I synced two of my email accounts via gmail's POP3 thing. But now my iphone's gmail inbox shows a random selection of emails (not most recent ones that are in my inbox). How can I make my iphone inbox match what I see when I log on using a PC?

I synced two of my email accounts via gmail's POP3 capabilities. But now my iphone's gmail inbox only shows a random selection of emails (i.e. right now it is May 31, 2013 but the emails in my inbox are a couple from Nov 12, a few from Oct 12, and then some way older than that and so on.When I log into my gmail from a computer, I see all my emails in the logical, standard order. How can I make my iphone inbox match what I see when I log on using a PC?

If you're trying to decide between using POP and IMAP, we encourage you to use IMAP.
Unlike POP, IMAP offers two-way communication between your web Gmail and your email client. This means when you log in to Gmail using a web browser, actions you perform on email clients and mobile devices (ex: putting mail in a 'work' folder) will instantly and automatically appear in Gmail (ex: it will already have a 'work' label on that email the next time you sign in).
IMAP also provides a better method to access your mail from multiple devices. If you check your email at work, on your mobile phone, and again at home, IMAP ensures that new mail is accessible from any device at any given time.
Finally, IMAP offers a more stable experience overall. Whereas POP is prone to losing messages or downloading the same messages multiple times, IMAP avoids this through two-way syncing capabilities between your mail clients and your web Gmail.

My Apple ID changed back to an old ID when I installed last update on my iPhone 5s. How can I change it back to match what is on my MacBook Pro and iPad?

Hi GlendaGirl,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you're unexpectedly seeing the incorrect Apple ID on your iPhone 5s. You can use these steps to sign out of iCloud on your iPhone 5s and sign in with the right Apple ID:
iOS 6 and later: Go to Settings > iCloud.
If you're still signed in with your previous Apple ID:
Scroll down and tap Delete Account [Sign Out in iOS 8.] Depending on what iCloud options are turned on, you'll be asked to confirm that you want to delete data from your device. To confirm, tap Delete. (If you're using iOS 7 and have Find My iPhone turned on, you'll be asked to enter the password for your previous Apple ID. Enter the password, then tap Turn Off.) The data will be deleted from your device, but not from iCloud.
Enter your current Apple ID to sign in. The data from your iCloud account will download again to your device.

Hey there! So I plugged in my ipod to my computer and it didn't show up where it normally does. I need to update my song list. How can I make it appear? It doesn't come up in iphoto either. A few days ago my sis plugged it into another computer but I don't know if she synched it to the other computer, and frankly, she won't remember. I have tried updating itunes, charging the ipod, restarting the ipod/computer, and the rest of what the apple site said to do. Ps I have the latest ipod touch
I need help stat! Please help!

I'd say your sister messed up and your iPod is toasted.
Think about it... She plugged it in to another computer, she doesn't remember what she did (yeah, right), and now your iPod is not being recognized by your computer...
Also take into consideration how old is your sister, and how much does she know about electronics?

Hello, osbybass.
Thank you for the question. This alert can mean that iTunes is recognizing applications on the iPad purchased by another Apple ID. If anyone in your household has an Apple ID, try authorizing the computer with their Apple ID and attempt to sync. If you are still experiencing issues, go through the troubleshooting steps in the attached article.

How can I make the spry accordion remember the panel open when I refresh the page or jump to a new page?

How can I make the spry accordion remember the panel open
when I refresh the page or jump to a new page?
I am using the accordion feature on all my pages as a
navigation aid. It has three panels. When you refresh the page the
panel goes back to the default pane... Is there a way of
controlling this so that the browser can remember the pane that is
open (say set a variable, cookie, other?)

Look for "Set the default open panel" on the following page:
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/articles/accordion_overview/index.html
Keep in mind you would need to change that bit of code on
every page. The only way to do it more dynamically would be to
include a custom javascript or PHP/ASP style script in order to
change the value.

How can I make address labels, preferably matching Avery sizes, in Pages please?

How can I make address labels, preferably matching Avery sizes, in Pages please? Please don't tell me there is no labels facility!!

If you have your addresses set up in Address Book, the logical place for them, that is also the logical place to print them from.
Pages will only use one data set per page, although there are ways around this. But then that wasn't your question.

What system and iPhoto version are you running? What theme are you using.
All of my calendars do have the month starting on Sunday, Don't know of any way to change it. Where are you located?
How do you have your Calendar application's preferences set to, Sunday or Monday start of week?

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
If you previously synced to the computer then you may be able to recover use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:
Disabled Recovery-must use syncing computer.

We usually advice first to Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache in case of such problem and then do a check for extensions to see if any are causing the problem.
* Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
* Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
* Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

asuming you are talking about the app store try signing into your account using your apple id into the app store.

When I have many tabs open, & I am viewing the 1st one in the row of tabs, how can I make ctrl+T open tab next to it instead of down at the end of all the tabs?

If, for example, I have 50 tabs open, and I happen to be working on the very first tab out of the long row of tabs (tab #1 out of 50 total tabs)....if I suddenly need a new tab next to the one I'm on so that I can do something else related to what I am doing on my current tab's website, pushing ctrl+t opens up the new tab clear down at the very end of the long row of tabs (i.e., the new tab would be tab #51). How can I make the new tab open up right beside the one I'm working on at the moment?

You would need an extension to achieve this
You can look at this extension:

It seems my iCloud email address is shared by someone else. I am getting their emails, and hate to think they are getting mine. How can I check the exclusivity of the iCloud email address?

I am receiving email belonging to someone else. It appears that the iCloud email address I was allocated is used by someone else, and I hate to think my email is being received by them. What's the way to have Apple iCloud check and see that only one recipient gets an iCloud email address? Thanks, John

This is not a hacked account issue. It seems that this a common issue for many... Apple Mail Engineers, Please Do Something!!! With each iteration of Apple's cloud services, the domain changed. i.e., @mac.com, @me.com and now @icloud.com. It seems Apple's original plan or thought was to let you own the account name across all domains. So, [email protected] will also have the option use the newer @me.com and @icloud.com accounts at the same time (why?). With millions of devices being activated around the world, it seems some already established accounts like [email protected] were allowed to be activated as new accounts under [email protected] or [email protected] by other new iCloud users. I'm having the same problem with my email account and my son's email account. In both cases, the second user is based in Europe (we are in the USA). I've set all my devices to strictly use the [email protected] account. In iCloud settings, I see the option to also use the @me.com and @icloud.com addresses. From time to time, I get emails sent to the [email protected] This is very nerve racking because you don't want to get caught with your pants down or feel that someone other than the NSA is watching your email traffic. We can only hope Apple knows about this and has a way to differentiate accounts via another authentication key assigned to each of your devices. Good luck guys.
