Switched from BB Torch 3 mths ago, not 100% satisfied, I'm trying...I plugged in my bfs Macpro to charge, I didn't get a prompt asking what I wanted to do(BB does), all my bfs txt msgs,pics were on my phone, EVERYTHING, my holiday pics R gone:( why

I don't understand why there wasn't a prompt to ask what I wanted to do, when my phone was plugged into my bfs computer. My BB always asked what I wanted to do, and in order to answer, I had to unlock my phone. I lost everything, from pics of us cutting down our tree, which was actually the top of a 17ft tree, and us holding it after we had trimmed it to the size we wanted... All pics of our holidays & New Years, which was our first year we got to spend it together, so they were really special to me. I have had my issues with not being able to go in the middle of a word, to correct spelling, and not having the keyboard like the torch, but I was trying my best to learn to love the iPhone, like anyone I know who has one, had told me I would come to love it. I am completely devastated over this, and I can not understand how this could have happened. Shouldn't I of had a prompt, asking me to restore my phone??? Something to notify me of what was going to happen...Anything, but it went ahead and changed my phone over, which even has the background/wallpaper choices of the iPhone5. I lost all my contacts, and my notes??? I have health problems and kept a record of everything, which I have done with my blackberry, and its all gone...every bit of it:( All my apps had my bfs AppleID and had to change all of that, and to my surprise, all my reminders came back the day after. How could this possibly have happened to me??? I had a lock on my phone, and if anything, I thought the iPhone would be the same as the blackberry when it came to that, but even better, and I was wrong, but I paid for my poor lack of judgement...to me, the price I paid for it, I will never forget it. When I saw the reminders had come back, I thought there may be a chance of recovering the rest of the data I lost on my phone....well, I am hoping, praying, there is a way to retrieve it all.
If anyone can help me with this, please, please, please, I would soooooo appreciate it...it means the world to me, and if its possible to do, I'll stay with iPhone:)
Thank You

There was a prompt. It asked if you wanted to set it up as a new phone or restore from a backup. You, or someone, selected "Restore from Backup".
What were you backing it up to before you did this? If your computer, plug it in to your computer and restore.
If iCloud, go to Settings>General>Resets>Reset All Content and Settings. When it goes through the setup, tell it to restore it from your iCloud backup.
If nothing, then the content of your phone is gone.

I have tried to upgrade to the new Version 4. I continue to get the ad asking if I want the new version! I don't think the new version worked. Can you suggest something I might be doing wrong? Thank you.

There is no more content. The new version won't activate on my computer.

Device switch from BB Torch to BB Passport

We downloaded and installed the BB link software and then tried to use it to switch from the BB Torch to the new Passport but every time we tried to use it, it crashed.
We looked for the device switch app in Blackberry World but could not find it!!
Tried re-installing it several times - same result! Ended up doing the data switch using a media card and that worked fine.
All this was really frustrating and time-consuming till we got an end result. Why does BB software not work better?!!

You need to install the device switch app in both the handsets. And now either turn on hotspot from your device or use wi-fi. Note: both the devices should be connected in the same line; open the apps in both the devices and choose the device which you wanted to transfer the data from and search for the other device. Should be able to transfer the data now. Hope it helps.

Hi.
Does this only open on that specific site?
In any case, you may want to:
- instruct Firefox to handle PDF files in a specific way by going into Tools > Options > Applications and selecting the option you want for the PDF files
- reinstall Adobe Reader and its Firefox plugin
- install another reader instead of Adobe Reader. I recommend Foxit Reader ( http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/reader/ ), since it's free, VERY light, VERY fast, safe and also has a Firefox plugin (make sure you don't have both Adobe Reader plugin and Foxit Reader plugin enabled/installed at the same time in Firefox)

The first subscription I bought did not convert PDF files over 100 MB, so PLEASE cancel it immediately as it doesn't do what I want it to. Does Acrobat 11 Pro do the conversion?

Hi m_bofra,
To cancel the subscription, please contact customer service: https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html?promoid=KLXMX
Also, you may install the trial version of Adobe Acrobat Professional XI on your computer and check it should convert the document unless the document is
not password protected, also the document was originally created by standard application like Adobe Acrobat.

you may delete this discussion. I fixed the issue

How would I be able to pull up all of the text messages tat were in my phone over the course of 2 years and back them up to my computer since my phone has a broken screen and can no longer read the mesages.

If the messages are stored on the device and you can power the device up you can use the application posted at https://community.verizonwireless.com/thread/770529 , the application has a screen capture option and you can use the screen as a guide to install MyBackup from Market or a number of backup apps from Market and then you can run the applications and backup data to your SD Card to restore to the replacement device.

TS3694 I've ios 5.1.1 on my ios and i want to update to 6.1.2 not 6.1.3 ive downloaded the 6.1.2 file but for some reason i keep getting (3194) error.. what do I do?

You are getting the 3194 error because you cannot update to 6.1.2, since it is no longer current.
The fact that you downloaded the 6.1.2 file does not matter. If you upgrade, you must upgrade to the latest version.
I cannot imagine why you would not want to update to the current 6.1.3 version instead of 6.1.2.

TS2481 All of my calendar history older than 30 days has disappeared from my iphone5. I have not synced it with my computer. It just suddenly disappeared. Is there any way to get it back?

All of my calendar history older than 30 days has disappeared from my iphone 4S. I did not perform a sync with my computer-it literally just disappeared! Is there any way to get it back?

Unfortunatly for me I did not, do you think there might be any other way? Maybe by accesing it directly through direct USB contact and not through iTunes?

What can I do simply to keep all my previous contents, (own pics, videos, etc.) on my previously authorized iPad on PC, but get a new authorisation and a right syncronization, without data loss with a new iTunes on my new Mac?

Friends,
I already had an iPad(1) and its full contents (not only the purchased items, applications from Apple, but my all own pics, videos, songs etc.) is normally syncronized with an authorized PC (Windows) computer.
Now, I've bought a new MacBook Air computer, and want to sell my PC. But I don't know how to transfer (or syncronize) all of the contents from my previous iTunes on PC to the new one on the Mac.
When I connected my iPad to my new MacBook Air, I promted, if I want to change authorization of my iPad to the MacBook.
But also got a warning, that the new iTunes will delete from my iPad all my previously syncronized items, pics, videos and music, with the previously authorized iTunes on the previous computer, expect the saved pics from the net.
What can I do just like that, simply to keep all my previous contents on my iPad, but have a new authorisation and a right syncronization, without data loss with the new iTunes on my new Mac?
Thanks a lot for your answer.

Here are some instructions that I have posted several times that may be helpful to you as they have been to others. You can simply ignore anything that does not apply or that you have already done.
As Alan stated above - transferring the iTunes library is the best first step. If you can transfer the iTunes library to the Mac, most of this will be unecessary for you to do.
Very Important ....
1. Authorize the computer.
2. Turn off auto sync in iTunes
3. Transfer purchases
The text in italics is from the other thread - non italics are my words.
The following was copied from this thread. This is essentially what you want to accomplish.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/11527071#11527071
1) Without connecting your iPad to your new computer, start iTunes. Click on iTunes. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
2) Now connect your iPad to your computer and start iTunes.
3) When iTunes starts, right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select Transfer purchases etc.
4) After it finishes transferring all your apps to your computer, right click on your iPad and select Backup your iPad.
5) After it finishes backing up your iPad, right click on your iPad and select Restore etc.
6) After it finishes restoring, left click on your iPad , then click on the Apps tab on top, and check the box next to Sync Apps, then click on Apply below.
If everything on your iPad looks good after the sync, go back and click on iTunes / Preferences / Devices and UN-check the box next to Prevent your iPod etc. The only other thing you may want to check is if your contacts, bookmarks, etc. are syncing correctly now. If not, go to the Info tab after connecting and make sure you indicate which features you want to sync with what sources.
Read this thread and the support links as well. There are apps that you can purchase that will allow you to transfer photos from the iPad to your computer. Look at Photo Transfer App in the App store and you can search for others as well.

Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings. This will erase your phone. Then you will go through the setup screens again as you did when your phone is new, and when given the option, select Restore from iCloud Backup.

HT204150 To get my daughter's iphone4 setup I used my account#, and because I did this my contacts were on her phone. She deleted my contacts from her phone and they are now off of my phone. How do I get my contact back on my iphone4s??? Please help becau

I tried to also remove my account# from my daughter's phone so that we could get one assigned to her, but there is no edit prompt, so please tell me how to accomplish this. I really need to get my contacts back if that is possible, which I hope it is.

When you share an iCloud account any synced data such as contacts is merged. Also, any action you take on one device (such as deleting contacts) is synced to the other. (That's what iCloud does; it syncs changes across your devices so they maintain consistent data.) Unfortunately, you contacts are no longer in iCloud. Your only option is to try restoring your phone to your last backup, which may recover your contacts.
To sort out your iCloud issue, one of the phones need to be migrated to a separate account. On the phone that will be moving, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud. The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.) When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone. Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom). Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new account.
Finally, to un-merge the data you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want (i.e., deleting your daughter's data from your account, and vice versa).
Another thing to avoid is using the same ID on both phones for iMessage and FaceTime. If you do, you'll end up getting each other's text messages and FaceTime calls. If you're doing this, on one of the phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID (such as your iCloud ID). Do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.

3.6.12 Updates not asking what I want to do?

I mostly surf in free/ safe sandboxie virtual box..., and don't want FF automatically doing useless updates that will be auto-deleted on closing!
I ticked All 3 in Advanced/Update (outside sandboxie), and "Ask me what I want to do/OK".
Problem?- FF just auto-updated my Webmail Adblocker during a sandboxie surf session?
I closed sandboxie, and opened FF regular, and all my Advanced Update settings are correct (OK again). Then I manually did the Webmail ADblocker update.
Is this a bug or what?- I sure don't want FF auto updating to the next full version, while I'm in sandboxie (done this in the past)?

No, the organizer is a catalog based management system, and its principle is that it takes great care to avoid creating duplicates. Instead it can create collections of files (called 'albums') which are kinds of 'playlists' which can contain links to the same image. You can have several albums including (that is 'pointing to') the same image. That does not create duplicates.
What the organizer can do is to 'export as new file' a file to another location anywhere. The 'exported' file is not included (registered, cataloged...) in the catalog, but it"s available for other softwares.

Switch from syncing with palm to outlook -- not all calendar entries appear in outlook

I've been syncing (usb/cradle) my treo 700p with palm desk on a vista laptop with no problems, but want to switch back to using outlook 2003. Everything EXCEPT calendar syncs fine. When I sync calendar nothing later that 2004 appears -- these were items that were in outlook when I switched to palm. I've tried deleting them in outlook and resyncing with 'handheld overwrites desktop', but still only the old ones appear! Please help!
