I have an I pad 2 and I down loaded pictures from my old laptop onto it the problem is that it has duplicated my photos and won't let me delete them. It's using up a lot of my memory.

My phone downloaded photos from my computer and won't let me delete them. What can I do to get rid of the photos but not erase everything else?

Hi the beholder,
If you used your computer to sync the photos to your iPhone, that is how you will remove them as well. Click on the article for complete details. I've highlighted the key information here for you.

Delete synced photos
In iTunes, locate and click on your device.
Click Photos.
Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
To delete all synced photos, deselect "Sync Photos from" and, when asked, click "Remove photos."
Click Apply.

Just got my first iPhone, an iPhone5. I added the contacts via my Mac, but the phone on its own added my 5000 Facebook friends as contacts and won't let me delete them. How can I delete them? Thanks.

I just got my first cell phone, an iPhone5. I added my contacts via my Mac. But the phone on its own imported the contact info of all 5000 of my Facebook "friends." When I go to one of them, hit edit, and try to delete them, the phone tells me that I cannot delete a Facebook friend. This is a nightmare. Please, I beg you, tell me how I can get these Facebook friends off of my contacts list. Thank you!

Settings>Facebook>Contacts>Off.

I dowloaded an album to my iPad from iTunes and now I have no iTunes app and all music on my iPad has disappeared. My iMac won't let me sync because it thinks all my music is already installed/

You now need to get your pictures back! The similar to you, after I updated my iPad Mini, I can't get my some files on device. I tried many ways, fortunately, I got a tool from http://tinyurl.com/Data-Recovery-iPhone to help me recover lost files easily! It supports iPhone, iPad, iPod, etc iOS devices!

My iPhone 5c has a broken screen and won't let me swipe. I got a new iPhone 5c, but want my stuff to backup to it. I haven't backed my old one up in over a year because the storage is full. How would I back it up to iCloud on a Dell or Toshiba computer?

Hi Linda Loo Loo,
If you have backed up previously to iTunes on a specific computer, even if it has been a while, you may be able to still backup even if you are unable enter the passcode on your iPhone due to a damaged screen. You may find the following article helpful:
If you have previously synced your device with iTunes, you may be able to reset the passcode by restoring the device:
Connect the device to the computer with which you normally sync and open iTunes.
Note: If iTunes asks you to enter the passcode, try another computer that you have synced with. Otherwise, go to "If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer" section below.
If the device is still disabled, or if iTunes does not automatically sync your device, sync the device with iTunes.
When the backup and sync is complete, restore your device.
When iOS Setup Assistant asks to set up your device, choose "Restore from iTunes backup".
Select your device in iTunes and choose the most recent backup of your device.
iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode

My iPhone 5s has deleted all of my apps and won't let me download them again, what do I do?

My iPhone 5s ran completely out of charge, then when I charged it again i noticed that all of my apps had been deleted.. I thought that I would be able to re download them however it has deleted them and won't let me open them at all.. What should I do?

Launch the App Store. Tap on Updates. Tap Purchased. Tap "Not on this phone."

I want to delete ConstaSurf and SearchProtect but I get a message that they are in use and it won't let me delete them.

I started to download Firefox and without realizing it I agreed to some additional programs that I do not want on my computer. The ones I can identify are ConstaSurf and SearchProtect. When I try to delete them, I get a notification that they are in use or in another file, and it won't let me delete them. I would like to delete them and then try downloading Firefox more carefully. Thanks for any help. I am not computer savvy.

See this: http://malwaretips.com/blogs/constasurf-virus-removal/
For step 1 - Uninstall ConstaSurf program from your computer - thru the Control Panel
If that's where you get that message about them bring in use, try closing Firefox and any other browsers that you may have open and then try to uninstall those two.

Hello again,
Well I seem to have overcome the problem, but not easily, and not by identifying the cause. I don't like that I don't know what caused the trouble. I make no guarantees, but this is what I did (on an iMac with Snow Leopard 10.6.8). Be sure to create backup copies of your files first:
[Note: before you do any of this, you may want to try running Disk Utility program (found in Applications/Utilities/) and run the "Repair Permissions" option. See if that solves anything, but it didn't for me]
a) I exported my iCal as an archive: Menu item, "File/Export/iCal Archive...". This won't likely do you any good, though, as something was wrong with it and I could not re-import it. But try anyhow.
b) After backing them up, I deleted the folders and contents inside the Calendars folder: "Users/<your user name>/Library/Calendars/<subdirectories>". To create a backup, right-click on the Calendar folder and choose "compress Calendars" from the pop-up menu. Then drag the folder contents into the trash.
c) After creating backup copies, delete (drag into the trash) these preferences files found in "Users/<your username>/Library/Preferences" (the slashes delimit the folder names):
Users/<your username>/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iCal.plist
Users/<your username>/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iCal.helper.plist
Users/<your username>/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.iCal.helper.<some convoluted hex number>.plist
d) Restart your computer;
e) Launch iCal and reimport the individual calendar files you exported earlier.
Hopefully all is well.
Let me emphasize again that you will not likely succeed in reimporting the calendar archive. In the first place it likely contains corrupted data that caused your trouble in the first place. So you will need to import the individual calendars that have been exported. Be very certain to export these individually first.
And if you want to make doubly certain, then copy and paste some of your important and key events into a TextEdit file and save that file in case you don't succeed.
Perhaps you subscribed to some online calendar? If I recall correctly I had imported a calendar when the World Cup Soccer series was happening; I speculate that might have contributed to the issue. I wish I could have found exactly what caused the trouble. It may have been some older, less compatible format that was retained through a series of Mac OS updates.
Good luck.

For some reason my phone is using another number and won't let me delete the number and select my own numbers. Any reasons why

Are you talking about iMessage?

My ipad has a black screen and won't start, any ideas?

My Ipad 1 has a black screen and won't start, any ideas? It is charged.

If Paul's advice doesn't work try this.
Hold down on the sleep button AND the home button at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart.
BTW ...In order to start up under normal circumstances you only need to hold down on the sleep button for a couple of seconds or so until the Apple logo appears on the screen.

After I put three .mov files in to iMovie it will only let me out them in a certain order and won't let me move them around. Should I convert them to a different format?

I put the files on my desktop and imported them into iMovie but now it only lets me havce them in a certain order. iMovie won't let me drag them to different locations.

If they play OK in Imovie then the format is OK. Have you put them into a project timline or are you trying to rearrange them in an event?
Geoff.
