My employer is issuing an iPad 4 to me, but has informed me that I "...can expect no privacey" of any personal information that may be put on the iPad. This is not acceptable to me. How can I use iTunes to keep my personal information off the iPad?

My employer is issuing an iPad 4 to me, but has informed me that "...I can expect no privacy" with regard to any information on it. What has me concerned is that my employer has also requested that I use my Persoanl iTunes account to syc and update the iPad. I am concerend with my personal privacey, as I have two other iPads that use this account regualary.
My question is: How can I use iTunes to update etc. the company iPad using iTunes without compromising my personal information?
What I have done is to set up a different sign in (is that called an Apple ID?) within iTunes (I now have two different names I can use to sign in to iTunes). They both still use the same iTunes and my personal apps and information appear to be available to my second sign in name (the second sign in name is what I intend to use for the company iPad). When I sync the company iPad how do/can I keep my persoanl information from being syc'd automatically to the comapany iPad?

Hi herbie13!
It sounds like you will still want to link your iPad and computer, but you want to prevent the iPad from syncing information from your computer to your iPad. I have an article here for you that can help tell you how to set this up:
iOS: Syncing with iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1386
You will want to follow the steps here to set up the iPad for syncing, but when it comes time to sync, you'll just want to make sure that the boxes for syncing the multitude of items that you can sync remain unchecked so that none of that information gets synced into the iPad.
Another note: your second Apple ID will not be able to access the apps, music, movies, tv shows, etc., that you have purchased under your primary Apple ID. Even though it seems that the secondary Apple ID still has access to those items, that is just because you are viewing your second Apple ID through the iTunes Store section on your computer and you have those items saved locally on your computer. You will need to repurchase and download all of the content that you wish to use again on your second Apple ID, if that is what you wish to solely use on this iPad.
Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

You can turn Find My iPad 'off' by going to http://icloud.com and logging into your account, select the iPad from the device list in the 'Find My iPhone' section on that site, and 'remove from account'

HT5312 i could not follow anything, it needs to be clearer, and i all i wanted was to find the answers to my questions, you told me how to make an itunes account. and i'm pretty sure the questions used to be "first teacher" and "favorite teacher"not partn

HELP i just could not figure out how to find the answers to my security questions, and i do believe that the questions used to be "who was your first teacher" and "who was your favorite teacher" but now the second one is "where did you and your partner go on there first trip together, so now i'm wondering if i dont even have the answers anymore! why, have you changed the questions, and i really am having trouble following the help pages. i need help, it wont let me buy any songs or apps, so i've been saving the links and names to songs.

We are fellow users on these forums, you're not talking to Apple or iTunes Support.
If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 on the page that you posted from should let you reset them : go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account, then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you won't get the reset option - you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use.

HT2515 My cam works fine with every program except yahoo. If I just sign into yahoo or even if I use ichat for yahoo, the webcam button will not highlight up. How can I fix this and/or what am I doing wrong?

Hello, my father recently passed (using his ID) and I took over the payments on his mac and took his computer. I am not that familiar with mac, but am usually computer savy. However, this one has me stumped. I have no problem starting the built in cam and it seems to work fine with all other programs I've tried using it with. However, it will not work with yahoo. Whether I use normal yahoo messenger or if I try using Yahoo through I chat. The cam button will not light up, therefore, it is not clickable. Which ultimately means I cannot use my cam on yahoo, which is something I use 99% of the time compared to other programs. So why is this happening and what solutions can I take to try and fix this? The mac I am using is: Mac OS X, Version 10.7.4
Thank you for any and all help, it is much appreciated.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
1) If the iTunes preference window is open when you connect your iPod, the iPod will not be recognized by iTunes.
Also, iPods can work with many iTunes libraries, so that is not the problem here.
Is all the software on your computer up to date?
iTunes
iPod Updater
Updating iPod's Software
Does the iPod show up in My Computer when connected to your computer? Does it say Do Not Disconnect?
Try the steps listed here...
iPod shows up in Windows but not in iTunes
If you are going to use your iPod with multiple iTunes libraries (home and school)...
Using iPod with multiple computers
2) What part aren't you understanding. Here are a couple of free programs you can use to convert videos...
MPEG Streamclip
Videora iPod Converter
The programs should come with documentation and instructions to convert videos.
3) You can go to file-->add file to library, file-->add folder to library, or have iTunes open and drag the files into the iTunes library while viewing the library.. You can also import from CDs.
iTunes needs to be adding the songs to the iPod. You cannot just add the song files to the iPod.

I wanted to watch tv on demands but says this is not HTML5 delivery so how can I get this to work on ipad so I can catch up my tv program any help?

How can I get tv on demands working on my iPad as wanted to watch my program but it says HTML5 not supported on this, so any ideas that can help?

HTML5 is supported on the iPad but I assume that the site that you are going to doesn't yet support it. Does the site have it's own app - here in the UK the TV channels have their own apps, plus there are apps such as TVCatchup.

In FF4 the opensearch detection does not seem to work. how can I add a search engine , that has an opensearch xml but no plugin?

if you go to a webpage with an opensearch link tag like "<link rel="search" type="application/opensearchdescription+xml...." FF3.x highlighted the small arrow left of the search box and you could add the search engine. this does not seem to work in FF4.
If a searchengine for example for the intranet, does not offer a plugin, just the opnesearch xml, how can one add it to the search engines in FF4?

You do not get the blue glow on the search engine icon in Firefox 4, but you should still see the "Add ... site" entry in the menu if you click the search engines icon on the Navigation Toolbar.

How do I use iTunes store credits to purchase products from the iTunes store?

Recently, I tried this and was asked to update details of a credit card associated with my Apple i.d. but could not see an option to use my available iTunes credit.
Thanks

It uses the credit first. Once the credit is gone, it will charge to the card on file.
You need do nothing but make the purchase.

How do I get the default zooming to not include images or how can I resize everything but actual images?

I have a problem with the default zooming in firefox Using default layout.css.devPixelsPerPx=-1 or layout.css.devPixelsPerPx=1.5 makes all UI and webpage text look nice and readable, spacing is fine and everything. The only problem is that images are ALSO zoomed which is ridiculous. I guess I would like a way to scale everything BUT images. I have a hi-resolution monitor and think it's silly to have to zoom out every image on a web page just because I wanted text and the UI enlarged. I tried NoSquint using 65% for pages and 150% for text only, but that had the issue of making ONLY text scaled up and not spacing and other stuff (google searches looked even more silly using only 6 cm to the left, rows too close overwrote themselves etc.)

That is not possible.
The layout.css.devPixelsPerPx pref affects everything in Firefox, both the user interface and the browsing area.
'Full page zoom' affects all elements on web pages including images and 'zoom text only' affects the text and can cause issues with text overlapping or disappearing similar to setting a minimum font size because the containing element keeps the same dimensions.
You can't just exclude the images from zoom and have the containers expand automatically.

When trying to view a Russian website, the message "Language File Not Found" appears. How can I view the site?

Before updating to 3.6.8, I was able to view the site just fine, but now it can't find the language file, and I have no idea where to get it from.

All the instructions for getting the tab back to the right of the primary tab have not worked, pleas help, how can this be done

After a recent 'update' from Firefox The additional "tab" which used to be at the right side of the primary tab is gone. On the far top left of the page, under the word "File" in the menu bar is a link that opens up a second completely new Firefox page. I do not want this. I want the tab to be in the original position to the right of the primary tab. I have been to 'trouble shooting', tried 'extensions' information and gone to the 'add-ons manager'. Nothing is working. Please help.
I use MS XP.

There is only one solution: create a new Standard user account and set it as your auto login account, if you use that feature.
Using what you describe is mostly a false sense of security. Were someone to hack into the computer they could hack into the standard account, so you would not wish to keep any sensitive data in that account. Other things to consider:
Turn on your Firewall in Security & Privacy preference panel.
Use software to mask your online presence such as ProxyCap 2.03, MacProxy, Proxifier, or Hotspot Shield.

I had to get a new keyboard and now the keys in the upper row are not working appropriately. How can I fix this problem?

My keyboard stopped working so I went to the apple store to replace it with another one. Now I am back home and the keys at the very top are not working correctly (volumn F12 shows the dashboard, F11 takes the screen up and away, F8 pause button shows spaces, etc.). What should I do to correct this problem - I assume I probably need to download some type of softwear but what? I have a Mac OS X Version 10.5.8 desktop - 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor.

All new keyboards need Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and above for full functionality.
Rather short-sighted of Apple perhaps, but that seems to be a trend these days.
I'm afraid the only fix is to upgrade to SL. Personaly, I'd take it back and get a refund and seek an older keyboard or a third-party one elsewhere.

HT2688 My daughter has used my computer to log into iTunes and download music but now it won't let me download recently purchased music from my iPad onto my computer. I want to transfer the recently purchased songs onto my iPod so how can I do this now.

My daughter has used my computer to log into iTunes and download music but now it won't let me download recently purchased music from my iPad onto my computer. I want to transfer the recently purchased songs onto my iPod so how can I do this now? iTunes now says that I have to wait another 55 days! There must be a way to do this since I have paid for them.

In iTunes sign out of your daughters Apple ID and sign in with your own.
