  • I forgot all of the answers to my security questions and when I set up my apple id I did not add a rescue email, I recently got a new iphone and I cannot purchase anything on it because it asks me to answer my security questions which i can't reset, help!

    I forgot all of the answers to my security questions and when I set up my apple id I did not add a rescue email, I recently got a new iphone and I cannot purchase anything on it because it asks me to answer my security questions which i can't reset because I do not have a rescue email. what do I do?

    this does not help. I have forgotten ALL of the answers to my security questions. I can NOT reset the answers to my security questions without answering two of the three security questions. The other way to reset the answers to these questions is for apple to send me an email on my rescue email addres which I DO NOT HAVE.

  • 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.

    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.

  • When I try to send file from Reader as email it is attached without .pdf extension

    Hello,
    When I try to send file from Reader as email it is attached without .pdf extension.
    What could be a cause of this problem?
    TIA.

    Hello I got more info about this strange scenario. This happens when our user want to send a pdf file embedded on www page. Web application uses this control to display pdf files: Winnovative PDF Viewer Controls for ASP.NET and Windows Forms
    It is strange that when I try on my computer I will get file name with pdf extension, but people in different location get it without .pdf extension. I have no idea what happened, and now I am not sure if it is problem with Reader.
    User reports that he uses Adobe Reader version 11.0.0

    I tried to send a mail message to too many addees. when the rejection came back "cannot send message using the server..." the window is too long to be able to see the choices at the bottom of it. how can I see the choices at the bottom of that window?

    I tried to send it through gmail and the acct is  a POP acct
    I'm not concerned about sending to the long address list. I just can't get the email and window that says "cannot send emai using the server..." to go away. The default must be "retry", because although I cannot see the choices at the bottom of the window if I hit return it trys again... and then of course comes back with the very long pop up window that I cannot see the bottom of so I can tell it to quit trying...

  • Question: When I want to send SMS and click on the contact, the contact came out with names and numbers, as if the whole contacts are there in the phone. When I open the contact, I can only see 3 contact names and the rest of 4000  contacts are not listed

    Question: When I want to send SMS and click on the contact, the contact came out with names and numbers, as if the whole contacts are there in the phone. However, when I open the contact, I can only see 3 contact names and the rest of 4000 plus contacts are not listed, and it makes you difficult to call through contact

    The iPhone remembers information about previous contacts.
    Complelely independently, you have a Contacts app with a contacts list.  It sounds like your contacts list has 3 names on it.  You need to add a few names.

  • When upgrading or downloading certain apps, my iPhone 5C is asking for a password to an account that's not even mine. I want this removed.z

    When upgrading or downloading certain apps, my iPhone 5C is asking for a password to an account that's not even mine. I want this removed.

    It will be  an App that you personally did not buy using your Apple id ( an App purchase locks the App to the Apple id used to buy permanently, to prevent piracy )
    Next time you get the message check which Apps are trying to update ,it will be one or all of those Apps

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. 
    If your sister doesn't know the password for her old ID, and if her old ID is an earlier version of her current ID, she needs to temporarily recreate the old ID so you can delete if from your phone using her current password.  To do this, have her go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with her current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to her old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to her old email address.  You can now use the password for her current ID to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for her old account ID.  After you do this, Next, have your sister recreate her current ID again by going back to https://appleid.apple.com and changing her primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.
    Then your can save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to the camera roll on your device, then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted.  You will be prompted to either keep or delete the iCloud data from your device.  If the data is already in another account you can choose Delete.  If you need to migrate it to another account, choose Keep, then choose Merge when signing into the new account.

  • For the last 10 days I have been unable to open the Mail account on my eMac (MacOS10.4.11). When I click on the icon in the Dock the only option I get is "Force quit" and the main Mail bar will not open any  choice. Any ideas?

    For the last 10 days I have been unable to open the Mail account on my eMac (MacOS10.4.11). When I click on the icon in the Dock the only option I get is "Force quit" and the main Mail bar will not open any  choice. Any ideas?

    You can setup Mail for iCloud on the eMac.
    Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
    I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
    You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
    iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
    On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
    IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
    • Server name: imap.mail.me.com
    • SSL Required: Yes
    • Port: 993
    • Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
    • Password: Your iCloud password
    SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
    • Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
    • SSL Required: Yes
    • Port: 587
    • SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
    • Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
    • Password: Your iCloud password

  • I tried to up date my i phone 4 to iOS 5 then it wiped my phone and now it tells me to connect to iTunes and that the iPhone is in recovery mode and when i connect it goes to preparing to install to iPhone but never goes any further how do i restore

    i tried to up date my i phone 4 to iOS 5 then it wiped my phone and now it tells me to connect to iTunes and that the iPhone is in recovery mode and when i connect it goes to preparing to install to iPhone but never goes any further how do i restore the phone

    by reset option do you mean the DFU restore? worked for me, have you tried that?
    if not - hold the lock and home button until the power down bar comes up. then hold the lock button for ten seconds - next continue to hold the lock button and press the home button for ten seconds - next release the lock button and hold the home button for 10 seconds. this should be done with the phone tethered. If done right and your itunes is configured as such, the phone will reload the drivers and start up itunes, and then prompt for a restore/update.

  • When I plug in apple tv the status light just blinks amber and nothing appears on the screen

    When I plug in my apple tv (first gen) the status light just blinks amber and nothing appears on the screen.  The status light never turns white and won't stops blinking amber.  I've tried to over ride this with the remote, resetting it and trying to revert it to the factory settings.  Is there a way to wake it up or is it a lost cause?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    The system looks like it's unable to start up, this could be software but more likely hardware, either way unless it will start up there is nothing a user can do to resolve this.

  • I do have wifi connection but no internet, how is this possible? I logged in to the internet at my friends place and when I got home my own internet was not working anymore

    I do have wifi connection but no internet, how is this possible? I logged in to the internet at my friends place and when I got home my own internet was not working anymore

    This is possible to be connected to WiFi but not internet.
    You connect to your modem/router via WiFi and whether it is connected to the internet or configured properly to route the internet to WiFi devices is a different story.
    Now if you've already reset your WiFi (try disabling and enabling) and perhaps even restarting your MBP
    Then make sure that your modem/router is connected to the internet.
    You can try any other device, lights on the modem/router or use Eth cable to test.

  • The download function is not working....!! When I click on something like download a doc,pdf or any such file, the firefox just doesn't respond, and when I checked the download, i.e. cntrl+j, I don't find anything in the downloads...

    The download function is not working....!! I don't use any add-ons like idm or dap,etc.... When I click on something like download a doc,pdf or any such file, the firefox just doesn't respond, and when I checked the download, i.e. cntrl+j, I don't find anything in the downloads... I am currently using Firefox 7.0.1....... Nothing is being downloaded, and I am forced to use IE8 for everything... I even tried re-installing, but doesn't help... I am using Windows 7

    TonyE is correct the plugin version comes with Adobe's Reader X.
    The failure in communication is two parted:
    1. Reader X is not Acrobat (Mozilla Plugin Checker)
    2. Acrobat is not mentioned in the Reader X download Page (Adobe)
    therefore confused clients.
    For readers '''CAUTION''' check the minimum requirements for Reader X.
    Here: [http://www.adobe.com/products/reader/tech-specs.html Adobe's Reader X requirements link]
    Do not waste the time to download (80+MB and Site is Slow) if your machine does not have the resources to execute it. ie. '''aging''' Hardware
    Unfortunately the Adobe DLM only checks the requirements after it has
    downloaded BEFORE the install occurs.
    This is '''very expensive''' for both the sender and receiver
    It might be why they called it READER X and READER 9 will not sense an update...
