DISSAPOINTED TO DO LIST will NOT SYNC WITH IPHONE 3.0 IN ICAL

I was just wondering if other iphone users are dissappointed apple have not made the todo list in ical sync with ical on the iphone. I find this the most annoying thing. What is the main reason apple will not make this upgrade. I had hoped it would feature in 3.0 but it is not there. Just so dissappointing. I have emailed the suggestions site and wonder if this is a waste of time.
How do we get crucial feature implemented.
I don't want to use todo why should I have to get another program when its already on my laptop
Cathal

I only buy maybe 5-10 laptops a year, so I'm not a major purchaser of Apple products (though I did buy two copies of FCP last year, and have a variety of minis laying around) -- but as a business owner and solutions developer (we have almost 10,000 sq. ft. of data facility) -- people tend to receive my input on technology, especially on the "non-Windows" side (UNIX, MacOSX, etc.)
People are usually pretty stunned that I don't have an iPhone.
Aside from the sad AT&T network in Seattle -- the primary deal-killer for me, beyond everything else is that the iPhone has no Todo support. I run my business on the principles of David Allen's "Getting Things Done" -- and I'd likely consider purchasing iPhones for everyone in the company that has a principle stake in productivity ... but not if we need to use separate Todo applications.
I'm one tiny business that has consciously opted to forgo purchasing their product line because it doesn't support Todos.
I wonder how many more like me exist?

Avoid installing iTunes 11 if you are a Windows user. Calendars, etc will not sync with iPhone or iPad. Anyone have a fix?

After installing iTunes 11.0, Outlook Calendars, etc will not sync with iPhone or iPad. Anyone have a fix?

I'm also seeing weird sync issues since upgrading to iOS 7. The sync issues started when I first upgraded to iOS 7 so I suspect that iOS 7 is to blame and the other system differences aren't an issue (i.e. I also upgraded to Windows 8.1 but it never worked properly when I was on Windows 8). For me, the only way to "sync" all the smart playlists and music is to restore from backup and then the first sync seems to work. However, I haven't tried that recently (I tried it a month back or so and it worked then) because it is ridiculous to have to restore your phone just to sync things! Apple needs to fix the iOS 7 quality issues.

Itunes will not sync with iPhone or ipad

My ipad or iphone will not sync with my Macbook pro. This is the first "windoze" type I have ever had with an apple product. Been using them since Mac SE.
Help!
Itunes hangs if opened but does not hang if I connect as a guest on my macbook. I have deleted libraries, reinstalled Itune but nothing changes.

Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Application Support/SyncServices
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Quit the application if it's running. Move the selected item to the Trash. Relaunch the application and test.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

Music from itunes will not sync with iphone 5

I just upgraded from iphone 4 to 5 and didnt have time for verizon to sync my phone so i did it when i got home. the music from my itunes will not sync with my phone. it shows the music on the usage bar when the phone is plugged in but shows no content on the phone. any suggestions?

I have a similar problem. Mine started with iTunes putting multiple versions of the same songs (whole and seemingly random albums) onto my iPod 5, but after trying to remedy that I now cannot sync any music of any sort. It took random songs off and then started getting stuck at the "waiting to apply changes" stage (as apparently many people have seen) and after trying all the things that are supposed to work I now have an iPod that doesn't have any music on it (because a lot of my music was not purchased on iTunes) and won't sync music or finish any other kind of sync.
It seems like the "fixes" discovered so far don't work for everyone.
My iPod is 5th gen running iOS 7.0.4 (but problem started on 7.0.3) with the latest version of iTunes, for reference.

Outlook calandar will not sync with iphone

My calanders in outlook will not sync with my iPhone 5 ios7. What do I need to do to fix this?

Did it work previously?
Any errors?

Itunes keeps saying this computer already authorized, but will not sync with iphone ?

Itunes will not sync with my IPhone 5s any longer. It keeps saying that my PC is unauthorized. But, when I go to authorize, it says it's already authorized, but of course, will not sync even though it's logged in and authorized. ???? *** ?

Usually that means you have content, such as apps or media, on the mobile device that was acquired from Apple under a different Apple ID than the one you're using with iTunes. The only way out is to remove that content, or else to sign in to the iTunes Store with the other ID.

Documents to Go Desktop App will not sync with iPhone and iPad

This used to work perfectly and now, it just stopped being able to sync. The desktop shows that my devices are disconnected? I've uninstalled and reinstalled and the desktop app won't recognize any devices. Any ideas?? I'm using Windows 7 PC and syncing to iPhone 4 and iPad. hanks.

This user tip might help you understand how accounts work with Address Book.
First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.

"Nike + running" app will not sync with iPhone 5s

Since I got an iPhone 5s last week, my Nike + running app will not sync. Does anyone have experience with this?

I have the same problem and I don´t know how to solve.

My "notes" on iPad will not sync with iPhone thru iCloud. What gives?

My "notes" on iphone and iPad will not sync thru iCloud. I am sure it is user error...but I can not figure it out.

It reads like this is a problem on the iOS side. On your iPhone or iPad launch the notes app, in the top left corner tap the button until you are on the Accounts page and see if iCloud is an option. If it is select that option and new notes will push to your Mac. If its not close the Notes app and go to Settings > iCloud > Notes > Toggle On. The option will now be in the notes app as described above. Side note: You may be asked to set up an iCloud email if you haven't already. Hope that helps.

ICal will not sync with iPhone

When I tried to sync an appointment created on the iPhone with iCal it will not show up in iCal.

I just posted this to an earlier question on an issue very similar. Might help some of you watching this topic.
This process, which AppleCare gave me last night worked to solve my problem. However, I have one nugget to add to the fix, a faster process to try first.
EDITED FROM PREVIOUS POST:
Try these steps to narrow down the offending calendar and/or event.
1. create a new calendar in ical. Name it test, iphone or something.
2. uncheck all your calendars in ical, so you can only view the events in the new calendar
3. put a test event in the new calendar ( in the future). Call it Test 1.
4. connect up your iphone and set the iphone to sync only to that new calendar.
5. In the info tab that shows up when the iphone is connected, make sure to sync ical calendars is checked
6. Set it to sync only selected calendars.
7. in the window that shows all the calendars, only have the new calendar checked.
8. put a check mark in the box not to sync items older than... Set it to 1 day.
9. Now click apply in the bottom right side of itunes. (this will see if the iphone can sync to ical)
10. Once you have established that the iphone can sync, go back into the info tab and uncheck the new calendar created and check only one of your old calendars.
11. Click apply and try to sync the iphone to that particular calendar.
12. Keep un-checking a calendar that syncs and check a different calendar until you run across a calendar that does not sync. The one that gives you a disconnect error.
13. Now that you've narrowed it down to the offending calendar, you know that it has to do with an event from yesterday and forward. (ED.- in my experience, this DID NOT prove that the event was limited to the time you specify for the sync. But it does no harm to narrow the scope for iPhone.)
14. Go back to ical and put a check mark in the calendar that is giving the issue. So now you see the new calendar created and the offending calendar.
15. Now you need to figure out which event/events that are causing the problem.
NEW STEP 16. Fast fix (try this first, and if it doesn't work, you'll try the longer piecemeal process.)
Cut and paste All events to your new test calendar. The fastest way do this is to open the list of events by clicking on the list icon (3 lines) on the bottom left of ical.
17. Sort by title and if any events show up with a blank title, fix these or delete them.
18. Sort by type of item so you only select the events, and not any ToDo items.
19. Shift click at the top of the list, shift-click at the bottom of the list and everything should be highlighted. Then, with the cursor on one of the items highlighted, Control-click and a menu will open. Select Calendar, and then your test calendar. This moves everything into your new calendar.
17. Try to sync.
In my experience, ical fixed some items that were queer by moving them to a new calendar. My original calendar was imported from Outlook.
If this doesn't work, you'll need to try again by creating another test calendar and then moving over a few items at at time, syncing after each import, wading through your events until you find the culprit.
We return to our regular programming here:
16. Start moving events over a few at a time to the newly created calendar and sync the iphone only to the new calendar. You can move events 2 ways.
16A. if you have the tray to the side expanded so you can view the details of the event, you can change what calendar it is in.
16B. At the bottom of ical there is a button to the right that allows you to view all evens in a list view. You can right-click or control-click on the event and move to a different calendar.
16c. CORRECTION TO ORIGINAL POST Sync iPhone.
17. Keep following step 16 until you receive the the disconnect error.
18. When you get the disconnect error again, you know that the last batch of events has the offending, or one of the offending, event/events.
If you run through all of your calendars and do not receive the disconnected error, then the data that was disconnecting the iphone was older data. (ed. -In my experience, this proved false. the error was buried in old data, even though I had the setting at "1" day.)

Itunes will not sync with iphone 6

I have tried all of the suggestions I can find on here, I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes, I have tried a hard reset with my iphone, I have tried plugging my phone into the different available ports. I am using the cord that my phone came with, and nothing is working. I need to sync and backup my phone but I am having no luck! ( I am running on Yosemite and my iphone 6 is up to date)
I have also deauthorized and reauthorized my computer. I have also deleted my old backups with the exception of my latest backup.
Can anyone help? I need to get my calendars synced as I rely on that due to running my own business.
I have attached a screen shot that shows my itunes, it does see the phone but will not allow me to click on it instead it just gets stuck.
TIA!

A bit more info for those of you reading this.... the problem seemed to be in iTunes. For each connected device , if I clicked on the Photo option I could no longer select the second radio button for limiting the photos by Events, Albums, etc. It was an all or nothing deal. But selecting all would cause the error.
So I had read the other forum posts about the "&" symbol being the cause of the problem. I went through iPhoto and made all of the changes. It did not work. I then looked at iTunes, using the AlbumData2.xml file listed in the other forums as a reference. I found one album with the "&". I edited that one. Still would not work. So then I spent 3 hours on the phone with AppleCare last week. I talked with 4 different advisors. None of them had heard about the "&" error from the forums. We tried everything in iPhoto including repair and rebuild. Finally we created a whole new library and reimported my master photos from my original one. Using this option would allow me to now check off that radio button in iTunes. BUT... I now lost all of my albums and events and would need to rebuid them. I was not happy. They agreed and we set up time to talk this week.
So today I talked with AppleCare again. They now have more info and said the problem has to do with iTunes and the new iPhoto 9.4. It does not like the "&" symbol anywhere in either iPhoto or iTunes. So they now have me going through everything in my iTunes library. Genre is OK but any other item cannot have " & ". I have several dozen to edit and will do it over the weekend and then restore my original iPhoto Library and see if I can finally get it all to sync. I will let you know how I make out, but apparently you need to eliminate " & " from every entry in iTunes and iPhoto.
Quality control is not up to par with Apple these days.

Playlists of Podcasts will not sync with iPhone

Hi,
For the first time since updating to iOS 7 I have tried to sync a Playlist of Podcasts and noticed that the playlist no longer appears in Music on my iPhone. Looking in Podcasts, there isn't a Playlist option.
Any ideas?
Thanks, Gordon

Allen thanks for you assistance,

This is the issue - when I change something on my mac - it shows up on Mobile Me via the cloud - my iPod Touch even makes the changes as I would expect with my iPhone. I think I have sent up my iPhone appropriately but I could be wrong. I followed Apple's instructions at:
http://www.apple.com/mobileme/setup/iphone/mac.html
Like I said - it is driving me nuts - cause changes on my iPhone will show up on my mac and iPod touch - but when I make changes to something on my mac it will show up on iPod touch but not on my iPhone.
Thanks everyone,

ITunes 10.5 will not Sync with iPhone 4

Did the update to iOS5 recently and everything works great with the exception of the fact that I ended up with no music on my phone. Now whenever I connect the device it only clocks and never does anything even after 20mins. HELP! Using a MacBook Pro!

If you cannot update your computer, you will not be able to sync your phone. The requirements are:
Mac system requirements
Mac computer with USB 2.0 port
Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later
iTunes 10.1 or later (free download from www.itunes.com/download)
iTunes Store account
Internet access

CDs will not sync with iPhone

I ripped multiple CDs into iTunes. I tried to sync them in iTunes. Sometime I see "home sharing" in the music app and I can see my CDs. When I shut down iTunes then I can no longer see my home share system.
Other times, access to the home share never appears on my iPhone . I must re syn phone to iTunes each time.
Why can't I see the CDs I ripped in iTunes on my iPhone espcially when I specifically checked the boxes to transfer certain albums. I would like to access this CD music on my iPhone when I am away from my home network over WiFi. Is there a way to acutally download music onto my iPhone?
