MY IPHONE WAS STOLEN IVE GOT IT BACK FROM THE POLICE BUT WITH A DIFFERENT ID CANT GET INTO PHONE TO CHANGE I D AND PASSWORD
MY I PHONE WAS STOLEN IVE GOT IT BACK FROM THE POLICE BUT IT HAS SOMEONES I D AND PASSWORDHOW DO I RECTIFY THIS
If the thief or someone set up an Apple ID on the iPhone and hence Activation Lock, there's no way you can unlock it. That would require that Apple ID and password and it's not likely the thief is going to provide that information. Call Apple Support and ask if there's anything they can do to help. You'll almost certainly need to provide proof of ownership and possibly a copy of the police report, but it's possible in this situation that they can do something for you, though in most cases of an Activation Lock they can't.
Regards.

Hi, my Iphone was stolen 2 days ago, I have the voxer installed on it, is it possible to find the location of my phone?
What is the "Voxer"?
If you set up the find my iphone feature on the iphone itself and it is on and it has not been restored, then you may be able to locate using icloud.com.
Otherwise, it cannot be tracked. -
I just got it back from the apple store and they reset it (becuase it kept shutting down and not turning back on).
I put in a new password because i needed to start over from factory settings, but now it doesnt let me log in anymore. (I don't know if this is because it doesnt accpet my password, or I forgot my password in less than 5 minutes, or because when i typed in my new password, i typed it in wrong twice)
Command R doesnt work, all i hear is a sound, but nothing happens.What I don't understand is why it is rejecting a password I am creating.
Perhaps the password you are creating is too short, or has characters that are not allowed, or is not secure enough because it is a word in a dictionary.
FileVault may have standards for what it considers an acceptable password. If the password is part of the 128-bit encryption scheme, it might have to be 16 characters, for example. (Don't know if that is true, but it's a possibility.) Check your documentation for password requirements. -

I got a new iphone 4 3 days ago. YAY! Got it all set up, downloaded some apps etc, and it kept crashing.
I took it back into the store and they replaced it. Today however, I tried to download some apps, and it keeps prompting me to log into my apple id. When I do, I enter my password etc... then I get to the part for payment, and using the same credit card I used for the first phone i input the exact info that worked for the first phone. It keeps telling me "SECURITY CODE IS INVALID" but I KNOW I am entering this number correctly.
Are you only allowed to use a credit card once? Has my second phone crashed? What gives?
Thank you for any help... I am new at this and not so good...Launch iTunes. From the menu bar click Store / View My Account
Click: Edit Payment Information
Make sure you have the correct Security Code.
Then click: Done

I've been using Photoshop CS6 and suddenly when I try to open images with this it takes me onto a page saying Photoshop CS6 Extedned and is asking me to license this software. Ive already got Photoshop so why is this happening? I now cant access it?
You should see a prompt to "License this Software". You might see it on the Trial Screen.
Click on that, sign in if asked, then click on the "I have a serial number" option or you maybe able to do that directly.
Once your serial number is entered, your software is licensed and activated. -

So for me to go on Internet i have to open Firefox first. 2. The message Java Plug in has been disable appeared immediatle after the reinstallation. I need help from the community pls.
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
I think that your Mac detects your hard disk, but the problem is that your new hard disk doesn't contain any operating system, so your Mac doesn't find any bootable partition and you see a question mark.
If your Mac came with DVDs, insert the Mac OS X Install DVD and hold the C key while your Mac is starting. Then, just install Mac OS X. If the hard disk isn't prepared to install Mac OS X, you will have to erase it using "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". See > http://pondini.org/OSX/DU1.html -
