IPhone won't recognize new Apple ID

I updated my desktop iTunes to the new Apple ID - added an @aol.com to the end - per the new "rules". Now my iPhone 4s will not recognize my new password and prompts me to update my account when I type the old one. Can't update apps or sign into iTunes on my phone. I keep getting the pop-up "You need to update your account with iTunes Desktop." I've done that. When the prompt pops up for me to enter my password to update my apps it says my ID WITHOUT the @aol.com, which leads me to believe my phone doesn't "know" my "new" username. I've done soft resets on the phone (two), signed in and out of everything associated with iTunes and iCloud and tried putting in passwords dating back to a year. It won't recognize my new password but throws the "you need to update" prompt up when I try to use an old password. HALP.

I have taken the steps you said to do, but my iPhone is not recognizing my "old" password that I need to put in to turn off "Find my iPhone." I can't sign out. Which means I can't sign back in. I am able to sign in to forums like this with my new apple ID. But I can't get into my iCloud on my laptop. It seems like in order to try to deal with this problem I have changed my ID and password so many times that now I can barely log in anywhere. Should I just go to a Verizon or Apple store? Can they override my system and reset everything or something?

Dvi projector won't recognize new Apple TV

I'm trying to connect a new apple tv to this Planar projector PR5022 High-Bright XGA DLP Projector = http://www.planar.com/products/projectors/pr5022/
I have an HDMI to DVI-D cable connecting the ATV to the DVI-D input on the projector, but the projector doesn't know that the ATV is connected. It says that there is no source or input or signal when I change the source to the DVI input. Can anyone provide any help, feeback, or suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
p.s. I need to know a solution ASAP.

Computer only most likely means the input is not HDCP compliant, (content protection is required for video playback). HDMI inputs and some newer DVI equipped displays offer this.
It is possible that the frequencies that input recognizes doesn't include SMPTE rates such as 1080P, 1080i, and 720P, but that is more unlikely than the first bit.

Try logging out of iCloud and then log back in with your new Apple ID. Otherwise, ask in the iPhone community.

IMac with Mavericks won't recognize new 60D

iMac with Mavericks won't recognize new 60D

No drivers are required on the Mac to use the camera. The Mac will natively recongize the camera.
You can install Canon's supplemental software or you can use the Apple provided software or 3rd party software.
However... when you connect a camera to a Mac and it recognizes the camera, you *can* configure what you want the computer to launch. By default, a Mac will usually launch iPhoto.
If you open iPhoto (do this EVEN if you don't want to use iPhoto) then go into iPhoto -> Preferences and look at the "General" category. You'll see an option that reads: "Connecting camera opens:" with a selection menu next to it. You can use that menu to pick what you want your Mac to do, then close and quite iPhoto.
When connecting the camera to the computer, do the following:
Turn the camera off
Use the supplied USB cord to attach the camera to the computer (some caveats here... I'll mention them below).
Power the camera on after it's attached.
About those caveats on step 2.
The reason I say "use the supplied USB cord" instead of use any USB cord is because if you're like me... you've got LOTS of USB cords laying around. Some of these come with devices that use USB for charging purposes. And some of those USB cables ONLY bother to wire the power supply pins and not the data transfer pins. In other words... it looks like a normal cable, but wont actually allow for data transfer. You will need to take care to make sure you're using a proper cable.
Next I should caveat the use of USB hubs. Whenever you're having a problem with a computer not recognizing a USB device, it's a good idea to disconnect extraneous USB devices that have nothing to do with your issue AND if there's a USB "hub" involved... bypass the hub and connect the camera directly to a USB port on the computer itself.
I use a USB hub and this particular hub is reliable... but truthfully I had to buy three different hubs before I found one that worked reliably. I've discovered there are a lot of flakey hubs on the market. When in doubt... bypass the hub. If you find that you can get your computer to recognize your camera on a consistent basis if you bypass the hub then you can direct your attention to finding a reliable hub.
That's the end of the caveats.
I wrote a response to a user with a similar issue in which I detail the steps to use the Mac's System Information utility to determine if the camera is showing up as connected to the camera. You can find that post here:

Itunes won't recognize new credit in Itunes

itunes won't recognize new credit in itunes store and goes straight to billing page so I cannot purchase anything; also play button won't activate when in itunes stor. Susanne

Hi Chris
Thank you for your help sorry it has taken me so long to reply to you.
I solved my problem with Itunes gift card after many frustrating hours. I went to purchase another song it did the same thing as before (went straight to the billing page) but this time I hit a credit card icon it asked me to bring up details; I deliberately entered wrong numbers so forth and so on. I deleted all the credit card details and hit NONE and I found I could then exit the page. That action seemed to trigger a correction for purchase; and I could then download without too much trouble.
Cheers

Why won't my new Apple ID except my bank details?

If you would like help from these user-to-user forums then you will need to provide more information that 'why won't my new apple id accept my bank details' e.g if you are getting an error message then what does it say ?

Just reset my apple ID and password, but iPhone does not recognize it for iCloud or iTunes. Is there a way to be sure these iPhone features use my new Apple ID and password?

Have never been able to use iCloud because my iPhone (v 4) does not recognize my apple ID or password. Any ideas?

If you still have access to your old email address, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email account and verify it. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. You can now go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your correct iCloud ID and password.
If you don't have access to your old email address, you will have to contact Apple to have them reset the password so you can disable Find My iPhone and sign into your iCloud account. You can either go to https://expresslane.apple.com, select "More Products and Services", then "Apple ID", then on the next page select "Other Apple ID Topics", then "Lost or forgotten Apple ID password" and click "Continue"; or you can contact Apple Support (http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/).

Why won't iCloud recognize new Apple ID?

Hello -- I changed my email address and therefore, on my Mac, I changed my Apple ID to that new address. Apple showed me a screen confirmation and I was then able to sign into Apple with my new Apple ID and same password. On my Mac, iTunes prompted me to update my email address, which I did. (Isn't that the same as my Apple ID?)
Possibly needlessly, I restarted the computer and turned the iPhone 4S off and back on, and then synced through iTunes. Again iCloud pops up on my iPhone showing my old Apple ID and says "User name or password is incorrect." It offers "ignore" or "edit." When I press "edit," it takes me to iPhone "settings": "iCloud account information." However, Apple ID is still shown as my old email address. It allows me to tap and activate the Password and Description (iCloud) lines beneath the Apple ID (to type changes) but not the incorrect Apple ID. How do I get iCloud to recognized my changed Apple ID?
I can't download from the App Store, either. Maybe it's i05 that is not recognizing changed Apple ID?
Thank you!

Welcome to the Apple community.
Have you actually signed out of your iCloud account in system preferences and logged back in using your new details. Until you do this iCloud will not work properly.

"Find my iPhone does not recognize New iPhone 5

I use my AppleID to "Find my iPhone" successfully on iPhone 4, iPhone4S, iPad, iMac. All show up. New iPhone5 iOS 6.0.2 uses same AppleID in the General iCloud settings, Contacts,email,photostream,safari bookmarks,reminders,notes, are all synced fine. I can even see how much storage is available in my iCloud account on the new iPhone5. The Problem is that "Find my iPhone" does not recognize the new iPhone 5. Yes location services is turned on. The iPhone5 can find its location in the map app, can find all other devices in "Find my iPhone" just not itself in "Find my iPhone" I tried a hard reset.
ANY IDEAS?

How about when the passcode is correct but not recognized?
I was prompted to enter a password to unlock the device when I downloaded IOS 7 several months ago.
Entered the password every single day for months, never a problem.
Yesterday I attempted to download the most recent IOS version and I was asked for a passcode before I could do that (my phone was unlocked). Online I found out the passcode is the unlocking password. It did not work and I was unable to use the phone for several minutes after 5 attempts. I just stored the phone and when home I charged it overnight.
This morning I unlocked the phone as usual and used it without a problem for emails, phone calls. etc.. Now, after not having used it for a while, I am asked for the passcode to unlock it as usual, and although I am sure I entered the right code, it is not recognized. I am unable to unlock my phone, although I have done it for months.
This is not a case of forgotten passcode! And I see it has happened to many others that use 4s and 5s iphones.
i could attempt the iTune connection fix, but it troubles me that all solutions are presented for forgotten pascodes, and in many cases actually the passcodes are not recognized. Which means, it will keep happening unless Apple offers a solution.

My iPhone no longer recognizes my Apple ID

Most of the answers on AD deal with a new Apple ID or a game app, etc. I have my "old" Apple ID and last week it just decided it no longer recognizes it. Works fine on my MacBook but not my iPhone.

Go to Settings > iTunes and App Store
Tap on your Apple ID
Sign out
Sign back in with correct ID
Should be good to go from there.

Lombard won't recognize new battery

After years of inactivity I wanted to give my old Lombard G3 to my little child so I bought new battery and new AC charger.
Now the problem is that Lombard won't recognize the new battery at all. Red cross on battery icon on top and empty slot in strip below.
I reset the Power manager as indicated here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=14449
Also running Battery Reset 2.0 doesn't give me any results.
What can I do now?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Fabio

fabiosko,
I'll just throw out some additional suggestions and comments.
-Does the battery have any charge, i.e. do any of the LEDs light up when you press the test button?
-Although it should make no difference, reset the PRAM also:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=2238
-Is your new power adapter 45 watts or more?
-Try the battery in the right bay.
-Allow the battery to sit in the powerbook overnight with the power adapter connected. Sometimes a non-charging battery will begin to charge again and it may also apply to a battery that is not recognized.
-Do you know someone with a Lombard or Pismo with whom you could swap batteries?
-The reputation of third-party replacement batteries is not the highest. You may have a bad battery and will need to exchange it.

Computer won't recognize new Shuffle

Just got my new 4th Gen. Shuffle in the mail and connected it to my mac laptop but it won't recognize it. I've tried "resetting" the shuffle using Apple's directions, I've restarted my computer, downloaded the latest version of iTunes and NOTHING! Anyone else having issues? Do I need to call? This is ridiculous...

First, run through the Apple troubleshooting suggestions:
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/shuffle2gen/
That is for an older version of the ipod, but I would imagine that it will give you some good ideas.
If none of that helps, I would suggest completely uninstalling all the Apple stuff and reinstalling. Go to add/remove programs and uninstall itunes and whatever else was installed for Apple - that includes their USB software.
Then, reinstall it all.
One other thing to try before doing all that is to shut down your computer and disconnect everything except for your keyboard, mouse and ipod. Then start it up again. If it comes up, then you know that some other USB thing on the bus was conflicting with your iPod. Also make sure you are connecting directly to the computer, not through a hub - just to make sure. If it works, then maybe try using the hub again. If it fails after that, you know it was the hub causing an issue. If it works, reconnect your USB items one at a time and restart after each reconnect until you find what was conflicting.
Hope that helps,
i

G5 won't recognize new RAM

I bought two sticks of this RAM http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other...g/3200DDR1024/ and put it in my Dual G5, following these instructions http://www.info.apple.com/usen/cip/pdf/g5/memory_c.pdf , but when I go to 'ABout this Mac,' it doesn't recognize that I've added RAM. I put the two sticks in slots 3 and 4 of the bottom half. I then tried putting the RAM into slots 3 on top and 3 on bottom, and then 4 on top and 4 on bottom....but it still won't recognize it. Did I do something wrong?

After reading your problem again, I believe we probably had the exact same thing. I have great news, though--my memory finally went down.
After reading the Crucial instructions (see my earlier post) I was more bold about the amount of force to use in pushing the sticks down, and I still couldn't get them down.
To check if the slots were in the wrong place, I ejected one of the original Apple sticks and compared the side of it to the side of the new sticks, and sure enough they were identical. At that point I decided to push even harder--it actually took an INSANE amount of force to get the sticks to click down--it was quite painful for my finger tips. If you guys have seen the instructional video on how to install memory on the OWC website, this was nothing like that. After sweating and applying a brutal amount of force, the sticks did finally pop down and the two side tabs clicked into place. When I booted the computer, the memory was there!
I would just caution you to make sure you're pushing straight down, because with that amount of force, pushing at any angle other than vertical would surely break the stick.
Good luck,
Ashwin
