ITunes account - serial number needs correcting

I upgraded my Blackberry to an IPhone 4 on Friday;  as I did not have an ITunes account I set one up, but by mistake I entered the wrong number as the serial number of my phone.  I actually put the vodaphone simcard numbe.  I am keen to correct this important detail as soon as possible.  Can you tell me how, please? thanks

Sorry, but I'm confused. The iTunes Store doesn't ask for the serial number of your iPhone when you set up an account in the Store. Are you referring to the registration of the iPhone with Apple? If so, just go through the registration again, using the correct serial number this time:
https://register.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/GlobaliReg.woa
though if that is indeed what you mean, I'm surprised it would even take a non-Apple serial number.
If that's not what you meant, please post back and clarify.
Regards.

  • I'm getting this error message: "User not registered for online use" when i'm trying to download music/ track names from a CD into ITunes on my Windows 8 PC.  I'm registered and my itunes account/ appleID are all correct and working.

    I'm getting this error message: "User not registered for online use" when i'm trying to download music/ track names from a CD into ITunes on my Windows 8 PC.  I'm registered and my itunes account/ appleID are all correct and working.

    The ""not recognized for on-line use". error is associated with the Gracenote service that iTunes uses to look up and retrieve metadata for CDs.  Some users have reported that this error occurs when trying to import from CD, subsequent to upgrading to version 12.  A number of slightly different solutions have been reported (though all of a similar nature).
    Try walking through the following steps - before starting you may have to enable hidden files and folders to be viewed - in Windows 7 / Windows Explorer select Organize > Folder and search options, then on the View tab make sure that Show hidden files, folders and drives is selected.  Without this you won't see the AppData folder in C:\Users\username\
    Exit iTunes
    In Windows Explorer, go to the folder C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
    Delete the following files:
    CD Info.cidb
    com.apple.iTunes.Gracenote.plist
    Restart iTunes
    Insert a CD and see if details are now correctly retrieved from Gracenote
    If this doesn't work:
    In iTunes, select Edit > Preferences and make a note (or take a screenshot) of your preferences settings in all relevant tabs
    Exit iTunes
    In Windows Explorer, go to the folder C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
    Delete the following file:iTunesPrefs.xml
    Restart iTunes
    Insert a CD and see if details are now correctly retrieved from Gracenote
    If this second procedure does work, you'll need to restore other iTunes preferences settings to those that you noted in step 1.
    If this one didn't work:
    Exit iTunes
    Check the following folders:
    C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes
    C:\Users\username\AppData\LocalLow\Apple Computer\iTunes
    Delete any copies of the following files:
    CD Info.cidb
    com.apple.iTunes.Gracenote.plist
    iTunesPrefs.xml
    Restart iTunes
    Insert a CD and see if details are now correctly retrieved from Gracenote
    Again, if this procedure does work, you'll need to restore other iTunes preferences settings to those that you noted in step 1 of the second procedure. If you're still not able to retrieve CD info:
    Exit iTunes
    In Windows, select Start > Control Panel > Programs and Features.  Find the entry for iTunes, right-click and select Repair.
    When this process has finished, restart iTunes
    Insert a CD and see if details are now correctly retrieved from Gracenote
    If none of these have worked (and almost everything I've seen suggests you should be OK by this point), you may have an issue with the installation and configuration of iTunes itself.  If you have got this far, see turingtest2's notes on Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for advice on how to remove and replace of all components of iTunes.

    apart from the fact there's no way I could have answered your question confidently, I was also not able to supply my non-answer within your very tight time constraints.
    what happened? how'd you get on?

    This has been reported numerous times in the past. It seesms that from time-to-time the response system responsible for sending the key goes away.
    Take a look at the More Like This box on the right hand side of this page. Some users have had success getting the key sent in various ways.

  • Dose the serial number need to be changed and how when selling Adobe Photoshop Elements 9

    Dose the serial number need to be changed and how when selling Adobe Photoshop Elements 9

    No, the serial number goes with the product. You should deactivate all your installed copies before selling it. Also, if you've used it qualify for upgrade pricing on a later version you can't sell it. Well, you could but the new owner won't be able to install it.
    Adobe does have a license transfer document, but not many people bother with it:

        Hello mooseinutah, getting a new phone is always exciting! You will want to make sure to setup 2 separate Apple Id & passwords for each phone so that contacts & stored information are not merged between both devices.

  • TS1292 How do I find the Itunes card serial number?

    Which is the Itune card serial number? on the back of the card....

    Serial numbers usually begin with the letters "GCA" or "60" and are 16 digits. Some cards may have a serial number that begins with EPY and are 14 digits. One example is shown below.

  • Reinstall iTunes with serial number typo?

    When I installed iTunes from the CD that came with my 60 GB video iPod, I typed one digit incorrectly (a 5 instead of an S) in the serial number. I de-installed all software and re-installed, this time only using the update iPod and iTunes files from Apple's website. The "new" installation did not ask me to re-enter my iPod serial number or my personal information as the original install did. Should I de-install again and maybe this time remove the iPod, iTunes and QT folders in the Windows XP Pro's :C drive's Programs Folder? Where is this serial and personal information kept by Apple? Would I also uninstall both iPod Updater and iTunes/QTime? I'm afraid to buy any iTunes until everything is correct, so my lost time is the only casualty to date. What do I do?

    Go to the link below then select your program and system and you will have access to all the available downloads.

  • Change from PC to mac, new serial number needed?

    I installed cs6 on my pc and recently bought a new mac. I tried installing on the mac, but its telling me the serial number is invalid. I know pc and macs need different serial numbers, but my account only provides one serial number, the one I used on to install on my PC. How do I get another serial number for my mac?

    They also need different versions of the software.
    You would have to buy a new serial number (and version) if you wish to use CS6 on both the PC and the Mac.  You can swap to having the Mac version but that will leave you without the PC being able to run the software.
    Order product | Platform, language swap
    The Creative Cloud is the only offering available that supports both platforms with the same subscription.

    As Niel stated, you cannot merge them.
    You can keep the purchased items in your iTunes library and use them with no issues.
    Just pick one of the AppleIDs and stick with that one.
