The number of contacts on my Macbook,iPhone and iCloud are all different. So when i tried to import contacts which i thick are called vCards from my address book on to my iCloud through the options menu on icloud a message came up saying "invalid vCards"? Any ideas? Really want to get this sorted if i could
Cheers

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.

    What version do you have?

    What goes to your iPad/iPhone is controlled in iTunes.

    My hard drive fried and had to be replaced. I'm trying to install CS4 from my original discs but keep getting this error message - "One or more of the required components of Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Standard failed to install correctly". A customer service rep gave me a link to download off the Adobe site, but when I try to open the file to run it, I get this error message - "A problem occurred extracting the archive".
    Can anyone help?

    Yep.  Nothing happens at all. Windows tries to execute the uninstaller, but I don't get any other screen and all activity stops for the MSI.  I monitored it in Process Monitor and the MSI executable appears, but is quickly ended, like it couldn't find anything or something.
    It's as if windows has a blank entry in Programs and Features, because it used to show the size of the Adobe application in the "Size" column.  Now it's just blank.  Link to screenshot below:

    Note the install date.  That's when I was able to successfully reinstall it.  Now I can't even do that.  I should also mention I tried Revo Uninstaller.  It deleted one small registry key, but nothing changed.
    By the way, is the CS cleaner supposed to ask for a disc in the drive when you run it?  It refused to run unless I had one in it, so I used my install dvd.

  • While trying to import photos from my Canon 5D markIII, iPhoto displays an error message which says unreadable format and the following files could not be imported. Please advise???

    the screen shot does not display (a Forum bug ) and if it did it does not answer the questions
    Seriously we can not see you and if you refuse to answer simple questions we can not help
    Need information to help
    what version of iPhoto? Is OS X 10.8 as you state correct for the OS? Has it ever worked? What has changed since it worked? Will Image Capture  ( in your applications folder) import the photos? How are you importing - USB to the camera? USB card reader? built in card reader?
    Any other clues that would help a total stranger who can not see you or your computer assist you?

  • I am trying to print labels from my address book, and when I change it to have the first names first, only some names work.  Does anyone know what the problem is or how to fix it?

    I want to print labels from my address book, but when I try to put first names first, only some will work.  Does anyone know why this is happening and how to fix it?

    Hi MollyPhloot07,
    I'm glad you found the coupons.com app and you might also want to take a look at the GroceryIQ app from the same company.  Please note that at this time, printing is only support from iPad to HP wireless inkjet printer.  That's most likely the reason why your Canon isn't displaying when attempting to print.  The other way to go might be emailing the coupons you want to your email address, then open that email and print from a conventional desktop or laptop computer.
    Hope this helps!

  • Iphone and ipad are with different carriers, can i use the same apple id on both?

    Hi all,
    I am having some difficulties with setting up my new ipad, i have a different telecommunications carrier for my iphone to my ipad, however my appleID does not allow me to enter another mobile number for my ipad.   When i set up the ipad to my appleID, it automatically registered my iphone # as my contact for messaging.   Is there any way to change the messaging number for the iPad yet still use the same appleID?

    Yes. I use the same Apple ID on four different iDevices. You can sync the contacts with iCloud or with your computer and have them on both devices. You can sync all of the apps as well. If the apps are not in iTunes on your computer - you can download them to the iPad with the same Apple ID. You can also restore the iPad from a backup of the phone to transfer your settings, app data and your contacts.
    iPhone only apps will be half size on the iPad screen but will still work as long - you can enlarge the size of the apps - but they will be pixelated on the screen.

  • I tried to set up a new library for my old ipod nano so i could update songs on it however when i tried to import songs from a cd it crashed and i had to end task therefor not getting to sync the new songs with ipod nano. now i cant find old library

    However during the process of adding new songs itunes crashed and i had to end task therefor not getting the chance to sync the new songs onto ipod nano. later when i plugged in my current ipod touch all my songs have disappeared and i cant find the original itunes library i had for it! is there anyway to get it back? i have tried pressing shift when opening itunes but still cant find the original itunes that i had!!

    Since all of your music came from your computer in the first place, then it should still be there and should be included in your backup copy of your computer.
    " it told me when i pluged hers in 2 ipods could not use the same account"
    This is not true.  You have misunderstood.
    You can sync as many ipods/iphones/ipads as you like to one one library.

  • I took photos and they saved in my camera roll. they were there the next morning. I took more pictures and they are all gone. why did they not save and can i get them back ?

    I took photos on my iPhone on yesterday and they all saved. I looked at my photos the next day and they were still there. I took more photos and now none of the last photos that I took in the last two days are there. Why did they not save? Can I get them back? My storage was not full. I just updated my iPhone to ios 7.1 a few days before.

    Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
    Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

  • I clicked on Firefox update button. Once the 3.6 was upgraded, now my images and pictures are all blurred.

    A couple of days ago, my system said Firefox update available. It encouraged me to upgrade to 3.36 for faster and better connection. I did just that. After words I logged into Facebook and then logged out. I logged into another favorite website. Immediately I noticed every image or picture on internet, website etc became completely burred. I can't tell most faces and it hasn't changed back. How do I change back to older version so that I have good pictures/images I need? I need to see pictures properly. Also, google itself on home a page looks blurry.

    Check that you do not run Firefox in compatibility mode or with a reduced screen resolution.
    You can check that in the "Compatibility" tab in the Properties via the right-click context menu of the Firefox desktop shortcut.
    Make sure that all items are de-selected in the "Compatibility" tab of the Properties window.

  • I force shutdown my MacBook Pro and when I reopened my laptop, my files and apps are all gone.

    I force shutdown my MacBook Pro by pressing the shutdown button for a long time and when I reopened my laptop, my files and apps are all gone.
    When I reopened my laptop, it said that some files have been deleted or hidden (I don't know if it said hidden, I don't remember). my dock and wallpaper were set back to default.
    This isn't my first time force shutting my MacbookPro.
    How can I restore/recover back my stuff?
    i heard time machine restores your stuff back.
    And please don't tell me to go to apple because I have made an appointment with them but I'm still worried.
    Please if you know anything about this please tell me anything you know.
    Please help me.

    Given that you sound a nervous wreck and a neophyte in matters Mac, it would be safest that you put the Mac away, go take a chill pill, grab a bite, get some rest. Then take the Mac to its scheduled appointment with Destiny, er, the Apple Genius.
    There's a good possibility of data loss and munging around unknowing, following instructions that will probably be hard to grasp will only increase the amount of damage.

    My MacBook Pro, running 10.7.3, does not recognize when my iPhone and iPad are on the same network, thus it does not synch.  Any ideas?

    Try the basics first:
       Change your router channel number.  Most times this works & is all you have to do.
    Disconnect & reconnect your modem.  unplug it for about 10 seconds.  Plug it back in.  Do the same for Apple’s routers.  Wait for everything to reboot.
    System Preferences>Network
    Click the Assist Me button.
    In the next window that pops up, click the Diagnostic button & do the necessary.
