I can't seem to merge a redundant contact list with a current one. If I delete the redundant contact list I will lose all of my contacts that I have (still) been inadvertently adding using this as my default contact list.

When I was working with my old job I had a contact list on my phone that was associated with my job's personal email address. Now that I have a new mac and am now a new full time student I would like to use my new uni email address as my default contact list. I have now made this change but have only just realised that I have been adding contacts for a period of months using this now redundant list.
When I sync my computer with my phone (which is working great using iTunes), I am unable to get all of my recent contacts.
I have three groups:
"All contacts" - I understand this is all of my contacts on my phone
"All from My Mac" - This is my new list and constitutes around 80% of my contacts
"Contacts" - This is the old list from my previous employer and contains (I think) 100% of my contacts. Well all of my useful ones anyway - maybe 99%. I would like to delete this group as I don't use the email address anymore and don't work for them!
The end result that I am looking for, is a complete list of ALL of my contacts synced with my computer in Outlook, and to be able to delete my old work contact list!
Please help (you bunch of legends).
Dave

I have more than one copy of the same song in my iTunes. Some have the icloud symbol next to them and some do not. I need to clean this up but I am afraid to delete the songs for fear I will lose them.

On top of that my Mac keeps telling me my start up disc is full and I am deleting stuff like crazy!

Welcome to the  Discussion Forums
It won't be a problem if you delete your extra copies.
I don't download very much to my tv, I do sometimes if I'm in bed but usually I do it from itunes. However if you have not fully downloaded something to the tv it is possible to start the download from itunes as well, you have likely activated 'check for downloads fin itunes in some way, could be by opening itunes, selecting 'check or downloads' from the advanced menu or that you simply have automatically check for downloads set in your prefs and it has checked coincidentally.

My trial is about to end and I have never been able to use this.

Hi Suzi,
I would recommend you to use the Export PDF service instead (The Most Reliable Tool to Convert PDF to Word or Excel | Adobe ExportPDF) available at a price of US $1.99/mo Billed annually at US $ 23.88/year.

My iCloud address on the iPad needs to be changed. If I press "delete account" it tells me I will lose all the content including pictures. How can I change it? I see other people have had the same problem

I have had to change my e mail address but I cannot work out how to amend it on my iCloud account. If I press "delete account" the box appears telling me that I will lose all content including photos if I continue. The box asking for a password keeps appearing but I just press cancel and continue.
I have not attempted to upgrade to iOS 7 until this problem is sorted. Can anyone help please?

If you mean that you created a new icloud account using a new email address as the primary address, then when changing to that account on a device, all data maintained by the old account will be deleted. I was not aware that photos are included. But as for photos, ALWAYS sync them to a computer for archiving, never rely on icloud as your only backup.
If you want to keep the contacts, etc. data from the old account, then go to Settings>icloud and turn off the services, one at a time. When doing so, you are given the choice to keep the data local or delete from the device. Later, when doing Delete Account and logging into the new account, your data will sync up to it.
If, on the other hand, your changed email address is just an alias in the existig icloud account, then there's no reason to delete the account as the alias is just another link to the same account.

I cannot access my Itunes following latest update.Solution suggests take it off.If I do I have been told I will lose all my downloads.Is that correct.Is there a way around it?

Couldnt get onto Itunes following latest update.Help is suggesting delete it,but I have been told this will lose all my downloads(not just from Itunes).Is that correct.How can I get around this?(I am no techno buff so simple answers please. Subsequently resored system from before update but hasnt worked.Still no access to ITunes

Try the following user tip:
Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates
Under normal circumstances, an uninstall/reinstall doesn't touch your content. (That being said, it's still always a good idea to maintain a current backup at all times in case of disasters of any sort.)

I'm not receiving e-mail on my "New" iPad, and I want tdeleted my yahoo mail account and reinstall it. When I go to settings to delete the account, it says I will lose everything in notes, calendars, reminders, etc. Can I delete ONLY the e-mail account?

I'm not receiving e-mail on my iPad (3). I want to try deleting my yahoo mail account and reinstalling it, but when I go to settings to do this, it appears that I will lose my notes, calendars, reminders, etc. Is this right, or is there another way to do this?

Give it time. Yahoo has had persistent issues the past few weeks. wait 24 hours or so and then try again.

Is there a known problem with the iPhone 4 personal hotspot? I have not been able to use this feature for about 3 days with any of my other idevices - it does not come up as available.

My iphone 4 never had a problem with the personel hotspot until 2-3 days ago .
Now when I turn the hotspot on none of my other i-devices can see it. I have tried the turn on/off thing and I have tried the complete turn off holding the 2 buttons on both the phone and the other devices (ipad x 2 and ipods x 3). This is very frustrating.
Oh and I have spoken to my carrier it is not them.
Any suggestions?

Setting >> General >> Cellular >> Cellular Data Network >> Reset Setting
Restart (hold on/off button >> slide to power off)
I got same prob after update ios 6.1 (not sure during update to 6.0.1) iphone 5

HT1338 cannot update as my apple icon does not show update sofeware??? i was also on phone with someone and I got disconnected and no one has called me back. i have never been able to use this computer as the guy who put in my passowrds, put them in wro

i am not able to get into my MacPro notebook. person set up passwords i do not know???? he certainly did not use any password I use
therefore i cannot do much of anything. I got Apple to call me but when she transferred me, call was lost and no one has called me back.
my case no. is 405403541.

Did you purchase the Mac used? If so, the person should have erased the drive and reinstalled the original system and should have given you the install disks.
Good luck with your call to Apple.

Can I merge an earlier backup profile with a current one?

My PC had a big outage that required reinstallation of Windows 7. In the rush to get things restarted I re-entered email account details which started a new profile. I have a profile from before the outage and like to recover addresses and messages from that into the new profile. Can this be done and if so what is the process? I want to keep the contents of both profiles.

1. Apple IDs can't be merged.
2. Use the Deauthorize All command documented in this article.

After updating software on IPAD from computer says I have to reset IPAD to factory default and will lose all data???

After updading software on IPAD2 tells me I have to reset to factory default and will lose all data

Kinda.
Read the following in its entirty before doing anything.
Note that a "Restore" could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

My MACbook pro stopped connecting to my home network out of the blue. Keeps on asking me for the password although it is saved on keychain . Haven't changed anything, all of my other apple devices have not been affected

Tried this a few times over the last three days . Still same result.

I downloaded Firefox 4.0.1 and have not been able to use my DigitalPersona fingerprint login since. Will this be added on or can you tell me how to go back to using the older version of Firefox so I can use my fingerprint login again? Thanks

I have not been able to use my digitalPersona v4.11.3826 (fingerprint login) since I downloaded firefox 4.0.1. Will this be incorporated to the add-ons or if not, can you tell me what the easiest way is to go back to using the older version of Firefox?

EgisTec, who now provide the HP Simplepass application, have made an update of the scanner software for Firefox 4, for details see https://support.mozilla.com/questions/814397

I have never been able to use Firefox to view my OWA until I added the IE-Tab Add-on. Was this a known limitation for Firefox?

I have never been able to use Firefox to view my OWA (Outlook Web Access). It always prompts for creds that it doesn't accept anyway. Until I added the IE-Tab Add-on, was this a known limitation for Firefox?

Hi prime_anthony and thank you for asking. I do not think this is a Firefox limitation because I have been accessing my OWA too via Firefox on a Linux machine. I can login using my domain account and password without any problem and without using IE-Tab add-on.
It probably depends on the version of the Outlook Web Access or the Exchange Server. Newer versions of these already have Firefox supported.

HT1937 How can I get to use my phone? Much of it appears to be set up but when I try and make a call it tells me I have not been given access to this service

How can I get to use my phone? When I try and dial out it says: 'You have not been given access to this service'

Have you chacked with your carrier. The message you are getting seems to relate to a carrier issue and not something to do with the phone itself
