Have you tried signing out of the App Store then signing back in?
From the App Store menu bar click Store > Sign Out
Quit and relaunch the App Store then click Store > Sign In with the correct Apple ID.

MacBook Pro starts then the apple logo comes up and it looks like it want to continue then a white screen comes up and stays

I purchased a refurbished MacBook Pro (MACBOOK PRO APPLE MD385LL/A)
I did go to newegg and purchase / install 16 GB of RAM
It worked fine for the first week or so, now   I shut down and when I restart - it starts - then the apple logo comes up and it looks like it wants to continue   - then a white screen comes up and stays.
This just started.
I got this fix from on line
Shut down the computer.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Macbook if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
It works most of the time   How do I fix this permanently?

Can you try putting in the old RAM to see if the problem persists?

I have just upgraded to Mountain Lion and my signatures for my Mail is not showing up. I have the signatures inthe preference panes and selected for the email address, but when I make a new message, the signature shows as none and doesn't give me a choice

I have just upgraded to Mountain Lion and my signatures for my Mail are not showing up. I have the signatures inthe preference panes and selected for the email address, but when I make a new message, the signature shows as none and doesn't give me a choice. Yesterday, the signatures were stacking instead of switching to the one I wanted to choose.

I had this and fixed it.
I had upgraded to Mountain Lion and my signatures in Mail were fine. But then about a week later, I got a new computer and used Migration Assistant to copy my stuff to the new machine. Upon opening Mail, I had all the correct Signature information in the Preferences>Signatures window, but nothing worked.
After lots of hunting, I found the Signature Folder. It's in:
Yourusername>Library>Mail>V2>MailData>Signatures
Looking at my previous setup (which works) I saw in that folder two types of files: .webarchive and .siganture
Looking in my new machine's Signature folder, I saw only the .webarchive folders, not the .signature folders
Since this was literally a clone of my previous setup to a new machine, here's what I did:
1. Quit Mail
2. In Problem machine, go to
Yourusername>Library>Mail>V2>MailData>Signatures
3. Move the Signatures folder someplace safe, but out of the MailData folder
4. Get the Signatures Folder from the working install (like a backup) and copy it to the MailData folder on the problematic machine
5. Start Mail on the problem machine
This worked for me. I don't know why Migration Assistant didn't copy the full signature folder, but this fixed it. It worked perfectly partly because I had just backed up with Carbon Copy Cloner and the very next day set up the new machine. I don't know where Lion or earlier versions of mail stored signatures, but the absence of the .signature filetype seems to be the problem.
Hope this helps

I changed my apple id, but in apps store when asked for password, original apple id appears so password doesn't work wit it. Now can't buy apps.

I changed my apple id, but now in apps store when asked for password, it listed my original apple id which password will not work. How to get apps store to recognize changed apple id?

f you updated your existing account then try logging out of it on the device by tapping on the id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on it. If you created a new account then any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can download updates to its apps.

When I boot up my machine, the apple logo comes up and the little pinwheel comes up as if it is loading up. Then another screen comes up stating "you need to restart your computer. Hold down the power button for several seconds...." any thoughts?

I have already tried to start in safe mode. No go. I tried the single mode option as well. Volume ok. I don't have the os x disc. The computer was given to me because they could not fix the problem. Not computer smart. Does anyone have any ideas?

Apple may still supply the original restore CDs/DVDs for a nominal fee. Have your serial number and model information available when you call them. You do not have to be the original owner.

HT1338 get this response when trying to check for updates The operation couldn't be completed. (NSURLErrorDomain error -1100.)

The operation couldn’t be completed. (NSURLErrorDomain error -1100.)

There are many people suffering from this problem right now (including me). It appears to be a server issue. Just wait and try checking for updates again tomorrow.
Some things I have heard indicate that this may be a regional problem, though what parts of the world are affected I don't know yet. A few people have been helped by deleting the following preference file (paste the path into the Go -> Go to Folder window in the Finder to locate it), though most have not:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
Note that if you are trying to download iTunes 10.7, that can be found here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1576
Also, note that there is no reason to be anxious to get it, as the only thing added in iTunes 10.7 is compatibility with iOS 6, which will not be available until the 19th, and the new iPhone, which will not be available until later as well. The new iTunes that was announced is iTunes 11, which is also not yet available.

HT201412 What should I do if my iPod touch doesn't show the apple logo on it and doesn't turn on?

I am trying to turn on my iPod touch, but it's not working. And it's not showing the apple logo too. I charge it but it's not working. And I also press on the home button and lock button but it's not working. Can you please tell me how I have to turn on my ipod.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

HT1923 My iPad connects me to the Apple store in england and won't allow me to purchase or dos load anything as I am supo sed to use a store in Argentina. Would prefer USA.how do I change?

How do I change geographical locación of Apple store?

Hi Ronpato,
Sign on to iTunes. Once signed on, click on your Sign On ID, and in the dropdown, click on View Account. In the Country/Region section, click on Change Country or Region. Follow the instructions to change your iTunes store country.
Note: In order to change to another country, your AppleID must have an address in that country, and if you are using a Credit Card for payment method, the credit card must be issued by a bank in that country. The iTunes store will let you know if the country you have selected is not valid for your AppleID/iTunes Sign on ID.
Cheers,

Hey. I have recently made an update on my daughters iMac, particularly update OS X 10.9.4, when finished, its still asking for update and the same update stills remarked in the apple update menu and at the App store app. Why doesn't stop asking f.ud?

Hey. I have recently made an update on my daughters iMac, particularly the update OS X 10.9.4, when finished, its still asking for update and the same update stills remarked as ready in the apple update menu and remarked as 1 to go at the App store app. Why doesn't stop asking for update when its done like 5 times or more? Thanks for taking your time!

If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS.* You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used.
If you use FileVault 2, then before running the Installer you must launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the FileVault startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) It will be nested below another icon with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar and enter your login password when prompted. Then quit Disk Utility to be returned to the main Recovery screen.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode. All other data will be preserved.
*The linked support article refers to OS X 10.9 ("Mavericks"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later.

The app must have been purchased using your friends account. This means that the app belongs to your friend.
You need to buy your own copy.
