How can I use iCloud, but keep Outlook contacts separate from Yahoo/iPhone contacts?
I'm using a new laptop that uses Outlook and I want to share those contacts on my iPhone without merging them with personal and Yahoo contacts. Our tech guy told me to use my Apple ID, but that is what I use for iTunes, etc and when I used that ID it merged Outlook with my personal contacts which is what I don't want to do. Do I need to create a separate Apple ID for the laptop and use my old Apple ID for my Yahoo and iPhone?
The "All Contacts" view will consolidate all of your sources into one list. This is primarily for ease of use. Contacts synced from different sources, e.g. iCloud, Outlook, Yahoo, etc. are actually kept in separate data stores. There will be no cross-contamination of your address books.

Can you sync both iCloud and Google Calender at the same time?
Hi all,
I am an iCloud/MobileMe user, but have a Google Calender at work with other colleagues.
Is it possible to sync both to my iPad/iPhone at the same time?
I am yet to find a way to do this.

You can subscribe to both calendars on your iPhone/Pad etc, you can also subscribe to them on your Mac -
I have a New macbook air, purchased last week. There are time when internet runs slow or not at all. It is not the Verizon Fios as my IPAD's work fiine during these times.
Turn off the router. Turn back on. Wait until all the lights are lit properly.
Restart the computer.
A new Mac comes with 90 days of free tech support from AppleCare.

I have a PC at work and a Mac at home. Both run Itunes under same Apple ID account. Each computer's itunes library is common by around 75% of the songs. How can I sync both computers to a common song library, so that all songs can be updated for both computers? Will ITunes Match do that?
I solved this by reset of the Wifi (unplug cable and power to both modem and wifi ... wait 60 sec ... plug in modem cable and power ... plug in wifi power and LAN to modem ... restart AppleTV and Mac ... Turn Home Share 'OFF' in iTunes then back "ON" ... it took ~60 sec for the AppleTV to pick up my Mac in computers.

I received a phishing email supposedly from my bank and clicked on url - didn't enter any data though.Bank says to get ipad checked for viruses,but I understood ipad has built in security.I've cleared cookies in safari via settings. Anything else to do?
I know this has been solved as you reported, but I think you need to check with your e-mail provider. Did you also get this same e-mail on your computer? If you use the same ID for e-mail on computer and ipad, it should have appeared on both. It's very common spam. Check your computer to see if on it, the e-mail is in spam, or, if you deleted it on your ipad, check your recently deleted e-mails.
You might want to consider changing your password, though people sending spam, don't need it. My e-mail provider had me change my password, not because I was getting spam, but unknown to me, I was sending it! (You'll still get some spam, though.) It's when you learn that you're unknowingly sending spam...that you must change your password.
Hope this helps.
(Ss I was sending this, I just got an e-mail notification from the Nigerian... it got to my e-mail instead of going to spam.) -
HI! I have a new macbook air but having difficulty connecting to a router if I am about 10 meters away. My iMac, iPad, iPhones and iPods can connect easily. Is there something that I need to configure? I have no issues if I am close to it. Thank you!
Hello, If you are dealing with one of the really thin iMac's that have no superdrive, then the superdrive icon should not appear on the desktop when you plug it in, but when you put in a disk (CD, DVD, etc.) that should appear. If you go into disk utility, and look at superdrive, that should be clickable and not grayed out when you have it plugged in. If this does not show up in disk utility, go to Apple, and ask to speak to their supervisor, speaking to a customer service agent is like talking to a potato, nothing gets done. Good Luck!

After restoring my iphone 4 to factory settings, then restoring from a recent backup, my phone will reboot but keeps coming back to the "new setup or restore from backup screen". How can I by-pass this screen to go directly to the sync apps/music screen?
Well, it's certainly behaving as though the phone that was backed up was synced to a different iTunes library.
I'm going to throw one more thing out there... Yes, you backed it up to this computer... Was the phone previously set up to sync with this computer? Or was it syncing with a different computer and you just backed it up to this one?
You may have to end up setting it up as a new device and rebuilding the phone by manually re-syncing your data, apps, music, etc. to the phone.
Trying to keep your library on a different drive can be tricky. If iTunes starts up and the library isn't available, it may end up generating a new library ID, meaning that you could easily find yourself in exactly the position you're in now...
I'm curious why there was a need to restore your phone to begin with... It may not have any bearing on this at all, but it could. -
My iPad Air always freezes during FaceTime calls using wifi. I switch to my iPhone 5c on the same wifi, and it never freezes while I'm sitting in the same location. Is there maybe a setting I have that is causes this? I am up to date on the OS 7.1.1. Video and audio is froze on my end, only video freezes on the other end. It doesn't make a difference who makes the call either.
No, there isn't any setting that you are missing. Have you tried force closing FaceTime, and resetting your iPad?
In order to close FaceTime, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
If that does not make a difference, you could try resetting all settings, if you reset all settings you will have to enter all of the device preferences again in the settings app. That takes some time to accomplish, but you will not lose my data, media, apps or anything like that. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings.
If that doesn't help, the next step would be to restore the iOS software. Backup your iPad first, restore the iOS, then restore the backup.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings -
If I choose "restore from iTunes backup" to move everything from old iphone to a new one, will I still be able to use the old phone for music and apps? Can the old phone be docked up to that same computer every now and then? Or will the new and old phone overwrite each other in some way? In other words, are the two phones treated as different devices when the "restore" option is used to set up the new phone? Thanks in advance.
Yes, you can use the old iPhone as an iPod touch.

My iPhone is locked due to setting up a passcode after loading new version 7. I have tried to reset but keep getting turn of "find my iphone". I can't get into the phone to turn this off. What do I do now?
Try this - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212 - also you can sign into www.icloud.com and remote erase the phone
recovery mode restore as descibed in HT1808 might be your last resort though -
I have Mac itunes and a touch 2G. My wife has Win7 and touch 4G (both iOS 4.2.1). She got a new iphone, I now have her touch 4G, and am trying to sync it to my Mac itunes. The music and videos sync to the 4G, but apps & podcast will not. All are checked to sync. During sync, it gets to "determining apps to sync" then immediately goes to "finished syncing". No apps or podcasts from my Mac itunes are on the touch 4G.
You can only sync to one iTunes library but you can manage music and videos among different computer/libraries.
It appears that you are trying to sync with a different library.
- If you want to make the Mac you syncing computer:
--- Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by:
iOS: How to back up
--- Restore the iPod from that backup. Note that synced media like apps and music are not in included in the backup. -
Hi, I upgraded from iOS 5.1.1, to iOS 6, and it's ridiculously slow, I can't sync to my computer, (manually manage music), and all of my photos were gone. How can I get my photos back? It says restoring photos, but it's said that for two days now!
It just does't sync. I connect it to itunes, but nothing happens. Where it says how much space I have, it's just on ebig bar that says other. I can play my music on itunes, but not when i unplug it.
All of my photos were gone, i took and saved them with my ipod.
The photo app is saying restoring.
What should i do? -
HT1338 i have a new mac air . the usb wont work and i cant charge my i phone with it
please help me out . i have a new mac air . when i conect my cable to usb socket wont work . it wont charge my i phone either . whats wrong
I'm sure you've done everything like rebooting or testing other usb devices...have you tried to create a new user account and see if you get anything that way?, I would imagine you'd have to return the machine for an exchange at the Apple store.

My husband and I presently share his Apple ID on our respective 5c iPhones. I want my own iCloud account. I created an Apple ID for myself.
1} how do I change from his apple ID in my phone
2) how do I continue to use the joint iTunes account under his name
3) see below - how do I switch the iTunes account to my apple ID
Also, under a totally different subject. My husbands iPhone was just stolen while he was doing volunteer disaster work in the Philippines. Since he did not have internet access I was not able to wipe out his phone on Find My iPhone until about 8 hours after it was stolen. After he found a way to call me back in the states, I wiped out all his data using FInd My iphone, notified Verizon and they suspended service.
Because the nonplan iPhones are so expensive ($600 +) I think he will buy an Android when he returns. Is there any way to transfer what is on our iTunes account to his Android?
The Verizon service person told me that whoever stole it will not be able to use the phone as it has been reported stolen. I can not imagine that is correct as there seems to be a thriving secondary market online. Is that correct? I am concerned that some super technical person will be able to retrieve data that was purged via Find My iPhone.... Is there anything else I should do?Did you take a look at the new feature Apple - iOS 8 - Family Sharing ?
Apple - iCloud - Family Sharing
Up to now, songs bought from iTunes could only be played by the Apple ID that has been used to buy them.
If you set up Family Sharing, your daughter can also play your songs and use the same contact info as before.
If you don't want to do that, sync the contact info to the address book on your computer, and sync the info back, using iTunes:
Sync your iPhone, iPad and iPod with iTunes using USB
If the iPad already has her Apple ID and contact info on it, restore the phone from the latest iPad backup.
