IOS5 wiped my contacts and Apple expect me to pay for a fix
I update to iOS5 and then find my contacts have been wiped from the phone, my calender entries are doubled, trebled or even quadrupled and I can't review any sync conflicts as I constantly get a 'libobjc.i386.A.dll is missing' error. I can't find any fixes on these forums that work and Apple want to charge me (can't find out how much) to repsair damage caused by their software! I've uninstalled every Apple component on my PC, rebooted and re-installed iTunes TWICE with no difference.
Any ideas - please????

This happened with my 3G & PC however many years ago
It was an issue with the Intel chip in my Dell PC + WIndows 7 + Apple. I had to wait for a seeming eternity for Dell to come up with the fix, but in the end, it was the PC maker who provided the new driver. I'm now having the same problem with my 4S and my iPad 1, and it's maddening. Never thought I'd be grateful for iCloud. Meanwhile, I finally got a MacBook Pro, because once this Dell PC is done, so am I.

My lock button isnt working!!!!! and apple wants me to pay 275$ to fix it.
i dont have the warrenty anymore and i was just wondering if they would still replace is or fix it?
Apple replaces iPhones; they don't fix yours (other than some Apple Stores now replacing screens in the iPhone 5). The charge you've been quoted is the correct amount with shipping for out-of-warranty replacement of an iPhone 5.

We have three iPhones but one Apple ID because I pay for the acct whenever we buy Apps or music. However, it's frustrating that when we share iCloud it merges our notes and contacts even if we say "DO NOT MERGE." I've also lost my notes but could not recover them even if I did a restore.
You can share the same iTunes ID on all your devices and still have different iCloud accounts with different IDs on them. The ID you use for iTunes does not need to be the same as the ID used for iCloud.
If you want to migrate your devices to separate accounts, on the devices that will be moving save any photo stream photos to your camera roll by opening the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, then tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share and tap Save to Camera Roll. Also email any synced notes to yourself so you can recreate them in the new account. Finally, if you are syncing any iWork documents with iCloud, go to the iWork app settings and turn off iCloud syncing.
Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud. The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.) When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone. Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom). Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new account.
Once the phones are all on separate accounts you can then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want from each account. -
i damaged my iphone 5 and have been sent a new one, but i do not have enough storage to back up my phone and do not want to pay for more storage. can i get all of my contacts, photos, etc. on my new phone just by logging into my icloud account?
Not photos, just data synced with iCloud shown in Settings>iCloud. If you don't have sufficient storage to back up to iCloud, back up to your computer instead using iTunes (connect you phone to your computer, open iTunes, click on the name of your phone in iTunes, go to ths Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and click Back Up Now). Also transfer your purchases to your iTunes library (connect your phone to your computer, open iTunes and go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases). If you have photo stream photos older than 30 days tha you wan to save, save these to your camera roll before backing up (tap Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon -- box with upward facing arrow, then tap Save to Camera Roll).
When setting up your new phone, when given the option choose Restore from iTunes Backup and restore the backup you made earlier. -

Help- how do i get in contact with Apple via mail or chat for support
This is ridiculous, why can I not get in contact with Apple by email or chat with their support team?? How to do, please help.You cannot contact Apple support by e-mail or via chat.
You have to contact AppleCare by telephone.

I explained it most in my question but I am getting charged double for songs that I have already paid for and am not going to pay for twice because that is messed up. But I want to get some apps from the store and it wont let me because of $5.25. Who can I talk to about resolving this issue?
You're right, it would have been covered under warranty. But because of the user damage, chances are there's a 200-something dollar fee . If you explain to them that it had a defect previously, they might replace it for you at no charge. **MIGHT**. But they would have to believe that it had a defect previously.

Hi, I've purchased a few films from itunes (and they are listed as Purchased in my account), but I can't find them on my computer or my itunes account, and itunes wants me to pay for them again. How do I get around this? I've tried all the suggestions, and it's hugely frustrating.
If you are in the UK, and the film studio allows re-downloading, and you are signed in with the same account that you bought them with, then they might show under the Purchased link under Quinklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page for re-downloading - if they don't show then check to see if they are hidden (hiding and unhiding).
But you should be keeping and maintaining your own backup of your downloads and noy rely on being able to re-download any item as they are occasionally removed from the store by the content provider (film studio, tv company, record company etc). -
i have had itunes for years when i try to open it, it says i have missing files so i repaired it, then it said the same thing. so i went to download it again to fix the problem and it wants me to pay for a membership. is itunes no longer free?
iTunes is free... there is no membership fee.
Try providing some specifics about what is going on and others might be able to provide a resolution. -
I would like to know if the download that are free why cann't you download more than 10 and then you have to pay for them
If it's free, then it's free no matter how many you download. iTunes might take some time if you download more than three. I have more than 400 apps and a 50 of them are free and I don't have problem.
Are you sure it was free? -

If you don't have an Installer disk then you can't install without a purchase. Do you have the grey SystemRestore disks that came with your Mac? It's on that. No, iPhoto is not part of Lion.

I own CS6 from DVD and have just upgraded (by paying) for Creative Cloud. Is there an upgrade price or do I just start with monthly/yearly subscriptions to CC2014?
You get a discounted first year on your subscription if you own a previous product, which you should have been asked for when signing up.

Restoring my iPhone4 from a 3GS backup doen not bring contacts and messages along. Anyone know of a fix
dejavuofa wrote:
Hello! I've seen a lot of threads about restoring via iTunes but haven't found my particular situation yet. So hopefully someone can give me some insight into my predicament. I updated my iPhone 4S with io7 and my wifi broke. So I got a new iPhone 4S with ios6 loaded on it. I want to keep ios6 until Apple can figure out how to fix the wifi/bluetooth chip running hot. I backed up my phone right before I swapped to the new 4S. But when I try to restore from backup it won't let me because the backup I did was with ios7 and it wants me to upgrade my ios6 to ios7. Obviously I don't want to do that only to have my new phone break again.
Options I see is pay for some 3rd party software that can restore my contacts, texts, etc. Upgrade to ios7 and pray it doesn't break again. Get a new phone.
But I don't like any of those options. I want to keep ios6 until they make me upgrade it.
Anyone have any ideas???
Apreciate the help in advance.
