My iPhoto needs updating but it wont accept my apple id and because of this i cant send photos from my ipad to my mac... what to do?

how can i sort the issue with my apple ID. I bought my imac through the internet, apple shop.
I only have one apple ID and it wont accept it to update my iphoto and imovie. I am really struggling now that i want to back my photos using icloud.

If it does not accept the ID/password, then that means the apps were purchased using another iTunes account. Apps purchased at the App Store are forever tied to the ID that was used when buying them.
BTW iCloud is not a storage service like Dropbox, it's mainly for syncing data and for iOS device backups. It will include photos in the camera roll during an iOS backup to iCloud, but that is not storage in the usual sense.

My account needs updating but will not accept my card security code

My account needs updating but will not accept my card security code why?

As of today, I'm having the same problem. My iTunes account has been up and active for a long time using the same card, then suddenly the security code isn't valid. I've double checked all the info and it is correct, but iTunes refuses to accept it… I also tried the article linked above, but it is no help at all. There is no option to select "None" as a payment choice.
Just to be very clear: I've been using my iTunes account to make purchases with this exact card since 2009, my bank info hasn't changed since 2008, my card is not expired, and the security code is correct.
If anyone comes up with a solution, I'd appreciate hearing about it. I can't even get the free updates to my apps since my payment info is busted. Grrrr.

I am trying to copy photos from an iPad to a Mac Air, but iPhoto does not recognize them. Please forgive the ignorance, but we have just started moving to apple products and I know nothing about them. Do you have to use PhotoStream to do this?

How did the photos that you want to copy off get on the iPad ? To copy photos to your computer that were taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then see this page - on a Mac you should be able to use iPhoto, Aperture or Image Capture
To copy photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app on your iPad such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

HT4436 I have a laptop Mac and an IPad, and would like to transfer pictures, videos, etc from the ipad to the Mac but not from the Mac to the IPad, how can I set up the iCloud in both devises to do so?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Your best method would be to connect via USB and transfer that way, since videos are not transferred using photostream.
However you can stop photos on your mac being added to photostream in the iPhoto preferences > photostream by unchecking the automatic upload box.

I want to add that I deleted all the old back-ups and created a new back-up without any issues except sync problem.

In recent weeks many websites show "blocked plug-in". Clicking onto it reveals a notice that my Adobe Flash Player needs updating but I'm not able to do it because Step 3 of the update has "blocked plug-in" in it.

In recent weeks many websites on my OS X (10.6.8) have been showing a white patch with "blocked plug-in" on it preventing access to all of the site. When I
click onto it a message appears stating that my Adobe Flash Player needs updating and when I have downloaded the upgrade & moved to Step 3 I get
a "blocked plug in" on it as well. How do I resolve this issue?
Archeee

When you have installed the latest version of Flash, relaunch Safari and test.
If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then in System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser.
You can also try these illustrated instructions from C F McBlob to perform a full "clean install", which will resolve the "Blocked Plug-in" message when trying to update via the GUI updater from Adobe.
Use the FULL installer for 12.0.0.44: Flash Player 12 (Mac OS X)
And the instructons are here: Snow Leopard Clean Install.pdf

How do I send photos from my iPad mini by email.i have been through the process but it does not send

I Am trying to send my photos from my photo app. I have an iPad mini. I have done all that is required
but the email was not received/sent. What can I do?

As an experiment and an alternative troubleshooting step, try sending the photo directly from the mail app and not from the photos app.
Start typing and email and then hold down anywhere in the body of the email until a black options bar pops up Select Insert Photo or Video from that options bar. A window will pop up with your photos in it. Choose any photo. Then try to send the email.
If that works, the issue could be in the photos app. Try force closing the photos app, reset the iPad like Carolyn described and the try again from the Photos App.
In order to close apps in iOS 7, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

HT3702 for some reason suddenly itunes will not accept my visa debit cards security code and i have no idea why... all the information is correct but it wont accept the security code.. Please help i cant purchase or update any app or anything

I don't know why but itunes just suddenly wouldn't accept the security code???

Is the address on your iTunes account exactly the same (format and spacing etc) as on your credit card bill : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646 ? If it is then you could try what it says at the bottom of that page :
If the issue persists, contact your credit card company and verify that they and any company they use to process credit card authorisations have the correct information on file.
And/or try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

Trying to dl icloud but it wont accept my apple id...help!

i get an error saying.... an AppleID that is an email address is required to use icloud. However my Apple ID works for all my stuff, why is it not working here?

How can I back up my photos from my iPad to my mac without using iPhoto?

Hi guys!
My iPad screen broke down. The sound still works but the screen doesn't. I was wondering if anyone knows the approximate cost of replacing it? It's not cracked or anything.
Also I want to back up my photos but whenever I try backing them up with iPhoto, iPhoto says there's an error. Is there any other way to back it up? I've tried backing them up from itunes to my computer but I'm not sure where it went.. When I looked through the Mobile Application folder, all I see is my apps.
If anyone knows the answers to my questions, please let me know asap! Thanks guys!

HT4061 My iphone screen if frozen and grey after I tried to import photos from my phone to my mac in iPhoto.

My iphone screen has been frozen for about 30 minutes on a grey sceen with a thin white line throught it. I tried to import photos from my phone to my mac. It was working for a while, then it quit and my computer said thre was a error. I looked at my phone and it was frozen. I can't turn it off and my screen does not dim, its just stuck on the grey. I also can'tfind the serial number either. I have imported photos in the past and it has worked. I just don't know what to do or how to fix it .

Hi ginger1616,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your iPhone is unresponsive, try resetting it using this method:
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
You can find the full article with these steps here:

My ipad 2 won't update apps. It shows that 2 apps need updating, but not which ones.

My iPad 2 won't update apps. It shows that 2 apps need updating, but doesn't show which 2.

Many people are having this problem for the last couple of days. This is a problem that Apple has to fix. If you look around the forum, you will see many, many discusssions about this and they have been going on for a few days.
According to Fly150 in another discussion, this is a workaround - for the time being.
If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
1. Go to App Store
2. Select Purchased
3. Select All
4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
5. Select update on the Apps
This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store.

I am unable to send photos from iphoto via email as an attachment to be downloaded onto another computer. i thought e-mail would automatically pick up these photos if mailed out so they could be downloaded.

At one time I was able to send photos from i photo library and I assumed the receiver could open these and download them into their apple computer (family).
I have tried to send photos from library or folder as attachment but I am also unable to do this. How do I send pictures as e-mail attachments which can be opened up and downloaded to another computer?

I've managed to sort out my own problem!! Shall write it down in case there are others out there who have a similar problem. With iPhoto open, click on iPhoto on the top menu bar. Click on preferences. Then click on account. This let me change the details such as the user name and password. Luckily I played around with a couple of my usual passwords, and found one that worked. Have now written it down!!!!

I try to open iphoto and it comes up with You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto. I have downloaded photo manager and it's telling me to update but it wont update...

iPhoto is Apple's included program to manage your photo's and pictures.
It receives updates over time with Software updates and new machine or iLife purchases.
When iPhoto gets updated or a newer version is used, it may alter iPhoto support files, but newer iPhoto versions usually always compatible with older files which it then updates.
If you used a newer iPhoto on your iPhoto support files, then they got altered to the newer format, older iPhoto versions can't read the older format.
Somewhere along the line you somehow got a older version of iPhoto on your computer, you need to fine the newer version of iPhoto (not this photo manager, sounds like another program)
Or somewhere along the line you used a newer iPhoto version (like on another Mac) and it altered the iPhoto support files on your older version of iPhoto.
So the key here is to find the newest version of iPhoto and use that to access your iPhoto support files.
If you didn't access your iPhoto support files from another Mac, then you should have the newer iPhoto version on your computer.
Once you find it, and get it in the Dock, you should remove the older iPhoto version from your computer to prevent this from happening again.
Lastly, if the newer version of iPhoto is somehow gone off your computer, you should be able to get a copy off the latest OS X install disk or iLife using a free program called Pacifist.

Then you need to check for updates for iPhoto in the program itself, the current version is 9.1.2
