Keychain was not set up correctly, and i can't figure out how to edit or change the phone number for it. can anyone help?
I did the whole thing when i bought my MBP, now a year or so later its getting more annoying asking for my keychain password aldo keychain seems like a neat feature that i don't want any info texted or sent to the other number i entered.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select
Change Settings for Keychain "login"
In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
From the menu bar, select
Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
If the box marked
Keep login keychain unlocked
is not checked, check it.
Select
Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

I have an old version on my iPad 4.3.3 and can't figure out how to upgrade. Per the manual "Software Upgrades" is not an option from the General Settings.
The option to update without the computer (Over the air) was made available with iOS 5. If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
Also read the instructions from the section entitled "Update your device using iTunes" at the link below.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
Information regarding transferring purchases from your iDevice to iTunes on your syncing computer can be found at the link below.

I have Pages 09 and I have created a business card using the template but can't figure out how to duplicate it to the other 9 spaces on the page. I am and sure I am going to look daft coz its only the click of a button but I can't work it out Thanks
I do the following: Hold down the command key and highlight all the items to be reproduced. Then hold down option and drag the items from the first to each subsequent card.

I filmed several takes of the same scene for a movie. I trimmed the best clips from each take and put them into the project screen. However, I can't figure out how to make it flow seamlessly as one scene. Can someone please help me??

If your computer is on one minute before it freezes, than you have one minute to secure your serial number.
click the apple----->click about this Mac ------> click on version----> until you see the serial number. You may have to do this a couple of times if it freezes before you have all the numbers. A camera might help.
Good Luck -
I have an older iPod (80GB) which I used to be able to sync, but now the iTunes format has changed and I cannot figure out how to sync it. The tutorial showed a page that should pop up when the device is connected to my authorized PC, but that page does not appear. Any suggestions? I need to sync my device to transfer newer music.
If you have a PC, Control S brings back that familiar side bar on the left side. That might help. I'm also going to askt he hosts to relocated this post in the iPod forum. This is the iPad part and you may get more device specific info there.

in a window on the left under devices and I would just drag playlist over from my library but now device is in the right hand corner and I can't figure out
how to drag music over. Help pleaseYou're welcome.
Also, when you get a chance, backup your iTunes purchases to an external drive or burn to CD's.

How do I change the phone number for IM and FaceTime?
Since my update to IOS 6 my FaceTime and IM are using my wife's phone number and I can't change it to mine. The email address are editable but the phone number is not. Help?
All of my devises are updated to iOS6. But after reading your reply I tried turning off iM and face time in all three devices, powered them all down for 10 minutes. I turned my phone back on first (the one I wanted associated with my iPad) then turned on my iPad. I turned on iM and face time on my phone, then the iPad. In came up with all my info including my (correct number) phone number. Then I turned on my wife's phone and turned her iM and FaceTime on. Her number also popped up in the iPad but I could choose what number I wanted to use and left hers off. Her phone number is associated with my iTunes acc because we share all of our music and apps. For a little privacy you'll have to make a separate iTunes acc to completely get the unwanted number off the iPad. As long as both numbers are there you can switch between phone numbers and see iM messaging.
So basically the phone numbers in the iPad are edited thru the individual phones, iTunes acc and not the iPad itself.
Hope this helped if you're having the same issue. -
Need to change the Apple ID programmed into my iPhone
The simplest way to change the ID is to go to Settings > App Store
Tap your Apple ID. Sign in with the current ID, then sign out
Now, sign in with the new ID
Please be advised however that all apps purchased under the previous ID will forever be tied to that ID. This means you will either want to re-download the free apps you had under the old ID and re-buy the apps you purchased, or you will need to sign out every time there is an update on apps you have and sign in under the old ID to update those apps. -

Yes there is, scroll down to the bottom of the following Switch 101 article and click on the arrow next to Manually migrating.

I synced my iphone, now I do not have my apps or my calendar on phone. How do I get them back onto phone? Things were great before sync...
The only way to do so is to start over: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings. You won't be able to use the backup of your old phone unless you are setting up a new phone.

I have an iPhone 4s and it keeps asking me to sign in using my old Apple ID and I have a new(ish) Apple ID that I've been using for several months, since before I even got the iPhone, but it's still not using my new ID. The new ID is on my iTunes and iPod, but isn't on the iPhone. I can't figure out how to edit or change my Apple ID in the settings. Help me?
Hi,
I have the same exact problem, and I see no one has posted a correct answer for you. Alexbird's reply didn't help. Can someone give us the correct answer?
My old email address is on my new iPhone 4s, and I can't change it. In the store on the iPhone 4s it correctly has my new email address. iTunes also correctly has the new email address.
I can't update my apps because the old email address is stuck in there, and no password is being accepted.
(By the way, as much as I attempted to read all of the warnings online about how to back-up and transfer data from my iPhone 3gs to my iPhone 4s, sure enough apps were lost. I wish instructions on 'Fingertips' had been clearer)
Thanks! -
My dad has dementia - does not remember his password. His hard drive has been erased. We need to reload Mountain Lion and can't figure out how to do it. Internet recovery asks for his Apple ID and password. He has no idea. I have an Apple ID but have never bought anything through the iTunes store so it won't accept my Apple ID. I don't know if his computer is under warranty. He does not remember if he has Applecare. I tried reinstalling Leopard -- the computer originally came with Leopard -- but the computer screen goes grey and a message comes up saying I need to restart. He wants to give this computer to me since it's useless to him. What do I do to get a system on it again?
You will need to reformat the hard drive to go back to Snow Leopard or Leopard.
Does he have a Snow Leopard Disk? He should, as there is no way to go from Leopard to Mountain Lion without it. If you can find the Snow Leopard Disk, I'd at least start with that.
You will need to use Disk Utility in the installer to format the hard drive and get rid of the recovery partition.
Boot from the installer disk by holding down the C key on restart. When it boots, Open Disk Utility (Utilities menu, at least in Snow Leopard).
Select the Hard drive and then click the Partition tab.
Select 1 Partition from the partition menu.
Select Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as the format.
Name the drive (Macintosh HD is the standard).
Click Apply to partition the drive.
When it is done, quit Disk Utility and install the OS.
