How do I get my contact and calendar data brought back from iCloud and reinstated in Outlook on my PC?
I just accepted Apple's kind invitation to synchronize my Outlook contacts and calendar with their iCloud storage. I foolishly accepted the invitation only to discover that iCloud didn't synchronize my data but stole it without any warning as to what it was going to do. Does anyone know how I can recover my data and put it back onto Outlook on my PC? I need to be able to access it when I'm offline, which I can't do if it's all hidden away in the iCloud. Besides that, any new contacts that I add don't automatically get added to iCloud. The whole arrangement makes a mockery of the concept of "synchronization".
Your data is in Outlook, in the iCloud account instead of the local (Personal Folders) account.

Dear wise & wondeful people:
How can I get missing contacts, notes, calendar dates and reminders that are just on my old iphone onto the iCloud for transfer to my new iPhone upgrade? Half of my contacts, notes, ect. were on my iCloud so have happily moved to my new iPhone but the rest are completely resistant. For example, on my iCloud I have 14 missing contacts starting with the letter A alone, however they are happily viewable on my old iPhone 4S and won't budge over into the iCloud.
There are also 3 notes missing yet still acessible on my onld iPhone 4S, the list goes on.
Your help would be most appreciated. Thank you so much.

How do I get features to show up in General Settings like iCloud and FaceTime and Location services to show up for Siri?
SADLY not as i downloaded an upgrad to my original PAGES/
i have in the meantim had to open www.icloud. then from there import the file that i am working on and then check on ipad if it uploaded/ yes it did.
but what a waste of time as it doesn not save any changes done automatically back in the cloud....
i am now downloading the new LION and hope that it will fix the problem
i cant find any other way. I was lead to believe that you wrote, it saved automatically, on to the cloud, you then opened anohter device in anotother country even, and the new file was there, waiting, in its latest version.......
and the same magic was supposed to happen in reverse.
It doesn't/
if i have to open a browser, go to www.icloud....why on earth did they not just leave us an icon to drop it in in that case?
I hope the new lion will help resolve the isssue/
any other ideas> keep em coming...thank you so much. -
How do I unlock mac? Someone hacked my account and I wiped my device from iCloud, and now I ask for a four digit code ignition Mac. How do they proceed in that way to unlock my Mac?
Settings>general>resets>erase all content and settings.
That will put it back to its out of the box state. Set it up with your own apple Id. -
if someone stole your ipod and deleted your apple id from icloud and u don't know the serial number. What can u do?
To delete your iCloud account from Settings>iCloud they have to enter your ID password.
The can place the iPod in Recovery mode and they restore the iPod but they will have to enter your iCloud ID and PW to activate the iPod.
lost/stolen
No app on the iPod is required.
- If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected, on a computer browser go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up or continue to show off-line.
- You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
iCloud: Erase your device
iCloud: Use Lost Mode
- If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
- Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
- There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

We are EXTREMELY sensitive to corporate data and we wish to force compliance to our standards. We understand people need to back up THEIR data, but we are not willing to allow them to backup OUR data. We define OUR data to be any data that is entered into our Corporate Mail environment (Exchange 2007). Is there a way to allow for backups to either iCloud or iTunes that does not back up Exchange Contacts, Mail, Calendar, Tasks, etc. ?
We are using Mobile Iron which provides a way to disable BackUp via iPhone profiles being distributed, but we wish to allow people the ability to backup their content, again, just not ours. And we've seen some very similar threads.
We have noticed that the backups do not backup Mail and Calendar items, but it does backup Contacts. That's the sticking point.
Any help would be most appreciated. This is a major concern.OK, sounded like a good suggestion, perhaps it only appeared the data was being backed up, but in reality the connection was being made and the contacts were some how syncing back w/ the cached credentials restablishing sync with the server. That would not have explained why messages and calendar items didn't resync; but I was willing to take it for a test spin. Wiped device, changed password in AD (so that it couldn't sync), began restore, and after restore with AD password changed prior to restore, the two test Exchange contacts were regrettably on my phone. Further test the reasonable theory of maybe credentials are being restored and the only contact data is being actually synced to get the data back on the phone, I added a third contact.
Now just to be belt and suspenders (to make sure something isn't happening at the restore where it get's the contact information at that exact window of time), I am wiping my again to see if the third contact (that's in my exchange contacts on the server) makes it to my device possibly during the sync, but I'm pretty sure what is happening is that he contact is making it "or being" some how categorized as "phone" data as opposed to Exchange data and being backed up there erroneously. For instance if you were to create a contact on an iPhone prior to establishing a sync relationship with the exchange server, it would take that contact and create that contact on your exchange server for you so that your "phone" data and your "exchange" data (as it relates to contacts at least) are in sync.
If you grant this assumption, then, when syncing Exchange data, the "phone" data is being created. When the back up takes place, I believe there is no distinction or bifurcation of these two data types. Phone data is backed up with no rhyme or reasoning related to its history or origin of creation (i.e. where it came from), it's not a contact from Exchange, it's just a contact. I believe Apple needs to tattoo Exchange contacts in some fashion or provide a "transparency" kind of paradigm or model used for calendars, where you can see two sources intermingled in a view, but they are truly not (you just see all).
Apple has indicated they understand the severity of this and are looking into it, but if anyone else has any insight or profiles not discussed on

Had an iPhone 4, lost it, bought a 4s, got stolen. Now I bought another iPhone 4, tried to sync it with itunes, I only get the data up to the last day I used the old iphone 4, all data, texts, photos, calendar during the use of the 4s no longer shows on my phone when I sync it with itunes
When you say that it recognizes both phones are you sure you aren't just seeing both backups? iCloud should back up your new phone if you have iCloud Backup turned to On in Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup. But you may still have the old backup stored in your account as well when you check in Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage on the Backups list. If you no longer need the backup of your old phone, tap it and then tap Delete Backup.

How do I get started creating an app that retrieves photos from Flickr and creates a mosaic?
I'm working to develop a wallpaper application for desktops, tablets & smartphones. What I need to do is the following:
1) Get a little user input (this will be a web or app front end).
2) Retrieve N (50-200) random photos from a particular Flickr set (handled on a Mac server interfacing with Flickr).
3) The hard part... assemble the photos into a mosaic that matches the dimensions of the client application. Again, this is done on a Mac server, using either available Mac software & AppleScript or standard Unix tools available or installable on a Mac server.
4) Send the output photo back to the web or app client.
Steps 1 & 4 are where the user will interface, and I figure I'll get to that part later. What I'd like to do is start figuring out what I need to complete tasks 2 & 3. I'll probably poke around Flickr for task 2 help. Task 3 is purely handled on the Mac server. I have XCode installed and experience with HTML and writing very simple software in Perl, Fortran & a little AppleScript, but zero experience in XCode.
Thanks for any advice.To stop the Cannon software from doing the import read the Cannon software manual
To have iPhoto do it go to the iPhoto preferences and set the preference for action when a camera is connected to launch iPhoto

hey guyz plz help me
Welcome to the Apple Community Louis.
There shouldn't be any reason why you can't back up without iOS7. If it's available to you, back up to iTunes is better than iCloud. -
How to insure that contacts and calendar are NOT synced with ICloud?
Hello,
I do not understand, why it is not possible anymore to sync your contacts and calendar data between your mac book and your mobile devices using USB cable.
I also heard that with Maverick and Itunes 11.1.2 you can not sync anything using USB anymore, is that true?
Why is it not possible to let the customer decide how to sync their data? Why not leaving both options?
In case it is true that with Maverick and Itunes 11.1.2 you are not able to sync using USB anymore, does anybody know a good app to sync your photos and address data between your computer and mobile devices?
How can I insure that my contacts and calendar data are NOT automatically synced with ICloud?
Yesterday I synced some Photos from my macbook to my IPad and wondered why I had the photos twice. I realized that my IPad had ICloud enabled, after disabling ICloud one picture folder (Photostream) was gone. What do do to avoid that my MacBook is sending Photos to ICloud?
However, when I opened ICloud today, I did not find photos, but I found some address data from my MacBook in the Cloud.
I do not want to have my contacts and calendar data anywhere else on a server.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks HarkConnect your phone to your computer using the USB power cable that you charge your phone with.
Launch iTunes, it will go thru the normal sync back up progress bar thing at the top, let it finish.
Then
double click on the phone in the left side bar then click INFO at the top of that pane, it will allow you select what you want to sync (contacts,calendar,etc) make your selections and click apply, then click sync. There buttons along the top for different functions (Movies, Apps, etc) just make sure that you do not have anything checked (like your whole music library) that will not fit on the phone. -

Our exchange server crashed and we lost all contact and calendar data. We found an app to get the contacts off of people's phone to import but can't find the same for calendar. How do I get my calendar info off my phone and in to new exchange server?
You'd have to think through this, but it seems like if you are using Outlook, and the items vanished from the Outlook client as well as the server,that you could re-populate Outlook using iTunes.
