HT1386 After last syncing between iPad3 and iMac, many books I have purchased have cloud symbol and won't open. Afraid to resync as one very large book didn't sync to iMac and afraid of losing it. How do I get these books back?

1. After my last synching between iPad3 and iMac, most of my downloaded books have a cloud/arrow symbol and won't open. Most PDF files in iBook just disappeared. I am afraid to resync as a book I recently downloaded, which took up a big chunk of my 5GB download limit, doesn't appear on my computer and when I try to sync, I get the message that all my books will be replaced.
2. Is there any way to read the books downloaded to my iPad on my iMac? Can I download an Ap for that?
I am really disappointed in the interface between my iPad and iMac and the fact that I can't selectively delete items (music and photos) that I have synched to the iPad. It seems like Apple if going toward the Microsoft method of trying to do everything for you, rather than allowing the user to manually do things.

In iBooks on the iPad every book you purchased will be on the Purchased Book collection. Those books that you have purchased in the past but for some reason are not actually on your iPad are still available in the bookstore. They will have the cloud symbol on the corner. You can tap on that book to download it again. You will not be charged for doing this.

When initiating an e mail to someone with several addresses used in the past the one I use most often does not come up in the first position. How can I get these multiple e mails prioritized?

We are talking about the Mail app, right? In the Mail menubar, click on Window and then Previous Recipients:
That eliminates the previous recipients. If you are talking about the suggestions because there are 10 people with the name 'Steve' in your Contacts, then I do not know how to eliminate those unless you change the name slightly or wait until you type the last name or some other differentiator.

After installing Office2011 for Mac, I have lost math/greek fonts. I can get them in 'safe mode' but not regular - how can I get these fonts back?

I installed MS-Office 2011 for Mac, after deleting the old 2004 version. I have hundreds of slides in powerpoint presentations generated over the years, that contain math/greek symbols - these characters have disappeared in powerpoint 2011, replaced by a box with a squiggle in it. These files are OK on a PC, and if I boot up the MBP in 'safe mode' the characters appear in the correct font. How can I get Office 2011 to recognise the correct symbol font in regular mode?

TS3999 all my non-recurring appointments have been deleted from my iphone. The are listed on my pc in outlook under icloud archives. How do I get these appointments back on my phone

All my non-recurring appointments have been deleted from my iphone. They are stored in outlook 2010 under the archiveicloud calander. How do I restore these appointments to my phone? Thanks

The pics are gone. This is what a restore is. You erased your iphone, reinstalled your software, then added back your settings from the date of the last backup.
You should have imported your photos to your computer as you would with any digital pictures, before any restore or update.
Sorry

I have I phone 5. Somehow I lost my music when trying to find an audio book I had bought on itunes. I tried syncing with my mac but didn't work. I match was switched on . How do I get my music back on my phone? Can anyone help?

I have an iPhone 5. Whilst trying unsuccessfully to find an audiobook I bought from the iTunes Store on my phone, I lost all my music . Now iTunes Match just keeps trying to load, but nothing happens. I still have my music on my ipad and my computer so I tried syncing to get it back on my phone, but that didn't work. Does anyone know what to do please?

turn match off and then sync
syncing itunes mac
first open itunes on mac computer
At top left you have an apple - itunes- file edit view ect...
go under view and show side bar
go under iTunes and check for updates (11.1.3 current) - update if needed
plug in iphone (or ipad, ipod ect..)
when the device shows up in the sidebar click on the name of device not the arrow
this opens up a summary page
across top says info, apps, music, photos, ect...
click on what you want to sync ie music
check the top box that says sync music select -entire library or selected songs and pick what you want by checking
now apply or sync at bottom
Peace, Clyde

My ipad will not scroll and in order to do anything i have to triple touch any icon or letter for the thing to respond. how do i get these functions back?

I was watching a video online yesterday on my ipad, closed the cover to move to another location when I opened the cover back up my ipad was acting funny. Now I can't get the scroll function to work and to get any of the buttons to work I need to triple tap them. Tried to reset by holding down the sleep button and the open/close buttons at the same time but all that does is alternate between a black screen and a screen with the apple logo.
If i let the battery run all the way down when I recharge will that reset the device? any other suggestions on what to do?

It sounds like you had Voice Over enabled in the Accessibilty Settings. Are you are able to start the iPad now? It sounds like that is an issue as well.
This explains how to turn Voice Over off and on.

You don't need or necessarily want to let the battery run down at all. If you let the battery run down and then recharge, that will not reset the device.
If the iPad is not responding at all, look through this for help in order to get the iPad up and running again, and then you can deal with Voice Over.

Just updated to Lion. Didn't realize things like reading a Word document would not be supported. How do I get these files back and how I do read them going forward? When a PC user sends me a word document won't I be able to open it and read it?

Just updated to Lion today, 11/22/11. I did not realize things likes reading a Word document would not be supported. "You cannot open this because PowerPC applications are no longer supported." How am I supposed to read and open Word documents from PC users? Any insight is helpful, thanks!

You have Word 2004 which is PPC based. Lion is not able to execute PPC code. You have to upgrade. Or you can do as I do an open them in Pages, since I refuse to allow anything from Microsloth on my Mac.
