Siri is saying a different name instead of mine.

anyone know how to fix siri? it is saying one of my contacts name instead of mine

If this helps there are problems with Siri in general. My voice to text is not working. I called Apple who said it was a problem with Siri and they are working on an update. they were rude when I called and could not give me a time when the problem will be fixed. I just cant figure out why we paid extra for this service if it isnt working properly.

I think in the iOS 7.1 it's will be very nice if you will make system in iPhone 5s that when you open the iPhone with your finger Siri will say welcome back [name you can choose] it's will be very nice.

In the options before you click on add finger you will be able to choose your name
And if you don't want it so you will click on i don't want it
and it won't say your name

How do I get Find My Friends to say my friends names instead of email as it did before the new iOS?

Go to Settings > Privacy > Contacts and change the setting for "Find Friends" to "ON". That should also allow Find Friends to now access your contacts and dispaly names and photos.

When text editing, the tracker has another person's name instead of mine. How to I correct that?

When text editing, the tracker has different person's name instead of mine. How to I correct that? I'm using iMac Intel Core i3, 3.06 GHz, 4G 1333 MH2 DDR3

Does this problem happen EVERY time you send an email?
Do you see the wrong FROM entry before you hit the send button? Or does the recipient report seeing another name other than yours?
Do you recognize the incorrect name being shown? Is it something you or someone else using your machine have ever used? Is it a name you have never heard of before?
Go to your SENT folder in Apple Mail. What do you see when you open one of your SENT emails, in the FROM slot? Is the name correct or incorrect?
Also, I don't understand your comment "I noticed it when I try to send a link via e-mail to another person." are you saying that when you paste a link into an email to someone that your name in the FROM field changes? Where are you putting the link, in what place in the email?

How do you set up an email folder with a different name on IPad mini with IOS7

On my computer I have serveral different folders to separate mail as it comes in. How do I do this on my IPad mini IOS 7? There seems to only a very limited number of folders I can use and cannot change their names. Is there a way to separate my incoming mail on my mini IPad as I do on my IMAC?

You can only create folders in the mail app on the iPad if you have an IMAP email account. If your email account was an IMAP account, those folders would have already synced to the iPad. If they are not already on the iPad, your account isn't IMAP and you can't create folders.
The folders that you created on the iMac are for local storage and organization only. The Mac Mail App allows you to do that. There is no such feature for the mail app on the iPad.
Just to be sure and as a double check ..... If you go to your email account in the Mail app and look at the window where your inbox, trash folder and sent folder are - if there is an Edit button at the top of the window - tap that and then tap Add Mailbox at the bottom.
If the Edit button is not there - you cannot create folders on the iPad. Your email account is not IMAP. Only IMAP email accounts can create folders on the iPad. Any folders that you would already have in an IMAP account would sync to the device as well.

My outgoing mail on my .me account is sent with my husband's name instead of mine.

My outgoing mail on my IMAC is showing my husband's name on my @me.com mailbox. How do I change it?

Change the contact card (in Contacts) so that your card is marked as the 'Me' card.
If you're sharing the same iMac and the same user account one of the two of you will always be wrong, are you?

My I phone was set up by a friend and she put her name instead of mine and now I can not access any downloads as she has the password...how can I get my own phone in my name now...thank you in advance!

My iPhone was set up by a friend and she put her email address in and I do not have her password and can not get into my phone to download anything now...what can I do ? Thanks in advance

As explained here, have your friend turn off Find My iPhone (iPad).

Hand her the iPad so she can do that.
Then do Settings > General > Reset > Erase all content and settings and start over with a brand new iPad (as if it just came out of the box).

When using iChat, what could be causing the person I am chatting with to see my daughter's name instead of my name?

I had a regular chat buddy tell me that I was showing up in his chat window as Rosie (Last Name) instead of Michael (Last Name). I had noticed once or twice before when I had gone to Apple support to sign up for an Express Support call (where they call you at an appointed time) that it had Rosie's name instead of mine. I thought that maybe my daughter had called in for technical support or something.
But after my chat buddy said he saw it on his chat window, I logged into the Manage your Apple ID site and sure enough it had the wrong first name assoicated with this Apple ID! So, I edited that back from my daughter's name to mine and submitted that change.
Well, that chat buddy is still seeing me as Rosie, even though it all looks correct now at the manage Apple ID site.
I'm not sure what to do. My daughter has her own Apple ID which is part of our MobileMe family plan. So, I guess in that sense there is some linkage between hers and mine. But that shouldn't create a problem should it? It's a unique username. I think they're only connected in a billing sense. And they soon won't be in iCloud.
Can anybody tell me why this is happening?

Hi,
What I meant by "First Name" is the one at the top of the list as it were when the Family account was set up.
(All the other sub-accounts tend to be regarded as Aliases)
As @me.com names can now be linked to iCloud IDs it may pay to look at separating the account out into different IDs in their own right.

(1) The OP is technically correct - there is no direct equivalent of "save as". There is "save a version" and there is "duplicate".
(2) So far it seems that to get the same effect as "save as" you need to create a "duplicate", then save the duplicate. The duplicate will automatically be given a name like "docname.copy.pages", which can be changed to that desired.
(1) nobody wrote about the technical aspect of the OP's question !
But, you wrote something wrong.
There is a "Duplicate" item, a "Save a Version" item and there is a "Save…" item.
(2) The reproduced help page clearly state that the first step is to trigger 'Duplicate' For the second step, it's not clear. It seems that the ones writing the Help were not informed of the definite choices made by the developers. They wrote "Save As" but never was such an item. It was "Save As…" in which the ellipsis is an important component. At last, the developers defined two items : "Save…" and "Save a Version" ( at this time I'm running 10.6.8 so I can't check if this item has or hasn't an ellipsis).

You are only as young as you feel......
This is an example of how you can select the exact content that you want to sync to your device. You do not have to sync the entire iTunes library. You can pick and choose the music, apps, books and so on that you want to sync. This is using music as an example.
Connect the iPad to the PC and launch iTunes.
Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
Click on the Music Tab on the right.
Click on only the albums or playlists that you want to sync.
Click on the Sync Music Heading.
Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes
You can do this with apps, books, movies .... Whatever .... You have the freedom to sync whatever you want.
