My touch id won't work with my Apple ID for a password

I have turned on my touch if for the iTunes and App Store and when ever I download a app or song it won't show that I can use my touch is but it is turned on?

Resolving issues with Touch ID
Make sure that you're using the latest version of iOS.
Make sure that your fingers and the Home button are clean and dry.*
Note: Cover the Home button completely. Don't tap too quickly, don't press down hard, and don't move your finger while Touch ID is scanning. Make sure that your finger touches the metal ring around the Home button.
If you're using a protective case or screen protector, it must leave the Home button and the surrounding ring completely unobscured. If it doesn't, remove the case or screen protector and try again.
Tap Settings > Touch ID & Passcode and verify that:
iPhone Unlock or iTunes & App Store is on.
You enrolled one or more fingerprints.
Try enrolling a different finger.
If you can't enroll any of your fingers, take your iPhone 5s to an Apple Retail Store, Apple Authorized Service Provider, or contact AppleCare for further assistance.
* Moisture, lotions, sweat, oils, cuts, or dry skin might affect fingerprint recognition. Certain activities can also temporarily affect fingerprint recognition, including exercising, showering, swimming, cooking, or other conditions or changes that affect your fingerprint.

Ipod Touch STILL won't work with Windows 64-bit

Argh!
So, I've read the entries about the new Itunes 7.6, and how it should work with my Ipod Touch.
I uninstalled all my previous Itunes, and Quicktime software. I then installed the new Itunes64.exe. Everything worked fine.
But then, I connected by Itouch and it says "This Ipod cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the Itunes installer to remove Itunes, the install the 64-bit version of Itunes."
I'm confused what the problem is. I just DID that!?! What do I need to do differently? Anyone have an idea?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I’ve got the new version of Itunes (7.6.1) but I still get the error where it tells me to download and install a 64-bit version of Itunes. This is just ridiculous!!! I bought my IPOD touch before Christmas and i still haven’t been able to use it!
I've uninstalled and installed itunes and all that rubbish about 5-6 times now, i've deleted everything to do with Apple from my machine and also nearly killed my machine because i messed around with the registry (that's my fault :P)
NOTE: I used IE 64-bit version to download the installer.
Anyone have a solution to the problem?

Airport Extreme won't work with non apple products?

this is a recent problem after years on working ok.

You have not given us enough info to say anything. you haven't asked a question.
AE work fine as AP with non-apple clients.
I have multiple phones and wireless devices from numerous brands working with AE and TC.
What you might find is that naming of the AE has become more of a problem.. so you need to use SMB naming.. ie short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric, for the AE itself and the wireless SSID.
You might also find the latest firmware upgrade did nobody any good. If your AE is the flat one, go back to 7.6.1 which IMHO works better.
If your AE is old it could be just faulty.. it might need replacement.
If you want to do things like wireless extend, then there are huge issues with mixing apple and non-apple wireless routers.. but that is not new.. it has been an issues since Apple routers came out.

Apps from old icloud account won't work with new apple id-Help

I restored a number of ipads from an icloud backup, to include both bookmarks and Ipad apps to my team
I then logged out of both the itunes and icloud accounts associated with these apps, and gave the ipads out to team members.
They each made their own Apple ids to the personalise their accounts.
However now some of them are having the problem that the original apps we installed on the first account don't work.
Is this likely this will be a problem for them all? or is it a just a case of those affected having to do a reinstall.
Thanks

My WRT310n won't work with my Appl Mac Mini and iPhone

Previously I had a weak signal using my WRT54G router. I usually got one or two bars in the house on my iPhone or Mac Mini. I recently "upgraded" to the WRT310N and now I cannot connect wirelessly at all on the mini and only one bar on the iPhone even with the phone inches away from the wireless router. I know these are both G devices, but I didn't expect performance to be worse than with my $49 54G router. Any suggestions?

Are your wireless settings still on auto? Try using the wide radio band with standard channels 1, 6 or 11.
The box said windows xp or better... So I installed Linux!

FaceTime won't work with two Apple devices & One ID

Before I got my iPhone 5c I used to be able to use FaceTime on my MacBook Pro. When I got my iPhone 5c I could no longer use FaceTime on my MBPro. Now FaceTime only works on my iPhone.
When I try to sign-in to FaceTime on my MBPro I get the following:
Your Apple ID "[email protected]" can't be used to set up FaceTime at this time.
I contacted Apple FaceTime Support. They wanted $30 to address my problem.
Has anyone else had this problem?

I am experiencing the same issue logging into my MBPro. I attempted to use FaceTime however when I opened the app it required me to enter in my log in information, which I have never had to do since I first began using the app years ago. Well when I entered in my info clicked NEXT I received this error message: "The server encountered an error processing registration. Please try again later."
Don't get it. Feeling perhaps I need to update my operating system to Yosemite? Will this fix it?

Messenger not working with non-apple cells after changing password iOS password

I changed my password because apple decided to not accept my password simply trying to download an app and after i got home, i lost capabitilty of texting to non-iphones through the messenger app.
It absolutely lost the capability i had before simply by changing my password.
I tried relogging in in all my devices iphone, ipad, and macbook pro and though i can text fine on my iphone, i no longer can text outside of the apple world to android cell phone users.
How do i regain connectivity to the rest of the world instead of just apples?!
Thank you in advance.

Hi,
If the iCloud ID is the same one you use in Messages for the iMessages account then you need to change the password there and in all other devices.
As you tend to be unable to change all devices at the same time the link between the iPhone number and th Apple ID tends to get lost which then means any Text Forwarding linking also gets broken.
On the Mac Version Untick the Enable box for the iMessages account.
On the iPhone remove the Apple ID and place the iPhone in Airplane mode for a good two minutes.
Go back to the Messages settings after this and make sure the iPhone number Verifies.
When this is done turn th Enable box back On on the Mac version.
Untick the iPhone number as a Receive "ID". This may make the Start Conversation From drop down disappear.
Send an iMessages from the iPhone (it can only use it's number) to the Apple ID (Effectively the Mac)
Send a reply.
This will check that the iPhone (Number) can Send and Receive.
Now on the iPhone Add back the Apple ID to re-link them.
This should cause the Pop up to appear on the Mac.
If it does not Restart the Mac version.
This should Enable the unticked iPhone number in the Receive At list and make the Start Form drop down appear.
Now Reset the Text Forwarding.

New ipod touch won't work with itunes 10.6.3 says it needs 11.1 but I cannot load that on my macbook using OSX 10.5.8 any way around this?

New ipod touch won't work with itunes 10.6.3, says it needs 11.1 or newer but I cannot load that onto my MacBook running on OSX 10.5.8 - is there anyway around this?

No. If your MacBook has an Intel processor you can update to OSX 10.6.8 and then install the latest iTunes.
A 5G iPod with iOS 7 requires that if you have a Mac you have OSX 10.6.8 or later.
You can get 10.6.8 here:

IPod touch 3G won't work after falling in water? Help!

Ok it's been 3 months since my iPod touch fell in the...toilet. I immediately put it in rice after pushing all the buttons. It was only in the water for a second. When I picked it up the screen was dim, flickering, then when black. I wiped it off and put it in rice. I left it in rice for about four days. I finally plugged it up to the charger and after 20 minutes it came on. It told me I needed to plug it up to iTunes so I did. I restored it and when it was restored I tried to slide the bar at the bottom of the screen but it would never register. So I let it die and when I charged it again it wanted me to restore it AGAIN! I've restored it about five times!! Each time the touch screen won't work and it doesn't hold a charge very well. Also every time it does it wants me to restore it. What's wrong with it and how can I fix it? Oh and the home button doesn't work.

Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

Tried to update to newest version. I got error because i didn't have this recovery program disc that was supposed to come with the purchase but it didn't and now my ipod touch 8gb won't connect with itunes and is stuck on a connection with itunes screen

I tried to update to newest version via pc. I got error because i didn't have this recovery program disc that was supposed to come with the purchase so it says, but it didn't and now my ipod touch 8gb won't connect with itunes anymore and is stuck on a screen displaying an itunes icon with a usb icon.

oke i'm not done with the whole thing, but i'm doing that right now. Most of the advice I've already read didn't work and at a certain point it said something about shutting down programs then restart. but i notice that there are some pretty important system things in that list and i don't want to mess up my pc :s i'm not a pc genius... and because i'm dutch and my pc-language is in dutch I often have trouble translating and well... i don't always understand the technical stuff in all the articles -_-

FM transmitter won't work with my iPhone

I bought a Premier FM transmitter from Auto Zone the other day. It has a 30-pin connector with an led panel that lights up when you connect it to an apple device. It's suppose to work with all 30-pin devices but doesn't work with my iPhone 4 (iOS 7.1.2). I have tried it with my iPod Touch 2g and two other iPhone 4's that belonged to my friends, and it worked with all three devices. Any explanation why it won't work with mine?

"the Middle East" is a really big place. I suspect you bought a gray market hacked phone. Call Apple Care and give them the serial number. Maybe they can tell you if it's locked and to what carrier.

Wacom Intuos Tablet Touch Function Won't Work On Mac OS X

Hi there,
I recently purshased a Wacom Intos pen & touch tablet, model CTH-480. But the touch function won't work.
I've done the following, but it still won't work:
1. Re-install the driver to the latest. (Driver Driver 6.3.8-2 from http://us.wacom.com/en/support/drivers/)
2. Turned on the switch on the tablet. Whenever I touch the tablet, the blue signal light at the top-right corner will be on.
3. In the app named "Wacom Desktop Center", the "Touch Settings" shows "Touch On". So the software is configured well.
4. In the "System Preferences" --> "Walcom Tablets", the "Touch Options" is available and is able to configure. There's no option there which saya "Enable Touch Input" as seen in some tutorials online.
The other functions are perfect. I can use the pen, I can set custom functions to all buttons on the tablet.
Someone meet similar problems before? I sincerely appreciate your help!
Best Regards,
A new Walcom user in desperate

I had the same exact problem. No matter what I did, tablet LED lights and diagnostic testing mode indicated touch sensors working but no corresponding screen functions. This included removing the app/plist installation through CleanMyMac 2 and a subsequent reinstall. You may have fixed your problem by now but Wacom customer support sent me this advice within a day and it worked for me on first try. Touch gesture and pen functions seem to work equally well now.
Key is to use the uninstall utility within the Wacom app itself.
Thank you for contacting Wacom Customer Care. The problem that you received maybe cause by a corrupted driver file. While you may have already reinstalled the driver, please follow these specific instructions:
Open your Applications folder and locate any Tablet or Wacom Tablet folders you have
Use the Utility in each of these folders and click ‘Remove’ under ‘Tablet Software’
Once the software is removed, restart the computer
Once this is complete, download and install the latest 6.38 driver from: (Current as of Aug 2014)
http://cdn.wacom.com/u/productsupport/drivers/mac/professional/WacomTablet_6.3.8 -2.dmg
As always, make sure your tablet is connected directly to your computer. Avoid using USB hubs, keyboard/monitor ports, or docking stations with the tablets, as they can cause inconsistent behavior.

My Viewsonic monitor won't work with the Imac using the Mini Port to DVI adapter.

My Viewsonic monitor won't work with the Imac using the Mini Port to DVI adapter. I also tried the HDMI to DVI adapter ane the Mac-Mini with same result. The monitor does work on my older Macbook Pro that has the DVI connector. Is it a Software/Driver issue ?

Should be extremely simple, please carefully read Connect multiple displays to your Mac. If you still have problems then it's probably a cable issue that would be resolved by replacing the adapter cable. You should be using this adapter. If you are using a third party adapter that might be your problem!
