I installed Facetime on my Mac but it doesnt show "Contacts" . Every time I sign in to my account, I can only see the icon"Next" but nothing happens when I click that. Is there an way to uninstall and reinstall facetime ?
Is there a way to uninstall and reinstall Facetime on Mac ? The present version simply doesn't work. It shows me no "Contacts'. Infact once I click Next after I login, nothing at all happens. The video works fine though, I can see ,myself. But I have used Facetime a couple of times in the past from this same MAC.
Hence I wanna know if there's a way to uninstall and reinstall Facetime. Infact it doesn't even allow me to uninstall Facetime , every time I try it says, 'your Mac OS X needs Facetime'. PLEASE HELP !!!

My iphone4 and my ipad mini were synced to my computer, but now I don't seem to be able to see all of my content nor my photo stream. I did see everything there several weeks ago, so I know it worked. How do I access those from my computer. I can't find how to sign on.

What you've outlined in this part of the post is all that icloud stores for you outside of the backup. If you want to restore from the icloud backup you will then have for all practical purposes a carbon restoration back to your device if you restore from the icloud backup.

Syncing your device with itunes will then enable you to remove whatever photos you wish to remove from your device deleting them with the computer and not the iphone.

Do you keep your data backed up?
If not, you should always do so*:
http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
You never know when a hard drive or a directory might go bad. Having a bootable clone is a must.
That link also shows you some tools you can use to recover data.
If you aren't backed up, try buying those tools first, before attempting to repair the directory.
Directory issues can be fixed with these tools*:

How to I get music I purchased before the iCloud was created to show up on my new authorized iPhone? Right now I can only see the Apps I recently purchased on the actual phone but older music I purchased on my CPU using the same Apple ID doesn't appear.
Does any music show in the Purchased tab on the iTunes store app on your phone ? Music can't be re-downloaded in all countries, and even where it can be it will only appear whilst it remains in the store. Do you have your purchases on your computer and/or on a backup of your puchases so that you can sync them to your phone ?

Help! Is there a way to uninstall and reinstall Mail?
Here's my issue...
I'm still on an iMac ver. 10.2.8. Prehistoric, I know.
Almost daily, my Mail will suddenly start retrieving over a thousand or so "New" messages. These emails are not new, but just a re-retreiving of my incoming mail from the last few days or weeks. It doesn't matter if I've deleted mail, responded or otherwise. It just suddenly retrieves the last thousand or so emails that I've already been sent.
CLUE- Every time this happens, I also get a single strange email. There is no content to read/see, no subject in the header, and no email address that it's coming from! I would try blocking this specific spammer (if that's what the problem is) but there's no visible email address to block...
This happens randomly, and now sometimes twice a day. It takes me almost an hour each time to filter out the doubled, tripled, and quadrupled emails!
Here's what's awful... I was away for a couple days, and I got hit with this enough times that when I open mail, I have over 12,000 new emails, but before I can do anything, mail crashes! I can't imagine how the heck I would go about fixing this!
Do I need to uninstall and reinstall? How would I go about doing that?
I'm not very tech savvy!
PLEASE HELP! Thanks so much in advance for any help you can give!Hi Ernie,
Thanks again for taking the time to help me out...
I'm not even exactly sure what the "server" is, but yes, I can actually check my email via the Internet through webmail. And the messages never repeatedly retrieve there, but I'd prefer to use Mail if I can fix this. as it's much easier to use.
When I open up Mail, before it crashes, there are 4117 that it's trying to retrieve, but there are 10878 existing messages, but I'm not able to delete very many before it crashes.

Are there some of those I can delete? If at all possible, I'd like to keep some of my existing messages, but at this point, I'll nix anything just to fix the problem!
Thanks again for all of your guidance, Ernie!

Try disabling a/v software and turning off the Firewall on your PC.
Disable antivirus software
Turn-Windows-Firewall-on-or-off
Then try syncing your iPod.
If that doesn't help click here. iPod touch sync support -
I had previously purchased a DVD disk from Amazon. I did get the program to install today. However it continues to loop back to the screen where you accept the licensing agreement. I had lost the previous serial number and was given a new one by Adobe.
After trying over and over again to install the version from their download, I purchased a new copy from Amazon. I am still getting the same loop on the software where it asks you to Accept the Licensing Agreement. Short of reformatting my hard drive and starting with a clean PC, I have no idea what to try. Is the previous software installed somewhere? I had uninstalled it prior to downloading and installing the new software. Any help is appreciated!I'm going to try reinstalling Windows 7 and installing the software that way. I've reinstalled it before so am not concerned about taking that step. If I need further assistance, I'll add a reply. Thanks!

i can not chat or private message, i can post to others. what do i do
Your UserAgent string in Firefox is probably messed up by another program that you installed. <br />
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Agent]
type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter <br />
''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.'' <br />
Filter = '''general.useragent.''' <br />
Right-click the preferences that are '''bold''', one line at a time, and select '''''Reset'''''. <br />
Then restart Firefox
Once that is fixed, see if chat and private messaging are still giving you a problem. -

I want to change my iCloud account. Buying iPad we gave a virtual (forwarding) email address.
We need to change to a real address.
But when we try to change the iCloud account, we can only change the password.
Note: we don't have a Mac, only an iPad and Windows.Welcome to the Apple Community.
Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple, Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too. -
After uploading to the cloud, i lost access to some of my songs. The library still shows the information and there is a cloud download icon but the font color would seem to indicate it has been deactivated (i.e. nothing happens when I click on it).
Problem closed (although not resolved). After working with Apple support, no resolution was found. I asked for a refund of the iTunes match purchase price, which was granted. Interestingly the support tech, who was very nice if not particularly helpful from a technical point of view, spun the "resolution" of refunding my iTunes match purchase price as a positive one, here is a quote from the final email
"I'm glad to hear that you're not having issues with the songs you've purchased. Nothing makes Apple happier than to hear that our customers concerns have been rectified."
It is notable that I never had an issue downloading music directly purchased thru the iTunes store, the only issue that existed was downloading songs that I ripped from my CD collection and "matched".
I'm happy that I received my money back, however I wish that the iTunes Match service worked for me (I was looking forward to this service). I'm most upset at the time I wasted trying to fix this problem.
I'll now download music the old fashioned way: syncing with iTunes directly. -

When you have a compatible Numbers file in icloud (from Numbers on a mac), then when you invoke Numbers on a device, that file immediately shows up in the main window that lists all documents in Numbers. (Same thing for Pages.)
I haven't used Numbers, only Pages, so I just made a test. Created a Numbers file on the mac and "move to" iCloud. On my iPhone, the file didn't show up - hmm. Then I remembered I had turned off wifi and in settings have 3G data for documents turned off. When I turned on wifi and went back to Numbers, the file appeared.
I suspect you need to import the Excel file into Numbers and then save it as a Numbers file to iCloud, using "move to".
Using Mountain Lion and latest iOS and Numbers/Pages. -

I have an iPhone 4s. My problem is that I can't see the icon of FaceTime and iMessage. I need to use these apps. What should I do?

FaceTime:
Check Settings>FaceTime>ON and check Settings>General>Restrictions>FaceTime>ON. There is no icon, on the 4 & 4S FaceTime is accessed through contacts. Go into your Contacts, access the contact you want to FaceTime with and you will see a tab at the bottom of their contact card. You can also access FaceTime by going into your Phone app, select dialling keypad, dial number, press call and an option for FaceTime on the keypad will appear. It should be noted that FaceTime has been removed from iPhones sold in some Middle Eastern countries at the express wish of the respective Governments.
iMessage:
Check Settings>Messages>iMessage>ON. The icon is the same as your SMS icon. This support document will explain how to use iMessage http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3529
