to the latest version of iOS.
    2. Check for app updates
    Ensure that your apps are up to date:
    Open the App Store and tap Updates. If updates are available, tap Update All.
    When prompted, enter your iTunes Store account information. App Store will then download and install the application updates.
    Note: Some applications may require a Wi-Fi connection to update.3. Install another app from the App Store
    4. Restart the application
    If the issue affects only a single app, try closing just that app:
    Press the Home button to return to the Home screen.
    Double-tap the Home button to display recent apps.
    Tap and hold the affected app until the red minus appears.
    Tap the red minus to quit the app.
    Press the Home button, then restart the app.
    5. Restart your device
    Hold the Sleep/Wake button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off your device. When it is off, press the Sleep/Wake button to turn it back on.6. Reinstall the affected application
    Remove the application from your device and reinstall it.
    Touch and hold any application icon on the Home Screen until the icons start to wiggle.
    Tap the "x" in the corner of the application you want to delete.
    Tap Delete to remove the application and all of its data from your device.
    Press the Home button.
    Go to the App Store.
    Search for the application and then download it again.
    Note: If it is a paid app, ensure you are using the iTunes account you purchased the app with originally. If it is not, you will be charged for the app again. For more information regarding downloading previously purchased items, see this article.
    I hope this information helps ....
    Have a great day!
    - Judy
