If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud - Apple Support

I changed my apple id and password online, but my iphone still has the old id and now it won't accept either the new or old password

To change the iCloud ID on your device you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID.
If you are changing to a different iCloud account and need to migrate your data to this new account, when you are prompted about what to do with the iCloud data be sure to select Keep On My iPad. Then when you sign into the new account, when prompted choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new account.

My iphone 4s only works when plugged in, experiences random crashes, and the wifi is grayed out?

First post here. I'm experiencing some pretty complicated issues with my iphone 4s of several years, which began yesterday at random. I'm sorry for the length, but if someone could read through all of this and help me out, I would be so grateful.
I started experiencing some complex issues with my iphone yesterday, seemingly at random. I was taking a phone call, and all of a sudden, my phone goes dark. The battery was between 50%-80% at the time. I immediately plugged it in, and the apple logo appeared and began to power on. When it came back on however, I immediately noticed some changes. For starters, the battery leapt to 100%. The top corner of my phone where the carrier and bars should be says "searching..." (this never goes away). When I go into settings, the wifi is grayed out and says "no wifi."
That's not the worst of it though. As of last night, the number of times my phone crashes has gotten progressively worse. Now, even when I plug my iphone in to a wall charger, it stays on for maybe 1-4 minutes before it crashes completely. After this, it sometimes restarts itself. Before the shut-down, there are usually some weird bars or colors that flash across the screen (it's always different). I'm running on ios5 (I just really like the layout so much more, so I never bothered updating).
I don't think I did anything out of the ordinary to my phone. I walked in the rain for a short while when it was in my back pocket, but I've done this many times before and I don't see how that could create massive water damage. Also, it worked perfectly fine for a few hours after I got home. Quite literally, this just happened out of the blue. No warning, no signals, nothing. So far, I've tried...
- turning it on and off (duh)
- doing a hard reboot by holding down the middle and top buttons, several times
- resetting the network settings
- turning off data roaming and toggling airplane mode on and off
I even attempted the freezer trick. I didn't put the phone in the actual freezer because I was worried about condensation, but I did set it down on an icepack. This seemed to keep it alive a little bit longer before crashing, but only marginally so. My original plan was to plug my phone into my computer and download all my pictures and whatnot before attempting a complete data wipe and factory reset, but this also seems impossible. When I plug the phone into my laptop, the little apple logo comes and goes, but it simply never powers on fully. And even if it did, I doubt it would stay on long enough for me to complete a download without things crashing.
I'm totally lost here. Is my phone wrecked? I'm sensitive about my privacy, so I'm not crazy about the idea of taking my phone to the apple store and having them make some sort of copy of my data. I'm also not crazy about uploading all of my phones data to iTunes or the cloud or something like that. In addition to this, I don't know how I would salvage my in-app data. That's also something I'm worried about. I can't attempt to update my ios without wifi or the ability to plug my phone into a computer. All of this would be a lot easier if I could keep my iphone on longer than 2 minutes.
I've had this phone for years. I really don't want to just let it die at random and never even know why. I just feel like this hit me out of nowhere. Any suggestions about what I could do? I'm willing to try everything. I'm planning on calling apple, but I was thinking of asking online first.
BONUS: if anyone could answer these extra questions (you don't have to), that would be awesome! When you do a complete data wipe and restore your iphone to factory settings, where does all of your data go? Is it actually *gone* for good? I'm not just talking about photos, but also internet history, in-app data, and youtube history from the youtube app. Does it disappear completely? Or does it get stored somewhere. Also, is there anyway to downgrade a new iphone to an earlier ios without jail breaking it? I've pretty much lost hope with this phone, but if I get a new one, I just wish there was some way to keep using the old ios I'm used to.
Thanks so much to anyone who can answer these questions.

I have tried everything
If that is the case, by definition there is nothing left you can do...
Did you try connecting to another computer? Did this computer ever detect the phone? Does the USB system on your computer work normally with other devices? What is your computer OS version? iTunes version??

Hmm. The problem still may be the RAM - Apple buys the RAM it puts in its machines from third-party vendors (usually Hynix) so it could be a RAM problem.
There are a couple of things that you can do yourself before taking your machine into an Apple Store or an AASP... download and run an application named Rember that will run a RAM test for you - let it run for a couple of hours or even overnight. If it turns out that your RAM is faulty, Rember will let you know. If it is faulty, then you have a couple of options - replace the RAM yourself or (particularly if you're under warranty still) take the machine to an Apple Store or AASP and have them replace the RAM.
If Rember finds no fault with the RAM, then you'll need to take it into an Apple Store/AASP and get a free diagnosis on the machine. Three beeps do usually indicate faulty RAM, but if it tests good with Rember you likely have another problem - it could be something as simple as the RAM, somehow, not seated correctly or signs of another hardware problem.
Run Rember first... call back with results.
Good luck,
Clinton

Not ure what this has to do with iPhoto. Perhaps you'd be better off asking on the forum for your MacBookPro.

TS1389 I tried all these steps and iTunes still won't let me play songs I paid for... Every time I authorize, it repeats that it's already authorized, but won't play because it's not authorized ... Catch 22

Delete and redownload them if doing so is free in your country.

Why is the email option grayed out from iphoto sharing

I am running iPhoto 9.5.1 on Mavericks. When I select a photo and try to share it the share menu has email and all the social meida options grayed out. Checking accounts in iPhoto my email accounts are there. I tried deleting and reinserting the one I want to use and restarting iPhoto, but it is still grayed out.

You need to update yoru profile - it says OS X 10.6.8
In the iPhoto preferences select an email client (I personally prefer Mail) and if you are using iphoto enter your email information in teh accounts tab (If you use Mail it will use yuro existing sset up)
Same for social media - enter your account information in the accounts tab

TS2570 I have tried all these steps and still the Gray Screen appears. What shall I do now?

I still have the appearance of the gray screen after preforming all the solutions provided by apple support.
What shall I do now?

Of course it would help to know what you have tried but without that information here goes:
Install or Reinstall Lion from Scratch
If possible backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive.
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Erase the hard drive:
Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Install button.
Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.

Hello chelle77549,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iOS: Wi-Fi settings grayed out or dim
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1559
Verify that airplane mode is off by tapping Settings > Airplane Mode.
Reset the network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Note: This will reset all network settings, including Bluetooth pairing records, Wi-Fi passwords, VPN, and APN settings.
Ensure that your device is using the latest software. To do so, connect your device to your computer and check for updates in iTunes.
If your issue is still unresolved, perform a software restore in iTunes.
Best of luck,
Mario
