Icloud and upgrade issues

Hi, I have an iphone 4s, which was backed up on my MAC 9 months ago. I then started to use icloud.
I have just installed ISO 7 and the icloud backed up my phone. Great. However I want to go on to itunes and download some CD's, but when i connect my iphone to the MAC and because I have just updated the ISO 7 software, it says you have successfully updated your iphone do you want to "set up as a new phone" (which will wipe the phone clean...no good) OR "restore backup from 18/3/2013", which is the last time I backed up on the MAC. As I say i now use the icloud. So is there
1. a way of overriding this?
2. a way of now backing up my iphone on the MAC to where it is currently, ie a lot has hapened in 9 months.
I used the icloud on the recommendation of Apple support. thanks

If you are reffering to the options at (1), you don't need to use them.
Do you not see the options at (2)

ICloud and Calendar issue

I recently turned on my iCloud and now my calendar no longer contains events past the last month. How can I view those events again?

Go into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and scroll down to Calendars. Tap Sync and select the desired sync duration.
Be aware that syncing a large number of events may cause performance issues.

Belatedly upgraded to iTunes 11; iCloud and syncing issues with iPod

There are now a bunch of tracks in my library listed as iCloud tracks; confusingly, some are duplicates of other tracks, and some are not. Also, with no other change than the iTunes upgrade, it's telling me that I'm way over the limit and can't sync my library to my iPod. I'm sure this is simple but I can't figure it out. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

diesel vdub, i use 11.1.1
solved the issue today. first sync with itunes, so all the stiff you bought on the mobile will be backuped.
1. uncheck sync music in itunes and sync. all the music will be erased from mobile device
2. check music player on the mobile device. just the unwanted songs will still be there
3. go on the iphone to settings, general, usage, music player. there is just a few mb from the remaining unwanted songs. swipeleft and erase the content. switch iphone off and on again
4. repeat step 2. there will be no data. otherwise repeat step 3
5. check sync music in itunes and sync. all the music will be back again but not the unwanted songs.

HT4906 iCloud and upgrades??

1. Have iphone 4S, ipad mini (less than a month old) and MacBook Pro with Lion 10-7-5: iPhone and iPad work (share photos, mail etc.) thro' iCloud but not Macbook. Does this need yet another upgrade?
2. Apple is wonderful but I'm fed up that devices need constant feeding (upgades) to make things work - we pay enough at purchase. Anyone else agree? If so, what shall we do?

This is from iCloud: System requirements
* Note: Although you can use iOS 5 and OS X Lion as noted above, you will not be able to take advantage of some iCloud features, such as Shared Photo Streams, iCloud Tabs, Find My iPhone Lost Mode, Documents in the Cloud for iWork, and Find My Friends location-based alerts.

Flash Player MSI Installation, Uninstallation and Upgrade Issues

Hello,
I'd like to request help regarding Adobe Flash Player. We are having issues when we push out upgrades via SCCM. On a number of our computers, we are getting multiple versions of Flash player installed. It seems like instead of upgrading the current version, Flash player is just installing new copies every time we push out a new version. This creates security vulnerabilities for us and also seems to corrupt the newest installation. For example, we will have to log onto a computer, uninstall all the previous versions and then reinstall the newest version to get it to work again. Our helpdesk is also getting errors on some systems when they try to uninstall the flash versions before doing a clean install.
OS Version: Windows 7 x64 SP1
Web Browser: IE9, 10 and 11
Flash Player version: 16.0.0.xxx
SCCM Install String: "msiexec /i {product code} /q"
Any help preventing this would be appreciated.
Screenshot below. This only has a couple of the NPAPI versions, but this same thing happens with the ActiveX and NPAPI (we have both installed)

i also unistaled this multi time but cant g

ICloud and Syncing Issues (Couldn't find in other threads)

I have been reading through a ton of threads asking similar questions, but have not found one exactly like mine so I am hoping for some insight here. First off we have an iMac, 2 macbooks, two iPhones, an iPod Touch, and several other iPods too. We have switched to iCloud.
In my family we have a joint account and two individual accounts. I use my individual account for everything (iTunes, Cals, Contacts,...) and my husband has a .yahoo.com account he uses for iTunes and then he uses his individual account for everything else (Cals, Contacts,...). Several things we want to accomplish and have been trying to without total luck:
1: Enjoy the same music, apps, tv shows... on ONE iTunes account, BUT be able to sync our iPhones & iPods to our own tastes
2. We want to share an address book over all of our accounts. How can we make them all the same? I don't think I can sync different things to different accounts like contacts using joint email and then email using individual account IDs and iTunes with yet another? So CONFUSING!
3. I also use a PC (blah) at work and use Outlook for email, calendar and contacts. I would like to import a "work" contact list into the address book that my husand doesn't have to look at since it ill mean nothing to him.
4. I use google calendar and would like to have it sync to iCal and Outlook without creating a million duplicate events.
We have different IDs, which I have learned that we will not be able to merge IDs due to big music companies, but we want some fluidity between our accounts which is good for them, but bad for families.
Anyway I know this is a lot of questons, but I am hoping for some insight.
Also I thought iTunes matches was supposed to release at the end of October????

Hi, here is how to remove it by yourself...
http://goo.gl/J7R6A
Script that I create which, will help you remove it ..... (Let me know using the contact at that site.)
http://goo.gl/rGV62
What is does.
Depending on the version it just creates a bunch of random fake notification and claims your infected. If you keep getting it then most likely you have Allow popups and "Open Safe files" in safari on. The only damage is if you give the criminals that created it your Credit Card.
It is changing so it depend on the version but these two links should help.

Icloud and id issues

My son uses my id on his ipad and mac book air and I want to take him off my icloud but don't know how as he is getting all of my messages from my iphone 5c. His email also comes up on my user info when a message is sent rather my id. Any tips on how I separate them? Thanks

Well the best way to change Apple ID is give support a call and answer the secure questions over the phone. It seems doing it on line sometimes just doesn't work out. Your new Apple ID should work for everything this forum, iTunes, App Store etc. If it isn't you have more then one working Apple ID most likely. I've been there. Support can't straight it out if you tried everything on line. Do you want more then one Apple ID. I am not sure by your question. Sometimes we make more then one account and that is the source of the problem. Support can trace everything and straighten it out.

MobileMe e-mail, iCloud, and AppleID issues.

When I migrated my MobileMe account to iCloud, it turned into it's own AppleID for some reason. As a result of this I cannot associate my MobileMe e-mail address with my current AppleID for iCloud e-mail to work. I know I could use two iCloud accounts on my iPhone but this is not ideal in the slightest. When I attempt to setup iCloud mail on my phone under the iCloud options it will not allow me to add my existing MobileMe e-mail address, the only option is the create a new one and I'd be much happier using my old one.
I hope someone from the community has the answer to this. I intend to purchase an iPhone 4S in a few days which will come with 90 day complimentary support so I may indeed have to end up on the phone with Apple, although I hope this is not the case.
Many thanks,
Alex

Any chance you can point me in the right direction as I can't seem to find it on Apples website. Do I need the support package for this? If so I guess I'll have to wait until I buy the iPhone4s.

10.6.8 cannot access iCloud's facilities - you can set Mail up manually and there is a hack which some people have used to sync calendars (see below) - you cannot sync any other type of data.
This is the situation with iCloud and Snow Leopard:
Your email, calendars, and 'Find my iPhone' will be migrated to iCloud. Contacts and Bookmarks cannot be migrated from a Snow Leopard Mac.
Your iDisk, together with website hosting and Gallery, will continue to work as before until next June.
Syncing of Dashboard Widgets, Dock Items and Keychains between Macs, and Mail Accounts, Mail Rules, System Preferences, Signatures & Smart Mailboxes between Macs & iOS devices, will cease altogether.
You will be able to access email and calendars on the iCloud website at http://icloud.com provided your browser is reasonably up-to-date.
You will not be able to sync contacts or bookmarks from a pre-Lion Mac.
You will be able to enter the server settings for email manually in the Mail application and access your email.
You will not be able to sync your calendars directly.
Some people have been able to set up calendar syncing by using the method detailed here - this is an unsupported hack and may not be reliable, and may stop working at some future point. BusyCal is an iCal-like calendar application with extra facilities: it can sync with the iCloud Calendar while running on Leopard, Snow Leopard or Lion.
There appears to be no method of syncing contacts (though Address Book on a Mac can be synced with Google or Yahoo address books - I don't know how reliable this is).

IPad2 and iPhone4 upgrade to iOS 5.0.1 and iCloud-- duplicate app issues

I upgraded my MacBook Pro to lion a while back (have had lots of problems ever since, but that's another story). Recently synced and upgraded my iPad 2 and iPhone 4 to iOS 5.0.1 and iCloud. This has resulted in some of my apps on both devices seeming to have duplicates. How can I determine if these are true duplicates and which can be eliminated? How do I get rid of apps I don't want?

The easiest way is in iTunes.
In your iTunes Library, clickApps on the left hand side. That'll give you the full list, so the first thing you can see is whether you have duplicates in iTunes. I suggest you show the Version and release Date columns (right click a column header and choose them from the list) so you can see whether you have multiple versions.
If you have 2 the same, one might be for iPad and one for iPhone - not all apps are Universal.
Once you're happy that list is straight, connect the devices to iTunes, go to the Apps tab for each device, and uncheck the ones you don't want on that device
Hope that helps

I upgraded my 3rd gen iTouch to iOS 5.1.1 and now its speed to repond is slower and the battery goes flat quicker than before the upgrade. Skype, Sky iCloud and other apps are turned off (I think). Has anybody else suffered with this? Any ideas?

I do backup with iCloud. I can't wait until the new iMac is available so that I can once again have my files in more than 1 location without needing to rely solely on the cloud.
I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever. Is that right?
In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever.

HT5622 I have issues with my iphone putting all my photos in the photo stream and an issue with my icloud on my PC updating the photo s stream.

Some of the photo I take with my iphone will not get saved into my photo stream. Some of these photos were taken while the iphone was connected to the wifi, but did not get saved. Other photos were while not on wifi and they seem to get saved. I have not narrowed down what is the difference between those photos that get saved and those that don't get saved. Is there a way to force a photo to get saved? I would like to be able to access these photos from all my devices.
I also have an issue with the photo stream on my PC getting updated. I have photos in the photo stream that is updated on my Ipad and iphone. However, these photos are not getting updated on the PC. Everything seems to be set up on the icloud and photos stream for the PC.
Thanks,

That is the way it is designed to work. If you want the photos on your Mac on your new iPhone, you can sync them with iTunes.

I just upgraded to Lion. I was trying to set up the iCloud and it asked for my "login" keychain password. I've never been asked for that before. I've tried every password I can think of and nothing works. Is there a way to reset the keychain password?

I just upgraded to Lion. I was trying to set up iCloud and it asked for my "login" keychain password. I've never been asked for the keychain password before. I've tried every password I can think of and nothing works. I'm normally asked for the password to my machine when upgrading software, signing on, etc. but this is different apparently. I tried the same password and it didn't work either. I read a couple of posts and they all want to take me through Applications/Utilities but that requires knowing your password in order to change it. I don't know it. Don't remember ever setting up a keychain password. Does anyone know how to change the keychain password if you don't know the keychain password???

Most of the time your Keychain password is the same as your login password. If you configured your computer to log you in automatically, you may not have used your login password in so long you forgot it.
There is no way to retrieve the "login" Keychain password, but you can reset the Keychain from the Preferences menu: select it in the Keychain Access menu and select "Reset My Default Keychain". This will create a new, empty Keychain but the old one will be saved should you ever remember its password.
The result of this is that you will have to supply passwords for everything that requires it, since without your Keychain they will no longer automatically fill themselves. However, once you supply them and store them in your new Keychain, they will be remembered.
