How can my program download all-purpose info like nation names, ZIP codes, etc?

WHAT I HAVE:
Visual Basic 2010, .NET 4.0, WinForms
MY PROBLEM:
I'm writing a VB WinForms app that keeps track of social contacts, and allows users to specify info like their social contact's country and/or ZIP/Postal code. I'd like to know if there are tools that my program can use to download
lists of nations' names, of valid ZIP/Postal codes, etc.--and which tool is best for the purposes of my programs. What do you recommend?
Robert Gustafson

Your first problem is to find a source of the data. A quick search suggested the
Universal Postal Union website. You would have to try downloading their database and pay around with it to see if it is useful to you.
Once you have found your data, you will need to decide if it is convenient for your program to download and use at run time, or if you need to download all the data in advance and format it in a way to make it easier for your program to use.

All my contacts, photos, app information, videos and messages have gone. I don't know where they are on my computer and I want to know how I can restore them back on my iphone. Thanks, looking forward to your reply

In the iCloud preference pane, sign in to the same account you use on the other devices, if you haven't already done that. Then check the box marked Contacts.

With an install CD, you boot from the CD by holding down the C key at startup. Then go to "drive setup" and format the drive, choosing the option to zero data once.

My daughter has somehow figured out how to register for her own Apple ID but is very underage. She is not giving me the correct info for me to get into her email. She has downloaded some apps that I would not allow. How can I recover her Apple ID info?

No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.

Apple's official advice is here... HT2905 - How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls.
Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created. If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.
(If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed)

Thank you so much

If you want seperate accounts for managing apps and purchasing content, basically yes, you need two account and would need to repurchase. However, if you just want seperate ID for iMessgae, icloud and such, you can do that and still continue sharing the same Id for apps and itunes.

You should have been syncing your contacts to your computer regularly. Just sync them back ot the iphone from your computer.

All my iCloud photos are downloading to one of my computers, but only the last month's worth to another. How can I get them all to download to both computers?

All my iCloud photos are downloading to one of my computers, but only the last month's worth to another. How can I get them all to download to both computers?

When you on photo stream you will only get photos from the last 30 days (plus future photos added to your stream). That's because they only remain in iCloud for 30 days.
To get the old photos on your computer, import them using your usb cable, as explained here: iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer.

How can I shut off all of the pop-up windows for all the Firefox updates?

How can I shut off all of the pop-up windows for all the Firefox and Thunderbird updates?
Apparently now Mozilla creates new versions of their browser and email apps every two weeks instead of just creating updates... I'm tired of all of the pop-up requests for these constant installation requests and all the problems that the new version installations create... I just want to use the software and be left alone.
I can't find a way to make Firefox and Thunderbird stop with the pop-up requests for new installations... is there a way to do this or has Mozilla just got it rigged so one can't just use the software without re-installing a new version every two weeks and running in to new plugin issues and missing features every time?
Help!
Thanks,

Is it possible that her computer is infected with malware.
Do a malware check with several malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.
Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
All these programs have free versions.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

How can get emails on all devices?

How can get emails on all devices? When I read an email on my mac, my iphone doesn't download it. How can I change that setting?? I need to have all emails and all my devices!

It sounds like your using a POP3 email account versus IMAP. With a POP3 account if you do not have the settings configured to leave email on the server the problem you describe will occur. With Outlook 2010 (on a PC for example) you can go into the account settings and configure to leave email on the server. That way both devices will see the email. Check help for your Mac email program for instructions...
http://www.serverintellect.com/support/email/outlook-leave-on-server/
A better solution is if your email provider uses IMAP. IMAP sync email folders between multiple devices. Meaning any device will receive the email, all sent email can be seen on the devices. If you delete email from one device the email is deleted from all the other devices. Check with your email provider to see if they offer IMAP services.
If they do not your choices are to 1) configure email on the Mac as illustrated in the link above or 2) change email providers to something like Gmail or Outlook.com (as examples).
Also see this for the iPad...

FWIW I use Cox IMAP email and fully sync email between a Win 8.1 Update 1 laptop, a Win 7 desktop, an iPad 4, an iPhone 4 and an iPhone 5S.

How can i clean off all my third party applcations

How can i clean off all my third party applacations from the internet?

Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS. Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, Easy Find, instead. Download Easy Find at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder. Usually with the same name as the program or the developer. The item generally has a ".pkg" extension. Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
There are also several shareware utilities that can uninstall applications:
AppZapper
Automaton
Hazel
CleanApp
Yank
SuperPop
Uninstaller
Spring Cleaning
Look for them at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
