HT1386 My contacts keep deleting themselves and syncing with someone else?

My contacts keep deleting themselves and syncing with someone else?

Well, if you no longer sync contacts with iCloud, that means that anyone else using your Apple ID for iCloud will no longer have access to your contacts.

  • Help - I left safari open on a public computer and now my favorites sync with someone else's

    I left my safari browser open on a computer that lots of people in our office use - now my iPhone and iPad favorites in Safari sync with someone else's favorites.  Too many people use that PC to figure out who it is, so I just need to separate my real account so that only my iPhone and iPad have access to my information.  I did clear my browser history and cookies in case they are syncing with this other person's account, but I think it's just the favorites that are getting changed up.  Help!

    Change your iCloud password as explained here: iCloud: Change your iCloud password.  That will prevent any other devices or computers being able to access your iCloud data without the new password.

  • After updating my software my SOME of my contacts keep deleteing over and over agin? How do i make this stop?

    Yes, that IS the Keychain.

  • Someone gave me an ipad can I keep the apps and sync with my iTunes?

    Someone gave me an iPad 2 and I was wondering if I sync it with my computer is there a way to keep the apps that are currently on the iPad?

    You need to update to the latest iOS 5.1.1.
    See iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect to your computer & click on the "Update your device using iTunes".
    Tip - Disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. After you update to iOS 5.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

  • Deleting songs and syncing with ipod.

    There was too much music in my library to fit on my ipod. Deleted several songs down to 1590.  When syncing it says 1997 songs. Why is it showing more songs to download than what I have in library?

    If your iPod was set to manually sync you could do that by ripping to the old computer and then dragging those tracks onto the iPod with the other stuff on the iPod left alone. Problem is, to set to manual, you have to plug it into your non-working computer. You could take all the stuff off the iPod, put it on the old computer, then let the old computer resync the iPod to its library.

  • IOS6 upgrade shared my numbers and calander with someone else

    I downloaded IOS 6 to my IPhone 4s only to find it had shared my phone and calander details with another IPhone user, and her details were also downloaded to my IPhone.  These are different accounts and not related.  I had to delete all my numbers and hers, and as I was doing this these were also being deleted from hers.  This *****, especially as I am a non tech person...and this was personal information.  Right now i feel that I will never purchase another Apple product again.  Its also deleted my album covers.  Every new IOS has messed up something, but this is more than just inconvenience. Apple seem to be just careless despite all the hype.

    Do this -> http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2109
    You should go to Verizon and have them copy the micro-SIM in her 4S to the nano SIM in the 5S. This will transfer service from her old iPhone to new iPhone. It should be possible to transfer service over the phone (to save a trip to the store).
    As for her old iPhone, see this -> http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5661

  • Bought an ipad mini and my emails keep deleting themselves. They're there one second and gone the next

    Bought an ipad mini and my emails keep deleting themselves. They're there one second and gone the next.....any suggestions?

    The official return policy of the Apple Store for anything other than an iPhone is fourteen days, not 30 days. Any return of an iPad beyond fourteen days, even if a new model is released, would be an exception, not policy.
    Regards.

  • HT4623 I lost my apps and iTunes after a restore, but it says there isn't enough space on the iPhone 4. How do I know how much space needs to be freed up? I keep deleting photos and videos, but I'm still getting the same message.

    I did an iphone 4 software update. It then asked me to do a "restore" in order for me to be able to use the latest iTunes. I did a "restore" to "factory settings" (this was the only option listed) thinking I'd be able to sync later and get everything back and ended up losing all my purchased apps and iTunes. When I open iTunes, "Welcome to your new iphone" and it says I can re-do the "restore" and choose my lastest update. I assume this will give me back my apps and iTunes. When i choose to do this, it says there isn't enough space on the iPhone. How do I know how much space needs to be freed up? I keep deleting photos and videos from the phone, but I'm still getting the same message every time I re-try. I don't want to delete everything, but I don't know what to do...? Thanks!

    Thanks but I think it has something to do with the 'restore'. in the newest iTunes 11, when I click on the tab "iphone", it redirects me to the "welcome to your new iphone" page and asks about doing a 'restore'. I already did a 'restore', but it went to the original factory settings and I want to 'restore' to my lastest back up as of April 12. When I choose that option, it says my iphone doesn't have enough space. I don't know how much I need to delete in order to make it work. I've deleted lots, but it only has 4.1 GB available. I'm not sure why this isn't enough to do a 'restore'. I don't want to delete all my photos and videos, but maybe I will have to?...7.7GB is used up for that. I can't sync or do ANYTHING...

  • I received an ipod touch 5th gen for Christmas.  The first songs i've downloaded and synced with my touch have created ghost songs.  They are only on my computer in itunes once but appear on my ipod twice, one copy that won't play.  I can't delete them

    The first songs i've downloaded and synced with my new touch have created ghost songs.  They are only on my computer in itunes once but appear on my ipod twice, one copy that won't play.  I can't delete them.  I've tried unticking all the music that was on the ipod via itunes and re-syncing, which in theory should delete all music from my ipod.  It does except for the 5 ghost songs.   So at present I have no music on ipod except the 5 ghost songs.   Has anyone got any ideas how I can get rid of these?  
    I had no problems with my ipod touch 4th, which I had for years.   Any help would be great.

    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components

    Have you tried the usual cures such as resetting your phone or backing it up then restoring from the backup?

    Don't try to change the songs. Connect the iPod, click on the name of it, go to the Summary page and Restore it as a new device.

  • I just Synced My iPhone 6 which had close to 2000 photos to a new computer (windows PC) and synced with iTunes.Now all my previous photos have been deleted which were there on my phone. Please suggest a way to recover those Photos . Thanks

    I just Synced My iPhone 6 which had close to 2000 photos to a new computer (windows PC) and synced with iTunes.Now all my previous photos have been deleted which were there on my phone. Please suggest a way to recover those Photos . Thanks
    P.S -I have not taken any backup of those photos. So please suggest any software or any other method.

    If those photos were part of the camera roll, they were part of the backup as well and you can restore from the latest backup you made on the old computer. After that transfer the photos to the new PC, follow this article: iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
    Then sync again to the new one, which will erase the phone again.
    You can also try to copy the backup folder from the old computer to the new one and see if the old backups get recognized, check this article to find the location on your PC:
    Create and delete iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch backups in iTunes
    If the photos were not taken with the phone, your data is gone, photos you sync from iTunes to the phone are not included in the backup.
