Recovery email is wrong and so are passswords

I have an ipod touch, and in order for me to purchace any music or app I have to agree to some new terms of service or something like that. I have to go to the apple id page where it asks me my security questions, one of them I don't know the answer to, so I had the answers emailed to me. But then I realized my recovery email was an email that is no longer working. So I removed that email from my other opional email list and added one that I am currently using. But it still sends the security questions to the email that no longer exists! I have tried muliple times to reset my recovery email but it never works. How can I fix this?

Apple ID rescue email is wrong and security questions are too old to remember

The apple ID email is completely wrong to the point where ive never owned that email address. I cant change that email because my security questions are from 7 years ago so how do i fix this problem?

You will have to try to recover the password or contact Apple for help.

IF you still cannot recover it, contact Apple according to the instructions here.

I had to change my apple ID due to someone else using it and changing the password, so now i can't sign out of icloud as the email is wrong and i dont have the password to turn off find my iphone. Help!

Basically, someone was hacking my apple account for a while and kept changing the password so i kept resetting it, now i've had to change my email as icloud still wouldn't accept my new passwords - even after being updated. Now i can't sign out of icloud due to it being the wrong email and an unknown previous password, as i can't turn off find my phone.ipad. How do i solve this without losing everything as i can't just delete the account and the usb ports on my laptop have gone so i can't back up to my laptop. I'm running completely on icloud but desperately need it to update so i don't lose all my uni work as well off my ipad.

If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID and that ID is a previous version of your current ID, not an entirely different one.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details and some other circumstances.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device. It may take a short while to remove the account.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

Please, help.

You need to contact Apple. Click here, phone them, and ask for the Account Security team, or fill out and submit this form.

I have installed my lexmark x1100 printer to macpro but it keeps telling me that the ink pots are wrong and they are not how can over ride this issue please help

I have installed my lexmark x1100 printer to my macpro lion but though it registers its there it keeps telling me that the inkjet pots are not in position or wrongly inserted, how can I overcome this problem which is driving me crackers!!!!!

Thanks for the additional info. If the printer works using your Dell Laptop, then the printer is working fine. The problem is with the driver. The Lexmark X1100 is only compatible up to Mac OS 9.2.2. If you have the Mac OS X, unfortunately, it's not compatible with that OS.
You might want to consider purchasing a new printer - preferably a network printer since you have multiple computers. We do have printers that are currently on sale online. You can check it out here: http://bit.ly/KQBDe0
Those printers are compatible with the newest Operating Systems both for Windows and Mac. It also has drivers for Linux.

I closed the cover on my IPad with a draft email open. Now I can only edit the email but cancel and send are grey and nothing else in email seems to work. What to do?

I closed my iPad cover with a draft email open. When I reopened the cover, the cancel and send buttons are grey and all I can do is edit the email. The email app seems frozen. What do I do?

Try closing the Mail app completely and see if it works properly when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work (or if you can't get to the homescreen) then do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Lost email bodies on Thunderbird: many of my emails in Inbox and Archive are missing.

Some emails disappear from my Inbox and Archives. When I try to do a search for some of those emails, I find the header and the first few words, but not the email body. I have four email accounts on Thunderbird--Fastmail, Wiscmail (University of Wisconsin) and two Google accounts, but it doesn't matter which account is used--all accounts occasionally lose an email. For awhile I tried archiving emails right away but discovered that some would get "disembodied" right away. My archives are not stored online--instead they are stored on my computer. I use Thunderbird version 31.3.0 on Ubuntu Linux 14.04.

I think you have the guts of it. Which is a shame, both for you and for me as I really would like to get hold of a before and after file to see what exactly happens when the file is full. I can guess, but without evidence I just can not get the developers to fix it as no one can say for sure what happens.

My email is wrong and can't be corrected

Hi
I have an adobe ID. When I log into it using "email A" it displays my id with "email B". I need to invite "email A" to Creative Cloud, but I can't, because I can't use "email A" as Adobe ID as it thinks it's attached to the account displaying "email B" - "email B" is wrong. I know this is a confusing description, and I only think an Adobe employee can help me with this, as something is messed up in my Adobe account, and can't be correctd via the web interface.
I can't use Creative Cloud because of this.
Best regards
Thomas

Hi Jatin
The instructions above is what is not working.
Here is my scenatio:
I login using:
Username: "Email A"
Password: ****
When logged in my user is displayed with "Email B". If I try to correct this to "Email A" I can't because "it is in use by another Adobe ID" - which can't be true as I am using it to log into this Adobe ID account. Therefore I cant correct this via the Adobe website.

S5 Active Clock wrong and texts are buggy

Last night, my phone decided to change the time an hour back, So I woke up at 6:30 instead of 5:30 causing me to be late for work. BIG PROBLEM!! How the h*ll can I get this resolved before I am late to work again? Also, when I send a text, the response I get will show up... before my text? on the screenExample.. Friend-{On my way} Me-{Where are you} <--- I send this text.. But when I get a response it will appear above it. It bugs me. This phone is getting glitchy and I am getting irritated. Help ATT! Also, I have tried the resetting, pull the battery, blah blah blah!

Hi there! @Okiejoe86 thanks for posting your concerns.
I’m sorry to hear you are having issues with your S5 Active. The texting issue you are experiencing is related to the incorrect time on your phone.
To sort this out, please visit us online at www.att.com/devicehowto/ and select the make and model of your phone.
On the right hand column, select settings, then Date & Time for steps to adjust it. Please ensure you check the automatic date & time option in those settings so that the phone goes by the network time, to avoid the text messages from seeming out of order.
Hope this helps!

How to move recovery partition to sd and where are the bios upates?

Hi,
Im a newbie. Firstly how do I move the recovery partition to my micro sd? Secondly, when I try to find support drivers, bios updates etc, the encore doesn't appear as an option, it only list notebooks!
Tia
Olly

I need some help with this also. The Toshiba utility Create Recovery Media won't back the recovery partition up to an SD card. It wants a USB drive. Why in the world would a tablet back up to a USB device when it only has an SD card?. I've seen some extremely laborious processes to create another kind of recovery partition. I'm out of space on my 32GB Encore and I need to get the recovery partition off of the C: drive. Help anyone...??? Thanks!

Creating a new apple id for login issues is not recommended.

I see my emails come in and then they disappear from my ipad2. Is there a solution for this?

I see my emails come in and then they disappear from my ipad2. Is there a solution for this?

Do you leave the email client on your computer launched and running actively checking the account for new messages and downloading new messages while the iPad's Mail app is doing the same?
If so stop, and see if there is any difference.
More than likely there will be. Although it is possible to access a POP account with more than one email client, a POP account is designed to be accessed with a single email client only and there are some limitations.
No such problem or limitations with an IMAP account.
