My iPad does not recognize my Apple ID. I have completed a reset several times (as requested).
The re-set is shown as successful but then doesn't work..I'm locked out of everything!!!

To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  When you do this you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted.  If this should happen, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • I followed everything I need to do to enable my Apple ID account multiple times. Yet I still am not able to purchase anything. Not even with apple credits I have already stored in my account. Is there something I'm missing or doing wrong.

    I followed everything I need to do to enable my Apple ID account multiple times. Yet I still am not able to purchase anything. Not even with apple credits I have already stored in my account. Is there something I'm missing or doing wrong?

    What happens when you try to buy something ? If you are still getting the disabled message then since resetting your password have you logged out of your account on your device (by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store) or computer's iTunes (Store > Sign Out menu option) and then logged back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it ?
    If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • Firefox keeps opening tabs on it's own whether I am on-line or not. I have reset several times and there are no pipe characters in the home page address.

    Firefox keeps opening tabs whether I am on-line or not. These are often games pages, but not always. I have reset several times and there are no pipe characters in the home page address. This is not the first time this has happened. The first time was a couple of months ago and a reset cured the problem, but this time it does not. How can I stop this occurring?

    '''''If this can happen with Firefox completely closed:'''''
    Some malware simply launches pages in your default browser from outside Firefox. Definitely scan for malware using some of the tools listed in our support article: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]].
    There might be an additional step:
    Last year, many users reported advertising tabs opening randomly, sometimes even when Firefox was closed. It turned out that a program had created scheduled tasks to open those pages at certain times of day.
    You can check the Windows Task Scheduler:
    * Windows XP: Start button > [All] Programs > Accessories> System Tools > Scheduled Tasks
    * Windows Vista/7: Start button > Control Panel > System and Security > Administrative Tools > Task Scheduler
    * Windows 8: ?? You might try the charms bar search box if you don't find it in the control panel.

  • On Apple TV my photo stream only shows six pictures - how do I get all photos to use as a screen saver. I have reset several times but it still only finds six pictures!!!!

    On Apple TV my photo stream only shows six pictures - how do I get all photos to use as a screen saver. I have reset several times but it still only finds six pictures!!!!

    I recently got apple tv but the photo stream only seems to show up those photos which I took in September and no others (ie. 20 out of around 100).  Any ideas why the earlier photos on my photo stream in ipad don't show up on apple tv?

  • When I attempt to reset my password it does not set my password. I have attempted several times.

    How do I reset my password when the web site does not appear to accept the new password that I have entered? I have repeated the reset a couple of times, but the system does not advance to the next window after I enter my password both times and then select Continue. There is no action on the window after I click Continue. What is next.

    Hi Russell,
    I just logged into my account to verify Login is working, I then logged out, went through the password change process, and successfully logged in with my new password.
    Have you been able to log into the site previously? If so, how long ago? Also, how long ago was the account created?
    If I have helped in any way, just click the Kudos star on the left. Also, if your issue has been resolved, don't forget to select Accept as Solution

    Was your phone jailbroken or "unlocked" by someone other than the carrier it was originally locked to?

    That suggests that another application has stashed old QuickTime componentry in your system files.
    So just in case we'll go looking for older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
    First we'll need to change some view settings.
    In your Start menu, open Computer.
    In your Organise menu, select Folder Options.
    In the View tab, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and Hide extensions for known file types is unchecked.
    Click OK.
    Now in Computer, open your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you have your operating system installed on).
    Open the "Windows" folder.
    If you have a 32-bit version of Windows, open the "System32" folder.
    If you have a 64-bit version of Windows, open the "SysWOW64" folder.
    What files and folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the title? (In a standard installation of Quicktime you should be seeing precisely two files... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

  • Apple TV does not recognize my Apple account username (email) and password, but ITunes, my iPad and iPhone does.  I have rest my password three times, same results. Also, ATV says my computer is not authorized, but I-Tunes says it is.

    ATV says my computer is not authorized, but i-Tunes says it is.
    I have i-Tunes open on my computer and have entered i-Tunes store, ATV says it can't access the store.  Both on the same network!
    I am so frustrated with this system!  All these problems with Apple TV are not the end but the beginning.
    In i-Tunes, songs are lost when they have not been moved. I lose whole albums I have ripped from CDs to iTunes
    An audiobook book in two files are in the library but only one file is recognized by iTunes when I try to play it or transfer it to my iPhone

    I Am having the same issue. Ie on the password issue.
    I Am using a Macpro though.
    i Have had no issues with the setup until recently.
    However I think the hard drive is starting to fail as it keeps on losing the wireless connection and gas been stuttering a lot on playback.
