Whilst charging my iphone I was asked to very my Apple ID. This has never happened before. Is it normal?
I don't think it is normal but it happened to me last night with iOS 7.1 on just my iPhone but not on either iPad in my household. The fine print on the sign in request noted that it was for iCloud backup (which happens when the phone charges if it is connected to wi-fi). I found one user who reported it as a bug while 7.1 was still in beta and I've responded to one other user today who also had this happen. The beta user reported it happening every day so I'm strongly hoping that isn't the case with mine.

I just updated my 3GS to 5.0 and most of my apps and contacts disappeared. THis has never happened before through many updates. How can I get it back to where it was?
I did a restore from backup but that did not change anything.
I can see my apps in iTunes - it is like the update got some apps but not all, no contacts.
Total waste of my Friday.
What steps can I take to bring the phone back.
I know Steve is not smilingI got my contacts back by doing another restore! Relief..
But only a very few odd apps are showing up on the 3GS
Any suggestions? -

i just recently got a new iPhone 4 (my other one had water damage) and the service is all of a sudden terrible and my calls are dropped constantly. This has never happened before. Any suggestions on what I can do? This is really frustrating!
May be your carrier but try a reset:
Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons until the screen goes dark and the Apple logo appears -
I am being asked to provide my billing info for updating free apps... This has never happened before. I don't have a credit card so is there anyway around this??
The only way is to create an Apple ID without a credit card. The one you currently created will not work, it has to be a new one, and use this support document to do it. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2534 Make sure you follow the directions exactly.

my itunes account is locked after i tried to log in. for some reason (this has never happened before) it asked to type in some security question answers such as what is my favorite car and job. and when i answered it, it asked me the question again and when I answered, it locked my account.
Sorry for the typos, I hope my message still gets across!

I cannot open my photoshop. Its asking me for a serial number, which I already have. However, it will not accept my serial number. I've had this program for 5 years and this has never happened.
If your Creative Suite version is #3 through 6, you might try running the CS Cleaner Tools in preparation for a re-install.
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
If you have a legacy version, it may be that the activation servers for your product are no longer available.

Someone please help! I do not know how to fix this. It keeps saying my Mobile Device has not been started and I can't get my phone to show up in the iTunes window AT ALL. It will charge while plugged in, but it just won't come up in iTunes.
Sorry, the error message should read, "...the Apple Mobile Device service has not been started."

how do i resolve these problem, it's difficult to get my mail on my iphone again it keep telling my that THE CONNECTION TO THE SERVER FAILED
Hi StuNYC,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you're seeing an alert message when opening Mail on your iOS devices. Do you have multiple email accounts setup on the devices? Take a look at the article below, it provides suggestions that will resolve most issues that cause an alert like that to appear in when starting the Mail app.

hi, yesterday I was a strange thing happened. my iphone was fully discharged and went out, when I turned there were not any messages. This has never happened to anyone?
Thank you.!thanks KiltedTim.....i hope its new...i brought it new so why would i want a refurbished one.
I think you might be right with them not being out long enough...well here's hoping -
My icloud emails arent arriving most of the time and a few days ago my iphone and ipad started showing "Can't Get Mail" box. This has not happened before since I set up the iclud email address with the purchase of my ipad about a month ago.
That's one of the weird things.. it recognizes it maybe 10% of the time. And usually, only after I do the two-button reset. Problem is.. since it won't charge above 2%, anytime I try to do a restore or anything like that using iTunes, my device shuts off and I lose whatever progress I'd made.
So, an update... after reading through a bunch of similar complaints (there are literally 1000's of them so there's NO WAY this isn't somehow ios7 related, thanks a lot APPLE ) I decided to try a restore in recovery mode. After 3 hours and several disconnections... I ended up having to just set it up as a new iPad, as the restore did nothing. Weirdly though... as I was doing the restore in recovery mode.. I noticed I'd gotten up to a 10% charge.. higher than it's been since September, so after setting it up as a new device, I turned it off and plugged it in using the wall charger. 2 hours later and I was up to 38%. Still not great, as my iPad, before ios7 could've fully charged twice in the amount of time it took for me to now get 28% more of a charge. And that's with a fully cleaned out device.. so that really ***** and I'm now more confused than ever.
But I'm gonna leave it overnight charging and see what I come up with tomorrow. Sadly, when I paid $600 for it in February, I never expected to have to play "wait and see" with it... -
When I want to download it ask me for my password than it goes right to a security screen asking me answer three questions I never set up. This has never happened to me before. What do I do?
If it's a free app it won't charge you. Perhaps the billing info you have on file is outdated/incorrect and iTunes needs to verify it before allowing you to download anything first.
This is quite common actually. -
I have changed my password & changed my alternate email I'm not sure what else to do to verify my account
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.

We have 4 Iphones. As a family we have happily shared the same ITunes account and one AppleID. After the most recent iPhone IOS update all our contacts and calendars have merged and we randomly receive some messages that one of us has sent to another contact.
This is causing chaos.
Can anyone help me with:
1. Has anyone experienced a similar problem recently?
2. The records to the individual phones have not been saved been saved separately. After this merging of all the data into one composite record, is there anyway to reverse the change and restore the phones to just their individual records?
3. I guess that the cause may be the common AppleID. I have tried to create my own AppleID but my personal email address is already linked to the existing AppleID so I am blocked from setting up a separate AppleID in my own name. Does anyone know how I can get around this block?
4. Would it be better to create a separate Apple ICloud address for each of us as well? How do I do this?
Many thanks in anticipation,
PeterThis is exactly what happens when sharing a single Apple ID for iCloud and iMessage. Why would you expect any different?
