Going mad! Please someone I want to delete all my calendars - and yes ....

My Iphone has somehow in addition to a work and a home calendar for my mobileme account - ended up with 12 (yes 12) sep. calendars under UNTITLED
I want to delte them but cannot so far - tried so many forums and solutions none which have worked.
I sync my Iphone via my pc as I wanted to use Outlook with it.
Can someone please help before I give up with calendars and sync in general

So what are you using at the moment? If it's iCal + MobileMe the best solution would be to wipe/delete the MobileMe account on your iPhone and set it up again.
If it's Outlook, Create a new calendar in Outlook and make sure it has blank records, sync it over via iTunes so the blank Calendar erases the current set of records on your iPhone, then sync back over the original Calendar.
Tell me if that works.

Help: iTunes wants to delete all my music and videos off of my iPhone!

I usually keep the option to manually manage music and videos on my iPhone. I only use 1 pc to transfer music and movies to and from my iPhone. Recently for some reason when I launched iTunes, an error message kept poping up repeatedly saying "The iTunes Library file cannot be saved." I fixed the error message by adjusting the user access privileges to my music folder.
Now my music library is completely empty in iTunes, but that shouldn't be a problem because I manually manage my music and videos. However, when I checked the iPhone page in iTunes, the checkbox for manually manage music and videos is unchecked.
So I went to go check the check box so that I can continue to add some more music and videos to my iPhone, however a message box pops up saying:
"The iPhone "my iPhone" is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library?"
I have about 12 gigs worth of music and videos which I have carefully hand picked over a period of about 3 months and now iTunes wants to delete all of it because it thinks I want to "sync with another library". I only hope someone can understand how frustrating this is for me. All I want to do is continue to be able to add music and videos to my iPhone without having to erase months worth of work putting the current music I have on there. Can anyone help me?

Thanks for your reply. I don't keep all of my music in the iTunes' designated music folder. I don't like the way iTunes reorganizes my songs and I keep all my music in my own self organized music folders as I don't use iTunes as my primary media application. Not to mention allot of my files come from all different corners of my computer's hard drive. It would literally take months to go through over 20 gigs of media files to pick out the songs I have in my iPhone library to rebuild an iTunes library. Like i said, I don't even use iTunes other than to transfer files to my iPhone. I thought the purpose of manually managing the files was so you don't have to sync it with the iTunes library but now it won't give my that option without requiring me to delete everything on my phone I worked so hard on.
What I don't understand is logically or technically why iTunes HAS to delete all the content off of my iphone. Who's decision in the Apple's software engineering department was to require the one's iPhone to be erased if someone loses their iTunes library? Its frustrating because it makes no sense and I feel as if the software is punishing me for reasons I don't understand by threatening to delete all my content off my phone. Is there absolutely no way to transfer my music to my iPhone without deleting everything currently on and completely rebuilding my music library from scratch?

I want to delete all my contacts and resync..how do i do that?

i want to delete all of my contacts and resync to my yahoo ..how do i do that?

Hi,
I would imagine the best way would be to
connect your Ipad to your mac or pc
in the info page check the box next to "sync address book contacts"
tick "Yahoo address book contacts"
scroll to the bottom and under "advanced" check the box for contacts
sync
I strongly suggest a backup before you do all of this.
Let me know.

Itunes iOS 5.0.1 update wants to delete all my apps and media. Think I have synced to a different computer

today I synced my iphone, it was updated with new iOS 5.0.1. I also changed my old apple ID to my e-mail address and made a new password as suggested.
I have two libraries in itunes on my computer. one for my iphone and one for my itouch. They are different. The sync and software update with my iphone went fine. But when I opened up the library for my itouch and tried to update and sync it I got this message.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Updating to iOS 5.0.1 will delete all of the apps and media. including iTunes Store purchases. on you iPod touch. To preserve your content. apply this update on the computer where you sync apps. music. videos. and photos.
Updating on this computer will only preserve contacts, calendars, text message, and other settings. Please do not interrupt the update, which may take an hour or longer to complete. iTunes will verify the software update with Apple.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I cancelled out of that. I have never synced my itouch with another computer. What can I do to prevent itunes from deleting everything on my itouch?

Hi,
Have you backed up your iPod's data to your computer/iCloud? If so, it should be fine to update.
Also, it is possible (If you have iOS 5.0 already) to update iOS on your iPod without the need for iTunes: Check your iPod has more than 50% battery, open 'Settings' on your iPod and tap General > Software Update and iOS 5.1 should be there for you to download and install. That is how I did it and it only takes 5 minutes.
I hope this helps!

I want to delete all my photos and songs without reformatting

I've started a synch with my computer which I had to abort now I want to clear all the partially downloaded songs and photos and start again. Can I delete all these items without performing a total reset or having to delete them individually?

No.
To prepare a Mac for Sale.
If you have Downloaded and Upgraded to Lion See...
Here is an excerpt of the SLA; the Lion license (purchased from MAS) is NOT transferable. The SLA is quite clear:
B. If you obtained your license to the Apple Software from the Mac App Store or on Apple-branded physical media, it is not transferable. If you sell your Apple-branded hardware to athird party, you must remove the Apple Software from the Apple-branded hardware beforedoing so, and you may restore your system to the version of the Apple operating systemsoftware that originally came with your Apple hardware (the “Original Apple OS”) andpermanently transfer the Original Apple OS together with your Apple hardware, provided that:(i) the transfer must include all of the Original Apple OS, including all its component parts,printed materials and its license; (ii) you do not retain any copies of the Original Apple OS, fullor partial, including copies stored on a computer or other storage device; and (iii) the partyreceiving the Original Apple OS reads and agrees to accept the terms and conditions of theOriginal Apple OS license.
Now Proceed...
Boot from the original OS installer disk and do an Erase & Install.
When the Mac reboots into Mac Setup Assistant Quit and shut it down.
When the New Owner Boots it up it's a brand new Mac... just like when you got it.
( The Original Install Disc(s) should also be included with the sale )

I want to delete all of icloud and reinstall it. How?

For more than a week, iCloud has been deleting all of my emails as soon as received. I have spent MANY hours on the phone to Apple support.
I'm told they can fix it within 7 business days!!!
Can't I just wipe the system and start fresh?

Try resetting iCloud mail ...
Open System Preferences > iCloud
Switch Mail off then back on.
See if mail still gets deleted.

I have been looking for half an hour and I cannot find the bookmarks organizer. I want to delete ALL my bookmarks and I cannot do it. They are not in a folder so I cannot delete the folder. This interface is terrible.

No bookmarks menu. No relevant options on the "firefox button." No relevant context menus. Where is the bookmarks organizer? Not the toolbar on the left, I cannot use that to delete hundreds of bookmarks not in a folder.

"Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks" has been renamed to "Show All Bookmarks" in Firefox 4 and later.

I had to do a complete system restore on my computer and now I am having issues getting all my music back. It's telling me that my account is in use with a different user but I'm the only user on my computer. When I go to sync it, it wants to delete all.

When in recovery mode you can't backup the iPod.
You will have to restore via iTunes. See:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Sorry... but... No Sync + No Backup = No photos.

I want to delete all my existing mail accounts and reset

I have three mail accounts. I want to delete all these accounts and set up a new account. How do I do this?

Shootist007 wrote:

I may add that this is true, but "only" for mails stored on the Mac, not for the mails stored on the server.
So, if it's IMAP accounts, it should not matter unless mails have been moved to mailboxes "On My Mac". Really careful with POP accounts if the mails in there matter!
Anyway, at least archiving mails before deletion, or even better, a proper backup, is mandatory.

Yes i've tried all of that. I've turned it all the way on and off and erased all of my music and put it back on and nothing works. And with the breaking up CDs and putting into compilation categories i have already fixed all of that stuff. It's fine it just doesn't show up in the list of artists. I can find the album in the songs category and the albums category it's just it doesn't show tha name of the artist. All of the other albums that i downloaded before i updated my itunes to th most recent update are fine. It's just the two that i downloaded afterwards. Thanks for trying though.

If I delete all my photos in my camera roll will it still be in my iCloud ??? And I made a photo stream for pics of me and my friends is t in my iCloud ? I want to delete all my pictures but will it be in my iCloud ?

Don't rely on iCloud to back up your pictures. It's designed to sync them to your devices, not back them up. Photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days, allowing your devices enough time to download them. But if you ever lose your device, or have to replace it, any photos older than 30 days will no longer be in iCloud to download.
To keep your photos, import them to your computer using your usb cable while they are still in your camera roll, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083. After importing them, you will be given an option to delete them from your device.

Could someone please tell me how to delete all my many emails at once on my iPad 2? Thank you

Could someone please tell me hoe to delete all my many emails on iPad 2 all at once? Thank you

You can't delete them all at once on the iPad. You have to select them one at a time. Once the emails are in the trash, you can Delete All from there.
