Have you locked the iMac with Find my iMac, if so use that 4 digit pin you used then?

My Apple ID asks for answers to security questions which I never input. I have searched how to reset my security questions and have found that the option below where your answers are to be input to reset questions does not exist on my iPhone 5c
You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

itunes is asking for a password for the backup that I did not set. I can NOT set up my new iphone and restore it from an old backup. What can I do?
This message is asking for the password that was added when the backup was first created IF you don't have this passcode you will be unable to restore from this backup.
Good luck Friend. -

I just updated Mavericks because I was unable to get Google Chromecast to work with my MacBook Air. When it rebooted it insisted on my entering my login keychain for every single program on the computer. I have no idea what a login keychain is, and my password doesn't work. I can't get past the opening page and my only options are to enter the login keychain, sleep, restart, or shutdown. What do I do?
Thanks. My problem is that I never had a keychain login password, and even if I did I can't get past the login, so I can't change my keychain password or delete keychains. All I can do are enter the keychain login or reboot, which puts me right back where I started.

For the past two weeks, every time I start up my computer I'm asked for an iCloud login. I've never used iCloud and I'm not likely to. How do I get this login to stop automatically showing up? I'm using an iMac G5 with OS 10.9.4.
One more quick thing first. Hold the SHIFT key this time as you startup and see if that gets you any further (this is called 'Safe Mode' by the way). I'm not too confident that this will work in your case but it's worth a try. If it boots up, go into Disk Utility and repair permissions.
If it doesn't, you're going to have to do an Archive & Install which will install a fresh copy of the OS over the top BUT keep all your users, files and apps in place. -
After updating iOS 8.0, I only see a black screen on my iPad 4 asking for a 4 digits passcode, I've tried severeal times and now every time I try I get this message "Ipad dissable wait 60 min... I do not know what to do???
Howdy mendjes25,
It sounds like you’ve recently updated your iPad and now it’s disabled because the passcode you’re entering isn’t being accepted. I can imagine that would be frustrating. Take a look at the article linked below, it describes the alert you’re seeing and provides the possible resolutions for that issue.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
I hope this helps,

Hello, how are you? On September 13 I bought an iPad and in October bought a game on the app store problem is that when informed the card number dropped normally, but then went on to ask for a new form of payment because one had given any errors, and so not lowered any other game and not upgraded the already downloaded. I do not know what exactly I have to do, because if informed a new payment method continues with the same problem, checked the card bill and really had given an error, because there was no billed the game. I ask you to verify what happened and explain to me what I need to do, because my single card is Visa's and do not intend to return others to use the services of the App Store.
Thank you for understanding.I think you need the app store support. http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact/ Go there and use one of the methods to contact them about your issue and they should be able to help you out.
This forum isn't checked by Apple employees but is for users to help each other out.

I got a light room 5 and once i put in the serial number its asking for an older version serial number. I had downloaded a 30 day trail few months back , but I dont hinki it had a serial number since it was only a trail version. I got it directly from Adobe a few hours aga and when I am trying to call them, I am on hold for the last 30 mts
You probably purchased a upgrade License so you will have to contact Adobe to get a refund and purchase the "Full Version".

Received a email from Apple stating that my Apple ID was used for a purchase not on my device. It had a link to cancel purchase but asked for my email and password which I gave then it wanted my credit card info! I didn't give that,what should I do? Do you think this is just a way to get my credit card information?
It sounds like a phishing email. You can't "cancel" purchases. You've now given them your AppleID and password, so you should immediately change your password to something new and very secure.
Also watch out for suspicicious activity on your account. -
Phone keeps asking for password on an Apple ID I never created. On my sons phone, it keeps asking for his password for a supposed Apple ID I NEVER CREATED! I've tried every combination of passwords I can imagine and every route I can think of. It won't let me delete the account until I can sign in with that password. Somehow, the find my iPhone has created a loop that won't let me do anything after loading ios7. It won't even let me delete all contents or settings without the password! When I ask for it to reset my password, no email comes.... I don't know what to do! Please help
Welcome to the Apple Community.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out of the account from your iOS device first, then sign back using your updated details. (Settings > store, scroll down and tap your ID) -
why am I getting a message suddenly that I am exceeding the gift card limit on my iTunes id for buying gift cards? I have never had a problem before and have a good credit card on file. I bought a $50 card for my son and then went to buy another one and it was refused and has continued to be for a week telling me a I am exceeding the gift card limit for my account? Insights here?
Interesting.
Didn't know Apple accepted PayPal as a payment option in some Stores. Cause they sure don't over here. -
My Imac (Intel) is asking for a password rather than going to my desktop
My Imac(intel) usually goes straight to my desktop when it is switched on. Normally only asking for a password if it sat idle for some time. Today it has gone straight to a password box, which when I enter my password it doesn't accept it. When it is not accepting the password it goes to a black screen (prior to which it has a very very dark green hue to the screen for a second).
I have tried inserting the Snowleopard disc, both with and without holding down the command key. I have also tried holding down the command, option and P & R keys. These give the chimes every few seconds. I have done this allowing it to chime up to 10 times, but once I release the keys it still goes back to the password box.
Is there an over-riding password I can enter? Or something else I can do to get past this?Thanks so much for your speedy response Tafftech You are brilliant - and I did it all with no CD!
I now want to quickly pick your brains - why did this happen? Had I done something wrong? Should I update from Snowleopard?
Cheers again -
I recently purchased the 2TB time capsule. expecting it to work like all of my other apple products. No chance. I have plugged into router and switched on. amber light just flashes away....
Opening Airport utility and it does see the time capsule, again with a flashing amber light next to it and a number 2 to the right, in red. when i click on it it asks for a password!!! no idea what password it is asking for, tried the network key, tried admin password, tried trusted etc.....
What is going wrong as online help and instructions do not provide any guidance.
thxI recommend you do a fully isolated setup. Especially if you are using wireless.
Plug the TC into the computer by ethernet. Make sure it is LAN port marked <->.
Open the utility. It should not need a password now to access.. if it does, do a full factory reset.
This is done by holding in reset.. then power on the TC and wait for about 10 sec.. never releasing the reset.. front LED flashes rapidly.. then release the reset.. and wait for the TC to reboot.
In the airport utility select bridge mode under networking.
Go to the wireless page and setup wireless as you prefer.
Update the TC.. disconnect from the computer and plug it back by ethernet into the router.
