Contacts that are not mine

Why do I keep getting contacts in my phone for people that I do not know.

There might be a slight glitch in the Facebook program and the setting which you are using to link your contacts. To fix this, I reccomend reinstalling Facebook, or if you go in your contact which you do not want, is there not a button at the bottom saying 'Delete Contact'? If non of these options work, try a reset in iTunes.

Hey Raffiecat,
Thanks for the question. If your iPod is setup to manually manage content, you can add content from multiple libraries:
Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod

When manually managing content, you can add content from multiple libraries to your iPod or iPad. Even when manually managing music, some content may be available from only one library at time. This includes all content on iPhone and video content on iPod and iPad.
You can also learn which content you can import to your new computer from your iPod:

Or, if you still have access to the previous computer, you can transfer your iTunes Library:

HT204088 I have purchases on my iTunes account that are not mine. Where could this be coming from?

I keep getting charged for purchases that are not mine. I don't know where they are coming from and I checked my childrens accounts. Where could they be coming from?

Hello there duxmania,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
I have a couple of recommendations for you here. First for the purchases that you did not authorize, I would reach out to the iTunes store support directly.
How to report an issue with your iTunes Store, App Store, Mac App Store, or iBooks Store purchase
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1933
Find the email receipt for your purchase.
Click Report a Problem under the app that is having the issue.
When prompted, enter the Apple ID and password you used to purchase the item, then click Report a Problem.
Click Report a Problem next to the item you are having an issue with.
From the Choose Problem dropdown menu, choose the appropriate issue.
Follow the onscreen instructions and—if prompted—type a description of the problem into the text field.
Click Submit to have your issue reviewed.
You may also want to change your Apple ID password.

Weird photos (gifs. jpg.) appearing in images that are not mine

When I look in images on my desktop mac there are weird gifs and jpgs that are not mine. Where did they come from and how do I get rid of them?

They may belong to the system, or to applications. The "All Images" search shows you images all across your hard drive, not just in your personal pictures folder. When you scroll down and click on an image in that search list, the status bar at the bottom of the window will tell you the path for that image. That will tell you what application it belongs to. Most of the time, you don't want to delete images that belong to the system or apps, since it can prevent things from working correctly.

My iPhone asks me to sign into apple id's that are not mine- how do I stop this?

My iPhone asks me often to put in a password for apple id's that are not mine. Some of the ones that pop up are for people that I don't even know. Why does this happen and how do I stop it? Thanks!

Hi Friend,
You must have all apps downloaded by your Apple ID, otherwise you will still facing this problem. Delete the apps you did not download by yourself and download them again. I will fix your problem.
By the way, your device is configurate with your Apple ID? Check it in: Settings>>iTunes Store and App Store
Hope it will be helpful

I can't purchase anything even though I redeemed an iTunes card for $15. Apple is asking to verify my credit card info, and also for answers to security codes that are not mine.

Okay so I just got an iPhone 5. My first iPhone. In the past I've had two different iPods, an iPod Touch 3rd Generation, and an iPad 2.
I only have 87 cents in my bank account so I paid cash for a $15 iTunes card so I could get some applications on my new iPhone 5. I realize that iTunes won't let me download updates or buy new applications when my bank account has a low or insufficient balance, so it will ask to verify the code on the back of the card. After entering the code, it says to please enter valid information. The information is valid, but won't be accepted because it has a low balance.
I tried selecting "None" as my payment options to see if that would allow me to make purchases using the $15 balance I just redeemed from the iTunes card. It doesn't seem to help the situation.
I went to contact Apple, but I had to schedule a call (this is the first time I've ever had to contact support for a problem - ever). I also sent in an email hoping I would get a response sooner. I want to play with my phone now, not in a few days when they can finally call me back...
While trying to figure out a solution to this, I ran into a couple of security questions that aren't even mine... They can't be because I don't have an answer for them. These security codes are not mine. I tried putting in an answer and it didn't work - obviously, because the questions don't apply to me. What the heck is going on Apple? I've never had so much trouble with your services before.
I'm not very happy right now.

Look, I understand I still need a card attached to the account. The problem is, it won't accept my card because I only have 87 cents in my bank account right now.
If I had known there would be so much trouble with the iTunes card, I would have just put the cash in my bank account in the morning instead of buying an iTunes card (I didn't expect the banks to be open on Thanksgiving of course).
Apple will only accept cards that have a balance. The balance is so small in my account that it won't accept it as a valid card.
I'm going to have to contact Apple anyway to reset the security questions. That's obvious. Your answers were not exactly helpful. You didn't tell me anything I don't already know, but thanks for trying to be helpful.

Method needed to identify Contacts that are not valid from the Comp Screen

Problem
My Company has 65k contacts in the system, we do not delete contacts that are no longer at company, as when we buy data our data in some cases will be more up to date that the third party data available on the market. This then means when a user looks at a company record and the related contacts, he has to hover the cusor over each of the contacts to check if they are valid or not.
Goal
When a user looks at the contacts linked to the company the following fields will be presnt:
Contact Valid
Contact Leave Date.
This will then mean the user will be able to see without looking which contacts are valid and which are not.
Problems
I have tried to create a contact page layout with the fields needed however the only fields avaiable are as follows:
Company ID
Company Name
Company Status
Contact ID
Contact Name
Contact Roles
Location
Primary
Can anybody help?

Thanks for the reply.
However I think I didn't make myself clear in my post in terms of the problem. The problem I have is that when a user looks at a company (account) record the user see the following information in relation to which of the available contacts to select "Primary,Last & First name,Job Title, Contact Role, Work Phone and Email". However none of these fields show if the contact is valid or if they have a leave date.
Both Contact Valid and Contact Leave date have been set up in the system within the contact record. I want to change the layout and have spent hours in the following screens and functions.
Page layout Management
Company/Contact Related Information layout
Related Information Setup
Company/Contact page layout
The problem is the screens/functions where I think I could add the two above mentioned fields end up with me turning the fileds into required or read only fields, and the section where I want to drag in the fields to display has the two fields missing.

How do I get updates that are not mine not to show up in mac app store?

I have updates in my updates in the mac app store that will not go away and they are not mine. They are someone else's that have someone else's apple ID. It is just a little strange that just all the sudden they pop up about two days ago. It is sort of annoying that these updates will not go away. Any help is well appreciated. Thanks!

Hi...
Unfortunately, it sounds like you are subject to pirated software.

When I plug in my ipod I into my computer I see songs that are not mine and it seems that my ipod is not being recognized.

When I plug my ipod into my computer and click on itunes, I get three songs listed in a library that is not mine. It does not seem to recognize my ipod.

Pete I was having a similure problem with my 5th Gen. I cut my losses and stress and restored my iPod to factory settings. It wiped the device clean, but with all my music in iTunes it put it all back on in a matter of 5 minutes. Yes you may loose some music, but oh well at least your device is working.

Ipod Touch 5th Generation has songs on it that are not mine

When my "Show All Music" setting is toggled to ON, my Ipod Touch 5th Generation will have several songs I don't own or recognize that is mixed in with my music. These songs are not downloaded to my device, but somehow the Cloud thinks that I own them and has them stored for me. I have checked my ITunes library on my computer but it doesn't show these songs there either. Where did these come from and how can I get them removed?

Are they the free U2 songs that Apple pushed to your for free?
If so, to remove them
Remove U2 Album
Otherwise:
- Unsync/delete all music and resync
To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Manage Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius

Security questions that are not mine

I'm trying to by a song on itunes. Telling me that I have NOT used this computer to buy before (have used it for years) Then I'm getting security questions that I have no idea what the answer could be so they are not my questions. How do I fix this?

Click here for information. If you can't reset them through the method described in that article or by sending yourself a rescue email(the email may take a few hours to arrive), contact the iTunes Store staff via the link in the 'Additional Information' section.
It isn't possible to create a rescue email address without correctly answering two of the questions. Nobody on these boards can reset them for you.

HT2486 TO MORE QUICKLY FIND CONTACT THAT ARE NOT FAMILIAR, CAN I DISPLAY THE ADDRESS BOOK IN A MORE OPEN FASHION, LIKE OUTLOOK "ADDRESS CARDS"

How many different views are there available in Address Book?
I can not find a way to display the raw alpha list or multiple cards within an alph letter
Thanks, I am new to Mac and learning the many limitations and some of the advantages.

Thanks very much for your reply.
I did see the ability to flip between the two levels of the data. However, that isn't the same thing as what could be done previously, and what I used to do/the functionality I'd like back.
Flipping back and forth between the two sets of pages makes it harder for how I worked because I make extensive notes about the contacts in the notes field. I need to see those notes to know if I want to move that contact to another group. So you would need to constantly flip back and forth when before it was just scrolling a list and dragging the contact when you saw one that needed to be added to a group.
Bottom line is without the third "window" or view to all three levels of the data open at the same time, much of what I need to do is very difficult now.
I don't have a small screen, and would like to be able to use it. I don't like the idea of having limits imposed and having to work around what used to be there. That is going backwards, not forward.

I'm trying to restore a new ipod but it keeps asking me for the passwords of itunes accounts that are not mine.

It is trying to restore my new ipod from the backup cloud, but it keeps asking me for the passwords of three different itunes accounts, two i know are my friends accounts and I don;t even know whoose the third is. I must have some of their music on my library or something, but it won't backup without these passwords it seems. Is there a way to get around this? I have the music in my Itunes library and can listen to it all I want and burn it on cds but I cant get it to go on my ipod without their passwords. Can i switch it and just have it sync to my computer and not this icloud? My other ipod didnt ask me for these passwords when I tried to sync it.

If you have music that was purchased on different iTunes accounts than the one you use, then you must provide the password, otherwise the tunes are not considered yours. You can turn off iCloud and just use the usual USB sync method. But I wonder whether you'll have the same problem?

Itunes has 111 albums that are not mine...

My main computer (i.e. where all of the physical files are) is Windows 7. I've turned on home sharing on that computer.
Downstairs is a Macbook Air. When opening up iTunes there, it doesn't see my library (it's always been iffy at best), but it's showing me 115 albums on my Macbook. In my entire life I've probably purchased 4 or 5 albums max from iTunes. In browsing through the other 111, these are albums I've never seen, never owned, and for the most part would never listen to. They are not physically on the Macbook or any other computer in the house.
I tried to reauthorize the Macbook in iTunes (even though it does show my Apple ID) but it just locks up.

To clarify, how many computers do you have ?
Windows 7, MacBook and MacBook Air?

So you’re on your MacBook Air and you open iTunes on it and view the Home Shared library of the MacBook?
Do any of these songs play?
There’s no “fixup” to the AppleID you need to worry about.
