When asked to type in my Apple ID it comes under another persons email address and not mine.  this happened after I updated my iphone on my Mac computer  Why is it using another persons email address and I cannot get it off of there

When asked to type in my Apple ID it uses a email address that is not mine but is one of my contacts, I cannot access itunes as this is not my email address, this happened after I updated my phone on my Mac computer.  How do I get this email address off so I can use my Apple ID ?

settings->itunes & app stores->click on the appleID which is not your and log out

  • TS1559 Wi-Fi on my iphone4s is grayed out and I think this happened after the update 7.0.4. I went to apple store and they turned me down that there is no support in the 2nd year. Extremely disappointed and no way except to pay and get replacement. Pls ad

    Wi-Fi on my iphone4s is grayed out and I think this happened after the update 7.0.4. I tried all possible solutions through apple online support and then went to apple store as a last resort and they turned me down that there is no support in the 2nd year. Only option is to pay 160 pounds and get replacement. When I argued further, they said that if I had bought the iphone directly with them, they would replace me without any cost. This is even more frustrating.
    THIS IS TOTALLY UNFAIR as its not my fault. If the release of faulty 7.0.4 software is timed in my 2nd year of contract and since I didnt buy the iphone directly from Apple, how is it fair to ask me to pay for replacement. Its not my fault after all.

    Because you are outside the one year hard ware warrenty, Apple covers for the first year on their dime, if you had a two year contract why not make sure you have a two year insurance on your phone?
    Either way as I can see/assume you are from europe you can look at your consumer laws to see if you qualify for anything there, beyond that it isn't the software that broke the device, it's a hardware failure because thousands upon thousands are happy and content with iOS 7.0.4

  • HT4436 Hey I received an email saying someone logged onto my iMessage and FaceTime. Does that happen after you update the iphone? I just downloaded the new upgrade.

    I spoke too soon. I tried Facetime again last night and had the same problems. Another factory reset did not work. I think it may be time to just call Apple support.

  • I have an ipod nano 7th generation and can not get it recognised by my Windows 8.1 laptop (it appears briefly on My computer, then disappears). This happened after I updated iTunes to the latest version. Does that have something to do with it?

    Hello there, kiwilucea.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers up some in-depth steps for troubleshooting your issue:
    iPod not recognized in My Computer and in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1369
    Keep in mind if you get to Step 12 Reinstall iTunes, those steps need to be followed exactly as outlined for the reinstall to be effective.

  • My ipod nano 7g went off and will not start, this happened after I connect to my computer, my ipod will restart and I no longer turn on. I do?

    please help me my ipod nano 7g went off and will not start, this happened after I connect to my computer, my ipod will restart and I no longer turn on. what I do?

    Hey saintbless,
    Thanks for the question. The following article outlines troubleshooting information for iPod nano. While it mostly refers to the 6th generation, most steps apply for your model as well:
    iPod nano (6th generation): Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3474
    Will not turn on or screen remains dark
    - Connect iPod to power for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has enough charge to allow iPod to turn on.
    - If iPod does not turn on after ten minutes, try resetting the device while it is still connected to power. Reset the iPod by holding down the Sleep/Wake button and the Volume Down button for at least eight seconds or until you see the Apple logo appear.
    - If the Apple logo appears on the display, connect iPod to a computer and verify that it appears in iTunes and can play music. If iPod appears in iTunes and can play music, no further troubleshooting is needed.
    - If the screen remains dark and will not turn on, then your iPod may need service.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

    Most likely a hardware failure, & if so, you won't be able to restore/activte your phone. If you've tried at least two times, & are still getting this error, make an appointment at any Apple store, or call AppleCare.

    Most of your purchases content can be downloaded again via the Purchased tabs in each of the store. I realize that this will be a problem for the iTunes Store on the iPad, but that has nothing to do with apps, since apps are in the App Store.
    If you backed up synced with iTunes before you restored the iPad, your content should be in iTunes on your Mac and you should be able to sync it back again.

  • Firefox will not open - it says it has a copy open already - and it does not. This happened after I tried to update to new firefox.

    I attempted to upload the new version of Firefox. When I did this - I could not open Firefox at all - a box pops up telling me to '''Close Firefox - a copy of firefox is already open - Only one copy of Firefox can be open at a time.''
    I tried to remove Firefox completely form the computer and reinstall - and I get the same message.

  • The apple id that comes up on my i phone is not mine and i do not have the password for it how can i change it back to mine ?

    How do i change apple id without password . I have tried to change it but the email gets sent to a generic address. Can anyone please help ?
    Thank you !
    <Email Edited by Host>

    Apps and their updates are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them originally, regardless of whether or not you are still using this ID for iTunes.  If these apps were purchased with your former husband's ID you won't be able to update them without providing the password for this ID.  You will have to delete them from your phone and your iTunes library and re-purchase them using your current ID in order to stop this.

  • I bought the second season of American Guns and it downloaded some episodes and not others this happened to the last season of American Chopper also for me.

    I purchased the second season of American Guns and the latest American Chopper and some episodes downloaded and some didn't and I go to purchase it again and it tells me already purchased but when I hit download it tells me to pay again then when I do it says already purchased???

    For those interested, the solution (at least in my case) is pretty simple:
    --Contact Apple Support and explain.
    --Have first-level support misinterpret your request.
    --Re-explain and ask for resolution.
    --Have the purchased items added to your download queue and then hit Check For Purchases.
    --Sit back and enjoy.
    Based on the WWDC announcements on 08-Jun, going forward, the solution will apparently be:
    --Download it from iCloud.
    Roaminggnome, you are simply wrong.  Demonstrably, purchases on iTunes are not one and only copy--even more so now with the entire concept of iCloud, but even beforehand you could download apps many times if you had bought them and removed them from your iOS device.  You'd think with all those discussion points, you'd troll less and actually give thought to responses more, but sometimes I say crazy things.

  • My iPhone 3gs does not hold signal and just says "searching" this happened after I updated to 5.1.1. What can I do to fix it.

    Ever since i updated to 5.1.1 my phone just says "searching". I live in a highly populated area with many at&t towers, and this has made me pretty much despise apple, concidering that i've been without a phone for the past week. What do I do to fix it? If it is a software issue.

  • My entire bookmark bar is GONE and I cant even add new ones, this happened after I updated Firefox. Can I unupdate? Or is there a way to get the bookmarking function back?

    I just updated to 3.6 and I cant go back a page either. It's like it cant remember ANYTHING! I really need help! I have a mac o sx. The space where the bookmarks used to be is still there but it's blank.

    This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
