I have 3 apple systems.. Mac, Macpro, and IPad.. I have a seperate e-mail account set up of each but facetime is still acting like it is calling itself on the Mac.. do you have to have seperate appleID on each system?

You don't need 3 separate Apple IDs, but you do need to set up each device with a unique email address for Facetime to communicate between the devices.  You can go to Settings > Facetime and add another email address for each device.

  • Has anyone had a problem with Illustrator lagging behind one letter when you're typing? For example, when I type "apple," the "a" doesn't appear until I type the "p." I only have one window open, and I restarted, but it's still acting strangely.

    Hi Swampxiix,
    How many programs do you have open while you're working in Illustrator? Do you have a lot of layers or art boards?
    It could be that your computer was being slowed by too many programs, or a complex design file. The age of your computer could also be a culprit.

  • My wife and I each have our own apple ID's which we use on our own iPhones and iPads. We share an iMac. Is there a way of enabling Facetime on the iMac to accept calls to either of our IDs without the need to login as that particular user?

    no, when using facetime you log in with the apple id you want people to reach you at, so unless you both agree to share one apple id for all the facetime you do, it will be necessary for you to logout and login each time you use the application.

    Hi Ken,
    Wow, I've logged into adobe and never seen your response until now.
    I need to make the forums more of a daily stop I guess.
    Thank you for your response, When I go to the Archives, it states I have none. In addition, previously when I'd tried to move items to the archive, they just disappeared  
    Currently my desktop is not connecting at all, Everytime I connect, it's states "We have now logged you out" and requests I login again.
    I have of course rebooted,
    Gone into taskmanager, killed all the relevant threads,  tried again to login through the desktop, no luck, I'll have to uninstall it, make sure the threads are killed, then reboot it and then reinstall it, but I've not had the time to do that.
    On another note, and just as a point of reference, myself, personally, I hate these "cloud" file repositories (not to be confused with adobe cloud services which I love) but the file repositories themselves imho, are a blackhole of resource usage when one doesn't/isn't using them,
    Is there a way we can use it more of a "ftp" sort of thing, when I want to I can  put files there?  There is no way to "Download" the repository, no way to download the folders.. only individual files and then it takes I think three different steps before the download starts.. I find this very inhibiting.  Just an fyi. for what it's worth.
    Please, feel free to contact me,
    I'm on g+ chat [email protected]

I can't contact customer support because I have a PC and there is a serial number of an apple device required.Can anyone help please?

    You can't setup (create) an iCloud account using a PC. You must use an Apple device, a Mac or an iPhone etc. Once you have created an account you can sign in from your PC.

  • I have a Airport Time Capsule 2T, I would like to know if it is possible to backup all my apple divides (iMac, iPhone and iPad)?

    I have a Airport Time Capsule 2T, I would like to know if it is possible to backup all my apple divides (iMac, iPhone and iPad)?

    The iMac can back up to the Time Capsule, but iOS devices like the iPhone and iPad back up to either iTunes on your Mac....or....to iCloud.
    If the iPhone and iPad back up to iTunes on your Mac, then when the iMac backs up the iOS backups are sent to the Time Capsule as well.  So, the iPhone and iPad back up indirectly to the Time Capsule.
    The iPhone and iPad cannot back up directly to the Time Capsule.
    For more information on iOS backups, see this Apple support document:
    Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes - Apple Support

  • TS3899 Suddenly on both my iPhone and iPad I cannot access my AOL mail. They tell me my user name and password are incorrect.  Yet, I have no problem with other devices in accessing.  I have deleted and reinstalled my account information etc.  Any ideas?

    Suddenly on both my iPhone and iPad I cannot access my AOL mail.  It tells me my user name or password are incorrect.  Yet I have no trouble accessing from other devices.  This occurred randomly in the middle of the night.  I'd done nothing different or unusual.  I've tried re-starting both devices, tried deleting and re-installing my account information.  Any suggestions?

    Hmm... looks like this is an issue for that email provider for some reason.
    A user in a bt.com forums recommends turning off Push Emails settings.

    Coudln't hurt to try it and see if the issue resolves itself.

  • HT5624 I've opened up iTunes and went to buy a song, but then it came up with a box saying "this is the first time you are purchasing an item on this computer" even though my computer is authorised. What do i do?

    I've opened up iTunes and went to buy a song, but then it came up with a box saying "this is the first time you are purchasing an item on this computer" even though my computer is authorised. Then when i put in my password it takes me to the security questions and i dont know what the answers are. What do i do?

    A computer can be authorized to play content purchased using a particular Apple ID (the iTunes Store account).  However, being authoized to play content is not directly related to being able to buy content using that Apple ID. 
    For example, a parent may purchase content for a child and authorize the child's computer to play that content, but that does not mean the child is able to purchase content using that Apple ID.
    If this is your Apple ID, you should know the answers to the security questions.  If you do not, you'll need to contact Apple iTunes Store customer support

  • I backed up then erased 118 gigs worth of photos, but my storage still says I'm full.  I emptied the trash and rebooted but my computer won't recognize the empty space.  What gives?

    I backed up then erased 118 gigs worth of photos, but my storage still says I'm full.  I emptied the trash and rebooted, but my computer won't recognize the empty space.  What gives?  I erased all my iPhoto pictures from the pictures folder in Finder so I could restore a backup from my Time Capsule.  When I try to restore the library, I get a message that there's not enough room on my computer to restore.  I have a Macbook Pro with 250 gig hard drive.  I would greatly appreciate some help.  Thanks!

    If you're trying to add a large amount of data all at once, and you get an alert of insufficient space, then from the menu bar, select

  • I sync my iphone with my office computer, but what I really would like to do is syncing only the calendars (because my secretary uses them to set up new apppointments), but syncing all the rest on my home computer. Is it possible without losing apps or mu

    I sync my iphone with my office computer, but what I really would like to do is syncing only the calendars (because my secretary uses them to set up new apppointments), but syncing all the rest on my home computer. Is it possible without losing apps or music?

    Although not recommended, yes.
    Disable automatic syncing when the iPhone is connected with iTunes on each computer.
    The only item you will have selected for syncing with iTunes on your computer at work will be Calendars, which is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes. Nothing else will be selected under the various tabs for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes on your computer at work. You will get a warning message that your iPhone is associated with another iTunes library on a different computer which you can ignore when syncing calendars/calendar events only with iTunes on your computer at work.

  • How to repair disc on second partition iMac 27? 10.6.8, but second is still 10.6.3.  Can I use the original 10.6.3 install disc to start, and then go to the side needing repair?

    Partitioned iMac 27, Sept. 2010.  Verify disc on HD2 says "corrupted,  needs repair," unspecified.  "Use install disc to repair."  HD2 is isolated from Internet since birth.  HD 10.6.8, but HD2 is still 10.6.3.  Can I use the original 10.6.3 install disc to start, and then go to the side needing repair, without a problem?
    Part 2:  After 4 years, suddenly when HD2 is revived from sleep, it makes an Internet connection, all settings are the same, Network shows Ethernet is unplugged, but the indicator from modem shows connection.  Maybe connected to first part of my question, but maybe not.
    Thank you.

    No; but then, I've not had occasion to use TDM. I've been using firerwire drives for over 10 years, both FW400 and FW800, with no issues except a bit of instability using a B&W G3 machine.
    TDM should be safe. Using cautious, manual copying of files from the Target machine to the Host machine should not result in unexpected loss of files or damage to the Target drive's directories. It should behave exactly the same as if it were an external (to the Host) firewire drive.
    •  I don't suppose there is anything I can do to 'put back' lost items from a separate Time Machine drive which has an up to date backup on it.
    There is probably a way to do that - seems to me that's one of the reasons for a Time Machine volume.
    On the other hand, if the Time Machine volume is rigidly linked to the now-absent OS on the original drive, there may be no way to effectively access the files in the TM archive.
    I know that using a cloned drive would work well in this instance.
    I have no experience with Time Machine, so perhaps someone who has will chime in with suggestions.
    With the machine in TDM with the other machine, have you tried running Disk Utility to see if you can effect repairs to the drive?

  • My icloud emails arent arriving most of the time and a few days ago my iphone and ipad started showing "Can't Get Mail" box. This has not happened before since I set up the iclud email address with the purchase of my ipad about a month ago.

    That's one of the weird things.. it recognizes it maybe 10% of the time. And usually, only after I do the two-button reset. Problem is.. since it won't charge above 2%, anytime I try to do a restore or anything like that using iTunes, my device shuts off and I lose whatever progress I'd made.
    So, an update... after reading through a bunch of similar complaints (there are literally 1000's of them so there's NO WAY this isn't somehow ios7 related, thanks a lot APPLE ) I decided to try a restore in recovery mode. After 3 hours and several disconnections... I ended up having to just set it up as a new iPad, as the restore did nothing. Weirdly though... as I was doing the restore in recovery mode.. I noticed I'd gotten up to a 10% charge.. higher than it's been since September, so after setting it up as a new device, I turned it off and plugged it in using the wall charger. 2 hours later and I was up to 38%. Still not great, as my iPad, before ios7 could've fully charged twice in the amount of time it took for me to now get 28% more of a charge. And that's with a fully cleaned out device.. so that really ***** and I'm now more confused than ever.
    But I'm gonna leave it overnight charging and see what I come up with tomorrow. Sadly, when I paid $600 for it in February, I never expected to have to play "wait and see" with it...
