Unable to change apple ID location

I was trying to make a purchase recently, but a message telling me I needed to update my billing info came up. For some reason, my country is listed as China (I live in Canada, I've never even been to China). I tried changing my country back, but I am unable to. I get to the "choose your country or region" page, and it says "You need a valid method of payment and billing address for a country in which iTunes is available. Please select a country from the lis below. If a country is not listed, it means iTunes is not available in that country yet."
The problem is, there is no list to choose from. The page is blank, aside from that message. Ive tried restarting my ipad, logging out, but the page is always blank. I'm not even sure how my country was changed from Canada to China in the first place, but now I am unable to change it back. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you are doing it via the iTunes & App Store option in Settings, then once you click on your AppleID, and then click on View AppleID>Country/Region>Change Country or Region, then you also need to click on "Store" where it is showing China right now.
Once you click on "Store" it will then display the list, and you can scroll down to Canada.
That should fix you up.
But you are really going to have to do something about that sleepwalking problem!!!
Cheers,
GB

Unable to change reference point location while using the Transform Functions in Photoshop Elements 6.0.

Which operating system are you using?
In photoshop elements 6, as far as i know, you can only change the Reference Point Location for transforms using the small grid in the left hand corner of the tool options bar with Transform enabled.

Unable to change Bridge CS5.5 Cache location to other than c:\user\

For some reason, I am unable to change the Cache location of Bridge CS5.5 outside of my c:\user\ folder. Other drives in the system are not seen by Bridge. This was not the case before. I used to have it in a different dedicated drive. I reset the preferences, deleted the cache but still they do not help. Please help, as my C: Drive is a SSD with limited space and contains OS only! There is no problem with PS or PR, only Bridge.

If it worked before what did you change?
I know there are some problems in Bridge with users relocating temp file to so place other than C drive. Known bug.
Here is a link with similar situation. http://forums.adobe.com/thread/760369

I have two Apple ID's attached to my iPad and I'm unable to change one

I wanted change my Apple ID username and email address but Apple makes me create a new ID because I can't change my username, so I created a new Apple ID. When I added it to the iPad, I didn't reallize it would make it an additional ID instead of just switch me over, so now I have apps I can't update or remove without signing into the old Apple ID. How do I move the apps over to the new ID? I don't want to keep getting prompted to sign into the old one.
Also, I'm unable to change my email address on Apple's site. I go into Account and edit where it shows my email, but it just asks my security questions and makes me submit my credit card's Security Code (what?!) even though I'm not making a purchase, and there was no option to update the email address! This has really been the most difficult experience I've had trying to change an email address and it's really easy in Android Market.

Apparently this was too long for anybody to read so I'll just leave a nice little two-sentence question.

I changed my Apple ID for an iphone 4s and need to change the iCloud Apple ID/password. I am unable to change the Apple ID under the iCloud account information without the password which no longer exists. How can I update my phone?

I had to change the Apple ID used for my iphone 4s. How do I change the Apple ID for the iCloud information? - the old Apple ID/password no longer exists and this information is requested to make a change. I am unable to change the Apple ID for the iCloud account.

Apple IDs never go away, so it still exists.
But lets be clear. You actually stopped using an Apple ID and created a NEW Apple ID. You didn't just change the email address of your Apple ID? That means that all of the music and apps purchased with the old Apple ID will have to be purchased again.
If you really did create a new Apple ID you will need the password associated with the old one to disable Activation Lock. There is no way around this. As I said, the old one still exists. You can use the standard tools to recover the password at https://appleid.apple.com.

I am unable to change or delete my iCloud ID, it is prompting sign in using an old email address that used to be my Apple ID, others have had this same problem but the answer seems to be to delete the iCloud account but I can't do that.

Welcome to the Apple community.
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.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID, verify the changes, enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone".
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, verify it once again, delete the iCloud account from your device and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.
This article provides more information about Activation Lock.

I recently updated to to iOS 6.1. When I did it asked me to put in my password but my old apple ID came up. I skipped it and the message stated that my facetime and iCloud might not work correctly. I skipped anyway. I have since verified my apple ID online and my facetime seems to be working correctly, However, when I go into settings>iCloud>my apple ID is listed as my old apple ID and I am unable to change it. Any help?

Welcome to the Apple Community..
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

I changed my email address and apple id, but havebeen unable to change my cloud id

I changed my email address and changed my apple id and password, but have been unable to change the icloud id. How?

If you still have access to your old email address, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email account and verify it. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You should then be able to turn off Find My iPhone with your password. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back and change your primary email address and iCloud ID back to the way it was. You will then be able to go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current ID and password to reconnect to your iCloud account.
If you don't have access to your old email address, you will have to contact Apple to get them to reset the password for it so you can disable Find My iPhone and sign into your iCloud account. You will have to prove your identity to them in order to do so. You can either contact iTunes support for assistance with this (https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html), or contact Apple Support (http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/).

HT4623 Changed apple ID through computer. But unable to change in my i phone

I have changed my apple ID through computer. But unable to change my apple ID in my i phone. How to do that?

Depends on what you want to change the ID for. To change the ID...
To change the ID:
For iMessage, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID sign out, sign back in using the other ID.
For FaceTime, do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.
For Purchasing, do this in Settings>iTunes & App Stores.
For iCloud, you'll have to delete the account, create a new account with the other ID, and migrate your data to the new account. Before deleting the account, if you have any photos in photo stream that are not in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else save these to your camera roll or you will lose them. To do this, open the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tap Edit, tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll. Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On iPhone. Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom). Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new account.
