My iPad 2 doesn't recognize my Apple ID

I'm not really sure what my issue is.  When I log into itunes with my desktop computer I use My Apple ID but when I log into my iPad 2 it shows me as having a differnt Apple ID.  How do I update my apple ID on my iPad 2 as it is not accurate?

To log into a different account for the stores on your iPad, tap on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and tap on 'sign out' on the popup, and you can then log in with a different account.
If any apps (or other content) were downloaded by the account that is currently logged in then they will remain tied to that account, so only that account can download updates to those apps (and potentially redownload them).

    IPad suddenly doesn't recognize wifi

    Try to reboot your ipad? Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot and try again
    You can also try to power cycle your router. Unplug the power to the router, count to ten, plug it back in and let it reboot and try again.

  • ICloud doesn't recognize my Apple id password

    I just changed my Apple id password because someone else was listed under my email. After doing that, my icloud accound doesn't recognize my apple id password.  FYI, when I went in to my account to change the password, I saw all the persons info, address, telephone etc. who was using my email account. How did that happen? All of my info was not there. So I took his out and replaced with my info. But then I couldn't get itunes or icloud to recognize my new password.

    I had a very similar experience.  I made a purchase last month.  Everything was fine.  Then I try to login two days ago and I can't.  Nothing works.  Can't reset my password, and when I try I never get an email with the new one.
    I email apple support and they tell me that my email address (and apple ID) has been changed to some weird address.  I  reply and tell them that I never did this and never got an email saying it had been changed.  They had me try to log in with the new email address (which I couldn't).  Eventually they reset my password (still with the new weird email address) and I could log in.  I then quickly changed the password and apple ID back to my email address.  However, the billing info was weird.  My street and city were correct, yet the State/ZIP and phone were all from New Mexico.  It doesn't look like any purchases were made.
    I am starting to think that there were no accounts hijacked here, otherwise we would have received an email when the ID was changed (as I did when I changed mine back).  I think that something got corrupted in Apple's database.

  • My IPad 2 doesn't recognize the camera connection kit

    My ipad2 does nit recognize my camera connection kit. Actually the kit is recognized but when I put the chip or plug in the USB camera cable nothing happens. I'm using a Sony Dsc-Tx10 camera. It worked before but now it doesn't. Please help. I'm trying to upload my pictures to my iPad.
    Thank you,
    Josie

    Check it to make sure the card and tray are free of dirt or dust. (You can blow into the empty slot to clean out any dust.)
    Put the SIM card back in the tray, and slide the tray back into the slot.


  • I can't download itunes movies to my iPad; it doesn't recognize the wifi.

    I am trying to download a movie to my iPad.  I receive an error message each time telling me I must be connected to Wifi; however, I am connected.  My daughter is trying on our Apple TV and computer and receives the same error message.  We just performed the 5.1 update.  Could this be the problem?  Some internal conflict with the software?

    Try it again now.  This was a system error on Apple's end....the message had nothing to do with what was wrong (and there was nothing wrong with your setup or system).
    This started working again at about 8pm CST for me.
    This affected rentals and purchases (for me it was on iTunes through my computer hard wired to a network).
    If you look at the error message you'll notice that its a mix of upper case and lower case words and the message itself actually doesn't make much sense - my guess is that it was a meaningless error message created by developers during testing before....just a guess.

  • ICloud doesn't recognize my apple ID

    I'm trying to set up icloud on my iMac. 10.7.2 installed, go to system preferences, click iCloud, enter my username and password, a message pops down saying 'You can't sign in at this time' 'Try signing in again' and at the bottom it says in red 'Unrecognized Apple ID or password'. Thing is both of these are correct, I can log in through iTunes and manage my ac, log in through my iPad etc no problem. I have tried running Disk Utility repair preferences and restarting but still the same. iCloud won't recognized my account ... ?

    I had the same promblem using my ipad2, I thought i was going crazy, then I noticed once when I put my user name in and checked it was right, one time it dropped the last letter as went to hit submit (i actually saw it erased!) so i went back put the deleted "m" back into "com", hit enter, put in my password multiple times, tripple checked, no joy. I guessed it could be dropping the last letter also of my P/W.
    So I hit remote on my iphone4s did the same UN/PW and it worked first time! I had the same promblem with accessing YouTube - I know I was putting the right UN/PW i did it about 10 times in but it wouldn't let me in, then miraculously one time it did... could be a letter dropping bug..
    I think remote on the ipad is just buggy, as I couldn't use it with ATV when I first upgraded both the remote App and ATV, yet every other app that streamed music, pictures or video including iTunes (upgraded) on my PC had no problem working or connecting with apple TV. So in the end I resorted to a ATV reset and then it worked, as I knew it wasn't a network problem. I only found this logging in error after.

  • (Windows 8.1) My iTunes takes a while to open, freezes and doesn't recognize any apple device plugged into it.  I've uninstalled iTunes and other software components in the order I was told but still end up with the same result.Why is that?

    Why is iTunes for Windows 8 (8.1) taking so long to boot up, not recognizing an apple device and freezing after a proper uninstall and reinstall?

    Hmm....I just had another thought.  All the machines are running Win7 SP1, BUT the 2 that can sync with MSE installed are 32bit versions, however the one that can't is 64bit.  Not sure if that makes any difference though.  All are clean installs with Win7SP1 media, not SP1 installed later.

  • Ipad Garageband doesn't recognize Apogee jam guitar input

    I have recently bought an Apogee jam guitar input device. Device works with other software like Ampkit without problem. But garageband doesnt recognize the device as an input. When I hook in the device the monitor icon grays out and theres no input sound. The interesting thing, I can see green light on monitor icon blinking with every sound coming from guitar and audio recording device meter moves with it also. But when I press record it gives this error: "this device does not have an built-in audio input. You can not record audio ...". Any ideas? Mono is not enabled from settings so its not the cause of tgis issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I have upgraded from iOS 4.3.5 to 5.0 and did a sync from itunes on my laptop. It did the trick. Now garaband is working with Apogee Jam without any problem.

  • IPad Air doesn't recognize podcasts I have already downloaded. When connected to my Mac, Podcast list is empty. I have tried transferring all my purchases to my Mac, but only apps

    I have been transferring purchases, and recently, I decided to check if all of my purchases were really transferred. Unfortunately, some of my podcasts were skipped. The podcasts remain undetected when I click on the Podcast list under my iPad's name on iTunes. I have tried to make a new user account on my Mac then transferred the purchases. All my apps, books and songs were transferred, but those podcasts still did not transfer. I would like to know a way to reset my Podcasts app so that it would transfer those remaining podcasts. Some of my podcasts are no longer available on iTunes, and so it's impossible to download them again. Thanks in advance.

    I have already solved the problem by using Macroplant's iExplorer. Thanks, Macroplant!

  • When i synced with my ipad all my photos in iphoto on my macbook disappeared.  When I try to sync again, iphoto doesn't recognize the 1500 photos that are still on my ipad.  How do I get them back onto my macbook?

    When I synced my iPad2 with my MacBook Pro, all my photos in iPhoto disappeared on my MacBook but remained on the iPad.  I want to get the back onto my MacBook, but when I connect the iPad, it doesn't recognize that the photos are there.

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
