Icloud will not let me change my apple ID, even though the ID is changed.

I changed my Apple ID and now my icloud won't let me change the ID under my settings...it just keeps saying "wrong Apple ID or password." Super frustrating.

Go to system preferences, icloud
Log out - It will ask you to delete the calendars appts etc.... (do not worry, once you change your id everything syncs back up) just click delete, you will see 2 more similar windows pop up, just delete.  When you are finished, click on the icloud icon again and put in your new ID.  It will ask what you want to sync and your done.

  • Itunes will not let me look at my acount, even though it shows i am signed in it keeps asking me to sign in.

    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return. A folder should open. If it does, move the contents to the Desktop, leaving the folder open. Relaunch the application and test. If the problem isn't solved, quit the application again and put back the items you moved, overwriting any that may have been created in their place. Post your results.
    Otherwise, delete the items you moved to the Desktop and close the folder.

  • Icloud will not let me enter new apple id or password

    I changed my apple id because the email address was wrong.  I want to get an icloud account but it still has the same old email address and won't let me enter a new one.  I do not want to delete the account because I have been told it would also erase some of my contacts.  How do I do this??? Frustrated in Southern California!!

    Your contacts will be removed from your phone when you delete the account. Then (when you sign in again with your new ID) they will be put back.

  • My DVD drive on my IMAC will not allow me to load a disc, even though there is no DVD in the disc slot.

    My IMAC will not allow me to load a DVD, even though the disc drive is empty.  Any ideas as to what I should do to resolve the problem
    Thanks
    Roger

    Sounds like you have a newer iMac than this forum covers. The newer ones have a bar or "fence" that, on detecting the drive has failed. moves the bar to block the slot so no media can be inserted (to avoid damage or loss of a disk).
    You will need a new optical drive--contact an Apple retail Store or an Authorized Apple Service Provider:

  • My iPad, Macbook and Apple TV are all set up with the same iCloud email address.  I bought the iPhone 6 and accidentally set the iCloud up with a different email.  My phone will not let me change the email address to be the same as my other devices,

    My iPad, Macbook and Apple TV are all set up with the same iCloud email address.  I bought the iPhone 6 and accidentally set the iCloud up with a different email.  My phone will not let me change the email address to be the same as my other devices, it tells me that email is already being used. How do I delete the iPhones iCloud account and reinstall it to match my other devices.

    Yes it will, just sign out, then sign back in with the correct address.

    You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
    Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store alert. For example, the App Store may prompt you to update "Angry Birds" or "Twitter," but the hacked app may be something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you must carry out a systematic search with Spotlight.
    1. Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    2. In the Finder, press command-F to open a search window, or select
    File ▹ Find
    from the menu bar. In the search window, select
    Search: This Mac
    from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu of search criteria, initially showing Kind. From that menu, select
    Other...
    A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select
    Raw Query
    as the criterion, then click OK or press return.
    Now there will be a text box to the right of the menu of search criteria. That's where you enter the raw search query. Click in that box and paste the text you copied earlier by pressing command-V.
    4. The search window will now show all the App Store products that are installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
    At least one of the apps in the Spotlight search results is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash, after quitting it if it's running. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch the App Store. Test.
    If you find these instructions confusing, ask for an alternative method.

  • I used to have a apple id but when i got my macbook i changed it. Then i downloaded OS X and updates in my app store will not let me change my apple id back to my new one it just still uses my old one. What do i do?

    Content and Apple IDs -
    Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple Id to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with another Apple ID with a new ID.

  • Apple store installed optical drive replacement. It plays CD and DVD but will not let me change a DVD to .mp4 without stalling and or going very very slow.  Can I fix the HL-DT-STDVDRW  GA11NR?

    Apple store installed optical drive replacement. It plays CD and DVD but will not let me change a DVD to .mp4 without stalling and or going very very slow.  Can I fix the HL-DT-STDVDRW  GA11NR?  The Apple store is a two hundred mile one way trip.

    I didn't imply anything; I simply explained the terms of the ToU here because you had not specified what you were trying to do. Most such related questions are about copying protected content and I would not appreciate having my post removed with the obligatory email from Apple because I violated the ToU. In any case, you can find dozens of threads googling (or here) about the newer burners being slow copying content if it is protected. FWIW, if the DVD was produced by a commercial outfit, they may have used some sort of protection or an unusual file format - that problem has been discussed here previously.
    As for your slow burner - since we don't even know what type of Mac/model/year/OS  you have, it is impossible to guess. If it's an iMac, those vertically installed burners are known to be less than perfect; the horizontally installed versions are better, but still not as good as an external. I've used an external burner for years.
    As for the conversion time: the burner should have nothing to do with that; it is your software and your Mac's processor and amount of RAM that matter for conversions and rendering. I have no idea what you are using to burn the DVD. And, as a last consideration: you should always burn your content at a slow speed so you can avoid burn errors and have better results.
    Good luck.

  • Email will not let me change fonts all of a sudden.

    Email will not let me change fonts all of a sudden.  It says I don't have the neccesay permissions in ~/library/preferences.  this has just happened recently.

    Who is your email provider?
    You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears. Try again to see if the problem persists.
    If yes, try deleting the mail account and adding it again.

  • HT2731 Why will not let you use an Apple ID for free when reseted

    Hi,
    Some ISPs (the people that supply your internet) have porr DNS servers meaning that sometimes that cannot resolve where an app is trying to connect to.
    In System Preferences > Network > Advanced Button > DNS tab add 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 (two Google Public DNS servers)
    If that does not work then go to the Apple Menu > About this Mac
    In that Panel click twice on the line that tells you the Current OS versin.
    It should change to the Build number (Another Apple Internal Counting of the OS version) and then show you the Serial Number.
    If it is not present it will need "replacing" at an Apple Store or An Apple Authorised Service Provider.
    The Number should be on the Logic/Motherboard.
    If the board is replaced in a repair or refurbishment then the Number should be "flashed" to the new board.
    If that does not seem to be the Issue have the Finder as the app in the Menu Bar
    GO Menu > Go to Folder
    Type etc/hosts into the Dialogue Box that appears.
    This will show you a Hidden folder (etc) and a file called Hosts in it will be highlighted.
    Right click the file and use the Quick Look Option to see the contents.
    It should read like this  if it is unalerted.
    Some apps can change this file and you can have blocks to certain sites for certain apps listed.
    If it lists Apple or Verisign then the iMessages App cannot register.
    Let use know if this is the case and we can give further instructions.

  • HT5312 It will not let me change my security passwords? What do I do?

    My ipad will not let me change my security passwords and question and I don't know what to do

    What do you mean 'my iPad will not let me change my security passwords' ? You are following the instructions on the HT5312 page that you postedi.e. if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on your account then steps 1 to 5 half-way down that page should give you a reset link.
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset (these are user-to-user forums).
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use
