Stupid iPad demands security check after confirming install of new app? Why and can I shut that of somehow my password should be enough!

Stupid iPad demands security check questions after confirming install of new app? Why and can I shut that of somehow my password should be enough!

Judging by the number of successful password hack attempts on internet accounts of all types, clearly password security alone is not enough to verify you are the account holder to a dumb computer.
I'm sure you'd be complaining even more about "stupid iPad" if it allowed anyone who obtained your password easy access without any kind of backup security checks, and spend money on your iTunes / App Store account.
Apple are actively increasing the security of people's valuable iTunes accounts, not decreasing it. Why would you want to make it easier for someone to steal from you and take over your online accounts?

Hi,
don´t be worry, this would not be a problem.
You have to take the same Aplle ID on both devices, then you can sync them via iTunes by using all universal apps on each device, create playlists, albums and all the things you need and sync it, no problem...

I have an iPod Touch which I've had for almost 4 years, with 32 GB of memory. I am unable to update it, and consequently cannot install any newer apps. I am very disappointed that I spent a lot of $$; now Apple wants me to spend $$ again to get a new one. As I mentioned, I am pretty upset. Does anyone know if there's a work around?

I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.
Identifying iPod models
iPod touch (3rd generation)
iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

I installed the new IOS 7 and now it asks me to inform a password, but I really do not know what password I need to inform. Could you help me:

if you mean it asks you to add a passcode to the device, you may say no. It really tries to encourage you to put a code on, by asking twice.....

About a week ago I did a software update on my iPad, but I can't delete any apps, and it won't let me purchase or install any new apps either, what can i do??

Hi there, a week or so ago I did the software update for iOS 7.1.1, but since then, i can't seem to install new apps from the app store, and I can't delete any of my apps. I have already tried to reboot my iPad, i have removed my Apple ID, then did the reboot, and logged in again with the Apple ID, but still no change.
What can I do? I was thinking maybe the update didn't install correctly, and that I should try to reinstall it again, but I'm new to the iPad and it's software so I don't even know if it's possible...

Hi,
Thank you for your reply, I did go to my general settings, but for some odd reason I don't have a restrictions setting, or a reset setting. I thought I could reset all the setting to see if it could be that, but as I said there aren't any.
My husband also has the iPad 2, and also did the software update and hasn't had any problems at all. I took both iPad's and compared the settings thinking maybe there could be a setting that could have been changed when the update was done.

Installed 2 new network printers and can't see old network printer

I installed an Hp2055dn(wired) and an HP Officejet 6000 e609n(wireless) this week for a group of classrooms to share in an elementary school. They work perfectly. My problem seems to be that another printer, HP 2600n(wired), has disappeared from the network and can't be seen by any computers on the wireless network. It still can print from our wired computer lab though. I'm assuming there must be a conflict somewhere but am at a loss to start to figure it out. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello, and welcome to the Discussions.
It sounds as though you may not have gotten Aperture updated to version 2.1.4, which is required to work in Snow Leopard. There are numerous topics about updating to 2.1.4 after attempting to run an earlier version in SL Read some of those:

http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10737633&#10737633
Having updated to 2.1.4 while running Leopard, and before Upgrading to Snow Leopard, I cannot provide a clear path to what to purge in order to get the update done in SL, if you find all is correct regarding the location of the application, etc. Removing Aperture and installing again, but running Software Update before ever launching Aperture may work, and downloading the current trial version (which is 2.1.4) and then applying the Serial number of the package you bought will also work.

Thanks for responding but I had already done all before posting my question andI was all up to date and it still said what it said.

I am open to any other suggestions

If you don't have the Apple ID and password, how did you get Mountain Liomn in the first place? Without the Apple ID and password, you'll need to buy it to download it.

What I am saying is ..........
The iPhone HAS to be active making calls on the UK carrier network for the carrier to identify as "theirs" and therefore eligible for the Carrier to unlock
The way to achieve this is to use a PAYG sim making and receiving calls to establish a customer relationship with the Carrier and then follow the Carrier's process to unlock
With a PAYG it usually means adding a specified (by the carrier ) amount usually £15 /£20 depending on the carrier
This is how O2 function and according to Gemma this is how Vodafone work

I"m going to make the presumption that you've checked the volume and that you don't have it muted. One thing some have suggested is to go into the settings and reset all settings.
It is kind of a drag because you wil have to retweak everything but it's helped for some.

Check your settings for display sleep in System Preferences > Energy Saver.
And be careful if you contemplate changing your video card- Mavericks may not be compatible with a different video card.
