Recently purchased a used IPad 2 but it still has previous owner's data. I've been told not to sync it to my computer as it will cause problems. What do I need to do to make it compatible with accounts on my mac and ipod touch?

You can wipe the iPad's contents completely by going to Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content and Settings. This will remove all of the previous user's apps, data, settings and so on from the iPad and you can set it up as your own.

Could anybody please help me how to set APN in Iphone5 with IOS7? I do not find APN in setting under cellular.
Please help me.....

I presume that would be a passcode to the Restrictions. You'll need to restore the iPhone to factory settings. If the customer set up Find My iPhone and hence Activation Lock, you'll need the customer's Apple ID and password, or you'll need to get them to erase it via iCloud:

Problems setting up 2way SSL with option Client certs requested Not Enfor

Hi,
Iam having problems trying to set up 2 way SSL with the option "Clients Certs Requested But Not Enforced". I am using DefaultIdentityAsserter with my own implementation of UserNameMapper. And I have the login-config set to CLIENT-CERT in web.xml. I have tested this setup and it works when I have "Client Certs Requested and Enforced" but when I change it to "Requested and not enforced" it gives an 401 unauthorized exception.
Any help with this will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Praveena.

Hi Peter,
I'm afraid not, I turned to Apple support forums, followed their advice for troubleshooting Mac Mail (obviously not relevant to you using Outlook) but It involved scanning ports checking firewalls etc, all of this was clear and I just cannot see the problem.
I even got one of the Livechat BC guys to look into it, by setting up a dummy email address on the client's account, I think he was rather intrigued, but I'm not sure he's had much luck as he still hasn't got back to and that was over 20 hours ago.
Can your client receive emails? I can only get my client's account receiving emails, when I try to send an email I just keep receiving an message telling me that it cannot connect to smtp!
According to the BC fact sheet for sending and receiving emails: "By Default, email software will set the SMTP port to 25, which is the standard port for the smtp protocol. However our mail service has two alternative ports available that you can send through. 8025 or 587.
However it's not blocked and those port settings didn't work either.
The Apple fact sheet made mention to firewall settings possibly also blocking, but it's not relevant to me using my version of OS.
Good luck, and please repost if you get any further.
I am now just looking for a reason that my client's mail WONT work on Mac Mail, just so I can sound professional when I tell them the answer is "no".

Problems Setting Alerts on iCal with Yosemite

I am having problems setting alerts on iCal. Generally, I set for reminders at 1 day ahead, and then 2 hours ahead. When I enter the first alert everything is fine, and then on the second, the alerts switch places so that the one day before alert occurs as the second alert, and the 2 hours before as the first alert. Is there something I am missing? It is purely frustrating. Using Mac Book Pro, running Yosemite 10.10.1. Thanks!

First, verify you're using Calendar and not iCal, which was deprecated a long time ago.
Then, update OS X. 10.10.2 is the current release.
Using Calendar, I can't duplicate the problem, but perhaps I am misunderstanding your description of it. If you would kindly provide really simple step-by-step instructions, I'll try again and let you know what I observe. It could very well be a bug.

I have the new ipad / ipad3 . I upgraded to ios7 but I didn't get pages and numbers apps free, but my colleague who is using ipad4 with ios7 it is free. more over my ipad is not showing airdrop facility. please help me out in how to rectify those

please help me out somebody. I need pages and numbers apps immediately. I have ipad3 with ios7 running in it. Apple announced iPhoto, iMovie, Keynote, pages, numbers all are free for ios7 users. but for me it's not like that. shall I download or should I wait. in my ipad airdrop also not coming. but my colleague has both apps also comin for free and airdrop also coming who has ipad4 with same version of ios7.0.2

They are free to iOS 7 users who have activated their NEW device on Sept 1 2013 or after. They are NOT automatically free with iOS 7.
AirDrop is only compatible with iPad 4th gen and iPad mini. iPad 3rd gen and below do contain the necessary hardware for AirDrop. Also, AirDrop is only compatible between iOS devices. You cannot AirDrop between iOS device and Mac OS.

How can i download a movie onto a ipad mini that is not set up using my apple id without deleting everything on the ipad?

I have a Ipad mini that is set up on another Apple ID that is different than mine. I wish to know if it is possible for me to downlaod a movie onto it without having to remove everything off it.

I had the same question as was asked here, and I see that if I turn off my Wi-Fi on my iPad I can no longer access the iTunes Extras. However, if the extras are streaming-based, why is the file size of movies with Extras so much larger than those without? Any other HD movie with a similar running time is between 1.5 and 2.5GB, all with Extras are between 3.5 and 5GB. The problem isn't the Extras, its the lack of space on my iPad.

HT201407 I'm trying to activate my iphone that i got used. i restored it to factory settings and it says it is activated under the previous owners apple id. They are not with me nor do i know how to get a hold of them. What do i do to reactivate it?

I'm trying to activate my iphone that i got used. i restored it to factory settings. I'm now trying to activate the phone and it says it was originallyh activated with someone else appleid. They aren't around nor do i have anyway of getting a hold of them. How do i activate the phone with my appleid?

If you cannot contact the previous owner, then the iPhone is unusuable. There is no way past the activation lock without the Apple ID and password used to set up the lock, or the previous owner removing the device from his/her iCloud account.
If you purchased the iPhone though a service such as eBay that offers buyer protection, contact that service and file a complaint and get your money back. If you purchased the iPhone privately, then you've wasted your money.

Ipad 3 with ios6 can not find airplay mirror to Apple TV 3 , but my another ipad2 with ios7 can do it. But ipad 3 with ios6 can airplay mirror to my friend's apple tv

I have two iPads . One is ipad 3 with ios 6, can not find airplay-Mirror to Apple TV 3 . But it can do it at my friend' s Apple TV.
My another ipad 2 with ios7 can airplay -mirror at my Apple TV 3 .
My ipad 3 64GB already full, so I don't delegate something to upgrade to ios7 .
I am wondering why it can do it at my friend's Apple TV, not mine

Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
Restart your mobile device.

Bought a used iPad. How do I replace previous owner's ID with my ID?

How do I replace a previous owners ID with my ID? How do I get back to the set up screen?

You can log out of the old own's account by tapping on the id in Settings > Store, and then do Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content And Settings to remove all content from it and put the iPad back to factory defaults

I purchased my iMac used. When I try to update my apps the computer automatically fills in the previous owner's Apple ID and I can't change it. Any ideas?

I purchased my iMac used. When I try to update apps in AppStore, the computer automatically fills in the previous owner's email address and it won't let me delete it to enter mine. I have been using my own apple ID and password on this computer for other things without a problem. Any ideas?

Before buying a second-hand computer, you should have run Apple Diagnostics or the Apple Hardware Test, whichever is applicable.
The first thing to do after buying the computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. You—not the original owner—must do that. Changes made by Apple over the years have made this seemingly straightforward task very complex.
How you go about it depends on the model, and on whether you already own another Mac. If you're not sure of the model, enter the serial number on this page. Then find the model on this page to see what OS version was originally installed.
It's unsafe, and may be unlawful, to use a computer with software installed by a previous owner.
1. If you don't own another Mac
a. If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller—not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine is very old and has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. Preferably, install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
b. If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for a MacBook Air. You should have received the media from the original owner, but if you didn't, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
To start up from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then restart the computer and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
c. If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should start up in Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
d. Some 2010-2011 models shipped with OS X 10.6 and received a firmware update after 10.7 was released, enabling them to use Internet Recovery. If you have one of those models, you can't reinstall 10.6 even from the original media, and Internet Recovery will not work either without the original owner's Apple ID. In that case, contact Apple Support, or take the machine to an Apple Store or another authorized service provider to have the OS installed.
2. If you do own another Mac
If you already own another Mac that was upgraded in the App Store to the version of OS X that you want to install, and if the new Mac is compatible with it, then you can install it. Use Recovery Disk Assistant to prepare a USB device, then start up the new Mac from it by holding down the C key at the startup chime. Alternatively, if you have a Time Machine backup of OS X 10.7.3 or later on an external hard drive (not a Time Capsule or other network device), you can start from that by holding down the option key and selecting it from the row of icons that appears. Note that if your other Mac was never upgraded in the App Store, you can't use this method.
3. Partition and install OS X
a. If you see a lock screen when trying to start up from installation media or in Recovery mode, then a firmware password was set by the previous owner, or the machine was remotely locked via iCloud. You'll either have to contact the owner or take the machine to an Apple Store or another service provider to be unlocked. You may be asked for proof of ownership.
b. Launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive—not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive.
c. An unusual problem may arise if all the following conditions apply:
          OS X 10.7 or later was installed by the previous owner
          The startup volume was encrypted with FileVault
          You're booted in Recovery mode (that is, not from a 10.6 installation disc)
In that case, you won't be able to unlock the volume or partition the drive without the FileVault password. Ask for guidance or see this discussion.
d. After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. If you're installing a version of OS X acquired from the App Store, you will need the Apple ID and password that you used. When the installation is done, the system will automatically restart into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
e. Run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. To upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, get it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the original owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed—you have to repurchase them.
4. Other issues
a. If the original owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're irrevocably linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Mac App Store Customer Service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
b. If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able to authorize it immediately under your ID. In that case, you'll either have to wait up to 90 days or contact iTunes Support.
c. When trying to create a new iCloud account, you might get a failure message: "Account limit reached." Apple imposes a lifetime limit of three iCloud account setups per device. Erasing the device does not reset the limit. You can still use an iCloud account that was created on another device, but you won't be able to create a new one. Contact iCloud Support for more information. The setup limit doesn't apply to Apple ID accounts used for other services, such as the iTunes and Mac App Stores, or iMessage. You can create as many of those accounts as you like.

HT201441 If you've found an iPod that was locked using Find My Phone/Activation Lock, and cannot contact the previous owner, is there any way to activate it still?

I came across a 5th gen iPod touch at a bus stop, and tried but cannot activate it, as it is under the Find My Phone/ Activation Lock.
Since I do not know who the previous owner is, is it possible to get around this roadblock? Or is it just no good to try?

There's no way to get around it. Turn it into the police so they can find the rightful owner. You won't be able to use it anyway.

Interesting Problem in VA4Java: Using POST with forward(req, res)

I am trying to use POST Metod with forward(request, response) in VisualAge for java using webSphere test environment and getting an error page. Interesting thing is that if I set a breakpoint then I get the desired page otherwise an error page. However, if use GET Method everything works fine. What confuses me is that why POST method is not working without setting a breakpoint and running the code in debug mode? Does it has to do with WebSphere test environment or problem of using POST method with requrest forwarding in servelt API?

Hi there,
I am beginning in developping jsp / servlet in VAJ3.5 and Websphere Test Environment.
i manage to run the servlet properly. unfortunetely the jsp is not working properly : in my hello.jsp (this example is coming from tomcat4.0), there is a method 'request.getContextPath()'
WTE send me a message : 'method not found in interface javax.servet.http.HttpServletRequest'
Any idea hox to solve this?
VAJ3.5, WTE use JSP1.0, is it something linked to this?
Thanks to you.
Regards
Hugues
