My iPhone4 and laptop have stopped communicating/syncing in terms of emails. IE: If I delete an email on my phone, it used to automatically delete on my computer, and vice versa. Now, nothing. Help?

Display color profile bug when using the fast account switch from a guest account to an admin account (and vice versa)

Hey,
I'm sometimes using a guest account on my MBP (unibody late 2008 2,4 GHz Core2Duo, 4GB DDR3 running OSX 10.9.4 on an OCZ 128GB SSD) for a more distraction-free working space and I noticed right away a disturbing bug:
Using the fast account switch (upper right hand corner of the screen) in Mavericks from an admin account to log into a guest account (or vice versa) produces, after the fancy rotating cube animation, some strange distortion of the desktop background happens (lasting approx. 2 sec.). After that the color profile of the display is changed into an usable but ugly one, which is disturbing while working with pictures. When checking the color profile in the pref pane, the standard "display" profile is said to be active (it's the one I use) but still the colors aren't the same. Selecting another profile and re-selcting the desired one doesn't fix the problem. Switching back to the other account with the fast switching leaves the colors altered. Logging out and deleting the guest account seems to the problem for the remaining admin account. Rebooting and logging in to either of the accounts (admin or guest) from the standard account selecting page at booting shows the normal color profile.
Is it a general bug or is their anything a can do to prevent this problem (other than never using the fast switching)?
Thanks for your advice.

I cannot agree more with your comments! What a way to frustrate your customers!
I have been having an issue with iCloud on Mac where it kept asking me for my password and sometimes would, sometimes would not continue to access my iCloud mail. Today it just refused to connect to iCloud mail.
I looked in the Mail, Contacts and Calendars in my MacBook Pro settings and discovered that 2 iCloud accounts were present. One with my original Apple ID (a gmail address) and a second with my new iCloud email ( an @me.com address). Having deleted the second account, using the new @me.com address everything is working fine.
So from my viewpoint when I moved over to iCloud I was asked to sign in with my Apple ID (the gmail address) then to create an @me.com address. However, as far as I can see all sign ins to the new @me.com account on Macbook, iPhone and iPad need to be done through the old Apple ID (the gmail address). Is that confusing and just plain crazy???
Further, after creating the new @me.com address I soon found out that this is apparently now forever bound to my old Apple ID and cannot be changed. I mean why can't I delete the iCloud account and start anew with a different @me.com address??? Also, as everybody using iCloud must create an @me.com address why on earth can I not get rid of my old gmail address and have my entire Apple ID accessed through the new @me.com address? Creating a whole new Apple ID will not solve this as we are unable to transfer purchases between accounts.
Apple products are great IMHO, but they do seem to not think things through in a very big way sometimes......

TS4002 When I use my iphone to check my email, and delete unwanted email, it still shows up on my computer~ and vice versa. How do I get the doubling up to stop??

It used to work just fine, but now whenever I receive email if I check it from my phone and delete it, it will still be on my computer. If I check it on my computer, when I get on my phone, it's still there. I'm having to go through email and delete it all, on both devices, rather than just on one.
How can I make it so that when an email is deleted from one device, it will also be deleted from the other? I don't know what I did to make it stop doing this, and I've tried several things, on both my phone and my mac, but it's about to drive me crazy!
Thanks for any help you can give!

But the problem is, that it Did used to do this. It synced for a year and a half and now only in the past four months has it not synced...
Any thoughts?

Stupid newbie question here: When setting up for hot sync, both PC and smartphone will ask for "device name" but how do I know which devide I'm naming? If I'm on the phone, do I specify the phone or the computer; and vice versa.

Hello and thank you for using the Palm Help Forums!
It's more like naming the partnership. By "naming" your device is doesn't do anything harmful. If you name it Pat's Treo, when syncing it tot he computer, hotsync will say "Syncing with Pat's Treo." You can name your device Fido for all it matters.

TS4083 Is there a way to have my Icloud delete my emails on all apple devices that use I cloud? If I delete them on my Iphone, they do not delete on my Ipad and vice versa

I cant figure out how to set up Icloud to delete my emails on all my apple devices that use icloud. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I frequently have emails that I delete on my mac but are not deleted from the iPhone/iPad (this is for an iCloud account, @mac.com). In time they eventually delete, but it can take time. I usuall delete them from the devices as well.

How can i sync email deletions on my iPhone and iMac, and vice versa?

My email provider is Sky in the UK. While i am able to receive the same emails on both devices (imac and iphone) simultaneously, if I delete one on the iphone, it is not deleted on the iMac, and vice versa. I don't want to have to delete emails twice, once on each machine, but rather only once on one machine (and then that email would automatically disappear from the inbox of the other machine).
Is this possible? My sky account is IMAP on the Iphone, but POP on the IMAC. I tried changing it to IMAP on the iMac, but then i couldn't received email messages in MAIL on the iMac so reverted it back to a POP account.
Any advice appreciated. Spent way too many hours today trying to figure this out.
Thanks,
Joe

if it were imap on both, you'd be able to delete an email from one device and it would remove it from the other. they can't have different protocols and still sync with each other

TS4083 So what is the fix? When I delete on my computer I want it to delete on my phone and iPad. Do I put everything on push or fetch?

So what is the fix? When I delete on my computer I want it to delete on my phone and iPad. Do I put everything on push or fetch?

This is a function of the type of email account you are using, not whether you have it set to push or fetch. POP email accounts cannot sync changes across devices. Having changes such as deleting emails synced to your other devices is a feature of IMAP and Exchange Accounts. POP email accounts won't do this. If you're using a POP account, you'll have to switch to an IMAP account such as iCloud email or Gmail in order to do this.

Why is it that when I change the contacts on my phone, it changes them on my mom and dad's as well?

My family and I recently got iPhones for Christmas. One for my dad, one for my mom, and one for me. We also have an iPad 2. They are all hooked up to iCloud via one username. When we got the phones, we had trouble transferring our contacts from our old verizon phones to our new apple ones but we eventually got the contacts we needed. At first, my mom's phone was not connected to the iCloud account shared by the rest of us and the iPad. She wanted the calendar from the iPad so I deleted the account on her phone and added the iCloud account that the iPad was using. All was fine until my dad and I realized that our contacts were wiped from our phones and replaced with my mom's. I then started painstakingly deleted my moms contacts and replacing them on my own on my phone. However, contacts were being deleted from my mom and dad's phone at the same time. It's almost like the three phones are constantly synching with each other. It would be ideal if we could get all of our contacts back the way they were before my mom changed her account but we would settle for this constant synching to stop. Please give us some direction here, we are new to this. Thanks in advance!

Why is it that when I change the contacts on my phone, it changes them on my mom and dad's as well?
Because, as you said "They are all hooked up to iCloud via one username. ". That is exactly what iCloud does.
You need independent iCloud accounts for each person to maintain independent contact lists.

I just got 2 new iphone 4 (verizon) i have a issue, i have 2 itunes account 2 phone seperate names and emails. but when i update or sync my phone it copys my wife stuff on to my phone and vice versa.

hello
i need some help.
well you see up above where i have 2 iphone 2 different names for the phones and 2 different accounts with 1 itunes on widows 7.
my problem is when i update or sync my phone it grabs all her info and apps ect. and vice versa when she does it to. is there any way that i can stop this from happing again?
1 more thing this happens just on her phone when she goes to download a app for some reason my email is on her phone, we have to sign out from her phone and sign back in and put her email in any thoughts on this?

By far the simplest way to do this is create separate accounts on the computer for each person. That way, you each log into your own separate account, sync your own device(s) to your own contacts/calendars/apps/music and so forth.

My laptop hard drive crashed - when I go to sync my iPhone it says that my phone is already synced with another computer and can only be synced with one computer at a time.

My Dell laptop hard drive crashed - when I go to sync my iPhone it says that my phone is already synced with another computer and can only be synced with one computer at a time. When I hit sync is says it will erase my phone and sync with the new computer which is blank. How do I get my phone to sync my contacts, pics, apps etc. over to my new hard drive without losing anything.

Yes, so what's confusing... Did you not restore the backup of your data, contacts, pics, apps, music, etc. to the new hard drive after you replaced it or reformatted it or whatever you did? If so, then you can just sync your data back.
If not, please try searching the forum. This has been addressed hundreds of times here.

My new iphone 5 email is synched with my home office computer Outlook email using a POP account, but deleting an email on my computer does not delete it on my phone and vice versa. Is there any way to get a true synch?.

POP does not support synchronization between the server and clients. You will need to use IMAP or Exchange Active Sync if your email provider supports it.

Many of my recently uploaded photos are horizontal when they should be vertical, and vice versa. I've corrected all these on my laptop but in my iPad and i Phone photo streams they are still mixed. How can I fix this? Thanks.

Add the corrected ones to your PS - PS contains only what was added to it - changes made are not applied to the PS - you have to re add the updated photos

I would like to delete emails on my PC when I delete them on my Ipad (and vice versa, if possible). How do I set this up? Thanks.

The ability to do that would depend on the type of email account that you have. If it is a POP account, it cannot be done. If it is an IMAP account, it should sync across devices automatically. If you are not sure what type of account it is, who is your email provider?

HT1386 syncing i4phone 4s so that it deletes email on computer and phone at the same time

syncing i4phone 4s so that it deletes email on computer and phone at the same time

Has nothing to do with syncing your phone. Determined by what type of email account you have. To keep mail in sync requires an IMAP or Exchange account, not possible with a POP account.
