Messenger and other applications do not recognized the numbers that are on my contacts. Instead of showing names, they only show numbers. Any advice?
When someone in my contact list calls or texts me, the phone does not recognize and shows the name, but only the number as if the person that is calling me is not on my contacts. Any advice?
Found the fix, as this happened to me this morning...

If you're on Verizon, you can
ignore all the BS at the beginning, and under Additional Information, follow these steps:
If you are using using Verizon as your provider and iPhone displays the ten-digit number instead of the name of the other party, please follow these steps:
Dial *228 from your iPhone.
When prompted, select option 1.
When complete, you will hear a confirmation message.
Force the Contacts, Messages, and Phone applications to close using the following steps:
Ensure that you have recently opened the Contacts, Messages, and Phone applications.
From the Home screen, double-click the Home button to display the recently used apps.
Tap and hold the icon for the Contacts application until a red minus appears.
Tap the red minus to close the app.
Repeat the previous step for the Messages and Phone applications.
Tap the Home screen to return.
Turn iPhone off and then back on.
Hope this helps!

Some PDF files and other emails do not display the whole page. Is there a way to change that?
If an app does not behave as expected, try closing the app completely and reboot the iPad. It appears as though you have the original iPad. It helps if you list your iPad model and the iOS that you are running.
Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up. -

Headset too loud and other applications no longer adjust the volume
So I buried out my Speed-Link Medusa 5.1 USB headset and tried it out with Linux. Worked reasonably well, I plugged it in, set the headset as primary sound output with asoundconf as written in the wiki and rebooted.
Now I have two problems:
a) I had to lower the volume to about 5 percent or they would blow my brains out.
b) Sonata, Mplayer and similar software can no longer adjust my volume. Sonata simply shows the muted Icon eventhough it's not muted and Mplayer always shows full volume and I can't do anything.
Hope you can help me.mine is also pretty loud with linux, either i have to lower the master volume in alsamixer to a level where my sound system is not loud enough or i have to stay between 0.5 to 2 with the medusa nx (it is the new model). both are connected to the same plug in my xonar d2 soundcard.
anyway it is a great headset for gaming and even music is not bad with it (and remember...i am a hifi-freak ) -
When I attempt to install a non-Apple app - in this case Rosetta Stone - I do not get the prompts to follow after inserting the CD. I have searched for a way to activate them with no luck.
Rosetta Stone does make a Mac OS X compatible version of their software. You may be elligible for a crossgrade or a Mac version of their CD. Or you might need to consider installing Windows on your Mac, if the disc only has a .exe file.

I am having a problem burning a disc with ITunes. I get a message that I have to download the program again as there are some files that didn't download because of another disc burning program. I am sure this is true as I have Media Player and Nero on this computer. What is it that I have to look for or do? I have uninstalled both of these programs. Are there certain files that I have to delete? Please help.
Also, I have an Ipad and I put the cord into the Ipad and into the computer and now I can't get it out of the IPad. It is really in there tightly. I can get it out of the computer by clicking on safely remove hardware. Why did this happen? It has never happened before.
I would appreciate any help anyone can give me with these two problems. Thank you.
I am assuming that this ITunes is for Windows as it is on this computer and also on the Ipad.You'll have to reinstall iPhoto in order to get the themes linked back to the application. To do so you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/ folder,

Then install iPhoto from the disk it came on originally.

my phone will not let me put all thee stuff on my iphone to my computer...please help thx
bogdan0,
Tried that but did not work. Thank you for the reply. However, I did find the correct thing to do though so wanted to share.
Since on my computer I had to create a new admin account, I had to go into the shortcut properties of Itunes. Then hit Compatibility Tab. Had to check Run as Admin.
After hitting Change settings for all users it worked just fine. -
I now have ios7 downloaded and I can't close all the apps that are open
With the old system I could push the button on the bottom 2x and it would show me all the open apps so I could close them, now it shows me the open apps but I can't close any of them.
Thanks for the answer. I actually figured it out about an hour after posting, but I appreciate knowing that I had done the right thing.
It would be good to have a FAQ about this though, seeing others presumably have similar issues. -
im trying to fix this and have already synced my phone with itunes and restarted my phone, but nothing is working. does anyone know how to fix this?
If only some of the songs on an album are giving you the authorisation message, that suggests those song files are damaged.
If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items. -
I have several songs that I purchased. They show in my library, but won't play on any of my devices - including my computer. I keep getting the "authorize the computer" prompt. My computer is authorized! I have done all the troubleshoots that are available. How do I get my computer and other devices to be able to play these songs? Almost all my songs play except for about 8 or 9.

Trying to move my iTunes Music and other media from the main drive on my pc to an external hard drive but iTunes is not recognizing the new file location? Ideas?
Hello there, Underwriter.
The following Knowledge Base article provides in-depth instructions on how to migrate your content to an external drive:
iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4527
Particularly of note for your situation:
External drive
This option requires more work than Home Sharing, but it creates a backup of your iTunes library on the external drive in addition to moving your content.
Notes before you start:
You can use most iPods as an external drive.
Windows operating systems don't recognize Mac OS-formatted disks (HFS or HFS Plus formats). Because of this, you can't use a Mac-formatted iPod or external drive to move your music to a Windows PC. See iPod: How to determine iPod's hard disk format if you're not sure how your iPod is formatted.
Mac OS X can read Windows-formatted iPods and drives. This means there are many ways to migrate your information from your old Windows-based PC to your new Mac.
Mac OS X: To be sure external drives appear on your desktop, choose Preferences from the Finder menu. Be sure the options for "External disks" and "Hard disks" are enabled.
Part 1: Locating and consolidating the iTunes Media folder
Part 2: Copy iTunes folder from the old computer:
Part 3: Get iTunes ready on your new computer
Part 4: Back up any music that's already on your new computer
Part 5: Copy music to your new computer
Part 6: Add preexisting music that was on the new computer back into the library
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.
