TS2776 I have my iphone 5 for 7 months now and from time to time, my contacts, without notice, get scrambled, i.e., multiple contacts go into one, or I lose contacts....How does this happen and why?   And is there a quick fix to reset the contacts as they

I have my iphone 5 for 7 months now and from time to time, and without warning, my contacts get scambled, i.e., multiple contacts become one.   I am losing my patience.   Help.

I couldn't find the edit button on my original post so I am posting an update here.
I have gone through more apps and have had good luck on all but one more.  And it's not that the app doesn't work, I am talking about the Yahoo Weather app, It works fine, but when you swipe between cities the screen lags a bit and it sometimes doesn't move between pages the way it should.  On iOS 7.1.2 it was smooth as butter but on iOS 8.0, not so much.  I will post a note in the app store to let them know.  I really like the Yahoo app better than the new stock app.
I have been going through my games and they all work fine. Angry Birds (Original and Stella), Canabalt, Minecraft, Bejeweled 2, Silly Walks, PopWords, Doodle Jump, Deep Green all seem to work just fine. 
Starbucks app works as it should. 
I will stop back again next week after I have had the weekend to play with it in detail and post my thoughts again.

  • I have had my iphone 5 for 13 months now and have always had the same car charger (not an apple brand).  I recently downloaded the latest software update and now all of a sudden i keep getting the message that my charger isnt supported by my device.

    Is there anyway to fix this problem? Im seriously considering getting away from apple as bad as I hate too.  I love the apple OS but you can never get a hold of customer service, there is only one style of phone, and now apparently, you have to pay extra for "apple" accessories becasue others wont work. 

    Well I am having the same issue and I had not had to worry about getting a "licensed charger."  The poster who responded offered not real insite and was rude to boot.  I am also looking for the fix on this .  My iphone will not even charge now on any charger.  What the heck.  I am not trying to treaten anyone either when I say I am frustrated with my iphone which in my case I have only had for a few months.  I have already sent one in to be replaced and this is my second one.  I have had troubles since the update GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR .

  • Expiration of Reward points and status change from elite status how does this happen?

    My rewards point have expired and my elite status has changed. How does this happen?

    Good morning John30csx, and welcome to the Best Buy forum,
    I can understand questioning why your account status may have been downgraded.  To have retained Elite status, you would need to have spent $1500 on eligible BestBuy.com and Best Buy store purchases during the 2013 calendar year.  If you did not spend at least $1500 by 12/31/2013, then your account status would have been downgraded sometime in February.
    From what I can see after looking over your My Best Buy account, you had a $20 certificate that expired in September 2013.  Prior to some program changes that went into effect last year, a certificate would have expired 90 days (180 days for Premier Silver/Elite Plus members) after it was originally issued.  Once a certificate has officially expired, we are unable to issue a new one.
    With that all being said, please feel free to send me a private message if you perhaps have any additional questions about the My Best Buy program or your account.  A private message can be sent by clicking on the blue button located within my signature.

  • In Mac Mail on OS 10.5.8 I am receiving bogus emails which claim to be sent by people in my address book, but actually are not.  How does this happen and how can I correct this problem

    n Mac Mail on OS 10.5.8 I am receiving bogus emails which claim to be sent by people in my address book, but actually are not.  How does this happen and how can I correct this problem

    You said:
    I am receiving bogus emails which claim to be sent by people in my address book, but actually are not.
    ...and:
    Are you saying that my address book has not been hacked into?  That others are getting these email addresses from another source?
    This confuses me.  Are you saying that you are receiving bogus e-mails from some of your contacts, or are you saying that they are receiving bogus e-mails from you?
    If the latter, there are a number of reasons that people might be getting e-mail from you.  Malware, though technically possible, is extremely unlikely.  See Someone is sending messages from my e-mail address!
    If the former, that's rather unusual.  The only decent explanation I can think of is that a bunch of your Windows-using contacts got infected with something and their machines are being used to spam everyone in their contact lists, which would include you.

  • My number has been showing up as calling people while in my possession and sometimes off.  How does this happen?  How do I stop it?

    I've tried to contact facebook support and been trying to get on live chat for hours to no avail.  Please help me stop annoying people.

    A month ago I received a spoofed call at 6A - obviously I was not happy. Came from 000-0000000 as I recall.
    Tonight I had two irate people call me minutes apart saying I called them - I was eating dinner with my wife with my phone turned off in our eye-sight.
    I cannot believe that we allow spoofing software and spoof cards these days, with only a crime if someone asks for money or does some similar fraudulent activity.

  • How does this happen: The picture of recent apps you get when double clicking the home button showed in Settings-Wifi that I had been connected to a network I have not been near for two months. Its not a recent "image" of Settings-Wifi. Can anyone explain

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.

  • Under search in maps, names come up that aren't in my contacts. How does this happen?

    Under search history in the Maps app,...along with all the other places I
    did search for, some addresses comes up that I'm not familiar with, and they stay
    there. In some cases I didn't search for them at all. Some I may have. A name also
    appears, under the address, like "from John Doe". It’s a name that
    I'm familiar with my email, but is not in my contacts. Why and how does
    this happen?
    For example, a person I receive emails from for work, came up as the
    "from", and the address, after I searched for it (not on my phone).....I found out
    it was the address of his company, I place I've never searched for, nor is
    there a hyper-link to it any emails/websites that I could have clicked on
    accidentally.
    In another example, the beginning of an address “5165” which I may have searched
    for and starting typing in came up in the history with several locations that
    start with those numbers. Most of them say “from current location”, but one says from
    a name, whom again I’m familiar with by email, but is not in my contacts and
    have no idea of why the name would be somehow connected to the address.

    Thank you for the reply. I really appreciate it. Do you know why the names are attached, as "from"?
    I attached a screen shot image. "Harry" and "Angela" are not contacts in my phone. Who would their names get there?

  • I have had my iMac for 55 days now and twice I had to power off/on and then It does not power up correctly.  I verified my disk and found errors that could not be repaired.  I erased the drive and restored system back to the previous day.

    I have had my iMac for 55 days now and twice I had to power off/on and then It does not power up correctly.  I verified my disk and found errors that could not be repaired (errors were associated with boot drive)  I erased the drive and restored system back to the previous day.  Has anyone else experienced this problem?

    Since it's a new machine, contact Apple's Support and let them deal with it. Allen's already recommended an Apple repair station visit. Do note that if you have AppleCare's protection plan and you're within 50 miles (80 KM) of an Apple repair station, you might be eligible for an onsite repair since yours is a desktop machine (depends on where you're located).  BTW, the AppleCare Protection Plan's the best warranty policy available for desktop machines. Get it if you don't have it before contacting Apple.

  • Does anyone still have problems with Premier Pro on Maverick? and is there any known fix?

    Does anyone still have problems with Premier Pro on Maverick? and is there any known fix?

    I know OSX 10.9 Mavericks introduced a power saving feature called App Nap which is meant to slow down applications that it determins are inactive (or when minimized). This would mostly likely cause problems if you're dynamically linking After Effects comps to your timeline or sometimes exporting to Media Encoder.
    Try disabling App Nap for all your Adobe App files...
    Go to your Applications folder
    Go into individual Adobe app folders (ie. Adobe Premiere Pro CC)
    Right-click on the Adobe app file (ie. Adobe Premiere Pro CC.app) and select Get Info
    When the info window opens up, add a checkmark beside "Prevent App Nap"
    Restart the application
    This fixed all my performance issues.

  • I have been using itunes for 6 years now, and was listening to my music the other day and noticed that some of my songs were stopping short of finishing.

    I have been using itunes for 6 years now, and was listening to my music the other day and noticed that some of my albums songs were stopping short of finishing. They just stop and go to the next song. Any solutions? 

    I have experienced the same problem on my my iPad1, my former iPhone 4 my laptop and even my new iPhone5  though I had really hoped that the new phone and IOS would solve the problem.  About 5% of the songs are affected and the stoppage can range from seconds short to a minute and a half.  The file shows more of the music left, but it stops playing and goes to the next song.  Very aggravating.  Appears to happen on purchased and uploaded music.
    Any help Apple?

    i have been using iphone 4 for 3 months now. suddenly stopped working

    Does the phone still charge when you use the wall adapter?
    If yes, charge it for about 10 min, then try to do a reset by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again.
    If this does not work, try to connect to your computer in recovery mode, explained here: iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to restore
