IPhone :: Change The Apple Id From The Previous User Into New User?
May 31, 2012
When I try to send text messages or to back up my info to the ICloud,everything seems to be linked to her email address and I can't get rid of it. Do I need to wipe it all out and re-install all my contacts and pictures all over again?
My apple iPhone continues to ask for an old user's password when I need to update an app. The previous user was my daughter and all of her info was removed from the iPhone, her email, passwords to accounts on the iPhone, etc. Sometimes it requests my own password, but usually asks for hers. How do I completely eliminate her password to consistantly use mine?
We are giving my husband's iphone 4s to our daugther and need to erase everything but my husband's apple id is only showing his old email address. Even if we reset the password it still shows the old email address and he can't remember the apple ID for this. How do we reset and then switch the phone to a new apple ID for my daughter linked to her email address?
I just picked up a used Curve 8330. When I activated it with my carrier the previous users email is still on the phone. Is there a way to delete without their users name or password?
I'm new to the BB and purchased an 8330 on ebay. Everythings seems to be fine, except, not all of the pervious owner info was deleted before I got it.. I was able to go into the user info by deleting and adding my own and that worked fine. I was able to activate the phone ok.However, when I set up the email account info for my web mail account, it created an additional account and didn't replace the old owners Gmail account. I receive my emial fine but when I reply from the phone it goes our through the Gmail and not my webmail account. Both Icons are on the screen and I have set "Hide" and "Show All". If I uncheck "Show All" the Icon disappears. If I recheck the "Show All" it is back so it must still be active in background. (I do this uncheck by opening the Browser Icon.) The old name is still there on that Gmail account.
How do I get rid of this old user info, so it won't haunt me anymore?
I have a new email so I changed my iTunes id. Now I cannot get into the app store on my iPhone 4S because it still is trying to find a password associated with my old email.Â
How can I change the email?  I have done it on the computer, but for some reason it is not affecting my phone.
I set up my user Id on my Iphone 2 years ago but 12 months ago I changed ISP and I cannot change the old user ID on my Iphone to my new email address and cannot remember the old password. I have tried Settings>Store but only the new email address appears. If I try updates on my apps it asks for my old Id password and that is where I get stuck, If I go to appleid.apple com it also only tells me that I have only the new user ID. This problem seems to be within the Iphone software, do I have to do a backup and restore to factory defaults and if so are there any problems I may incur?
I have exausted my ideas, and turn to the forum, prior to paying for something that may be a 2second simple fix. Please help if you can. Let me know if you need more info to understand my dilema.
I have been developing iOS and Mac applications from past 2+ years. I have this question for those who work in apple or who are either associated with them by any means or probably you have faced it before. Will Apple approve or reject the application, if we have a screen or even an alert which will ask user to use their UDID in the application - use it after the user's permission. So, it is all about the alert/screen only. Does apple approve the applications that ask user consent before using the UDID?
Trying to connect a Blackberry Storm 9500 to the Blackberry Internet Service to transfer the email capture to this device.Filled in User Name with email address and then filled in password. Then get message:"Blank User Name type a valid user name"email in user name box looks good, would I get this message if the password was wrong?
how can I change the Blackberry user name in "my account"I changed it and the password already and it seems to be already set up but it is not changed in "my account"
I have two children who have shared an Apple ID for the iPod Touches. The older is now getting an iPhone and is old enough to manage his own ID. My question is, if we set him up with a completely new Apple ID, will he be able to sync the phone with iTunes as a new device, even though iTunes currently syncs with his iPod? I guess what I'm asking is, can two different Apple ID's/devices sync with the same iTunes without messing up either device or getting the wrong information sync'd?
for some reason i used the same user ID on my daughters iphone and on mine. Now we each get the others songs, photos and contacts from icloud. Is there a way to make a new user id for myself and keep my stuff
if I purchase an iPhone 4 in the USA will it work ok in the UK? and will my warranty be valid? I'm going to New York soon and I'm in no rush for the new handset but if the exchange rate is right and its cheaper in an Apple store in the USA in a few months then I was gonna wait and just pick the handset up then.
i have a jailbroken iphone 3gs w/ Winterboard and i have installed user wallpaper 4.0 / user lockscreen 4.0 and my Lockscreen photo and Wallpaper have the same photo which if i go into settings->Wallpaper it shows clearly lock & home have two diffrent photos. It was working a few days ago and i just noticed it today.
I have noticed lately that when I add a new contact or edit an old contact I don't have the option to identified if the contact has or not an iphone. When I bought the phone and was adding a new contact it shows by default the word iPhone in the space where you should add the phone number but I have found that I don't have that option anymore.
What causes my WX345 User Profiles setting to change from "Outdoor" to "Headset"? This prevents any conversation since the person I'm calling cannot hear me. Then, after some time, the profile will reset to "Outdoor". This happened for the first time yesterday (3/9/12), but I can't be sure when I can use the phone.
My itunes applications page says I have 5 updates available, but when I click that link, it says "(my user ID) has no updates currently available." I can update from my iphone and am running the latest versions of snow leopard, itunes, and the iphone software. Thoughts?
All of these new features are great but does anyone know where to find a User Guide to show how to engage/use them? Not even Apple.com has anything listed.I stumbled on how to create folders in another thread. It would be nice if all of the info was in a doc somewhere - it'd be a timesaver for me (and I can't be the only one.
In my Iphone 4S safari, while logging in website, after entering username & password, I click, never save for this website. But, now, I want to save. How do I do it?
Today and all of a sudden i was downloading an application from apple store using my account, but the download failed and the following message appeared: "this is not a test user account, create an account using sandbox envirnoment"This is the first time that such thing happens to me knowing that I've downloaded hundreds of applications using my account without any problem.
