Welcome to the Apple community mohinderjeet.
If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

How do I remove repeats of public holidays from iCloud calendar
In my iCloud calendar I have several instances of each UK public holiday. I would prefer only one, but how do I remove the extra ones?
Hi again Barry.
I opened the calendar, clicked on the word 'calendars' at the bottom of the page, unchecked 'UK Holidays subscribed' and the event was hidden from the screen.
Unfortunately, so are all UK holidays.... but I can live with that.
As some say, my whole life's a holiday, lol. (Took early retirement last year)
It's still there if I check the line again, pity I just can't remove the event.
Many thanks for your help.
Regards

Made a new iTunes address, and added new payment details, old apps won't update because my old signin pops up! Even tho in settings on on first page it's my new name? How can I remove the old signin name even if it takes all apps paid and free with it!! Don't care if I have to lose all previous apps just don't want to be hassled with updates!
You can't all apps are tied to the apple id that was used to purchase/download it.

I want old Firefox back. My credit union, Verity, will not open with the new version of Firefox I have downloaded.
@glennhaste, the public pages I visited seem identical in IE8 and Fx10, but you may be referring to a part of the site that requires logging in (impossible for non-customers to view).
Since the problem is so recent, can you recall any changes you made in Firefox, or are you aware of any changes your CU made on its site?
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
1. Clear Firefox's Cache
Firefox > Preferences > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Offline Storage : "Clear Now"
2. If needed, delete the site's cookies here
While viewing a page on the site, "right-click" and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies" (''Sorry, I don't know how you right-click on a Mac'')
Then try reloading the page. Does that help? -
Dose anyone know how I can play my old garageband songs on the new version?
What happens when you try to open them?
The GarageBand Help does not say anything about the compatibility with earlier versions.
Try to drag the old project to the GarageBand icon in the Dock or or control-click the project and select "Open with GarageBand" from the pop-up menu. If GarageBAnd can open the project at all, it should convert the project and save a copy in the new format.
If that does not work, and you still have Gaa
rageBand '11 installed, try to open the project first in GarageBand '11 to upgrade it and then in GarageBand 10.0. -
Is there an application or a setting that one can use to either convert the windows media format files to that playable on Apple products i.e. mp3.
Try free OPlayer Lite.

I have an ipod nano synced to an old laptop. Recently upgraded to a new laptop and want to sync the ipod nano to the new laptop. How do I change the sync to the new laptop?
If you have access to your old laptop (and it's still working), ideally, you should transfer your complete iTunes library from your old PC to your new PC. If you can and want to do it that way, please post back.
Otherwise, iTunes syncing is generally in one direction, from iTunes library to iPod. You cannot use iTunes to transfer song files from iPod to computer (except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store). However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer. If you do an Internet search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links. (The CNET article seems to be popular.)
Once the song files are on your computer's drive, you can add them to your new iTunes library. -
Once pictures are moved from your camera to your iPad (using the camera connection kit), how do you get the photos off of the iPad? They do not show up in my photo stream or my iCloud. I am able to see any photo I took on the iPad using the iPad camera (in iTunes, photo stream, or when I open windows explorer and browse the iPad director), however I cannot see any photos transfered from my camera to the iPad. The camera connection kit must have put my photos in a directory I cannot get to and cannot sync.
The links below have instructions for deleting photos.

How do i remove my old Apple Id from iPhone's iCloud setting which does not exist anymore
Purchased new iphone 5s, installed with itunes restoring backup from iphone 4 (which was too old a backup). It restored an old apple id (which i do not use anymore) in the iCloud settings while having my new Apple Id in the Itunes & App Store. I cannot turn off the iCloud setting due to old AppleId popping up - which does not exist.. How do i remove the old Apple Id from icloud setting on the phone.
I cannot erase the phone as it asks for the password for the old Apple Id. And i cannot do the restore again (after i made a recent back up my iphone 4) as itunes asks me to turn off Find my phone.The Apple ID exists. The email address you used to create it may not, but the Apple ID does. Call AppleCare and ask to speak to someone in account security.

Hello farahani hairon nizar,
If your Apple ID was changed from your old account, you may have to change it back to your old account to be able to sign out and then change it back after that is done. Take a look at the article below for more information.

How can I remove the old apple id from my ipod 4rth gen to log in my new apple id ? (my old apple id keeps showing automatic I can't put my prefer new apple id)
- Note that apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.
