Especially tough since the wife had set up an account and then passed away taking the passwords with her. Oh, OUCH!!!! Yes, that IS a major issue there. You'd think that Apple would be accommodating and understanding in a situation like that, wouldn't you? Since I have been active on the internet for a long time and through the years have participated in various places, added things to my software, etc., I have accumulated various passwords and user names. From the very beginning I started jotting user names and passwords down on a "cheat sheet" so that if for some reason I need to log in to a website forum again or need to set up my accounts on a new computer or mobile device, I've got all that kind of info at hand. I join a new forum or I purchase something at a new website and need to have a user name, etc.? I set it up and immediately record the info for later reference -- and believe me, there have been times when this has been VERY handy! And, yes, I do it the old-fashioned way by committing the info to paper rather than hiding it in some obscure online software password program. I still haven't quite surrendered and tossed out pen and paper yet! In my kitchen I have a calendar on the refrigerator upon which I note when my books are due back at the library, when I have a lunch date with a friend, when I am attending a Jackie concert, etc., etc. -- even though I have the ability to put all that kind of info into my iPhone, iPad or computer, too. Each morning as I am taking my first sips of orange juice I look at the calendar, see what may be on the schedule for the day or for the next few days. Works for me! That works for me too. I have all of my passwords in a file on my computer hidden several layers deep in other files and i also have a copy on a flash drive for my kids to use after i am no longer here. My wife was a bookkeeper and an office manager and somehow she kept all of that in her head.

jrchico Have you thought of submitting a forgotten pswd request and have them allow you to reset the pswd and enter a new one? The great thing about itunes pgm is that it allows you to burn a non compressed copies of the mp3 files. They lost me in 2010 when i tried to buy Jackie's first album from them and went back and again tried to by her second. I bought both from Amazon and i have used Amazon ever since. I have never had a problem burning anything i downloaded from Amazon so i see no point in changing now but thanks for thinking of ways to help with the problem. I also bought Jackie's first 2 albums from her store. I abandoned Apple years ago, would never consider going back, Android devices are so much more useful to me, and no ridiculous stuff like batteries that can't be replaced by the user, no memory card slots, etc. I'll take my $199 Chrome Book over any tablet (even my Kindle). Digital music is available from lots of sources, no need to go to Apple for that either. I recently was given a credit at Amazon due to the settlement of a lawsuit against Apple for price fixing on digital books. I'm not real sure the details but that's what the email said. Anyway, I read a fair bit, and I got $140 credit out of the deal... which I could use on anything at Amazon. It's the only good thing Apple ever did for me.

Oh, OUCH!!!! Yes, that IS a major issue there. You'd think that Apple would be accommodating and understanding in a situation like that, wouldn't you? They have accommodated you already, your contract with Apple is not of ownership but a licence agreement. They own the music and you have a life long contract to use their copy. When you die it is not part of your estate, so they get to resell the works again to your benefactors. However, your are aloud to make backup copies onto CD but these are not transferable to another person. As far as your account goes it is not transferable.
Apple and Sony have both been found guilty of price fixing in Australia, HBO and Fox have Australia pretty nicely wrapped up and between the 4 of them they have created the biggest piracy culture in the world. I guess they didn't count on Bali being a $200 plane flight from Australia, substantially less than a Fox subscription fee.
Wiki leaks released transcripts of the US consulate involved in trying to take down a small ISP in order to set a precedent in Australian Law. "Don't take on Telstra, their too big and can afford to fight, pick on someone who can't afford the fight". iiNet did take on the US conglomerate of Hollywood studios and won.
So when the US Consular General had a big cry on Farcebook about all the illegal downloads of Fame of Thrones, he got flamed. It was pretty funny. The current situation is to watch GOT you have to have a premium subscription to FOX Satellite, this costs Hundreds of dollars, where in the US you can by it off the internet per show or as a season. Australia hold the record for illegal GOT downloads.

Ouch. Murdoch seems to be robbing his own countrymen (or at least former countrymen - seems he spends more time in the US, UK & elsewhere now...).

Ouch. Murdoch seems to be robbing his own countrymen (or at least former countrymen - seems he spends more time in the US, UK & elsewhere now...). The piracy culture is very interesting. Perth West Australia is the most isolated city in the world. 30 years ago a trip to Sydney or Melbourne cost $1400 and 4 hours, where a return ticket to Bali with two weeks accommodation in a 4 start hotel was $750 and only 3 hours. Perth had very low wages but a low cost of living but CD's were $30 each. In Bali pirate CD's were $1 each, do the math on that. For $1000 you could restock your CD collection with 250 CD's and get a 2 week holiday out of the winter cold. Later, movies came out on DVD and they were about $4 each.
So for 30 years overpriced CD's in Australia have driven a culture that Sony and friends now want to have a cry about.... there is little empathy for the studio's, and the truth is it will take generations to undo the culture unless they make media access so cheap it is inconvenient to download pirate content. West Australians are now one of the highest paid people on the planet even though they now download legal music for convenience, they sure as hell are not going to sign up for subscription TV. Their ancestors got sent here for stealing a loaf of bread so its in their genetics, most are thankful for it.
Silly season in Darwin is over 3 months when the weather is cool enough to go outside. So overseas backpackers invade (Tourrorists) Darwin over the dry season. Plane flights to Perth are $1200 return (4 hours), while Darwin to Bali is $208 return (2.5 hours). So for 3 months of the year I live in Bali instead of going home. I have a quiver of surfboards and snowboards stashed in storage in airport hotel in Darwin, its a first world county problem.

I thought this forum was free of censorship, how ridiculous when I can use inflammatory words such as ginger when I'm not one myself.

This forum is as free of censorship as we could make it, although there is an automatic program running on this site that corrects your spelling if you write what it considers a bad word. or it will just substitute (bad word)

He actually goes by that most of the time over his given name, Richard. Rick O fixed both problems. "Dick" & "Hell" are no longer prohibited words. I agree with JR that we've tried to avoid censorship as much as possible. Conflict between members causes problems, though, so we've tried to avoid it. Controversial issues have been put to votes by members.

Since she has not had a concert since the first of the year, and cancelled everything until after she turns 18 on April 9th, maybe it has to do with contract with Sony and she may start her season with new material. She has always said she will stay true to her roots of CC, but let's face reality, the market is very small and her 'older' base is dying off. My hope is that she will expand her repetiore with a variety of CC, Country, Gospel, Pop, Soul and everything else. She has a unique voice, expression and emotion that lends itself to many genres. Maybe her time off was used to put together something that is different and will create a new (and younger) fan base. I will continue to be a fan with whatever she produces. I do not know how her last contract was written as to whether she will be able to quit Sony and go indie or sign with someone else. It will be an interesting ride any way she goes.

All those cancellations might also have something to do with lagging concert ticket sales. Regardless, concentrating on new material is the way to go for her imho. :-)
