There is an account in my name that isnt mine

Who do you call afterhours when your account has been hacked? Who do you call during business hours....everything online wants a serial number and obviously I dont have one.

Yes, I understood they weren't split in iTunes. However some of the ways of making things "not split" in iTunes don't work when it comes to devices. Thus the long post with lots of possible causes of problems and best workarounds.
I recommend you try the "trailing X" trick regardless of the fact that things seem OK in iTunes, completely remove all trace of the album from the device, then try putting it back again.

Im trying to update the facebook app on my iphone 4s, but when i click update .. an apple ID that doesnt belong to me shows up and asks for the password.

I only have one apple ID and therefore could not be the old / new apple ID problem and phone is completely new ...
Heeelp ><" the bug in the facebook app is very annoying and not being able to update for a month is horrible =[

How to delete an app ? Press and hold any of the apps and after a couple of seconds or so they should start to shake. Then press the 'x' in the left corner to delete the ones that you don't want, and when you've finished deleting press the home button so as to stop the shaking. If you don't get the 'x' on any of the apps that you've downloaded (you can't delete built-in apps) then check that Settings > General > Restrictions > Deleting Apps isn't set 'off'. Then buy and download the app with your own account.
Or how to do something else ?

How do I change the name that shows up for my email account . I don't want to change the email address, just my personal name that shows who the email is from.

Hi There
My apple account was in my partners name , I have now changed it to my name .
The problem is my icloud email still shows up his name at the beginning of my email address. eg Jo Blogg ( [email protected] ) .
When I open up Icloud in browser it shows in the top right my correct name , but when I go into Account settings on Mac in the Mail it shows up my
partners name as the Full Name associated with the account . It doesn't give you the option of changing that name though.
I hope I have explained this properly and someone can help ?
Cheers
Lizzeee

Hey There I didn't need to change it as it shows my correct name in my icloud account. The problem is on my Mac where it still shows my Full name as my partners name.
For eg. if I send an email from "Mail" on mac and I use my icloud account then the name that shows up is my partners name when the email is received. If I send an email from the Icloud Mail box that I log into on my browser then the name that shows up when the email is received is my name which is correct.
When I go into preferences in "Mail" on my Mac to change my name, the name is ghosted out and doesn't allow me to change it ! ? It is here that it still show my partners name ?

Where in gods name is the homesharing button, I see a little cloud that you cannot click on and tells you what account you have but thats is. There's an option for turning on and off homesharing, but no button to access the actual library of the other PC

Where in god’s name is the homesharing button, I see a little cloud that you cannot click on and tells you what account you have but that's it. There's an option for turning on and off homesharing, but no button to access the actual library of the other PC. On either PCs. Both are logged in and both are registered for homesharing. however because apple keeps updating and moving things around for no reason there appears to be no way of accessing the homsharing button in the latest version of itunes. the website refers to " Once set up, all the libraries from your computers you've enabled Home Sharing on will show up in the SHARED area of iTunes:" well I have searched all over in the recent itunes versions and there is no "shared area" to be found.
Please find the attachment of a screen cap of my itunes.
If anyone can help by telling me where it has been moved to or if it even still exists that would be much appreciated.

My old iPad icloud account has an old account name that I no longer subscribe to and will not let me access it. I need to in order to transfer my info to my new iPad. It won't let me change the account name to access the icloud.

I am updating my iPad from first generation to fifth. I can access my app store info with no problem, but I cannot access iCloud. It has an account name that is greyed out and it's an account name of a service we no longer subscribe to. I keep getting a window that says user name or password is wrong, but it only gives me an option to enter a password that doesn't match up with that old account name. I need to transfer to the new ipad, but how do I get cloud access?

You need to reset the password for the "old" account, and then use that to turn off iCloud. Then you will be able to sign in with your new ID.
You can reset your password at iForgot.apple.com.
If you don't know the answers to the security questions, you will need to start there.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
-If you established a rescue email address, there will be a link on the "Passwords & Security" page of id.apple.com. Clicking the link will send the reset to your rescue email address (NOTE: This is not the same address as your Apple ID email)
-If there is no link on the page, then you didn't establish a rescue email address. Contact AppleCare at 800.694.7466 (If you are in the US), and ask for account security. You will need to answer some questions to verify your identity, AND you will need access to a computer to generate a temporary support pin.

ICHAT shows an IM name that is the sender that is not the name on the account. How do I change the name of the sender? Make sense?

On my IChat accountn when I send a message to someone it shows a name, for example.
John Doe (IM):
Hello
John doe is not my name. Mine for the sake of discussion will be
Jim Nabors
Why is John Doe showing up on my sent ICHAT texts when its not associated with my account?

Hi,
Can I check I have Understood this correctly ?
You are saying if You send the IM the Buddy sees the name "John Doe" instead of "Jim Nabors" ?
If this is an AIM login name there can be several reasons for this.
1) AIM allow Display names to be used.
Most people will remember setting this and tend to add Capitals and Spaces to their "Name"
If you Visit AIM Settings you can check your Display Name (if there is one)
Mine look like this when I have signed in
I have it set to display iChat Guru
2) iChat takes the naes in the Buddy List you have and combines that with the Address Book entries (an entry has to list a person's Screen Name)
That causes the iChat Buddy List to display their "Real Name" (or whatever you added as their "First Name, Last Name")
It could be that your Buddy calls you "John Doe" in their Address Book.
The only way you can be sure is to have them take a Screen Shot of the chat and send it to you.
(best to use some phrase or pic so you are certain is going to be you only)
Example Bonjour Chat with me at both ends.
I have the View Menu > Messages set to to display Names and Buddy Pics so the left hand "Buddy" shows my name as in the Address Book on the other computer (even though I use the same pic)
This leads on to what iChat shows you at your end.
In the header it can show your your "Handle" (Screen Name) or your Real Name as it appears in the address Book at the My Card entry.
The Address Book tends to have the name in the My Card of the person that created the Mac User Account.
This can mean that if your are logged on to the Mac as someone else that this will display at your End.
Only your Screen Name is sent to the other end.

Hi! I've just purchased a new iPhone 5s but whenever I text people with iPhones it's always sent from my iCloud account. This means that my email show instead of my name/number which is really frustrating! Does anyone know how to stop this?

Go into Settings>Messages>Send and Receive> Is your phone number checked there? If you do not want your email used, then tap on them and remove the checkmark. If there is no checkmark by your phone number, then turn iMessage off, perform a reset on the phone, hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. Turn iMessage on. When it activates, check your settings again under Send and Receive and make sure the number is checked and the emails are not.

How to change my name that displays at beginning of an email? Do I need to change my email account name?

My wife and I use the same email. I need to change the name that displays at the beginning of an email to a joint name rather than just my name. We use AOL for our email. Do I need to change the name on the AOL email account to effect this change? or is there a way to effect this change in Firefox? Thanks for help.

The change must be made in the AOL settings. See the following page for directions.

How do I get messages to go back to an AIM account? It's only seeing the iPad's Facetime email address and not seeing the old AIM account name that is on my desktop. I am using my iMac using iChat to talk to a newer iMac that doesn't have iChat.

How do I get messages to go back to an AIM account? It's only seeing the iPad's Facetime email address and not seeing the old AIM account name that is on my desktop. I am using my iMac using iChat to talk to a newer iMac that doesn't have iChat. We had this working using Messages and Facetime (on the new machine) talking to my existing iChat account. One day last week, when Facetime rang, my kids answered on the iPad. Dang! Now it's all fouled up! The new iMac won't see my AIM account name and shows that I'm offline, because the iPad is off. We were able to call using "most recent call" in Facetime, but now I can't go and control that new iMac remotely to help with some email concerns the user is having. I'm trying to not personalize this too much, but it's grandkids talking to Grandma and Mom and Dad trying to solve new machine hiccups. Normally, I could just go in via iChat and control the other machine and troubleshoot, but I can't do it with Facetime only. My buddy list doesn't see the other computer even though we are connected on Facetime right now. My name is not highlighted for the other computer. What could have gone so wrong?
Any help would be appreciated.

Any ideas cos its frustrating that I can't access something I paid for!

Sign out of the account you do not wish to use, sign into the one that you do wish to use.

I ordered Illustrator for another user. I received an invitation that was accepted, logged in and tried to change the account to the name and email of the person it was ordered for. How can I get this changed and the invitation sent to the right person?

Is there a max number of names that can be put into Contacts

is there a max number of names that can be put into Contacts and still have the app work well?

Yes, there is. It's how many contacts your hard drive can take. So you can fill up the entire computer with nothing but contacts until your HDD/Flash has no space left. So if you have 250GB, it'd be less than if you had 500GB and you'd have more on 750GB.

There is an account in my name that isnt mine
