Why are there duplicates in my calendar?

Is it possible that you or someone copied them to that folder or an automated progress making a backup to that folder. Normally if you upload the photos then will be stored in your iPhoto library folder.

Why are there more contacts on my iOS device now that I turned on iCloud?

I use outlook and know how many contacts I have; I turned on iCloud for contacts and the number of contacts increased by over 300; how do I reconcile? I have over 6k contacts in outlook so not manually?

I have the same issue. there are more photos on my phone than on my computer. my old computer crashed so my new one has no photos at all. i havent synced it yet cause i dont want to lose all my photos. whats weird is that when i plug my phone into my mac, it only shows the pics from the camera roll on the phone. it doesnt show any albums or any of the photos from the "photos' option on the iphone.
im running a 2007 macbook with snow leopard 10.6.8, and an iphone 4s.
here, this is my camera roll, 340 photos. plus all the albums I've created. non of those albums show up to import to iphoto when i plug in the iphone.
and this is from the "photos'' option on the phone
its got photos going back to 2009. way more than the 340 it says i have. but non of those photos show up in iphoto, my computer has ZERO photos on it, and the last computer that did, died and is in the trash. so where are these photos being stored? it doesnt make since to me. and why dont they show up in iphoto for import?

Why are there duplicate results in the Open With menu?

I own an iMac with the latest version of OSX (I forget what it is). As you can see in this image, I am going to open an image using the Open With menu, and there are a lot of repeats. In addition to the repeats, some apps show up that no longer exist and some apps don't show up that still do exist. For example, I no longer have RockMelt on my operating system. I also don't have the version of Pixelmator listed: I trashed that version and installed a different version, but when I click on Pixelmator in the menu, it reverts to Preview because that version of Pixelmator no longer exists. This is a minor issue but it is really bothering me because whenever I want to open Pixelmator, I have to go through the whole process of clicking Other and browsing my applications folders to get to it. Any help would be EXTREMELY appreciated and I would reward you with imaginary cookies (Yum!).
Seriously though, I need help.

Boot in safe mode. This will cause certain caches maintained by the system to be rebuilt.
Safe mode is much slower to boot than normal.
When the login screen appears, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and test. There's no need to log in while in safe mode.
Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. In that case, ask for instructions.

HT1711 why are there duplicates sometimes and then when I go back in there gone?

I have noticed lately that some songs are now in duplicate. This does not always happen. Is anyone else having this problem?

Try to open the system menu via Alt+Space and see if you can resize that window.<br />
If that works then close Firefox to save the setting.

Why are there duplicate pictures on camera roll but none saving to photo stream?

My wife and I share an itunes account and when iCloud came out all her pictures were showing up on my photo stream (she does a lot of screen caps of cute animal pics to send to her friends) so to stop that I set her up with her own iCloud account. Now when she takes a picture, seconds after she takes it, a duplicate copy appears right beside it, but none ever go to her photo stream folder. What gives? At first I thought maybe she had HDR on, but it's not. Then I thought maybe I didn't have photostream on correctly but looking at it it all looks fine. It's running the latest version of iOS5. Is anyone else having a similar problem?

If your device has stopped adding photos to photo stream, save any photo stream photos that you want to keep on your device to the camera roll, then turn photo stream off (which will delete the photo stream photos from your device) and back on. That may get photo stream to function properly again.

Why are there duplicates to all my apps in the top left corner of my iPad?

I can only move the apps in the top left and they can go anywhere, even on other apps. It is only on the first page of apps.

See if this makes them return to normal.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

HT204150 Why are there contacts on my iPhone that are not on my Mac (syncing through iCloud)

Why are there some contacts on my iPhone (and my older Mac) that aren't getting synced onto my new MacBook?

First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.

Why are there 3 library folders on my MB Pro?

Why are there 3 library folders on my MB Pro? (1) in the HD folder; (2) in the system folder; (3) in the user folder?

Your home/Library folder contains support and preference files for you. It includes all your mail, if you use Apple Mail, as well as things like contacts, calendars, Safari bookmarks and caches, and so on. It also includes any fonts which you have installed for your user. 20GB seems a little high, but if you have a lot of mail/attachments, this could explain it.
The /Library folder contains support files (usually third-party) for all users. Adobe tends to put files in here, for example. It also includes iLife template/loop files, so you'll find GarageBand loops here, for example. Fonts which can be accessed by all users can be found here.
The /System/Library folder belongs to OS X, and contains support files for the system.
Don't delete any files from any of the folders unless you know what you're doing...

Why are there no iPhone 6 battery cases with a lightning input port for charging instead of a micro USB?

Why are there no iPhone 6 battery cases with a lightning input port for charging instead of a micro USB?
Does it have something to do with the MFI certification? Is micro USB just cheaper?
I don't want to have to carry around another cable and it seems like this would be a good product. What am I missing?

Valid point.
So can I ask why there are no MFI certified lightning female ports on battery cases? Or more so, does this certification even exist?
And why not?
This is a user-to-user technical support forum. There is no one here from Apple to answer "why". Again, I would recommend contacting the manufacturers or use the Contact Us link at the bottom right of every page for information on how to contact Apple directly.
I suspect that manufacturers may view the more standard microUSB charging port as a selling point. Those types of cables are cheaper and ubiquitous.

TS3899 I have an aol account and a gmail account, synced Ito my ipad2. I do not get email from senders on aol. It seems not to matter if they are in my contact list or not. Help, please.

I have email accounts at aol and gmail. Some senders are blocked when they try to send me email at aol. Both accounts are synced only ipad2. It doesn't seem to matter if they are in my contact list or not. Is there a setting I need to change? Please help. Thanks

They are on your iCloud mail, if you had that option activated on iCloud.

Why are there so many more choices on the USA iTunes Store? Surely having an iTunes account should let you access all itunes availability the world over? Also how do you request films/tv series to the UK itunes?

Why are there so many more choices on the USA iTunes Store? Surely having an iTunes account should let you access all itunes availability the world over?
Also how do you request films/tv series to the UK itunes? There's tv series I'd like but they're incomplete like The Batman & Xena Warrior Princess. And films theta aren't available for download but you can purchase in a store like HMV? Apple isn't doing itself any favours by secluding countries by their store. They'd make billions if you could just select the iTunes Store you want to search & purchase from just by signing in! If anything what they're doing is putting themselves into a corner, other companies like Samsung & HTC are already on too of them for innovation & ease of use. The people they're attracting are predominantly existing Apple users not new customers. What do you guys think?

It's not Apple's choice, they can only sell a particular item where the content provider/rights-holder has granted them a license to sell them. Content is licensed by the rights-holders to Apple on a country-by-country basis, each country therefore has to have its own store, and you have to be in a country to use its store - they want control over where their content is available.
You can try requesting that an item be added to the UK store via this page, but unless the rights-holder agrees to then Apple won't be able to sell it here : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

Why are there so many flash updates?

Why are there so many Flash updates… I have had two in the last week and at least one more since the start of the year. It seems to have really got silly this last 12 months, is Flash really that unsecure and unstable that it needs this many fixes and updates?
I know you can tick the install in background box when updating but I like to know what is going onto my computer and given Adobe's knack of crashing my system when using PS and AI I don't really want them silently installing anything.

99% of the time the update gets prompted by Youtube or BBC when videos won't play on there sites and I follow the links through them. You would like to think that big sites like these would not allow false links to malware to crop up, but it isn't out of the question. Next stop, up to date anti virus…..
As far as Youtube goes I thought they had adopted HTML 5 now as standard and didn't rely on Flash?
