I have Lion and I have an iPad. The contacts on the two machines are not properly linked using iCloud (I can create groups and add names, but sometimes the names are not updated between the machines)

The problem I am seeing is that there are contacts on the iPad that are not showing up on the Mac

On the iPad, look in contacts and see if you have more than one group. If it says "all contacts" on the top and there is no red slash to chose lists, then you have just one group. If you see the slash and can choose contact groups, then obviously you have more than one. You probably have a mail account on the iPad setup for contacts and iCloud also setup for contacts.
Go to that mail account on your computer and export those contacts to a vCard file, and import that to iCloud contacts (using the web interface for each). Now with one list, turn contacts off for that account on your iPad so you don't see duplicates.

I installed iOS 7 and it deleted some of my contacts, as expected, so I just resaved them all. There's one particular number that will save but in my messages, it shows up as the number instead of the name saved. How do I fix it? And why is it doing that?

I had this problem too, I fixed it by going to my settings and under general at the bottom there is a reset option, go there. One of the options should be reset network settings, select that one. I’m not sure why it happens but that worked for me; hope you have the same luck!

Install ClamXav and run a scan with that. It should pick up any trojans.

Wanted to use Icloud to back up pictures and Itunes - it is running os 10.6.4. I have an original IPAD, nothing syncs without connecting. Do I need to purchase operating system updates? Wasn't sure what 10.6 Leopard is?

Snow Leopard, Mac OS X 10.6, is not iCloud compatible. You need to upgrade to Lion, Mac OS X 10.7, via a download from the app store...$29 (US), provided you had at least 10.6.6. You can upgrade to 10.6.8 for free as part of the software updated function, then go to the app store and purchase the Lion download.
When you do that, before installing Lion, make a copy of the Lion Installer from the Applications folder where it downloads to some other location, such as your Documents folder, so you have a backup copy.
For Lion you must have at least an Intel Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7, or Xenon processor, 2 GB memory though 4 GB is better and 7 GB free space on the hard drive.
As part of 10.7.2 you end up with the iCloud connection.

Have not been able to use keynote if it's linked to icloud. It just starts and turns off quickly. No problem if I toggle off using icloud. Any ideas.

Have you updated to the latest level of Keynote on your iPad? Keynote 2.0.1 (1075) - Check Settings > Keynote
If so, there isn't much that you can do other than report this bug to Apple http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html
You could try restarting or resetting your iPad.
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).

I was trying to get the iOS 8.2 on my iPhone 5 but then it stopped and my phone is now on recovery mode I have pictures I need and they did not all fit on iCloud how can I use the phone again with ALL my pictures and videos without restoring it?

Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes? If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created.

My ipad is saying I have app updates to install, but won't allow me to update. The update screen is blank. Any ideas on how to fix?

There are a number of other threads from people reporting a problem with a blank Updates tab in the App Store app - it looks like there is a problem at Apple's end which they need to fix.
Some posts are suggesting that you if you go into the Purchased tab in the App Store app you might be able to update the apps from there, though you will need to scroll through the list to find those with updates and individually update them.

My Mac Book Pro will be 4 years old in Sept. I now have Snow Leopard and bought an IPhone 4S this week. I know I need Lion to use ICloud. Can I upgrade to Lion with a computer this old?

As long as it meets the minimum requirements:

Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
At least 2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)

Pay no attention to iinami, the amount of replies to people saying their handsets must have been jailbroken everytime iTunes throws out an error is tremendous. (Clearly you don't need to have any real knowledge to get to level 3 on these forums, let's hope apple's geniuses know a lot more than some of their customers.)

Solution below.
Error 9
This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

All ISP-provided equipment is junk. You could get a decent router and connect it to the Verizon router in bridge mode. It should cost about $ 30.

Have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

I use to have a iTunes account with my old computer, and I have lost all my iTunes music, some purchased, some downloaded from another source. Now I'm using a brand new computer (Windows) and I have opened a NEW iTunes account, but I now I need to figure out if it is possible to recoup my music content that I originally had. I had, I believe around close to 300 songs on my account ;(......Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Again, Ronald

Now remove all your info and update the old AppleiD/iTunes account and use only that account.
You cannot transfer items between iTunes accounts.
You can redownload all the content.

Please advise.

What's your OS? Acrobat 8 is not compatible with any modern OS.
