New iPhone now has two year old Apple id
I exchanged iphones last week ,however I am not able to get into my App or iTunes since my two year old original id pops up instead of my current id. I can't retrieve a password as I am with Comcast email not Verizon anymore. My Mac signs into my current account id and password without difficulty.How do I get my current id on my iPhone . Thanks Rich
Call apple and speak to someone in account security.

new iphone 5 and 4 year old macbook, and for some reason my computer says a later version of iTunes is required. So, i went to ITunes and found i have the latest version availble at this time. iTunes say phone can not be synced because it requires a version of 10.7 or greater?
iPhone 5 requires OS X 10.6.8 & iTunes 10.7 or greater. I suspect you're running Leopard, 10.5.8, correct? If so, you will first have to update your OS, then iTunes in order to sync your phone.

I have an iPhone and my 9 year old has an iPad, they are both linked to my Apple ID however I want his to be separate now so that we can send messages and face time. Any suggestions how I do this???
Thank you. I tried changing his id but it changed it on both devices:( Don't really have a clue:( I have set up an email account so that he can get an Apple ID.
Do you by chance know how I do this?!? -

Take it back to where you purchased the device and get another device.

My Iphone 5 will no longer work wiht my Bose Dock? The dock is two years old and I'm using an "Apple" 30 pin to Fire adapter? It stopped after software upgrades?
I Have the exact same issue. Bose sound dock 3 and it does not work for me with my iPad air 2 and iPhone 5 anymore.
Used to to work fine 2 weeks ago.
Is it to do with updating to iOS 8.1.3?
Thanks. -
My iphone 5 has 7GB, went to apple store the guy said my backup that I was restoring from was corrupted so I have to restore it as a new phone wondering that if I do this and it does not work, will iTunes have my old backup saved?
Yes, if you have been backing up on a regular basis.
If this is your first time backing up, then no.
you can check edit - preference - backup - see what is listed -
In between my new iPhone and a old one, I used a replacement iPhone. On the replacement phone there were two backups created. I have a new iPhone now, but only the 2 old backups from my replancement phone. How do I get a older backup on my new phone?
Not sure where you backup to.
ITunes keeps the latest backup only.
Icloud keeps the 3 last backup. -
HT1430 My iPhone is two years old, but now seems to be loosing the charge more frequently, any ideas
My phone is loosing its charge more frequently I leave it on overnight, it's two years old. Is there a life on the battery?
All batteries eventually fail. Make an appointment at any Apple store & the genius bar can confirm whether your battery needs replacing or not. If it needs replacing, the genius bar can handle such.

I just bought an iPhone 4S 3 days ago, but its battery seems to lose 1% every 3-4 minutes. I tuned off some location services, bluetooth, and even siri, and made its settings similar to my two-year old iPhone 4. The 4S can last much shorter. I’m not sure what I can do with the 4S?
I am having the exact same problem with my iphone 5.
I took it back to the Apple store 2 days ago and they gave me a new one, but they told me not to restore it from backup cos if something (an app) is corrupted it will happen again. The only thing they could keep was my contacts cos they did something there that allowed them to transfer them to the new phone. I went home, and downloaded only ONE app (facebook), and guess what - THE PROBLEM IS STILL OCCURING ON THE BRAND NEW PHONE! It is driving me insane as I cant get through the day without my phone.
Really hoping someone has a fix that will work -
I just got an iphone 6. Not all of my music was on itunes, so I logged in and instead of clicking set up as new iphone I hit restore from backup, thinking it only pertained to the music in itunes. Now my new iphone looks just like my old iphone and has iphone 5 settings. How can I undo and get back to iphone 6 settings?
Settings/Reset/Erase all content and settings...
Recently I had to do the sequence above and when the phone rebooted, it came up as a new phone. -
Just bought a new iphone 5, i have an old imac computer OSX 10.5.8 and itune version 10 (updated at great cost last year for iphone4) it dosen't let me restore data... any chance of update or do i have to thow away my computer (and never by Mac again?)
You an use your iPhone without connecting it to a computer.
But the product description for the iPhone clearly states that in order to sync with a Mac you must have OSX 10.6.8 or later. That version of the OSX is usually called Snow Leopard. There are two mo recent versions of OSX. OSX 10.7.x (Lion) and OSX 10.8.x (Mountain Lion).
If you can upgrade your computer to at least Snow Leopard I suggest you do so. -
I recently had a new operating system installed on my two-year old windows computer. iTunes wants me to authorize my computer (again) and then says that I already have five computers authorized. Should I deauthorize all? Would that affect my iPad and iPhone? I may have old, non-functioning computers that are still authorized and should be removed.
Your past purchases are not on the computer. By choosing download all, those purchases will download to the computer.
Once authorized to your iTunes account you can control the computer.
When syncing the iPad the first time you will get the warning " this iPad is synced with another computer, syncing will erase all contents and replace with the contents of this computer"
Say yes, this is what you wan to do. -
If I make a new itunes account on my(now my 12 year old brother's) first generation ipod touch, will any data be deleted? I keep telling him that i don't think anything will be deleted and he keeps saying that he'll have to download everything again. Please answer. I've asked identical questions but received no answers.
It shouldn't be. You can use multiple Apple ID's one one device. But keep in mind that purchases made under one ID are permanently tied to that ID. So if you need to update an app that was purchased with a certain Apple ID, it will needed to be updated with those Apple ID credentials.

iPod nano version 6: random turn off, volume controls don't work, does not turn off, skip does not work. Two years old! Next version of nano has no clip and same amount of storage. I do not want to give up my version 6!
Make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store and pay $75 USD for an out-of-warranty replacement.

I have a new iPhone and have kept my old one to play music in another room. I have recently updated my software on the new iPhone and when it backed up it backed up to the old iPhone, I have therefore lost pictures, messages and apps from my new iPhone as it has backed up to the last session of the old phone, how can I get all my new stuff back and stop it from happening again?

No such thing has occurred. iPhones do not backup to one another.
It is not possible to backup a different iPhone from the one being updated.
If the iPhone was restored with a backup from a different device, restore it again from the correct backup.

Pay attention when restoring the iPhone and select the correct backup to restore from.
