Help! I gave my daughter an iPod Touch, and she wanted my music on her iPod, so I set it up under my iTunes account. Now she FaceTimes and texts under my name, I guess, and my iPhone gets all her texts. I find this inappropriate and do not want anyone to think that I am the one sending these messages out! Can she have my music from iTunes on her iPod and have her own identity while FaceTiming and using whatever texting thing she uses?
She does not need another Apple ID. She does need a separate email address. For how to setup FT and Messages see:

What i need the answer to is how to get an apple i.d.for my daughter without an email address or anything else, as she is only 9 and does not need, nor can she legally have, an i tunes account. I have got face time working but have done it with my other email address and have gone round so many houses to achieve it the passwords etc are a mystery now. is there a place where i can view what is linked to what, and generally do some house keeping and tidy up the mess i have created attempting to enable the features of her i pod touch? I am trying to keep my child from the full force of the internet and therefore have found the easiest course of action to leave everything switched off and am starting to wish i had bought a shuffle instead, She is right to question why she has the device when she can not use it to it's capacity. But safely. And i am astonished that the help is so difficult to obtain quickly and easily, surely other responsible parents have had to do the same thing?
MacMost Now 653: Setting Up Multiple iOS Devices For Messages and FaceTime
If the iPhone has iOS 6, you can only uncheck your phone number on the iPod that is in Settings>Messages>Send And Receive. To delete yo have to create a new iTunes account not associated with the phone.
What do yo mean by "is there a place where i can view what is linked to what, "? -
My daughter has set a password on her i pod touch and she cant remember what she set it as can someone help me is there a way i can reset it??
The ONLY way to reset this is by restoring the iPod Touch with iTunes, which can be done from the iPod Touch backup. The Passcode Lock is not included with the backup.
If there were another easier way to do so, there wouldn't be any point in having the Passcode Lock to begin with. -

iOS: Troubleshooting FaceTime and iMessage activation
FaceTime, Game Center, Messages: Troubleshooting sign in issues -
I've tried everything to set up my iMessage and FaceTime but nothing is working
Error Message includes:
"An Error Occured During Activation. Try again."
"Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again.",
I have tried the following:
I resetted my phone. Still doesn't work.
My iCloud works. So there's no problem with my apple ID.
My sms and text features work. It's green and not blue.
I have iOS 7.0.4 and I have been informed my software is up to date.
I recently went into apple to get my phone replaced set up my icloud from previous phone absolutely fine the only thing that I can't set up is the iMessage and FaceTime I've tried everythingsame thing is happening to me. each time i tried activating imessage it would display the error message. i contacted apple support and IMed them. One thing that they said was to got to settigns and "reset all settings". no data from your phone should be lost (I'm quite sure it even tells you this when you press the button). It will then say "waiting for activation" and then they said give it 24 hours, leaving the phone on, to see if it works. since i reset it it now says "waiting for activation" but has not yet activated.
the support team were really useful so i would recommend contacting them -
i cant download apps throgh wifi on my iphone however when i connect to cellular data it starts downloading. then what is wrong over wifi , i tried reset network setting but i didnt help
Definitely sounds like an issue with your Wi-Fi network. Do any other devices on the network have similar issues? Is it an issue only with downloading apps? You can check by trying to load a website in Safari.
I would try turning your Wi-Fi router off for 1 minute, and back on again.
After doing that, disconnect and re-join the Wi-Fi network on your iPhone and try downloading an app again. -
I've problem with Game Center . I can't sign in Game Center on my iPad . I tap on the Game Center icon but the page is blank. I tried go to setting, my Apple ID appear but the page keep on loading and nothing pop up. How to resolve this issue?
Hi, bamboo64.
Try closing all open applications in multitasking and power cycling the device. Once this is done test the results. If the issue persists, I have included a couple troubleshooting articles that I would recommend going through.

Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.

I downloaded the iCloud control panel on my PC but can't sign in - message says "This apple ID is valid but not an iCloud account. I've tried the account set up several times but it keeps just spinning me in circles, asking me to sign in and then I get the same message again. This is getting frustrating and I really don't seem to be able to get help. I can't contact customer support because I have a PC and there is a serial number of an apple device required.Can anyone help please?
You can't setup (create) an iCloud account using a PC. You must use an Apple device, a Mac or an iPhone etc. Once you have created an account you can sign in from your PC.

Ipad won't start; trying to restore thru itunes, but get the message - can't restore because ipad is not set up. It was set up and has been in use for about a year. What do I do now?
I Have seen people report this issue when they try to sync their devices but in never seen it when trying to restore an unresponsive iPad. I would sguggest trying recovery mode now.

This procedure will totally erase the iPad so I hope that you have a backup that you can restore from....assuming that it works, that is. -
i've jail break Iphone 3GS. i tried to restore setting (erasing all data and media) without connecting to computer/itunes. When it starts it freezes by showing apple logo only. what is the solution. please help me out. Here i don't have iphone service center too.
Although not illegal, Apple discourages a user from modifying the iPhone OS in any manner, including "jailbreaking". Apple feels so strongly about this that discussing methods to assist a user trying to either jailbreak or "unjailbreak" an iPhone are prohibited.

Iphone stopped syncing photos with Face Book. I've tried all the set up directions but none work, or don't follow what is said they will follow (no directions pop up when I select syned from iphone in pictures)
Thanks! I called Apple, and we did a software update. While the phone now will light up and work for about 30 seconds before going dark again, the representative said I would probably get a replacement phone if I took it in. You are right - probably a hardware failure!

i tried using the setting icon to reset the prints and icon to a bigger size, thereafter the setting icon lost color to gray and stopped responding.? most of the pop up boxes will also not respond why?
Thanks Winston, restarting my router worked for me too. Seems that somehow the DCHP (maybe due to the Mountain Lion upgrade?) had assigned the same IP address to both the AppleTV and my iMac. The AppleTV stopped appearing as an AirPlay device for my iPhone and Mac, but still the AppleTV had Internet access.
Restarting the router reassigned IPs and without fanfare, the AppleTV is now available to AirPlay. -
whether i use a DL DVD or just a DVD R, it tells me there was an error during multiplexing. I have tried changing every setting, best performance, professional quality, etc. and still get the same error message every time i try to burn to dvd.
Welcome to the forums.
Looks like that error message does refer to encoding (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1645) but a problem could be that your video has to be reloaded into iDVD if you started the encoding process and then switched settings. You could start a new iDVD project, or try deleting encoded assets.
Let's start from the beginning -- what length of video are you trying to fit on the DVD? (this will indicate what encoding options you have). Double layer DVDs can be finicky and are used for video more than 2 hrs long.
Use good quality media -- Verbatim is often recommended around here, and I've used Sony DVD-R with good results.
