  • After an erroneous contacts delete on the mac, they've been removed from icloud and all the synced devices. I was able to restore the contacts from a backup, but since the iCloud version is newer than the backuped one, they are deleted every iCloud sync

    After an erroneous contacts delete on the mac, they've been removed from iCloud and all the synced devices.
    I was able to restore the contacts from a backup, but since the iCloud version is newer than the backuped one, they are deleted every iCloud sync.
    Now I have an iPhone with the contacts and iCloud deactivated, but I lost all the contacts on the Mac and the iPad.
    There is a way to tell iCloud "restart using the contacts I have on this device"?

    An iCloud backup will save the state of your Camera Roll at the time of the backup but, if you delete photos from the Camera Roll, they will not be in the next backup taken.
    If you are using the iCloud Photo Library (beta) read this FAQ which will tell you what happens when you delete photos from one of the devices sharing the Photo Library.
    iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ - Apple Support
    The relevant section is:
    How does iCloud delete photos and videos from iCloud Photo Library?
    Deleting a photo or video from your Photos app will also remove the item from iCloud Photo Library and from your iCloud storage allocation. Photos and videos you remove can be recovered from the Recently Deleted album for 30 days. After 30 days, your content will be removed from the Recently Deleted album. Photos are backed up on our servers for up to 30 days after they're deleted from the Photos app. If you need to recover these photos during that time, contact Apple Support.

  • I accidentally erased all my text messages from a person and I don't have icloud on - is there a way to retrieve my messages?

    I accidentally erased messages from one person on my IPhone 4.   I had icloud deactivated and i haven't backed up my phone in a long time.   Is there any way to retrieve my lost messages??

    No.

  • I have a 4s and I am not sure when it began, but I cannot save photos that are nit camera related in my photo roll. Furthermore, applications that I have downloaded and should request access are not apparent in my privacy photo settings. What should I do?

    My problem began when I wanted to change my screen saver.  At first, I would try to take pictures and download images and they would toatally disappear.  So then I uninstalled my icloud, deactivated my photostream, and supposedly restored my phone to the last back up.  Well atleast now the pictures that I take are not dissappearing into thin air.  However, I have never been able to and I still cant seem to turn on the request for photo applications in my privacy settings.  I am not sure when this initial problem began.  As of now, I am not able to save downloaded photos to my camera roll and applications that  request access to my photos are not displayed in my privacy settings to even accept the request. This is very frustrating and I am not sure what to do. 
    I have tried everything from disabling and enabling my icloud, disabling and enabling my photo stream, stopping the photo app and restarting it, and even restoring it to the last itunes backup.

    This works!
    go to settings> general>restrictions>privacy and allow changes.  Make sure that your camera is on under allow!

  • NO LONGER USING IPHONE BUT FRIENDS TEXTS GOING THROUGH AS IMESSAGES STILL

    IMESSAGE HELP PLEASE:
    I have recently ugraded my phone from an iPhone 3G to a Nokia. I still own the iphone but am just using it as an ipod. There is no sim in it, wifi disabled, imessages disabled, apple ID deactivated, icloud deactivated. However, I am not receiving text messaged from friends and family who have iphones as they are automatically going through as imessages on their phones. They have to then manually resend it as a text message. Why is this happening? They have deleted old message thread and my number and re-imput it but still no joy. They are not going through to the old iphone because I have disabled everything so they are just getting lost in space. It is frustrating for the other users as they have to keep resending messages. What more should I or they be doing for the messages to stop sending as imessages. Thanks

    Sure you can. Whether your phone is in warranty or not, or how old it is, has no bearing on your ability to call AppleCare. So, if you want to fix this, call them.

  • Contacts will disappear after bulk vCard import

    Hi all,
    After bulk importing multiple 700 vCard contacts to the Address Book application (Version 8.0 - 1371) on Mac OX Mavericks, they disappear after closing and reopening the application, just showing the original 7 iCloud contacts I previously created.
    Facts:
    I am trying to import (by drag & drop) 700 vCards 2.1 - windows latin 1 (already selected this format in the Address Book Settings), created with Outlook 2002.
    Address Book is connected to iCloud
    Already tried, unsuccessfully:
    Merging previously all vCard into a single one.
    Doing the import after disconnecting iCloud, merging the contacts, reactivating iCloud.
    Doing the import after disconnecting WiFi and LAN, merging the contacts (even without reactivating them afterwards).
    Creating a new contact after the import before closing the application.
    The previous 3 combined.
    Importing the merged vCard directly on iCloud (getting Error though the file doesn't exceed the limitations)
    In any case is that after closing the application the imported contact not be there any more: only the 7 iCloud contacts (or the "on this mac" if iCloud deactivated) will remain in the Agenda. I do not think it has to do with iCloud.
    I the only clue I have, is that importing the vCards one by one, or in small groups (>10), they "may" remain recorded in the Address Book.
    Does anyone have an idea or workaround to make this bulk import of vCard contacts?
    Thanks,

    So I had to do it manually... in blocks of 5-15 to see the conflicting vCards, that would not be recorded (and hence not automatically synchronized with iCloud).
    Out of the 712 contacts, 8 were not recognized by the Adressbook.
    No idea why, because the other 704 vCards were in the same format (v2.1) and codification (Windows latin 1), and where having also special characters in the .vcf filename or in the data inside.
    I think there is a codification/import issue that Apple should check.

  • Photostream loading and photo sharing contacts

    I'm still trying to figure out this iCloud thing. Two questions
    1. When setting up a photo share stream, do the recipients need to have an actual @icloud.com email for their emails? Both me and my parents use gmail addresses for our icloud devices.
    2. My photostream currently has 935 photos. I took some photos today on my sony camera, connected to my MacBook Pro this evening, and only 12 of 62 photos uploaded to photostream. All 62 show up in my photo albums however. Frustrated with this, I reset my modem, signed out of icloud, deactivated and er activated photos on icloud, reset both my mbp and ipad, turned photos back on, and still no luck. Then I took a couple photos on my ipad and both showed up instantly in my photostream. I have 935 photos in my stream with about 50 that haven't uploaded yet. In iPhoto, where it usually says "uploading 235 photos" it doesn't say anything. What do I need to do to make this happen?
    Maybe I'll sleep on it and like magic it will be better in morning.
    Thank you.

    on the mac/iphoto, move photos in the Photo stream group into some other album. 
    foatbttpo1567,In iPhoto on a mac you need to download the photos to an event - not an album. An album would only reference them in the photo stream, but not store the photos in the iPhoto library. Turning on "Automatic Import", as Old Toad suggested, will do that and create monthly events.
    I'm told that by having the import feature in iPhoto turned on, those photos will stay in iPhoto on my iMac forever - or at least after I pass the 30 days/1,000 most recent photos limits.
    The 30 days/1000 photos limit applies to the temporary storage in iCloud - the time you have to grab them and to import them. Once they are in an event, you have them safe.
    So that leaves me to ask: what am I supposed to do with the photos on my phone? Just leave them there to eat up storage? Or delete them at some point? Delete all the photos on my phone after I import those that Photostream hadn't already captured?
    Photo Stream is a handy feature for transmitting photos, but don't rely on it for permanent storage. If you ever have to reset your iPhone or reinstall your Mac, or to reset the photo stream, your photos from the stream may be gone. Keep always a copy of your photos either in the Camera roll on your phone or in iPhoto events on your mac, and make sure that these copies are regularly backed up.
    As for the "truly duplicates" - Photo stream will send optimized versions to the devices, but to a mac the full original version. You may want to read the FAQ:  iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ

  • How do I stop my deactivated iPhone 4 from constantly asking me to sign in to iCloud?

    Aloha!
    And HELP!
    Since I upgraded to an iPhone5s I would like to use my deactivated iPhone 4 for the music that is still on it but it's constantly prompting for my iCloud password. There is no longe any service so this "feature" is most annoying.  Hopefully someone knows how to make it stop.

    Hi Peter, unfortunately you have to delete the account. If you don't remember the password anymore, then please go to https://iforgot.apple.com/ to reset the password.

  • Forgot my icloud password; e-mail account is deactivated.

    I recently updated my iphone 4 to iOS 7.0. I tried to update my icloud account. However, I have forgotten my password to that account and I can't reset the password because that e-mail account is deactivated. I have another apple ID I use for the itunes store and such and want to use that for icloud. How do I accomplish this in my situation?

    i have the same problem. Been working with HP to resolve video call problem where recipient cannot see me but I see them and my image fine. in the process skype was unintalled several times and reinstalled. each time password was rejected as invalid. had not changed it but was forced to. now am told that too many attempts have been made and to wait 24 hours. What bull**bleep**. somehow i am now signed on. i do not see how this company stays in business. they have no customer support address or phone to call. 
    From now on i will use carrier pigeons or cell phone.

  • I am trying to update my apps, but an old, deactivated iTunes account comes up.  My iCloud is set to my new account.  Why is this happening?

    I am trying to update my apps, but an old, deactivated iTunes account comes up.  My iCloud is set to my new account.  Why is this happening?

    Because all apps are FOREVER tied to the Apple ID used to obtain them, & they can only be updated using that ID.
