I recently updated the software on my ipad2 to 5.0.1 and when I send a message via "chat" it shows on all the iPhones associated with my account (my sisters, my husbands, etc) is there a way to stop that?

If you have been using your phone as recommended, you should have minimal data loss from the inability to restore from a backup.
Contacts and calendars should be synched to a computer application like Outlook or Address Book (or a cloud service like Google Contacts or iCloud). The update process does NOT affect these computer applications so your contacts and calendars should be safe and sound in the application ready for synching back to your phone.
Same for photos. It is recommended that photos be imported to your computer as soon as possible after taking them (just as you would import them from any other camera) for storage, archival and safekeeping. Again, your photos should be safe and sound on your computer.
If you've not been using your computer as recommended, you've learned a very hard lesson, I'm afraid.

Hi,
My laptop was stolen lately with iCloud activated on it. I realize that i can remotely wipe it using find my phone but I really doubt that the thief will go online. So is there a way to stop that laptop from getting my iCloud updates at least?

Hi, an hour ago I was about 75% progress downloading OS X Mountain Lion. I was using a wifi connection on an cafe. I turned off my wifi, forgetting to pause the downloading. Now I am re-downloading from start. Is there a way to retrieve that 75% progress? Thanks for help.
I wouldn't do that either. Just let it complete.
Pausing then disconnection you I net connection may drop the download again and then you may have to start over. -
I have deleted certain purchased songs from my iphone, but everytime i sync my phone with my computer it adds them back. Is there a way to stop this from happening?
It sounds like you and your husband are sharing an Apple ID, a version of iTunes on your computer, or both.
I recommend you share neither your Apple ID nor your version of iTunes. You can still share music by using Store > Authorize this computer and enter your spouse's information. But it sounds llike this sharing is the cause of your problem. -
I've broken my iPhone and have put my sim card in my old iPhone 3. If I plug my old iPhone 3 into my computer, will it update the iPhone 3 with everything that is on my phone that is now broken, or will it 'update' iTunes with what was on the old iPhone?
Plug your phone into the wall charger for at least 30 minutes...make sure you have a sim card in the phone...then:
Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.
Make sure you have no anti-virus software running or any firewalls...turn all of that stuff off. -

Somehow the country associated with my account was changed to China. I did not make this change. My credit card information needs to be updated but the system will not let me update either my credit card information or the country back to the United States. My updated credit card information is not accepted because the country is China. It will not allow me to change the country until the credit card information is changed. Help!!!
This exact thing has happened to me. Did you get it resolved? If so, how??

Is there a way to change the icon associated with icloud account?
Is there a way to change the icon associated with my iCloud account? It's currently a rose and i do not like it.
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Are you referring to your iCloud account picture or your user picture?
It looks like you are referring to your user picture. To change it, open System Preferences > Users & Groups, press the picture box and choose the user picture you want from the ones that came by default. If you want to select a different picture stored on your Mac, drag that photo onto the picture box.
If you want to change your iCloud account picture, open http://www.icloud.com and log in with your Apple ID. Then, press your name at the top right of the site and press the user picture. If you put the cursor on the picture box, you will see a button at the top of the box to change your picture -

As it says, I got a Mac Book Pro from my company and I would like to update the apps on it. They are registered to a former employee's Apple ID, is there anyway for me to change it to my Apple ID? Or do all of the Apps need to be re-purchased?
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
You must repurchase the applications because you can't transfer programs from an Apple ID to another one -
I have a new laptop, and have copied over my existing itunes libary, but when i connect my ipad, and go to update the software to the new version it warns me that it will wipe all my apps etc..... How can i stop this from happening and make my new laptop the "home" for my ipad??
Any help gratefully received! :-)Macs use an application called Migration Assistant to copy material from the old Mac to the new one. The macs are connected together and each runs Migration Assistance and the user chooses what stuf to copy onto the new Mac.
Unfortunately I do not know how to do this between pcs or between a Mac and a Pf or even if it's even possible. -
How do I change the country associated with my account?

The 15" power book had this:
Memory Type: DDR3 PC3-8500, DDR3 (non-ECC)
The 20" iMac has this:
Memory Type: DDR2 PC2-5300, DDR2 (non-ECC)
I'm not sure what the difference between DDR3 and DDR2 is. Any support would be great.DDR stands for Double Data Rate, the original DDR had a speed of 266MHz, double the rate of the previous memory standard of SDRAM which ran at 133MHz. DDR2 and then DDR3 are the successors of DDR. To avoid fitting the wrong type of module they use different memory slots and will only fit the one they were designed for, by way of slots cut in the memory boards at precise positions which correspond to notches in the memory slots.
If you want to know what memory will fit which computer I would go to the Crucial website and use their online Memory Advisor, put in the brand and model, it will tell you exactly which modules fit it and what kits (if any) Crucial have available for it.
