Sign in to icloud... but it is not showing the correct email. It works on my computer but not on the phone

Its is showing the wrong email... I can sign in on my computer but not the phone

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If it isn't showing up at all, it means that Find My Phone hasn't been activated.
If it's just the location that isn't showing up, it may well mean it isn't connected to a network at this time.

  • Im having problems with contacts on my iPad. One of my contacts names shows up when I choose any one of 36 contacts. the email goes to the correct email address that I've chosen but the incorrect name shows up in the To: area of the email

    I'm having problems with contacts on my iPad. One of my contacts names shows up when I choose any one of 36 contacts. the email goes to the correct email address that I've chosen but the incorrect name shows up in the To: area of the email. Has anyone else experienced this...if so I hope there is a fix

    Hello there erika274,
    It sounds like no matter what contact you put into the 'To' field, a different name appears, but the email makes it to the intended recipient. I would recommend a few things here. First, close all the open apps on the device:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    When you have done that restart the phone:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the issue persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes, and restore it:

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • HT201302 pictures not showing in windows explorer on my windows 7 computer, but they do show on another computer with vista

    My PC has windows 7 64-bit.  I can see my iphone in windows explorer, but I cannot see any folders underneath.  When I plug my iphone into a windows vista pc, I can see the iphone and the folders with pictures.  Does anyone else using windows 7 have this problem?

    Works perfectly fine for me on Windows 7, Vista, or XP.
    Are these pictures taken with the device?

  • The music I have purchased on my IPod are not showing up on my ITunes library on my computer

    The music I have purchased on my IPod is not showing up on my Itunes account on my computer, I went to the itunes store on my computer and went to see if I could download a song i previously purchased, but it was going to have me pay again. I have about a hundred songs missing on my computers itunes. It won't let me sync my ipod to it anymore and when I tried to update the software it wouldn't let me. I am completely at a standstill with this.

    Then you're doing something wrong.  Are you signed in with the same Apple ID on the computer that the content was purchased with?
    Did you check the purchase history?

  • After I updated to iOS 7, my iCloud account is showing the incorrect email address for my Apple ID but will not allow me to change it- it's gray and I can't click on it. How do I fix this?

    After I updated to iOS 7, my iCloud account is showing the incorrect email address for my Apple ID but will not allow me to change it- it's gray and I can't click on it. How do I fix this?

    If you change your email, you do not need to "change" your AppleID. Just edit your email(s) on your Apple ID by logging in to your AppleID account. You should always use the same AppleID for  Apple Services (iCloud, iTunes etc) and multiple ID will cause problems and confusion in the future.
    You can manage your Apple ID here:

  • I installed Mountain Lion so that I could sync my notes with my iPhone that already syncs notes with a specific email address I use for school, but during the install it automatically set up Notes to sync w the wrong email addy. How can I fix it?

    I installed Mountain Lion so that I could sync my notes with my iPhone that already syncs notes with a specific email address I use for school, but during the install it automatically set up Notes to sync w the wrong email addy. It looked in Mail, which had 5 email accounts set up in it, and for some reason picked the only one that I no longer use because it is for a school that I no longer attend. How can I fix it so that it syncs with the correct email account for notes and calendar? There don't seem to be any settings available other than to check if you want to use the basic features. It also said during the set up that it was setting up 'find my mac' but if I look on the iCloud website there is nothing showing there for finding my mac.
    At this point I feel like I wasted my money paying for this supposed upgrade. I got nothing for it but frustration. It even automatically set my security settings to allow only downloads from the Mac store so the first time I went to download something I had to stop what I was doing and go correct settings first. I feel like there should be a security setting to block downloads from the Mac store so I don't accidentally end up clicking the wrong thing and being charged.

    iCloud isn't syncing them on your phone.  You simply added the email account to your phone and enabled calendar and notes syncing with the email provider, and the calendar and notes appear in the calendar and notes apps on your phone.  You can do this with Gmail, Yahoo and other IMAP account.  iCloud email is just another IMAP account, but syncs notes with Apple's iCloud server just as Gmail syncs notes and calendars with Google's server.
    iCloud didnt' set up a non-iCloud account on your Mac.  When you check Mail in System Preferences>iCloud, it only creates an iCloud email account.  You can also add other email accounts to your Mac by going to System Preferences>Mail,Contacts,Calendars and clicking on the "+" sign on the bottom of the left sidebar.  If you added these other email accounts to your Mac before you upgraded to Mountain Lion, these were simply maintained on your Mac after you upgraded.

  • I receive a message to sign in to iCloud when replying to a message from another email account

    I receive a message to sign in to iCloud when replying to a message from another email account

    Does that happen all the time? I just got the same message when trying to open an email in one of my mail accounts and I don't even have iCloud mail, but I was in the process of setting up a brand new iPad Air 2 and I just assumed that it is a security feature that randomly popped up because it was a new device. I do think that I recall that occurring in the past though, and I assume it's simply a security feature.

    If they were synced to your phone, they can only be removed by syncing them off with iTunes.  Create an empty folder on the computer you normally sync your phone with.  Then connect your phone to your computer, open iTunes, click on the name of your phone in iTunes, go to the photos tab and select to sync the empty folder you created earler.  Then click Apply at the bottom to sync your phone.  This will remove any photos on your phone that were synced to it from a computer.

  • It works on my Computer, but not in my DVD Player

    I burned a DVD, It works on my Computer, but not in my DVD Player...why?

    still am trying to figure out how to burn at a slower speed, I see no optiond on iDVD.
    You need to create a disk image out of iDVD, then burn. See below.
    Suggest you create a disc image and then burn the DVD. File/Save as Disc Image...
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/6.0/en/18.html
    http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/image_to_diskstone.html
    This will isolate any encoding/burning issues you may encounter. Once the disc image is created, double-click the .img and burn the virtual disc that should appear on your desktop, using Toast to burn the DVD. Disk Utility to burn the .img file. Usually, you can select a burning speed in Disk Utility.
    There are variations to this process based on which OS X you are using...
    Open Disk Utility (in Utilities folder in Applications folder), click on the virtual disc (maybe the .img) in the left-hand window. Click the Burn icon. A new window should drop down and your SuperDrive tray will open after clicking the Burn icon. Insert a recordable DVD. (Verbatim DVD-R preferred by me.) Click the Close button. Wait. Select a burn speed. If you hold your mouse cursor over the pop-up it says: "Select a slower speed to work around burn failures," so select 4x or slower for best results. Then click the Burn button.
    -->If the virtual disk selection won't allow you to click the Burn icon, use the .img file instead. This may have changed in 10.3.9 and did change in Tiger.
    Also, you can use DVD Player to play the virtual disk to check your iDVD project before burning to DVD. Launch DVD Player. File/Open VIDEO_TS (Open DVD Media... in Player 4.6). Find the VIDEO_TS folder and open that. (The audio folder is for DVD-Audio disks.)
