TS2446 I have an itunes account that has lost it's association with my email address, password or birthdate doesn't work. How do I fix this?
My email address is no longer associated with my itunes account/MacID. I think this happened when I created an account for my new iphone and used the same email address. Now I've forgotten my password and can't seem to reset it. When I tell it to send me a new password via email it never shows up. When I try to do it by answering questions it doesn't accept my answers.
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

I have an old ID that has $ but I can't remember the email or password. How do I get the $ transferred to another account?
You can't transfer a balance (nor its purchases) to another account. Do you have any of its purchases on your computer's iTunes library ? If you do then selecting it and doing 'get-info' (control-I) should tell you the account id on the Summary tab on the popup.
You can also see if you can find the id and get the password reset via this page : http://iforgot.apple.com -

After I installed firefox four a pop up dialog box started showing imediatley and clicking OK made it dissappear and return a split second later, over and over again. I typed in my eamil address to contact firefox about it in the dialog box for that but clicking the send button didn't send the message. The three posts about it where incomplete so I could not do those. 90 people have reported this problem. Please advise. Thanks.

i put money to my itunes account. and now when i try and buy a song it keeps saying that it has to charge my card. why wont it let me use the giftcard money? how can i fix this?
If you still have your old card listed on your account then try selecting the 'none' option and remove it and then try entering the card's details from scratch. If that doesn't work then what is the full error message that you are getting, and the card is registered to the same name and address (including format and spacing) that you have on your iTunes account ?

I have 2 iphones, 1 personal and 1 business. I thought I was supposed to have 2 separate itunes accounts. I now have a work ipad and want to only have 1 itunes account that I can use for all 3 devices. How do I cancel 1 account or just combine the 2?
I want to be able to transfer my apps from my original itunes account that I have on my personal iphone 3 and work ipad 3 to my work iphone 4S ,as well as purchase more more apps for the work iphone with the original itunes account. Plus I need to sync all 3 of them with my work tower computer. I really appreciate you're trying to help me out.

I can't figure out how to log off of my daughter's iTunes account that has been loaded to my PC. When I want to sync my iPhone, I get her data, not mine.
Hi, Abril_Perez17.
This may be related to a new feature embedded in iOS7 that shows all purchased music by default. Go to Settings > Music, then turn off Show All Music. See if the issue ceases once the feature has been disabled. This information is located on page 63 of the user guide below.

I have 2 itunes accounts that I want to put on one iCloud, but can't get them to sync. What can I do that the instructions aren't telling me?
You don't mention anything about the music files on your computer that were used to copy into iTunes. If you have moved those files to a different location on you PC you will get that error message from iTunes. This is because iTunes will look for the music files in the original location that they came from on your PC when they were copied. If this is the case you have to tell iTunes to look in the new location for the music files or move the music files back to the original location.

I have a iTunes card that has $25 on it.I want to purchase something that cost $19.I have not bought anything with this card yet,but it says on my credit that I have bought something and that I have $3 left.I have already went back to the store and asked to return it but they said to get on this website first.Can you help me?
beckyj3,
the last version of Mac OS X which supported running PowerPC apps on Intel Macs was Mac OS X 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard). If you’d like to play this PowerPC game on your Intel MacBook Pro, then you’ll need to install Snow Leopard on it and boot into Snow Leopard. (Note that the last MacBook Pro which natively supported Snow Leopard was the Early 2011 model.)
The game was almost certainly published before Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) was released, so back then, all versions of “Mac OS X 10.3 or higher” would have supported running that PowerPC game. -

I HAVE AN ICLOUD ACCOUNT THAT I NEED TO DELETE, BUT I'VE FORGOTTEN THE PASSWORD AND/OR THE SECURITY QUESTIONS. SO, I CAN'T RESET IT BY EMAIL BECAUSE THE ADDRESS I USED IS NO LONGER ACTIVE.
You need to ask Apple to reset its security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.

My iMessage will not register that I have a phone number attached to the account on my mac. It only shows the email addresses. My iPhone and iPad work perfectly.
Hi Aurion23,
If you intend to keep using iCloud on your iPad, your best course of action would be to update your Apple ID/iCloud information so that you have a known password and it is associated with an active email address. You may find the following articles helpful:
