NOTES are all stranded on my iPad
I wish to transfer my 1500 Notes from my iPad to MacBook. I have been backing up to iCloud for at least a year, maybe 18 months (my notes actually date back 4 years) but only 2 months of notes appear on my iCloud account. And even then, individual notes are randomly missing, so that from a given day, only a proportion of the notes on my iPad show up on my iCloud.
How can I transfer all my notes to my Macbook? Given that my iPad is old (MB293B) and I cannot install ios 7 (I am on 5.1.1) I am unable to use Evernote as a file transfer device, since it needs to be on my iPad as well as on my Macbook. Perhaps there is another way, short of emailing to myself every note laboriously one by one?
Also I cannot see how to download the few Notes I can see in my i-cloud account to my Macbook, which I should like to do. Nor does the Help section [denoted by a ?] open up.
My iPad is an early model (MB293B, ios 5.1.1) so that means I cannot, for example, transfer them to my Macbook via Evernote. Evernote needs ios 7 which my iPad cannot run.
In case this is of relevance, my iPad capacity is supposedly 28.5 GB with 3.9 GB available. My iPad tells me that I have used 0.2 GB only of my allowance of 5.0 GB.
I do hope you can help, and that you can respond in very simple clear English that omits no steps! All best wishes, James F
Try asking Siri or try using Spotlight Search to open Notes

The App store, FaceTime, iTunes, Safari and Camera are all missing from my iPad. Restrictions are not enabled and when they are those applications are grayed out. I have tried everything but restoring my iPad to its orginal condition. What do I do?

If you try all these steps and you still have issues...
Then a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step...

How can I set up my contacts so that I do not see all of them on ipad from iCloud?
How can I set up my contacts so that I do not see all of them on ipad from iCloud? I don't need/want to view contact info for casual contacts on the ipad. (I.e. contacts entered so that I can identify a caller for ID/screening purposes)
Also would like to limit email contacts from yahoo- no need to view emails for every "safe list" address.
Thanks!Keyboard shortcut for FullScreen is command + control + F

How can I be sure my notes are backed up from my IPAD?
I have set my ipad to automatically back up all my apps to the icloud. While I can view the saved content of other apps (calendar, contacts) at www.icloud.com, There is no content online that reflects the notes files that exist on my IPAD. Are they being backed up? thank you!
In a browser (and unfortunately Safari on iOS - your iPad won't work) go to www.icloud.com and login in using your appleID. You should see an icon for Notes (yellow pad like you have on the iPad). Click on that and any notes you have on the iPad should appear there.
When you are in Notes on the iPad creating a note, tap the Account button (upper left) and select iCloud to store the note in iCloud (if you are using additional account, such as Gmail, it will show up as well). A note, for syncing purposes, can only be synched to one account. If youare in the All Notes view adn create a note, it should store it in whichever youhave selected as the default (Settings app > Notes > Default Account). Sounds like Comcast, in your case.
For backup purposes, you should be set, I think, already.

I was trying to help my aunt set up her phone to itunes on my computer but when it asked me whether I wanted to set it as new device or use the backup from previous iphone data, I clicked restore from backup. I didn't realize that clicking that option would delete all of her information on the phone and relace it with mine. Her contacts, phones, notes, and all of her information are gone and replaced with mine just like my phone. Is there any way I can restore her phone because she really needs all those information orignally stored on her phone? She just got her phone not long ago and didn't backed up any of her information on her phone.
If her data was not backed up or synced to something, it's gone. Sorry.

I changed my Apple ID and had problems with my Account.Once iTunes Store had sorted those out I decided to back up on my 3 devices.Now my Notes and Reminders are all old ones and the new ones I created in the last few days have disappeared.
Ok. Found something that said to shut down and hold the option, command, p, and r keys on restart. Held them down for a few restarts and everything automatically signed in and works. Woohoo!!!

I had a music library of purchased Itunes on my Windows 7 computer. I had to reinstall the operating system and I have installed Itunes again. My library is gone but it is on my new IPad 2 which I am not sure how it got there, but I do not know how to get it back on my computer where I would like to use it with other programs or to burn discs. What did i do wrong or how do I do this?? Someone, please HELP.
Thank you, I do not know if I have a IPad to computer cable to connect, I have looked and cannot find one but will keep checking. This must be the answer. Thanks so much.

AIR for iOS app works perfectly in emulator, not at all on an actual iPad
I'm new to mobile development, so I'm hoping I am doing some simple wrong, like a wrong checked box or something.
I have an app that I have written for iPad. It's fully functioning when I run it through the emulator (I have to change it to Flash 10.1 and use Device Emulator because nothing else will accept touch events) but doesn't really work on the iPad. Some of the features work, and some don't. It's like it's just not quite compiling all the code, and I'm very confused.
My publish settings:
Player: AIR for iOS
Script: Actionscript 3.0
Included .swf, .xml, and all relevant .as class files
Published using quick publish for device testing
Are there some AS 3.0 features that won't work in iOS? If so it would be really great to have a list of those somewhere.
What am I doing wrong? Why won't my app work on an actual device if it tests perfectly in the emulator?My original question has not been answered, but I am running across the same problem in a different way.
I have added to my code, continuing to build the app, (hoping the problem can be solved eventually), and once again, the app works perfectly in Device Central but not on the iPad.
I have buttons to select different levels of the puzzle. Each time you press a button, the level automatically updates itself on the board. So if you are playing the shape level, the shape of the puzzle piece is on the board. If you are playing the name level, the name of the puzzle piece is on the board. Etc.
This works perfectly on my computer. However - again - when I transfer it to an iPad, choosing the "shape" level will cause the names to pop up.
I have double and triple checked the variable names to make sure they match up and are correctly spelled and capitalized. It just doesn't function in iOS.
Here is the code to switch levels and automatically generate a new random puzzle piece:
function changeLevel (e:TouchEvent): void {
trackUSAPiece = ["pieceAL", "pieceAK", "pieceAZ", "pieceAR", "pieceCA", "pieceCO", "pieceCT", "pieceDE", "pieceFL", "pieceGA", "pieceHI", "pieceID", "pieceIL", "pieceIN", "pieceIA", "pieceKS", "pieceKY", "pieceLA", "pieceME", "pieceMD", "pieceMA", "pieceMI", "pieceMN", "pieceMS", "pieceMO", "pieceMT", "pieceNE", "pieceNV", "pieceNH", "pieceNJ", "pieceNM", "pieceNY", "pieceNC", "pieceND", "pieceOH", "pieceOK", "pieceOR", "piecePA", "pieceRI", "pieceSC", "pieceSD", "pieceTN", "pieceTX", "pieceUT", "pieceVT", "pieceVA", "pieceWA", "pieceWV", "pieceWI", "pieceWY"]
if (e.target == nameLevel) {
PuzzleGlobals.currentLevel = "Name";
nameLevel.gotoAndStop("Active");
abbrevLevel.gotoAndStop("Inactive");
shapeLevel.gotoAndStop("Inactive");
for (var j=0; j<(PuzzleGlobals.TOTAL_NUMBER_USA); j++) {
this[trackUSAPiece[j]].gotoAndStop("wholeName");
else if (e.target == abbrevLevel) {
PuzzleGlobals.currentLevel = "Abbrev";
abbrevLevel.gotoAndStop("Active");
nameLevel.gotoAndStop("Inactive");
shapeLevel.gotoAndStop("Inactive");
for (var k=0; k<(PuzzleGlobals.TOTAL_NUMBER_USA); k++) {
this[trackUSAPiece[k]].gotoAndStop("abbrev");
else if (e.target == shapeLevel) {
PuzzleGlobals.currentLevel = "Shape";
shapeLevel.gotoAndStop("Active");
nameLevel.gotoAndStop("Inactive");
abbrevLevel.gotoAndStop("Inactive");
for (var l=0; l<(PuzzleGlobals.TOTAL_NUMBER_USA); l++) {
this[trackUSAPiece[l]].gotoAndStop("shape");
function addNewPiece (e:TouchEvent): void {
ri = Math.floor(Math.random()*(1+PuzzleGlobals.TOTAL_NUMBER_USA));
if (PuzzleGlobals.statesOnBoardUSA == PuzzleGlobals.TOTAL_NUMBER_USA) {
//play BOOP sound indicating no new pieces left
else {
if (usaPiece[ri] != null) {
bmc.addChild(this[usaPiece[ri]]);
if (PuzzleGlobals.currentLevel == "Shape") {
this[usaPiece[ri]].height = this[usaPuzzle[ri]].height;
this[usaPiece[ri]].width = this[usaPuzzle[ri]].width;
this[usaPiece[ri]].x = e.stageX;
this[usaPiece[ri]].y = e.stageY;
usaPiece[ri] = null;
PuzzleGlobals.statesOnBoardUSA++;
else {
addNewPiece(e);
Here is the code that creates the piece:
public function GeoPiece(): void {
if (PuzzleGlobals.currentLevel == "Name") {
this.gotoAndStop("wholeName");
else if (PuzzleGlobals.currentLevel == "Abbrev") {
this.gotoAndStop("abbrev");
else if (PuzzleGlobals.currentLevel == "Shape") {
this.gotoAndStop("shape");
this.addEventListener(TouchEvent.TOUCH_BEGIN, geoPieceBegin);
Is it possible I have a bad compiler or something? Do I need to reinstall the entire program? I just can't figure out why it would work in one operating system and not in another.
Thanks

Webpage not loading all images for my iPad Air 2
When I visit the following page from my iPad Air 2.
http://hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.com
some of the images won't load completely and end up looking like corrupted jpg's. If I reastart my iPad, different images fail to load. Anyone have anything they've tried to resolve this?I'll try that. Another weird thing, if I click on the image, it displays as expected, just the image in-line in the webpage looks like it's been corrupted. I'm wondering if it's my iPad... Just got everything set up like I want, didn't want to have to go through that again
UPDATE: It did take longer to load this time, which indicated it was pulling from the source at least, but, again, a different set of images are corrupted. I'll have to back up my current settings this afternoon and take a trip to the Apple Store. -
OMG Help notes are all gone from outlook and i phone I can't get them back
I havent synced my iphone in a long time. I used to have an itouch (gave it to my son) and everytime I synced it on itunes it was replacing what was on my itouch in outlook onto my iphone getting rid of the recent stuff it was a mess. I have had some stuff going on and i thought i should sync now since imp stuff going on. well I deleted what was in outlook hoping to just put what was on my iphone into outlook but it deleted everything i had in it on both phone and outlook except for what was actually added on phone not even the stuff I have typed in from older messages to update like all my blood pressures recently it is all gone, I am ready to freak out is there anyway to undo a sync or a delete and put it back on my phone, help please
You could just restore your Outlook PST file from the latest backup of your computer. This will not bring back what was on your phone.
This is what sync does. If you delete i in one place, it will delete it all the way down the line. If it were to bring it back from the phone after you told it you didn't want it anymore in outlook, what would be the point? -

My iPhone, iPad and iPod are all associated with the same Apple ID. How can I remove the iPod and associate it with a new Apple ID without affecting the data on the other devices (note: there is no data on the iPod I want to keep)?
Very simple. Turn off Find my iDevice, then Tap Settings, General, Erase, Erase all content and settings.

My iPad, Macbook and Apple TV are all set up with the same iCloud email address. I bought the iPhone 6 and accidentally set the iCloud up with a different email. My phone will not let me change the email address to be the same as my other devices, it tells me that email is already being used. How do I delete the iPhones iCloud account and reinstall it to match my other devices.
Yes it will, just sign out, then sign back in with the correct address.
Settings>iCloud>Sign Out. -
my iPhone 5 has someone in Contacts that is not on my iPad or Mac even though they are all connected to my iCloud account how can I re-sycronise them?
Hello Mr Potatohead,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iCloud Contacts. I recommend reviewing the sections titled "General troubleshooting," "Troubleshooting with iOS devices," and "Troubleshooting iCloud Contacts in Contacts on OS X Mountain Lion or later (or Address Book on OS X Lion)" in the following article for the issue you described:
iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Contacts

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

why are most of the apps (anything that has to search) on my iphone4 and ipad (1) running very slow (or not at all) since iOS5 update...esp google. Search seems to go quickly, but then when I try to open a link..nothing. I have turned off icloud.
I am having the same problem. Did turning off iCloud work? Did you just turn everything off or did you actually delete the account off your iPod?
