When I set up my iMac I used one of two iTunes accounts I have, I now need to change it to the other one......any ideas?! Thanks in advance

Hi Pompey Woody,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you need to use a different Apple ID (iTunes Store account) with iTunes on your Mac, you can sign out and then back in with the other account:
Open iTunes. ...select Store > Sign Out, then select Store > Sign In and enter your current Apple ID.
These steps are found in this article:

Call Apple sales support. Something apparently went wrong in your transaction. In the USA the number is 1-800-676-2775.
Best of luck.

I've been using my mom's iTunes account for years but now I want to switch to another account. How can I do this without losing all of my pictures, music, and apps?

Do a reset of everything on your ipod. Then reconnect it and it should work.

Hi I have an HP printer. I use an APP called print central from APP Store. Used this for the last 2 years on 2 IPhones & 3 iPads with no problems. Cheers Brian

I have two very similar iMacs but one performs better than the other. Any ideas?

I have the latest Premier CC on two systems, my 27" i7 iMac w/16 GB RAM at home, and a 27" Retina i5 iMac w/32GB RAM at work. Both are running Yosemite but I don't quite get the performance on my home system as at work. Both are using Mercury openGL. The graphics cards look comparable, far as I can tell -- both have 2GB vram. So the only thing left I can think of is the RAM but before I go spend that money and kill myself if it doesn't make any difference, anybody have any thoughts?

Hi Scott, thanks for the quick reply. I chatted with an Adobe support person who said the extra RAM would only make a difference in "Mercury playback software only" mode. (Of course, this is the same support person who said, unequivocally that "...rendering is always necessary, sir" just after I'd told him that I never have to render on my office system, just my home system, so I'm skeptical he really knew what he was talking about...thus, I'm here in the forum now!)
ANYWAY...sorry to be so lame, but could you clarify how to set cache disk settings? I found memory allocation prefs -- it was set for 12 GB for Premiere, 4 for everything else. I changed it to 13 premiere/3 everything else -- which is all it would allow me to do -- but it doesn't seem to have made a difference. Also, it behaves the same way even if I'm running no other apps at all so not sure the background tasks diagnosis is a factor, but I could absolutely be confused about some key thing you're talking about!

I'm trying to share a new Canon printer wirelessly between my HP laptop and my iMac. I've successfully printed from both computers, but, I get errors trying to print on one after I've printed on the other. Any ideas on how to get them to both to print?

I installed a new Canon printer several months ago that I was told by the salesman could be shared between my iMAC and HP laptop. I have successfully used the printer wirelessly from both computers, however, it gets hung up switching between the two and I'm not sure what to do to get it to be consistent. Any ideas?

You didn't state how it's connected to each computer, if it's connected through your router then it should work. If it doesn't then you need to contact Canon and ask for assistance.

HT5621 I have several apple devices, three are mine and the other ones belong to my little children. I use the same ID and password for all the devices. Is this a good idea? Do I need to change the apples ID?

I use the same apple ID for all my devices, 2 iphones, 2 itouch, 1 macbook pro, 2 ipads. Becuse I have small children, can I change that and still, have control, and don´t need to buy the same things serveral times.

It is something I would avoid if possible. I would want to educate my children to think possessively and therefore of security. Yes, I know you are all family but at the end of the day you wouldn't want your children to be blaming each other for any problems that arise. Well, that's how I see it, for what it is worth.

I had music on my phone but when I connected it to my iMac I lost all my music, besides the one that I purchased, and now I can't get back the other one's that weren't purchased. What do I do?

Please tell me I can get my music back. Or if I need to go to the apple store and ask?

If by other music you mean CDs and the like, those were only on your computer to which you last synced the phone. If they weren't there and yu got them onto the phone by manually syncing to another computer you will have to go back to that computer to get hte music again. Apple Store certainly won't have it.

When I plug my iPad into my MacBook Pro, neither device is recognizing the other. Any ideas?

The iPad shows it's charging, and the MacBook says "No Camera Found," but NOTHING else is happening. UGH!

I'd start with the following document with that one:

HT204053 I bought the iPhone 5 today. I have 2 apple IDs. I entered the wrong one when I set up the phone. How can I change it to the other ID?

Since upgrading ical on mac can't sync calanders with older generation touch using 3.1.3os now calander on touch generates blank screen...any ideas

since upgrading ical on mac for .me account can't sync calanders with older generation itouch using 3.1.3os now calander on itouch generates blank screen...any ideas

Thank you for suggesting the link. it seems the problem was even simpler than I had thought had I read the FAQ link of the iCal/me upgrade notification ... Apple's latest version of iCal simply does not support versions of the iOS earlier than 4.2. The device I had been using was a first generation touch... Still working ... with out error in good condition despite having been to hades and back... But no longer supported by the newer versions of the iOS and the .ME ical application...
Another beautiful but orphaned device:-(. Like the absence of support for "ancient" apple operating systems, including their more interesting applications, it is simply no longer supported...one must move on to purchase new hardware and it's associated software to keep up with the evolving cloud os. The blank screen ical problem, on the touch, was corrected by performing the standard start up reboot procedure...with no loss of data and a return of the screen interface in the end. Again another example of the really outstanding past efforts to make robust system products. I will try to put my old touch to good use in its new " retirement" status ...use it some where else, like my original 128k Mac ( that still works as well!). Guess it is time to purchase a newer tool ;-)
Thanks again for taking the time to make the effort to assist

I use more than one computer to access my four business email accounts. When one computer is on (and mail is open) emails do not get through to the other computers. This is fine, but how do I make one of the other computers the dominant one?

I use more than one computer to access my four business email accounts. When one computer is on (and mail is open) emails do not get through to the other computers. This is fine, but how do I make one of the other computers the dominant one?

I assume these are POP accounts and all computers are set to remove from Server after downloading.
So on the non dominant ones... Mail Preferences>Accounts, highlight an account, Advanced tab, uncheck remove from Server, just have the main dominant one remove from server.
Or get/setup IMAP accounts.

Just bought an iPad 2 and plugged it in to my home PC and downloaded apps using my wife's iTunes account. I then set up my own iTunes account on my office PC, and none of the apps I downloaded in the new account appear on my iPad.

I just bought an iPad 2 - I plugged it in to my home PC and downloaded a couple of apps using my wife's iTunes account. Since I bought the device for work, I then set up my own iTunes account on my office PC. The problem I am having is that none of the apps I downloaded in the new account appear on my iPad. I can see them on screen #2 in iTunes and I know how to swipe to get to that screen.
I've tried everything mentioned - I authorized my office computer (but not my home one - could this be the problem?). I turned on home network file sharing. Checked to make sure parental controls are off. I'm not sure what to do next.

When you installed iTunes on your work computer, then connected your iPad to that computer, it wiped what was on the iPad, then put the iTunes library (nothing) from the work computer onto the iPad. You can try copying the iTunes folder from your home computer over to your work computer, but since the apps were bought with a different account, they may not load or update properly.

I am trying to set up my newly purchased Apple TV but when I enter my network password while setting up, I am not able to enter the Submit button, any idea how to hit the visible submit button that is visible on screen but not responding?

You need to use the right arrow on the remote to go all the way to the right. The submit button will be highlighted and you can then press select on the remote to proceed.
