I just wanted to thank everyone for the great suggestions you have made. Gives me a lot to research before my next class with these seniors. I sincerely doubt _any_ of them have so many photos that they would exceed the Apple offer of $.99 cents a month and since I see definite advanages to...

The seniors at a class I volunteered to give once a week have raised the dreaded subject of Photos. (Dreaded by me at least as there are so many choices to be made on Photos on the iPhone and on Photos on their Macs). Several of them have very old iPhones with only, what, 15? GB of space and...

iPhone to iPhone text messages My wife and I both have iPhones: an iPhone 5 and an iPhone 6. Occasionally, in the middle of exchanging a series of text message with another iPhone user, we will notice that now and again the other party's text bubble will show as green, not blue. We...

Re: Lost all contacts on my iPhone 6 Wow! This really weird. I have NO idea what just happened. As you suggested, with my iPhone 6 in front of me and while reading your reply on my MB Pro, I scrolled to the bottom of Settings > iCloud > and tapped Sign Out and when I saw the alert that said...

Re: Lost all contacts on my iPhone 6 This is going to sound like I am dense, Randy, but how exactly do I do that? If I go to Settings > iCloud, I see no way to actually delete anything. I can turn off iCloud Drive, but that's not what you mean, is it? I have looked all through the settings...

Re: Lost all contacts on my iPhone 6 Contacts are still all there in iCloud, including the new one I added which did not appear on the iPhone. When I go to Settings > iCloud > Contacts then toggle Contacts off then back on again, I get no alerts or requests to merge, etc. Should I? I then...

Lost all contacts on my iPhone 6 Here's my gear and the OS I am running. iMac, 2009, OS 10.10.1 MacBook Pro Retina, 2013, OS 10.10.1 iPhone 6, iOS 8.1 iPad Mini, 2010, iOS 8.1 After successfully upgrading from an iPhone 5 to an iPhone 6, I had all my contacts on my iPhone. I added a new...

I have the latest version of iOS for my Mini iPad, but as I noted, double-clicking the Home button with a locked screen produces nothing. Is this a preference one has to choose somewhere??? Many thanks.

After launching and starting to listen to iTunes on my former iPad, five minutes later when the iPad locked, I could double click on the Home button and at the top of the screen, controls appeared for increasing/decreasing the volume, stopping the track, etc. That feature is no longer present...

Receiving no reply and hoping that I would do no permanent damage, I deleted the iPod folder and its contents which I found using Devon's EasyFind and then sync'ed only iPhoto Albums, and _not_ Events or Faces to my iPad I was pleased to see that it worked. The contents of each Album in iPhone...

Just a "bump" hoping that one of you who offered advice will advise me on whether I have identified the correct iPod file to delete. Also, I now realize that the URL I posted for that screen shot somehow got corrupted. Here it is again: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1597869/Finder.jpg...

At first I thought What do they mean by: well let me know when you've tried removing the iPod Photo Cache folder. So, using Devon’s Easy Find, I searched my iMac HD for >Photo cache< and found this: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1597869/Photo%20Cache.jpg When I chose Open, this was revealed in...

Sorry to have been so slow to respond to your last post, Pocobear; been on the road. To answer your question: yes. I have TM running and I do a full clone backup once a week using CCC. I am missing a beat here. Could you explain a bit what you mean by >you don't have to use iTunes, you...
