Went to Apple Support website & changed my Apple ID and password successfully but when I went to my iPhone 5c to close Find My iPhone I was asked to give the password of the OLD Apple ID, which no longer exists. I went back to Manage My Apple ID and tried to use the new ID. I was told it was recorded as my backup ID. How do I get the ID to go across all apps.--to sync?

You need to do the following to delete the iCloud account from your device:
1.     Go back to Manage your Apple ID and EDIT your Apple ID back to the old email address. This is temporary. Do NOT VERIFY it, do NOT change the password: Apple - My Apple ID
2.     Go to Settings>iCloud on your iPhone, and scroll to the bottom of the screen and Sign Out/Delete the iCloud account . Type in your current password when asked. Follow the prompts to complete the sign out/deletion.
Also, sign out the old Apple ID from Settings>iTunes & App Store, Settings>Messages, Settings>FaceTime
3.     Go back to Manage your Apple ID, sign on with the old Apple ID and current password, and EDIT the Apple ID back to your new Apple ID (you may have to verify it again).
4.     Go back to Settings>iCloud and sign on with the new Apple ID
Sign onto any other apps with the new ID as needed
Cheers,

I cannot play some songs on itunes, I get a prompt for an old email address which not longer exists and I don't know the password. HOw can I get them authorized to my new email address and password?

I cannot play some songs on itunes, I get a prompt for an old email address which no longer exists and I don't remember the password. How can I get these tunes transferred to my new email address and password?

In one of the help pages for managing your Apple ID (http://support.apple.com/kb/HE40), it shows two separate sections, one for Apple ID and one for Primary Email address. When I go to manage my Apple ID, I see only a single section for both. Can the two be 'separated', especially when you face the situation of having to discontinue your email address for some reason?
I also noticed that when navigating to Apple ID Support Communities, it shows my nickname 'dishdy'. How and when did I insert this? In the current sequence for creating an Apple ID I don't see this. In my current profile I don't see this.
In any case, I have freed myself from my previous Apple ID (@artemis.it) on my iPhone.
Thanks for your help.

My iPhone 4 keeps asking me to enter the apple ID for an account which no longer exists-.please help

my iPhone 4 keeps asking me to enter the apple ID for an account which no longer exists….please help

I should have also said that the only reason this is causing me an issue is because I have bought a new phone and I want to sell this one. But I cannot erase all data because I cannot turn off find my phone because it keeps asking for the password for an account which no longer exists…. have tried so many suggestions but nothing is working...

Bought an app one month ago. Now it demands that I repay the subscription fee for it. Tried to report problems on iTunes and just get referred back to Apple Support website. What do I do?

Micromedex Drug Interactions. The app itself is free. A one year subscription costs $9.99. It worked fine for a month. THen an "update" was automatically installed and it now demands a new $9.99 payment. Thank you.

Hi I've tried changing my billing information on settings and iTunes and it's still referring me to the apple support website anybody no why this is happening?

If you mean that you are getting a message to contact iTunes Support then you can do so via this link and ask them why the message is appearing (we are fellow users, we won't know why) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

HT1918 Have multiple Apple ID's, however would like to merge them, also on one of them, unable to verify the email address associated with it since it no longer exists

I have multiple Apple ID"s however one of them I can not verify the email address associated with it since it no longer exists. So I can no use downloads/purchases that I did under that email/Apple ID. Help

It's not currently possible to merge accounts, nor to transfer content from one account to another account. Are you able to access your old accounts via this page and change their email addresses : http://appleid.apple.com ?

I forgot my security question and cannot call Apple Support to change it. What should I do?

I forgot my security question and cannot call Apple Support to change it, because I am outside the country and the only support number for that is an 1-800 number. What should I do?

1. See my User Tip for some help: Some Solutions for Resetting Forgotten Security Questions: Apple Support Communities.
2. Here are two different but direct methods:
    a. Send Apple an email request at: Apple - Support - iTunes Store - Contact Us.
    b. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support
        and service.
3. For other queries about Apple ID see Frequently asked questions about Apple ID.
4. Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions
5. For online assistance use Apple - Support - Express Lane

Apple Support Website SLOW

Hey - off the reservation slighty - has anyone else noticed how SLOW everything is on this Apple Support website? Maybe its the time of day or whatever but it has taken 5 minutes to get to this point! Cant believe it. Even clicking on ASW link off Google takes forever to load!

Yeah guess so - running slightly quicker now.

I have songs in my iTunes that were purchased under an old ID (an email that no longer exists). I forgot the password so when I try to retrieve it, it is sent to the old email which no longer exists, so I can't retrieve it so I can't play/transfer songs

You need to ask Apple to reset your 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.

TS1702 When I try to update an App I am getting my old email address (which no longer works) and when I put in its password it says password or username is wrong. but it does not give me an option to put in my new user name. How can I correct this.

What you are getting is the AppleID (AppleID can be an email adress) used at the time of the purchase of this app. It is an identifiant allowing Apple to link your purchase to your account.
If you want to manage associated email, you can go at https://appleid.apple.com but the AppleID could never be modified.
I do not know if in your case, it is just that you no longer use your old email address or that you actually a 2 AppleID. In any case, you will have to remember the password related to the account used for your purchase. If you don't, just use the link above to try to retreive your password.

Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I change my email my Verizon email to Comcast email. I am continually asked to give my password for my old email which I deleted. I have deleted this Verizon email from every area on my iPad that I'm aware of, And yet he still appearing. How do I solve

I change my email my Verizon email to Comcast email. I am continually asked to give my password for my old email which I deleted. I have deleted this Verizon email from every area on my iPad that I'm aware of, And yet he still appearing. How do I solve this.

What you are describing sounds like you created a new apple id with your new comcast email address. There may be apps on your ipad that are associated with another id that was using your verizon email address. If thats what you're saying then those apps need to be updating by using the apple id that was used when they were downloaded.
If you're talking about something else then maybe a lttle clarification is necessary.
Go to settings/itunes and app stores. make sure the correct apple is shown.
Go to settings/mail, contacts and calendars. Makes sure all of the accounts are current.
Go to settings/icloud, facetime and messages, verify the same.

How can I adjust the brightness of my old Apple 24" LED Display?

How can I adjust the brightness of my old Apple 24" LED Display?

Jacob,
Thank you for the quick response. I opened both the TIFF and the EPS in Illustrator. I used the Eyedropper tool to get the CMYK values of the color of the text part in the TIFF, then I went back to the EPS and selected the text and input the CMYK values in the color tab. I know it's not precise, but it's close enough. Could I have done this better?
Yes, I have access to Photoshop but I haven't tried using it with vector files. I am really new to graphic design and I need all the help I can get. Thank you!

I had to change my password on my email password, but went to my setting under mail accounts and it is grey and I am unable to update it there. Can someone tell what I can do? This on an iPad2.

I did go to settings, restrictions....and there was a list of things...but no "off" or "on" to change.
If the word "Off" is sort of cloudy and the settings are greyed out - that means you do not have restrictions enabled - but just in case - do you use a passcode to lock the iPad?
Exactly what message are you getting and where are you getting the message - what does the "email icon" mean?
