There are someone else's pictures on my mobileme gallery

I've just got an AppleTV and when I look under Internet > MobileMe with my Apple account, there's someone else's gallery. I've a fairly distinct log in so I'm thinking this is unlikely to be someone getting an email address wrong. Also, I've not had any odd emails. I can't understand what they're doing there or how to get rid of them. Any ideas? Thanks

Nobody could use your email address to set up a MobileMe Gallery. Only people with @me.com email addresses (i.e. full MobileMe acounts) can create galleries.
Possibly you're viewing the gallery of the MobileMe member whose username is the same as the part before the @ in your email address.
Go to http://gallery.me.com/username and see if you get the same gallery come up.

Apple printed someone else's pictures in my book

Has anyone seen this happen? After carefully assemblying your book, and creating a pdf file to triple check it, Apple prints a book that mixes someone else's order with your own? This is what happened to me. My printed book starts with someone else's pictures and text, followed by the pictures I ordered... And not just that, but the picture pages stick together to the point where they rip when we turn the pages. What do you all think Apple should do about that?

I have been going at it with Apple now for over a month! I ordered a book and it came back with blank pages and with photos not scaled properly. I sent three emails via the iPhoto support page and received no replies. As you stated they promise a response within 48 hrs. Then some two weeks later they had the nerve to send me a survey thanking me for using the web support function and please rate "how we did!" You can only imagine how I responded. I next tried contacting a live person at Apple Care to help me out. I provided them my order number. They indicated that that was not a correct number. Turns out that Apple Care cannot track orders made through iPhoto! No one at Apple Care was even familiar with what an iPhoto book was. I then called Apple corporate hq's and spoke to a "customer care" rep. She assured me I would be contacted within 48 hrs (sound familiar) and my problem would be resolved. I heard nothing for over a week. Calls back to Ms. Graser of customer care were met by voice mail. Finally this week I recieved a canned response back from Apple. They noted that they would credit the charge back to my card. They also asked if I were interested in reordering my book and if so they would "assist" me. I replied that I was interested in trying to reorder the book. So what does Apple do? Without any further contact to find out why the book came back incomplete, they reorder the same %&*#'d up book and recharge my credit card for the full amount (including $15 for express shipping)!
If I were you I would contact my credit card company ASAP. Dispute the charge and they will remove it from your account. My card company did just that without any hesitation.
BUYER BEWARE! Apple provides no support or quality control for this product. DO NOT BUY!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good luck!

Why does someone else's picture show up as me when messaging?

Sounds like some of the templates provided by apple. Google lorem ipsum for info on the filler text used.

Someone else's picture on my Photostream

First time posting on here so be gently
I've just been looking through my photos on my AppleTV device and found that there is a photo on there that I didn't take (i.e. - Someone elses photo !!).
How is it possible that I have an image from someone else's stream and more importantly, does this mean that my photos could be floating around on someone else's ???
I've also checked on my Mac and the photo doesn't have any location information, but has a time and date of Feb last year on a day that I was at work.
It's also quite clearly taken in another country and I haven't even been abroad in the past few years (Sad I know ).
Any help on this would be much appreciated.
Cheers all

I don't have an answer, but a possibly related situation (pre-Photostream). Several years ago I was on a cruise and the ship had free wifi all over, including the cabins. I had my MacBook Pro with me, and one day the woman in the cabin next to mine told me that she had opened iPhoto on her own Mac and all my pictures were there. She didn't know what to do and was afraid to delete them, so she left them alone. Later they were gone. I never understood why this would happen.
Also, before I had Photostream, my iPad (I) had only one picture on it, and it was one that I had never seen before and that looked like it was taken in another country.
Could this picture be an Apple "Easter egg"?

TS2551 I recently added pictures to iphoto. There are a lot of pictures that are just black voids. I can find the originals, but why is this happening and how can I fix it?

I am very new to owning my macbook. I am lost as to how to fix this. Is this related to the updates that I recently installed?

Check the iPhoto Preferences:
Advanced -> Importing,
and make sure, that "copy items to the iPhoto Library" is enabled.
Otherwise your imported images will not be stored inside the iPhoto library, and if you move, delete, or rename them, iPhoto cannot access them any longer.
If that is not the problem, please post back and explain more detailed how you are importing and where your iPhoto library is located.
To fix it, if you imported without copying, and iPhoto is missing the originals, you need to put them back, exactly where you removed them from.
Or simply import again with the "copy" option checked.

Someone else's photos (333 of them) showed up as mounted folder after crash

So iPhoto has been crashing a lot as I have been updating keywords using Keyword Assistant (I recently imported ~3500 pictures). When iPhoto re-opens after a crash, sometimes I lose some of the changes I recently made.
But to my big surprise, when it auto-reopened iPhoto after the most recent crash, I had 333 photos in a mounted folder (with an eject button) labeled "Joe Schmoe's Photos" dated 2006/09/29 to 2007/08/05. I do not know this person, do not recognize the photos, and I seem to have pictures dated through yesterday. I am not a .Mac subscriber, nor do I share my photos online through iPhoto, but it would seem that I have been granted access to Joe Schmoe's photos.
If I indeed have been accidentally granted access to someone else's photos, this is a huge security concern! I have a screen shot of this and will share it with an Apple developer/employee, but do not want to post it here because of privacy issues related to showing someone else's pictures to the world.
If anyone has any ideas of what else might be going on, I'm all ears.
Note the following:
-I was connected to the internet(wirelessly) at the time of the crash/re-open.
-These photos are not in my library, but seem to be a separate mounted folder.
-The name does not show up in searches of my computer nor in the finder/desktop as a mounted drive.
-There is no exposure info on any of the pictures
-When it crashed and reopened (again, just now), Nathan Bowen's photos are still there, but it seems to take time to load them (like they're downloading perhaps)

TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Someone else's calendar entries on Ipad?!?!

So..our CEO bought an Ipad,(OS 3.2.2) and we set it up for exchange. The issue is that after it syncs, there is someone else's calendar entries along with his! We moved him to a different (2007) exchange server, deleted his account from the Ipad, and set it up again. All the entries came back. These are ONLY on the ipad and not in his calendar on outlook. Needless to say I am very perplexed. We have several other Ipad users, including myself, and none are experiencing this issue. Any thoughts, insights or solutions are greatly appreciated!!!!

If you know that for a fact, then you should know whose thumbprint it is. Remove the thumbprint in Settings>Touch ID and Passcode. Enter your passcode, then go to Fingerprints, and remove that print from the settings.
Then take it up with whoever set the print up in your iPad.

Getting someone else's e-mails

For the past month I have been getting someone else's e-mails. It started with a warning that my account would be shut down if I didn't pay; then I got thank yous for renting two movies that I didn't rent. Now I have been told after several warnings that my account is good. I have contacted Verison three times to resolve the issue. All three times I was told that my two accounts were current and ignore. However, I am still getting someone else's e-mails. Evidently this is beyond Verizon's ability to fix - they cannot do a search on a particular e-mail and see what shows up. I am quite frustrated by this and there is someone else who is not getting his/her e-mails. Any suggestions other than simply ignore?

Can't give you advice, but will tell you I went though and still go through the same thing. Someone has an email that is similar to mine and I get all their personal emails, tax info, when they were buying a house, I emailed the people once I dug through and found the actual email, Verizon said there was nothing they could do. All I do now, is delete them as they come in. Its irritating though.

My Macbook Pro's iTunes App was logged in as someone else. I logged out of that account and logged into mine, but I found that the app still shows all of the previous account's content. None of my apps, songs, or movies are there!

My Macbook Pro's iTunes App was logged in as someone else. I logged out of that account and logged into mine, but I found that the app still shows all of the previous account's content. None of my apps, songs, or movies are there! iTunes 12.1.0.50 on OS X Yosemite version 10.10. Why is iCloud doing this, and how do I view my content again?

MacBook Pro / Mozilla Firefox / Netflix / Silverlight Update solved - DON'T DWNLOAD FROM NETFLIX
I solved this problem tonight. I have a MacBook Pro with 10.5.8. I know, it's old. But I love my Netflix and I recently noticed that Firefox plays Netflix much better. Then I suddenly got this message that I needed to download the latest Silverlight - it only takes 30 seconds! - WRONG. However, after much searching, I finally did the steps in order and it worked.
This was after repeatedly downloading Silverlight from the Netflix site without success. So here's what I did:
1. Went to http://www.microsoft.com/getsilverlight/Get-Started/Install/Default.aspx
2. Followed the directions. I felt like such an idiot for not doing it right before.
3. Go to your hard drive and search for "Silverlight" to locate ANY existing Silverlight files: .dmg, etc.
[also check your Libary/ Internet Plug-ins, but the above search is faster]
4. Drag it all to the trash and empty it.
5. Go back to the Get Silverlight page and click on the Install on that page, not the Netflix site.
6. Note the steps for Safari or Mozilla Firefox - I wanted Firefox, so I follwed those instructions.
7. Once it's installed, close all the browsers and Restart that bad boy. Right away.
8. Open a browser, go to Netflix and proceed to joyfully rot your brain with Netflix content. Yay!

Is there a way to download someone else's iphone pictures to my computer without interfering with my iphone backup/ itunes?

is there a way to download someone else's iphone pictures to my computer without interfering with my iphone itunes backup?

Ensure that your iTunes is set up so it will not sync automatically. Then you can connect the other iPhone to your computer and import the photos in the same manner that you import photos from your phone and/or a digital camera.

is there a way to download someone else's iphone pictures to my computer without interfering with my iphone itunes?

Yes.
Photos/videos in the iPhone's Camera Roll can be imported by a computer as with any other digitial camera, which is completely separate from iTunes and does not involve iTunes.
I sync my iPhone with iTunes on my Mac and I sometimes import photos from my iPhone's Camera Roll with my Windows PC at work.

When I downloaded firefox someone else's bookmarks and homepage are there, it is a used computer. How can I "start over" with firefox?

I have tried deleting firefox from my computer entirely (I have a macbook). Then when I download it again, much later, it still acts like it knows what bookmarks and homepage I want. These were obviously set by someone else, and I want it to be fresh, I want to start over with a new firefox. I bought the computer used, and apparently firefox recognizes it as having been downloaded before and automatically adds stuff to it. It is annoying!!

The simplest method will be to create a new profile and delete the old one. User information such as bookmarks is stored in a profile folder. You can create and remove profiles by using the profile manager. First use the profile manager to create a new profile, then use it to delete the old profile.
For details on using the profile manager see the [[managing profiles]] article. An alternative site that can help is http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager

Hi. I was given an iPod with hundreds of songs. Now I have created my own iTunes account on my computer. Is there any way of adding my iTunes to my existing iPad (someone else's iTunes account) without losing all of the songs already on my iPod?

Hi there. I was given an iPod loaded with hundreds of songs. I have created an iTunes account on my computer. Is it possible to add the songs from my own iTunes account onto my iPod, which was created by someone else using their iTunes account, without losing all the songs on my iPod. Probably a stupid question, but I am one of the "older" generation .... Thanks

The The person who gave yo the iPod did not have the right/licence to also give you the media on the iPod. If you use it yo are stealing.
Go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content end Settings and set the iPod up with your media.

Someone else's photos are popping up in my photo stream? Anybody else have a similar problem?

As the topic says. It's funny that after #theFappening Apple seems to have another problem with iCloud. The photos that are popping up have been taken with an iPhone 5S, I however have an iPhone 5 regular. There are always three photos. Whenever I check on the photos app there are new three photos, with the last ones disappearing. Very discomforting to think that somebody else might have my photos the same way.

Well, my apologies to Apple for saying they have an embarrassing glitch. It turns out the fault was on my end. What happened: a friend of mine (Windows PC owner) was unable to transfer his photos to his PC. He asked if he could use my Mac and transfer them via iPhoto. Of course I helped and even turned off my wifi, so that his photos wouldn't turn up in my photo stream. After we transferred and exported the pictures to a USB stick, I immediately deleted them from iPhoto, but it seems like a bunch of photos somehow still managed to get into my stream.
I just hope his dick doesn't pop up in my stream. Wouldn't want to have to explain that to my wife, as we are using an iPad at home which is connected to my stream as well.
