Are you trying to set up your own iDevice and that is why you want your own Apple ID?
Do you realize that any content that you have already purchased using her ID will still have to be used if you want to update apps or download purchases again for free? ITunes and App Store content is tied to the ID used to make the purchase. Furthermore, if you use her ID to download a purchased app for free on your own device, you can lock yourself out of your ID for 90 days.
Back to the question at hand .... Did she use your email address as the rescue email address for her Apple ID?

Apparently cookies was turned off in Safari. I rarely use it so I have no idea how that happened. Anyway, turning them on seems to have cured the problem.

Good morning.
Apple no longer includes Flash with the new Macs. So, if you run into things that require Flash you must, if you want to view them, go to the Adobe site and download the Flashplayer as Paul_31 suggested.
Enjoy your day.

My old emails and documents are not showing up in email or finder both from the same date and I cannot find them anywhere. I do not believe I have any archive settings on. Any idea how I get them to show up?

Mum and I used to share same Apple ID. Now she has her own. But when i turn on iCloud on my phone. All her address book linked to mine. What should I do?

I am so sorry, i am very new to this community. Mum and I used to share apple id. Also I created the iCloud with my apple id. Then i created my mum a new apple ID for her. However, her addressbook and phonebook still synced with my phone through iCloud. What should I do?

Welcome to the Apple community.
If you have correctly set up a separate iCloud for your mother, then your contacts should not be syncing with your mothers. Are you absolutely sure that they are syncing and not just the same contacts.

My daughter put my sim card in and loged into my itunes acount but now she has put her own sim in and deleted my contacts that showed up on her phone and it has deleted all the contacts of my phone too, how can i get them back and stop it happening again.

My daughter but in my sim card and loged into my iunes account to get apps untill she got her own sim but my contacts appeared on her phone so when she got her own sim she deleted the contacts of her phone it deleted them of mine too. how do i get them back?

The SIM has nothing to do with that. She used your Apple ID to buy apps/music, thus your contacts that were synched with iCloud got replicated on her phone. Any changes she made got reeplicated on her phone. There is no way to recover the deleted contacts unless you backed up your phone.
Your daughter needs to get her own Apple ID.

I made apple ID for my iPod but now I've got a iPhone and a Mac. It asks me to answer the verification questions but ive forgotten them. It then says to change verification questions verify with an email sent to a email but it isn't the right email?

I have a apple id but i made it ages ago on my iPod. now i have a iphone. I have forgotten my verification answers so it tells me to verify a email sent to me. but the email is the wrong one. What do i do?

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.

HT4759 I changed my email for my Apple ID. Now I cannot access my iCloud account.

I have had to change my apple account id email. I now find that I keep gettting the message that the username or password is incorrect when trying to access icloud account How can I sync my new apple id email and my icloud account information. The Apple id email on my icloud account information is the old email and is greyed out.?

Hello there, HK55.
The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great follow-up information for once you've changed your Apple ID:
Apple ID: What to do after you change your Apple ID
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5796
For iCloud on an iOS device it recommends the following:
iOS 6 and later: Go to Settings > iCloud.
If you signed out before changing your Apple ID, enter your current Apple ID to sign in. The data from your iCloud account will download to your device.
If you're still signed in with your previous Apple ID:
Scroll down and tap Delete Account. Depending on what iCloud options are turned on, you'll be asked to confirm that you want to delete data from your device. To confirm, tap Delete. (If you're using iOS 7 and have Find My iPhone turned on, you'll be asked to enter the password for your previous Apple ID. Enter the password, then tap Turn Off.) The data will be deleted from your device, but not from iCloud.
Enter your current Apple ID to sign in. The data from your iCloud account will download again to your device.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

I save web site passwords, but it does not consistently enter them when I log onto the same site. Seems to have started occurring after I installed Norton Internet Security 2012. Anyone aware of this issue and how to resolve?

It works fine for a day or so, but seems to fail the next day.

Websites may be using autocomplete=off to prevent Firefox from saving and filling the name and password.
You can remove autocomplete=off with a bookmarklet to make Firefox save the name and password.

What are the Aliases set against your Own Apple ID in Messages Menu > Preferences > Accounts > iMessages account.
As has been said a share Apple ID here will sync (Display) everything from all iOS devices using the same iPhone Numbers and Apple ID
I have two iPhone (therefore two Numbers and had to say "No" to adding them as active Aliases. (Send and Receive Names or IDs)
If an email that you share has been Added as an Alias in your setings you will have this "Overlap" issue.

My iPad and iPhone have the same syncing calendar but my Windows 7 PC with iCloud does not sync/show the same calendar...please help!

My iPad and iPhone have the same syncing calendar but my Windows 7 PC with iCloud does not sync/show the same calendar...please help!

iCloud will not sycn a calendar from an external source. In order to use iCloud to sync it, you would have to move it to iCloud and stop using Google. I know how to do that on a Mac, but I'm not sure how to do it on a PC. If you're using Outlook, I suspect you export it as an .ics file to your desktop, then import it to the iCloud account in Outlook. I'm sure you could use Google to find the specific steps.
However, there's really no reason not to just use Google to sync your calendar across your devices. Instead, just continue to use Goole calendar on all your devices and they should stay in sync. Take a look at this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0Jj0KFgbYI.
