TS3988 I changed my Apple ID to my new email address successfully for the iTunes and App store but it won't work for iCloud and it won't recognize my password. I read that this can't be done. How am I supposed to get into iCloud?

I changed my Apple ID to my new email address successfully for the iTunes and App store but it won't work for iCloud and it won't recognize my password. I read that this can't be done. How am I supposed to get into iCloud? I plan on getting rid of my old email address which is my old Apple ID so how is that going to work?

Same question Wish someone had replied!
I changed my Apple ID to my new email and now cannot find any way to access icloud. Unfortunately I had allowed icloud to hijack my airbook files, so of course I am afraid I will lose them tomorrow when I exchange my iphone for a new one and cannot keep an icloud account i cannot access. What a poor sync system! Really atypical for apple!

Elements 13 won't work with new camera, it won't update to raw 8.7.1

Elements 13 won't work with new camera, it won't update to raw 8.7.1. I have downloaded the patch, it is installed but the old version is this there in elements. Thanks, esther

OK I think the problem is probably related to the platform swap and you may need your account re-set. Only Adobe staff can do that. You need to contact Adobe directly using the link below. Use the dropdown menu for boxes (1) & (2) to scroll down the list and choose:
1. Adobe Photoshop Elements
2. Adobe ID, and signing-in
3. Click on the blue button: Still need help? Contact us – then click the area marked chat 24/7, then click “start chat ”
It’s usually possible to start a live chat, if an Adobe agent is free, and often to get the problem fixed right away. Have your serial number and previous case number available. The agent can directly troubleshoot your system if you agree to activate the Adobe Connect add-on.

My 8 key won't work when I press it to put in my password, what can I do?

my 8 key won't work when I press it to put in my password, what can I do?

Presumably you are connecting it from the *Dock Connector.* In this case, the controls on the car stereo should be controlling the iPod and the iPod's controls are disabled.
If you are using the car's connection interface, consult the car manual to find out how to control the iPod. If you are using an adaptor between the iPod and car, ask the adaptors installer or manufacturer.

I am trying to set up the ipod to my email account and it keeps saying it won't work, even though we have confirmed user name and password. Any advice?

i am trying to set up the ipod to my email account and it keeps saying it won't work, even though we have confirmed user name and password. Any advice?

Try deleting the account from the iPod and try reentring all the information again. A lot of times it is easier to reenter the information rather than trying to find and correct the error.
Try Googling for how to setup the email account for your provider on an iPhone. You can try for an iPod Touch but frequently that does not exist.

IPod nano gen 4 forward button won't work, and the hold switch won't either. I've tried restoring it and it didn't fix the problem. Any suggestions?

The forward button won't work and the hold switch doesn't either. I tried restoring it, but that didn't work.

Restore to factory settings.new iPod if you have not yet already. If still problem time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I have a Macbook Pro. iMessage has stopped working. I have provided my apple id and password several times and it won't allow me to log in. Thanks

Can anyone tell me why iMessage on my macbook pro stopped working and why it won't allow me to sign in. The apple id and password are definitely correct.

What happens when you try to sign in?

Hi, back ups to my TC suddenly won't work saying there's a problem with network username/password. Any help greatly appreciated!

I've deselected the disc, reselected it & re-entered the password 3 times now with no luck.
Any help greatly appreciated!

It sounds like you have much more issues than simply the TC..
I can suggest or have suggested the workaround to the TC problem.
Did you try it??
What happened if you did?
Did you simply try the standard old reboot the TC.. ie yank out the power cord. count to 10.. plug in the power cord.
That magically fixes lots of network issues.
Mavericks has some major issues.. do you upgrade install.
Let me strongly recommend a clean install.. if you haven't done it. Your issues with safari look like a corrupted install to me.. but I am not an eggs spurt in OS issues.. by any long stretch of the imagination.. post the issue over in the Mavericks area.
But as an old computer support man.. (old should be emphasised) upgrade installation are anethma.. I have never seen them work 100% and that includes with Mac. Of course you cannot expect windows to work.. but things go wrong in every OS.. no matter how wonderful.
Make sure you have a good TM backup .. clean install and migrate your documents back.. maybe reinstall software from scratch. Not easy but the only way.

Messages won't work, and Bluetooth pref pane won't load. Why?

Since installing Mavericks, that is. Anybody else had same problems?

Sorry to ask the obvious, but you *are* trying to send to another iPhone\iPad or Ipod touch right?

Wireless password won't work

trying to connect to wireless at work, but the password won't work.... i try'd the same password on ipod... works fine... also i can use wireless at home... no prob....
any ideas?

Powerbook G4, you may have a wireless card that is too old and doesn't support newer encryptions schemes like WPA or WPA2. What are you using as your wireless encryption algorithm at home?
Per my profile, you can see that I have a computer designed and manufactured eight years ago. It uses an old 802.11 "Airport" card; not "Airport Extreme" as does my Mac Pro. It doesn't do WPA or WPA2. If the wireless access point (WAP) at work is using those, you'll be prompted for a WEP password because your computer doesn't know any better. But it won't work.
So first thing you need to do is find out what does the WAP use. Next thing you need to do is go into your System profiler and see what kind of Airport card your Powerbook has.
If it's not an "Extreme" or "Express" or whatever, just a plain ol' "Airport" card, then you are SOL trying to use that to connect to your work's WAP if they are using WPA or WPA2. There are some USB wireless thingies that you can plug in to an available USB port and you can use that to access the work (and home) networks. I know that BDAqua has previously posted a URL or three that point to some inexpensive USB 802.11 transceivers that you could use on your Powerbook.
As a side note, if this is indeed the case for your situation, this would also imply that you are probably using an inferior (as in hacked/cracked) wireless encryption protocol at home. Once you get a WPA2-capable USB thingy, get in to your router's wireless setup and change it to WPA2-PSK-AES.

IMessage won't work with 1 contact. (iOS7)

iPhone 4s with iOS7
iMessage won't work with only 1 specific contact.
Prior to updating i was able to iMessage with the contact in question without issue.
Both of us updated to iOS7 yesterday, since then messages between us are Text Messages only. We screwed around with everything. We discovered if i send to his email address (checkmarked with iMessage) it works. ALSO...after searching and trying different things, he can send me iMessages from his number, but when i respond it switches SMSs . FaceTime also works.
It works with all my other contacts without issues.
We both tried the following.
- deleting eahcother as contacts,
- resets (many)
- turned off iMessage (reset network settings)
- logging in and out of appleID in several locations
- removed checkmarks from emails/phone number
- on WiFi, on 3G
- phone restore
Start new conversation: only my phone # is checkmarked. receinve, I have 3 emails and phone number
any ideas?

Updated my Iphone 4s to iOS7 and now imessages won't work

After updating my phone my imessages aren't working (one of the many problems caused by the update). I've tried going under settings to turn on the imessages and logged in with my apple ID but it says it says "iMessage Activation: Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again."

I have had the same problem since updating
However I also have no facetime, and every time I use an app I get a message asking me to review the icloud terms and condition. Would happily do this but all it does is take me to a blank page. Apple support suggested resetting everything via settings, but icloud, facetime and imessaging are"greyed out".
any suggestions anyone?

IMessage won't work without wifi

When I don't have wifi I can't use iMessage. Before I got the ios7 update I could no matter if I had wifi or not, now it won't work without it. Other people can't send me text message is they are still using iMessage. How do I fix it?

Hi Jlm,
Go to Settings>Messages and make sure that "Send as SMS" is turned on. Also, if you want to be able to send longer messages or photos when not on Wifi (i.e., not iMessaging), then also make sure that MMS Messaging is turned on.
Cheers,
GB

IMessage is not working on my iPad since updating to ios7.0.6

iMessage is not working on my iPad since updating to ios7.0.6
It worked well before doing the latest update.
iMessage on My iPhone 4 works fine after doing the same update.
Have done all the usual things plugging into computer, complete shut down and reboot, nothing has worked.
It keeps asking for password for Apple ID, I know I am entering the correct ID, check network is also being displayed.
Nothing wrong with my network either, other iPads and iPhones are working fine on the same network.
Would like this fixed ASAP.
Thanks

IMessage is not working for my new number it will let me use the number the phone was originally set to and my email address but since I updated to iOS 7 it won't let me select my new number; it is just in grey

I just updated to iOS 7 and now my iMessages won't work. It just keeps saying activating iMessage but it's not doing anything; I tried signing in with my Apple ID but then it just lets me send them using my email address and the number the phone was originally set to; even though that is not my actual number that I use as I changed it through Vodafone so the SIM card now has a different number.
It won't even let me click on my number to select it; it is just that faded grey colour and there are no ticks by it;
And when it says "may be a standard SMS charge to activate" I'm not even getting a text through to be able to activate it anyway
How can I fix this?
