My MacPro went to sleep in another language and now I can't Login
I DESPERATELY NEED SOME HELP. I had been working in a language different from my default keyboard when my computer went to sleep. When I tried to resume by typing my password, it would not accept my usual keystrokes. I assume that my computer is still in the other language. I tried restarting, but that didn't help. I don't recall typing my password in the different language so as to have changed the password to the other language characters. I thought I set-up a keyboard shortcut for changing languages. I think it is "command + space" and deleted the shortcut for "Spotlight." Yet, when I try to change keyboard languages at login, there is no change. My current situation is that I am locked-out of my computer because it rejects my password. PLEASE HELP!
What is the other keyboard you were using? If you provide the characters of your password, perhaps there is a way to make them with this other keyboard.
When you have access again, go to system preferences/users & groups/login options and check the box for Show Input Menu on Login Page.

my phone is disabled because the language got changed and I kept trying to unlock it. It tells me to connect to itunes but then itunes tells me that I have to insert the password on my iphone before proceeding. I am unable to type in the password. Help!!
If you forgot your passcode, you have to use recovery mode to restore

HT3275 I've moved my time Capsule to another network and now i can not access it
This may be something simple but im having one of those days! I moved in with my gf and moved my time Capsule to her house. I now can't find it! I can't seem to access it to change the wifi settings. Do I need a USB cable to do this?
A reset will in no way, shape or form, do anything to the content on the hard disk.. it will reset the router settings.. to erase the content of the hard disk you need to use erase from the Airport utility.. that is the one and only way to erase. If you change name of the TC then you will need to point the computer to the correct name. The hard disk content will still be sitting there waiting for you.
I always now advise people to use SMB type names.. it simply works better. short, no spaces, pure alphanumeric.. especially in mixed network. Use it for TC itself plus wireless plus hard disk. -

I had all of my video files that I work on in iMovie saved to an external hard drive exclusively to save space on my Macbook. The other day I had just finalized a project and went to work on another one and when I opened the project I could see what should have been there, but scrolling over the entire clip I would only see black and that the file was missing. I did not drag anything on the hard drive to the trash or move anything. How can I get those files? These are videos of my kids and I am devastated and willing to try anything!
Control click does not work - no option to find files. I have no idea what to do. When I look at the usage of the external drive the space is being used, but I cannot find the files. I am going to try MacKeeper's Undelete and see if I can make any progress with it.

I downloaded a movie from iTunes on my iPhone 4S, went out of the wifi zone and now my movie is no where to be found. I can't find it on my iPhone, Mac or iPad. Where is it?
Sounds like the movie didn't finish downloading before the Wi-Fi signal dropping ...
Try re downloading. You won't be charged again.

I downloaded the ios5 and during the installation something went really wrong and now I can't open it, restore it or reset it by hand. Any ideas?
I am having an issue as well, I think it is ongoing for everyone who is trying to update.

I reset and erased my iphone 4 and now I can`t reinstall it! After I choose a language, region. and wifi, it says Please, try again later or contact customer care. I tried to do with iTunes, and iTunes even sees this iphone, but it`s like blank, there is nothing I can do in iTunes. It uploaded last software for this iPhone 4, but when it tries to do the reserve copy of iphone first, it shows a mistake. And ask to disconnect and connect the device again, which, obviously, doesn`t help.
This usually happens if the phone has been Hacked / Jailbroken / Modified...
Is this the case...?
If so...
Then... Sorry... But...

how do you transfer Apple IDs from one ipad to another iPad? I got the new ipad and gave my ipad 2 to my wife who had the first version and now I can't get my Apple ID off so she can use her Apple ID.
You don't transfer Apple ID's from one device to another one. You sign out in the settings, )the App Store and iTunes if necessary) and then sign in with the other ID.
Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Apple ID>Sign out. Them sign in with the other ID. You can sign out of the app store and iTunes as well by going to the featured Atab in the App Store and the music tab in iTunes, swipe to the bottom and access the Apple ID in there.
You should have erased the iOad before you gave it to her in Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings. That way she could set up the iPad as new with her own Apple ID.
Be aware of the fact that if you use each others ID's in order to download past purchased content to your own iPads, you will lock yourself out of your own ID as you will have associated your iPad with the other person's Apple ID.
In other words, if you sign into your wife's ID on your iPad so that you can download an app or an album so that you don't have to pay for it again, you will lock yourself out of your Apple ID for 90 days. -
My usual Apple ID/iCloud account has been locked out. I tried the email link - didn't receive an email. So I created a new Apple ID with another email but now I can't access my other Apple ID Mail, etc.. How do I get the Apple ID I want to use working again? Help.
Hi JkeeneSoldano,
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
To regain access to your Apple ID, try to reset your password using one of these methods:
Answer your security questions. Use these steps if you know the answers to your security questions.
Use email authentication. We'll send you an email that you can use to change your password.
Use two-step verification. If you set up two-step verification, you can use it to change your password. You just need your recovery key and a trusted device.
From:
If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
If you need to use the email verification method but don't receive the reset email, see this link for more help:
If you didn't receive your verification or reset email - Apple Support

Had 3G, moved to 3GS. Backed up 3G and restored 3GS from backup with no problem on a Dell computer. But now when I want to add songs, I get itunes message of death that the new iphone is synced to another computer and now wants to erase everything. How can I add music without erasing everything on my new iphone?
Yes, I was aware of this but the phrase "Any items imported from audio CDs or acquired from other sources will not copy from your device to the iTunes library." is what worries me. Will this eliminate my Notes, Calendar Events, etc or will it apply mostly just to the music?

I dropped my phone into the bath last night and it was working perfectly fine the hole day, I went to put it on charge and now it won't charge or even turn on what do I do
You can try drying it out internally by wrapping the unit in a paper towel and putting it in a bag with a dessicant safe for electronics such as silica gel pellets, or failing that in a bag of dry, uncooked rice, for a few days. It's very probable that it's been permanently damaged, but it's possible that if you dry it out, it may then work. If after a few days in the bag it still has problems, then you'll need to pay to get it exchanged (by Apple) or repaired (by a third-party repair service) or buy a new iPhone.
Good luck. -
My ipod has been accessed from another ipod and now it won't let me download anything what do i do
my ipod account has been accessed from another ipod and now it won't let me download anything...What Do I do?
Not sure what you are talking about.
Your ITUNES account can be accessed from any device or computer that has itunes, as long as you have your username and password. Using your itunes account from another device does not affect your ability to use the account from your device.
What is the issue?
You tried to do what?
And what was the result?
Error message?

After updating my iphone5, my phone went back to factory setting and now I can't sign in with my apple id because it does not recognise it... Help?!
Yes, my telco is an approved carrier. If my phone was brand new, I think so, they opened it in front of me.. I really couldn't remember it was 1.4 years ago. It did seem new.
Well it says, "_____" cannot be used to unlock this iphone. I've tried both my apple ids but it didn't work.
