I'm having problems with contacts on my iPad. One of my contacts names shows up when I choose any one of 36 contacts. the email goes to the correct email address that I've chosen but the incorrect name shows up in the To: area of the email. Has anyone else experienced this...if so I hope there is a fix

Hello there erika274,
It sounds like no matter what contact you put into the 'To' field, a different name appears, but the email makes it to the intended recipient. I would recommend a few things here. First, close all the open apps on the device:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the phone:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes, and restore it:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Is anyone else having problems with syncing your phone & iPad since the last update?

is anyone else having problems with syncing your phone & iPad since the last update?

Here's the problems I'm having with iPad 2 and iOS 5.1:
Okay ... so, because I had less than a 1 Gig left (as reported by iTunes) on my 64Gig iPad, and the majority of the space was being used by "Photos" ... I decided to not keep my PC photos directory in sync with my iPad (Windows 7). So, in iTunes, I unchecked the option to sync computer photos to the iPad. I got the standard popup warning message that my iPad would not contain those albums after the next sync. I clicked OK and proceeded to sync expecting to have lots of space freed up.
But weird things happened after syncing.
(1) I still have all my photos on my iPad .... nothing disappeared at all. (And performed multiple syncs to try to force the change ... still nothing has been removed from my iPad.)
(2) Somehow, I gained 20 Gigs of free space, as reported by both iTunes and my iPad as well.
Anyone know what's going on here?
I do have iMovie and another movie making app, Avid. Both of these contain projects that refer to photos in albums that were supposed to be removed after the sync ... but I can't imagine that would keep them there. Anyone have any ideas?
I also installed the iPad app, iPhoto. I noticed that it build a directory listing and continuously want to update that listing from time to time.
Would any of these things cause the iTunes photo sync changes to be ignored? And, how did I get free space to report back with an additional 19Gig or so, when there's no change at all.
Unsure what's going on ...

Having problems with mail on my iPad 3rd gen

Hi.
I seem to be having problems with mail on my iPad. Every few days I go to open mail and go open an email and I go to try and delete it or send a reply or compose a new mail and thus I tap the icon but mail will not do anything.
I can open emails but not send or delete them.
Sometimes it works when I just close mail and reopen it but sometimes I have to restart my iPad multiple times. Doesn't matter which email account.
Any help would be appreciated

Clifton I must disagree with you on the above statement. It is my opinion and experience that you should never connect the camera directly to any computer, Mac Windows Whatever.
It is always best to Remove the memory card from the camera and put it in a card reader, whether an external reader or one built into the computer, to copy images from the card.
Hi Shootist. I would be interested in hearing some reasoning on this. I almost always use a USB cable to connect my camera to the MBP for transferring pictures, and have moved about 30,000 this way over the last 6 years since my photography went digital. Recently, on the rare occassions when I have only a few to transfer and I was too lazy to go for the cable, I have used the card reader; about half those times I have difficulty getting the MBP to recognise the card. I find I have to press the card very hard into the slot for it to be recognised.
My rationale is quite possibly wrong, but I feel that the USB connectors are more robust and hard-wearing than the flimsy connectors on an SD card. Also, I haven't measured it, but I think the data transfer is faster with the cable. (I just came across this test, which reports noticeably faster transfer for cable than built-in card reader, but the computer was a PC)
Chiara, sorry for hijacking your thread.

My iPhone4 is having problems with contacts

My iPhone4 has suddenly stopped recognising one of my contacts as being a fellow iPhone user and is now not giving me the option to iMessage that number. I tried deleting the contact and re-entering the data but the same things keeps happening - no iMessage option.
Strangely, the contact appears twice - once with facebook data and once as a number. I can't delete the contact with the facebook data - it offers the option but if I hit delete, nothing happens. If I try adding the phone number to the facebook contact it initially gives me an option to enter an iPhone number but then it switches it automatically to "home". If I try to edit it back to iPhone, I can't because there the option is gone.
I have tried turning iMessage on and off and that hasn't helped. I've tried re-booting and turning it off and on and nothing seems to be working.
Can anyone suggest how I can resolve this?

Just to clarifty, if I try to add a new contact, the option of putting in an iPhone number is not available at all.

Anyone having problems with Photoshop Express on iPad 2 running iOS 8.1.2? I just updated to iOS a 8.1.2 and it has stopped reading my pics

Hi all. @I'm new here , just updated my iPad 2 to iOS 8.1.2 and PE app has stopped reading my streamed photos. Anyone has the same problem? thanks.

I don't have an iPad 2, but I just tried on iPhone 6 running 8.1.2, and I can access images in my Camera Roll, and also images in iOS Albums.
Are you running PS Express version 3.4? Does uninstalling/re-installing help?
Does PS Express have permission to access the images, under iOS Settings > Privacy > Photos > PS Express?
If these suggestions don't help, please reply back.

HT2204 I have 3 iphones and all use the same apple ID,how do I change this so each phone has its own id,do i restore the phones to factory settings first??as im having problems with contacts being added to and deleted from each phone.

I have 3 Iphone 4S and all have the same apple ID which is causing problems as far as contacts are concerned,when i sync 1 of the phones to my comp the contacts appear on all the phones.How do i create a new ID for each of the phones do I have to reset the phones to factory settings first,any help would be appreciated.:)

Hello marie196,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
You do not necessarily need to restore the device to factory settings, but rather sign out of the four services that utilize your Apple ID: iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, and iTunes & App Stores. Once signed out, you can sign in with a new Apple ID. For more information, see the following article:
Using your Apple ID for Apple services

Additional Information: You may encounter an error regarding a 90-day limit. For information on this, see the following article:

Thanks,

Having problem with HP Deskjet All-in-One 3050

I am trying to help someone who was given a Compaq Presario C700 (running Vista) and a HP All-in-One 3050 by her son. She doesn't understand how to use her computer, and it contains the remnants of things people have done to it trying to help her.
I believe her son set her up to use gmail by logging in the the gmail site and reading/writing her mail there. She would like to print her mail on the printer, and we managed to do that, even printing attached photos, but now printing doesn't work. It prints a Gmail header and her email address in color, but the text of the message, which is in b/w doesn't get printed. Print preview shows it as it should be. I created a simple document in wordpad and tried to print it and the same thing happened, except in this case the page was completely blank.
On the other hand, when I printed her inbox at gmail.com using File>Print, it did print the titles of messages listed.
The printer is connected to the computer over the local wireless network.
Could this have something to do with the cartridge being used up? Also, were that the case, wouldn't the printer indicate that somehow.
Any suggestions about how to proceed would be helpful.

Hello,
If you want to have the printer hooked up with a USB cable with printing option, then please try the below steps..
1.Click Start button on the Computer .
2.then click on Control Panel .
3.then Printers and Faxes
4.On top-left, click on Add a Printer
5.Click on Add a Local Printer
6.Then while "Use an Existing port" is selected , select "Virtual USB port ... " then click Next
7.from the Manufacturer list, select HP, and then under Printers list select Deskjet 990c" , then Click next and complete the wizard
Now try printing . It should work.
If you want to try using wireless installation then please visit www.hp.com/go/wirelessprinting

Jabzi

Having problem with CS5, can only do one function then won't let me do anymore.

I adjust the brightness and contrast for my image, then I try to do any other function like laso content fill, and it will not work. What do I do? Just bought CS5 upgrade about a week ago.
Thank you,

It would help if you gave us the following System information:
Operating System/version number
Amount of RAM installed / % allocated to Photoshop
Hard drive(s) capacity / free space
Make and model number of video card
Also tell us what type of file (JPEG?, PSD?).
