Voice Overage.......Overcharges...FLEECING....Handing all of our Data to Obama Govt

I've been a Verizon Wireless customer since the summer of 2005.Every once in a while over the years, I would notice that they would for no apparent reason, double and even at times....TRIPLE my bill.My latest bill is no exception.$142 this month, along with a claim that my voice data has risen in the last three months, when I know FULL WELL that it hasn't.Thankfully, my two year contract is over, and the years of FLEECING that these people engage in will no longer affect me.It makes me remember why I cancelled their land line service back in 2008:They would slam my bill with companies who I had never even heard of before.Then we have the issue of them giving our cell phone data over to the OBAMA government as a mean to spy on Americans.

FYI All cell companies are sending info to the NSA
Also, I highly doubt a multi billion dollar company is slamming customer just to increase revenue. They would not be number one for long.

Cant Report That Noisy Line Affects All Of Our Nei...

With the BT fault system I can't report that a very noisy line affects all of our neighbours as well as us.
At least two of us have reported it individually, but it doesn't get investigated as the line check says it's OK.
When an engineer came some time ago he said that we really need extensive rewiring to our neighbourhood, but it's not likely to ever happen.
I can just use a dialup modem for a few kB/s email use, but there's no chance of broadband (which is at the exchange, at the nearest village).
Neighbours and I find it almost impossible to hear some callers, and don't chat at all. I have an amplified phone, but the noise gets boosted as well to mask the voice signal. For making calls I always now use Vodafone by mobile, which has an excellent signal (but only 2G so no use for Internet).
Because broadband from BT won't work, at least five houses have gone for satellite providers, even though they are slow and expensive.
Is there any way to get BT to solve a collective problem, rather than just ignore individuals whose needs must seem insignificant?

Help!!! My husband by accident synced his account under my account and has merged all of our contacts. In the process of fixing the mixup has deleted contacts on both phones. How do I restore the contact list from the original contact list.

I hope that you aren't complaining about dropped calls INSIDE your condo because no amount of switching or upgrading devices will solve that.
VZW will not guarantee service inside of any structure. There are just too many factors. If the problem is inside then you might want to look at one of the following:
1.) Network Extender (may cause issues for others in a condo or apartment style setting)
2.) A Google Voice Number (Free with a Gmail email address), downloading Google Hangouts Dialer and forwarding your calls to the GVN so that you can make and receive calls over Wi-Fi.

HT204074 All of our devices have the same apple id (2 iphone 4's & 1 Windows Comp..) How can we seperate them but also allow them to still use the same itunes account?

I tried to ask a similar question before, however did not understand our issues well enough to even form a comprehensive question and the kind replies.
I apologize, unfortunately I've yet to resolve our problem.
All of our devices are under the same Apple ID & password (an IPhone 4s, an IPhone 4, and a Dell Laptop that uses Windows 7.) How in the world can
we separate them (so we can both use our free 5GB under the iCloud storage that each of our IPhone's offer, but "also" still use the same shared ITunes
account?
As it stands right now, my son's phone (iPhone 4) is set up under our Apple ID & pw-which enables him to use the free 5gb's under the iCloud.
I cannot take advantage of the Free 5gb's iCloud on my IPhone 4s, because it's all "my info." on my son's phone (my email address & pw=what we've always used for our shared ITunes acct.)
A big fat mess I know, and don't even want to confuse things by asking about these SMTP's...1 thing at a time!
Not sure if it is still on his phone, however in trying to resolve this issue last time I set him up with a MobileMe address. I believe I entered my info back into his phone because it created a bigger mess!
Thank you in advance for any suggestions/help! It's taken me some time to gather the patience and courage to ask for help again in resolved this
issue!

I don't know if I'm asking this all in a way that can be understood? Thanks ED3K, however that part I do understand (in the link you provided!)
What I need to know is "how" I can separate or rather create another Apple ID for my son-who is currently using "my Apple ID?" If there is a way to let him keep "all" his info on his phone (eg-contacts, music, app's, etc.) without doing a "reset?') Somehow I need to go into his phone's setting-create a new Apple ID and possibly a new password so he can still use our combined iCloud & Itunes account?
Also then letting me take back my Apple ID & password, but again allowing us (my son and I) to use the same iCloud & Itunes account? Does that make more sense??? I'm sincerely trying to get this cleared up once and for all----just need guidance from someone who has a true understanding of the whole Apple iCloud/Itunes system!
Thanks again for "anyone" that can help me!!!

HT204053 I have one apple ID that my entire family has been using. How do I create new apple ID's for each of us and move the appropriate content to each new ID from the original apple ID now that we all have our own devices?

I have been using one apple ID for 4 family members. Up until now it hasn't been a problem but now that we all have our own devices how do I create new apple ID's for each of us and them move the approprioate things from the original apple ID account to the new ones for each of us?

HT4436 My family has multiple iPhones. Can we use one Apple ID for all of our phones?

My family has multiple iPhones. Can we use one Apple ID for all of our phones?

If you use the same AppleID for iMessage and iCloud though, you will all be sharing the same message account and iCloud email account. You can use a common AppleID for purchased content, but each create your own unique AppleID for iMessage and iCloud so you each have your own private accounts for those services.

HT5622 I have been using one apple ID for my family as it makes it easier to manage itunes purchases/rentals on all of our devices. Now that my kids are getting old and my wife has recently purchased an Iphone, I can see that I need to change my strategy

I have been using one apple ID for my family as it makes it easier to manage itunes purchases/rentals on all of our devices. Now that my kids are getting old and my wife has recently purchased an Iphone, I can see that I need to change my strategy. I plan to add a few more iphones to the family very soon. What is your recommendation to manage all of our devices (iphones, itouch, apple tv) for my family? Can I continue to function with one apple ID or is it time to take the leep into attempting to manage multi-apple ID's?

There's a few ways of managing multiple devices on a single computer (and keeping seperate content on each). The following document is worth checking through:
How to use multiple iPods, iPads, or iPhones with one computer

I buy all of our movies on our apple TV that is associated with my apple ID. I want to put a movie on my wife's new iPad but it gives me a 90 day warning that she won't be able to download anything. Do we really have to buy two copies of the same movie?

Do we really have to buy two copies of the same movie? There has to be a way for one family to share movies on all of our devices.

Ahh, thank you! What a pain in the neck. I figure I must have been signed into his account at some other point in time, maybe after... watching a movie..? [Though, that'd be the iTunes store, right? Not the App Store.] Anyway, some situation must've occured where I absentmindedly updated and iPhoto is now tied up with his account.
I'll go ahead and contact support to see if they can get me sorted. I suppose I can just ask him for his password, but.. oh, you know, it's a temporary solution and I guess I was just hoping to easily get iPhoto properly associated with myself again. Thank you!

HT4859 Help! My whole family shares one apple id and my daughter deleted all of our contacts from her phone, unknowingly deleting them from ours too! I need to find out how to restore an archived copy.

Help! My whole family shares one apple ID and one of us deleted a large amount of contacts from our phone, not realizing that they would be deleted from all of our devices. Is it at all possible to restore an archive of our contacts? Is there such a thing?

icloud is designed so that only one user uses it to keep his/her devices in sync. Problems such as yours occur when multiple users use the same account - icloud is not designed for that.
If a user is using your account, they should get their own account and disconnect from your account.
To create a new icloud account, go to
http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
Once they have a new account, they should go to Settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Delete Account. This only disconnects the device from that account, no data is lost on icloud. Then enter the account ID that you want to use.
Note that an ID used for iCloud does not have to be the same ID used for iTunes. You can all keep the same iTunes store Apple ID to share purchases, but for iCloud, use different IDs.

I upgraded itunes software and it synced all of our iphones in our family. We are now all receiving each others texts. How do we unsync each others phones?

All of our phones got synced together after doing an Itunes upgrade on line. We are now receiving all of eachothers incoming and outgoing text messages. How do we unsync from each other's phones?

Settings > Messages > Send and Received > Uncheck any number/email that does not belong to the device
Check this setting on any device(s) using the same Apple ID

How can I stop iMessages from going to *all* of our devices?

As many households do, we share the same AppleID so that we can share apps and information easily. With iOS5, now we iMessage each other for free, BUT all other iMessages that we send to other iOS5 users are also blasted out to all other iOS5 devices. My husband doesn't want to see all my texts to other people, but now there is NO WAY to send a normal text to other iOS5 users...it will only go out as an iMessage. Is the only solution to get a separate AppleID for my husband and then buy all of our apps again for him? That would be a huge pain, essentially requiring him to erase his iPhone and iPad and start over. Or do I disable iMessages for him? Is there any way to distinguish between different users within the same AppleID?

Everyone can still use the same Apple ID. What you need to do is go into - "Settings" , "Messages", "Receive At", and add a different Email for each user for where they can be reached for messages at. Once you have added a new Email to each device delete the original Email that was there which should have been the same as your Apple ID. Then when you send a new message, send the message to the Email for that person that was just added to their iPhone. There is no need for each family member to create their own Apple ID just to use iMessage. Each family member would only need to create their own Apple ID if everyone wanted to use iCloud and not have all family members data, contacts, calendars, etc sync together. If you are also using FaceTime between iPhones do the the same thing in the FaceTime settings.

How can I remove the SCCM 2012 client and reinstall SCCM 2007 client on all of our computers

Hello All
We have bit of a problem. Our virtual SCCM 2012 r2 server was deleted and the back solution we had in place keeps failing.
We do have our sccm 2007 server still in place but its only role was imaging as we transferred roles from one to another.
My question is now our support needs to remote into pcs but cant because the CM12 server is gone. How can I remove the 2012 client from all of our companies computers and reinstall the CM07 client so we can remote into computers again.
Thanks in advance!
Phil
Phil Balderos

Run a ccmsetup /uninstall on the clients. You may need to run via PSExec. Then push out the SCCM 2007 client via the 2k7 console.
Cheers

Thanks Paul!
I have to do this on over 350 computers and 110 servers. How can I do it on a more massive scale?
Phil Balderos
I would check Torsten's approach first and see if the ccmsetup will uninstall the 2012 version. I'm not sure. Obviously the other way round is fine.
Using PSexec you can script this to call up a txt file of all your servers/computers and run the uninstall.
e.g.
for /f "tokens=*" %a in (computers.txt) do psexec \\%a %WINDIR%\ccmsetup\ccmsetup.exe /uninstall
If your account has privileges on all devices you won't need to add in any username/password credentials. Obviously only devices that are switched on and you have access to will run this.

How do i change my iCloud account on my iPhone? I want to change it to my husbands so all of our information syncs, but will this completely delete my iCloud account? and by doing this how will my phone change (such as contacts, photos etc.) ?

I want to change it to my husbands so all of our information syncs on to my iphone and our ipad, but will this completely delete my iCloud account? and by doing this how will my phone change (such as contacts, photos etc.) ?

Bad idea.
What information do you want to share, exactly? You can share contacts, reminders, and calendars with other iCloud users without the need for both of you to use the same iCloud account. You can authorize both phones to use apps purchased under the same Apple ID without sharing an iCloud account.
Sharing an iCloud account is a bad idea in general. There is too much opportunity for someone to damage or delete data that will affect both.

HT1688 Hello, my husband and myself share an email address. Therefore all of our iCloud information goes to each others devices. How can we fix this problem so that we both have seperate i Cloud accounts now that this is already established?

Hello, my husband and myself use the same e mail address. When I signed up for the icloud with an update, it combined all of our information on both of our iPhones. How can I get these two phones and information seperate again?
Thank you

Get separate IDs
RECEIVING MESSAGES INTENDED FOR OTHER DEVICES
This occurs if you are sharing the same Apple ID for imessages.
If you are receiving imessages intended for other devices you can fix this by going to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and do one of the following:
Uncheck the email address shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at" on both devices if they are iPhones; or
On one of the devices go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the Apple ID, sign out, then sign in with a different Apple ID. Note: you can continue to share an Apple ID for the iTunes & App store for purchasing if you wish; it does not need to be the same as the ID you use for iMessage, FaceTime, iCloud and other services.
To prevent merging of your calendars and contacts when syncing calendars and contacts if you are using the same Apple ID for the iCloud account, be sure to set up separate iCloud accounts on each phone with separated IDs. Remember that if you change your ID in iTunes & App store, that apps and other purchased content is forever linked to the ID that was used to download the apps and the apps can only be updated with the ID that was originally used to download them. To download content purchased previously downloaded with a particular ID then that ID needs to be used to download past purchases. If you want all apps to be connected with the same ID you need to delete those apps downloaded with the old ID and download them again with your current and if the apps in question were paid apps then you need to pay again.
