My Info Keeps Changing

My wife and I both have iPhones.  Every now and then the "My Info" under Settings/General/Siri changes.  Sometimes I will go to use my phone and it has my wife listed in the My Info.  Or sometimes, my wifes phone will have me listed in the My Info.  Why does this keep happening, how can I fix this?
Thanks

We have one Mac, one iPad and two iPhones. We share our calendar, contacts, notes etc. We don't need duplicate contacts or calendars. That's why we share. If she updates a contact, then it's updated for both of us. I suppose I can make her Contacts the default on her phone and have her as the only contact in it so she can choose it for "my info".
But why does Apple allow you to choose a default CONTACTS database and not tell you, oh by the way, your phone now thinks you're someone else until you change your default CONTACTS database to your own. Seems more like a glitch to me.

  • My contact info keeps changing between my iPhone and iPad on its on.

    For some reason my contact info changes on its own between my iPhone and iPad.  I can add a new photo and contact info and then
    For some reason I look the next day and the pictures gone and contact info isn't there?

    well the way icloud works besides the back up part of it is if you add a contact on your phone it will go to any other device that has the same apple id on it, Why the info is change im not sure about that but you can try turning off icloud and see if it still happens

  • Why does "My Info" keep changing on my devices?

    My wife and I both have an iPhone and iPad (iOS 5.0.1) synced with a Mac (Lion).  We want to have all of our calendar, contacts and information synced over so we use with one iCloud account.  And it syncs beautifully and almost instantaneously as well.
    Here is the problem.  Now that we are using iMessage on all devices, each of our devices switch back and forth in "My Info" seemingly randomly so that her devices sometimes switch to my address card in "My Info" and vice versa.  The email addresses connected to the corresponding iMessage work fine, but sometimes the icon/avatar and also the "My Info" link switch back and forth.  This happens on my Mac as well.
    We like having all of our iCloud information synced to one account for information, but "My Info" switching back and forth randomly is annoying.  Does anyone have a  suggested fix for this?
    Thanks.

    I have the exact same problem. Good to see no one is listening. Wow.

  • HT1911 I just verified my Apple user ID and password but certain updates won't download (gives me the signal that I'm incorrect).  I keep changing it, verifying but not all applications let me proceed.

    I just verified my Apple user ID and password but certain updates won't download (gives me the signal that I'm incorrect).  I keep changing it, verifying but not all applications let me proceed.  So I can't download itunes software updates or update my iphone even though I have just verified my info.  I know others that have this problem but can't get support to resolve it.

    Hi mpellichero,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.

  • Is there any way to turn off the auto formatting in Pages?  I just want to type a letter and add pictures and titles, and Pages keeps changing font sizes and doesn't let me "Do it my way".  I HATE this!

    Is there any way to turn off the auto formatting in Pages?  I'm using a blank document, so I figured I could write my letter and add pictures any way I wanted to.  But NO!  Pages keeps changing the font size!  I typed a large heading as a title, and when I try to change to a smaller font for the body of the letter, it changes the size back to the larger size!  I am getting SO FRUSTRATED!  I've spent over an hour trying to get the stupid program to let me just type my letter!  Can anyone help?

    The only one left is the "unsubmitted text" dialogue, which would not be a problem if I were not a Facebook user; after updating the "Richard is..." field (which does not require a manual submit to actually send) I get the above message. This is obviously Safari just not realising that the info has been sent and is therefore (I imagine) one for Apple themselves to answer!!
    You're welcome Rich. Glad to help.
    Not being a Facebook User, I'm not sure how to respond to the error situation. However, this would be something to report to Apple as a bug via the Safari Menu. First, open to the page in question, then select "Report Bugs to Apple".

  • Service settings keep changing?????

    I have digital voice and someone keeps changing my settings on the services I have. Is this your programmers or someone who is making changes?
    Example: I have simultaneous ring turned on for my home office line and somehow it keeps getting turned off without me logging in.
    Please fix this or I will have to seek better service.

    If you have invested a lot of money into your computer system etc, I suggest that you take it to a dealer like Comp USA, Best Buy, C.City etc. It’s possible that you have many issues affecting your computer operation.
    To my knowledge there are no known issues with Itunes that causes the problem's you mention!
    I don’t think this is the best forum or Itunes catagory to resolve what could be complex computer problems.
    That’s why when you purchase the computer you should have a warranty and or Technical Support included for issues you may have.
    The reason I mention Virus is because you have to start somewhere, and with the little info you gave out, that’s where I thought you should start.
    To Contact Apple Tech-Support call – 1800-275-2273. Good Luck!!!

  • Songs in itunes keep changing information.

    It generally happens after I play them, they'll revert back to their original info. It tends to be MP3s downloaded from Vuze, but it is happening to a few AAC files too (including ones from CDs). I've tried converting ID3 tags but they keep changing back, tried changing the info in windows explorer but still seems to change back. There's one album that I've changed enough times that it has stayed the same, could it be a case of doing that (seems incredibly long winded. It's taken me long enough to get through half the tracks let alone think of doing them all several times over). If anyone could suggest anything that would be awesome, thanks.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of this test is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account. Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The "Guest User" login created by "Find My Mac" is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.

  • Logic instrument keeps changing on playback

    Logic string instruments keeps changing to different instrument during playback even though I have re-recorded it as a particular instrument that I want.  How do I fix this problem and get it to play the sound that I intend it to play originally?  I am using a string sound from the Logic Library.  Need to get the track to stop switching the instrument to another instrument sound during playback.

    Do you mean that the strings are changing to a different articulation (ie legato to pizzicato or similar), or completely changing sounds altogether (eg strings to synth or something)?
    If the former, many of Logic's Orchestra sounds repond to MIDI CC1 (Mod wheel) to change articulations. Possibly, you are recording such info, or you rcontroller is transmitting the data on "on it's own". There are usually alternative sounds available without the switching function.

  • Com.apple.alf.plist file keeps changing group membership

    Hey All, I've read several discussions about this issue.  The com.apple.alf.plist file keeps changing group membership from admin to wheel.  Disk Utility repair changes the group membership to admin but it will change back to wheel during normal use of the computer, it seems that accessing systempreferences.app and security preferences will change the group to wheel. 
    I don't really want to get into a discussion about the wheel account, unless necessary, but since this is a very important system settings file I'd like it to work correctly.  I have noticed several issues with the firewall not responding as expected such as turning off by itself, and app settings changing or disappearing from the security preference pane.  So, I have deleted the plist file and restarted as recommended on other discussions but the issue always returns during normal use.  I think it might be the application owning the plist file causing the issue, but I am not sure which one owns the plist file.  I assume it would be systempreference.app since I think it is a firewall plist file. The permissions for systempreferences.app is strange also; 
    - everyone - custom
    - system    - read/write
    - wheel      - read/write
    - everyone  -read
    This may be the culprit but I tried to make a minor change, so as not to mess up the operating system, and disk utility repair permissions just puts it back the way it was.   Any ideas about this would be very appreciated.
    Note:  I have done a complete system reinstall and the issue still returns.

    OK, Since I haven't gotten any responses about this it must be a complicated issue.  Just as a quick check could some of you good people out there look at the "Get Info" window for the systempreferences.app and see if your permissions look like mine?  I'm still having trouble with the firewall settings not acting as expected such as apps and processes that I have approved/denid connection access not showing up in the firewall pane of system preferences and having to reapprove each startup.  Thank you in advance for any help on this.

  • Why do my disk permissions keep changing?

    can someone please tell me how the permissions on my Macbook keep geting corrupted under normal use?   have been programming and traching UNIX in some form or another since 1983. I have never seen anything like  the conditions in OS X where this happens continually.
    The disk repair messages seem absolutely bogus. Ho can something be listed as a file rw-r--r-- aand then say it is supposed to be a Directory! (drw-r--r--)
    There has to be some kind o bug or OS X developers are very lax with their install/modificaton scripts.
    Can someone enlighten me on this??

    I would seriously like to know the answer to this as well.
    I never had a problem until recently. I am running 10.8.3, but have been for some time now.
    A few weeks ago, I had an issue with permissions, came to the forum, saw someone's suggestion to "get info" and change the permission level. Somehow my name had been removed entirely and it was under something else like guest or something.
    Tonight, I am working on labeling and moving some of my son's vacation photos - photos first installed over a year ago. I have been working on this folder and these photos, opening, viewing, moving, renaming etc. for 2 days - the same origin folder - with NO problem. Tonight, suddenly, several photos in, the next 3 photos in line say I don't have permission. It suggests I do "get info" and change the permissions. I do this, and there I am, my user name clear as day with both read AND write permissions already! I have read and write permissions visible for both these photos as well as the folder itself and even the dang hard drive and still it isn't letting me access MY files!

  • Status keeps changing from invisible to online: why the issue is ignored?

    There is a serious issue raised in the parallel thread, which is critical for many people: "Status keeps changing from invisible to online" (initiated on ‎16-11-2014 by b.agne, Mac section). In short, when starting using a device, the Skype status changing from "invisible" to "online" - sometimes just for a moment, though enough for others to notice you. These affects very much any type of devices. I am sure the issue has already led to multiple personal crisises and potentially financial losses due to buseness partnership issues (I came close to that myself, and now use anything but Skype for business). The question is: WHY the issue is completely ignored by Skype, Microsoft and expert comunity? Please post the solution if anybody knows how to fix the issue, or suggest how to make Microsoft to know that it should be fixed. Kind regard...

    Hi, I also have the same issue. I change the status to Invisible and a later on it is already as "Online", without having even touched/opened Skype. The only way that I see this may happen is that I have the app installed on the smartphone, but before it never had this issue, but from some month ago it started. Any correction or suggestion to work around this issue? Regards

  • I have a mac pro, an ipad2 and now an ipod touch. Problem is my apple ID password is not recognized, and I cannot download or purchase applications. I have had to keep changing my password than it doesn't accept the new one either??? It says it's a year o

    I just bought an ipod touch and am trying to make an application purchase on it and to use icloud to transfer to my ipad or laptop.
    I cannot sign in.  the password is never accepted. How do I get into applications to purchase or download some of what I have on my ipad?
    This sign in on the ipod touch has the address computerservice1614.com  I don't even know what that is.  I signed in with my apple ID but had to keep changing the password because the ipod won't accept any of them.  I am feeling so frustrated and wishing I didn't buy the ipod.  Anyone know how to deal with this.  I am so tired of trying. This is my second day of trying.

    I would restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod on your computer and start over. It appears the iPod is associated with another account.  Any media that came with the iPod does not belong to you and di not transfer with the iPod hardware.
