Do the merge address and calendar options create duplicates?

I want to sync my iPod touch with my new MacBook, in which I have mostly the same addesses and appointments that are already in my iPod. If I choose the merge command when I sync them, will I be left with hundreds of duplicates or will the software see that identical files only appear once in each platform?

That's what merge means (combine to form a single entity). Read how it works here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1296

It used to be that when I created a pdf from a word or publisher document, hyperlinks worked fine. Now I cannot get them to work unless the text displayed for the link is the complete address and it all appears on one line. Why?

You can print to the Adobe PDF printer, but that only creates links that Acrobat or Reader recognize as such. That is the reason for needing the entire URL on one line. It is not actually an embedded link, but one created by Acrobat on the fly. With OFFICE 2013 you have two choices: 1. create the PDF with the print to Adobe PDF and then add the links in Acrobat so that they are complete or 2. I think the WORD save as PDF or XPS will create the PDF with links, but not sure. If so, that would be the quickest solution for you, but be aware of potential problems with the MS plugin.
Of course, the third option is to upgrade to XI which can be done with AA 9. You will probably not be eligible for a for an upgrade to whatever the next version will be.

use Disk Utility and Verify Permisions then fix and Verify Disk and fix, this should fix it.

My wife and I share an Ipad.   We each have our own email address and calendar.   What is the best way for us to backup both accounts (we currently only have 1 ICloud account)?   Thanks for any help!    Alan

My wife and I each have our own email address and calendar. These are on one IPad.   The Ipad has a single ICloud account.
What's the best way to backup both Calendars, etc?   Does ICloud automatically back up every account on the same IPad? (I checked ICloud, but I could only find my stuff.)
Thanks for any help!
Alan

First, you need to understand that there's a difference between "syncing" and "backup". Backup is the saving of content and settings, where syncing is the bidirectional transfer of content for an account to a web-based server (like iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc.)
If you see your calendar in your iCloud account, that implies that you have set up your iCloud account to host (sync) your calendar, and perhaps contacts, email, and notes. An iCloud account can only sync one user's information at a time so it is intended to support a single user. You can have more than one iCloud account, and you can even have more than one iCloud account on the same device (but one has to be primary, and the secondary iCloud has limited capabilities), but a single iCloud account only supports a single user's content.
Backup is the saving of your device's content and settings to use in case you need to recover these things, but you can't see the contents of your backup (just the size and device name). You can backup more than one device to iCloud and you can backup to iCloud or you can backup to your computer, or both (one at a time though, you have to choose).
So, if your wife has her own email and calendar she can certainly do that in parallel to whatever account(s) you have for email and calendar. But if you have only one iCloud account then only one of you can use it for email, calendar, etc. But the backup of these accounts is really just a backup of the device's settings that link the device to these accounts. For example, if she uses Gmail then the backup of the iPad only backs up the fact that your iPad is set up to use her account, it does not backup the account itself (the content of her account is saved and preserved on Google's servers, not your device's backup).
Does that make better sense?

Changing your Apple ID to your current, working email address will not create another Apple ID, it will only change it to your working email address.

I can't get the iCloud Contacts and Calendar folders to appear in Outlook 2010 using the iCloud Control Panel.

I can't get the iCloud Contacts and Calendar folders to appear in Outlook 2010 using the iCloud Control Panel. Also the datafile share which ends in .aplzod is not created in Outlook. The Contacts and Calendar are sent to iCloud (verified on iCloud.com) but the iCloud folders are not created in Outlook in the Contacts and Calendar navigation panes.   I get a message toward the end of the sync process indicating that there was an unspecified error. I'm using the newest version of the iCloud Control Panel, the 32 bit version of Outlook 2010, Windows 7 64 bit, an iPhone 3GS, and the latest version of iTunes. Any ideas how to complete the sync process to the end?

Pretty much the same for me: Windows 7 64-bit, Outlook 2010, iCloud Control Panel 1.0.1, iPhone 3GS. Error report at end of setup process is shown below, and has been emailed. Any help please?
Your setup couldn't be started because of an unexpected error.

Did you try the iPhone syncing options in iTunes?
Click on your iPhone in iTunes, and check under the Info section where you can choose which app to sync with. Is Windows Live Mail an option?

HT1692 Have recently installed itunes and outlook on a new computer. Have multiple email accounts set up in Outlook tho only use contacts and calendar in relation to one of these. Cannot sync itunes with the correct contacts and calendars, Help!

My new computer is 64-bit running Windows 7 pro, SP1 and Microsoft Office 2010 Pro Plus 32-bit
My phone is a 4S runing iOS 6.1.3
Very frustrated now that I have recently installed itunes and outlook on this new computer. Everything worked perfectly ok on my laptop which was also 64-bit Windows 7 and running 32-bit Microsoft Office 2010 Pro. I have multiple email accounts set up in Outlook tho only use contacts and calendar in relation to one of these. Cannot sync itunes with the correct contacts and calendars, when I sync the calendar and contacts are empty. Not sure if there is any way to point itunes to particular address books and calendars.
I have installed and uninstalled itunes 3 times and thank goodness have a backup
Can anyone help please?
thanks in anticipation

I had my home computer set up to sync to work's Exchange server. It worked well, but I didn't like seeing work email messages and other programs trying to sync with my default Outlook folder, which was then the Exchange (& work related) .ost file. I know there are various ways to manage those problems using filters, view, subfolders, etc., but it was a hassle for me. I think it could work well for many other folks.
For now, I have published my work calendar and subscribed to that calendar on my home computer. So I have view only access to my calendar on my home computer (and I can add/edit calendar items on my iPad (or Outlook Web Access) when away from work). This is not quite what I wanted, but it may work.
It almost makes me long for the days when I used my Windows Mobile Treo to sync back and forth between exchange at work and outlook at home (but had many sync conflicts as a result).

HT4915 How do you stop syncing address and calendar to iCloud? I only want to sync from my computer to iPhone.

How do you stop syncing address and calendar to iCloud? I only want to sync from my computer to iPhone. This is because I cannont upgrade to Lion and I do not want to get duplicate contacts when I sync from the computer 10.6.8 to my iPhone iOS5. You should not upgrade to Lion upless you have 4GB of ram. Lion does not support rosita so all your old programs will not funtion and you have to repurchase all old software the is working fine.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Settings > iCloud, turn off contact and calendar syncing.

How do you correct the merging of contacts, calendars, etc with other members of your family on your account?

How do you correct the merging of contacts, calendars, etc with other members of your family on your account?

Wow!
I'm not going to be of much use regarding answers but I sure am going to watching this post like a hawk for any replies. My package is a slightly diluted version of this and I do find the BBtalk and data limits hard to make the most of as well.
If nothing else this totally highlights how complicated BT have managed to make their packages.
A cynic would assume that they are trying to catch us out at every step and for us to either be overspending or not really getting the moneys worth.

How to synchronize Address Books and Calendar Books in Mavericks 10.9.2, I am unable to synchronize my Address and Calendar Books informations with my iPhone 4 via iTunes

Since I updated my MacBook Pro's OS X version 10.6.8 to Mavericks 10.9.2, I am unable to synchronize my Address and Calendar Books informations with my iPhone 4 via iTunes. What do I need to do to update these data ?

I cannot synchronize the Address Book and Calendar data, even by means of iCloud or similar servers. It appears these data are not selected automatically during synchronization. How can one select Address Book and Calendar Book in Mavericks for synchronization ?

Getting the IP address and port number and placing it in a window

Hi Everyone,
I have written the code which gives the system time in a window. But I need also to have the Internet address and the port number of the client in the window. the TimeserverRF considers incoming DatagramPackets as a request for the current time, if the client wishes to receive the current time from TimeserverRF, it has only has to send a DatagramPacket to TimeserverRF.
I am not sure how to do this writing DatagramPackets .
I have the TimeClient class application. Timeclient should send the Internet address and the port on which it is running.
Do You have any ideas.
// the code for system time.
import javax.swing.*;
public class Window1 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
JFrame win = new JFrame("TimeServer running on port 9999");
JTextArea tA = new JTextArea(1, 30);
win.getContentPane().add(tA);
win.pack();
win.setVisible(true);
String s1; // initialise variables
TimeData t1; // TimeData object initalise to t1 variable
t1 = new TimeData(System.currentTimeMillis()); // start of loop body
s1 = t1.toTimeString(); // system time held sring s1
tA.append("Sent "); tA.append(s1); // Prints statement and time in Frame
}

The email address and password entered are not in our records.

My bad if I am posting this is the wrong section, I have never had to use the BB forums.
I went to print out my certificate last weekend and was unable to log on. I tried to reset my password but got a message
"The email address and password entered are not in our records. Please check for accuracy and try again. If you are not a registered user, please create an account. If you think there is an issue with your account, please contact Customer Care at 888-BESTBUY (888-237-8289).
At first I thought it was a glitch over the weekend so I waited. I still cannot log onto my account. I just made this account so I can get some help.
Does anyone know of a solution where I won't have to call the hotline?
BTW if it helps a moderator, the email I used to create this forum account is the same as my BB reward email
Thank you

Good morning cannotlogin, and welcome to the forum,
If your BestBuy.com and My Best Buy™ accounts are linked, then you should be able to login to BestBuy.com and view your My Best Buy™ account information. I am going to manually request that your BestBuy.com password be reset, so you should receive an email shortly with a link to reset the password. That link is only valid for two hours; however, once the password has been reset, you should be able to login to BestBuy.com.
If after resetting your password you are still unable to login to BestBuy.com, please let me know or feel free to send me a private message and I will take a second look. You can send a private message by clicking on the blue button located within my signature.
Thank you for connecting with us!

If you updated your existing account then try logging out of it on the iPad by tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPad. If you created a new account then any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can download updates to its apps.
