HELP PLEASE!! i recently overhauled the calendar on my iphone and erased everything on iCal on my mac. now when i sync with my computer (i pick "sync all calendars") it erases everything on my iphone and i have to restore from backup to get my calendar info back. I'M GOING MAD!! how can i do a one time, one way sync from iphone to ical (or just merge the two for that matter)? PLEASE HELP!!
I don't think you can force the iPhone to overwrite iCal (though you can do the reverse). I even looked through MobileMe to see if you can do it, and found nothing.
The only suggestion I have is if you have a backup of your Mac somewhere. If you use TimeMachine, you can get an older calendar out of User/Library/Calendar.
Another thought, and this may work only if you have MobileMe, is to go into your MobileMe preferences on your Mac, click on Sync, Advanced, and reset Sync Data. Choose MobileMe to overwrite your Mac.
These are my ideas. Hope they help.

IPhone sync to iTunes problem with version 10.3.1

I've just upgraded to iTunes 10.3.1.55 and my iPhone will no longer sync to iTunes. I've tried downloading and reinstalling but this made no difference.
I get the following message:
"iTunes cannot read the contents of the Iphone. Go to the summary tab in iPhone preferences and click Restore to restore this iPhone to factory settings"!
I picked up elsewhere that there was a problem with 10.3 which was supposed to be corrected with 10.3.1 but it seems that this update had not cured the problem.

Thanks for the info, Tom.
I've gone thru that Interoperating guide but I'll go thru it again. I don't see any error messages in my server logs. This is a single instance although the database does have multiple server instances connected to it. The data source name would be the same for all the server instances. Mine is the only one using the MDBs & WLS 10.3.1, others are using the stateless session beans. I'm using XA drivers & connection factories but I don't have any specific transactions defined in the Java code. Initially I didn't have the auto-acknowledge specified initially but thought maybe that is the problem. I have not knowingly specified any non-transactional config - if I did it would be via an omission.
So, if there is no problem in the WLS 10.3.1 supporting this acknowledgment then I'll keep reviewing my configuration.
Thanks again. I'll try to remember to post my solution.

Face time fades out and then tries to reconnect on new ipad retina display on WiFi. Iphone 4s has no problem with face time from exact same location and same contact. WiFi signal strong on both devices. What gives?

Is the router to small?
Not necessarily, if you are using Facetime all the data goes through your WiFi router, your cable/DSL modem, your ISP and the internet to Apple's Facetime servers and then, in reverse, down to the Facetime recipient. If your ISP connection is too slow or there is excessive traffic on the internet you can have Facetime problems.
Most WiFi routers can handle this unless others in the house are also using WiFi at the same time. The problem may be your ISP connection or congestion on the internet, etc.

My iPhone 5 is experiencing problems with the Wifi at home. It shows that it is connected to the wifi but anything that uses wifi doesn't load. The wifi works sometimes however but this is rare. How do I fix this?

My iPhone 5 is experiencing problems with the Wifi at home. It shows that it is connected to the wifi but anything that uses wifi (apps etc) doesn't load content and just looks like it's loading forever but nothing ever comes. However the wifi and wifi/internet dependant apps work sometimes but it's rare. How do I fix this?

Back up all data.
Unlock the Network preference pane, if necessary, by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your password. Cllck Advanced, open the DNS tab, and change the server addresses to the following:
          8.8.8.8
          8.8.4.4
That's Google DNS. Click OK, then Apply.
In Safari, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. If you’re using another browser, empty the cache. Test. Any difference?
Notes:
1. If you lose Internet access after making the above change to your network settings, delete the Google servers in the Network preference pane, then select the TCP/IP tab and click Renew DHCP Lease. That should restore the original DNS settings; otherwise restore them yourself. Remember that you must click Apply in order for any changes to take effect.
2. I don't use Google DNS myself, though I have tested it, and I'm not recommending it or any other DNS provider; the server addresses are offered merely for testing purposes. There may be privacy and technical issues involved in using that service, which you should investigate personally before you decide whether to keep the settings. Other public DNS services exist.

HT1349 Hi all,I have just purchased new iphone but have difficulty in completing the itunes download with message : problem with Windows installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected.

Hi all,I have just purchased new iphone but have difficulty in completing the itunes download with message : problem with Windows installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected.
Would appreciate help...its driving me up the wall!!

Perhaps let's first try updating your Apple Software Update.
Launch Apple Software Update ("Start > All Programs > Apple Software Update"). Does it launch and offer you a newer version of Apple Software Update? If so, choose to install just that update to Apple Software Update. (Deselect any other software offered at the same time.)
If the ASU update goes through okay, try another iTunes install. Does it go through without the errors this time?

Are there any other left eye dominant (or left handed) iPhone users that experience problems with the touch screen keyboard selecting the letter next to the one you'd intended..?

It's either hand right or left.
I have the same issue myself. Not sure if it's b/c my fingers are too big or if I'm really missed the letter on the keyboard.

This support document http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4451 relates to the 3194 error. Generally this error has to do with trying to install an iOS that is not the most current. Maybe you tried to jailbreak the phone, or downgrade iOS? Any of this apply to you?

Hello I want to say that apple iphone 5 even has problems with battery consumption. Charge my phone in the morning and sometimes I do not get to the full day. If they could fix this problem I would appreciate. I hope answers.

Hello!
I recently just downloaded the 'Waze' app as a backup for my Garmin. I've read a few reviews that seem to rant and rave about how good the GPS app is. It is community driven and maps are constantly being updated by users. Plus it has a few other fun stuff in it (something similar to Gasbuddy where you can owe prices on the map). But like the person above me said, there is lots of useful free GPS apps in the App Store.
Oh and I may be wrong but I remember reading an article about Google being slower about updating its maps system--ie no turn by turn voice, which many people have had complaints about.
Happy Searching!
Ps - if you switch I wouldn't go to Blackberry.

My iphone 5 has a problem with signal

My iphone 5 has a problem with signal, it always search for network. I had removed and plug sim card again but it doesn't work. Then I restore the iphone, and an exception was throw "... An unknown error has occured (3)."

unknow error 3 means the computer has lost communication with the device during the restore. It can be anything from bad cable, USB port, phone hardware etc.
Since your phone had a signal issue before, it would be your baseband chip faulty and when the restore tries to connect with the baseband chip to check (it does this when you restore) it waits till the chip responds then times out when it doesnt get any response. The restore will try this several times then eventually restart the phone to get out of the loop. As the phone gets restarted (or shutting off) itunes think the phone turned off and throws error 3.
Go to apple if it's under warranty. If not try to find where they do chip replacement as this is not something that you can do yourself.

ICloud not syncing and Contact problems with merging duplicates

I was having problems with the syncing of my notes app. When I got the iphone 5 I had since using Mountain Lion I had started to make use of the fact that the notes sync across iCloud. Great. Although not for long. Everything was going fine notes were syncing across devices but then spontaneously they stopped syncing for no apparent reason. I then went to look in settings, looked online and all through discussion forums. Switching notes on and off on icloud both on the macbook and on my iphone. Restarting devices etc etc. iCloud itself online was not able to access the notes app. I kept getting error messages that I would submit to apple. Then I finally relqinquished and unhooked the iCloud accounts from the computer and phone. And at the sacrifice of losing albums in my photostream they sprung back to syncing.
Then the real problem happened. I had selected to keep a copy of my address book in contacts when I unhooked my computer just in case. When everything linked back up again, I then had duplicates in my address book. Not 1 (this can happen just having icloud active) but 5 sets of duplicates, granted I had kept a version from when I unhooked. So I looked around again for how I could quickly and easily get rid of duplicates. Following suggestions online I go into contacts>cards>look for duplicates. I had 1200 or somthing duplicates, so naturally when given the option "would you like to merge the info in these duplicates I click yes. The MacBook starts to chugg away. Its gonna take a while. So I come back later. And before returning to CONTACTS, go to send a message from MESSAGES and I notice that 80% of the threads have no name. I go back to CONTACTS and WHAM 100s of contacts disappeared in the merge never to be retrieived again. You cant restore CONTACTS from Time Machine as it is just mirrors the contacts that you have in present time. Restoring phone doesn't work becasue it just downloads from iCloud after it has restored. TOTALLY RIDICULOUS. I am livid.

what I mean is - create a complete new contact on your contacts and select a picture for it from your Mac. Then set it as "make this my card"
Once you have done that - presumably it will sync with iCloud - have a look and the contact should appear on your iPhone too.
On your iPhone go on Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendar> Under "Contacts: in "My Info" select That new contact you created on your Mac.
Let me know if that works.
-On another note, so what you are saying is, if I take my 15' Macbook Pro in and they have none of the old ones in stock, they just give you a Retina display one! Did you take it to them for the contact issue you were having or something else?

Why did my calendar view suddenly change? Using iOS 7.1 and I've been using this version for a few weeks with no problem with my calendar. Now the view has changed and I can't view a list mode without seeing the month too

Why did my calendar view suddenly change in iCal? I've been using ios7 fôr a few weeks now with no problems. Suddenly, without any updates or anything, the calendar view changed and I can no longer view it as a list without having the entire month seen as well.

Hey Gattypyle,
Thanks for the question. You simply need to go back to Day/Week view, then tap the list-view icon once more.

Thanks,
