Upgraded iPhone 5c to 7.1; no longer have access to free iWork in App Store
Hello!
I recently activated a new 32 Gb iPhone 5c (last Saturday to be exact); a couple of days ago, I launched the App Store for the first time, and was shown a dialog which listed the free programs I could download onto my phone. Because I wasn't near my home Wi-Fi, I selected 'Not Now', which dismissed the dialog; however, I did notice that the iWork programs that were listed (Pages, Keynote, Numbers, etc.) were free.
Since that time, I've updated my iPhone to iOS 7.1; now, when I go back to the App Store to download the iWork apps, I notice that they all cost something (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote costs 9.99 each, iPhoto and IMovie cost 4.99, GarageBand is free).
My question: did I lose eligibility for free iWork because I upgraded iOS? Or am I missing something (to get to the Apple Apps, I selected "New to the Apple Store?", then "Apps by Apple")?
Thanks!
Thought it had worked but soon found out it had not.
after further days of trying finally, solved it for me Yesterday.
turned off notifications when locked, and bingo, wow.
i have not turned off iCloud but location services are also off.
best thing to do I found was keep checking your usage, settings, general, usage, and flip down to bottom, if the standby and usage are similar there is a problem, if there is a big difference then all is ok. Just keep turning things off and on until the difference is very apparent.
something on my phone was keeping the phone alive even when turned off, and I think this was the phone repeatedly trying to update continually.
to me this is definitely down to the iOS, my wife has exactly same phone and iOS but hers doesn't have any problem and the battery lasts for days.
the guy at the Genius Bar told me to restore the phone via iTunes, not iCloud. This is because iCloud remembers the exact info from your phone and simply reinstates it when you restore, and this includes the iOS too.
when I get home from holidays that's what I'll do, or wait for iOS 8 in few weeks. But I'm so pleased I finally made it work, I was beginning to think ditch the phone and buy Samsung.
anyway anyone out there please try my final solution and let me know if it works for you?

Since the upgrade to ios 7, i no longer have access to most of my apps
Most apps have disappeared, some are still on my screen, but grey and unusable. I've tried to delete them, but that didn't work. I've tried removing them from my iTunes on my mac, but that didn't work either. I tried reinstalling them, but that didn't work. Some of these apps are payed for and I used them frequently, so you can say I'm not amused.
Can anyone PLEASE help?!

I have an Icloud account set up on my Iphone which is outdated - I no longer have access to the password or email address. I want to delete this and replace with my new and current Icould but it seems not to want to let me.
I have tried to delete the Icloud account but I need the password to do this (because Find My Iphone is switched to On).
I have tried to access the support site to change my password but it will not accept my date of birth as personal ID so blocks me there. I cannot reset the password by email as I no longer have access to the email address.
Is there a way to change the Icloud account on an iphone without needing a password to delete the old one?
Thankshttps://iforgot.apple.com/

I recently re installed itunes (due to pc crashing). When I connect my iphone to sync it is telling me my Iphone is already synced to another library. I no longer have access to that library. How do I delete that old library to enable me to sync to my new library?
You don't need to delete the old library, but it will take a little effort to transfer the allegiance of the device to your new one.
You should be able to:
Backup the device to the new installation
Transfer your purchases into a newly authorized library
Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer
Restore the device from the backup
This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in your apps.
May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.
When you get it all fixed, make a backup!

I am trying to delete my icloud account from my iphone as i no longer have access to this email and when i try to challenge the security question to access the account apparently i dont know my own date of birth. I cant delete the account as i dont remeber the passwrod and i have a new icloud account that i would like to link the phone to. Any help would be appreciated
thanksIf the old ID (iCloud account) is yours, and if it is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished 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 to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.
This will not work if your current ID is an entirely new ID and is not a newer version of the old ID. -
I had to trade in my iPhone for an android, I did not unencrypted the back up on iTunes, i no longer have access to the phone, is there a way to get to my data?
The difficulty is you have to unencrypt during the restore process, which you cannot do with an Android device.

I changed my Apple ID on iTunes and on the iPhone 4. When I try to "Update All" the old Apple ID shows up (I no longer have access to that email address). How do I update those apps?
Apps are DRM protected and tied to the account used to originally obtain them. They cannot be transferred to another iTunes account nor updated using another iTunes account. Only the account used to obtain them can be used to update them. You can contact iTunes support, explain the situation & ask that they add these apps to the download queue of your new account:

I upgraded my MacBook Pro to 10.7.5 and no longer have access to Apple Works. How can I get it back?
Find an alternative, or return to Snow Leopard, either directly or by running Mac OS X 10.6 Server inside a product such as VirtualBox, Parallels Desktop, or VMware Fusion.

How do I change an iCloud account using an old email address I no long have access too?
Welcome to the Apple community.
If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple IDand that ID is a previous version of your current ID, not an entirely different one.
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.

My iphone backup is stored on a computer I no longer have access to. Is there another way I can access this backup without that particular computer?
You don't have iCloud set up? There would be a backup there if you enabled it.

Help!
I'm attempting to turn the Find My Phone off in my iPhones iCloud settings. the problem is that it is requesting that I log into an Apple ID account I no longer have access to from a former employer. When I try to access the Apple ID account to learn the account password it sends a letter to the email listed on that account - one that I cannot access.
What should I do?

I want to sign out of current apple id and into another one that I own but I no longer have access to my current email address so I cannot log out (It is with an internet provider who I have just unsubscribed with) This is on an iPhone 5S, on iOS 8.1.
That email address is still a valid Apple ID. If you do not remember the passcode, sign onto Manage your Apple ID (Apple - My Apple ID) with that email address, and then click on Reset Password. You will be asked to answer your Security Questions in order to reset the password. If you do not remember the answers to your Security Questions, contact Apple Support to reset them for you:
