  • How are businesses handling the "APPLE LOCK" on company cell phones when an employee leaves and their phone is unusable because the euipment was set up on the employee's personal Apple Account with their ID and password?

    How are businesses handling the "APPLE LOCK" on company cell phones when an employee leaves and their phone is unusable because the euipment was set up on the employee's personal Apple Account with their ID and password?  When an employee leaves a business and the company has purchased the equipment, the company should have the rights to reissue the equipment and Apple should provide an alternative to unlock the equipment from the employee's personal APPLE account and password so the company (that purchased the equipment) can reissue the line and equipment to another employee.

    If you can prove ownership to Apple, they may be able to help you.
    The best way of handing things would be strong policies requiring that the equipment be turned in in a usable state. i.e. not activation locked. Failing this, the employee should be charged the cost of the replacement phone. Held from their final paycheck if required.

  • How can I move the contacts from my Samsung flip phone to my iphone 5S?

    I have a new iphone 5S to replace my iphone 4.  Due to a long story I can't back up my contacts from icloud or iTunes.  Is there a way that I can back up the contacts on my Samsung flip phone to the 5S?

    See if your carrier can do it for you. They often have machines (one of the brand names is Cellbrite) that you can hook the phones to and it will copy contacts from one to another.

  • How can i erase the contacts I made in the iPad3 by iTunes in one step?

    I have synced my iPad 3 with iTunes for all the contacts  I had in Outlook-2007,( about 600 contacts ) I got all those 600 into my iPad3. When I backed up with iCloud nothing is seen in iCloud in my PC. I manually added couple of contacts in iPad3 and I could see them in iCloud when again I backed up. What I got from Outlook was not seen in iCloud.  Now I want to delete all those 600 contacts from iPad in one step. Is there any one step procedure for this as these contacts are not getting into iCloud.
    Appreciate your help.

    The Maps app included in iOS, at least as of the current version, requires an Internet connection, so you'll need to get an app that allows you to download maps to be kept on the iPad. MotionX GPS Drive is one such app, but there are others available.
    Regards.

  • How can i restore the contacts that were on my iphone before i synched?

    I have accidentally deleted my entire contact list/address book from my iphone while synching my iphone to the computer. It has been replaced with all contacts from other users that synch to this computer. How can I restore the contacts I created on my phone?

    I pop up in these forums perhaps 3-4 times a year since about 10 years ago. How disappointing. It seems that all the forums here are mainly quite useless. Many have like 900 views and only 3-4 replies; and these replies more often than not, are people sharing the same problem Actual solutions are hard to find. Shouldn't Apple be embarrassed about this and perhaps do something about it. Consider this one as an example. It has
    893 Views  and only4 Replies. Out of these 4 replies opnly 1 is actually a possible answer/solution, which unfortunately (as in many otgher cases) does not provide the solution needed.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Contact AppleCare (or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    I'm not exactly sure what procedures are in place for such events but Apple can assist in such cases, but it may take a while and you may need to provide proof of purchase and other corporate documents.
    For future reference your best tactic might be to use Apple Configurator to set up all your companies devices. You can set the password for 'Find my Phone' to be identical for all your devices, whilst allowing the user to use their own password for the remainder of the iCloud services.

    Before Selling or giving away an iOS Device...
    If desired, move photos/videos off the Camera Roll: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
    If desired, backup the device to iTunes or iCloud: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
    Then, on the device...
    Settings > Messages > iMessage > Off
    Settings > FaceTime > Off
    Settings > iCloud > (scroll down) Delete Accout (this only unregisters and deletes it off the device)
    Settings > iTunes & App stores.  Tap the AppleID and sign out.
    Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings
    Unregister your device at https://supportprofile.apple.com

  • How do I delete the Contacts Icon put on the 2G and 3G iPhones?

    How do I delete the Contacts on my 2G iPhone? I want to pass the 2G on and all my phone numbers are there and the Contacts won't deltete!

    Back up your Address Book on your Mac. Delete al the contacts. Sync the phone. All your conatats will be gone
    Unplug the phone. Restore your contacts into Address Book.
    Eaglesflight1258 is right. You can't delete the Contacts icon from the phone, and even if you could, pressing the phone button brings up the same contacts list. There's only one list of names and numbers, and both buttons use it.
    An alternative strategy is to get the other stuff to the recipient by copying the files onto his/her computer so they can be synced with the phone; then Erase everything from the phone.

    OS X Lion. 10.7. Your profile says your running 10.6.8, which is Snow Leopard. You need 10.7 to use iCloud with your Mac.

  • How can I sync the contacts in my phone with those on my MacBook Pro? I already have an iCloud account, and everything else (calendars,music, etc.I is already synched) but the contacts won't.

    How can I sync the contacts in my phone with those on my MacBook Pro? I already have an iCloud account, and everything else (calendars,music, etc.I is already synched) but the contacts won't.

    Ok.
    Open System Preferences, Apple Logo icon in the menu bar and then System Preferences or the Sys Pref iocon in the Dock and go to the Internet Accounts area and look at your iCloud account. It should list what is and isn't synced by a checkmark next to each item.
    Also in the Contacts app click on Contacts in the menu bar and select Preferences then accounts and make sure your iCloud account is listed. You can also do that from the Internet Accounts area in System Preferences.

  • My partner has my former iPad 1, I have an iPhone 5 and iPad Gen III.  I want to copy my contacts list to his iPad.  We both have Apple ID's and we share a PC.  How do i copy the contacts from my iPhone, iCloud or iPad to his iPad 1?

    The problem is that all services are bundled with your Apple ID ([email protected]):
    Your iCloud account (Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Notes, Backups, etc.),
    also iTunes & App Store purchases (Music, Movies, TV Shows, etc.),
    and the iTunes Match services.
    (I guess that all your devices - yours and your wife's are connected to one iTunes library, right?)
    If you want that your wife gets her own iCloud account for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, etc. but gets also access to your media then you have two set up two things on her device:
    iCloud (Settings > iCloud) with her account (e.g. [email protected])
    and
    iTunes & App Stores (Settings > iTunes & App Stores) with your account (e.g. [email protected]).
    In this case she gets access to your library and could use the same iTunes Match account.

    While I have a few ideas, I think you'd have better luck troubleshooting this in the iCloud forum.
