IOS 7 is a big mistake for me!

I upgraded my 4s to ios7 the other day, now when ever my wife sends a text to me the text also goes back to here iphone 4. I upgraded her iphone 4 to ios7 to see if that would fix the problem. It didn't! I also found that when I upgraded my 4s it added an icloud account for me against my will (I had answered that I did not want an icloud account). I deleted the icloud account and I still have the same problem. It is really annoying for my wife. every time she sends me a text it still sends it to her also (a popup with reply or close and it plays my text tone making her think that I sent a meesage to her also). Is there any fix for this or should I just go back to ios6 or maybe get a new android phone (probably comes with it's own set of issues). I have noticed the trend with apple and other technology companies to make newer versions more trouble than the are worth lately. Marketing people should not be allowed to have input on design.

I went to the Settings/messages and the only thing in there was the phone number for the I was checking on. It was the same on both phones. I guess I need to either set up another apple id (which I really do not want to do) or go back to ios6 (which is probably what I will end up doing). Thanks for the suggestions.

IOS 4.2.1 ***** BIG TIME for 3Gs

When I updated my 3Gs, the selection for custom tones became limited to one tone. Even the said "17 text tones doesn't apply. Blame the web guy who updates the site huh?! hahahahahaha.
Did Steve Jobs approve of this update???
Sorry guys, been a big fan of you. Now your tested?

Hello Sir Modular747,
I have the basic 6. You got me all wrong. The update made the Custom Ringtone section select one custom ringtone. When in fact in the Itunes i have 3 tones to select. I did Restarts, Resets, Restores from backups, and Restores as new. Did all that Sir. And as a matter of fact all the custom ringtones where selectable back from the previous iOS, now on this newer and said better update it doesn't work.
I feel sorry for you man, i know you're ****** at everyone here in the forum, and i know that a lot of people are complaining. I'm not wasting your time. I'm just reporting the incident or the effects made by the update to let Apple or even you that there is an error in the update and thus reporting this may produce new update earlier.
That's why I'm asking if these updates were check by Steve Jobs himself.
Sorry dude, i'm not the enemy. Just a Mac and Iphone user/fan.

Likely some setting with mail not being deleted from servers.

Slow may be caused by the email anomaly.

The iPad 1 can't run the newer operating systems. It'd be like trying to play a bluray disc in your 6 year old dvd player....it simply lacks the hardware to make the software run.
No suggestion about the camera, but given that Apple's attitude seems to be to focus more on the more mobile devices for photography (the iPhone and Touch cameras got features, the iPad and mini didn't), that is highly unlikely. You can tell Apple what you want, but you'd probably be money ahead to get a digital camera.
as to the photos, anything put on via iTunes has to come off via iTunes.Your main alternative would be to look for photo apps that offer file exchange that may give you more functionality.

I've just bought an iPhone 5S in the UK, seems like a big mistake. I have turned off sync to icloud from the phone for both my contacts and calendar, as told on itunes. However, iTunes still says they are synced from iCloud and wont sync to PC, Fix ?

I've just bought an iPhone 5S in the UK, seems like a big mistake, but luckily by law we can return goods, which is exactly what is going to happen if I cant get this to work. This is my business phone, not having it functional can cost me money.
I have turned off sync to icloud from the phone for both my contacts and calendar, as told on itunes. However, iTunes still says they are synced from iCloud and wont sync to my PC, why and how do I fix it so that it doesnt go to iCloud for anything ?
The phone currently has no contacts or calendar information installed.
PC is HP Probook 4730s running Windows 7, Professional, version 6.1.7601 Service Pack 1 Build 7601.

I'm happy you figured it out and just try to keep in mind that not everyone you talk to at support will give the same advice or have the same knowledge. Just like those who contribute to these forums. Sometimes Google is your best friend.
I agree that Apple could probably make it easier, but as of yet prefer security over freedom. (sound famaliar?)

I made a big mistake to change the setting of my Mac book pro to "me only". Now ofcourse It cannot open the login page, for how would the mac know it is me? How can I change the setting back to "everyone"?

I made a big mistake to change the setting of my Mac book pro to "me only". Now ofcourse It cannot open the login page, for how would the mac know it is me? How can I change the setting back to "everyone"? I have back up in the past but the last month I have not. I really want to keep the data.
So how can I go in and change the setting, It stays ofcourse at the apple screen with wheel. All info is there and the computer works fine, just cannot use it or have been able to log in.

wjosten is spot on. If you really want iCloud, then you will need to acquire a new or second hand MBP that can run Lion.
Ciao.

Flash 10.1 Intel-only for macs BIG MISTAKE!

As the title says: BIG MISTAKE if Adobe wants Flash to continue widespread adoption going forward. Intel-only mac support will lock out a LOT of schools and students from accessing any content produced for 10.1.
Adobe, please re-consider. Accessing the www should not require steep system requirements. HD video and 3D stuff... that's understandable. But otherwise, to up the requirements so much (in comparison to 10.0) is to hobble many internet users.
JP

Sorry, my bad.
From the release PDF:
Support for the Macintosh PowerPC platform is not available in this prerelease but will be available in a future prerelease.
Glad to know Adobe is keeping compatibility with older computers in mind. (HD aside, my G5 has plenty of oomph here yet)

PS. Haven't seen many responses from Adobe here. Is this forum just a ghost town, or what?

I made a big mistake. I downloaded a Windows version of Adobe Acrobat for my Mac. Is there any way to get that changed?

I made a big mistake. I paid almost $500 for Adobe Acrobat and realized the whole time I was paying for a Windows version of the software. Is there any way I can change the software without having to buy a new license for the program?

I was migrating from a 3gs to the 4s. Big mistake. Have lost contacts and access to music and apps.

I was migrating from a 3gs to the 4s. Having never upgraded the IOS before, I thought that I should do that before handed the phone down to my daughter to replace her broken 3g. Big mistake. Even using Google sync for my contacts, following instruction from the Google webpage (ambiguous: cancel or not when error message is displayed?) the contacts did not sync to gmail. iTunes says it will sync contacts, but doesn't from the phone, only from the few that were in my old Gmail account. The iCloud set up asks for email and a new password- not specifying that you should use your old email and password for your old iTunes account or your phone will be instantly locked out of those apps and tunes stored there. The web info says you can't merge accounts or passwords, so, I bet I have to cancel the new set up and start over with the old password if it will even let me. I've spent 8 hrs reading, syncing, et c., on this! It will be a long time before I casually buy a new phone from them! I wonder how much time it will take to switch from the 3GS to the 4S? I now have a 3GS without contacts, no way to get the data from those files back, and can't get the apps to it or the 4S until Apple support helps fix the double identity problem.
Considering that I had verbal instructions from the Apple store prior to the IOS upgrade, reviewed all the details on line, I think this process is woefully lacking in clarity and transparency. The local ATT branch offered nothing except backing up to avoid loss of contacts if both phones were taken to the store, but not any help with the IOS or iTunes content. Cable internet for the 3GS backup and IOS 5 upgrade seemed to take about 2 hours. At least calender, notes, etc. were done correctly and 2500 picture and videos were not removed.

After the last post,I went to the local ATT for some feedback. The manager there, Stephen, was helpful and spent a long time, even after i had gotten the abbreviated list of contacts I had constructed from the 3GS to the 4S by an iTunes sync with the correct options selected. This however, would not sync notes. I took screen pix of my many stock symbols for future reference, and got them to transfer with Bump (as photos, in case I want to refresh my memory on some of the symbols added previously). I emailed myself copies of 28 notes i did not want to lose, because the iCloud back up would not initially work. After what seemed like years, I finally was able to get it working, following repeated refusal to Merge because of "not enough space available" @5GB even though everything was turned off except contacts and calendar.
My old phone is finally backed up to the cloud after I turned off location service on new phone, and a bunch of apps and photo data showed up for the first time, as icons to be turned off on the old phone in the Manage Storage window. It said it was going to back up 8 GB of photos when the photo backup had been turned off on the prior screen. (The screws are loose, and the worm has turned on this software at Apple.)
Backup for notes, a few contacts, and calendar, over high speed wifi, took 25 minutes to complete without photos.
I have never seen anything this troublesome in the Apple OS!
You will need to set your own Apple ID and a .me email ID if you want to use the cloud. My recommendation and that of the store manager for the first time is don't back up any photos, let it erase the photo stream if it wants to. The camera roll should be ok.
Backing up to the iCloud removed all my stocks from the old phone! It wasn't supposed to. Be sure to select leave data on phone at every opportunity- even so, there they went. It did not remove contacts or calendar when backing up, though the IOS 5 upgrade had lost my years of contacts since I had not specified that they should be saved when I hit the simple sync in iTunes the first time and since Googlesync failed to connect properly for me over wifi as noted above.
All in all it appears nothing is going to clone your phone or preserve all the data through a IOS 4.x to 5 migration, though I did not do it right the first time with iTunes, and complicated matters by starting with a new ID instead of my old iTunes account and password, living in a small town, away from any Apple store, though if you can't be there at an Apple store with both phones in hand, they probably can't help much unless they walk you through each option in iTunes and you are very attentive. The store genius I saw did not do this, though I had yet to order the phone at that point.
Good Luck!

I recently upgraded to iTunes 11. Big Mistake. Now I can't play anything. I'm on a Windows PC. Any help or suggestions?

I recently upgraded to iTunes 11. Big Mistake. Now I can't play anything from iTunes. When I click on it, it appears to be playing, but no sound at all.
Also, I keep getting asked to "authorize" this computer (which I've been using for more than 2 years). When the dialog box comes up, it includes an e-mail address what I used over 6 years ago. When I attempt to change the e-mail address, it tells me I'm already authorized.
PLEASE HELP! Or, just tell me how to get iTunes 10 back - that works well!

A computer requires authorisation to play content. If you have bought content using 2 Apple IDs over the years you need to authorise the machine for both Apple ID accounts.

I made iOS7 update, a big mistake , such a ****, how can I get the previous version ?

Sorry, but you cannot downgrade the iOS now.

I need your help...I made a very big mistake!

I really need your help. A friend of mine has an iPod Nano and when I was helping him out on his PC, I accidentally spelled his last name wrong. As in, instead of Smith, I typed Smyth. Anyway, how do I remove that mistake in his iTunes and iPod? It's showing up as the wrong last name! I deleted the wrong name from every registry entry and also uninstalled iTunes and the reset the iPod. He said he resynched the other day and the wrong name came back. How can that be? How do I get rid of this BIG mistake on his Dell PC and iPod while not having it happen again? I'm never hearing the end of it now and so, I come to you for help. Thanks so much! Debbie

Thank you Jeff for the link! Between your link and Niel's response, I think I've got it. I'm going there today to fix the problem so this friend will leave me alone! (GRIN)
I really appreciate the help from both of you! Thank you so much! Apple people are such nice people! I think I just might buy myself a Mac and my own iPod!
Thanks again!
Namaste'
Debbie

Big mistake...renamed disk image on desktop...

Yup. I just can't leave well enough alone. I set up time capsule with little trouble and it ran for 3 weeks. Then, like a jerk, I renamed this little disk image on my desktop. Couldn't remember it being there before...so I just renamed it and tried to throw it away!
BIG MISTAKE.
Now time machine says it failed and is now unable to mount the backup.
So I just "entered the time machine" and then exited. No big deal.
BUT...
After that, any attempt to backup leads to a total crash requiring a restart.
Is anybody as dumb as me? Without admitting dumbness, is anybody willing to offer a solution? or should I just start all over again?
Bill

Now any time I try to back up, or merely access TC, I get the total, dimmed-screen system crash. SOMEBODY HELP!!!!!!!

Asus Q400a Discontinued -- BIG MISTAKE

Best Buy has made a big mistake gutting the Asus Q400a. Its newer siblings are in no way comparable. For $650, a quad core i7, 8 GB of ram, a backlit keyboard, and a 750 GB HHD were increadible benefits. Its newer siblings are larger and far more expensive. Not to mention the Q400 was a sturdy laptop.
It's a real shame. I ended up buying the laptop from Tiger Direct, refurbished. Am awaiting its shipment. Too bad Best Buy lost a GSP sale.
