A message has appeared saying 'icloud cannot access my account' and gives two options 'ignore' or 'settings'. BUT the ipad wont open and the message options do not respond. The ipad won't switch off so I'm stuck with this message on the screen and cannot access the ipad to do anything. Please help!!!

Have you tried a hard reset?
Press and hold the Home button and the Wake / Sleep buttons at the same time, keep them both pressed until the Apple Logo appears.
If that does not work then conect the iPad to iTunes and Restore the iPad software and your latest iPad backup.

    I recently changed my apple ID but the old on is still on my iCloud account. The old address is dimmed on iCloud on my iPad so I can't change it. How do I change to the new address?  I don't want to delete the account as I don't want to lose the pictures

    To change it, you have delete the existing account.  However you can avoid losing any pictures in the process.  To avoid losing photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll (if not already there) before deleting the account.  To do this, open your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.  (Camera roll photos are not effected by deleting the account.)
    Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID.  This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.

  • If i buy an iPad from Amazon can I still purchase apple care?

    If i buy an iPad from Amazon can I still purchase apple care?

    How to get AppleCare+
    Purchase AppleCare+ together with your new iPad, and you'll be automatically registered in the plan. Add it to your shopping cart during the checkout process when you purchase your new iPad.
    Or buy it within 30 days of your iPad purchase:
    At an Apple Retail Store (if AppleCare+ is purchased separately from iPad, inspection of iPad and proof of purchase are required.)
    Or call (800) 275-2273 (requires you to run a remote diagnostic and provide proof of purchase)

    Merry Christmas , I'm trying to sync icloud to my iPad from my iPhone , please advise.

    Howdy Joanas,
    It sounds like you would like to set up the same iCloud account on your iPad that you have on your iPhone. First I would verify the Apple ID you are using on the phone here:
    Settings > iCloud
    From: Using your Apple ID for Apple services
              http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4895
    On your go to the same place, and set up the the same Apple ID to that one.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Regards,
    Sterling

  • I can't switch in Shuffle Off mode iTunes 11.1.3 (8)

    I can't switch in Shuffle Off mode iTunes 11.1.3 (8) - its not work now

    Same issue.  Shuffle does not turn off either from the button or from Controls > Shuffle > Turn off Shuffle.
    To be more specific, iTunes shuffles no matter what, even when the button is off and when Controls > Shuffle says "Turn on Shuffle" (meaning it's supposed to be off).

  • How do I prevent iPad from re-transmitting a file to iCloud every time I view it, even if I have made no changes?

    When I view a Numbers document on iPad, even if I make no changes, it gets retransmitted to iCloud. How do I prevent this?
    It can be annoying, as I have several ios devices, and I am continually getting messages like "this document was updated on 3 devices; which version do you want to keep?".
    Pages doesn't do this.
    Numbers didn't used to.
    The only unusual thing I have done, was to double click on an ios Numbers document in Finder and edit it on my macbook. That's when all this started, although I don't see the connection.
    I keep versions up-to-date on everything.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Why does Apple prevent ipad from accessing Extreme hard drives?

    I have a very simple requirement.  I want to access my pictures from my NAS (Extreme with external HD).  While OSX can do this, Apple has prevented iOS from doing this pedestrian feat.  It is very frustrating and 'feels' like it was done to merely propogate Hard drive consumption by copying videos everywhere.  If Apple has to hang on this approach for their upgrade strategy, it is extremely weak.  The ipads/etc. don't have enough storage to even begin to support the video storage requirements and backing up to iCloud to have a latent solution is even more weak.  Even if I could get a 1TB I wouldn't do it as I don't want to stream HD videos that could be placed locally. 
    So Apple.  Why? And btw, if you don't have a good reason, just think about all those enterprises, etc. that want server file access. 
    Sincerely,
    Very irritated Customer.

  • Preventing ipad from being disabled...

    I am a Program Manager who works with intellectually disabled adults. I have a gentleman who has an iPad 2 and utilizes a communication app on it. However, he also is allowed to download apps, games etc to his liking.
    Over the past 2 months, he has disabled the iPad 2 (7 times!!!). This is due to him playing within the "Settings" icon. Is there a way that you can block him from touching that setting icon? I know it's a long shot!!!!
    If not, I guess I will be restoring an iPad every two weeks for the next million years.

    Sorry but no, there's no way to lock off the settings and still allow him to use multiple apps and download more. I'm afraid that you will indeed just have to get used to restoring the iPad from time to time.
    Regards.

  • How do you prevent iPads from syncing with iTunes when managing a cart with Apple Configurator

    I am managing carts of iPads with Configurator running on a MacBook. If I open iTunes when Configurator is not open, all 30 iPads will start Syncing with iTunes. Preferences>>Devices>>Prevent Devices from Automatically Syncing is set but yet any time iTunes is opened the iPads start syncing. This does not happen if Configurator is open.

    I was able to finally stop ITunes from crashing after many days of searching n restarting my computer many times.
    a) First I went to this site ->http://forums.techarena.in/guides-tutorials/1119812.htm that showed me how to disable DPE. Please make sure that u have good virus...etc.. protection first before doing this. I have Avast Internet Security. RESTART UR COMPUTER..
    b) I then uninstall ITunes by following this site ->http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923      RESTART UR COMPUTER..
    c) I then downloaded a beta version of ITunes. I happen to download beta 7 before the final of 10.5 version came out. Installed it. After installing I click on it n it said somewhere along the line of "this ITune ver. expired" I checked in my Programs n Features n notice that QuickTime was installed w that beta version.   
    d) Go online n download the final version of ITunes ->http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ ...... After u finish dling install that. After that's done connect your IPod, IPhone...etc... n click on ITunes, it should sync all the way.
    I was finally able to sync all thru the steps insteading of it crashing on me midway. Hopefully this will work for you. Good luck !

  • HT4759 I don't meet iCloud requirements, but apple says I can still switch over?

    The email I received from apple today says "don't meet iCloud requirements?  You can still switch over...".
    Yet when I click "move to iCloud now" on my iPhone with ios5, it says I must make the switch from a Mac or pc. 
    So I can't switch over from my iPhone, which DOES meet the requirements?  But not from my laptop, which doesn't?
    I'm thoroughly confused.
    Sent from my iPhone

    You can switch on the computer. You can either use the option to switch at the end of June, or simply lie about meeting the specifications on the computer.

  • How can I switch channels on/off to be displayed in a waveform graph?

    I have a VI which currently logs 15 analog channels to a data file and also displays these channels on a waveform graph. I would like to be able to switch channels on/off for the waveform graph during runtime but still continue to log them to the data file. Anyone know how I can do this?

    hi keefa.
    (first, please excuse me for my english, because I'm french :-) )
    You can do what you want by displaying or not the curve on the graph.
    I have made a light example with a 2D 8 chanels 5 points/chanel array.
    After you have a "writing in a file" part.
    You have both chanel display command on the front panel.
    Test it, and ask me if some point are not very clear...

  • Paragon 550 - can I switch all sound off

    Hi,
    Can I set my Paragon 550 so that all incoming calls and messages are left, with no sound heard?
    Thanks

    Hi and welcome to the forum.
    If you check out the user guide here (page 39) it does let you change the volume and the type of ring, you would have to experiment with the settings to see if you can actually turn the ringer off.
