Contacts on Macbook Pro

Contacts on Macbook Pro showing my husband and my contacts using our e-mail addresses to icloud - this just happened today! Neither one of us uses same iCloud email addresses - we had to create them because some Web sites could not get mail us with our Comcast regular email addresses.

How can I straighten it and have just my own Contacts and not my husband?

I don't know exactly what you describe, if this is just a guess.

If you are both signed in iCloud on your Mac using the same AppleID, then contacts will be synchronized. You should have an AppleID separated for each of you.

If you want to continue to use the same iCloud account, disable the Contacts in one or two icloud the user preferences system account.

Otherwise, simply edit your contact cards in order to take into account what you want in it.

  • MacBook Pro has started to randomly stop when it is on battery since the upgrade to El Capitan

    I have a MacBook Pro (15 inch, early 2011) which works very well on the Mountain Lion for a long time. I finally got round to upgrading to El Capitan last week: directly to 10.11.6. A few days later he just powered down without warning while I was working. He was so very well for a few days, but then made several times in the last 48 hours.

    I am moderately sure it happens only when it is on battery (it did not in the past hours 8 while that plugged). Whenever it happens, that there is no warning and the Mac then fine restarts (manually) - Although the clock resets always in 1970 until he can contact an NTP server. One of the curious side effects is that my PostScript fonts were blank on the screen in Excel for a few reboots yesterday but then OK once again!

    No hardware has changed. Major software change is only El Capitan and possibly an iStat Menus update.

    I have reset PRAM and SMC. I ran the short AHT. I disassembled the machine and clean the fans. they were OK, but the problem seems to occur when the Mac is hot.

    Spotlight and Time Machine sometimes seemed to be struggling for the upgrade, and I also saw rpcsvchost with 100% of a core for a while. The machine feels sometimes slow - but for the last 8 hours, it was very good. The only model that I put in place, is that it seems to occur only on battery; It's even happened then that the Dock (etc.) were loading after logging in after an unexpected shutdown.

    The other thing common is in the newspapers every time:

    Cause of previous stop:-128

    I scanned a number of related posts to aspects of it, but do not look at who blames El Capitan rather than material. Yet, many people reported this kind of problem after the upgrade... Coincidence?

    Any ideas?

    Thank you.

    Cause of previous stop:-128

    A negative stop code generally indicates a hardware failure. Have the Apple to assess your Mac. The fix may be as simple as a spare battery.

  • MacBook Pro 2011 died following upgrade to el Capitan.

    Maxed out 2011 (with built-in dvd) 15 "MacBook Pro DIED after El Captain upgrade."

    I tried SMC and variations on this theme that you find on the web and in the brains of friends.

    Green light is on the power plug, never falters, change or flashes.

    After all, computer is still dead and dormant.

    Hi, bobfromhampton berries!

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple. After reading your post, I understand that your MacBook Pro is not on as planned; the MagSafe power adapter displays a green light, but the computer itself will not feed. I rely on my Mac every day, so I definitely want to make sure that yours does not work as expected.

    Reset the SMC has been a great step in this situation. Since it did not help to get power from the computer, I recommend you put the computer in a service provider authorized Apple or Apple Retail Store for an inspection. You can find places, find contact information and define the reserves by visiting the following Web site.

    Initially, you Mac Pro came with an SSD.

    Just what failure symptoms are you having? Maybe your SSD did not fail.

    If necessary and if yo are up to it you can replace the SSD yourself

  • Network with the MacBook Pro 15 "problems

    My new MacBook Pro (15-inch, mid-2015 retina) has 16 GB memory MHz DDR3.

    2.8 GHz Intel Core I & and an AMD Radeon R9 M370x PCie, in addition to an integrated

    Chipset Intel Iros Pro model. I am running OS X El Carolina Version 10.11.6, with 12 Parallels and Windows 7 for a few

    the company's programs, but I mainly work on the Mac side.

    An intermittent connection problem became constant after a week of using the computer.  My router DLink DSL (model 2750B) is two feet away from the computer.  In the system preferences / iCloud, I get "There was an error connecting to server Apple ID" my MacPro, iPad Samsung Galaxy S7 and Air 2 all connect with the same router wireless without any problem. (All my OTHER computers connected also with the same Apple ID and password without problem.  IMac 2012, MacPro, 2012 MacBook Pro, iPad 2 and the new iPad 2 Air)) I have a screenshot of the error message "None of your preferred networks are available" and in the same time to a list of all available networks, including my own.  Several times, I click on my network and get the response "the xxxxxxnetwork could not be contacted."

    I solved problem with Verizon, my provider, yesterday, and the routine test found that I have an intense tone, but the computer could not complete the test routine.  I ran "Diagnoses" several times this evening - this is after 23:00, and the report suggests that I will review wi - if recommended (fact), that I have a crowded WiFi channel (almost anyone else is in the building at this late hour) and I have to reboot the router (I did several times) and that maybe I should join a Wi - Fi network network that is associated with the Internet (like mine that works for all other devices.)

    Any suggestions on how to solve problems, or I would return the computer.  It's beautiful, and I spent a lot of time updating, installation, customization, before this stop of a Wi - Fi.  I had to buy a new router, but tests with Verizon made me doubt that a new router would solve this problem.

    Thanks for all the wisdom and strategies.  Maggie2012

    Hello maggie2012,

  • Is it possible to have the data stored in a set of a version of the iphone on a macbook pro?

    I have a game (canton) on my iPhone 5s and I would play on my mac because of the larger screen. The same edition of the games is available on a Macbook pro, but it will not save the data from my iPhone and it shows as two separate games. Is there a way to get around this? (If no, Apple, I'd really that if your company might consider it in the next updates)

    As Apple is not the developer of this game, Apple has nothing to do with how it works. Contact the developer to see if it is possible to do what you want. If this isn't the case, suggest that they they feel.
