Need help with my contacts and email - used to have ipod touch

Hi all
I had an ipod touch in the past that I used to sync through the laptop i'm on now. However, I sold that quite some time ago and just got a new iphone the other day. when I hooked it up to my laptop to set up, my old touch account came up. This normally wouldn't be a problem but now it's syncing all my OLD contacts (thousands of them) and old email accounts...some of which are not in my windows live mail anymore.
How do I go about:
1) getting rid of all these contacts that were just loaded onto the phone
2) starting new to add only the contacts I have in my windows live contacts list?
I've tried deauthorizing the computer but that didn't do anything other than delete old apps I had on the touch.
Much appreciated!

Were you provided an option to transfer the backup from your Touch to your iPhone that you accepted?
Which supported application on your computer are you syncing contact info with?
With Vista, this can be with Outlook 2003 or 2007, or with the address book used by Windows Mail with Vista - which is the name change for Outlook Express with Vista. The address book is called Windows Contacts I believe and the sync option for contact info is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences.

  • Need Help with Scheduling, Saving, and Emailing a Report From Apex

    My ultimate goal is to schedule a report to be created in apex, save it to the database (in pdf), and then email it.
    I can schedule the proc which underlies the report. I can send an email from the databse. But I don;t know how to do all three of these in an automated fashion via apex. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Good afternoon,
    I run this type of process in a complete Windows environment - the client was Windows XP and the Database & Application Server were both Windows Server 2003.
    Typically, I would build a .BAT file within a Page Procedure that included a line to run the report, saving to a .PDF file and then generate a sql statement that would send an email to the user. In your case, you would want to email the .PDF as an attachment. My email was a notification that the report was ready for them to download and they would access their FTP folder.
    You can then schedule the .BAT file to run using the Oracle Scheduler to have that process run as an executable. The scheduler allows you set the date/time the process should run. To do this, your user must have CREATE JOB and CREATE EXTERNAL JOB privileges to run external jobs. (see the Oracle DB Admin manual for further details).
    Good luck,
    Don.

  • Need help with account sharing and email

    I'm an inexperienced Mac user with a G5, dual 2.0 processors and 1.5 meg ram. Just installed iLife 05 and having an iPhoto problem. My spouse and I have separate user accounts on the same pc. We'd like to share our photos with one another (they're actually the same photo's). On my account, iPhoto email is "mail", no problem. On hers it displays Entourage. I can't change it from preferences pane. Greyed out. On my account it shows America on line but the email icon is "mail" Can you help. We both want "mail"
    What is the proper way to share this account? Do we check preferences and share or do we go to the User accounts and move the photo library? Please provide a basic explanation to one who is not really familiar with the workings of a Mac. That's why I went to a Mac in the first place. It just generally works.
    Thanks in advance.
    Al

    The iPhoto sharing that was in the previous version doesn't seem to exist. There is now iCloud Photo Sharing.

    I don't know about the file sharing issue.

  • The contacts and calendar data on my iPod touch will not sync with my Mac

    I have a 2nd generation ipod touch, and an iMac running iTunes 8.2.1.
    I have been away from my mac for a few months and have entered a lot of contact and calendar info into my ipod touch.
    Now, when I try to sync the contacts and calendar data on my ipod touch with my mac, the data will not sync to my mac.
    Similarly, for the last couple months, the contact and calendar data on my ipod touch has not been able to sync with my mobileme account.
    I cannot afford to lose the contact and calendar data on my ipod touch.
    Can anyone kindly inform me how to fix this syncing problem without losing such data?

  • How do I activate a used iPhone 3 with no SIM card for use as an ipod touch?

    How do I activate a used iPhone 3G with no SIM card for use like an iPod Touch? It was apparently on AT&T previously and I have another iPhone 3 that is active on AT&T if that is helpful. Thanks!

    Copied from the link provided.
    Follow these steps to use your iPhone without a wireless service plan:
    Insert the SIM card from your new, activated iPhone or one that was previously used to activate the original iPhone.
    Connect the iPhone to iTunes on a computer connected to the Internet.
    Once iTunes activates the device, you're free to use the iPhone as if it were an iPod touch.

  • Need help with multiple devices and apple id

    Between my husband and myself, we have two Iphones, two Ipads, and one Imac.  I back all of them up on my Imac using ONE iTunes account....we prefer not use Icloud, and I think that helps keep the information on each device relatively separate from each other...no overlaps with contacts and calendars.  We have one APPLE id and password, that we use for Itunes and the App Store.   We just got the Iphone 6 for my husband, and it keeps asking him to enter his Icloud PW.(his recognized user name is his PRIMARY email address)...which presumably he does not have, nor does he need (or maybe he does I need some real guidance on that).  To keep this from making him crazy can I just delete his Icloud account, which again presumably, was created automatically with the new Iphone 6 set up??
    Similarly, I need to use FIND my Phone (etc), and HIS devices are not in MY listed devices....is this because he NEEDS his own APPLE ID, or is there a way to add his devices to my list of devices within the APP....I thought because we share the Itunes account they should all be in MY devices.
    Can someone help me make sense of this?
    THANKS!!

    Hello melissaben6250,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. 
    I understand that you are not seeing your husbands new iPhone 6 in your Find My iPhone app. First, while you may "prefer not use iCloud", you are using it, at least in regards to Find My iPhone for your existing devices.
    Now, for your husband's phone and Find My iPhone. It sounds like during the setup of his phone, he logged in to his Apple ID and even possibly created another iCloud account. In order to see his phone on your existing Find My iPhone, it will have to log in to the iCloud account where the other devices are signed in. Take a look at this article on troubleshooting Find My iPhone, especially the first section on the device not appearing.

  • Need help with PHP contact form

    Hi guys,
    I've made a PHP contact form for my site and need help with a couple of things:
    The form action links an external PHP script (scripts/contact-form-script.php) but is there a way I can have it so the PHP script for the form is contained within the same PHP file as my contact form (contact.php)?
    I tried just putting the form code at the top of contact.php but the browser automatically reads the anti-spam re-direct, so maybe that needs revising too?
    The second thing is, how can I make the Name, Email and Message fields mandatory? So if a user tries to submit the form and hasn't filled in one of the required fields and clicks submit, contact.php reloads with a message at the top of the form saying something like 'Complete the required fields' and highlights the relevant field with a red border?
    Here's the code for contact.php:
    <form action="http://www.mydomain.com/scripts/contact-form-script.php" method="post" name="contact" id="contact">
    <p><strong>Name:*</strong><br />
    <input name="name" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
    <p><strong>E-mail:*</strong><br />
    <input name="email" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
    <p><strong>Telephone:</strong><br />
    <input name="telephone" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
    <p><strong>Company:</strong><br />
    <input name="company" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
    <p><strong>Address:</strong><br />
    <input name="address1" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
    <p><input name="address2" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
    <p><strong>Town:</strong><br />
    <input name="town" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
    <p><strong>County:</strong><br />
    <input name="county" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
    p><strong>Postcode:</strong><br />
    <input name="postcode" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
    <p><strong>Message:*</strong><br />
    <textarea name="message" cols="55" rows="8" class="ctextField"></textarea></p>
    <p><input name="submit" value="SEND MESSAGE" class="submitButton" type="submit" /><div style="visibility:hidden; width:1px; height:1px"><input name="url" type="text" size="45" id="url" /></div></p>

  • Need help with show/hide and layers moving

    I'm more of a designer, so I don't know code or CSS well at
    all. I'm doing an online portfolio for a class and need help with
    layers not staying in place in different browsers. The portfolio is
    created with a table, but I wanted to use the show/hide function
    for thumbnails of work. Are layers the only way you can use this
    function? I read layers don't work well with tables, so how else
    can I make it so when you mouse over a thumbnail, the larger image
    appears in another cell?

    > I don't know code or CSS well at all.
    That's unfortunate.
    > layers not staying in place in different browsers.
    Layers don't move. But the rest of your page does.
    Before you get too wrapped up in layers, though, please read
    this -
    http://www.great-web-sights.com/g_layerlaws.asp
    They are not good when be used as a primary layout method.
    > I read layers don't work well with tables
    They work fine with tables - but you have to understand both
    tables and
    layers to use them.
    Why not show us your page, so we can see what you are
    struggling with?

  • Need help with Airport Express and so on.

    Ok so my main problem before getting into what I need help with here is that our MacBooks and now my iPhone 6 plus isn't staying online. Keep getting booted off and then I either have to select the network again or it will eventually go back on. If anyone has a solution or so please feel free to answer that as well. I'm running on Roadrunner with a Netgear 600 wireless router and a motorola modem. Both of which I'll leave the link to below for a better look.
    My Main Question: So I'm looking at a new wireless router mainly and possibly a new modem. I know Apple products are trustworthy but how good is the Airport Express and other Airport products. Also what is the Maximum speed and Maximum data speed for the cheapest express station and if anyone knows the speeds of the other devices it would be greatly appreciated.

    DSL Router to Netgear 5-port Switch and I used the switch to connect to Airport Extreme, TV, Blue-Ray DVD player and DirecTV Receiver.
    The AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) is a router so it will do what you need.
    You need to reconfigure your setup. Connect the WAN port of the AEBS to the DSL router. Then connect the Netgear switch to one of the LAN ports on the AEBS. The AEBS will properly share the connection.

  • Need help with Page Layout and Background Scaling

    hello, everyone.
    I am in the process of designing a new website for myself,
    and while I was researching nicely designed pages to use as
    inspiration, I stumbled upon this site:
    http://www.jeffsarmiento.com/
    obviously, the design is very impressive, but it also
    incorporates a lot of web mechanics that I have been trying to
    figure out, so I will use this page as an example.
    one thing I need help with is backgrounds. as you can see in
    the posted website, the creator used a seamlessly tiled paper
    texture to display the bulk of his content on. also make not of the
    pattern that is located to the left of the paper texture. how do I
    create seamless backgrounds like this that will scale to fit any
    amount of content or any resolution? I can't imagine that the guy
    that made that site created a new size background every time he
    made an update, so there has to be an easier way.
    the second thing that I am having trouble with is general
    site layout. I have read that most sites used series of invisible
    tables to organize there content, but when I open the source of
    this page in dreamweaver, he was using something different. div
    tags? should I be using these? who do I use them? are there any
    general layout tips that someone could pass on to me? perhaps a
    link to a good tutorial?
    please help me. i am very confused.
    thanks so much.

    IMO not a good site to emulate. To wit:
    Top background image:
    http://www.jeffsarmiento.com/images/bg-top.jpg;
    745px
    x 350px 137K
    Main background image:
    http://www.jeffsarmiento.com/images/bg-tile.jpg;
    745px x 950px 130K
    Total page size: 454K (Check here:
    www.websiteoptimization.com)
    Website usability experts routinely recommend a maximum page
    size of ~80K
    Check out the We We Scale @ www.FutureNowInc.com/wewe/ where
    they suggest,
    "You speak about yourself approximately 0,003 times as often
    as you speak
    about your customers. Might that have an impact on your
    effectiveness?"
    That is 100% consistent with the #1 Web Design mistake:
    "Believing people
    care about you and your web site." or to phrase more
    expansively, "Our site
    tries to tell you how wonderful we are as a company, but not
    how we're going
    to solve your problems."
    www.sitepoint.com has some excellent books on making a
    website actually
    attractive and usable at the same time.

  • Help with transferring contacts and messages

    Hi there - I would be grateful if someone could help me . I need to transfer my contacts and messages from my iPhone 4 to iPhone 5…
    Is there an easy way of doing this
    Manu thanks

    Do you have a old backup of your device data? Or is there any way to power up your device and have a backup of your device data? If any of this is possible then you can get the data transferred to your new device.
