Stolen smartphone, can I activate an old one?

My iPhone disappeared last weekend and I was hoping to just be able to reactivate an old Env Touch while I wait for the replacement. When I went to reactivate, a warning appeared that said my "Smartphone Talk Free" deal could disappear if I activated a non-smartphone. Considering the fact that this is just for 2 days, I don't have an issue paying for something I'm not using, but I just don't want my plan to be messed up when I get my new phone later this week.
Does anyone know if I can keep the same plan with the Env?

This is what pops up:
-You must keep the $29.99 Data Package associated with your eligible Smartphone device
-You must keep your current plan. If you change your plan, the promotion and the $9.99/line/mo.
Credit will be removed.
-An eligible Smartphone must be associated with your plan. If you upgrade or change to a
non-Smartphone device, the promotion and the $9.99/line/mo. credit will be removed.
I looked at the breakdown of the plan for my line and it says specifically that I have no promotions. The other line only has an employer discount, and there is no mention of the free plan. I am the secondary line, so it's the typical $9.99 a month like it is for any phone.

How can I change my old Apple ID? I have a new one created but can't deleted the old one it's gray and u can't tap on it?

I'm able to use the new one even tho the old one is there? But can't delete the old one because it's frayed out n can't tap on it to change it to the new one

You will need to use that old Apple ID and password to update any apps you purchased using that account. So you will either need to recover that Apple ID, which if you forgot the password you should be able to reset here:

or you will need to delete all those apps and repurchase them using your current Apple ID.

How can I activate an old version of Photoshop that I've loaded on my new tablet? The web activation doesn't work, and when I call the number, it says it's not being used anymore. Meanwhile, I'm down to 13 days till it stops working due to not being activated. HELP? I really need to continue using this product for my home business.It works fine not activated but the threat is that it will stop working in 13 more days if I don't get it activated, and none of the activation methods they list seem to work.

My old laptop crashed, and took my iTunes account with it. I got a new laptop, and want to sync my iTouch to my new iTunes account. It gives me an error message stating that I can't sync to multiple iTunes accounts, but I can't access my old one! Help!

How can I get my new iTunes account to allow me to Sync my iTouch? The only option it gives me is to "transfer purchases" from my iTouch to iTunes, but that is only about 25% of my iTunes library-most of it is CDs I have uploaded. How can I Sync without losing all my music from my iTouch???
Also, I have lectures and photos, etc. on my iTouch that I don't want to lose.
I've tried a few of the iPod copy programs-the free ones and the ones you have to pay for, but I can't find one that will work for ALL my content on an iTouch.
Right now, I can't get anything from my iTouch to iTunes, and I can't update my iTouch with my new iTunes purchases, so I'm stuck! Help!

Also-I tried to use my backup hard drive, but I wasn't able to drag/transfer/send/move any of my muic files onto my iTouch when the iTouch was connected to my computer. I can't figure out why it won't let me do that.
The only thing I can see when I open my iTouch on my computer is my file with photos. I can't see videos, music, or anything else. What's going on?

I have two apple id's because my hotmail account is no longer active. How can I delete the old one and use or update the new one? Every time I try it won't allow me and now my iPad thinks there are two accounts and they are arguing with each other. Help!

You can't merge accounts or copy content to a different account, so anything that you bought or downloaded via the old account is tied to that account - so any updates that those apps get you will only be able to download via that account. You can change which account is logged in on the iPad via Settings > Store

Are you sure ? As far as I know an Apple ID can only be associated with one email address.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

My Lightroom 4 wouldn't open. A computer tech worked on my computer to clean it all up, etc. however Lightroom still wouldn't open. He opened a new catalog and that will work, however I can't find my old one with all my photographs. When I click on open catalogs, it goes to documents and I can't find any catalogs there.

What happens if you try File->Open Recent? What happens if you have your operating system search all of your hard disks for files whose name ends with .LRCAT?

HT4859 my iphone is listed twice in manage storage under backups. can i erase the old one?

my iphone is listed 2x in manage storage under backups. i think it's because verizon replaced a broken phone, but they helped me set the new replacement one up so i would think the old one shouldn't appear at all. can i erase the old one?
this is on my iphone under: settings-icloud-storage&backup-manage storage-
it shows the old phone latest back up date the day that i sent it back to verizon (6.7GB). they recommend a back up before you send it to them. the current iphone is 7.2GB, so yes i have been having storage problems. i just want to make sure it will be ok to erase the old one iphone.

why would someone need the old backup? isn't everything from the old back up on the new iphone backup?
I just wanted to be clear that if you delete it, it's permanently gone. So make sure you check your phone to be sure it has all your data before deleting it. If it does, go ahead.
when verizon helped me set up the replacement phone, it transferred the 6.7GB to the new one right?
I don't know what Verizon did; judging from the size of your new backup it would seem that they did. Check your phone. If it has all your data, go ahead and delete the old backup.

How can I activate my old iPod classic?

I thought that my iPod classic had been stolen a while ago and eventually went out and bought a new one. Now, I have found the old one - it had slid down behind a rather large piece of furniture in my house and needless to say, I'm thrilled to find it. I want to give it to my daughter.
But when I try to activate it by plugging it into my MacBook Pro, iTunes doesn't seem to recognise it. What can I do about this? Also, I am not sure if I have the registration number anymore. Any advice would be appreciated! Thank you,
Paddy O'Dea

There is no need to activate old iPod, it just need to be recharged, if the battery is still in working condition.
Try this, it wont delete any music in your iPod, the critical step is charging the battery.
After charging till full charge, at least 2 hours (preferably 4 hours) ( for the first 30 minutes, there wont be any sign of life on the iPod screen)
Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the next step
Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs or till the Apple Logo comes ON
Then release the buttons
Select your preferred language.

IOS6 Maps function is terrible, can I restore the old one?

Help. What has happened to the Map application in iOS6? It is terrible, almost unusable. The resolution is used to be good, now places I could easily see in fine detail are either gone from the map entirely or the resolution has been dowgraded significantly. Railway lines seem to have disapeared also? What has happened? Why release an update with significantly worse performance than the one it replaces? I need the map app and I can't really use it in it's current condition. Can I go back to the previous operating system? Is there a way of rolling back my system and restoring the old one?
Thanks

Regardless, if the iOS 6 Maps app doesn't work for you, then it doesn't work. Apple reports that they are working on improving their new Maps service. You can reports problems via these procedures:
http://www.macrumors.com/2012/09/24/how-to-report-a-problem-with-ios-6-maps-data /.
Until iOS 6 Maps reaches the level of finesse necessary to be fully usable to you, take a look at some alternatives:
Bing Maps offers a very good maps service with Bird's Eye, a feature similar to Flyover. It's arguably better than Google Maps.
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/bing/id345323231?mt=8
You can use Google Maps by creating a shortcut to the Home Screen with help from the article below.

MapQuest also has a very nice app available.

Nokia Maps is another great service that you can add to your Home Screen via a web shortcut.

Waze is another very well reviewed app.

When i downloaded firefox i choose ur tools i do not like it can i have my old ones back

when i downloaded firefox it asked if i wanted to use firefox browser or my old one. not knowing i would loose things. is there a way to switch back please

What is it that you have lost and want back ?
And was your ''old browser'' another version of Firefox or a completely different browser.
If for instance you have lost Google Toolbars not that this is no longer supported by Google on Firefox because basically it adds very little if any functionality that Firefox does not already have, (and you can still gain access to google bookmarks if that happens to be one of your problems).

* [[installing a previous version of firefox]] - note Firefox 3.6 is the last supported version if you do not like Firefox 8, firefox 4, 5, 6, & 7 are no longer supported or considered secure.
* [[importing bookmarks and other data from other browsers]]
Post back with more information about your problems please.

How can I activate an old version of Dreamweaver on a new computer? (2004 version)

I had Dreamweaver 2004 on my old laptop which recently crashed. I need to transfer the program to my new computer. Online activation has been shut down for this version. How can I activate it?

Keep in mind that 2004 software is more than a decade old now. Adobe no longer supports it. And it was never intended to run on modern operating systems so you may experience problems. Also, web standards have changed a LOT in 10 years. This might be a good opportunity to update your software.
