Hello miamat2017
You should see an option to skip that step and then sign out of it when looking in Settings. Check out the article below for more information.

I am the owner of my iPhone 4 and it had not been updating and allowing me to download apps. So I decided to do factory setting, before doing so I had backed up my phone on my computer then I had erased everything from my iphone. But now I want to start everything from the beginning, and on my setting my Apple ID is present however when I put my password in it doesn't let me log in. The message that I receive says that I would have to remove my Apple ID as it will not let me log in with that I'd even though I am the original owner, I have tried everything on find my iPhone as well, even there my Apple ID not showing on the devise.
If anyone has had a similar experience could you please advise me on what to do,
Thanks

You must have the credentials that were used to turn on Find my iPhone on the device. Without them, you can not get past the activation lock.

My original apple id is not an email address . I bought iCloud memory via that same account no problem. When setting up iCloud on iPad you cannot have a primary iCloud account unless it has an email address . Made new account but can you change originalI'

Made new account as per instruction ie [email protected] works fine
BUT as I want to utilise the money spent on the additional memory it would be great to use the initial account set up as my primary HOWEVER as far as I have tried the initial apple ID CANNOT be changed. Bit confused actually any usefull guidance will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hello farahani hairon nizar,
If your Apple ID was changed from your old account, you may have to change it back to your old account to be able to sign out and then change it back after that is done. Take a look at the article below for more information.

Hello mail4bru,
I read your post, and it sounds as though you'd like to learn more about iTunes syncing. I have linked to an article that will instruct you on that:

How can I remove music from my iPhone that's not on a playlist, or checked off in the Sync window in any of the possible categories (Playlist, genre, artist, etc)? HELP! It's taking up SO much space on my phone

If it's slow on startup it would be extensions loading or LaunchDaemons starting up.
You should have a look in:
/Library/LaunchDaemons
/Library/Extensions
You can count out anything in your home folder and it shouldn't put anything in /System as that's reserved for Apple.

Can I remotely remove Apps from my iphone when not connected to iTunes. I have my apple ID and password. but my iphone is not in same wifi range

Sorry, not sure what you mean by remotely?
You can remove apps from your phone without being connected to anything if you have the phone in hand. Were you speaking about something else?
If not, then you just press on an app on the Home screen and hold it down until they all begin to wiggle. Apps that you can remove (non-Apple apps) have a little "x" in the top left-hand corner. Tap on that, and the app will be removed.

I changed my apple id, but the cloud is not recognizing the new id. It keeps asking for the password for my old apple id, but when I enter it, it tells me it's incorrect.

I wanted to use a different e-mail account for my apple id. I had no trouble changing it, but now when I try to use apps on my phone, they don't work (and they don't sync with the corresponding apps on my other apple devices). It keeps asking me for the password for my old ID. I have tried entering both (old and new, IDs and passwords) to no avail. I went to the store where I bought the phone (ATT) and they tell me that this is a common problem. Can I fix this myself or do I have to go to a store, which is a hassle?

Did you change the name of the AppleID like described here?
Change your Apple ID

Then check this list of things to do, before you start using it:
Apple ID: What to do after you change your Apple ID

My Apple ID was changed. Yet when I try to update apps I am asked to enter the password for the old IG which will not work and no matter what I do. When I attempt to update apps it still askes for the wrong ID data.

My Apple ID was changed. It works fine on my IPad mini, my MAc and in Itunes Store, Yet when I try to update apps on my IPAD 1 I am asked to enter a password for the old ID user name which appears in the pop up window. When It still askes for the wrong ID data. I have uodated it in settings, and I have logged ontht the account to verify that it still works properly and it does. I reboot the IPAD and then attempt to update apps again but it still asked for the Old ID password and still shows the old ID username. The dame thing refuses to recognize my new Apple ID data. This is making my older IPAD unuseable.

You cannot change your Apple ID. You can get a new one if you want, but all of your Apps and media are linked to yoru old Apple ID. And no, Apple won't transfer your old ID purchases to yoru new ID.

I am trying to update my apps on my iPhone. I recently change my apple ID to a new email address. When I go to update the pop us is asking for the password for my old email address.

I recently changed my apple ID to my new email address. On my iPhone 4 I am trying to update apps and it asks me for my apple ID password for my old email address. How do I change to my new email address?

Did you change the Apple ID primary email to another email address or did you create a whole new Apple ID?
Go to settings>itunes & app store and if it shows your old apple id at the top then tap on it then sign out and then sign in with your new apple id email.

Ipad Air update to IOS 8.02( stuck in apple logo; turns blue every few minutes and starts over; itunes does not recognize it)

Hi everybody,
i updated my IPAD bought in october 2013 to IOS 8.02.
Now the IPAD only goes to the apple logo, every few minutes it blinks blue and starts over. I tried doing the home plus switch thing and it doesnt work.
Itunes does not recognize the device either.
Do you have any solution to this issue?

My iphone is asking me to type a credit card number in but i dont have one what should i do

my iphone is asking me to type a credit card number in but i dont have one what should i do

If this is in the iTunes/App store and there is no option for none then it may be due to an unpaid balance on your iPhone
IF you don't have a CC then buy an iTunes gift card,
IF you are trying to set up an iTunes account; do it on a cmputer and you should have the option for "None"

My IPhone is asking me to type in my password for my old Apple ID that does not exist anymore. I cant set up ICloud without typing in a password to a Apple ID that does not exist, so do I have to remove everything from my IPhone and start over?
