I have given up on using Outlook 2010 with icloud. How can I use icloud to manage all of my calender and contacts?

I had been using Outlook 2010 synced to my iphone (4) and ipad and ipad2. It has not been a pleasant or successful endevor. I have a successful copy of my Calender and contacts on the icloud now. I am unable to connect to the icloud calender using my pc. I wish to disable the Outlook calender and contacts and only access the calender and contacts on the icloud. When I try to connect to the calender using icloud the message only tells me an error has occured and please send this info to Apple, but not provide any info on why it does not work. What do I need to do? Thanks

HT4929 can I use iCloud to transfer (sync) between iPhone 4G (OS 5) and a MBP runnibg 10.6.8?

Can I use iCloud to transfer (sync) between iPhone 4G (OS 5) and a MBP runnibg 10.6.8?...or must I upgrade to 10.7? Most contacts are on my iPhone from my former WIN machine running Outlook.

iOS 5 is for your iPhone. 10.7.2 or later, Lion, is for the computer. You can upgrade by clicking on the App Store icon in the Dock or Applications folder. Sign in with your Apple ID and password. Locate the Lion installer application. Purchase and download - $30.00.

I use an iPhone 5, and want to sync my phone calendar and contacts with Outlook 7 calendar and contacts; two problems--I now get dozens of new calendars every time, and my outlook calendar will not sync at all.; meaning that date entries on Outlook do not come across ot iPhone.

It is unusual for the calendar to sync and not the contacts in Outlook. I've worked with Outlook for years. You didn't answer what computer OS you are using. If it is Windows, have you tried to reset the sync history in iTunes? Do that by opening iTunes, go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and click on reset sync history. If you have done this and it doesn't help, then we can try and run scanpst.exe on your Outlook file and see if there are any errors. Search your computer for that file, however it normally resides in one of the Microsoft Office folders in the folder Program files. After that, you can see if it will sync.

Can I use ICloud as complete back up for my mac?

Can I use ICloud as a complete backup for my Mac Pro? Word Files, PDFs, Excel etc>?

No. iCloud is not a general file/document storage service. There are some alternative cloud-based services that provide this listed on Roger Wilmut's site here: http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/missing/inicloud3.html.

Back up all data.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select Change Settings for Keychain "login". In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
From the menu bar, select
Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
If the box marked Keep login keychain unlocked is not checked, check it.
Select
Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

How can I sync up MAC calendar And Contact List with MS Outlook?

What Mac do you running what version of OS X?

Using iCloud (for calendar and contacts) AND MobileMe for Keychain

Does anyone who's migrated to iCloud know if it's possible to sync Address Book and Calendar through iCloud and the Keychain through MobileMe (on a separate account)?
Situation is as follows:
I have two accounts - one MobileMe (which I use today for calendar and contact syncing) and an Apple ID (which I used for iTunes)
I wish to convert the iTunes account to an iCloud account
That leaves me with my un-converted MobileMe which I'd like to continue to use for Keychain syncing until Apple puts that functionality in iCloud or they retire MobileMe.
I guess - the nub of the question is - is it still possible to access the MobileMe preference pane and put in a different account when iCloud is up and syncing?
Thanks in advance, Jonathan.

SaltSeaShark,
I've looked at the iDisk and there's no way to do it automatically. However when you're back at your home iMac, you can copy the files that you find in ~/Library/Keychains onto your iDisk. Then when you're at your friend's iMac, you can copy the *.keychain files in your iDisk to the ~/Library/Keychain folder on your friend's machine (in the account that you're using).
That way - you can open your keychain locally - although it won't sync backwards and forwards. An alternative is to use a third-party product such as 1Password - of which there's an iPad app - as well as a web interface (when combined with Dropbox).
Hope that helps - Jonathan.

BB Link does not recognize Outlook as a source for calendar and contact sync

When setting up BB Link for my BB Classic it does not recognize Outlook 2013 (on Windows 7) as a source for calendar and contacts.

I know there are people who can and many who cannot, never saw a resolution yet, I hope someone who can will reply to your post so that is why I am replying this sends your post back up to the top. Here is a recent user who can but does have a issue: http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Link/Duplicate-Calendar-Entries/td-p/3108949 I wish I could do more but I do not use Outlook or BB Link.

I just upgraded to iOS7 and started using icloud with Outlook 2010. I dealt with switching over to only using icloud for my calendar, but now my calendar reminders are only randomly popping up which is very frustrating. They show up on my phone however. And under my calendar on my main page it doesn't show any appointments coming up. Any suggestions on a fix?

Hey Csound1,
Looks like we found a solution, it's Mickey Mouse but it works. After talking to two Apple Senior Advisors, this is the fix they came up with:
The first advisor after exploring it for awhile, came to the conclusion the way to get my calendars back local On my Mac with the alerts as I had then was to import the saved .ics files with my my 'dangerous email alerts' being removed then me manually re-adding them. I said that was a no go.
The second advisor, after speaking with me for awhile and trying a few things that we'd tried before said he'd do some work on his end and call me back. A couple of hours later he phoned back with a fix that I guess will have to do, his solution:
I had to go into Calendar-preferencs-accounts and create a Gmail calendar, quit and restart Calendar, I created a calendar in the gMail account. Then I was given the option in Calendar under File-New Calendar to create On my Mac local calendars. Next was to create local calendars with the same names as my iCloud calendars. Now I had to un-check all calendars but one, put Calendar in month view, command-click all the events for the given calendar and drag them to the new local calendar of the same name. I then had to repeat this for each of the calendars and for all 12 months of the year.
I'm not done yet but it seems to be working. As I said Mickey Mouse but doing the job. It seems creating another online calendar account was the only way to get the local On my Mac option, active again. What a pain in the a** this has been, I will repeat it again
iCloud is EVIL.

Sync only checked song and videos - not working

On my iTouch, the only way I can get music on it is manually or through a playlist. The "Sync only checked song and videos" will not work. Am I doing something wrong?

Under the 'Music' tab (when you connect the iPT, and under the 'Devices'), make sure that 'Sync all Music' is selected, not the 'Sync playlists' option.

Why remove sync to iTunes for calendar and contacts?

Why in the world would Apple remove the capability to sync your iphone's calendar, contacts and notes to your desktop via iTunes in Mavericks? I can see no benefit whatsoever. Do you really believe everyone wants to use iCloud? I don't care how strong your firewalls are and how well you encrypt data ... a dedicated and motivated hacker can get into your systems and Apple is a huge target.
I was just fine with syncing my calendar and contacts locally on my computer (not a huge target).
Please reinstate this very useful and convenient capability.

Do I really have to justify why the feature is useful? Just because you need updates every second and don't mind putting all the personal contact information for your friends and family on a server accessable to the internet and a world of hackers that would love to compromise a big target like iCloud doesn't mean everyone should have to. There are valid reasons to keep your information private and there was a perfectly useful option to make that easy. There is a huge list of top tech companies that have been breached by determined and motivated hackers (read Sony, Microsoft, and even developer.apple.com). It makes no sense to me to remove a useful tool and force everyone to entrust their personal information to a third party (any third party). Options are good. Choice lets everyone satisfy their needs.

Calendar and Contact not syncing.

I am unable to get either new calendar entries or contacts changes to sync between my iPhone 3G and my desktop by way of Mobile Me. I can see that changes made on my desktop appear in the web interface to my Mobile Me account, but they never get to my iPhone. Conversely, new contacts or calendar entries created on my iPhone don't get to Mobile Me account.
I do get email messages sent to my @me.com or *.mac.com addresses and I can send email outgoing to the account. THere must have been an initial sync of calendar and contacts because I see most of my contact info, just not new entries or changes to existing ones.
I am using a one week old iPhone 3G through AT&T, and a Mac Pro running OS X 10.5.4. with all the latest patches. I use MS Entourage on my desktop and have syncing set up between that and iCal + Address Book and then to my Mobile Me account.
AM I doing something wrong? Is there a way to sync calendar and address book data through the USB sync cable rather than over the air?

Hi
I'm not that computer literate but have managed to sync my calendar, mail and contacts - so I hope this helps...
I didn't set up a new mobile me account as I don't want another email address. I am using my dot.mac account as my email - and sync'd using my usb cable. This should open itunes if you have it (download if you don't) and then the interface in itunes will walk you through it.
My email is now automatically arriving wirelessly. My calendar and contacts are all there - but when I want to update these I think I have to sync using the USB again, unless I open a mobile me account. My calendar and contacts are not updating wirelessly.
Hope that's useful.
