When I try to download anything from iTunes or the app store on my iPod touch, my sister's Apple ID comes up instead of my Apple ID. How can I get my iPod touch to ask for the password for my Apple ID rather that of my sister's.

You can try to tell the iPod to use yours:
1. Tap Settings
2. Navigate to "iTunes & App Store"
3. Tap Apple ID:
4. Tap "Sign Out"
5. Sign in to your account.

I recieved an ipod 5 for a early christmas present a day ago, I already owned an ipod 4 so i just used my info from that ipod as a back up for my 5g. but now when i try to download music from itunes it says i must use my security questions (which i made over a year ago) I can't remember the answers and i can't get on the email that it sends the reset info to. i don't know what to do and its really frustrating. please help ASAP!
You need to contact Apple to get the questions reset. Click here, phone them, and ask for the Account Security team, or fill out and submit this form.
Whichever method you use, you probably won't get a response until the 26th. If you absolutely must make a purchase before then, create a new Apple ID; you won't be able to transfer previous purchases or iTunes Store credit to it.

When I try to download 'Pages' from iTunes, an error displays 'Application Not Compatible. This application requires iPhone 5.0 Software Update' WHY? This keeps happening.
I sounds like you have the first generation (1G) iPod Touch with an iOS earlier than 2.0, Yu can identify your ipod here:
Identifying iPod models
You can identify your iOS version by going to Settings>General>About and look by Version. Yu can update ti iOS 3.1.3 (the lated for the 1G) by this link. It is a paid update. You may have to try another browser to get he sublink to work correctly.

Internet stops working every time I try to download anything from iTunes.
Every time I try to download a movie from my purchased list on iTunes it freezes shortly after stating then the internet stops working. This only happens on my iMac. I have 10.10 and everything is up to date on my iTunes. The internet is not affected on any other platform. To regain internet I have to disconnect from wifi and reconnect.
On a side note, sometimes when I restart my mac the finder bar disappears and the system freezes. I have to hard reboot and then soft reboot for it to work properly again. Help please!!Emmie_63 wrote:
Maybe I owe itunes from a past purchase? I'm guessing maybe there was not enough money in my bank account the last time I purchased a song. But now there is. My debit card info is correct and there is plenty of money in the bank account.
To sort this out...

Each time i try to download anything from itunes it says invalid security code
each time i try to download from itunes it says invalid security code
This same issue bothered me for years. The account I had used to purchase iTunes songs with suddenly stopped working. And always it was the same error about the security code.
I talked to iTunes support, my bank and the eCommerce customer support for my Visa card. No one could ever tell me what it was until this year. I tried for years, literally years, to figure it out. I had to buy iTunes gift cards and that was not convenient for me. But thankfully, someone who worked in the credit department of a major online retailer, finally explained it to me.
Small banks, sometimes large banks, often don't opt to offer debit and credit cards that use Visa's stronger security, which is advertised as "Verified By Visa". Not all stores and online shops use this security method during their checkout process, but iTunes does. (Amazon, for example, does not require it)
So any error having to do with the security code means that Apple's iTunes shopping cart requires the stronger security method and does not accept the older 3-digit security code on the back of the regular Visa debit and credit cards. You would want to see which of your cards is supporting Verified By Visa security, and use one of those. The card you are currently using will never be accepted, no matter how many people tell you to carefully check your billing and account addresses and spelling, etc.
So get a Verified by Visa card, or use MasterCard. -
Download error when I try to download ios5 from itunes
ios5 downloads until the file is updated and then it causes an error message, says my network connection timed out, which is inaccurate! What can I do to install ios5?
THIS WAS COPIED FROM A THREAD THAT WORKED FOR ME SO I CAN'T TAKE THE CREDIT
Open notepad as administrator, and direct yourself to:
C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc
open the "Hosts" file:
note the "127.0.0.1 gs.apple.com" portion near the bottom. your hosts may be different, and if so, then look for that part specifically. the problem for me, lied within the fact that just before the "127.0.0.1 gs.apple.com" part, there originally was no hash(#) with the space like the rest of the hosts file. This was all I had to fix. After editing and then SAVING the hosts file in notepad I restarted iTunes and the update went through without a hitch!
so if you do not see the hash and space before the "127.0.0.1 gs.apple.com" part, all you have to do is put the #, and then press tab! I hope this works for some of you guys! So just to be clear, that particular line in the file should look like:
# 127.0.0.1 gs.apple.com
good luck! -

When I try to download anything from i tunes it is so slow it times out
When trying to download from i tunes the download time is horrendus (we are talkind days rather than hours or mins) and it usually times out (err 50) have done checks on my modem and broadband speed and both check out ok . Anybody help ?
Hey there: That doesn't sound like much fun :( I think it might be downloading fine. Go to tools > options > general > save files to see what folder things are being saved to and see if your files are there.
Here is an article with the specifics - [[Unable to download or save files]].
Hope that helps! -

I am trying to store music for two different iPods on the same Windows 8 computer, and when I try and download content from the Cloud I get an error message. Is it possible to have two different Apple IDs on the same computer?
Unfortunately you've discovered too late how important it is to maintain an up-to-date backup of your iTunes library (and all other data of value). You could, before wiping the drive, have considered making use of a commercial data recovery service that could (albeit at considerable cost) have extracted your library from the hard disk, even if virus infected.
In the absence of that option, you will need to restore the content of your library from its original sources:
Depending on your location, you may be able to re-download any iTunes Store purchases that are still available on the Store
Likewise, most digital purchases from Amazon (including auto-rip copies of purchased CDs) should be available from the Amazon Cloud and via the Amazon Music application - the same may be true of other commercial sources for digital downloads
Content imported from your CDs will have to imported again
The specific situation that you describe regarding the music imported from your friend's external HDD suggests that either the source is badly organized and/or originates from a source other than iTunes (other media players may use alternative tags for information like artist, title, album, etc. that are not wholly consistent with how iTunes handle these). Without details of the issues you're seeing it is difficult to suggest a remedy other than going through the media album-by-album, track-by-track, and correcting the inconsistencies.
In the absence of a backup or access to the original library data there is no option other than painstakingly recreating your library as described above. As you do so, you'll now realize how important creating and maintaining backups are - in my case I have at all times three separate duplicates of my library, in two different locations, where none is ever more than a week old compared to the content of my master library.
