Using the right apple ID and password I can't sign into iMassage? Why
Using the right apple ID and password with wi-fi I can't sign into iMassage. Why?
Did you purchase Apple Care? If you did, you still have access to Apple Support. If not, go to your Apple Store and let them help you get it set up correctly. I'm sure it's something simple we're missing. Good Luck.
Do remember one thing. iMessage on iPad only works with other iOS devices. This means you can only text to people who:
1. Have an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch
2. And they have upgraded to iOS 5 or higher

i can't activate my iPad and I'm sure i am using the correct apple id and password but when i press net it says it cannot be used to unlock this
You can try to figure out which Apple ID/email address and/or password you used to activate it by going to http://iforgot.apple.com
If you can't, you'll need to contact Apple Account Security with your proof of purchase. -
My husband just got an iphone. I've had mine for a while. We use the same email address so I thought we could use the same apple id and password. But now it appears everything on my phone also shows up on his phone and vis versa, even "Notes." Not good. How do I unlink them?

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
I understand you are having difficulties restoring your new iPhone from a previous iCloud backup. The following article provides information to help restore from an iCloud backup.

I recently restored my iphone. When attempting to set it back up it will not accept my password. Yet when i log into the apple store i have no problem logging in using the same apple id and password. How do i get the iphone to recognize my apple id and password?
Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sigh Out of the Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

In the new IOS 7, my IMessage and FaceTime won't let me log in using the correct Apple ID and password. How can I fix this?
Other users have reported same problem with 4G iPod/iOS 6.1.6 and I have not seen a solution. One user reported yesterday or the day before that it just started working again.

I'm using the correct APPLE ID and password for Home Sharing on my computer but my AppleTv is not accepting it? What's up with that???
I have the exact same issue. I also tried resetting my password. I can log in to iTunes on my laptop with the new password, on to my iPhone iTunes, but my Apple TV says it cannot recognize my password. I just did an Apple Tv software update a few days ago.
I am able to log in to Netflix on my Apple TV just fine. I did not have to re-enter my password for that.
Very frustrating. I hope Apple can figure this out soon and post a fix.
Thanks for any advice. Cheers. -
Having already established 2 apple ID's. I want to change the ID listed on my iphone. Placing the new, ID on my phone it will not accept it.
Do you not use the same Apple ID and password as you would use for your IPHONE, EMAIL and ITUNES?Where/how are you trying to replace it and what happens ? You should be able to log out of the currently logged in account for the stores by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store and you should then be able to log in with a different account, and for icloud email via Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars to delete and then add an account.

I have one Apple ID and password, when I sign in iCloud enter Apple ID and password but can not Sign up " This Apple ID is valid but is not an icloud account." Why?
You can not create an iCloud account using a PC, set the account up on a Mac or an iPhone/iPad, then you will be able to sign into it on your PC.

I bought a second ipod touch 4g for my daughter for Christmas amonth ago. I wanted to be sure it was Ok so
I "tested" it by signing up with the same Apple ID and password as MY touch. I assumed it would not be a major
problem to "clear" it so my daughter could set it up with her own account (Apple ID/email and password). I am
unsure HOW to do this. I have read several articles but none seem to be very clear. I do not want to cause any
"damage" to MY touch such as messing up my apps and itunes library. Any advice?Yes, you stop using the same Apple ID under Settings > iCloud.

How do i use the same apple ID and password for my mac mini, my ipod and my ipad?
how do i change my ipod touch apple id and password to be the same as my mac mini and my ipad?
I cannot load updates any of my apps.- Apps are prementently tied to the account that purchased them and you have to sign into that account to update the apps. If you have apps that need updating from more than one account you need to update them one at a time util the remainig apps were purchased from one account.
- Go to Settings>Store to sign out and sign into anohter account -
I setup two iphones on "Find My Iphone App" Using the same apple id on each phone. Now the app finds only the phone I setup first. Do I need to use two different apple ids? If your answer is yes then how do I errase the setup in the second phone and assign a new id?
As TJBUSMC1973 states, and as I said earlier, the Find My iPhone app has nothing to do with your use of Find My iPhone. The app is just used if necessary to locate another iOS device from that particular iOS device. To see if both of your devices are being located in Find My iPhone, log into www.icloud.com and select Find My iPhone. Both of the devices should appear. If they do not, then go into whichever of the devices does not appear and make sure that Find My iPhone is activated. It has to be activated through iCloud, and for both to show on the same map, they both have to have the same iCloud ID.
