So if iMessages deleted from one device are not deleted from others why not recover deleted iMessages from iCloud?

I accidentally deleted ALL the messages from my wife from my iPhone, nearly all of them iMessages. Yet, I can see all of them on my iMac and on my MacPro. Indeed, there is a discussion item (https://discussions.apple.com/message/21313040#21313040) that confirms that messages are deleted and maintained independently on each device, even though they are all ultimately resident only in Apple's cloud.
I would dearly love to have all of them back on my iPhone. Yet, reading about 20 or so discussions here, the only way to recover them would be a recovery from my iTunes backup. I have a somewhat recent backup, but I'll still lose about 100 messages that way.
So, if all the messages are still in the cloud, why CAN'T I recover them directly from the cloud to my iPhone? Any ideas? Any software? Is this an App just begging to be built??
Thanks

It depends on the type of email account you are using, not on iCloud. If you are using an IMAP or exchange account, when you delete from one device, it is deleted from all devices. If you are using a POP (POP3) account, it won't. (iCloud email, Gmail and Yahoo are all IMAP accounts.)

Files I upload from one device are not visible on another device

I have multiple devices signed into the same Adobe account to share and upload files. I am having a problem with uploading files, and them not being visible on my other devices. I have tried deleting and re-uploading them, logging out and back in. Nothing has solved the problem and I need this program to work to share files for my business. Does anyone have a solution?

Hi cb45689,
Does it matter which devices you upload from? Or does the issue occur regardless of where you initiate the upload? And, which devices are you using (tablet, phone, laptop)?
If you're logging in via a browser, does it help to clear the browser cache and then log back in?
Best,
Sara

TS4036 My contact changes on one device are not automatically updating to my others. I have the iPhone 4, MacBook Pro & the latest iPad. All are running on iOS6 and use Safari. What am I missing?

Contacts are not syncing on my MacBookPro, iPhone4 & my iPad.

On iOS devices, go to Settings>icloud, be sure each is connected to the proper icloud account and that the Contacts on/off switch is turned ON. Check a similar things on the mac (system preferences).
Also, contacts are listed as being either in the "iCloud" group or the "On My Mac" (or iPad, iPhone). Anything in the "On My Mac" (or whatever device it is) does not sync via icloud, only contacts in "iCloud" sync.

How can I unsync email so deleting from one device will not remove it from all devices?

How do I unsync email so deleting from one device will not remove it from all devices?

Sounds like you have an IMAP/Exchange mail account (vice a POP3 account). By design, an IMPA/Exchange account synchronized your mail boxes among different devices. That behavior can't be changed.

I have been trying to remove all residual apple files from my computer in order to fully reinstall iTunes. My devices are not being recognized by iTunes currently. I keep finding an Apple file under C/: Program files/ common files/ ......Apple.. under that there is an Internet Services file folder.. I am the administrator and yet it says I need permission to remove these files.
Please advise.

What Happens to Me after 6/30/12? My devices are not supported!!!

What Happens to Me after 6/30/12? Do I get to keep my @me.com address from MobileMe because My Mac, PC nor iOS device is supported by iCloud
On 6/30/12 All ACTIVE MobileMe accounts that havn't MOVED to iCloud will be deleted as MobileMe is no longer available.
Yes, this has a lot of customers upset, but you can still keep your account active and going until you are able to address the issue with the current versions of your computer and devices.
iCloud does have a web based version like any other email address out there. You may not be able to access the account on your Computers or devices as you would like to for what ever reason, but this will help you to keep your email address and gain access to it.
iCloud: Supported system requirements
You can KEEP your MobileMe email address and move it to iCloud even though your devices are not compatible and here is how.
****Mac OS X 10.4.11 and before: DOES NOT fall into this catagorey as 10.4.11 doesn't Support Safari 5.****
NON-Supported Devices & Browsers for iCloud
DEVICES & COMPUTERS
Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard
Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard
Windows XP
iPhone 3
iPhone 3Gs
iPod Touch 2nd Generation
BROWSERS
Safari 4
FireFox 3
Google Chrome 11
Before moving the account to iCloud. First create a MobileMe back up of all your data. This will ensure it has been saved to your computer.
How to back up MobileMe data:
Summary
You can back up your MobileMe data to your Mac or Microsoft Windows-based PC.
This is different from syncing with MobileMe: syncing should not be considered a backup of your data because changes to the data can propagate automatically.
Sync your MobileMe account to me.com and your current iOS device if you have one.
Make sure the data has synced to the device and http://me.com.
Then you will need to DISABLE MobileMe syncing from your Computer and Devices
On the iPhone
To delete your MobileMe account from the iPhone/Pad/Pod Touch, tap Settings ☞ Mail, Contacts, Calendars ☞ Tap your MobileMe account. Next, you will turn the sliders off for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Bookmarks Calendars. You are going to be asked if you want to keep or delete the data from the iPhone/Pad/Pod Touch. Make sure you KEEP on the iPhone/Pad/Pod Touch.
This will prevent data loss.
☞ Then Tap Delete Account. DON'T FORGET TO KEEP THE DATA ON THE DEVICE!!!
On the Mac
Click on  ☞ System Preferences ☞ MobileMe ☞ Account tab ☞ Sign Out.
To Move your account to iCloud
☞☞☞☞IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO BACK UP THE MOBILEME DATA AND TO SIGN OUT OF MOBILEME ON ALL DEVICES AS THIS CAN CAUSE POSSIBLE DATA LOSS DUE TO THE CURRENT OS YOU ARE USING.*****
Link: MobileMe: About moving to iCloud
Summary
If you have an active MobileMe account when you move to iCloud, you’ll be able to keep your @me.com or @mac.com email address and move your MobileMe Mail, Contacts, and Calendars, as well as your Bookmarks, to the new service.
Go to http://me.com/move
Log in with your FULL MobileMe email address including @me.com
(For @mac users, use @me.com just to log in. You will later see your account is @mac.com still)
As you go thorough the prompts, you will see an ALERT regarding if your OS is supported by iCloud.
Ignore this and select YES. This will contiue the iCloud set up.
Once it is done, you will have web access to iCloud via a supported browser (see below) for iCloud.
icloud.com
To access your mail, contacts, calendars, Find My iPhone, and iWork documents from your computer's web browser, one of these browsers is required:
Safari 5 or later
Firefox 5 or later
Internet Explorer 8 or later
Chrome 12 or later

Some Devices are not showing up at all in the Discovery reports

Hi all,
The first time I ran the CS device discovery I got 50 reachable devices. I scheduled the Device Discovery to be run every week. I added more subnets to the discovery but unfortunately the last discovery shows only 31 devices from the first discovered devices (50). I checked the DCR and there is only 44 devices out of the 50!
My question is:
Should not the scheduled Device Discovery discovers all devices -the previously discovered ones and the new ones-?
Why the rest of the devices are not showing up at all in the discovery reports (neither reachable nor unreachable) although all of them are pingable and responding to the snmpwalk tool from the CWLMS server.
Your kindly respond is highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I ran the discovery again with the same settings after enabling debugging and I checked the following log files:
1. in the ngdiscovery.log I found a lot of errors all about Duplicate IpAddress example:
ERROR [DeviceManager : EvalTask-DiscoveryThreadPool-06 addNewDevice] : Duplicate IpAddress (127.0.0.51) found in addNewDevice().Device 1 ip = 10.8.113.29 , id1 = 127.0.0.51*F1COR.xyz.com*.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.283, Device 2 ip = 10.8.113.106 , id2 = 127.0.0.51*LCD.xyz.com*.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.283

2. in the CSDiscovery.log:
Error while changing the permission of the file C:\PROGRA~1\CSCOpx\objects\csdiscovery\1348\DiscoveryStatusObj
I checked the file and the casusers has a Modify permission
My Question is:
1. what is the meaning of those output exactly?
2. If CWLMS found duplicatedd IP address how it works in terms of (ignoring, updating existing devices, Adding the new devices, ... etc)
Many thanks for your help.

Satellite L855-14G - Devices are not detected in device manager

I've reinstalled my Satellite L855/L855D (installed windows 7 instead of win 8) . And there is a problem : many devices are not found , like ethernet / wireless. Video card Radeon HD 7670M also not found. I can't install drivers, the errors apears that my hardware isn't suitable with software (e.g chipset). On toshiba's website i typed my satellite's serial number, but my computer isn't found. Whats wrong with this laptop ?
Same problem here: [http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/386506-33-devices-detected-device-manager-format-win7]
What should i do ? i've tried lots of drivers , but no one works. Please , give me advice. Thank you.
Toshiba Satellite L855-14G (Toshiba EUROPE GMBH)
Part. No. PSKFWE-00H00FG3
Intel (R) i5 3210M
AMD Radeon HD 7670M
4GB RAM DDR3
Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit

I've entered my satellite's specs on that website and installed chipset utility from that website. But when installion beggins, in description is written , that this version chipset utility (9.3.0.1020) supports i7 proccesors (Target Chipset#: Intel(R) 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family). Is this chipset utility suitable with my Intel i5 3210M proccesor ? One more i've tried Display drivers, but setup isn't starting.

One device does not stop ringing when answering FaceTime with another

Does anyone have this problem; I have a 15'' MBP 2011 OSX 10.8.2., and an iPhone 4 running iOS 6.0.1. When my FaceTime receives a call, both devices are ringing just as they should, but one device does not stop ringing when I use the other to answer the call. However, the call is disconnected after some time (like, if you don't answer at all, the call attempt is dropped). So, my FaceTime calls are constantly dropped. IF I answer and then choose to reject the call with the other device, the call is disconnected.
This problem occurred some time ago, perhaps with the Mountain Lion upgrade, but not sure - I don't get that many FT-calls but from my family abroad.

I had the same issue pairing a Mac G5 powerpc with a 2014 Macbook Pro and resolved it. In addition to pairing the devices through System Preferences>Bluetooth, make sure that "Bluetooth Sharing" is checked in System Preferences>Sharing as well. In my case, the devices always say "disconnected" in the Bluetooth panel, but change to "Connected" during an actual file transfer. Try sending a file even though it says "disconnected" and it may very well work fine. It also helps to check "Show Bluetooth in status in the menu bar" so you can quickly initiate a transfer from there.

My devices are not showing up on my itunes. How do i fix this?

My devices are not showing up on my itunes to sync. how do i fix this?

Why is this answer being accepted by users? Am I supposed to restart my Mac EVERY TIME I want to sync my iPhone, iPad or iPod?
Has anyone found a solution to this problem? I see this question in the Apple Support forums quite frequently, and the answer always boils down to 'http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591' - Which - after exhausting the obvious, you've got a bad cable or bad USB port checklist - recommends that you 'Restart your Mac' to resolve the issue.
That's not an adequate or acceptable answer - If Apple is ignoring this question, then they're the ones with a 'Problem' - Ignoring these obvious issues (this isn't a bad cable / bad USB port problem) is only going to lead to a loss of customers. I'm certain that Apple has the technical expertise to investigate and resolve the underlying issue. The real question is 'does Apple still value the customer'?
My iTunes (11.1.4) has stopped recognizing Devices (an iPad 2, an iPhone 5S, an iPod classic). This has been going on for about a month now (since 11.1.4?). Yes, I have the current OS (OS 10.9.1), yes my iDevice has the most recent iOS (just updated to 7.0.6 (1.1.2 for 160GB iPod Classic), yes my USB 3.0 ports work (after I reboot the computer). The syncing and connectivity works fine (with all my devices/cables/USB ports) until I disconnect my device - What good is my mobile device if I have to leave it tethered to my Mac in order to use it?

Some devices are not installed

Hello:
I think that I already installed all the drivers in my W520 but it still showing that some devices are not installed
In "Other devices" I have the folowing four entries:
- Base system device
- Biometric Coprocessor
- F5521gw
- PCI Serial Port
Could someone help me to identify which drivers I still need ??
Thanks for the help.
Regards.
Solved!

Hi Turco:
Download the "System Update" application from this link, install it, and run it.
This Lenovo application will then fetch the four missing items you list and install them automatically. It will also check to make sure all the other drivers are up to date.
The 'biometric coprocessor' is probably the fingerprint reader. The 'F5521w' is the cell phone modem. I don't know what the other two items are.
If you need a list of all the drivers available for your machine, you can get it (and the drivers themselves) from this link, which is the Device Driver File Matrix (DDFM) for the W520.
But, honestly, it is a heck of a lot simpler, easier, and faster to just download "System Update" and let it do all the work for you. In fact, you might even have that application on your computer already - just click on the Windows 7 orb (the coloured ball with the flag on it) and type "System Update" into the search box, if it is installed, you will see it appear in the results list. If it appears, click on it and run it.

My devices are not appearing in iTunes v11

After setting up iTunes 11, my devices are not showing up on the program.

I solved this by restarting my computer.

So if iMessages deleted from one device are not deleted from others why not recover deleted iMessages from iCloud?
