How to separate contacts

After installing Maverick my Contacts and Calendars and my wife's have been combined. I think I caused the problem. We sync 2 iPhones and an iPad. I think I enabled iCloud or something. I think I have fixed the Calendar problem by unchecking some calendars until only our individual caledar data appears. Not sure how to do this with Contacts. My best guess is separating by Smart Groups? Make a group for me and one for her? If so how do I separate? Is there a way to designate who's is who?
Thanks

You can continue to use the current AppleID for iTunes, but your husband can create a new AppleID to use to create a new iCloud account that will be his own and not overlap with yours. If you do not have another email address to use for an AppleID, just get a free Gmail account and use that.
You can have as many AppleIDs as you want (or at least, as many as you have email addresses for). You can use a separate AppleID for the store, another for iCloud, and even another for iMessage if you wish.
You will want to keep the current one as the shared one for the store as all your previous purchases are permanently tied to it, and thus you need that AppleID to update or redownload your current purchased content.

How to separate two contact with same name

Hi, anyone knows how to separate two contacts with same name in Contacts? Actually they are two persons from two gmail contacts with same name but different contact numbers, different emails....etc, but Contacts assume they are same person and merge them as one!

FG,
In Lion, you have the File > Duplicate option. You will then have two copies of your document open, and the one on top will have the temporary filename "OriginalFileName copy", and your next responsibility is to File > Save (or Command-S) and rename the duplicate. At this point, you edit the copy's name, to perhaps ...copy 1, or whatever you wish. The document you had open when you initiated the File > Duplicate will still be there on your screen, waiting for you to Close it or continue editing.

How to separate telephone numbers in contacts

how to separate telephone numbers in groups of 4 in contacts

You posted in the OS 9 (pre-year 2000) forum instead of the MacBook Pro forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa I'll request that Apple relocate your post.
What OS X version are you running?

Help! I have a new iPhone 5s. My husband just lost his 4s, so I want to give him mine. Want to use same Apple ID so we both have access to itunes/apps purchases. Want to separate contacts, messages, mail, etc. I cannot change iCloud address.

Help! I have a new iPhone 5s. My husband just lost his 4s, so I want to give him my 4s. We want to use same Apple ID so we both have access to itunes/apps purchases. Want to separate contacts, messages, mail, etc. I cannot change iCloud address on 4s iPhone. Also, when I tried to change iMessage I got a message that if I deleted my id (which seemed to be the only way to get my husband's I'd there), I would not be able to receive iMessages on any device.
Would someone kindly tell me how to set up th 4s for my husband so that we can keep our info separate? It would be most appreciated! Thanks!!

Hey Fagen!
You will want to see the following article for guidance on achieving the result you wish to achieve:
What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5661
I would just follow the instructions from this article to give your unused 4s to your spouse. Since you have already started using your 5s, you will still be receiving iMessages on that phone and will have no need to receive them on a device that has been replaced. Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!
Cheers,
Braden

Syncing separate phones, separate contacts in Outlook

My wife and I each have an iphone.
I synced with outlook for my contacts, and I've got all my contact info there, but we have separate profiles on outlook, with separate e-mail accounts and separate contacts.
I can't differentiate how to sync my iphone with my outlook profile and my contacts, and her iphone with her outlook profile, which will hold her contacts.

Let me amplify what I posted earlier. I do not see any way that Itunes will let you choose a profile. The only way it will work is with separate user accounts.
You need to set up two user accounts on your windows machine, one for you and one for your wife. If this is a new login, Outlook will not know anything. You will need to create a profile, associate it with your email, and make your existing Outlook file the default data file. Start iTunes and it should see this profile as the one it will use for mail, contacts, and calendar.
Do the same thing with your wife's login. It is a little work, and you may have to deal with where common files, like music, is kept so that each iTunes setup can see them.

TS3899 I accidently turned ON contacts when I was turning ON my yahoo email account in settings and now all the emails from contacts have been merged to create SEPARATE contact right under the original contact name. Now I have double contacts for everyone

I accidently turned ON contacts when I was turning ON my yahoo email account in Settings and now all the emails from contacts have been merged to create SEPARATE contact right under the original contact name. Now I have double contacts for everyone with an email address!!! how do I UNDO? it says all CONTACTS WILL BE DELETED...when I go to turn CONTACTS to OFF.

Any contacts synced with the Yahoo account will be deleted from the phone if you turn it off. They will still be out there in Yahoo land, so if you turn it off and it deletes something you didn't want to, just turn it back on again.
It's extremely unclear what you did when you say " I only created contacts and typed in emails that I had for those contacts.....so I am still not sure how to UNdo what I did without deleting anything"
Undo WHAT, exactly? You said "I accidently turned ON contacts when I was turning ON my yahoo email account in Settings and now all the emails from contacts have been merged to create SEPARATE contact right under the original contact name."
Just turn it off.

Left my phone in the movie theatre..what do I do? how do i contact location services?

I just left my phone in the movies...and now they are closed! how do I contact location services to make sure it is still there?

If you were running iOS 5 or higher, had enabled iCloud and Find My iPhone before losing it, you can go to icloud.com on your computer and try to locate it as outlined here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmfc0f2442. If it's turned on, still has Find My iPhone enabled, and has a connection to the internet, it should appear on the map.
If you didn't enable Find My iPhone before losing it you won't be able to locate it.

How to separate debit and credit values in gl statement report (daywise)

hi
experts,
i have report.
selection criteria is
chars of account.
gl account
date .
how to separate debit and credit values in gl statement?.(i know there is a indicator shkzg).
but send me code.
op
date, total credit,total debit , balances.
also calculate opening and closing balance.
u created such type of report then plz help me.
thanks&regards.\
ajay.

Hi,
Usually it can be determined using the field shkzg. If it contain 'S' its debit and if it contains 'H' then its credit.
Before showing the amount you need to do like;
IF wa_gl-shkzg = 'H'.
wa_gl-dmbtr = wa_gl-dmbtr * (-1). " dbmtr - amount
ENDIF.
This will solve your problem.
Regards

I'm exhausted of trying to find a solution to a problem created by Apple. I have moved to iCloud, following your instructions and now I can not use my mobileme e-mail address. How can I contact directly with Apple, not just an automatic reply phone number

I'm exhausted of trying to find a solution to a problem created by Apple. I have moved to icloud following all your instructions and now I can not use my mobile me e-mail address. I can not activate icloud because when I put my e-mail address it answers that somebody is already using my address. I have my old e-mails, but I can not receive any e-mail or send them.
I have contacted Apple Technical Support in Spain and I was sent an e-mail saying that I have to call a phone number and when I call it is always an answering machine who answers that says that I have to pay 50€ for a consultation or wait for 10 minutes. When I have made the consultation it was never mentioned that I have to pay 50€ for a phone consultation. If I don't want to wait I have to pay for the Apple Tecnical Support which cost 250 €, this was not mentioned in the technical support page.
Can somebody let me know how can I contact Apple in another way in order to talk with a human being or chat directly? I was very happy just using my mobileme e-mails, I didn't need any clouds and I was force by Apple to registered if I want to continue using my mobileme e-mail address.

Sandra,

2 iPhones 1 computer – Is there any way to have separate contact list

My wife and I recently purchased 2 iPhones (One for each of us). We are presently sharing an iBook G4. Is there any way to have separate contact list and separate calendars on the computer? We both use our phones for our individual work, and have different contact. I am trying to move us from pc to mac. I have a newer pc (compared to the G4) that I can hook the phones up too, but as I said I am trying to move away from PC's. We purchased the G4 used from a friend to get started and learn mac. Sorry for the long explanation I just wanted you to know that I am new to mac.

Just set-up 2 user accounts on the computer, then you effectively have 2 computers in one. All your phone data, and everything else (internet bookmarks, desktop preferences, application preferences) etc. are completely separate.
You and your wife can then use the computer in exactly the way you both prefer without affecting the other.
You didn't say what version of Mac OS X you are using, so here are the instructions for:
10.4.x: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh168.html
10.5.x: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/8235.html
You can then use *Fast User Switching* to switch between the accounts:

How to separate multiple addressees on one to: or Bcc: line

Can't figure out how to separate addressees on one line. Nowhere is this spelled out. Other forums say a colon or a semi-colon. Neither one works. When I add either one, the first address turns red, meaning it is no longer recognized by Thunderbird. Am using TB 24.6.0. Thanks in advance.

How do I contact support? Have email receipt for magazine subscription renewal on iPad - can't activate!!

I received a receipt from iTunes for two items: a subscription to the series 48 Hours, and a renewal of my subscription to the magazine Reader's Digest.
48 Hours works fine.
Reader's Digest I can't get into. I press the gear in the upper right corner, enter my Apple ID and password and get an "opportunity" to purchase issues I've already paid for with my $14.95 annual subscription.
Reader's Digest tells me this is an iTunes issue.
I find nowhere to get support since my AppleCare subscription ran out after 2 years...I don't have a hardware issue, I have a "someone stole $14.95 and I want a refund or to get my subscription activated" problem.
When I click "report a problem" on the receipt (which is about a month old) I get "Oops! Google Chrome could not find nk11p02it-ibav22281602:8141". When I search on my orders for the Order ID (MGN9GV1YGT) it doesn't appear, although clearly it's on the receipt. So how do I protect myself against Apple and/or RD simply stealing my $15 and giving me nothing for it, considering I can't contact Customer Service since my device is out of warranty? Obviously this is NOT a device issue. It's a stealing $$$ from me issue.
HOW DO I CONTACT SOMEONE FOR HELP WITH THIS?
Thanks...
Jay from the Bronx

Thanks for that link which is hidden away on the ProDAD website & leads to a form to be filled to contact ProDAD. I received an email back this morning & a link to download an unlocked version of the Mac plugins so now all is working. [email address deleted by host]
