Contacts sync from Google to Mac but not from Mac to Google... only one direction!

I initially synced google to my mac and it worked fine. I set up the sync in the mail app. Under contacts preferences, I picked the "on My Mac" and clicked sync with google.
Everything In google continues to sync to my mac.  But if I add something to my contact book on the Imac, it doesn't go in the other direction.
I tried adding an exchange account... no better.
I tried adding a new CalDav google account in contacts...  no better.
I am at my wits end.  Can someone please suggest a solution?
Thank you.

I am going to give followup.
The problem was corruption of my brand new Imac 27.  I went around and around with applecare and they finally figured out that my preferences were corrupted.  Usuallly that can be fixed but they were unable.  Basically, everytime I set the right connection to gmail up, it changed it...
Finally, I set up a new user account on my mac.  I logged into that user and started all over again.  Now everything works.
I spent hours and hours on this...  I bought a mac because "It just works"  No more fooling with the registry and spending forever in dread with tech support.   OK, so Mac doesn't have a registry.  It has libraries.  I spent forever fixing it..   Felt just like my Windows experience.  Hope this isn't a harbinger of things to come.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Your best method would be to connect via USB and transfer that way, since videos are not transferred using photostream.
    However you can stop photos on your mac being added to photostream in the iPhoto preferences > photostream by unchecking the automatic upload box.

    if the printer don't support that then you need to find a printing app in app store
    which will act the role as printer driver for the device to speak with the printer

  • Input Tax code from logical partner LS but not from indiv vendor partner LI

    Hi,
    Find that tax code at vendor invoice is being taken from logical partner (LS) , but not from the individual vendor partner number (LI) . Bothe the partners are maintained in WE20 , OBCA , OBCD & OMRY.
    Like to know the reason / setting to pick up tax code from logical partner (tax rates are same in both cases).
    With regards,

    Hi Dove,
    I think you can use a substitution for field Bank Type at Item Level (TCODE OBBH). This would fill your bank type when you post the document in FI, then you won't have problems in F110.
    Hope that helps.Cheers.

    The "lower specs" have nothing to do at all with why you cannot print. Are you connected to the same Wi-Fi network that the printer & the iPad 3 is on?

  • Touch syncs video podcast by wifi, but NOT by Mac itunes transfer

    Trying to sync a video podcast from iTunes. (Brigitte Dale)
    Oddly enough it downloads if selected through iTunes on the iTouch (2.2).
    But gives the error about not transferring with Mac iTunes (v 8.0.2).
    The videos are 28.49 fps, mpeg-4 (perian) 424 x 318 millions. about 2400 kbits/sec
    Files are MOV.
    Convert to IPOD format not available from right-click.
    Selecting it in the advanced menu has no effect.

    You are correct about things not adding up.
    My ipod touch weirdly doesn't show up on the desktop or on itunes BUT it will always launch iphoto and ask if I want to download the two photos (which I downloaded from iphoto INTO the ipod, go figure).
    Photos copy only one way - iTunes to iPod. Not the other way around. Could it be that your iPod is being treated as camera? You can disable your computer from recognizing the touch as a camera. See this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1501
    I have been synching my podcasts by using our house's wireless.
    Wireless syncing is not supported. You can connect to iTunes and download, but you can't sync with your computer wirelessly.
    As far as iTunes not recognizing your touch, a piece of software - Apple Mobile Device Services - needs to be operating correctly. See this article for help on troubleshooting problems: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1747

  • Contacts sync on iphone and ipad but not on Macbook

    Hi guys, maybe someone can help me out wit this this problem.
    I have the iPhone 4s, Ipad3 and a PC, iCloud was working operfectly bewteen all devices. I recentlky bought the new Macbook air and when I turned iCloud on all my contacts cam in automaticaly.
    My surprise came later when I realized that not all contacts where in my Mac. I checked my iPhone and Ipad and all where there. I then checked iCloud.com and not all my contacts where there. So this is very strange. I cloud transferred the contacs bewteen my iphone and Ipad but not into iCloud.com and to my Mac.
    I did a test with one of the contacts and deleted and create it again and then this was transferred to iCloud and to my Mac, but I really do not want to do this with all my contacts.
    Anyone can help me out with this???
    Thanks,
    Michel

    POP mail is not synced. POP mail is picked up individually by each email client. If you want to pick up less on one device than the other, set the one device you want to master the account with to delete mail from the server after you pick it up. That way, it would not be available to the other mail clients. Otherwise, you would need to delete whatever mail you do not want on the individual devices. You can also keep in on whatever devices you want and it will not affect the other devices.

  • Can ping from Windows to Mac but not from Mac to Windows

    Hi all!
    New owner of a Mac Mini. Know nothing about it, so NewBie Alert!
    Windows PC with two NIC's. One connected to the internet, one connected to the Mac by using a crossover cable. Internet Connection Sharing on the Windows PC and the Mac can go out to the internet so there is connectivity between the Mac and the Windows PC.
    The problem: I cannot ping the Windows PC from the Mac. I can ping the Mac from the Windows PC, so my suspicion is that it has something to do with a firewall on the Mac, but as far as i know the firewall on the Mac is switched off. On the Windows PC the firewall is definitely switched off.
    Who can help me getting this working?
    Thanks,
    Ton.

    There can be multiple problems here:
    - no ping service provided on the Windows PC
    - ping traffic blocked by a firewall at either end
    - pinging the wrong host: You have two NICs in your Windows PC, with two IP addresses, and two host names. Only one of the two will be visible from the Mac. Use "ipconfig" at a command prompt to get the two IP addresses, or look at the Properties of your Network connections.
    - Name resolution problem: Try using the IP address with the ping command, not a host name.
    Ping from the Windows PC to the MAC, and observe the reported IP address. Make sure the IP address you use to ping from the Mac is in the same subnet, i.e. the first three numbers must be the same, like
    192.168.1.100 vs. 192.168.1.101
    What is the result of the ping operation, i.e. "host not reachable", "unknown host", or "no response".

  • How to delete events in iCal on Mac, but not from iPhone

    Hi everyone,
    I have a reminder set to my phone for something everyday which is great because it's the first thing I look at in the morning. But I don't want this event plastered all over my iCal on my computer as it's unnecessary to see it there. But of course, since I sync my iPhone with this computer, it always ends up there too.
    Is there a way to sync only certain events, but not all of them? Sometimes I want to do the opposite, where I need to see a reminder on my computer for work, but don't need it popping up on my phone.
    Thanks for any help you can give!

    use the following article to delete an icloud calendar event:

  • PDF prints from Acrobat 8 Pro, but not from Acrobat 9 Pro

    I have a PDF that prints fine when I print from Acrobat 8 Pro, but when I open the same PDF in Acrobat 9 Pro, only portions of each page actually print out.
    All systems running Windows XP Pro, SP3
    A8P 8.1.2
    A9P 9.1.1
    Any ideas?

    Well, for those following this thread or needing a solution, I found a work-around though I'm still not sure why the initial problem exists.
    In Acrobat 9 Pro, once you have the main print dialogue box open, follow the steps below:
    1) Click ADVANCED
    2) Select PRINT AS IMAGE
    3) Set DPI to 300
    4) Click OK
    5) Make any other typical print setup adjustments as you normally would and finish printing as usual

  • DST prob for conversion from US/Eastern- GMT but not from GMT- US/Eastern.

    Hi folks,
    I'm running the following SQL against a Oracle 10.2.0.1 g server using Oracle SqlDeveloper 1.5.3 & then again using SQLPlus 10.2.0.1.0.
    I'm attempting to provide SQL that highlights the jump forward by one hour at 2am US/Eastern on 14th Mar 2010.
    In order to do this I've converted times from GMT into US/Eastern using the oracle function from_tz and to_timestamp.
    The following sql statements are suffixed with a 'correct' or 'incorrect' as to whether they correlate to what I would expect and indeed to the time returned from the World Clock website.
    =======================
    = Via Oracle SqlDeveloper 1.5.3
    =======================
    -- The first section of selects highlight the jump of 1 hour forward that occurs on the 14th of March 2010 by converting the GMT time to the corresponding US/Eastern time and the second block reverses the conversion.
    select from_tz(to_timestamp('14-MAR-2010 0500' , 'DD-MON-YYYY HH24MI'), 'GMT') at time zone 'US/Eastern' from dual; -- returns 14-MAR-10 00:00:00.000000000 US/EASTERN correct
    select from_tz(to_timestamp('14-MAR-2010 0600' , 'DD-MON-YYYY HH24MI'), 'GMT') at time zone 'US/Eastern' from dual; -- returns 14-MAR-10 01:00:00.000000000 US/EASTERN correct
    select from_tz(to_timestamp('14-MAR-2010 0659' , 'DD-MON-YYYY HH24MI'), 'GMT') at time zone 'US/Eastern' from dual; -- returns 14-MAR-10 01:59:00.000000000 US/EASTERN correct
    select from_tz(to_timestamp('14-MAR-2010 0700' , 'DD-MON-YYYY HH24MI'), 'GMT') at time zone 'US/Eastern' from dual; -- returns 14-MAR-10 03:00:00.000000000 US/EASTERN correct

    select from_tz(to_timestamp('14-MAR-2010 0159' , 'DD-MON-YYYY HH24MI'), 'US/Eastern') at time zone 'GMT' from dual; -- returns 14-MAR-10 06:59:00.000000000 US/EASTERN correct
    select from_tz(to_timestamp('14-MAR-2010 0200' , 'DD-MON-YYYY HH24MI'), 'US/Eastern') at time zone 'GMT' from dual; -- returns 14-MAR-10 07:00:00.000000000 US/EASTERN incorrect
    select from_tz(to_timestamp('14-MAR-2010 0300' , 'DD-MON-YYYY HH24MI'), 'US/Eastern') at time zone 'GMT' from dual; -- returns 14-MAR-10 08:00:00.000000000 US/EASTERN incorrect
    select from_tz(to_timestamp('14-MAR-2010 0301' , 'DD-MON-YYYY HH24MI'), 'US/Eastern') at time zone 'GMT' from dual; -- returns 14-MAR-10 08:01:00.000000000 US/EASTERN incorrect
    select from_tz(to_timestamp('14-MAR-2010 0400' , 'DD-MON-YYYY HH24MI'), 'US/Eastern') at time zone 'GMT' from dual; -- returns 14-MAR-10 09:00:00.000000000 US/EASTERN incorrect
    which is as I would expect. At 6:59am GMT the time in US/Eastern is 1:59 am, however, at 7:00am the time in US/Eastern is now 3:00am. This correlates to the times I get back when I perform the same calculations using the converter at the WorldClock.
    http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html
    However when I attempt to perform the same conversions except in reverse i.e. from US/Eastern to GMT I get different results.
    -- everything is fine up until the actual time of the change over (2am US/Eastern). With the 2:00am time though I would expect Oracle or perhaps even the SqlDeveloper client to indicate either of the following :-
    a) the time 14-MAR-10 02:00am US/Eastern is actually a non-existant time as per the WorldClock.
    b) that it's defaulting the time 14-MAR-10 02:00am to 14-MAR-10 03:00am US/Eastern
    instead the results proceeding the sql statements are output and for any time on/after 2am they are 1 hour behind their correct GMT times as per the world clock.
    I understand that there is a patch for timezone's from 10.2.0.1 to 10.2.0.4 that should address this, however, the reason I'm posting this is because when I run the above SQL in sqlplus against the same server I get different results except this time both conversions are incorrect.

    so it's as if the Oracle Client SqlDeveloper somehow intervenes as the results come back from the server an adjusts it for the first set of conversions but not the second.
    Basically it looks like I need the patch for the timezones for 10.2.0.1 but what about the Clients? Is there patches I then need for them? Would the SqlPlus client that ships with 10.2.0.4 return the correct results or once the patch is applied to the server.
    Has anyone else encountered this problem and if so would they be able to point me in the direction of a resource describing and resolving it?
    Thanks,
    Mark.

    Hey Robert,
    Yes indeed we are paying for Oracle support? As far as I know I logged in through metalink in an effort to investigate this problem.
    Our DBA upgraded from 10.2.0.4 to 10.2.0.1 and all the inconsistency went away thankfully.
    Thanks for taking the time to reply to me,
    Mark.

  • Apps move from ipad to iphone, but NOT from iphone to ipad?  Please help.

    Does anyone have an idea on how to solve this issue?

    Apps don't move from one iOS device to another. That's impossible.
    All apps originate from Apple. They are downloaded directly to your iPhone or iPad. Or, you can download them to your computer, then sync the iOS device using iTunes. In any event, you only have to pay for an app once. Anything you downloaded on one device can be downloaded to another device. Apple does not charge you for the same app twice, as long as you use the same Apple ID for both.
