ICloud Deleted a document from all my devices and I didn't want it to. Help!?
I just upgraded my ipad and my mom's ipad to IOS5 a few days ago and I linked them both the the iCloud. What I didn't anticipate is that when I chose to allow the iCloud to work for my documents in pages, it suddenly transfered the files from my mom's ipad to mine and vise versa. Seeing these unwanted documents and not knowing what she was doing, my mom promptly deleted the documents that had been mine from her ipad and suddenly they all disappeared from mine too! I cannot find them anywhere! Can anyone help me??? I had three very important documents in there! I only have hope because my ipad says that it last backed up to the icloud yesterday at 10 PM so shouldn't that mean that my documents are floating around somewhere? I tried going into the settings for the icloud and into the files it has saved for pages but all that I found was a list of all the documents that were my moms which did not get deleted. Is there any way for me to restore my ipad to the last backup from the icloud? I assume that that should restore the documents somehow since they were there at the last restore but I could be wrong. The reason they suddenly synced together was because my mom and I just now opened our newly updated versions of pages for the first time and they asked us if we wanted to use icloud and when we chose yes they synced everything because I have my moms ipad set up with the same apple ID as mine. Any help?? If it is not possible to restore my documents can anyone at least give me some advice on how to stop this from happening again in the future? Thanks for any help!
Sounds like you're both sharing the same iCloud account. Don't.

I accidentally deleted an album from my itunes library and i want to buy it again but itunes is saying that i have already purchased it but i don't have it in my library. How do i buy the album again?
Sorry, but audiobooks cannot be downloaded more than once without charge, so if you don't have a viable backup, you may be out of luck. You can, however, contact the iTunes Store, explain the situation, and see if they can make an exception for you.

I cant figure out how to set up Icloud to delete my emails on all my apple devices that use icloud. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I frequently have emails that I delete on my mac but are not deleted from the iPhone/iPad (this is for an iCloud account, @mac.com). In time they eventually delete, but it can take time. I usuall delete them from the devices as well.

How do I recover my Kings of Leon album?
It can take a day or even two sometimes before the transaction is processed. Paypal is then the first to inform you by email and later it is Apple. I have a credit card in my Paypal account which means that I don't have to put money into Paypal.
And if the purchase is not billed at all, no problem at all I guess. -
Why cannot I delete all messages from all my devices?
I have 3 Apple devices (personal MBP, work MBP, and iPhone). I run messages on all of them. If I send/receive a message from someone, I receive it on all devices, but I have to delete the message from ALL my devices - deleting it one just doesn't work. It is like Messages works like email with POP instead of email with IMAP. Extremely frustrating, and I believe that this is working as designed. Why???
for the Points
Neither of us said we liked it.
Like you I think it is flawed and certainly a misuse of the word Sync.

how do i delete old apps from my icloud? I can still see them when i go to not on this device, and I don't want them there anymore.
Remove documents from iCloud
You can remove documents stored in iCloud by deleting them from any of your devices that have iCloud set up for Documents & Data. Removing your documents from iCloud reduces the amount of iCloud storage space you’re using.
Remove iCloud documents from your iOS device
Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage.
Under Documents & Data, tap the app that has a document you want to delete, then tap Edit.
Remove iCloud documents from your Mac
Open iCloud preferences, then click Manage.
Select an app on the left, then select one or more documents on the right.
Click Delete (below the list of apps).
You can also remove documents from iCloud by moving them to your Mac with OS X v10.8 or later. For instructions, use go to the Finder on your Mac, choose Help > Help Center, then search for “save documents.” -
I used to be able to delete email on my PC and they would be removed from my Iphone and Ipad. Now I must delete them separately on all 3 devices. How can I fix this?

I lost all my playlists trying to download I tunes 8 and It deleted them from all my devices becuase of music match. I have an Ipod that still has all the playlists can I restore them from that device?
Hello!
Do you have a Mac computer with Time Machine backups? -
I accidentally deleted a folder of music from iTunes. I have Match, and now it seems deleted from all my devices. How can I get it back?
Were you in iTunes or the Finder? If you were in iTunes what exactly did you click? You say "a folder" but the only "folders" in iTunes contain Playlists and deleting a playlist will not delete tracks from the iTunes library.
When you deleted the music were you prompted to delete the tracks from the cloud? If so, did you do so?
Were you prompted to move the files to the Trash. If so did you do so? If you did have you emptied the Trash? -
How do you delete the contacts from "All on My Mac"
How do you delete the contacts from "All on My Mac"? i have moved everything to iCloud and want to delete the contacts on my mac.
Signing out will not delete them from iCloud. Do it and read the message. It will give you the option to store address book contacts locally or just in iCloud. It will tell you that they will be available in iCloud when you sign back in.
In Addition, signing your mac out of iCloud does not sign your other devices out of iCloud. Any info in iCloud will still be available to other devices.
You can also access iCloud from the website https://www.icloud.com , which you can access from any computer at any time. -
I changed my Apple ID on all my devices and services but iCloud still shows my old Apple ID. How can I get it to update?
I asked the Apple Tech support people and their advice worked for me, it's a setting on the iPad itself. see below.
Follow the below instructions to sign in with your new account name.
1) From the home screen, tap Settings
2) Tap Store
3) Tap Sign Out
4) Tap Sign In
5) Enter your current account name "xxxx" and your password and tap OK.
If you are still unable to change the sign in name on your iPad, please sign into your account on your computer and then sync the iPad so the changes will be updated.
good luck -
how to get reading list in my all my devices and computer (window 7). i have installed ios 6 on iphone and icloud control panel on both PC's (home and office) but i dont get updated reading list on all my devices.
Hi bluegrandpanash,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you backed up your iPhone to iCloud before updating the software, first try the steps under "Restore from an iCloud backup" in this article to recover your data:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

Why when I delete a document from the print que does it not delete?
When I send a document to my hp photosmart printer and there is an error, I go in to delete the document from the print que on my hp laptop and it shows it as being deleted but nothing happens and I can't print any other document. How do I fix this?
If your problem is not resolved please read this post then provide some details. What exactly is your printer model? (There are hundreds of Photosmart models...) What operating system? How is the printer connected?
All the Photosmart printer models except the first one had a "cancel" button on the front panel. It may be easier to press this to cancel the print job rather than deleting the print job from the spooler. The cancel button is typically marked with an "X"; pressing it will stop printing and discard the remainder of the print job.
