My computer recognizes my new ipad mini as my husbands ipad. How can I change this and reset it?

We just got a new ipad mini and somehow we messed up and it thinks it is my husbands ipad. help. How can I fix this and start over?

Itunes Issue 1st otherwise this will keep happening
go to itunes and in the tool bar menu locate preferences
when you open prefrenece the pop up window should have a tab labled Devices. In here locate a sentenece that says "Prevent iPods, iPads, and iPhones from syning automaticlly" check off the box
then if there is no datat to be lost resrore the device back to its factory settings "select the RESTORE tab" what you wanna do is set up as a new device and not restore from a backup.
Use iTunes to restore the device

I entered the wrong e-mail address on my new IPAD how can I change it?

If you are talking about your Apple ID - go to Settings>Store>Apple ID - tap the incorrect ID and sign out. Then sign in with the correct ID.

If you have been syncing your old iPad regularly with your computer you can sync the new iPad to the same computer and transfer your stuff easily that way.

Hello, osbybass.
Thank you for the question. This alert can mean that iTunes is recognizing applications on the iPad purchased by another Apple ID. If anyone in your household has an Apple ID, try authorizing the computer with their Apple ID and attempt to sync. If you are still experiencing issues, go through the troubleshooting steps in the attached article.

Someone hacked my computer and set up a new administrative account by re-registering my computer. I can not access this account nor delete it. How can I fix this and get my computer back to the way it was?

Someone hacked my computer and set up a new administrative account by re-registering my computer. I can not access this account nor delete it. How can I fix this and get my computer back to the way it was? And also prevent this from being able to happen again. I have the link the kid used (http://www.ihackintosh.com/2009/05/how-to-hack-the-user-password-in-mac-os-x-wit hout-an-os-x-cd/) Apparently he used hack 2. HELP PLEASE!

Not sure why you can't delete that account. If you have admin privileges, you should be able to. Sounds like you only removed the Home Folder for that account.
You should highlight/select the account you want to remove and then click the minus button. Might need to unlock the padlock with your admin password.
Have a look at these articles from Apple, if necessary.

i have 3 different itunes accounts and would like to combine them into just one for all my devices, a macbook pro, an iphone 4S, an older IPOD, and a ver sion one Ipad. how can i do this on all devices ?

i had one for a long time, then when i got the ipad i didn't realize they would all still work under one so i set up the second one on that
then when i got the new iphone i put in the info for the first and main one from my mac pro and it would not work at all, and i knew it was right, then it asked me to create a new one or i couldnt finish the setup
hence why i have 3 now
hard to believe you cannot combine into one
oh well, i will just make them all accessible for all 3
thanks

When I create a New Folder (on the desktop or in Finder), the system uses the Generic Document Icon instead of the Generic Folder Icon. How can I change this back?

When I create a New Folder (on the desktop or in Finder), the system uses the Generic Document Icon instead of the Generic Folder Icon. How can I change this back?
All of a sudden I noticed that most of the folders on my computer were no longer using the folder icon, but the generic document icon. I had to manually change back the icon being used by opening Get Info for each folder and copying and pasting the generic folder icon from some folders that remained unchanged. Now whenever I create a New Folder (right click -> "New Folder"), the icon that shows up is the generic document icon (white page with top right corner turned down). And I have to manually change it so it shows up as a folder in Finder or on my desktop. I don't know why or how this switch happened. All of the folders now on my computer look ok, but I need to change the default so when I create a New Folder it uses the correct icon.
I have also Forced Relaunch of my Finder and rebooted the system. I downloaded Candybar but am not sure what will fix anything, so I haven't proceeded.
Anyone know how I can do this? Thanks.

Anyone?

Tap on the id in Settings > Store and log out of it and then login with your id. Any content already on the iPad will be tied to the previous owner's id and it can't be copied or transferred to your id - so it's probably best to do restore the iPad back to factory defaults and start as from new with it : Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Contents And Settings

When I right click on a link "Open link in new tab" since a few days, it "jumps over" the tab to the right and opens in the tab next to that. How can I change this back to opening in the tab next to the page from which I opened as it used to be?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

I bought a new laptop (Macbook) but the current installation files I have of Photoshop Elements 12 is for Windows, how can I change this? Or do I have to purchase an all new photoshopset?

Can anyone help me with this question?
I bought a new laptop (Macbook) but the current installation files I have of Photoshop Elements 12 is for Windows, how can I change this? Or do I have to purchase an all new photoshopset? I hope not because that would be really expensive.

Really? That's extremely unusual. Have you looked at all the discs? In any case you can download the mac version here:
