My iCloud and Contact images keep getting mixed up with my wife's

My wife and I have two different iCloud accounts but we have Family Sharing enabled. Whenever I change my iCloud image (the little picture that shows up whenever I send an iMessage, for example) it also changes her image, so we end up chatting with both of our icons looking the same. And then when I change her image, for example in my address book, it changes my iCloud image to match hers. So we always end up with the same icon. How can I make sure we each have separate images for our separate iCloud accounts, and in our respective address books?

log in to iCloud.com and check the contacts that are stored there.
Make sure that YOUR contact info is identified as the "MAKE THIS MY CARD"
to do that go to the settings icon (bottom left) and click on the MAKE THIS MY CARD option
hope it works... it worked for me!

  • How can I organize Songs and Albums that keep getting mixed

    I am new to Ipod Nano I would like to know if I can keep the songs seperate from downloaded Albums. So I can play only individual mp3s not the full albums as the two seem to be mixed. I there a better way to keep songs and Albums organised to they dont keep getting mixed.

  • My iPhone 4 (and now 4s) keeps getting bogged down with 3-8 GB of "Other Files". The only way I'm able to clear it up is to do a fresh wipe of the phone and then start all over in terms of customizing my phone, settings, etc. This not acceptable. Help

    This is a ridiculous, Microsoft like, workaround. Please address this in an update or someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong to cause this and how to correct it without completely wiping out my phone every 2 weeks.

    other files is not garbage it's podcasts and storage used by apps and the likes
    you keep getting them because you keep installing stuff that take up the space

    10.6.8 cannot access iCloud's facilities - you can set Mail up manually and there is a hack which some people have used to sync calendars (see below) - you cannot sync any other type of data.
    This is the situation with iCloud and Snow Leopard:
    Your email, calendars, and 'Find my iPhone' will be migrated to iCloud. Contacts and Bookmarks cannot be migrated from a Snow Leopard Mac.
    Your iDisk, together with website hosting and Gallery, will continue to work as before until next June.
    Syncing of Dashboard Widgets, Dock Items and Keychains between Macs, and Mail Accounts, Mail Rules, System Preferences, Signatures & Smart Mailboxes between Macs & iOS devices, will cease altogether.
    You will be able to access email and calendars on the iCloud website at http://icloud.com provided your browser is reasonably up-to-date.
    You will not be able to sync contacts or bookmarks from a pre-Lion Mac.
    You will be able to enter the server settings for email manually in the Mail application and access your email.
    You will not be able to sync your calendars directly.
    Some people have been able to set up calendar syncing by using the method detailed here - this is an unsupported hack and may not be reliable, and may stop working at some future point.  BusyCal is an iCal-like calendar application with extra facilities: it can sync with the iCloud Calendar while running on Leopard, Snow Leopard or Lion.
    There appears to be no method of syncing contacts (though Address Book on a Mac can be synced with Google or Yahoo address books - I don't know how reliable this is).

  • TS1717 Trying to download iTunes onto PC installed with windows vista. Download keeps getting to 99% with 1 second remaining and then freezes / does nothing? Any help appreciated.

    Trying to download itunes onto PC installed with windows vista. Download keeps getting to 99% with 1 second remaining and then freezes / does nothing? Any help appreciated.

    I solved the problem! The updates orignally were downloaded to the C: drive of the server. I've since moved them to the E: drive and for some reason the Content folder in IIS didn't change the file path to the new WSUScontent folder.
    The root cause for this was failing to use the UTILITY designed for this very purpose.
    I edited the virtual directory settings in IIS and was able to put the correct path in.
    You still need to use the UTILITY.. to fix all the other stuff you're still missing.
    In the %ProgramFiles%\Update Services\Tools folder...
    WSUSUTIL MOVECONTENT E:\WSUS E:\WSUS\MoveContent.LOG -SKIPCOPY
    This problem was caused by moving the WSUS updates to a different local drive.
    No. This problem was caused by IMPROPERLY moving the WSUS updates to a different local drive.

  • I updated my itunes this morning, and now I keep getting an error message when trying to burn a disc. Any ideas how to resolve this?

    I updated my itunes this morning, and now I keep getting an error message when trying to burn a disc. Any ideas how to resolve this?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

Does anyone know how apple are involved with the unlock as  im jst not getting any answers from orange and they just keep saying they dont know why its takng so long

    If it is Orange Uk then no surprises
    They locked it originally and it is their gift to unlock ....usually in their own time.

    You are seeing the message because the new AirPort Extreme has some specific System Requirements:
    http://www.apple.com/airport-extreme/specs/
    Setup and Administration
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later and AirPort Utility 1.3
    Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and AirPort Utility 6.3
    AirPort Utility 5.6.1 in Snow Leopard may or may not work correctly with the new Extreme for all functions. As long as things are working OK for now, you can probably leave them "as is" and wait for another Mavericks update to fix some issues before you "upgrade".
    If you have an iPhone or iPad, you could use that to administer any settings changes on the new Extreme.

    My issue turned out possibly being a larger problem. 
    All of a sudden the server is in a bad, bad way.  30 minutes to get booted to the login screen.  If I try to login I get beachballs for half a second at a time.  I type login/password, the screen refreshes and I'm back to the login screen.  I can't connect a keyboard/mouse directly to it, because it wants to do the keyboard recognition (I'm not using an Apple keyboard because they're all Bluetooth and I can't get in to do the Bluetooth sync).  I can't do Disk Utility, because I can't connect a keyboard to do the key shortcut.  I can't do Hardware Test, because I can't connect a keyboard to do the key shortcut.  Can't reinstall Snow Leopard Server, because in their infinite wisdom Apple has removed the optical drive, and even if I had the optical, it wouldn't do any good because I can't connect a keyboard to do the key shortcut that would allow me to boot from the DVD.
    I tried to do target disk override from Remote Desktop but it won't let me choose my other Mac's Remote Disc as a boot option.  It also continues to show the Server as "Offline" even though power is on and it's on the network.
    I would do my 2010 Air's USB drive - just to do a Disk Utility and see if it's a drive problem - but I can't tell the Server to boot from the USB stick.
    Tried using my iMac as a monitor, that worked for a while, now it just flashes and then goes back to the iMac.
    I'm thinking the logic board on this thing is about to die.  Which is unfortunate, since my company opted out of AppleCare for this piece of equipment, and the 1 year expired last month.  So...if the repair is going to end up being $800, they're going to have to pony up for a new server.
