How do I get Yahoo to stop deleting my contacts?

I have had Yahoo on my iPhone as long as I've had the phone (1 yr) and when I originally got the phone I entered each contact by hand directly into the phone. Then last weekend all of the phone numbers for my contacts randomly got deleted. I narrowed it down to an issue with the Yahoo contacts. Within Yahoo, however, I only have e-mail addresses and no phone numbers but people have the same names. I tried to restore the phone from a back-up and the contacts reappear but within a few minutes the contacts are deleted again. Does anyone have any advice on how to stop this?

go to settings>mail>and click on your email>make sure contacts is on on all your emails

A newb question - How do I get iTunes to stop DELETING things from my iPod?

I just got my PC back up and running, went to use my brand new iPod that was loaded with music/movie/podcasts from my laptop, I install iTunes on the PC, get everything set to my account and then take a look at my iPod only to find EVERYTHING has just been deleted.
So far I hate iTunes and I truly hate the fact that I cannot just drag and drop files onto my iPod.
Is there a way to lock files so they do not get deleted? Now all the stuff I have purchased cannot be downloaded again, another stupid idea. Once I pay for something I should be able to download it to the same iPod as often as I need.
What truly ***** is I am a technogeek and have been an IT person for a long time, just when I think I understand how this software works, BAM it deletes all the files on my iPod.
Is there any other decent software out there that I can use besides iTunes?
I think you get the idea, I am frustrated and I know it is something simple that I am missing or overlooking. I guess I have to go buy iTunes for Dummies huh
Any help or information that anyone can offer would be wonderful.
Thanks,

I will still look for a different program.
The other programs (like Anapod) are all Windows Explorer based and thus only work decently on very small music collections (e.g., less than 500 tracks or so). If you have a substantial collection, these schemes quickly become more trouble than they are worth because you must track everything manually or indirectly.
My library is medium sized at 17,500 tracks (still under 75GB, just barely) and I could never manage it without a database like iTunes. If I had a large collection this advice would go double.

I downloaded the Keynote app to use on my iPad and because of iCloud, it is trying unsuccessfully to download onto my iPhone. How can I get it to stop attempting to download onto my iPhone? It says waiting and I can't delete it (no X to click). Thx!

Did you try shutting down the device? Resetting? Disabling iCloud? Disabling auto-update?
I'd find the problem that is keeping the download from proceeding and fix that so that the process can finish...sounds like it may be your connection or a server issue, in which case you may need to wait.

I started downloading The Hunger Games to my iPod 4g but I want to stop the download, not just pause it. When I go to the videos app I can't find it there to delete it. So how do I get it to stop downloading it?

Just let it download and then delete it afterwards! When its done touch it and hold down until it starts to shake and hit the x in the corner to delete it! Hope this helped!

Change your iCloud ID password: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5624. After doing so, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new password.

That means there is content on your phone...music and or apps...originally obtained using his Apple ID. Such content is forever tied to the account used to originally obtain it and cannot be transferred to another Apple ID. Your only choice is to identify and delete this content.

how do i get iPhoto to stop bothering me with Mobile Me Migration windows when everything's already on my hard drive?

Click "More Info", not "o.k.".
Then open the iPhoto Preferences "Accounts" tab and remove the "Mobile Me" account, if it is still there.
Quit iPhoto.
Check, if "Mobile Me" is still enabled in the System Preferences > Mobile Me panel (if you still have this panel). if yes, sign out.
Log off and on again.
Test, if iPhoto still is bugging you to transfer your Mobile Me content. If yes, you need to delete your iPhoto Preferences from your User Library.
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iPhoto.plist
And also remove the file
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto/mmsunset.plist
from the Caches in the User Library - this file contain the end date of Mobile me.

I have a program not responding in paralellels 7, how to I get it to stop. I am running OS 10.7.4.

Firstly, you'll need to open up the Windows Task Manager by pressing CTRL + ALT + DELETE. From there, simply find your unresponsive program, right-click and select Go To Progress (not End Task). The Processes tab will open and your program should be highlighted. Now, press the End Process button and select Yes. It instantly closes the problem

How to I get autofill to stop filling in my browser?

I have gone to preferences>autofill and gotten rid of things that were being filled in.
It's not working. I will start to type a letter in the browser, and it's filled in automatically. I don't want it to do that. How can I get it to stop? I did check Private Browsing as well. thanks!

HI,
Safari/Preferences - AutoFill web forms.
Make sure you unchecked those boxes.
Also, make note of all your preferences.
Then delete this file. com.apple.safari.plist
Go here: ~/Library/Preferences.
Move that .plist file to the Trash and restart your Mac.

How do I get it to stop?

I have W8.1 on my HP laptop. I am using my Bluetooth headset to listen to programs, videos, etc. My problem is, especially when I switch between my laptop and cell phone, the Windows Media Player starts up. HOW DO I GET IT TO STOP?
It seems when I hang up from a phone conversation, WMP automatically opens with NO assistance from me. I seldom listen to it, yet it just opens and plays.
Aside from deleting it altogether, what can I do to stop autoplay. Yes, I have tried to stop the autoplay but that does no good. I have over 900 songs on here and do like to listen to it WHEN I CHOOSE, not when it does. Someone please help me!

How can I get iTunes to stop downloading iTunes extras with movies?

How can I get Itunes to stop downloading the movie extras? We never watch them and they are wasting space on my harddrive. Each time I delete them, Itunes redownloads the extras.

Thx, and I agree.
I'm selecting that "my question has been answered" here - because the answer is NO. It's apparently not possible. Which is frakkin' ridiculous, and I'd love to be proven wrong. But that's how it appears to be.
What I ended up doing was first backing up all my data by downloading an app called DiskAid (free, Windows and OS X), and actually digging through my iPhone's folder system until I found the right Applications folder, and clicked through each subfolder until I found the Apps whose data I wanted to copy.
For anyone who ever needs to do that, the location is:
/user/Applications/[long string of numbers]/Documents
I was able to back up my apps on my home computer. So I still am not able to sync up any part of my phone at my work computer, without risking deleting these files. Basically I've minimized the possible damage by making backups.
Whatev. I'll live. : ) Beautiful phone. Just so irritating.

Suddenly I have problems moving files to the trash... get a dialog saying Finder wants to make changes and I must provide the password... Any explanation or ideas how I can get this to stop?

Suddenly I have problems moving files to the trash... get a dialog saying Finder wants to make changes and I must provide the password... Any explanation or ideas how I can get this to stop?

Please take these steps if you're prompted for a password when moving items in your home folder to the Trash.
1. Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/.Trash
2. Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Show Info
from the contextual menu.* An Info dialog should open.
3. The dialog should show "You can read and write" in the Sharing & Permissions section. If that's not what it shows, click the padlock icon in the lower right corner of the window and enter your password when prompted. Use the plus- and minus-sign buttons to give yourself Read & Write access and "everyone" No Access. Delete any other entries in the access list.
4. In the General section, uncheck the box marked Locked if it's checked.
5. From the action menu (gear icon) at the bottom of the dialog, select Apply to enclosed items and confirm.
6. Close the Info window and test.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Open a TextEdit window and paste into it (command-V). Select the line you just pasted and continue as above.

Safari keeps opening new taps with random website how do it get it to stop?

Safari keeps opening new taps with random website how do it get it to stop?

There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
You may have installed the "VSearch" trojan. Remove it as follows.
Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. These instructions are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Step 1
From the Safari menu bar, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot," "Trovi," or "Conduit" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
Reset the home page and default search engine in all the browsers, if it was changed.
Step 2
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
Right-click or control-click the line and select
          Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "com.vsearch.agent.plist" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
Repeat with each of these lines:
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
/Library/Application Support/VSearch
/System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ConduitNPAPIPlugin.plugin
Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
The problem may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow.
You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the Internet criminal behind VSearch has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
