Is my imessage  login the same as my itunes login?

I can't log into imessage. When I restart my iphone 3GS it asks me to enter my imessage account password, as far as i know I haven't got one, unless it is the same as my itunes account which I thought it would be. Anybody know what I can do to get it to work?
Thanks

Welcome to Apple Communities
Your Apple ID allows you to login in iTunes Store, App Store, Mac App Store, FaceTime, iMessage... It asks you your Apple ID password

  • Why if my iCloud info is the same as my iTunes login and password does it say the account name or password is incorrect when trying to log in

    Forget that, wrong forum.

  • I downloaded pages from the app store and I can use it on my Mac login but it doesn't show up when my wife logs in to her account? Were using the same computer, just different logins.

    No. You need to buy it for your Apple ID and for the other. You will have problems with updates

  • My sister and I each have an ipod touch. We use the same computer and itunes but each have our own apple id. Everytime I want to update an app on my ipod it asks for my sisters apple id login!? help!

    My sister and I each have an ipod touch. We use the same computer and itunes but each have our own apple id. Everytime I want to update an app on my ipod it asks for my sisters apple id login!? help!

    When it asks for another ID on an App Update, it means that the application was purchased under your sister's ID but downloaded to your device from the iTunes library that you share. Even though you both have your own Apple IDs, since you are syncing on the same computer, you are using the same iTunes library.
    Whoever purchased the app is forever tied to it, and you can only have one version of a particular app in a single library....
    Does that make sense?

  • I was login a website ,and i have opened cookies , i want to open another window to login the same website use another account , and in the same windows can use the same account , how can i achieve it ? thinks

    i want to use firefox to login a website ,in the same window and different tags can user the same session
    but when i open other window and login the same website use different account .
    how can i achieve it ? thinks

    Your problem has nothing to do with the faults or limitations of a web browser.
    ''There can be only ONE active user logged in on a specific website during a whole Browsing Session. Even if you try to log-in using a new window it will sign-out the earlier User ID from that website. It will keep the most recent logged-in User ID active.''
    This is the general policy on which all websites are built. Even if you try to login the same website from another web browser, you won't be able to login from the second platform either. I just check it. Tried on Mozilla and Internet Explorer.

  • When I'm sending a imessage to the same person sometimes it goes as a imessage

    why when I'm sending a imessage to the same person to changes from imessage to text and do they receive the text?

    If not connected to WiFi or cellular data, iMessages will go as SMS. Also, if the receipent has iMessage turned off, or not connected to WiFi or cellular data, they will go as SMS.

  • The same user can only login once

    Hello,
    I have a problem with my system. I made a system where you must login.
    I use the following code:
    boolean login = false;
    String username= request.getParameter("username");
    String password= request.getParameter("password");
    User user= Usermutations.makeviaUsername(username);
    if (user.getPassword().equals(password) && !password.equals("")) login= true;
    if (login) ReqD = getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/Overview.jsp");
    else ReqD = getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/False.jsp");
    request.getSession().setAttribute("user",user);
    request.getSession().setAttribute("username",username);
    request.getSession().setAttribute("password",password);
    if (ReqD != null) ReqD.forward(request,response);
    //Clean up resources
    public void destroy()
    Now I want that the same user can only login once. So when a user login with his username and password, no one else can login with that user name and password.
    I don't wan't to put the username in the database and then validate if the user is already logged in, because then the user must logout and not close the webbrowser else the user stays in the system.
    Does anyone knows a solution top this problem.
    Thanks in advance,
    Henk

    So I wan't the database and when the user is logged in
    the name is set in the database. But when the user
    clicks on the X (close button in the browser his
    username must be deleted from the database)You can't tell when the user does that (or perhaps you can sometimes, with difficulty). But even if you could it doesn't solve your problem. Many people keep their browsers open all day, and -- you may find this shocking -- they go to sites other than yours.
    So basically, if you don't provide them with a logout button you can't tell when they "leave" your site. And even if you do provide them with a logout button, they won't necessarily bother to use it. So you're left with waiting until the session expires, and then logging them out. This also means that if they come back to your site while the session is still active, then they are still logged in. This is not an error and you should not treat it as one.

  • HT204053 Seems my iCloud password is not the same as my iTunes.  Where do I go to reset my iCloud password?  I cannot access anything when prompted to put in my iCloud password because I do NOT KNOW it.  Thanks!

    Seems my iCloud password is not the same as my iTunes.  Where do I go to reset my iCloud password?  I cannot access anything when prompted to put in my iCloud password because I do NOT know it.  Thanks!  I've used my iTunes password for everything else Apple does and would like to use the same one for my iCloud.

    Do the following:
    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) 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 back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

  • Have synced my iPhone numerous times and some of the memos in "Voice Memos" on my iPhone wont go over to my iTunes program on my computer. I have a folder titled "Voice Memos" on my iPhone and one of the same name on iTunes on my computer.

    I have synced my iPhone numerous times and some of the memos in "Voice Memos" on my iPhone wont go over to my iTunes program on my computer. I have a folder titled "Voice Memos" on my iPhone and one of the same name on iTunes on my computer. But after I sync I only get 6 out of the 9 voice memos on my iPhone.
    How do I get the rest (or all) of the memos from my iPhone copied to my computer?

    "I have logged in to my itunes account on a different computer and none of my purchased music is showing up."
    Correct.  it does not magially appear in other places.  It will only be where you put it.
    "I also have plugged my iphone in to get updates but it says I will lose all media and apps if I don't update on the computer where  I sync everything. "
    Correct as well.  Iphone will sync with one computer at a time.  Syncing to another will erase the current content.
    You need to copy everything ( itunes library/contacts/pics/calendars/files/docs) from the old computer, or your backup copy of the old one, to the new one.

  • HT5731 How can I download my TV episodes to my Macbook Pro. I bought them from my iPad2, and I looked for them with the same AppleID on iTunes Store and they wont download to my iTunes.

    How can I download my TV episodes to my Macbook Pro. I bought them from my iPad2, and I looked for them with the same AppleID on iTunes Store and they wont download to my iTunes.

    What country are you in ? Depending upon what country that you are in then you might be able to redownload them on your Mac's iTunes via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the iTunes store homepage
    If you're not in a country where TV programmes can be redownloaded then connect the iPad to your Mac's iTunes and use the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over from your iPad

  • HT201493 I have 2 iphones on the same apple id/itunes account, how do I give them different IDs?

    I have 2 iphones (mine & my wife's) on the same apple id/itunes account, how do I give them different IDs?

    I am having the same issue.
    There is no possible way Apple didn't think this the whole way thru!
    Why in the world would I want to create an new Apple ID for everyone in my family & over complicate things?!?  "Face Time" and "Messages" can tie several devices to on Apple ID driven by contact email or phone number.  I am hard pressed to believe that Find my Friends can't be set up in a similar format.
    Please help because this is frustrating me to the point of smashing an iPhone or 2!!

  • Multiple iphones each with an apple id - can i use the same laptop and itunes for back up, restore and updates?

    We have two iphones each with a different apple id - can i use the same laptop and itunes for back up, restore and updates without risking having my apps overwritten.  Basically does itunes keep the two iphones as two separate entities ?  Does iTunes differentiate between the two devices and keep two different SYNCs ?

    Yes, you can use the same computer for BACK UPS, RESTORING AND UPDATING. But that is it.
    You cannot, however, use it to sync the different devices. iTunes will only recognize one device to sync with and if you sync any other devices with that iTunes library, it will replace what is on the phone with whatever is in the library. It cannot differentiate between devices. At most, it will jsut recognize that the phone has been synced with a different iTunes library.
    So if you would like to use the same computer for backing up, restoring and updating, just make sure to turn of Automatic Syncing in your iTunes Preferences.

    Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folder.
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line below to select it:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
    Quit and relaunch Mail, and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Post your results.
    Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
