Hi 87rach,
Is the old email address a different Apple ID, did you change your Apple ID from that old address to the one you are using now?

No matter what wi-fi I'm connected to or browser I'm using, webpages take forever to load or they never load at all. Other computers do not have any problems. How can i fix this?

I've tried safari, chrome, firefox...I've cleared the cache as well. This has been going on for several months and used to be tolerable as it was not every website. Now it has become every website and is impossible to deal with. My roommates computer and my cell phone connect fine. I'm fully connected to the router yet websites don't load. I'm using 10.7.5. Thank you!!

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Bought a new iphone and i cant activate it unless the previous owner deletes the account from their icloud but i lost contact with the previous owner how can i fix this?

Take it back where you got and and get your money back.
As has been pointed out, if there was a "previous owner", the phone is not "new". Thephone you purchased is most likely stolen. If whoever you bought it from won't give you your money back, turn it over to the police.

iOS 8.1, mail fumction, date at bottom of email accounts the date hasn't changed since 9/26/14. How can I fixed this?

Thanks for the reply Brenden. However the problem is:
     At the very bottom of the "Mailboxes" screen (where I've got 6 email addresses that do work) there is on the far right (bottom right corner) an icon to compose a new message.
     In the center of that space is a generated message that says: 1) "downloading x of y" and 2) when finished downloading it says "Updated on 9/26/14." today is 11/6/14!
     My problem is that that date hasn't changed since I upgraded to iOS 8.1. The emails are current, but that date isn't!
Can you help?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Have you updated to the latest version of the Remote App.

The audio on my iPhone 4s cut out randomly; I have to unplug and replug headphones to get it back. How can I fix this?

For the last year I have been unable to use my iPhone speakers because of some bug. I can play music and audio through headphones, but that's it. And just today even the headphones became spotty. I'll play a song (through iTunes) for a while, then the audio will just cut out. I can get it back by unplugging and replugging the headphones (sometimes multiple times) but that fix doesn't last long; usually within a few minutes (if not much sooner) the music cuts out again.
I really don't want to buy a new one because this one otherwise works fine. How can I fix this?

My email does not have the correct email when i send to someone. It has my mothers. How can i fix this?

When I send an email to someone or reply to them it sends it under my mother's name. How can i fix this?

It may be that you have more than one outgoing mail account, and you're sending from the wrong one. From the Mail menu bar, select
          Mail ▹ Preferences...
The Mail preference dialog opens. Select the Composing tab from the row of icons at the top. From the menu labeled
          Send new messages from:
choose
          Account of selected mailbox
Note that this setting may have no effect if you start a new message while a VIP or smart mailbox is selected in the mailbox list. Those are saved searches, not actual mailboxes.
If the problem remains, select the Accounts tab in the preference dialog, then select the affected account in the list on the left.
In the Account Information pane, select the correct server in the menu labeled
          Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)
If there's only one server in the menu, select
          Edit SMTP Server List...
and add a new server with the correct settings. If you're not sure how to do that, try the Mail Settings Lookup.
Another possibility is that the wrong card in your address book is selected as yours. Select your card in the Contacts application. Then select
          Card ▹ Make This My Card
from the menu bar.

I connected an old iPod from a different computer to my iTunes account and now my iTunes account will not let me download anything. My iPod touch will not take my password. How can I fix this?

I connected an older iPod to my new iTunes account to download my new library to it. Now my new account is not recognizing my password and I can not download anything to my library and iPod touch, can you tell me how to fix this?

Is your device recognized by your computer? If yes, copy the pictures and videos as shown in this article:
Copying personal photos and videos from iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your computer
If it is not recognized, try this first: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
Disable autosync in iTunes, right click on it in the device list and choose "transfer purchases" to copy apps and other media bought in iTunes to your new library.
Do the same again and choose "backup", to create a manual backup without syncing.
Since your device will be erased due to the new iTunes library during the first sync, you can use this backup afterwards to restore your settings and data.
Set up at least one contact and event on your computer before you start, to be able to merge calendars and contacts.

HELP!! I am trying to download past purchases bc I lost all my other music on my old computer. iTunes will not let bc my computer is not authorized??? HOW can I fix this- I want the music! thank you

Help- I am trying to download all the past purchases I have made. (my old computer crashed-lost everything) BUT i am getting a message stating my computre is not authorized-- yet I just purchased songs tonight!! I am looking all over to try and fix this-- HOW?!?! Help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi there, to authorize a computer, you open up itunes, and at the very very top lefthand corner, there will be a little window. Click on that, and it will present you with a list of options. From there, you go to the third option down, which says "Itunes Store," hover over it with your mouse, and it will give you another set of options. From there, you can see the two options, "Authorize" an "Deauthorize computer. Just click on "Authorize," enter in your apple ID and password, and your computer will be authorized! Hope I helped, ~Samuel

After uploading new iOS 6 my iPad 2 randomly quits apps in the middle of using them and sometimes won't even open apps. What can I do to fix this?

2. Hold the Apps in Task Bar down for a second or two until you see the minus sign
3. Tap the minus sign to close Apps
4. Tap center of screen to return to Home Screen

A text like box has appeared on the screen of iphone and have to double click everything also it will not scroll down or across how can I fix this?

A text like box has appeared on the screen of my iphoe and this has to be over the app I want to use. I then have to double click on the icon for it to open. I cannot scroll across or down. I can access the apps but because it will not scroll I cannot access all of the screen. Can nayone help please???

It sounds like VoiceOver is partially on. First try triple pushing the Home button. This may turn VoiceOver off. If that doesn't work going to Settings/General/Accessibility and make sure VoiceOver is Off. Note you may have to use 3 fingers on the screen to scroll.

I am trying set my email (my old uni one) as the default email on my iPad. It's a microsoft exchange one. How can I do this it asks me what the server is and I have no idea how to find this out? And even if I do will that work?

An answer to a similar question on this said they (they not specified as to who) needed to enable two things POS or something and I have no idea what that means. Is it even possible to make it my default mail if it's Microsoft exchange?

If you're simply referring to adding a mail account that uses an IMAP server, the short answer is yes, it will work. What did you mean by default email? You can setup multiple mail accounts so you shouldn't have to worry about a default mail account. To setup additional accounts (or delete for that matter), you can go to Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendar>Select the Account (Delete) or Add Account.
What is your mail provider? Often you can contact your IT department, or if it's a common mail server, googling will find the server relatively easily (ie: gmail: 'Google' 'imap server for gmail'). If, by default mail, you mean your Apple ID, yes you can also create an Apple ID that uses an IMAP associated email address. Your Apple ID can pretty much be any email address as long as you have access to it to confirm the account's creation.

Possibly...
The first step in Upgrading... is to Snow Leopard = OS X 10.6.x
It is Not available as a download... It is a Paid Upgrade.
Do this first...
Check that your Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...
Snow Leopard Tech Specs

If so... Purchase a Snow Leopard Install Disc...

After the Successful Install, run Software Update to get the latest updates for Snow Leopard and iTunes.
Be sure to make a Backup of your Current System Before Upgrading...

While I was restoring my iPhone 4S an error occurred and now my iPhone screen says I need to connect to iTunes but it is not registering in my iTunes, how do I fix this?

I am having difficulty discovering how to finishing the restoration process to my iPhone 4S...

Connect it to the computer via iTunes, then hold down the home screen button and the sleep/wake button so it's almost like you are forcing the phone into recovery mode. The connect to iTunes graphic will show up on the screen of phone, iTunes will get you an alert message saying iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode, restore on iTunes to use iPhone.
