Hello, My id has "live:"<name> on my account. How can I get rid of "live:"? Btw, I am using Microsoft account. Also, since my name as live: I get unnecessary public invites. HOw can I block all these unnecessary invites?
Also, how do I make my id private and not public?
Thanks in Advance.
Solved!

There is no way to make your ID private.
live: <name> is actually your Skype name which is automatically assigned to your account when you create this account using the Microsoft account option. If when creating this account you would have chosen the option "I have a Skype account" and linked Microsoft account with this existing Skype account, then your Skype name would have been this linked account name.

HT204053 My daughter has a phone on my account how can I get her messages to come to my iPad with a different number but all under my name.

My daughter has a iPhone five under my account how can I get her messages to come to my iPad? Under my number?

This can happen when you both share the same Apple ID for iMessage. You can continue to share the same ID for purchasing from the iTunes and App stores, but you should use separate IDs for iMessage and FaceTime.
To fix this, on one of the phones, to go Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a separate ID. Then do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.

ITunes on iCloud has created unwanted multiple playlists. How can I get rid of them?

iTunes on iCloud has created unwanted multiple playlists. How can I get rid of them?

Hi, if this is in regards to your library simply open up itunes and do the following steps:
Click File
Scroll down to "show duplicates"
A list will then appear of your duplicate song titles.
Be sure to CAREFULLY review each song to make sure it is a duplicate ( as I have some music that is the same song but live, acoustic etc...)
Proceed to manually delete each song from the list and leave alone any song that you wish to keep.
For playlists, you will need to hit the name tab so that your doubles line up, from there you will have to manually delete them, it helps to hold the Control button to select multiple songs as a time ( they will be highlighted) then when your done selecting the songs you wish to delete, right click your mouse and select the delete option from the window tab.
Best of luck, please rate my response for help!

I want to switch stores from Japan to USA. I used to have an iTunes card, and there's 15 YEN left in my account, how can I get rid of that so I can start purchasing in the US store using my new credit card?

I can't seem to find an app that costs my available balance. iTunes said I need to spend it ALL before I can change stores. This means I cannot totally change stores.... Hopeless.

Click the Firefox button, go to Add-ons, then Plugins and disable the following:

* My Web Search 
Both of these are adware/spyware and cause performance issues in Firefox.
Next, click the Extensions menu link (above Plugins where you are) and remove the "Ask Toolbar".
If the problem persists, please do the following: 
#Click '''Help '''| '''Restart with Add-ons disabled'''. 
#In the next menu which appears, checkmark: "'''Reset toolbars and Controls'''". 
#Finally, click the button called "'''Make changes and restart'''".

You are going to need to change the email address you use with your old ID. Once you have got access to your old account you will then log into both accounts at the same time on your Mac and transfer your data to a single account. We can do this later, but need you to get access to your old account first.

My marketplace has lost his CSS-Layout! How can I get it back/install the marketplace new?

Hi,
since a few weeks, when I start the Firefox Os marketplace, I see an unformatted HTML-page without any layout. Somehow I lost the layout information. How can I get it back? The first idea was reinstalling the marketplace. But it is not an app in the marketplace...
Please help me. using the marketplace without layout is not usable for a longer time.
Alle other apps are working fine. The marketplace had an layout, when i bought the smartphone (ZTE Open C).
regards
AK

Hi Ralph,
thank you for your quick response.
I saw a simple HTML-Page in white, all links in blue or purple. I expected the normal marketplace-layout.
After opening your link at the browser and adding a favorit to the desktop my original marketplace-App-Button works fine again. Now even using the App-Button the layout is back again. Sometimes it can be so simple...
So you solved the problem for me.
Thanks a lot

Connect the iOS device to your computer and try to make a backup

Then restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

To restore from backup see:

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.
