Is there a way to determine the Apple ID used to set up an iPod Touch?

Hi, I am helping a friend with a new computer to sync his iPod Touch 4th generation and update to iOS 5.1 hopefully. The iPod is running the iOS version that as on it out of the box. 4.x.x. Never updated.
He does not know if his Apple ID was used to set up his iTouch or the ID of the person who did the original setup. I've read some discussions about people who are locked out of a computer for 90 days if it is associated with a different ID. Trying to avoid this on his new computer. He has Windows 7 Home Premium 64 on the new unit if that is helpful.
We downloaded the latest version on iTunes and reset the password on his Apple ID two days ago. I hesitiate to move forward with the iPod sync as I don't want to lock him out of the iTunes store for 90 days if we use the wrong ID.
Thanks for any help. I know this is an unusual situation. Goal is to set him up on one ID and stay there. Thanks again.

If you have turned on Settings > iCloud > Find My you will have to start by turning that off - requires entering the Apple ID password. Then remove the Apple ID from all places it is used, i.e., Messages, FaceTime, and so on. Go to the App Store and then Sign Out. Now you can enter the desired Apple ID and password in all of those places.

Is there a way to connect the Apple TV as a second display without it automatically changing my Mac's audio output?

Is there a way to connect the Apple TV as a second display without it automatically changing my Mac's audio output? I would prefer to use an audio interface for playback and the apple tv as a third display. I know I can go back to system preferences and swap my output back manually, but it is getting to be really inconvienient. Thoughts?

Is there a way to change the Apple ID you're using on your iPhone?

I recently got an iPhone 3 and I am using my brothers ID to download apps but he won't tell me his password and its really inconvenient having to ask him to put it in every time, so I was wondering if theres a way to change the one your using as I have another on I can now use instead. Please if you have any thoughts on how to do this please tell me. Thanks

Hi,
try
Settings->Store
click on the existing appleId (your brothers), click 'sign out'. You should then be able to sign-in, but this time select 'Create New Apple ID'

HT4436 is there a way to change the apple ID on an Icloud account? I used to share everything with my daughter but she's old enough we need to separate the accounts.. I would like to "give" the ICloud account to her, because all of her games are on it.

Is there a way to change the apple ID on an Icloud account? I would like to "give" an ICloud account to my daughter. We used to share one, but she's getting older I would like to split our accounts. She has her own Apple ID but since all her games are on this ICloud account, I would like to give it to her and start my own.

You can migrate your device and a copy of the iCloud data to a new account. To do this, start by saving any photo stream photos you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow, then tapping Save to Camera Roll. If you are syncing notes with iCloud, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; your daughter's device won't be effected by this), choose Keep on My iPad and provide the password when prompted. Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload the data.
Once you are on separate accounts you can each go to icloud.com and delete the other person's data from your account.
The existing iCloud email account cannot be moved to your new account so you will need to give your contacts your new email address if you are giving the account to your daughter.

HT204053 Our macs were set up with an incorrect Apple ID. Is there any way to change the Apple ID associated with these macs?

Our macs were set up with an incorrect Apple ID. Is there any way to change the Apple ID associated with these macs? This causes increased frustration during the updating process. After maverick we cannot edit the id being used anymore.

If you can prove ownership to the Macs, call Apple Care and request the Account Security Team.

I scanned an image and want to use the image trace tool, but it doesn't pick up all the lines. Is there a way to darken the lines before using the image trace tool? Help!

If the scan is in B&W, then play with the Threshold setting here
If it's in Color, then you will have to open the scan in a Raster editing software (like Photoshop) and play with the Brightness/Contrast settings to make the lines bolder.

No! Apple is not law enforcement and therefore does not have personal investigating lost or stolen property other than Apple's own.
Even if they had the information data protection laws would prevent them from giving it to you or anybody else including law enforcement.

Is there a way to download my MacLife magazines (currently through Newsstand) on my iPod Touch 4, to either my Mac Air, or even an extra drive, so that I can read them. All of my subscriptions were deleted due to insufficient memory.

Is there a way to operate the command key using the mouse?

I am working with a student who has limited movement of his hands. He is able to operate a mouse. However, he cannot operate the mouse and make key commands at the same time. Is there any way to adapt the mouse so command key actions can be carried out without pressing the key?

Look inside System Preference "Universal Access" (or whatever even more politically correct name it is called now).
There is a feature called "Sticky keys". That says that when you press the command key in a certain way, it stays pressed (It is "Sticky").
There are also two and three button mouse devices that can be used readily on a Mac (including the "Mighty Mouse" with the little rollerball) that can register one, two, or three button operations.

Is there a way to change the line-endings used by the Flash Professional AS editor?

The Flash ActionScript editor seems to save files on the Mac with an arcane CR (carriage-return) line-ending, instead of using LF or CRLF.
This messes up with my version-control system (git) which doesn't support files with such line-endings.
Is there any way to make the ActionScript save with another line-ending? I wouldn't mind editing some config files manually if that's what it takes.
