My husband's christian name shows up on I cloud instead of mine how do I change it?

My husband's christian name apperars on I cloud instead of mine. My name is on id but his is on the credit card. How can I get my name instead of his?

You need to set up the accounts in System Preferences/Accounts, then activate Fast User Switching.
That way you can quickly log in to your own account - then back to his.
You should obviously have different passwords.

In the Buddy window I see my daughter's name instead of mine. How do I get my name to show back up? The computer is only used by me, but my daughter uses iMessage from her iPad using my iTunes account with her email address.
Thanks much!

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely. Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

On iCal I invited someone to an event. But when it shows up on the other persons phone it doesn't have my name. It says my mom invited them. How do I change that?

Skip the iCloud sign in for now.
Once you reach the home page, go to settings and sign out of FaceTime and Messages. This should also sign you out of iCloud.
Go to iCloud in settings and sign in with the correct Apple ID.
If that does not work
Skip the iCloud sign in
Go to Apple ID.apple.com and sign in
Change your Apple ID to the old one
Delete iCloud account on your device with the old Apple ID and the same password.
Go back to the website, change your Apple ID back to the current one. You will receive an email to verify the account. Verify first.
Sign into iCloud on your device with the correct Apple ID and password

My MacBook Pro has no audio. Sounds preferences showing output is Optical digital-out port. How do I change this to built-in speakers?

My MacBook Pro has no audio. Sounds preferences showing output is Optical digital-out port. How do I change this to built-in speakers?

I experienced this same problem yesterday on my MacBook Pro, still searching for a solution, several other posts here indicate people have been experiencing this since at lease 2007. I have yet to find a clear solution.
It appears that occasionally inserting headphone causes this, it turns on the Optical digital-out port feature (red light glows inside the headphone port) and takes away the internal speakers option. Restarting did not restore it, but for some reason after sitting asleep overnight the sound started working again and the internal speaker option return in the Sound - Output Window, and the Optical Digital-out option went away.
Here is another post with some ideas on this

My iCloud on my iPad is in my ex partners name and I don't no his password . How can I change the username in 2 my name ?

iCloud from an account perspective is associated with the AppleID. Unless you have the password, there's nothing you can do to modify it.
As suggested, you just want to create your own and reassocited the iPad with your new one. You will lose data and purchased apps, however. Basically, you will be starting from scratch.

I fixed my problem so download iTunes on your computer/laptop. Connect your iPhone into the computer and then click load backup and after they finish loading the backup. Go to your settings and click reset all contents and settings and then your phone will turn off by itself and wait for your phone to turn on and then it will say hello and slide to set up but don't do anything. Go to your computer and click restore backup and then it will turn off again and then just wait for it turn back on and then when it turns back on. You won't lose anything. Just your apps because once you redownload them. They will already put it in the spot you used to put them and like games it will still save wherever level or part you are on of the game. Hope this solves your problem.

Go to settings >> iTunes and app stores. Tap on the appleid and change it yours. If you had downloaded any apps using your friend's id then you will need his/her password to update those apps. But you should be able to download any new apps using your id once you've have the change in settings.

HT1766 I got a new Ipad mini and tried to back it up to look like my Iphone, however, it chose to pick the stuff from my wife's Ipad instead. Now I'm showing her games and apps instead of mine.

I bought an Ipad Mini and tried to setup the mini through Icloud. It selected all my wife's Ipad games and apps instead of my Iphone games and apps. How do I get it to show my apps and games instead of her's?

Are you sharing the same iCloud and/or Apple ID?

I plugged in my husbands iphone 4 into my laptop and synced it to my laptop and phone with my apple ID. Now his phone has my email address and my name and my contacts on it! big booboo How can I change it all back to him!?

I plugged in my husbands iphone to my laptop and synced it to mine. I used my own apple ID. Big mistake. Now he has my name, email address,contacts etc on his phone and lost his... how do I correct this?

You'll have to set up his mail account again. To change the name, follow this article: iTunes: How to rename your device
After that right click on it in the device list and choose backup. A manual backup will be made, no sync process is included. When the backup is finished you should find it listed in iTunes/Edit/Preferences/Devices
