Pictures and facebook accounts are showing in my contacts that are not mine. how do i delete them

In my contacts I am having random Facebook accounts and their facebook pictures added on my contacts. I do not know these people. Why did they show up and how do i remove them?

There might be a slight glitch in the Facebook program and the setting which you are using to link your contacts. To fix this, I reccomend reinstalling Facebook, or if you go in your contact which you do not want, is there not a button at the bottom saying 'Delete Contact'? If non of these options work, try a reset in iTunes.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    That's a problem that all users of a second-hand Mac released after the OS X Lion launch have. OS X, iPhoto, iMovie and GarageBand are registered to the Apple ID the first owner used to register the computer, so you can't use them legally without repurchasing them. Furthermore, there's a bigger problem: you have to get iPhoto, iMovie and GarageBand on a DVD, because the App Store makes impossible to purchase these applications on a second-hand Mac.
    Nothing will happen if they are already installed, but you won't be able to reinstall and update them, so I recommend you to delete them and buy iLife '11 on a DVD to install the applications from there. Also, take note that you can't also reinstall OS X, so if OS X gets damaged, you will have to take your computer to an Apple Store.
    Open  > About this Mac, and tell us the OS X version you have. If you are using OS X Lion, you can upgrade to Mountain Lion with your Apple ID, so then you will be able to reinstall OS X

  • I purchased refurbished and it has a apple id that is not mine, how do I change to my account

    I purchased a refurbished ipod touch for my son, it looks great and is working however, when trying to go to app store, the device still has a apple ID that is not mine. HOw can I delete this and add to my account. My son had a touch and it got wet and ruined. We were hoping to download from itunes that we already have downloaded

    You should be able to do it through Itunes.

  • Calendar events are showing up two days early on my iPhone, how do I make them show up on the right day?

    Notifications are showing in my notification centre that birthdays are 1 day before they actually occur. Is this a general fault or can it be fixed?
    Also, the birthdays have been entered as part of the contact information, if this has any bearing on the answer.

    Depends on your setting.  Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...scroll down to the Calendars section, tap Default Alert Times>Birthdays, set as desired.

  • I have an Ipad 2 and have about 20 apps that will not update, How can I delete these?

    I have some apps that will not update on my IPad 2.  They say they are installing, but Installing is grey..not black, and they have been like this for several weeks.  I cannot find out how to finish the updates or delete them.  Can someone suggest a solution?  Thanks, Ann

    You can only delete them one at a time on the iPad. If you have an IMAP email account, go to your email in on the server using a web browser and select as many as you can at a time and delete them that way. That action will be reflected on the iPad. In IMAP - whatever you do on one device syncs across all devices. If you have POP email - start deleting one at a time.

  • Apps shows two updates I do not want, how do I delete them?

    Being a new iPhone user I am somewhat confused about how to use my phone. My problem is that The App Store on my phone shows two updates available, iTunes on my laptop also shows those updates. I do not what them and would like to delete them but am unsure how to do so.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Okay I maybe a little green when it comes to using this new phone but the one app will not download even when connected to wifi. I was in town yesterday near free wifi so I thought I would let the updates download, well one did and while the other was in the process a message came up part way through saying it could not complete. I exited the App Store and the updates notification was gone but today it came back wanting to update the previously failed download. The update is for Deer Hunter Reloaded and is over 500MB, I originally got the app at someone's suggestion.

  • Folder shows up in iTunes that's not mine

    I opened iTunes today and found a new folder, "mccabe's LimeWire Tunes" containing a couple of songs - but I didn't create it and I can't delete it. HELP!

    You are seeing the shared playlist of somebody on your local network.
    If you don't want to see it go to Preferences, click on the Sharing tab, and uncheck "Look for shared music".

  • How can I delete suggested contacts that are not in my contact list?

    I inadvertently sent an email "reply all.". Now all 50 people show up when I get suggested recipients.  How can I delete them?

    Unfortunately, there is no way to delete those contacts in the current iOS - at least as far as I know. You just have to ignore them and eventually they will at least go to the bottom of the suggestion list that pops up in mail.

  • I have pictures on my phone that I can not delete.  There is no trashcan.  These pictures are in albums and not the camera roll itself.  How can I delete them?

    My wife and I decided that we needed separate accounts for our two 4s phones.  To do this, the data from her phone needed to be transferred out, then transferred back in under the different account.  The pictures were transferred back in using Itunes.  These appear as separate albums in the "photos" app.  I would like to delete some (or all) the pictures in these extra albums, but there is no trashcan to put them in.  I can only delete pictures in the "camera roll" itself.  These pictures are taking up valuable memory and I would like to free up some space.  How can I delete them?

    You're welcome. 
    As it relates to pictures, iTunes will only do two things: it will transfer photos from your computer to your device (if you select to Sync Photos on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings); and it will include the camera roll photos on your device in your device backup (if you back up to your computer rather than to iCloud).  It does not transfer photos from your phone, only to your phone.  (Transferring photo from your phone to your computer is done by importing them as expained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.)
    The only area where you might lose pictures by syncing would be if you synced your phone while selecting Sync Photos on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings and the photos you had previously synced to your phone from your computer were no longer on your computer.  iTunes is syncing photos one-way; ensuring that the photos transferred from your computer match the photos still on your computer.  If you delete the photos from your computer, then sync, the deleted photos are then removed from your phone.
    This does not effect photos in the camera roll or in your photo stream, it only effects photos in the Photo Library album and albums containing photos in the Photo Library album.
    The deleted photos would have been placed in the recycle bin when you originally deleted them from the computer.  Nothing is put in the recycle bin when syncing with iTunes.

  • I have apps from old work account that I can't remember the password to. On my personal phone those apps keep showing up but I can't update them because I can't remember the password. How can I delete them and download on my new account?

    Tap and hold an app until they all start jiggling and an X appears in the icon's top left corner. One by one tap the X to delete the app. when they are all gone you are free to buy them again with your own account.

  • Why does my Yahoo and Facebook account keep resetting in the 2nd profile I created?

    I have 2 profiles, one for my wife and one for me. When either of us in on profile 2, our Yahoo and Facebook accounts keep logging us out. I was just on Facebook writing a response to a friend and I get a "Your not logged in" message pop up and it logs me out. SO I go to my Yahoo account tab and it's telling me to "Sign in" after I was already signed in. This doesn't happen on profile 1. Have had this set up for years. It just started doing this recently (the few weeks). How can I fix this.

    You can only log in to one profile at the time in a specific Firefox session.<br />
    It doesn't help to open another window because you are still in the same session and use the same cookies from the first account you logged on to.
    If this does happen with a second Firefox profile then you may have to check the connection settings used in that profile.
    *Tools > Options > Advanced : Network : Connection > Settings
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Options+window+-+Advanced+panel
    If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then try to select "No Proxy" if the "Use the system proxy settings" setting or one of the others doesn't work properly.

  • HT204150 I currently have 14,181 contacts that are on my computer, which an apple tech was nice enough to show me how to transfer all my contacts  from my mac 2 "iCloud " account all though when ever I log into my "iCloud" account it still only shows 13,0

    I currently have 14,181 contacts that are on my computer, which an apple tech was nice enough to show me how to transfer all my contacts  from my mac 2 "iCloud " account all though when ever I log into my "iCloud" account from a different web browser it still only shows 13,032. Meanwhile on my mac book pro, the "icloud" contact is still spinning like its trying to update the rest of the missing contacts. I have let the computer run for 2 days straight and still no progress. Is there a limit to how many contacts I store on "iCloud" I have upgraded to the extra 25 gigs per year. If anyone has any advice I would greatly appreciate it, because its also slowing down my mac book pro significantly causing it hard to do any other task on my computer....Any advice or help would be again greatly appreciated.

    On the surface, it doesn't sound like you're reaching a limit in the number of contacts you can have.
    I would first create a contacts archive (file >> export) for a backup.  Then, go to system preferences >> icloud and uncheck contacts.  Reboot.  Return to those preferences and recheck contacts.
    Also, review http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4489 just in case you have some contact cards that are reaching a different limitation.
