Welcome to the Apple Community.
Yes you should supply another address, no you won't lose your purchases.

  • Have a macbook with the old fashioned trackpad. Sometimes when I am typing, it seems like someone clicks my trackpad. I have set my macbook up to where you have to press the trackpad button instead of just tap the track pad. Any ideas?

    Sometimes during the "old-fashion" macbooks there is different feelings in the way you control it. Take it to the apple store and I am Pretty sure they can tell you what is going on and if it is "Time for a Upgrade".

  • The hard drive on our computer died and we lost all of our purchases in the account. Is there a way to recover the songs we have paid for? If we plug in our iPod to a new account, won't it erase everything during the synch process? Help!

    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy of your computer ( not good), then transfer purchases form your ipod.
    Without syncing, click File>Transfer Purchases

  • Old adobe ID needed to authorise this computer so I can read all my books I have paid for

    I need to recover my old adobe id in order to authorise this computer so I can open the books I have paid for. When I installed sony reader to this (my new) computer it wouldn't allow me to open any books I have paid for. Sony says this is to do with my adobe id so I tried a few weeks ago to sign in using my adobe id (1st time in 3 years). Now I couldn't remember my username but it said it was probably my email address but then it told me you didn't recognise my email address. I have not changed my email address in the past 6 years at all but I could have entered it as [email protected] or co.uk or I could have put in googlemail instead of gmail. I always enter it as [email protected] now. I signed up again but that doesn't help me with my books I have bought so I need you to help me find my old adobe id.
    Thanks

    Do you have your old computer still.  If so, go to digital editions on it, and in the Library view do menu/Library/Authroize Computer.
    That will tell you the email it was registered with.
    There is a long-winded way (below) to find the internal AdobeID a book belongs to,
    I don't know if having got that internal ID whether Adobe service are able to tell you what the external ID (email) assocated with the internal ID is.
    I have made this comment before but nobody has responded whether it helped or not .....
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    OK.  To find the internal AdobeID.
    open a sample DRM .epub file as a .zip file.
    With some zip programs, you can just open the .epub as an archive (ev, with 7zip),
    with others you will have to rename the .epub file to a .zip file first, then open it.
    find the file 'rights.xml' within the zip.  Probably  'META-INF\rights.xml'
    open the rights.xml file
    inside you will find a section '<user>' that looks something like
    <user>urn:uuid:ff2ddc22-eca0-46c6-a84d-xxxxxxxxxxxx</user>
    That string is the internal version for your AdobeID.
    That stays fixed for the AdobeID, even if you change the associated email (or password),
    that internal ID is what is really associated with the book.
    (n.b. there is no point in trying to change the urn to a current one you might find and recreating the .epub file; the DRM is cleverer than that).
    You can now contact Adobe at Adobe Live Chat: http://www.adobe.com/support/chat/ivrchat.html
    It may be that if you can give them that internal ID they will be able to get you access to your account again.
    If they say they can't, it might be worth trying two or three times at intervals;
    it seems from what others have said that some of the representatives are very clued up, but others are not.
    (I've never used the Live Chat).
    If you do go through all that, let us know how you got on.

  • HT201272 How can I redown load song I have paid for.

    I need your help in down loading song that I had paid for in the pass 6 mth.
    My compter when down so, I had to get it fix, but my song was on lift on the system.
    Please help!
    James

    If you have a current broken entry for the song delete it from iTunes. If prompted don't hide it from iTunes in the Cloud. Then go to iTunes Store > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer. There should be a download link for the track there. You may sometimes need to close and reopen iTunes for it to update the list of available tracks.

  • My Iphone 3gs has turned itself off and will now not come back on! I have connected it to the laptop and tried rebooting it but nothing is happening! Any suggestions please???

    Help!!

    My I Phone 3GS did exactly the same. Tried holding the buttons, syncing it to my laptop, plugging it in to the mains (it didn't even beep).
    I rang my service provider (Orange) but they couldnt fix it. They passed me onto Apple. Who went through everything. But no joy.
    Apple sent me a box to return my mobile to them.  Now I have no mobile and have to wait to hear from Apple..
    I'm gutted cause no mobile now :-((

  • TS4009 Why am I receiving emails saying that I have exceeded my iCloud storage, when the methods above show that I am using  4Gb of the 50Gb I have paid for?

    Why am I receiving emails saying that I have exceeded my iCloud storage, when the methods above show that I am using  <4Gb of the 50Gb I have paid for?

    The problem could be that you don't have enough storage on the device itself, not on iCloud.  Go to Settings>General>Usage to see how much "Storage" you have available.  Farther down the list is the available storage on iCloud.
    Also check:
    Go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backups>Manage Storage; there, tap the device you need info on and the resulting screen lists Backup Options with which apps store data on iCloud.
    A device needs many MB of storage in order to perform a backup to iCloud.

  • I changed my primary email and icloud is still set for my old email. I tried deleting my icloud but it aks me for the old password associated with the old email that I don't have anymore. Any other sugestions on how to get icloud to change emails on my i

    I changed my primary email and icloud is still set for my old email. I tried deleting my icloud but it aks me for the old password associated with the old email that I don't have anymore. Any other sugestions on how to get icloud to change emails on my ios?

    I figured it out! I changed my email & password at the icloud site, then when I deleted the icloud account on my iphone - it still showed my old email but when i typed in my current password it went through. I was then able to sign back in with my current email and password. That was too easy for the amount of time I have put into this!  Glad its finally fixed.
