Synch and updates on MS laptop

My husband loses all his information every time he synch's to his MS laptop. He gets an error message then it reverts to factory settings. We couldn't afford the mobileme for both of us so we dropped it. is there anything he can do?

Whitbed the CS5 installer should request a qualifying serial number.  Simply enter in your previous version serial number and it should install successfully for you.

  • HT201210 Hi, the App Store icon has been removed from my iPad even after synching and updating. Any suggestions on how to get it back to be able to update / purchase apps?

    If you do not have, or remember, the passcode for Restrictions, the only option available to you is to reset the device to factory settings via itunes.

  • BlackBerry Z10/Q10 - contacts stop synching or updating (both ways from device and MS Outlook)

    Hi folks,
    Hopefully somebody can shed some light on this issue we are starting to see more and more at work.
    Are users are connected to the BDS10 server.   When they activate the device they are using the Work Account option.
    The issues are everything works excepts Contacts.   When they initially activate the device the contacts may or may not come over to device.   May or may not work accordingly with the updates from outlook and the device.   Then out of nowhere the synching and updating may stop.
    I have tried everything i can think of with the user:
    moved contacts into a sub-folder
    exported contacts to .csv and then re-import to possibly eliminate a bad entry
    delete and recreate the workspace
    delete and readd on the BDS10 and then delete and recreate the workspace
    guided the user to the old BB Article:
    http://btsc.webapps.blackberry.com/btsc/viewdocument.do?noCount=true&externalId=KB10009&sliceId=2&cm...
    Some databases failed to synchronize: Address book
    If the above error occurs, please follow the below checklist
    1)  Ensure that at least one of the following fields for the contact is populated(not blank)
         First Name
         Last Name
         Company Name
    2)  Check that there are no special characters within the BlackBerry smartphone Address Book, IBM Lotus Notes address book, or Microsoft Outlook contact
    Special characters include: () # $ @ ! & % " - , ^ " ; ,
    NOTE: these users have 800 or more contacts, one user has 3093 contacts!
    NOTE: these users stated they NEVER had this problem with THEIR OLD BB DEVICES!
    NOTE: our company is using MS Exchange 2003 ActiveSync in relation to user's mail store.
    Any help would be appreciated!

    Outlook/BB contact syncing seems broken. I have around 50 contacts and it couldn't sync those properly either. i was getting duplicates each time the device was restarted.
    The best way to sync contacts on a Z10/Q10 is to add the contacts directly to your mail box. I added all my contacts to me @live.com address book and my Q10 pulled those contacts just fine.

  • My screen is frozen after I hooked it up on my laptop for synching and this window appeared asking to have the ipod updated. Now it won't do anything.

    My screen is frozen after I hooked it up to my laptop for synching and this window appeard asking for update. Now it won't do anything.

    Have you tried a hard reset yet to see if that makes a difference?  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.  This may take a couple of tries.

  • I have a new pc, and when updating ipad software it will erase all apps etc, is there any way to stop this from happening and make my new laptop my ipads "home" pc???

    I have a new laptop, and have copied over my existing itunes libary, but when i connect my ipad, and go to update the software to the new version it warns me that it will wipe all my apps etc..... How can i stop this from happening and make my new laptop the "home" for my ipad??
    Any help gratefully received! :-)

    Macs use an application called Migration Assistant to copy material from the old Mac to the new one. The macs are connected together and each runs Migration Assistance and the user chooses what stuf to copy onto the new Mac.
    Unfortunately I do not know how to do this between pcs or between a Mac and a Pf or even if it's even possible.

I closed my laptop, not shut down. I re-opened the laptop a few hours later, and it wants restoring?? Whats going on?! i want my iphone back! PLEASE HELP. I'M LOST!!! (I synced my iphone to my computer if that helps at all).

    Yes, and, I try to restore. I have the T-Mobile sim card in it just to clarify. It will not let me get passed that, it does not accept the t-mobile sim card. i tried restoring it using wifi, cellular, and i cant get i tunes. I am scared that if i take the tmobile sim card out and put the at&t one in just to complete the restoration process that the iphone will lock again and not read the tmobile sim card, then all my hard work has gone for nothing. ( this whole process was caused by me trying wanting to empty my pictures onto my computer because i did not have any storage space left). <--- that may not be as important, but i included it just because.

    You need to install Office on the computer from the installer DVD or disc image you purchased.

  • Multiple iphones each with an apple id - can i use the same laptop and itunes for back up, restore and updates?

    We have two iphones each with a different apple id - can i use the same laptop and itunes for back up, restore and updates without risking having my apps overwritten.  Basically does itunes keep the two iphones as two separate entities ?  Does iTunes differentiate between the two devices and keep two different SYNCs ?

    Yes, you can use the same computer for BACK UPS, RESTORING AND UPDATING. But that is it.
    You cannot, however, use it to sync the different devices. iTunes will only recognize one device to sync with and if you sync any other devices with that iTunes library, it will replace what is on the phone with whatever is in the library. It cannot differentiate between devices. At most, it will jsut recognize that the phone has been synced with a different iTunes library.
    So if you would like to use the same computer for backing up, restoring and updating, just make sure to turn of Automatic Syncing in your iTunes Preferences.

    If they are iTunes purchases that you bought on your phone then have you copied them over from it to your computer's iTunes ? If that is the computer that you sync the phone to then you should be able to copy them over by connecting it and doing File > Devices > Transfer Purchases. Or (depending upon what country that you are in) you might be able to redownload them directly on your computer's iTunes via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage.
    In terms of your account's balance, have you tried logging out of your account on your computer (Store > Sign Out menu option) and then logging back in (it will change to a Store > Sign In option) and seeing if your balance changes ?

  • How to Access and Update Existing DW site using DW 5.5 on new laptop?

    We already use InDesign and have recently upgraded to 5.5.  At the same time my partner bought a new laptop and decided to upgrade his version of DW. This was an early version, with no upgrade path, so he bit the bullet and bought DW 5.5  No problems installing it on his new laptop. His site is extensive but very basic -  no addons. He has a good basic grasp of html.
    What he would now like to do, is to download the remote site onto his laptop from its host and in future update it from his laptop.(He travels a lot.) As I said it is an early version of DW, predates CS versions but is just basic html. Is there a generally accepted way of doing this? If so is it in the tutorials etc? He can't find it in theHelp for 5.5?
    Just to add, the new laptop would be the only location on which the website wouldbe stored. This is so he can update it from the road and keep to a single version to update.

    If you could bear with me a bit longer. My partner has an old version of DW and so some of the interfaces have changed.
    Am I correct, he must open the local site on his old pc, using the orignal software on there, and then using Sites/Manage Site options export it in .ste format?  (I am assuming his orignal DW version has these options.) Does he create the new export .ste version with the same name?
    At this stage he should then have a .ste version of his site on his old computer. You say he should then" send" this file to the new laptop. Do you meant copy it onto a memory stick and import it to the new laptop as though it were a new file?  Then go to the remote server to access the file there and update it?
    One last question, my partner cannot find the command to access his remote site, in DW CS 5.5 - He says it is not where it is on his version. Where is the remote site access command in DW CS 5.5 please?

  • HT1692 After synching, I updated to newer version of iTunes. I do not have contacts on my phone - but I have all the messages and photos there still. How do I find my missing contacts?

    After synching, I updated to newer version of iTunes. I do not have contacts on my phone - but I have all the messages and photos there still. How do I find my missing contacts?

    Still no success.
    My problem, in part, is that I have 2 iphones. I transferred one to another computer that now syncs with iCloud. The other phone I was updating today on my old computer. It was recognised by iTunes, and automatically synched. Then I updated it to a newer version of iTunes, and lost my contacts on that iPhone. I have trawled to Windows Contacts but to no avail.
