iTunes says my contacts are being synced with Microsoft Exchange over the air, but I do not have an Exchange account, and I have disabled over the air syncing on both my iPhone 4, as well as in iTunes. How do I remedy this? I did a complete Restore on my phone to rectify this, but got the same results.
I have worked for a couple of hours now; at first, none of my contacts were syncing with Outlook, even though iTunes said they were. Then after checking and unchecking everything I could find relating to syncing, some of my contacts synced. Now I've managed to get them all synced, but still getting this message. I need to make sure that going forward, all changes and updates are correctly synced manually whenever I plug my phone into my computer. Any suggestions?You are getting this message because you are trying to create an iCloud account on a PC. You can only create iCloud account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch) running iOS 5 or higher, or on a Mac running OS X Lion (10.7.5) or higher. After creating your account on one of these devices you will then be able to sign into the account using this ID on your PC.

Your contacts are being synced with your iPad over the air from iCloud
tl;dr: iPhone works properly with iTunes 11.1 and iPad does not. Can't sync with both iTunes and iCloud to separate, distinct Calendar/Contact/Notes groups.
Explanation:
Ever since iTunes 11 was released (I'm on 11.1 now) I'm unable to sync Contacts, Calendars, and Notes via iTunes because I'm using over the air syncing from iCloud. As late as iTunes 10.7, this was okay, because "On My PC" groups would sync perfectly with iTunes, and iCloud groups would sync perfectly with iCloud.
In fact, this still works, today, but only on my iPhones.
However on the iPad I get the message "Your contacts are being synced with your iPad over the air from iCloud." (Well, yeah, I know that. My iCloud contacts should continue to sync via iCloud. I don't want to turn off this behavior.)
The "workaround" used to be sticking to iTunes 10.7, which had correct behavior for both iPad and iPhone. Of course iOS7 nuked that option.
Is anyone aware of another workaround? (Merging my professional Outlook stuff into my iCloud stuff is not a workaround.)I can place a bounty. $20 USD to your Paypal account for a fix.

What does it mean, in iTunes, "your contacts are being synced with Microsoft Exchange over the air"?
Hello,
I'm trying to sync the contacts on my iPhone 5 with my contacts on my Mac Book Air (merge them), I'm also using Outlook (Microsoft) to manage my email account and my contacts. I used to sync my contacts from my previous iPhone (4S) with my contacts on my Mac and also with contacts on Outlook.
Now that I have iPhone 5 I missed that sync (iPhone-Mac-Outlook), so I figure it out that in iTunes there is this message: "your contacts are being synced with Microsoft Exchange over the air. Your contacts will also sync directly with this computer. This may result in duplicated data showing on your device"
Every contact created on iPhone doesn't sync with my Mac or Outlook.
How should I configure my iphone and my mac to sync properly??
Thanks a lot!
Kind Regards,
Silvana

I keep getting the message that my Contacts or my Calendar is being synced with Mobile Me over the air even though Mobile Me no longer exists on my computer or as an Apple product
I have downloaded and am running the latest version of iTtunes running on a Win8 Pro 64bit machine
ErnieIt's because you must have sent some information like you must have clicked on Submit button to perform any query. So when you will click on back button it will again send this info.
So, right click on Back button and choose 2nd site from the top of the list to go to previous page.

Dear wise & wondeful people:
How can I get missing contacts, notes, calendar dates and reminders that are just on my old iphone onto the iCloud for transfer to my new iPhone upgrade? Half of my contacts, notes, ect. were on my iCloud so have happily moved to my new iPhone but the rest are completely resistant. For example, on my iCloud I have 14 missing contacts starting with the letter A alone, however they are happily viewable on my old iPhone 4S and won't budge over into the iCloud.
There are also 3 notes missing yet still acessible on my onld iPhone 4S, the list goes on.
Your help would be most appreciated. Thank you so much.

Hey everyone,
iPhone n00b here. Does anyone know if it is possible to sync the iphone over the air either via 802.11 or Bluetooth?
I don't want to have to plug it into my laptop every night.
CheersWhat are you trying to sync? And where does that content reside.
If you are sycning email, contacts, and calendars, then you can sync with Mobile Me "over the air."
If you want to sync music, podcasts or otner content stored in iTunes, then your computer that hosts iTunes must be turned on. WFI can be uused to connect but the compute must be running. -

I can load a CD on to my PC - iTunes but when I sync with my iPhone 5s the CD does not load onto my iPhone 5S.
Help!You can sort your library by adding a Sorting info in the File Info. Select a file in iTunes U, press cmd + i, choose Sorting Tab. For example add a Sort Name. For each file you have to put a value into that field, I did it with 01, 02, 03 .. 12. I do not know if this works if you select multiple files, but I did not try.
The next time you sync your device, your files will be in order. It' ve tested it on an iPad2.
If you ask me, there must be a better solution for that problem as the files have a track number saved in the info as well, and it is quite annoying to add the sorting order manually. -

You need to restore the pre-upgrade backup of the library file in the manner shown in Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash.

How can I ensure itunes purchases (music, apps) are paid using credits which show on the account instead of billed to my credit card? Info indicates credit is used first but I just bought a song and it did not seem to be deducted from my credits shown on account.
Hello how to use this,
The article linked below details how to go about viewing your purchase history in the iTunes Store.

the "Sync with this [device] over Wi-Fi" option is not available in the summary part on the new itunes. Anyone know where this option is on itunes 11?
If you feel misled then that is how you feel and I understand that. You are entitled to feel that way. But the iPad DOES work with Leopard 10.5.8 but you have to sync with the cable. When I bought my iPad1 - I was using a MacBook running 10.5.8. I upgraded to Snow Leopard in anticipation of the next generation of Apple iDevices and this past Christmas I received a new MacBook Pro running Lion 10.7. I still have the MacBook running Snow Leopard and my wife uses that one as her own laptop now.
As the iPad became more popular - users cried for a PC free device as well and now the iPad is PC free as long as you are running iOS 5. So apple has provided a way to use an iPad without the need for a computer at all. I really believe that Apple has provided a way for many people to take advantage of their newest device and it does not necessitate the purchase of a new computer or OS.
I am by no means defending Apple, but I think they have done a pretty amazing job with a device that is still just under two years old. It is still "backwards" compatible with two older versions of Mac Operating systems and with two MS operating systems as well.
I realize that everybody cannot dump their current computer and OS every time a new device hits the market, but at some point, software is upgraded, computers are upgraded and new phones, MP3 players, iPods, and iPads are released. Unfortunately, if you want the latest and greatest technology, sometimes you just have to bite the bullet and spend the money.
