I share a macbook with my other half and we both use it for our iphones. When syncing using the new software I now have all of her and my contacts on my phone. I don't want her contacts! How do I get rid?

Hi,
You have 2 solutions:
1 - You can use 2 differents icloud account
2 - You use the same account but you don't sync yours contacts.
You configure that in Settings > icloud
You activate or desactivate what you want.
Have a nice day.

I need to be able to print or export some photos from iPhoto with the date the photos were taken. Need this for a legal case. Any suggestions?

The date they were taken us in the EXIF data and is included in the export
However it is trivial to modify it so I doubt that it would hold water in court

I have a calendar on IPhoto that I had created in 2012 but never ordered. If I order it now will the year be updated?

Hello there Apple buddies,
I have a question for whoever wants to help
I have a calendar on IPhoto that I had created in 2012 but never ordered.

The year is set in the Calendar settings.
You can update it there, before ordering the Calendar.
And make a PDF-preview of the calendar, before ordering it: iPhoto, Aperture: Previewing an order in iPhoto or Aperture

Iphone 4s screen icons jumping around like you are touching the home button. Acts as if someone is opening apps. Any suggestions?

You didn't, but you are about the 4th person today who has done this. It just wastes my time, and yours, and gets frustrating after awhile.
I do believe you have a screen/logicboard issue and while you can try Restoring it from backup in iTunes, and then as a new iPhone if that doesn't work, I don't believe it will help.

While updating the firmware Update, i disrubted the download and now my macbook won't start up! Any suggestions on how to fix it? i only see a black screen

While updating the firmware Update, i disrubted the download and now my macbook won't start up! Any suggestions on how to fix it? i only see a black screen and when i press the power button i hear the noise that it would make if it was going to start up. But i only see black.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

HT1430 My new iPAD3 has uneven brightness on screen. Left half is brighter than right half. Any suggestions how to fix it?

My new iPAD has uneven brightness on screen. Left half is much brighter than right half. Any suggetions to fix it or shall I go for warranty replacement?

If restarting or rebooting doesn't resolve the issue and the device is new, I would contact Apple or wherever you bought the iPad, show it to them and if they can't figure out, ask for a replacement.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Firefox loads, icon is on task bar but when clicked the graphics slide off to the right but don't fill the screen & when clicked again, falls back into the icon

Firefox, Thunderbird & Quicken were active when I loadad & ran a slot machine game. When I exited the game & clicked the icon to return Firefox to full screen, I could see the image flash off to the right side of my monitor screen and disappear. When I again clicked on the icon in the task bar, the reverse happened- the image flashed from the right down to the icon. When I hover the mouse pointer over the icon, the open screens show up with the red X to close but the same thing happens when I click on that box. The other two programs that were open while the game was active are working fine, only Firefox has been affected. I cannot open the program to access any of the menu items as I cannot get the screen image on the monitor. I did uninstall the program and reinstall a freshly downloaded copy I had to use IE, as I am now) but with the same results when I run it. I did chose to save my settings so if something has been changed there then that might be the problem.

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

When I click on a tab in the toolbar the tab flies off the screen to the right. Suddenly after using firefox for years I cannot load any pages

I'm using Windows XP. I've used Firefox for years but in recent weeks I've had the following problem. When I endeavour to open an internet site the tab appears in the toolbar at the bottom of the screen instead of loading the page. When I click on the tab it appears to fly across the right of screen and disappears from view. Fortunately we've left an internet page OPEN so that we can redirect our search via that. Today we had a power cut and now I cannot get Firefox to load anything. At the moment I'm using Explorer to write this. We've made no changes to our system and we're continuing to use the same virus checker we're had for years. (Kaspersky)
One last point. When I try to load any site in Links the tab changes to the correct name but then flies off as I've previously mentioned. When I right click on the tab and choose Max or Min I have no reaction. I've tried rebooting the computer and turning it off but this does not fix the problem. I've also uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled the latest version all to no avail. Please, can someone help? Micam

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

My macbook pro suddenly freezes; screen turns off and computer freezes. Have to hard restart. Error message appears upon restart, saying something about kernel, etc. Can anyone please help on this issue?

For the past month or more I've encountered what I consider to be quite a serios problem with my Macbook pro. The laptop suddenly freezes without warning, the screen turns black, while the hard drive apparently stals and the system no longer responds. The only way to resolve this issues is to restart the computer via a hard reset. After restarting, an error message box shows up asking me to report the error, which I've already done on numerous occassions. The problem occurs at a frequency of 1 every 2-3 days, sometimes more often than that. The error message that comes up is very complicated but contains some key words amongst which includes "kernel." This makes me believe that it's an issue with the video card, and was wondering how I can remediate this problem so as to get the normal function of my laptop back. If anyone can be of any help, I would greatly appreciate it.

When making a new playlist, the screen layout has changed, the playlist header is now on the left instead of the right, this does not allow me to drag the songs onto the playlist, how do I reset?

When Making a new play list, the play list was on the right of the screen and this allowed you to drag your music onto the playlist, my setup has changed to the left of the screen which does not allow you to drag your music across, how do I reset?

In the top corner of iTunes is a small icon with a down arrow, click on that and choose 'show menu bar'.

13" MBP Screen glitches and computer freezes when I hold it wrong...

Sorry for the newbie question. I just got my MBP and ordered the Kingston 8gb deal on buy.com last week. After install I noticed if I pick up the computer and hold it on the right hand side almost underneath the option button, the screen glitches and turns into a bunch of colored lines then crashes. I have to hold the power button down to shut it off then restart. I kind of feel a little bit of give at that area...is that a known issue or does it have anything to do with the new 3rd party ram? Please help!

My screen goes black and computer freezes. I know this is a software based problem. Any suggestions?

About a month ago I installed an Intego software package on my computer. After it was installed my computer began to randomly freeze. The freezing would start with the screen going black and then fans spinning up. Closing the screen didn't help. Only rebooting did. I took my Macbook to a repair service and they said that the hardware was perfectly fine. They recommended a full wipe and reinstall. I have since uninstalled Intego and for about a week my computer seemed fine. Since then, however it has started acting up again. I'm thinking about doing the wipe and reinstall of ML but am hesistant. Any suggestions what I can do to avoid that?

Hello nattygrimm,
I was looking into the issue you are describing and found a great resource to try and fix the issue without having to re install the OS. It is an article called Mac OS X: How to troubleshoot a software issue found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1199.
I recommend starting here:
The first and easiest test to try is to see if the issue affects a different user account on your Mac. Each user account has customized preferences and other items stored in its home directory. You'll first need to create an additional user if one does not already exist (follow steps a-h below). Then, log out of the current user and test the issue in the new user account.
If this resolves the issue, there may be an issue with a file in the home directory of the original user account.
From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
From the View menu, choose Accounts (or choose Users if using Mac OS X v10.2 or earlier).
Click "+" (or click New User if using Mac OS X v10.2 or earlier).
Give the new user a name and short name.
Mac OS X v10.3 or earlier only: Click the Password tab, and give the user a password.
Mac OS X v10.3 or earlier only: Click Security.
Select the checkbox for "Allow user to administer this computer". This makes the user account an administrator.
Click OK, or quit System Preferences.
Work your way down the article as needed.
All the best,
Sterling
