Back up iPhone to iCloud and Macbook Pro?
I recently had to restore my iPhone, and it was from my MacBook Pro cause I don't know how to restore it from iCloud. Is there a way to back it up on both devices?
Well I haven't updated my signature. I think all of my contacts got swiped from iCloud when I was trying to sync them all to my iPhone, Macbook Pro, and iPad 2. So I'm hoping if I restore, they will come back. How do I restore from iCloud?

Everything is updated!! iPhone, iPad, iTunes and MacBook Pro... All I am trying to do is drag content from my iTunes Library to the devices. iTunes gets stuck EVERY single time! What usually triggers the Non-Sense is when I am adding a 2nd file!
Why does iTunes SUCK??
1) Many items greyed out in the menu bar, for well over 2 years, maybe more!
2) I Can't drag more than one piece of content from your iTunes library to any device (iPhone, iPad)
If you do it gets stuck for HOURS and HOURS in "Preparing To Update" and the little activity circle never completes, ever!!
I used to be able to drag over 1000 tunes, movies, etc. go have breakfast come back and it would all be on my device!!
Can't do it anymore, one song at a time, maybe an album at a time, or one movie, and that is it!!
If you do a 2nd item the other items stop loading and never continue!!
This is so BAD, I don't understand how they don't have this fixed yet!!
Please tell me I am not the only one!!
...and If I am tell me how to fix it!
Very appreciated,

If my iphone, ipad, MAC and macbook pro are all linked, and then I upgrade only my ipone to IOS 7.0, does that have an effect on the linking to my other MAC products. It seems my calendar has lost a lot of information since the upgrade.
If you purchased Lion for your iMac, just log into the Mac App Store from your MacBook using the Apple ID under which you purchased Lion and go to the Purchases page. You will be able to download and install Lion there.
searching the internet i found a link to upgrtade to 10.7
The only place you get get Lion is from the Mac App Store. If you found some other site, that was an illegal copy and almost certainly tied to someone else's Apple ID and hence unusable by you. If the link was just to the Mac App Store, see above.
As to the problem with synchronization to iCloud, that's not a 10.6 question, so I'd suggest you take up that specific issue in either the Lion or iCloud forums, providing full details, and someone there can probably help you sort things out.

How do i sync photos from iphone over icloud to macbook pro?
I am totally confused as to why photos taken on my iphone or ipad do not sync over icloud to my MacBook Pro.
If I sync manually I end up with everything else such as calendar and contacts duplicated.
How can I get the photos to sync over icloud?Photos taken on one device will sync to all devices via photo stream providing that all the devices are logged into the same iCloud account and photo stream is enabled on each of those devices.

Synch iPhone, Exchange 2003 AND MacBook Pro (SL) contacts and diary
I am considering buying an iPhone. I need to synchronise contacts and diaries. I am unable to synch my MBP (SL) to my work server as it's Exchange 2003 not 2007, I understand the iPhone will synch to both, and many colleagues do synch their iPhones at work. So far so good; once I've synched the iPhone in that way, can I then synch it to the MPB, either via wi-fi, USB or BT, so that all 3 are synchronised. During my web researches, one poster said that formerly this was not possible, but now it is with the most recent iPhone software. Has anyone out there done this successfully?
The native mail client in Snow leopard only supports exchange 2007 (and that doesn't work properly at present)
If you want to connect to exchange 2003 you either need entourage or you can use mail.app if IMAP is enabled on exchange

How do I sync downloaded PDF files in iBooks between my iPhone, iPad, and MacBook Pro?
I've combed the forums. I can't sync through iTunes. These PDF files don't show up. I've downloaded tech manuals for gear I have via manufacturer's websites. I can't populate them across my devices. I have some in iPhone, some on iPad. I have an iPhone 5, iPad2, and MacBook Pro running current software as of 11:22 AM 13 MAR 2014. Nothing has worked so far in the standard methods.
Help!I agree in theory.
Apple is very protective of copy written material, but even I have shoe-horned copy written papers into iBooks by using copy & paste. This is the only reason I can see for the lack of user friendliness in iBooks. You may have noticed that removing it from iTunes also removed the ability to edit any "get info" content - something I could do when books were within iTunes.
I like the ePub format. I can produce a very nice looking book with pictures and it looks great in iBooks. If I produce it on my Mac and use ePub into iBooks, I can then sync to my devices that way. For a really nice product this is a great option.
But. I can send the same product to Kindle and keep it synced to all devices. Or I can add to kindle from one of my other devices and get it to sync also. Obviously I made my choice and it works.
If you find a route via iBooks, please publish. Many other Apple users are frustrated by the lack of iBook flexibility since iOS 7 update. -
How can I have contacts on iPhone show up on iPad and MacBook Pro? All are backed up to iCloud.
Is it possible for all contacts to appear on all 3 of my Apple devices regardless of on which device they are entered? I have an iPhone 5, iPad 2 and MacBook Pro; I'd like to see the same contacts on all. All three devices already back up to iCloud. Thanks!
No you haven't misunderstood if you have those settings on. The contacts on your phone should automatically sync to the other devices. They should also be viewable/editable at https://www.icloud.com
The following link to an Apple Support troubleshooting document may have something that will help: Get help using iCloud Contacts - Apple Support -
how do i erase a corrupt contact list from iCloud,iPhone, iPad and MacBook Pro and restore Address Book backup to all devices and cloud?
I saved a corrected, most up to date version of my master Address Book Contacts as a back-up on my Mac Book Pro.
then in an effort to "simplify my life" i attempted to sync my I phone contacts - ( pre clean-up version) with my clean list on Mac Book Pro, New I pad and newly available icloud. DUH!! Using iTunes to do the sync caused the clean MacBOOK Pro list to be commingled with the dirty iphone contacts. amd now the whole mess is in the cloud.
I need to clear out the contaminated lists from all iplaces, and startover with Back-up on my macbook pro. BUT HOW???
Help
KarenI had exported an address book backup: abbu
so since i wrote, i have found my way into the cloud: selected all entries - deleted them all from the cloud.
This wiped out contacts on my iphone and i pad, and MBP, as well as on the cloud. I then imported the abbu back into my now empty address book.
To repopulate the crowd, i selected all in my address book and created a single card vCard for export to my desktop. I then dragged that vcard into my empty cloud. Now my cloud has the same clean contacts as my MBP addressbook. The cloud then pushed the clean contacts into my empty ipad and iphone contacts.
I had to go back to Address Book>preferences>Accounts and Add an I cloud account - but if you accidentally create a second i cloud account - all of a sudden your address book will duplicate itself. I quickly reversed it by deleting one of the icloud accounts in my Address Book>preferences>Accounts.
I created a new entry on my MBP and it is now on all devices and in cloud
I also created a new entry on my iPhone and it is now in the address book on my MBP.
I feel empowered!!

Hello Sunil Gubbi,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
From your post I understand that you'd like to know on how to access your files on iCloud Drive. Please take a look at the information below on how to access the files.
You can access your files in iCloud Drive any of these ways:
Using any supported web browser, you can go to iCloud Drive or iWork for iCloud beta at iCloud.com. In iWork for iCloud beta, you can find your Pages, Numbers, and Keynote files.
On your Mac with OS X Yosemite, you can go to iCloud Drive in Finder.
On your PC with Windows 7 or later and iCloud for Windows 4.0, you can go to iCloud Drive in File Explorer.
On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 8, you can access your files from Apple apps like Pages, Numbers, and Keynote, or any apps that support iCloud Drive.

Photos application for Mac Instructions that might help!
On your iPad,iPhone keep the iCloud on in settings for Photos.
if you have not opened the New Photos application yet to have it transfer your photos from iPhoto let it Transfer the Pictures.
once you have all the pictures from iPhoto to Photos then in Photos go to Preferences
there is general and iCloud tab and go to the iCloud and only uncheck the iCloud button that will make it so it doesn't sync with your iPhone and iPad for Photos.
Then in Photos go up to View and press show sidebar because with that view you can move your pictures easier to albums snd delete or move any pictures or make new albums
when you are all done with moving around your pictures or whatever go back to Preferences and turn on iCloud and make sure you have the optimize Mac Storage and then you are done! I hope this makes sense and works for you! here are the 2 pictures I'm talking about in settings -
ICloud Sync problems on iMac and MacBook Pro
When I add files to my iCloud/pages folder on my iMac, those files will not download on my MacBook Pro. When I add files to iCloud/pages folder on my MacBook Pro, those files will not download on my iMac. The files do show up on iCloud.com. I am using the same apple id on both computers. If I create a file on my iMac it shows up on my MacBook Pro but there is a cloud with a down pointing arrow next to it, but it never downloads. Vice versa is true if creating files on my MacBook Pro. If I create a folder on iCloud drive (iCloud/Folder) and put files in it they seem to sync properly, but files in subfolders created inside iCloud/Pages are the ones that do not sync properly. This makes iCloud Drive very unreliable for me. Help please? Thinking of going back to Google Drive to keep my files in sync across my iMac, MacBook Pro, iPhone 6, and iPad Air.
I have the exact same problem. iCloud drive on my iMac and macbook pro contain some of the same files, but not all.
Files that haven't synced are several days old rather than weeks to months old, so possibly this is a verrrry slow sync issue hopefully. -

I'm trying to pair my iPhone 4 with my MacBook Pro and it is saying my MacBook Pro is not supported. I just bought this thing and it's telling me that it isn't supported???
Do you mean Bluetooth?
If you are trying to activate your iPhone you need to use iTunes.
There's no need to "pair" an iPhone with a Mac. Syncing, restoring, backing up, apps/ music / photos etc., is all done with iTunes.
