The email on my apple ID password box isn't mine. How do I change it back?
When I go to pull up an app, the little blue box pops up and asks for your apple password. The apple ID above where the password is entered is not mine. I noticed this a couple days ago. How do I change that to match my actual apple ID?
Settings > iTunes and App Store > Apple ID = Sign Out... Then Sign In using the preferred Apple ID.
It should be Noted that anything Downloaded with a Particular Apple ID is tied to that Apple ID and Cannot be Merged or Transferred to a Different Apple ID

The email where security questions are being sent is invalid. How do I change it
The email where security questions are being sent is invalid. How do I change it.
You cannot change your Rescue email address after you have forgotten your Security Questions. Once you get everything reset, you will be able to change it. For now, you are going to have to contact Apple Support to get them reset:

My IPad screen has turned a weird colour, the background is white and the letters white instead of the other way round. Colour photos look like negatives. How can I turn it back to a white background.
Dear Steve,
You are wonderful! You are the best! I'm Stephania and I recently purchased a refurbished ipad2. I've had it for about 3 weeks now and updating & fixing it so my liking. The only thing that I couldn't correct were the photos that looked like negatives. Every photo, even on the internet, on apps, everywhere! I just couldn't figure out how to fix it. I contacted Apple Care and its too difficult to get in touch with them. I had looked through support before but didn't put in the right question. Well, today I got lucky. I did the two things you suggested and turning the "White On Black" off did the trick. I'm so happy! I had a feeling it was something simple and this is not even in the manual!

can not verify apple id. The email on my itunes account is no longer good.
You can change it. At the top of iTunes, click Store > View My Account, log in with your password, View Account. To the right of your Apple ID click the word Edit, and it will take you to a page where you can edit your email address.
You are right to avoid creating a new account if at all possible, since having multiple accounts usually causes complications down the line. -
IPhone asks for Apple ID password which isn't mine?
Hi how's it going?
Is is on behalf of my friend..(not very techy)
She has an iPhone 4 and is running iOS 5, today she told me that it has started asking her for passwords to Apple IDs she has never heard of and used,
It occurs after she unlocks the phone and now has started doing it randomly.
She has not used anyone else computer to sync it, and she is logged on to her account on the computer and on the iTunes/app store on the iPhone, there are no current downloads on the computer or the phone.
Any help is greatly appreciated.The same thing is happening to me too and I have no idea why!

My son's touch is not resonding to a single touch nor repsonding to a scroll (i cannot go to the next page). there is now a white outlined box around a app that you have to double click on to do anything. How do I get rid of the box and go back to single touch and scroll?
Head to Settings -> General - > Accessibillity and make sure VoiceOver is turned off. You'll have to double tap each of these to proceed. You'll also need to use 3 fingers to scroll as well.

I've checked my about:config settings beforehand since I hear the setting for this is usually in there. It's still the same and hasn't been changed. As far as I know, I haven't downloaded any add-ons recently that would cause this change. None have been installed recently. Here's a screenshot of the about:config.
Did you try Safe Mode?
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

My Apple Store lists prices in $ and not £ how can I change this?
My Apple Store lists prices in $ and not £ - how can I change this back to £?
Are you referring to the AppStore application, or to the Apple Store web-site? If the former, like Carolyn says; if the latter, then you need to go to http://www.apple.com/uk/
However, if the former then you haven't set up your computer for the UK, go into System Preferences and configure your region. -
The "apple ID Password" box along with the keyboard pops up when I turn the iPad on and it stays there. I have changed my email address on my iMac and also changed my password. The old email address is still on the iPad. Anyway, I can't use the iPad because can't get the apple id password box to go away. Thanks for any help!
This is an older photo but the sleep and home buttons are still in the same place on all iPads. The home button is the round button at the bottom of the iPad and the sleep button is also called the on/off button and it is at the top right corner of the iPad.

I received and email from Apple Customer Support that my Id has been stolen and that I am to sign into the link provided and update by changing password. I am not certain that the email came from Apple.
It did not come from Apple. Do not click on the link and do not supply your password. It is a scam. You can report the phishing email to Apple here:
Phishing & Other Suspicious Emails
Once you have done so, delete it.

Hi there.
I did a factory restore and then restored it with iCloud back-up. I have been using lots of Apple products and i have used three different email adresses. Almost all apps restored perfectly but everytime i try to play a song in the Music app, i asks me for a Apple-ID i had no idea i have used.
Hence:
I lost my password for my original iTunes account
I can't recover it because the email address it is registered under is not longer valid
How can I access my old account?
Can't find a place to change the email address to my new one without the password which I no longer remember.
There is no way to just erase Apple-ID's on my device either.
What to do? Should i ju give up and start from scratch and delete 2 years of stuf?
Cheers!If you can remember the answers to the security questions when you set up that account - I think that you can reset the password without needing email authentication. You can try it here. Read it and see if it's possible. But if you can't remember the answers to the questions it will not work.
