Cannot sync ical from iphone to my mac pro

Hi All
I have tried all sorts and although I ticked the relevant boxes on itunes, I cannot transfer (sync) ical info from iphone to my mac.
I have no info on my mac i cal, everything else like contacts seem to sync no problem!
I have tried using isync instead of itunes as some folk recommended but without any success.
Any ideas??
Thanks for your help

Before syncing calendar events with an empty supported calendar app on your computer, you need to enter one calendar event in the supported calendar app on your computer - in this case in iCal on your Mac. Make this calendar event up if needed, which can be deleted later.
If there are any calendar events available on your iPhone, this should provide a merge prompt with this first sync for this data, which you want to select.

iSync can't be used to sync anything with an iPhone. iSync can be used to reset the sync history on your Mac, which is done via iSync preferences.

HT4236 if i sync photos from iphone to my mac fir the first time what happens

if i sync photos from iphone to my mac fir the first time what happens

The transfer of photos from an iPhone to a Mac is an import. It is very similar to what happens when you move photos from any camera to the Mac (if you have ever done that). Instructions: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
The iTunes sync can move photos the other direction (Mac to iPhone). That "sync" works the same way each time you do it -- it sets the non-Camera Roll photos on the phone to match the current iTunes photo page settings. Instructions for that: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236

Sync problems from Iphone 4S to MacBook Pro

I cannot sync Icall from phone to Mac. Syncing from Mac to phone works perfect. What to do?

I also tried going into the app and emailing them to myself but the one I really need is over 25MB and therefore won't email. And it definitely won't go through messages.

Is there any way to sync notes from iPhone 4 to MacBook Pro?

Is there any way to sync notes from iPhone 4 to MacBook Pro?

If the phone doesn't power on and isn't seen by the computer then you wouldn't be able to pull data off it with the USB connection to your computer.
You could pursue data recovery if the notes are very valuable, but the cost can be similar to having data recovered from a failed computer drive(possibly prohibitively expensive).

Unable to sync Ical from Iphone 4 to MacBook since updating to Itunes 11.

I am unable to sync Ical from my Iphone 4 to MacBook since updating to Itunes 11. (and yes, the Iphone shows up as recognised in the sidebar and will sync Ical from Macbook to Iphone.) All ideas welcome.

If Damon's suggestion of resetting sync history doesn't fix the problem you most likely have a bad contact record in iCal. When they sync encounters the bad record it doesn't know what to do with it so it stops. To fix it you must find the bad record, open it, make a small change, and save it. An easy way to find the bad record is to create a new group and set the iPhone to sync to this group. Put a few records into the group at a time, then sync. At some point the sync will fail or hang. You have then narrowed the problem to a few records.

Cannot Sync iCal from .Mac

Whenever I try to sync iCal, a error message appears saying that iCal cannot sync due to inconsistent data, to reset data in iCal and then sync.
I have tried resetting the data on iCal, but it doesn't reset. I erased all the info, but I still cannot make iCal to sync date from .Mac.
Any idea?
Thanks!

Syncing calendars from iPhone5s and iPad. Syncing calendars from iPhone 4 with mac

Can I sync my calendar from my iPhone 5 with my iPad? If so, how?
Also, can I sync calendars from my iPhone 4 with my mac? If so, how?

Hi hpd0203,
There are a number of different ways of syncing calendars between your Apple devices. One of the easiest ways is to use iCloud. See this article for an introduction -

Cannot sync iCal and iPhone in Leopard

Hello,
iCal will not sync to my iPhone since upgrading to Leopard. I've restarted both iPhone and Mac repeatedly, but that hasn't helped. I've tried changing iPhone iCal sync settings but nothing works. All other information is synced, just not iCal.

Thanks so much for the advice.
Unfortunately, the problem persists. Syncing of iCal has been completely unstable ever since purchasing my iPhone both before Leopard and after. I just updated to 10.5.1 and the issue remains.
I have just deleted unwanted calendars - no improvement. I have reset the iPhone - no change. I have reset my iSync history - no effect.
This is a true case of Apple simply "just not working" instead of "just working". I've been a user since 1991 and an avid fan. Apple simply isn't the same company it used to be. I have a hard time advocating when something this basic to the PDA functionality consistently fails.
Thanks again for your help.

I cannot sync music from iphone 4s to iCloud nor iPhone 5s either

I have a lot of music in my iPhone 4s. iTunes only shows the buyed ones. How can I sync music from 4s to 5s?

You don't sync from one iphone to another.
You sync both to your computer.
All of your music should be on your computer. If it is not, then put it there.
You can then sync to any of your idevices you like.

I cannot sync photos from Iphone to Vista

I have a 3g Iphone and have over 500 pics on there. I sync every week with itunes libary but in the 12 months I have had this it's never synced pictures I have take on the phone, I can sync pics the opposite way from laptop to Iphone but not the way around that I want too. Any suggestions?

The pics taken with iphone are not part of the sync process at all, as the manual explains.
You should be importing these pics regularly as you would with any digital camera.

Syncing SMS from iPhone 3GS to MacBook Pro

I want to sync SMS from my iPhone to my Mac, but I don't know how and Google has failed me. I don't want to jailbreak my phone, or hack it in any way, and I don't want to pay for software if there is a free alternative. Everyone seems to be recommending Syphone, but it's outdated and won't support my phone.
How can I do this quickly and easily?
Thanks in advance.

Like it or not, you need third-party software and I don't know of anything free that works. Get this:

"Cannot connect to this iPhone" message on Mac Pro

Lately (since the update to iTunes 10.5.2? I'm not certain) I've been getting alert messages popping up on the desktop of my Mac Pro saying "iTunes cannot connect to this iPhone at this time". I'm baffled. This isn't an iPhone -- there isn't an iPhone in the house, although I do have an iPad. But I'd have thought whatever software was generating this behaviour would be able to distinguish between different species of Apple hardware, and the message isn't showing up on the iPad, but on the Mac Pro, which is a different OS!
What's going on? Is iTunes trying to do something it doesn't need to do, or shouldn't be doing? Or is this a way of telling me someone with an iPhone is trying to sneak in to my wireless LAN? (This is BT Infinity, which is a black box, unlike my former AirPort LAN on top of a Virgin cable modem; there I had an access list as well as WPA2.) Or what?

Update....following a Power cycle the iPad SW was able to be updated and iTunes recognised it!!
Note iTunes SW version is 11.1.4 (62) 64 Bit.
All cables are OEM.

Can I use Lion Server to sync files from my MBP and Mac Pro tower?

I have a 2008 Macbook Pro and a Mac Pro I'd like to sync files between. I also have a Mac Mini that I'm considering for an OS X Lion Server install if it could help sync all my files across computers. Any suggestions would be greatly appriciated!

There is a simple way for unmanaged clients.
To point an unmanaged client to your update server, enter the following command in terminal:
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate CatalogURL http://<your_server>:8088/index-lion-snowleopard-leopard.merged-1.sucatalog
(replace <your_server> with the dns name of your update server. If the unmanaged client runs snowleopard or leopard, adjust the url accordingly. For snowleopard clients, remove the "lion-" part. For leopard clients, remove the "lion-snowleopard-" part
