I've lost my password for my Airport, and cannot set up AppleTV without it. How can I either reset or recover the password?
While you can reset your password, it might be wise to first check and see whether you can retrieve it, which will save you some time as far as setting up new connections on all of your devices with a new password.
On your iMac.....
Open Finder > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click on the AirPort router icon, then click Edit in the smaller window that appears
Click the Base Station menu at the top of the screen....up where the other File, Edit, Window, and Help menus reside
Click Show Passwords

I lost all content on my laptop and had to revert to original settings - how do I get my music from the Ipod to the computer?
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.

Can I share one iTunes account for my iPad and two I phones? If so, how can I get the purchased apps and music on all three devices? How do I sync all the devices to have the same music and apps?
You can set up an iCloud account on each one (the SAME iCloud account using the same AppleID on each) and then sync via iCloud.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5262\
However, an iCloud backup nor sync contains purchased content - that is available for redownload from the iTunes and App stores (so no need to waste iCloud space storing it for you).
So, for purchased content, you will have to download it on each device - just use the same AppleID and download each item on each device.
Without a computer to aid the sync'ing, downloading the purchased content on each device is the only way.
P.S audiobooks cannot be re-downloaded once purchased (all other content can be), so without a computer to save, store and move the audiobook files around, you will only be able to put those on one device - the one you first purchase it on. -

Plug it into a wall outlet, & while plugged in, reset it: Press the Sleep/Wake button & Home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release.

Just bought a new 4th gen iPod Shuffle for my kid. Problem is I cannot do the initial set up, as the device does not show up on iTunes on my PC. Also the charging does not light up. Any ideas on what could be wrong, as I am able to see both my iphone and iPad on iTunes using the same PC?
I also tried manually underlining a few things on the new iPad and when highlighting a paragraph, it would skip a few lines and the line would go through a few as well. Looks like a major iBooks glitch needs to be addressed here.

I have the disks but not the serial number. Have new mac pro laptop, but cannot access old pages and numbers files.
Doesn't the box show the serial number? Do you have your old computer with iWork on it? Then you should be able to see in the about Pages window which serial number you have.
If you have a new computer I presume you have Mountain Lion on it. You can buy Pages 09 and Numbers from the Mac AppStore and then open the documents. -

I had 1235 songs on my iPad 3 I subscribed to iTunes Match and it deleted all of my songs except for 79 that I had purchased from iTunes Store. How can I recover my lost songs???
Hi,
If the tracks were not in your iTunes library on your computer when you subscribed to match, I am afraid that they are lost. Do you have a separate back up of this music?

I am locked out of my iphone. I changed the password and it still wont work. I changed it again and it is now disabled. I do not use itunes, icloud. How can I get into my iphone? I have changed my password and its not working. how can I start over?
Follow the instructions in this support document. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
Without a backup, the use of iTunes or the use of iCloud, your only choice is to restore the device as new to remove the passcode. -
My husband and I share an Itunes account so use the same email address and password. Our iphones are now connected and we get each other's messages and share each other's contacts. How can we stop this happening?
A couple of different approached:
Create a second AppleID for one of you that includes the email address and phone number you wish to use for messaging, but do not apply it to the iTunes and app store (just keep the current one). My wife and I do this and it works quite well. Also allows for easier syncing of Contacts , notes etc. using icloud if you wish to do that.
Add additional emails/phone numbers to the existing account and change the Send/Receive settings for Messages. this will not fix the Contcts isues for you however.
