  • When i put my own contacts into my iphone 3gs and deleted existing ones, the same happened on my mums iphone 4? my iphone was hers previously, but has been unlocked by o2, we have different networks and were 12 miles apart when i did it!

    My mum upgraded last week from iphone 3gs to iphone 4, I got the iphone 3gs unlocked as of this morning and proceeded to remove her contacts and put my own in.
    Several hours later she came home from work to find her contacts on the iphone 4 had been replaced with the same list i had put on mine!
    We have different networks, different itunes accounts etc, I can't understand why or how this has happened or most importantly how to fix it as she has lost all her numbers and is understandably very very cross....

    contacts are not visible in back up, but if she restores from that back up - contacts will come back to phone. Then all her apps and music have to be synced back again. She will also have all other personal info return to the phone, but all that info will be as old, as back up itself.

  • I recently updraded the oporating system on my 4S phone and now I can't get my email.  I've rebooted several times to no avail. What should I do to get this thing working again?

    I recently upgraded my phone software to iOS 6 and now my email will not download.  I have tried to reboot the phone to no avail.  Anyone have any suggestions as to how I can get this phone working again?

    You can't merge the backups, you'll have to delete the backup of your old phone.  If it says it's currently in use when you try, that will normally clear up on its own but may take 3-5 days to do so.  Give it a few days and try deleting the old backup again.
    In the meantime, you can create a manual backup of your new phone on your computer by connecting it to your computer, opening iTunes, clicking on the name of your phone in iTuens, going to the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and clicking Back Up Now.  Also go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.  Then you'll be safe until you can start backup up to iCloud again.

  • My iPhoto after a big clean, stopped to work. What should I do to get it back working ???

    Hello,
    I'm having big troubles to use my Iphoto. A while ago I did a big clean of the library so I transferred all my photo in a esternal hard disk and then I cancelled all the pictures from Iphoto. After that , my Iphoto stopped to work as before. Now it get stuck once I open a picture and it is impossible to slide my pictures and to make corrections. What can I do to have back my Iphoto working ???
    PLS HELP !
    TKS

    Restore from your back up from before you did this "clean up" is the simple solution. Other than that:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • I can't transfer songs purchased on my iphone 3gs through itunes to my windows 7 pc. I've done it in the past, but now I can't. What should I do?

    I have a iPhone 3gs and I purchased 30 songs and an audio book on my iphone through itunes.  I manage my own songs on my PC's itunes.  I tried to drag and drop my legally purchased songs and audiobook onto the itunes library on my PC.  It will not allow me to do this.  When I purchase songs on my PC through itunes, I can drag and drop songs to the iphone, but it won't allow me to do it from phone to pc.  I checked a number of sites trying to find an answer.  Many of them recommend updating the itunes version.  I started to do this, but at the beginning of the update it said I might lose files on my iphone since they weren't transferred to my PC library.  I stopped the upgrade, because past upgrades have wiped out all songs, ringtones, books and apps from my phone.  (The phone and PC are all authorized.) Could someone please tell me a simple straightforward way to copy the phone files onto my pc via itunes? 

    When conntecting to a public Wi-Fi conenction, here's what you do. I'll use the public Wi-Fi for Starbucks as an example. Turn on the Wi-Fi adapter on your Mac and choose "attwifi". When it connects, open your Web browser. You'll then be re-directed to a screen where you need to accept the terms and agreements when using the connection. Once you agree to the terms and agreements, you'll be granted access and you can surf the Internet.

  • I am synching my ipad and iphone with icloud. Events put in calendar go to the iphone, but if i enter an event on the iphone, it does not go to the ipad. What do i do to get this to work both ways?

    I am synching my ipad and iphone with icloud. Events put in calendar on ipad  go to the iphone calendar,, but if i enter an event on the iphone calendar, it does not go to the ipad. What do i do to get this to work both ways?

    OK Vicky, good clues...
    See if this helps...
    Open Keychain Access in Utilities, use Keychain First Aid under the Keychain Menu item, then either check the Password under that item, change it, or delete it and start over. See if there are duplicates, should be one for Incoming & one for Outgoing.
    Resetting your keychain in Mac OS X...
    If Keychain First Aid finds an issue that it cannot repair, or if you do not know your keychain password, you may need to reset your keychain.

    I put a calendar event into my iPhone (using iCloud calendar) but it does not show up in my Outlook iCloud calendar.  Any idea what i am doing wrong?

    Are you sure that you put the event on your iCloud calendar?  You might want to check Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar to be sure you have selected the calendar listed under your iCloud account as your default.

  • My old appleID use email with domain already deactivate. So I changed my appleID and primary email and now I can not access iCloud with iOS7. ICloud shows my old appleID but I can't change it. How do I get iCloud to work with my updated ID?

    My old email that using register for apple ID cannot access/check any mail because that domain already deactivate.
    So I changed my appleID and primary email and now I can not access iCloud with iOS7. ICloud shows my old appleID but I can't change it. How do I get iCloud to work with my updated ID?

    Hi ccharat,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you did a good job editing your Apple ID and primary email address, but you didn’t sign out of iCloud on your iOS device before hand. What you may need to do in this situation is go back to the Apple ID website and edit your Apple ID and primary email address back to the email address that is signed in with iCloud (there is no need to verify the account after editing it back to the old account, just changing it back is enough). Once your Apple ID is back to the original account, delete the iCloud account from the iOS device and be sure to keep all info on the device when prompted. After you delete the iCloud account, go back to the website and edit your Apple ID and primary email address back to the new address. Once it is back to the account you would like, you can sign into the iCloud on the iOS device with that new account and merge all of the data when prompted. Please use the following article as a reference.
    iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5223
    Change your Apple ID temporarily
    If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't help, try these steps:
    Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
    Go to Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
    Scroll down and tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
    Tap “Keep on My [Device]” or “Delete from My [Device].” In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
    Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
    Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
    Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.
    I hope this helps,

  • Used to convert all my videos into iPhone mp4 format using Any Video Converter - then add it to my iPhone 3GS. But last few days, I cant add video files to iTunes. and the iTunes doesnt even specify the reason except for that "files are not supported"

    Everyting was perfect earlier. Used to convert all my videos into iPhone mp4 format using Any Video Converter - then add it to my iPhone 3GS. But last few days, I cant add video files to iTunes. and the iTunes doesnt even specify the reason except for that "files are not supported"
    Everything is fine.
    -They are the right format
    -Quicktime is updated
    -I have tried simply dragging them into the 'movie' library
    -I have tried going to file<add file to library
    Nothing works, has anyone else had this problem and found a way around it?
    Any and all help appreciated.

    In addition to Mike's suggestions,  you only have 4GB of RAM and Mavericks does use more RAM than other versions. You may also want to look at the apps that startup on login and the possiblity of upgrading RAM.

    Should I use a network switch and plug my Yamaha A/V receiver and Yamaha DVD into it, then into the wireless router? Then the net into the routers net port???
