I downloaded the latest update on my MacBook Pro last week. Now I keep getting a pop-up that iCloud wants my password from an email login I haven't had in a year. I can't find where to delete that email login.  iCloud is also showing my new email login, plus a bogus one I accidentally created trying to fix this problem. Now the calendar on my MacBook Pro won't sync with my iPhone5.

It sounds like you have the Find my iphone Activation lock for sure. Go to www.icloud.com/find and see if you put in that Apple ID that is coming up and yoru password to see if you are able to sign into the account that way to turn it off. If you are unable to, you will have to contact AppleCare by phone (chat cannot handle account lock outs or forgotten password due to not being able to verify your identity) and see if they can reset it. And are you sure the Apple ID that is coming up yours?

    I recently got the new iPhone 5c I used icloud to back everything up from my 4s to my new 5c.  Now, I keep getting a pop up that says Continue Restoring?  (This iPhone has not been backed uprecently because it has not finished being restored. Would you like to finish downloading any remaining purchases and media before backing up, or delete them along with any app date?)
    I seleted to finish downloading because I didn't want to lose anything.  It still will not finish downloading and I have tried this several times.
    What do I need to do to that I can get my iphone to back up and so that I can install the new iOS?

    Hello there, Brandifoote24.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers up an explanation of what you're error signifies:
    iCloud: Understanding Backup alert messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4576
    "This iPhone has not been backed up recently because it has not finished being restored. Would you like to finish downloading any remaining purchases and media before backing up, or delete them along with any app data?"
    This message is displayed if your iOS device has been trying to complete a restore for more than three days. This can occur if your restore has been interrupted due to network connectivity issues or some other problem occurs.
    Being that this is the case, you would want to go back to the article it seems you were referred to us from and try to restore from your icloud backup again:
    iCloud: Troubleshooting restoring an iCloud backup
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4036
    How do I restore an iCloud backup if my device is already set up for use?
    You'll need to erase all data and settings from your device, so first confirm that you have an iCloud backup to restore:
    Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage, then tap the name of your device to view a list of iCloud backups.
    Check the date of the backup you want to restore, because you'll be restoring only what iCloud backed up on that date.
    After confirming that an iCloud backup is available, follow these steps:
    Connect your device to a power source and make sure that it is connected to the Internet via Wi-Fi.
    Follow the instructions for restoring your iOS device from an iCloud backup, which include making sure that your device is using the latest version of iOS.
    If the issue persists, then I would troubleshoot Wi-Fi using the following article:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1398
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,

  • My Outlook calendar won't sync with my ipod touch and vice versa.  Wherever I input the info is where it stays. Contacts and notes sync but not calendar.

    My iPod Calendar won't sync with my Outlook Calendar and vice versa.  Wherever I input the information is where it stays.  My contacts and notes sync just fine.  Please help.  Very frustrated.  It used to work just fine.  I just upgraded to iTunes 10.2 version.

    I have the same problem since I updated to iTunes 10.2 Sue (I think). For me this was somewhere in January.
    I wasn't sure iTunes was the issue, until I read your post. I tested syncing a note, and that works fine.
    My 2nd generation Ipod Touch runs on IOS 4.2.1. It won't upgrade to 4.3.
    Possibly the synchonisation between iTunes 10.2 and IOS 4.2.1 doesn't work correctly.
    Has somebody else solved this isue? I use both calendars (on iPod Touch and on PC) for work and private matters.
    Otherwise I have to uninstall iTunes 10.2 and downgrade to 10.2.

  • I have a new MacBook Pro.  I keep getting the message (from all different programs) that they would like to access the keychain "login".  I have run keychain repair, and it won't stop!

    I have a new MacBook Pro.  I keep getting the message "Mail would like to use your keychain "login".  How can I make this stop?  I have run the keychain repair utility.

    Hi,
    With the Finder as the Front app go to the Go Menu > GO to Folder.
    Copy and Paste the bold text below into the text field
    ~/Library/Keychains
    Highlight the Keychain.
    Use the CMD + i Keys together (Keystrokes for Get Info from the File Menu)
    In the Info Panel that appears check the Ownership and Permission bit at the bottom.
    Example Pic
    Unlock Padlock
    Check your Shortmname Appears (the (Me) one).
    Open the Cogwheel icon
    If it is Greyed Out to "Make "Shortname (Me)" owner then you are the Owner.
    Check you have Read and Write Permissions.
    You may need to check the Ownership and Permission on the ~/Library itself (you can do the same Get Info on Folders as well as Files)
    If you don't Own it then, when you have changed that also Apply to Contents.

    fair enough.  No need for any unnecessary posts either.  You issue had been addressed ad nauseum already in this forum had you bothered to search this forum (as forum etiquette would dictate) before posting.
    In any case, I hope that your problem was solved.

  • I have the latest version of Pages 5.2 but I keep getting a message saying I must download the newest version to open my file, has anyone else had this problem?

    I have the latest version of Pages 5.2 but I keep getting a message saying I must download the newest version to open my file, has anyone else had this problem?

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.01 can not open Pages 5.2 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5.2 files can not be opened in Pages 5.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has removed over 95 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

    Archive/trash Pages 5, after exporting all Pages 5 files to Pages '09 or Word .docx, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

    okay I've done everything regarding the transfer process (via file>transfer purchases) and syncing, so everything on my iPhone device seems to have been transferred to my iMac... however, I still get that message ("There are purchased items on the iPhone..."), trying to upgrade the iOS Have tried several times the same process of hitting transfer purchases via file, but nothing seems to make that message go away!

  • I burned photos to a CD-R and the CD-R automatically ejected.  Now I keep getting an error message that says to complete the burn before I can quit iPhoto.

    I burned photos to a CD-R and the CD-R automatically ejected.  The photos are now on the CD-R.  Now I keep getting an error message that says to complete the burn before I can quit iPhoto.  I can not shut down the computer until iphoto shuts down.

    Hit Command + Option + esc on your keyboard and force quit iPhoto. I'm sure it just got stuck talking to your optical drive.

  • Why can't I download the latest update to my Macbook?

    I have 10.6.8 on my white Macbook from 2008. But I wan't the latest update, 10.7.2 or later, but I can't fin any update?
    Why?

    You have 10 6 8 which is Snow Leopard... If you want 10 7 2 you will need to Purchase Lion from the Mac Apps Store.
    First you need to check that your Mac meets the System Requirements for Lion...
    Lion Specs:

    If it does... then you need to Purchase and Install Lion...

  • My iphone calendar won't sync with icloud

    I just set up iCloud for the first time.  Everything seems to be working however the calendar on my iPhone 3GS (w IOS 5.0.1 update) calendar is not syncing with iCloud.  What am i doing wrong?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    When you say it won't sync with iCloud, do you mean with iCloud.com or iCloud on a mac.

  • My iPad calendar won't sync with my desktop calendar - any suggestions?

    When I write an appointment on my iPad2 calendar, it won't sync with my desktop? Any suggestions? I am on iCloud so when I write an appointment on my desktop it does go to my iPad.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.
