I want to change my Apple ID on my device to my new ID but the device would not allow me to do that! how do I?
I have acquired a used iPhone. I want to set it up as my own. I want to change my Apple ID in the iCloud Settings og the phone to include my new ID but the iPhone is stuck on the previous one even though the phone has been dereigistered fom the old users account and I have reset an Apple ID on the site and on my phone. How do I change the Apple ID on the iCloud settings on the phone so that I register the phone on iCloud under my own account?
The previous user was supposed to erase the phone and remove it from their account, as explained here under "If the device has not been erased": http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515. Contact the previous owner and have them perform these steps.

My account is in usa but I want to enter an international credit card, but the form does not allow me. How do I have to proceed
chi45,
You must have your iTunes and App Stores set to the same country that your billing information is based in (i.e.: must use a US credit card in US iTunes and App Stores).
If you move to another country, you need to change the country of your iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, and Mac App Store account. Otherwise, your credit card might not work as payment. For example, only German credit cards can be used to buy content from the German iTunes and App stores.
Can't change the country of your iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, or Mac App Store account

You need to move the music from the iPod to your iTunes library on your computer then sync with the iPhone.
Assuming you have a PC you can use this: http://www.yamipod.com/main/modules/home/ -

Try restarting all devices including portable iOS ones and your router.
Check Airplay is not disabled in AppleTVs settings.

PLEASE HELP - I recently changed my email password on my computer...the email is also on my iPad. I can log on the computer with the 'new' password, however, the iPad is not allowing me to log in. I continue to get the 'incorrect password' message. Please advise.
I'm sorry you're having issues with your e-mail account on your phone Rusty1112. Let's figure out what's going on. First, please try deleting account/information again and then restart phone. When phone is back on, try adding e-mail account again, and be sure you're entering exactly as you set up, meaning its case-sensitive. If you're still getting same error, please let us know and let us know what e-mail account it is, Yahoo, AOL, MSN, etc.
Thank you,

My iPhone has been badly damaged and I cannot get the screen to work. I want to do a backup to transfer to my new phone but the backup will not work because the phone is locked. Can I input my lock code to the phone via the computer to allow a backup?
Sorry, no.

O change store but the system will not allowI have left $ 1.42 in my US store
Have $1.42 in my US store
the system will not allow to change
how can i change stores?You can't change countries whilst you have a balance on your account. If you can't spend it then you can try contacting iTunes support and ask them if they can remove the balance : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

I have been trying to change my Apple ID for my iPhone account because the e-mail on there is an old e-mail that I cannot use anymore. I have went on the website and went through all of the steps of changing it, and I've changed everything to my updated e-mail and verified it as well. On my phone, it still has my old e-mail address, and keeps popping up any time I try to access iCloud, iMessage, etc. that my password or e-mail is invalid. I'm not sure why it's not changing on my phone or what other steps I'm supposed to take in changing it.
If they are no longer in your camera roll, save them to your camera roll before deleting the account (open your my photo stream album, tap Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon -- box with upward pointing arrow, the tap Save to Camera Roll).

I just bought a new iMAC. I want to set a password. But, the system seems to think I already have one set, and I don't know what it is. How do I reset this feature, so that I can set a password, without knowing the current password?
Have you yet, during setting up the new iMac, transferred old data and settings from an external hard drive or another computer? If so, then your computer obtained its current set Password from that tranfer, so you would have to determine what that Password was in the old system. If you have Not transferred any information that way, then the installation and/or setup seem to have corrupted somehow since it hasn't yet received a new system Password selection from you.
At this point, if you can, you can reboot while holding down the Command - R keys to boot into the Mountain Lion Recovery Partition. There you can select to "Reinstall Mountain Lion from the Internet". This will overwrite your current installation and any problems that have occured and give you a fresh install that hopefullywill allow you to set up without problems. -

As you all hopefully know, apple has announced their new operating software being released this summer, mountain lion. It states that they are incorporating twitter in to the software to that by a simple click you can upload items to twitter. Same thing goes for the iOS devices. Since apple is doing so much with twitter how come they dont have an official company twitter page?
The iTunes Store has several:

I am attempting to sync my iPhone to an existing iTunes account using a new computer but the info will not pull up or transfer. What am I doing wrong is this possible to do?

How can I sync the new itunes with my iphone and not have my phone data wiped out?
There is no way to stop iTunes from doing exactly what it is designed to do.
The iPhone is designed to sync with one and only one computer.
If you have moved/copied your iTunes library from your old computer to your new one, then iTunes wiping your device is no problem. You would simply sync and iTunes will put all the content back. -
I want to change my apple id becouse of change email adres. Now i can use or update y apps?
I have a new a mail adres. Now i want to change my apple id tot this adres. This is possibel on the site (thanks apple) but all my apps on the i pad still use the former apple id/email adres. Zo cannot use the or update them. It seems i am stuck with the old email adres forever
Helpppp me please, thxThat is not the problem. I do not have a new apple id. I just changed the name of it because my email adres will expire. On the apple site <see your link> is explained how. This works fine on the site, i can log on and off with the new email adres.
But....all the apps on my i pad still contain the old apple id. And....it is not possibel to log on with this account becaue is has been changed :-)
So is seems that the only way a can use apps on my present and future ipad is tot use the same appe id forever...witch is not possible because companies change and so do e-mail-adresses.
Why does apple use email adresses as an id instead of an real id or an apple id
