Downloading new 11.1 has removed my contacts and messed up my email

I downloaded the new 11.1 and now all my texts have numbers instead of contact names. My list of contacts is missing numbers and has emails listed instead of just names. My email has almost two thousand unread mail too. Very frustrating!

If your email has been hacked, immediately change your email password.
If data has gotten corrupted, restore from iCloud or your backup.

New software update has cleared my contacts and notes app no longer working

Help! I'm traveling and today when I turned on my phone getting off the plane, the s/w updated and all of my contacts are gone. i use the HTC People app, not google contacts. Also the Notes application no longer works, and comes up with an error to force close. Any ideas on reversing the s/w upgrade or getting my contacts back? Thank you.

If you were using Verizon's backup assitant you should be able to hit Menu | Settings | Accounts & Sync | add account and select backup assitant and it should prompt you for your pin number and restore your contacts. If you were not your only option for restore would be if you had backup software installed, or if you sync'ed using HTC Sync to outlook or some other program...I wish you the best of luck.

Just registered second phone and sync to first which has removed all contacts photos etc. How do I register as a second phone but share music?

You can't sync from phone to phone so please clarify what you're referring to.

Can i use a 2nd iphone if i install itunes on another user account.when i tried to create a second library i messed up both phones, the second one now has all my contacts and when it sends txts it either says its my other phone or email address

can i use a 2nd iphone if i install itunes on another user account.when i tried to create a second library i messed up both phones, the second one now has all my contacts and when it sends txts it either says its my other phone or email address. i can cope with the first phone and getting it back on itunes but dont want to syn the 2nd phone until i know it is independant of the other one. Does it matter that both phones use the same itunes store account?

Deleting the account on your phone only removes if from your phone. The account and it's data remain intact and doing so will not effect your daughter's phone.
To do this, first go to Settings>iCloud on your phone and turn any synced data (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off, and when prompted, choose to keep the data on the phone. When finished, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. Then set up a new iCloud account with a different Apple ID and turn any data you want to sync with iCloud (contact, calendars, etc.) back to On. This will upload your data to your new iCloud account.

How can i connect my iphone to a new itunes library without losing my contacts and photos ?

Is the new iTunes library on a different computer, or the same computer?
Are you concerned about photos that you have taken with the iPhone in the Camera Roll, or photos you have synced to the iPhone from your computer?
Contacts should be configured to sync with an app on your computer. You set this up in iTunes on the Info tab with the iPhone connected. You will not lose any contacts if the app on your computer has at least one contact.

Error message when connecting to iTunes says my new iPad 4 can't be connected as it requires version 10.7 or later. Surely a new iPad already has the latest version, and if it doesn't how do I get it?

Not the iPad - your computer must be running iTunes 10.7 in order to sync. It has nothing to do with iTunes on the iPad.
You can download iTunes for your computer here.

Downloaded new IoS 6 at my iphone 4 and cant sync calendar, conacts etc

Downloaded new IoS 6 at my iphone 4 and cant sync calendar, conacts etc

I'm having the same problem. Although iTunes says it is syncing Calendars and Contacts the Calendars are not being synced (I haven't checked Contacts since I don't make lots of changes to them.)
It also does not appear to be backing up to my desktop (at least not each time) - I just did a sync and the backup date is over 30 minutes ago.
This is very worrisome.
(And I am not using iCloud.)

All backup/sync files for Iphone lost on old PC, anyway to sync with new PC without losing music, photos, contacts and texts?

Make sure your new computer is authorized in iTunes. Disable autosync in itunes, connect your iphone, right click on it in the device list and choose backup.
This will save data, pictures and settings to itunes. See what's included in this backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
Transfer your purchases the same way to copy all apps and bought media from the Store to your computer.
Set up at least one contact and event on your computer to be able the merge your calendars and contacts after your device got wiped during the first sync.
The rest of the data can be restored from the backup you made.
Restoring: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
Apps can be downloaded again for free, in the US music as well. Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

Redirected to Store and searched for The Fish. Description came up, pressed Download, message: you have previously purchased this book, go to Purchased and press Download. Followed instructions and message: you have previously purchased....... I'm in a loop.
Assistance requested

Hi there.
Thank you very much for your quick reply, it's really appreciated.
No need to apologize, I actually found the phrase "If your iPad ever craps the bed" amusing under the circumstances
I checked the list of installed apps like you suggested (Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Show all apps) but this problem app is not in the list. I have also swiped down on the home screen to search for it, but again it does not show.
While it has not let me download the app (and I just tried it again) it has helped me to eliminate a few things from the list of what to try, and I can definitely conclude that it has not downloaded.
I guess I need to fire up my PC and download it / sync my iPad.
Thanks again for your help

nothing will be screwed up.
but, if it makes you feel better, do this:
download the iTunes standalone installer
reboot into safe mode
run a permission repair session using disk utility
run the installer
let the Mac reboot normally

I can not download news / information articles in text. Why and how do I fix it??

I could download news or information articles in text and then change the text of the article to present information as I wanted/needed.
What I get now is a page of continous text with no breakes or paragraphs etc. I also can not manipulate or make any changes to what is downloaded.
What happened and how do I fix the problem??
This problem happened close to the time that FireFox last updated.

* "Clear the Cache": Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

Has anyone got Contact and Calendar sharing to work?

I cannot believe I've been duped again. This borders on false advertising as far as I am concerned. How is it that Apple can connect and share Contact and Calendars with Exchange beautifully, but can't create this functionality in their own Server? Maybe it can be configured via the command line, but if I wanted to do that, I wouldn't be a Mac User. I am an Apple Consultant and every small business I service wants this more than any other function. They don't want a stupid WIki page, they want to use iCal and Address Book. Ultimately, I have to recommend MS Small Business Server. An absolutely pathetic situation.

BrianFL -
I guess it depends on your needs. I run a shared mac-only office environment and came up with a few solutions with Lion Server. (minding that I don't interact with Exchange at all)
I'm in an environment where all users are authenticated to the Lion Server
== iCal ==
1. Delegated Locations & Resources: From the Server App, with iCal Server on, you can create Location / Resource calendars, and then designate who has the authority to manage the calendar. For our purposes, I created one Calendar, and then the the delegate, I added the apropriate use group. From there - each user has creates a CalDAV with their user cred's in iCal - and then (this is the important part) Select the created account - and select the calendar(s) you wish to view in the delegation tab. From there - that one Resource calendar can house any number of calendars inside it.
The only downside here - is that iOS doesn't really deal with delegated calendars well - so you won't be able to see shared calendars you've setup.
Create a phantom account. This isn't quite as clean, but you could create a dummy user on the Lion Server - and then have users all create accounts in iCal using the same Cred's. Not as secure though.
An Upside is that iOS devices will be able to get at these.
== Address Book ==
Unfortunately, Here, I've had to rely on a phantom user account called "OfficeShared" which contains groups, contacts etc. that everyone in the office shares. I'd be interested if anyone had any tips here. (Keeping in mind that Open Directory may very well be a possible option if you're dealing with MS server)
Of course, if you're using Microsoft Applications, your MS Small Business server will always be ideal - but I've found OSX server to be a no-maintenance, no babysitting solution for an office full of Macs.

Recently my macbook charger died and I purchased from a third party seller a new charger that has the same amperage and voltage listed, but different model number. my question is should I be worried, or is it all right?

So recently my model number A1184 charger for my mac book pro died and I purchased a new charger online. They sent me a different charger, a model number S165365, that has the same amperage and voltage listed. my concern is whether it is okay to swap one out for the latter?

Is this your charger you got?

I suppose it's OK, though if I were you, I get original stuff even if it's expensive.
