Is it possible to delete the original Admin Account, having set up other Admin Accounts on the computer?
Thanks,

Once you have an additional Admin Account, there should be nothing "magical" about the original Admin account.
The Account you use to delete the original MUST be an Admin Account, or the old account cannot be deleted. But that is the "Acid test" for the veracity of the new Admin account.

In the past it was possible to delete songs/tones from iTunes but this no longer seems to be the case. Is it possible to delete songs or tones if they are not duplicated - I just no longer want them in my library?
Howdy SJHocking,
It sounds like you want to know how to dele songs and ringtones from iTunes. Take a look at the article linked below, it’ll walk you through the process of deleting content from iTunes.
Delete songs, playlists, or other items - iTunes Help
If you have iTunes Match enabled, take a look at this article which will walk you through the process of deleting songs from iCloud.

I bought six songs using my itunes gift card in February but I cannot play the songs or downlaod them to my ipod because I get an error saying the original file could not be found. I have used the gift card previously with no issue. How do I fix it?
Have you moved or deleted those tracks on your computer (the gift card has got nothing to do with it) ?
You might be able to re-download them via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes (re-downloading isn't possible in all countries) - if those songs appear there then delete the entries from your iTunes library (where you are clicking on them to play them and gettinf the 'original file' error), and they should then get a cloud symbol against them for re-downloading.
If they don't appear in that link then have you got them on, for example, an external drive ? -
I just bought my first iPhone(5). On Android, when editing a photo, the original stays in your gallery and the edited photo gets placed right next to it. So what I want to know is, When editing a photo in the photo app, what happens to the original since it would be nice to be able to make different edits of it.
That is an excellent question. This is definitely not the programmed behavior of Photoshop Elements. Normally, when you edit a file, a new copy of the file is created (the original is simply left alone). This new copy of the file will have "_edited-1" added to the end of the name. It should definitely not be adding $ to the name at all.
Just as a test, create a new user account on your computer, and try editing another image to see if does the same thing there. However, I suspect there is another application on your computer that is modifying how files are saved, deleted, and renamed. -
How can I format my intell based imac without the original Tiger discs? I have a user account on it that I dont want. I have upgraded to Snow Leopard but I want to to start affresh. Thank you. I have tried loading the Snow Leopard disc whilst holding down th C key but it goes straight into install mode. I am new to Macs and I have inherited this machine.
Hello, many options...
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the Erase tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Highlight the drive, select Partition Tab, then Format type... MacOS Extended Journalled, select the Security Options button, choose Zero Out Data, Erase... after completion do a new install.
Or...
Open System Preferences>Accounts, unlock the lock, click on the little plus icon, make a new admin account, log out & into the new account.
In the same pref pane highlight your old account, click the little minus icon, then use Disk Utility to Secure Erase Free Space. -
How to reset and activate an iPad when you are unable to locate the original Apple ID that set it up
My son received an iPad as a gift from someone we don't know. He got it to a state of needing to be reset. I am having trouble activating it because it is looking for the original Apple ID that set it up. I have an Apple ID and was able to reset it but am having issues activating it. Any ideas???
Sorry, but you can't use that device; only the person who set the lock or Apple can remove it, and Apple will only do so for its original owner(assuming they're alive.)

I have an old ipod (it's the very thin oblong one in purple, the one before the one that does video) and want to know how to get everything off it and into my iTunes library. My old computer died and the original library was lost, so don't have any of the content saved anywhere else. I now have an iPhone 5S and listen to music on that, so want to be able to listen to things from the old ipod too.
Can anyone help please?
Thanks very much
JaneApple normally does not get involved in handling lost objects like this. Since a real name is not installed it will be much more difficult.
You can try contacting Apple support at the US number, assume you are US going to BWI from the listing: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 and explain the situation and see if they offer any suggestions. -

I bought a ipad2 from a guy who bought it from someone else and the original owner never signed out of his icloud account and not it is locked is there a way i can reset it to my account?
Return it and get your money back. Unless you can contact the original owner and get them to remove it from their account you will not be able to activate it and use it. There is no way around this.

I have bought a CS5 suite (student) 2 years back. I have lost the original box and DVD. Now I am migrating to another computer and I couldnt find a source to install the CS5. Please help.
I couldnt even contact adobe direct to address the issue.If you registered with Adobe, your authorization number will be in your account on Adobe's website. Then you can use their downloads page and download CS5 and install it. A search on their main page will get you to the download page.

I have a teenager that has learned how to delete his history, is there a way to lock the history to where I can monitor the sites he visits without setting up parental control program on the computer?
Use security software or a router with a build-in password protected logging feature if you want to keep a record of visited websites.<br />
You can't prevent people from deleting the history and other personal (private) data in Firefox and a log elsewhere will always work even if other browser would be used. -

Click here and use Apple's iForgot service, or contact their Account Security team, or if you're the device's original owner, take it and its purchase receipt to a physical Apple Store.

Can I transfer the purchase of Creative cloud to my other adobe account?
I have two accounts, one for school and one for work. I have purchased the Creative Cloud membership using my school email account. Can I transfer the purchase of Creative cloud to my other work account? Im trying to keep everything within one email.
I don't think it is possible to transfer the subscription from one email address to another.
You may need to cancel the subscription and place a new order under correct email address
You may contact Adobe customer service and confirm once
