  • Apple TV keeps telling me there is a problem with my apple ID and password when I try to connect to home sharing. I have checked and rechecked and re-entered several times with same message.

    I just bought an Apple TV and am trying to set it up. I am connected to wireless, is having difficulties setting time and date. When I try to connect to iTunes and sharing. It keeps telling me that there is a problem with my apple ID and password. I have quadruple checked and re-entered and it won't recognise it. What do I do? Dan.

    Sounds like it is more an issue of connecting to the internet. Not just the WiFi Some people have reported that performing a power cycle on their Internet router solved this.

    You may reset the password on your account by opening https://iforgot.apple.com/ in Safari and entering your Apple ID (your email address, which the moderators should have removed earlier).
    You won't be able to set the password to your email address, or a recently-used password (if I remember correctly).
    Once you change your password, you should update your password on your iOS device in Settings > iTunes & App Store, then tapping the "Apple ID: <username>" cell at the top to re-enter your password.  (Your iOS device may prompt you for the new password before getting to Settings as well.)
    Hope that helps.  If you have a different issue, please post a follow-up message.

    I am connected to my home wifi network. Why can't I sign in??

    Not sure, but iAd Producer probably has nothing to do with this.
    Did you try posting in a forum that discusses iPhone, or FaceTime, or networking?
    I searched and this looks like the best fit : https://discussions.apple.com/community/iphone/using_iphone

  • I'm trying an email address i know is mine yet still getting this message:"That Apple ID is already in use.If this Apple ID was created by you, simply sign in with your Apple ID and password.If it does not belong to you, try again using a different name."

    I keep getting this message:  "That Apple ID is already in use.If this Apple ID was created by you, simply sign in with your Apple ID and password.If it does not belong to you, try again using a different name."
    I'm trying to create a new id and e-mail using an e-mail address that is mine and has been mine for over a year - any ideas why this could be happening?

    Trying where? What sort of email address? The following answer is based on a guess as to what you are talking about.
    If you already have an @me.com address, perhaps as a result of having had a MobileMe account, and you are now setting up an iCloud account with an Apple ID you will find you will be asked to create a new @me.com address, and that you can't add your existing one because it is already an Apple ID.
    You can do one of two things:
    1. Sign out at System Preferences; sign in with your existing @me.com address and enable Mail.
    2. Stay signed in with the present ID and add your @me.com address in System Preferences>Mail, Contacts & Calendars.
    If you have further questions, or if your situation is different from what I've assumed, do please post back, but in a suitable forum - this one is specifically about using these Forums.

    I want to buy the Craigslist pro app and when I sign into iTItem as described and fast shipping! Aunes with my Apple ID  and password ( both of which I know) it then asks security questions that I never chose ( or are even options to chose) in my profile.

    If you don't know their answers then if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page should let you reset them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

    how can i gps locaite my ipod for free with my apple id and password?

    Hi donald,
    You can only "locate" your iPhone using Find My iPhone. It must be enabled, and you must have iCloud....

    Do you have an iCloud account (did you make one?)

  • TS3988 Not able to login to icloud with my apple id and password

    Not able to login to icloud online. with my apple id and password, getting an error.

    Have you already set up the account in System Preferences>iCloud on a Mac or Settings>iCloud on an iOS device? If so are you sure you are using the correct ID? - many people have different IDs for iTunes and iCloud, and it's easy to get them confused.

  • I just got an iphone 3GS and am trying to set up a game center account and it lets me log in with my apple id and password but when it come time to set up a nickname it tells me my email is already in use with another apple id. How do I fix this?

    I have been trying to log in to the game center for 2 days now with no luck. I have an apple id and have never used game center before. It keeps telling me my email is already in use with another apple id and I have no idea how to get around this and would like to be able to play my games.

    If the problem persists, you'll probably have to make another apple id, it wont take off any games or music or apps or anything you've bought it will all stay there, i have two apple id's and i don't have a problem with anything.

  • Problems with setting first username and password

    I haven't used a cisco router in over 12 years, so I'm a bit rusty.  I had to replace a nortel box for a small charter school here in Hawaii, so I decided to go with a cisco 1941 / K9 router. using a usb terminal connection I started up the router as directed in the PDF documentation for this box.  It warned me that I must change the starting username and password (<cisco> and <cisco> respectively) with my own username and password.  I wanted to change this to <cisco1> and a simple password.  I thought I followed the directions, but I failed to reset the user name and password.  As I was looking up online for help on how to set a new username and password, the terminal window timed-out and now I can't log in to the 1941 router at all.
    How do I reset the router?  Once I do how do I correctly setup  username and password after I login once with cisco and cisco?
     Any help would be appreciated.
    I'm attaching a screen capture of the terminal window...

    How do I reset the router?
    Power OFF the router.
    If you look at the back (where the power button is) and to the lower left-hand corner, you'll observe two CF slots.  Pop the cover open and eject the CF. 
    Power up the router.  
    Observe the console terminal and when you see "rommon1>" enter the command "confreg 2142".  
    After the command has been accepted, insert the CF back and reboot the router.  
    Your router should boot into factory default (Username & Password are "cisco") but the config-registry value is still 2102.  
    Do the following:
    ​conf t
    config-registry 0x2102
    username BLAH password BLAH
    end

  • Problems with invalid user name and password

    We have a one week old MacBook 2.2GHz basic white model that is generally working well.
    However a problem has now arisen whereby on any attempt to shutdown or restart it won't accept the administrator user name and password, returning an 'invalid' warning. The issue seems to be the user name as the administrator password has worked OK in other situations. Naturally I have checked and re-checked the user name (which was in the form (first name followed by surname in upper and lower case) and it was OK (in any case it was being prompted automatically by the system.)
    I have subsequently changed the administrator name (to the form first name only in upper and lower) and the password as suggested by the following article:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306876
    Nothing has changed. Can anyone help?

    HI Martin, a late post to confirm the solution from the last post by using the "RETURN" key works..
    (mouse click worked ok in Tiger 10.4.x I thought).
    Tis was a delight and so obvious after seeing these symptoms.
    I have posted this entry in case anyone else get's into this situation since OSX LEopard 10.5. Several people have encountered this issue where they may have:
    • LEopard 10.5.x installed
    • have 2 or more active users LOGGED into the OSX system via fast user / fastuser switching
    • request a SHUTDOWN or RESTART from an user
    • get a OSX request to supply administrator attributed user and it's associated password to validate SHUTDOWN | RESTART request,
    • have admin | root account verification failure of password after 'clicking'.
    After some months of frustration, it seems a simple PRESS of the "RETURN key" works!
    Simply, DON'T mouse click after entering admin user/password.... instead press "RETURN" key.
    fwiw.
