HT202058 iphone 6+ somehow has switched my name on emails into my nephew's name. We share a first and last name but not a middle name. For example, my name might be John George Doe and his name John James Doe. How did this happen? How do I correct it.

So if the solution recommended by Ralph is not working then the other option is this:
Please make sure that the emails work correctly when signed into, on a computer
Then delete the account off your phone - you will not lose the emails
Reset the phone
Re add the account back in and see if that helps the issue
Thanks

My iphone just lost all of my contacts. How did this happen and how can i get them back??
If they're gone from icloud.com, then they aren't in iCloud. You could try waiting a while to see if this was caused by a server glitch and they will reappear. You could also try contacting Apple support to see if there is anything they can do at their end: http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/.
Otherwise, you may be able to restore them by restoring your last iCloud backup. Doing this is a bit tricky, as you have to interrupt the restore process as soon as your phone restarts while restoring, either by putting it in airplane mode or pulling the internet connection to your router. If you don't, iCloud will overwrite and erase any restored calendars. Then you can disable iCloud calendar syncing and save the calendars to your phone, re-enable your wifi connection and let the restore process proceed, delete any existing calendars from icloud, and turn on icloud syncing on your phone again to upload the recover calendars to iCloud. This process is explained in this user tip from Winston Churchill: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4841. While this was written for contacts, just replace calendars for contacts and for the same instructions. -
So i sent 2 PXTs to someone and it came up on their phone from 2 different numbers and none of them mine. I called those numbers and they were just normal people and they had no idea what had happened. How did this happen?
Both phones were iPhone 4s and everyone was with different carriers.Simple process. If an iPhone go to the Apple Store and not Verizon
the phone from Verizon will be a refurbished device and not new unless under the 14 day worry free guarantee
good luck -

My wife got me an iTunes card today and as soon as I redeemed it a music album that I did not order downloaded and deducted the cost from my iTunes card. I did this happen and how can I get my money back? I do not listen to the type of music that was downloaded and feel like I was robbed in a way cause the only way things are suppose to download is if I click on them and enter my password. Please let me know if there is anything I can do and am I the only person this has happened to?
Thank youThank you Niel,
My wife loaded her ITunes card right after I loaded mine and the album did not and still has not loaded onto her phone so we think it could be in my settings we are going to check into that but I did have money removed my account so thank you for the link to the form. -
I forgot to save the pages file, I do back up on time machine could a temporary file be in there somewhere? It was a 30+ page custom designed presentatiion that took me two weeks. i cannot believe I only saved it as PDF and .doc! My current theory is that I can only edit the document in pages as a pages file since that is what I had been doing. Please help if anyone has had this problem before or know how I can recover that screen I was working with a few days ago before I saved as a Word doc!!
Despite what Apple and its employees say Pages is not a 100% replacement for Word.
Pages files exported to .doc will have minor to major differences.
You should always have a Pages version. Exporting is only so non Mac and non Pages users may read it, and even there you should use .pdf to keep its appearance as close as possible to the original.
It sounds like you used a lot of Pages' features which turned out to not have Word equivalents.

Can any one help game save lost and replaced from another device ???
Yes I tried this manyfold. But did not work. Reading on, I took Tesserac's advice. Shut down router and computer.
Start router after 15 minutes and wait another 10 minutes before starting the computer.
Et voila.... everything is back in working order,

The keys on my laptop are smeared and ugly.. how did this happen??
I love my laptop HP G60-243CL Notebook PC .. and do not want to give it up, even to get the keys replaced.
I have been an HP client since my first desktop computer in 1995, but am very disappointed that the keys are smeared, almost impossible to type.. if I did not already know which key is which I would not be able to type much of a comprehensible sentence.
I am wondering why (within 1 month) the keys were smeared and ugly, also is there a possible way to get new keys that would not look the same in a few months.. my laptop is just about 1 1/2 years new at this time in it's life.
Thank you for you prompt response, H Penny McCoy
Stay Happy, Stay Healthy!!Hello and sorry about your keys, it is possible that it may be some kind of hand lotion that is causing this effect.. At least this is what we have seen in the past.. please send me a private message and we can discuss options on getting you a replacement keyboard. Thank you for being a loyal HP customer!
I am an HP employee.

In the applications folder I see two iphoto apps. One labeled iphoto (copy) 376 MB/ version 8.l.2 and the other iphoto (original) 346 MB/ version 8.1.1 . Have no idea what I did. Can I delete one of them?
I have iphoto library manager installed and used it for the first time just recently. I merged my photos into one library.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
LucyKeep the latest verson. But, as Larry cautioned, open it before deleting the other one to make sure it performs as expected.

I am on a mac mini OS X Yosemite using Numbers 3.5.2.
I opened an existing spreadsheet, sorted one of the columns, then closed it out so I could open it and it would no longer be sorted (the sort screwed up all my headings), and the sort was saved! Why did it save my sort without asking if I wanted to save the changes?Hi Julia,
System Preferences > General > Ask to keep changes when closing documents
This may recover the previous version:

There is a new email address on my phone in the apple id password box. My password will not work. How did this happen and how can I change it back?
Of course your password shouldn't work on a different Apple ID. This can happen for many reasons, no worries, just sign out back back in using your own ID.

I've tried to clear the cache and delete the cookies from gmail, but neither has worked. I can access gmail from my phone and through IE but not firefox. I also use the gmail gadget on my igoogle page and it does not work either.
Top of your browser click on Firefox, select Options
Select "Use Custom Setting for History"
Then click show cookies, then remove All Cookies
Close browser and restart, should work nicely
Simple fix (cause of the problem, since you select copy Cookies and History, Favs from Explorer they are clearly not compatible, so that is why you get the error)
Firefox guys need to fix this is serious challenge for new users. -
I purchased an audiobook in I tunes on my computer, but cannot figure out how to download it on my phone....it always lets me download purchases of movies and tv shows but doesnt show an option for audiobooks
Oh alright -- I manage to resolve my own stupidity quite abruptly, actually.
Shortly after posting this, I annoying took another gander at iTunes Store settings. To my own idiocy, I must have unchecked "Show iTunes purchases in the cloud" at some point. In my defense, though, the availability of songs in iCloud threw me off quite a lot.
Ha ha -- anyways, if anyone else is having the same problem, check there.
