How is it that I now have someone elses photos on my ipad after a full restore?
I had to restore my iPad 2 on Friday due to a problem booting. When I finally restored it back to factory settings I started to noticed elements of someone elses account on it. There are photos in my Camera Roll that are not mine. When I first logged into Facebook it suggested a username (email address) that was not mine. The email accounts of someone else are also partially set up. I have had this iPad from new out of the box so how can this have happened? I am now worried that my photos and other accounts are mixed up with someone else!!!
The only way that I can see this happening is if you restored somebody else's backup to your iPad. If you completely erased the iPad and restored as new there is no way somebody else's information or photos could possibly be on the iPad.

Hi I was just wanting to know if anyone can help with a problem I am having with an iPad 2. Some apps were purchased with one apple id and when I try to update the apps signed in with my id it asks for the password to the other id but also on an iPod touch apps were purched with first id and when someone else tries to download more apps it aske for the first persons apple id so is there any way than I can override these problems easily or be able to delet that persons id permanently so as we can download and update without it asking for a password that nobody knows or has access to please.
I need this problem fixed ASAP.Hi Maree85,
Unfortunately the apps bought by one ID need these ID for update the app. If you want to use it with your ID you must delete and buy the app (or download it if its free) again. -
How can i have someone elses music in my ITUNES - HELP!!!!!
I have someone elses library in my itunes. So much that it asks me for the password to sign into her yahoo account. I still have my own personal library but how can i have another person who i don't even know?!?!!
Go into your Preferences and disable the 'Shared Music' option.
You may be picking up someone else's iTunes via your Internet connection. -
I have just purchased an iphone today and it is coming up with a picture on the screen of the usb connector and itunes symbol. It also says that I now have no service and can only make emergency calls
Just a thought, but maybe consider returning the device. Seems it might be a bit too complicated for you.

I read that I can have iworks for free on my iPad if I own a copy for my computer. Is this correct, and how do I download it without being charged?
There really is nothing more to say than what Allan has already said, but to explain just a little further, what you may have read is that once you purchase an iOS app in the app store, you do not have to purchase it again if you need to download it to another iOS device. In other words once you buy the app, you can load it onto unlimited iPhones, iPod Touches or iPads.
You must be using the same iTunes account that you originally purchased the app with in order to download it again. But as Allan said, just because you have it on your Mac does not entitle you to download it free to your iPad. -

How can I see that I already have a song on my Ipod and review my full list of songs all together? So I don't reload the same song.
In iTunes, try changing "album artist" tag to the same name for eack track,
also make sure that "track number" values are correct and different for each.
(select all songs of an album > lmb > get info) -
How indesign detects that the images have been modified
Hello,
My problem is that all my images links are seen modified (yellow triangle) while the images don't have been modified.
The modified dates are the same.
All my images are on a unix server and indesign is used on Mac.
How indesign detects that the images have been modified ?Thank you for your answer.
When you say the time stamp you talk about the modification date in the box link info ?
Because this date is the same on the image and in indesign and when I update the image this date doesn't change.
the only informations that change when I update the links are the import date and the state (modified become ok) -

My Mac keeps starting up to the disk utilities screen. Im guessing i need to repair the disk or load my backed up memory but i am unsure of how to do that. I have all my memory backed up on an external hard drive.
The Disk Utility screen has instructions right on it.
Just read them and follow the directions.
Readers can help if you get stuck.
It opens with something like, "select a disk, volume, or image".
You click on your drive in the left column, top item.
The next screen spells out how to do a ( Repair Disk ).
You have a Macintosh. It will not cut your hand off.
If something dangerous is coming, it will say stuff like, "this will erase all the data on your drive. Do you want to proceed?" -
Purchased gift cards about a year ago. Misplaced two of them, but Found them yesterday. i tried to use one today. Invalid. If the money is tagged to the card code why is it invalid? Now have to take photos of both sides and find receipt? Finding the receipt might take as long as .finding the cards. If I paid hard earned money for the card from a computer company why would that card not be in their data base waiting to be activated? I guess I am out $20 to Apple for not activating immediately! My account was hacked once so I won't put a credit card in and live with gift cards. Now I am getting hit for $20, two gift cards for ten each. I now question who and how people are making money?? Is my only solution, buy card, redeem code instantly, purchase item?

You may have to do this several times.
Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

All of my photos now have the same photo when I look at them in the viewing area. It makes it look as though all of my photos are the exact same! I have to actually open the photo itself to see the actual photo. this makes it impossible to work with the photos in iphoto. How can I return it so that I see the photo itself in the preview area? Thank you!
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to rebuild the thumbnails. This can take three or four goes.

Have been taking photos with my Ipad and sending them to email address and FB. For some reason it will now send photos to FB but not my email address. What could be the problem?
Does your email provider have a limit on the total file size allowed on their server? It could be that emails with photos send in the past are still on your email server. They might even be in the servers trash folder. If the total MB of those emails exceeds the amount allowed then no additional emails can be received. Try using a web mail page to check and edit what's on the email server.
