ICloud is ruining my life. I can't download items when I want to. How do I do this? I click the cloud but to no avail.

I Cloud is ruining my life. It won't allow me to download my purchases even after I press the cloud 100 times. I am so completely over Mac.

N97 has ruined my life...

...well nearly.
Had a problem where suddenly Mail for Exchange wouldn't sync contacts. The phone suggested contacting the administrator but other Exchange devices were working fine (blackberry, webmail, entourage). Eventually I backed up the phone (NPC Suite said it couldn't backup contacts and messages though) before resetting the N97. Afterwards it synced fine with Exchange with the small and devastating minor error of deleting every contact (over 1200) from my Exchange server.
How on earth could this happen? Any suggestions what I can do?

Hi, sad problem, but how did it happend? did you set Mail for Exchange settings to - "phone wins" in (in case of conflict) and "delete items on phone" in the (sync contacts)??
Don't imagine how on earth did it happened.. can you please provide more details?
If you are syncing your phone with a exchange server - try to contact your IT team, they should have backups of your data. I would get a box of beer and go talk to them =)
One question, I am looking forward to buy such a phone, I'm a MFE user myself. I know that provios Nokia N series devices accepted only a 5 digit lock code and our corporate standart (pushed by exchange) is a 6 digit code, can someone of the owners of this device try to set up a lock code of 6 digits and post the result somewhere on the board? appreciate it!

Icloud ruined my life

I'm sure it was user error somewhere down the line, but i have a terrible situation and i just dont know how to rectify it.
I have an Iphone 4 and a recently acquired ipad2. I sync these with my pc via itunes using usb. everything has been great until i decided to try and use icloud so that i could sync my calendar between all threee devices.
the main problem i am facing is with my outlook 2010 which i use for businesds use . basically i ended up with lots of duplicated items. i have over 2000 contacts in there and it also doubled up on the tasks for each contact. i deleted icloud from each of my devices as i just didnt get a very good feeling from it at all.
Then my outlook ended up with duplicated tasks. It was really messy so i though i know i'll sync with my iphone so it bbrings it back to normal.
Now my outlook is much tidier but each contact is missing hte telephone number.
Here is the problem :
Outlook database is now missing recent activity like notes and tasks as well as phone numbers
Iphone database is same as outlook i.e. missing pohone numbers
ipad has phone numbers
How can i sync all 3 so they arecomplete records as they were before i used icolud. i dont have a backup of my pc

To be honest dude, I'd give up on it. Three times over, iCloud has shagged my machine.
Initially it buggered up my address book, which resulted in missing data and two days of h*ll trying to put it right. I gave up then but thought I would try again a few months down the line. Same thing happened, grrrrr! I swore I would never use it again and moved on.
I tried again, stooooopidly, the other night, to see if things had improved. At first everything "just worked" but within 24 hours, my calender was buggered, locked in on Birthdays, and no way of getting back my inital calender. Furthermore, even when I discontinued the iCloud service, it was syncing back and forth.
My advice; ditch it if you haven't already, it really is a bag of sh*te!
Stick to good ole iTunes and a USB sync. Safer, quicker and overall less hassle.
Best of luck.

What is apple doing to fix the bugs from IOS 7.1.2 update? this update has ruined my phone

What is Apple doing to fix the bugs from IOS 7.1.2 update??? This update has ruined my phone! Why would you put out a update you know is going to ruin someones phone? Whats being done? I have tried everything to fix my phone which was just fine before Apples IOS 7.1.2 update!!!

I have also experienced issues with my iphone5 since updating to ios 7.1.2, prior to this update my phone was working perfectly fine and I know I didnt cause any damage to the phone because I baby my iphone as if it was my child. Ever since I updated to 7.1.2 my phone shutts itself down while I am using it, it can be while using whatsapp, browsing the internet or using apps, more than anything it fails while using the internet. The screen will either start to flicker or vertical lines will pop up and then the phone will fade to black, after this happens the phone will get really hot and to turn it back on I have to wait 5-10 minutes and hold down the power and home keys at the same time for about 15 seconds for it to turn back on, I have to wait 5-10 minutes because if I dont when I boot it back up it immediately shutts down again. This is a constant all day thing and for now i get by just making phone calls and sending regular text but I try to keep the action down to a minimum to prevent missing a phone call. I tried clearing the phone and rebooting it to original setting but this didnt fix it. After reading and speaking with several techs they tell me that ios 7.1.2 rolled out some performance adjustments one particular that affects the amp levels that the battery works at and supposedly the iphone 5 cant handle it, they explained that the phone for certain activities is asking for more or less power and the phone panics into safe mode and shutts itself down. My battery life is fine so I havent changed the battery like someone had suggested. In the diagnostic data it gives a panic.ips error. Id really like to know if there is any possible way to roll back to 7.1.1 through jailbreak or any other way, I was perfectly happy with this phone and didnt plan on buying another one for atleast 1-2 more years. If anyone can help me out this would be greatly appreciated, if not I hope apple is working to fix this.

Sorry to hear about your collections mishap, just keep in mind this is a peer to peer forum for customers and you likely will not receive the help you are looking for from Verizon.
Now you say that the account went to collections and you have paid it. So at this point I am not sure what you can negotiate anymore. I've read that if you have something in collections and tell the collecting company that you will pay them if they remove the negative mark from your credit, they will negotiate it with you.
In this situation, if things are as you say and you did not receive the final bill at the correct address, then you may have an argument to take to the credit bureaus. I would file a report with the credit bureaus and see where that takes me, also once your account goes to collections to my knowledge it doesn't have anything to do with Verizon anymore. The debt is between you and the collections company. I would try to contact them and see if you can somehow negotiate having the collection removed from your credit report seeing as the debt has been settled and the bill was never sent to your correct address.
I haven't really ever dealt with an account in collections, so this is just some helpful information I have thought of, if anything is not accurate in how you can deal with this, I apologize.

My icloud has a different email and it wants me to sign in to my account but i don't have an account with that address how do I get icloud to take the right address

My Icloud keeps asking me for my apple ID password my problem is that the user name icloud has on the request isn't my apple ID name its another email address that i have
I need to figure out how to change the ID name on the icloud so I can enter my corect password

Your iCloud account is tied to your Apple ID account - if you go into System Preferences>iCloud>Account Details, you'll see the associated email address. If you need to change your iCloud prefs, change your Apple ID - http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/.
Good luck,

ICloud has my old Apple ID and is prompting for a password, but I want to put in the new id, I can't because it is grey and there is no edit option. I'm prompted for a password to an account that doesn't exist

iCloud has my old Apple ID and is prompting for a password, but I want to put in the new id, I can't because it is grey and there is no edit option. I'm prompted for a password to an account that doesn't exist. Anyone know what I can do to fix this or why this is happening.? I had no issue putting in my new Apple ID everywhere else, I could sign out of the old and inactive account and then sign back in using my new and proper one. However, after the update to 7.3 it did a whole welcome to yr iPad and a set up thing and it went to set up iCloud and had my old Apple ID in grey where I can't change or edit it, it wants the password, when I put in the old password, it say yr Apple ID is incorrect but yet it won't let me change it??????? Anyone???

Sign out and back into your apple id from Settings>iTunes and App stores>(Your apple ID)>Sign Out and then sign in again with the new address. Close app store from running in the background (or restart the phone if your unsure how to do this). If when trying to update any apps they are still asking for the old apple ID, delete and re-install those apps.

Now that iCloud has done away with galleries, how can we share as I did with MobileMe? How can we sync non-Apple email accounts across multiple computers?

Now that iCloud has done away with galleries, how can we share as I did with MobileMe? How can we sync non-Apple email accounts across multiple computers?

You will need to find a third party solution for online storage in order to share things like photos with others. Some popular solutions to this are dropbox and sugarsync.
You cannot sync non-iCloud email accounts across your iOS devices and computers unless they are IMAP accounts like iCloud. If they are IMAP accounts, you will do it in the same way as you have always done.

In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.

In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

I have attempted to upgrade os4 to os7. icloud has taken an old expiered email address for which i do not know the password. It will not recognise my current email and password with itunes. Any help appreciated

I have attempted to upgrade os4 to os7. At the end, it threw an error that i had to turn off "Find my iphone" on my phone, which seems to be impossible at that stage as i could not access beyond the upgrade screen.
I thin chose to set up as new iphone, but icloud has taken an old expired email address for which i do not know the password. icloud will not recognise my current itunes email and password, so i now have os7 but am unable to restore from my itunes back up.
Desperately need help please... Any help appreciated
Thankyou

If you don't know your password, don't know your security questions and don't have a rescue address or don't receive a reset email, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support.

I have a 3G iphone4, iOS 5.1.1. I changed my apple ID and since then iCloud has constantly helpfully let me know that my user name or password is incorrect. I have edited my password in my iCloud account settings, but it won't allow editing my user name

Recently changed my apple ID. On my 3G iPhone 4 iCloud has since then been letting me know that my user name or password is incorrect. I can edit the password in iCloud account information but user name is grayed out and can't be changed to my new apple ID. Haven't been be able to fix this by going into my Apple ID account or synching the iPhone.

How do I control my airport extremes/time capsules w/airport utility over the internet without mobile me? iCloud has disabled this function.

How do I use airport utillity with Time Capsule(or any airport extreme) over the internet without mobile me? iCloud has disabled this function. The mac's that I have not upgraded to icloud still see my routers over the internet with mobile me enabled. Are these routers obsolete now or will there be a firmware update to use icloud?

i want to do the same. i tried entering my @me.com account and does not work, but if I tried to go to icloud.com and using my @me.com works
why?
does the Airport express needs to be upgraded as well

I don't have a working time machine and icloud has caused the relevant folders to disappear from all my machines, iPhone, iPad and iMac as well as thge MacBook Air I was working on. HELP!!!

Hi,
There is NO need to put your whole questing in the "Questing Heather" therefore you can TYPE here. In the Text window as I did to.
Now to your questing:
So, you moved some Bookmarks and now 2 folders are completely empty.
I think that they dropped in a other folder during dragging the Bookmarks.
Did you check ALL of you Bookmark folder if they are there?
If you didn't delete the they have to be still there.

HT1766 I Pad says icloud has not been backed up.... but I cant unlock it to do that

My Mini Ipad says Icloud has not been backed up for two weeks, It then displays OK on the bottom of message but nothing happens also it says slide to open at the bottom and I can't open it now.

A reset should help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off buttons for approximately 10-15 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons.
No content is affected by this procedure.

Plz! Icloud has ruined my life:((
