Contact Picture on iPhone not the same as on Computer

I recently changed the picture in Address Book for my own contact information, but when I sync my phone the old picture remains in the phone. I've tried erasing and restoring the phone but every time I sync it still uses that old picture, even though I've deleted it from my computer as far as I can tell. Help?

I'm not sure if this will make any difference but try resetting the sync history on your Mac which is done via iSync preferences with the iSync application located in your Applications folder.
After resetting the sync history, restart your Mac and try syncing again.
If this doesn't work, have you also tried restoring your iPhone as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup? This will require changing all iPhone settings manually to the existing but worth a try as one of the last steps since it seems you have tried everything else.

The MAC signature found in the HTTP request '***' is not the same as any computed signature. Server used following string to sign: 'POST

Hi,
When trying with Postman sending a REST call to Azure Storage Queues I get:
The MAC signature found in the HTTP request '***' is not the same as any computed signature. Server used following string to sign: 'POST.
The code I have for creating the Authorization Header:
var accountName = "my_account";
string key = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["my_access_key"];
DateTime dt = DateTime.Now;
string formattedDate = String.Format("{0:r}", dt);
var canonicalizedHeaders = "x-ms-date:" + formattedDate + "\n" + "x-ms-version:2009-09-19" + "\n" ;
var canonicalizedResource = "/my_account/myqueue/messages";
var stringToSign = String.Format("POST,\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n{0}{1}", canonicalizedHeaders, canonicalizedResource);
stringToSign = HttpUtility.UrlEncode(stringToSign);
HMACSHA256 hmac = new HMACSHA256(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(key));
var signature = Convert.ToBase64String(hmac.ComputeHash(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(stringToSign)));
var authorizationHeader = String.Format(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, "SharedKey {0}:{1}", accountName, signature);
return authorizationHeader;
Anyone any idea what I'm missing/doing wrong?
Additional question: do i have to create for every message I want to send a new Authorization header? Or is there an option (as with Service Bus Topics) to create a header that can be used for a certain timeframe?
Thanks.

One issue is with this line of code:
HMACSHA256 hmac = new HMACSHA256(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(key));
Please use the following:
HMACSHA256 hmac = new HMACSHA256(Convert.FromBase64String(key));
and that should take care of the problem.
Regarding your question, "do i have to create for every message I want to send a new Authorization header? Or is there an option (as with Service Bus Topics) to create a header that can be used for a certain timeframe?"
With your current approach, the answer is yes. What you can do is create a Shared Access Signature on the queue which will be valid for certain duration and then use that for posting messages to a queue using simple HttpWebRequest/HttpWebResponse.
Hope this helps.

When I try to buy ibooks from my ipad, the virtual keyboard is not the same as my computer, and so as my password consists of numbers, letters and symbols my ipad keeps showing that my password is incorrect! Is there any way around this problem please?

Are you using the virtual keyboard to input your password and you cannot see/find the characters you need on that keyboard?
Or are you trying to use a bluetooth keyboard and pressing the printed key does not produce the right character?

ICloud Contacts on iPad are Not the Same as the local Contacts on my iPhone..how can i put all my Contacts from iPhone into iCloud?

I want to have all my local iPhone Contacts in the cloud to have them also on my iPad.
iCloud only saved 36 from 225 total Contacts. My IPhone Contacts are saved on the iPhone itself, but how can I Transfer them into the cloud?

The Mac uses Mac OS X and iDevices use iOS. These are two different operating systems and the apps must be written for each operating system specifically, even when the apps go by the same name, such as the iWork apps, they are two ifferent versions of the same app for the two different platforms.
So, as an example, Safari has been written for three different operating systems, Mac OS X, iOS and Windows. And the Safari apps, as similar as they are visually, are not interchangeable for the different platforms.

Contacts on iPad are not the same as iPhone after iPad restore

I had to restore my iPad as i had forgotten the password 10 times (dooh!)
i had to create a new itunes as effectively it was a new ipad.
Everything is generally fine apart from;
1) the contacts on the iPad are different from my iphone. I am scared to plug in my iPhone to iTunes incase I mess up my contacts on there.
2) the mailbox set upon my iPad is way different too, for example I now only have an inbox, trash and sent, no junk or others that there were before.
As I said before I am scared to plug my phone in incase it messes my contacts up. e.g it takes the iPad info. and deletes the iphone data. But if that is the only way to do it so be it. And one other thing, I'm not a techno geek, plain words are good for me!
I hope someone can help me please.. Thank you.

How do i sync contacts on two iphones from the same computer without merging the contacts

I called tech support and they suggested I set up a separate user account on my computer and that should create a new windows contact file (which it did). When I sync the iphone from the new user account, it seems to still be syncing to the windows contacts folder in the main administrator account and not the newly created account. iIconfirmed this because i deleted one contact from the iphone and one contact from the new windows contact folder. I then did a sync and no changes occurred on phone or the windows contact folder in teh new user account. I then went to the original user account and teh name I deleted from teh iphone was deleted from that windows folder. I am not able to select any different folder to sync contacts with in the itunes "info" tab. Do I need to set up under a completely different computer?

I called support and they helped me realize the " sync contacts with windows contacts" was unchecked (maybe I didn't click sync or apply when I first checked it?). He helped me clean up some unnecessary contacts by clicking the contacts box in the advance tab and removing names directly from the windows contacts folder before syncing.

Laptop keyboard that Repair Center took picture of is not the same as the one I mailed in

A little over a week ago I sent my DV7 laptop into HP to have the sound fixed, apparently the sound ports had gone bad. Nothing else was wrong with the machine. I had worked with the chat technician for around 45 minutes, allowing him access to the computer and all he could find was that the sound ports hardware neeed replacing. Again, the machine was working beautifully except for the sound. After I got the box, I got it correctly packed and picked up by FedEx. After a week I get a call from support telling me there is water or liquid damage not covered by the warranty, do I want to pay $240 to get it repaired. I knew there had never been water damage to my machine. I argued with him and he came down fifty percent to $117. I was not happy. But later, when I got the pictures, I knew from the picture of the keyboard with water spots that it was not mine. I called back and this person allowed me to go up the ladder to the Escalation team. I was called back and the charge I paid with a credit card would either not be charged or reimbursed. I was happy about that until...
Until I got this note about the repair and the parts needed for repair
FAN - HEAT SINK
1 685445-001 SYSTEM BOARD
1 684559-001 TOP COVER - TOUCHPAD
685445-001 KEYBOARD
Had all these parts had been bad, I could not have continued to use my machine with no problems for 2 days, let alone allow a tech to enter my machine with the applet I installed to see the inside and control it. All that was wrong with the machine I sent in was sound. The machine they are saying is fixed is not mine. And, as I said, the picture of the water stained keyboard/ control pad almost looke photoshopped. That was not the machine I had put into the FedEx box a week before. Anyone ever heard of something like this? Again, this machine had no water damage ever while I had it. It was not until HP service got their hands on it was there anything like this.
I am receiving a machine by Tuesday. I don't even know, after all this that it will be my machine. I know I had several stickers on the top of the machine so that will be one test. Of course finding the serial number may be the next, unsure of that. I always just let HP go into my machine when I chat online for help to find all that info. But, my Lord, the pictures sent to me were horrible. Like something left outside in the rain for days. This machine was wonderful and I never would have allowed anything to happen to it that HP has said had happened. I am sure, as I said, that I would not have been able to use it for several days as I waited for the box if it was as the service center said and sent pictures of. I am at a loss. Could it all be just a mistake? Again, I will see on Tuesday, April 1 and write back here about what is what.
UPDATE: Though not an explanation of the mystery, HP truly made up for all the worry and confusion of the mysterious water damage. I am very happy all round about everything.

Sort Order on Iphone not the same as on Itunes

Hi, after one of the recent Itunes updates I noticed the sorted order on my play lists is no the same on the phone.
I like to sort by date modified so that my pod casts are in the proper order on the phone. I can work around this by manually picking the next podcast, but still the problem remains and is a software issue which should be fixed.
So, anyone else notice this?
Thanks,
Mike

Yeh I've noticed the same thing, ever since this new iTunes update.
Clearly in iTunes I have my songs sorted in alphabetical order but when I sync to my iTouch the same playlist in the iTouch sorts in a random order.
My smart playlists in iTunes are sorted in alphabetical order, when I sync to my iTouch, all the songs muddle. Whereas normal playlist will sort in the order as I tell them to in iTunes, which follows up on the iTouch.
Weird :S

Problems when I sync yahoo contacts w/ 2 iphones sharing the same computer

My son and I both have iPhones and we have 1 PC. We both have separate yahoo accounts. When I try to sync his phone, it picks up all of my yahoo contacts which is a problem since this is my work phone. Before syncing his phone, I configure his contacts to his yahoo account but it still happens every time. So then I have to delete all of my contacts off of his phone and from his yahoo account. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong? I am sure there is an easy answer to this dilema.

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
The solution is simple: both of you should establish separate user accounts on your computers, and synchronize your iPhones to your individual accounts.

The keys on the sides of the space bar will shift the keys to a different set of characters. Pressing the ".?123" key takes you to another layout. On that layout the "#+=" key will shift to another set of characters. Between those 3 layouts you should have access to all of the symbols printed on a regular keyboard. You might want to check your keyboard and international settings in the Settings app if you think that may be an issue. If you are using key combinations to get symbols that are not printed on the physical keyboard, let us know so we can see if there is a way to generate the character/code on the iPad keyboard.

HT204022 I have iPhoto, iOS, etc. all up to date.... however my iPad, iPhone, and Mac PhotoStreams all contain different pictures and aren't the same. Any ideas why? I'd rather not reset the whole thing if I don't have too.

OK, restart in Safe Mode, this will clear some caches. It's possible one or more is corrupt. To restart in Safe Mode when you hear the start up tone hold down the Shift Key until you see a progress bar. Let it fully boot then restart normally and test.
Also I am assuming you have checked Finder - Preferences - General and see what boxes are checked in "Show these items on desktop." You can also mount an item in Disk Utility, simply highlight it and then look in the File menu for Mount.....

How do I delete contacts on my iphone (not 1 by 1) to resync to my computer and also do the same with calendar items?

How do I delete contacts on my iphone 4 to resync to my computer - also delete calander items so I can re install?

In iTunes, go to Preferences > Devices and check "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically." Then, connect your iPhone and select it in iTunes. Go to the "Info" pane, scroll to the bottom, and select the items that you want overwritten.

How can I set up two iPhones with the same contact, photos, music etc... but a different sim card and phone number. They will both be my phones, but one will be for use in other countries.

Phone A = phone with information you want duplicated
Phone B = phone that you want to copy from A
Backup Phone A.
Wipe Phone B using these instructions. What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Phone B should be on the 'Hello' screen. Do not swipe it. Launch iTunes. Plug in Phone B.
When iTunes asks if you want to set up as new phone or restore from backup, choose restore from backup of Phone A.
After this setup, any changes to one phone (i.e. adding a contact, downloading an app) will have to be manually duplicated on the second phone, if that is your desire). Making changes to one phone will not affect the other after setup.

HT1267 The Apple ID in my new IPhone is not the same as my ID . how can i sort this

Hi, The Users ID on My New IPhone Is not the same as my apple ID
How can I sort this ...

Got it!!!! A re-install is NOT the answer. You need to turn on individual notifications under Settings > Facebook > Push Notifications, BUT (and this is a big and confusing BUT) you also need to turn on global push settings under Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendards > Fetch New Data (and change the Push slider to 'on'). This doesn't sound like it makes sense, but I guess that the push slider under 'Mail, Contacts, Calendars' is actually for ALL push notifications on iPhone, and not just Mail, Contacts and Calendar apps!

Synced times in ical between iphone and Macbook not the same

I have tried syncing my ical to my iphone using itunes and the times on my iphone are not the same as my ical. for example 1.30 pm for an appointment in my ical reads as 4.00am and the next day on my iphone calendar. How do I fix this?

Are both the iPhone and your Mac set to the same (local) time zone? Do you have Time Zone support turned on in iCal Preferences and in iPhone > Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar?
