Your question doesn't make sense. Facebook has nothing to do with syncing an iDevice. Explain your problem if you want an answer.

My iPad and iPhone are not syncing notes, calendars or contacts.

Hello
Notes, Contacts and Calendar event can come from other sources too.
> Email accounts Like Gmail, Outlook ....
> Social Media, like FaceBook Twitter ...
> Apps you might be using.
Are each of your devices signed in with each account, that could be used to sync them?
Best of Luck

i have been using an iPhone 4 till date and now migrated to a iPhone 4s.The contacts are not copied in total from the other phone what should i do

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Please try the following…
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.

Just got my iPad and when syncing photos will only sync recent photos taken on iPhone - will not sync any photos from my albums or events despite selecting all events

Just got my iPad and when syncing photos will only sync recent photos taken on iPhone - will not sync any photos from my albums or events despite selecting all events or even when i select specific events or albums.

What is the file name of the video(s) you want to sync?
Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

There are a few tv shows that played this week that are not available on itunes from tnt. Why are they not available for download.

There are a few tv shows that played this week that are not available on itunes from tnt. Why are they not available for download. We watch these each week, and I have checked to be sure that there was actually an episode this week, and there was.

Under other "sync-able" players, there's usually the "Sync only checked items" radio button. Not for the 2.0 Apple TV. There's no option, but acts as though that option ("sync only, etc...") has been selected. Figured it out after an hour of walking back and forth from my Mac to the TV. Argh.
Try it. De-select the shows, sync the AppleTV and look under the "TV Shows" and the one's you've unchecked will not be there.

Suddenly, events entered in Calendar on iPhone are not showing up in iCal or iCloud

Until late November, i had an iPhone 4s with iOS 5.   Then i got an iPhone 6 with iOS 8. As previously, when i would enter an event in the Calendar, that data would also show up in my iCal calendar and on my iCloud calendar, until the last couple of days. Now, new entries are not showing up on iCal or iCloud. I encountered the problem that my iPhone, 64G, is being backed up to the iCloud and after two backups, taking up 2.4G each, my 5G of iCloud storage was used up. I speculated that this was why my phone data stopped syncing to the other calendars on the computer and cloud, though i did not know for sure. I deleted one of the two back ups and am about to delete the other one. I have never had this problem of running out of iCloud storage on my other phone. According to Settings>iCloud>Storage, i had 89MB. But since i have deleted one of the 2.4G backups (which was "incomplete") my new entries are still not showing up in iCal and on the iCloud.
Is there a way to get this feature to work again?
Are there things i can check or uncheck in settings or in Calendar or ??   that will get this to work well as it did in iOS 5?

ckuan - thank you for replying. i am really desperate for help. I have wasted so much time on this. I was on hold with Apple support for a long time and then had a call with a rep that lasted over an hour but he didn't know anything about issues of these kinds. i was put on hold a lot while he consulted. He did agree that the data wasn't syncing from iPhone to iCloud and iCal because the iCloud storage was used up by the iPhone back ups. So he advised deleting one of them. I now have 2.4G of storage on iCloud. Am i wrong to think that should be enough?   I still ave the original complete back up (2.4g) undeleted, in case there some reason that i need it. i don't like deleting things i don't have a good understanding of.
Following your instructions, i went to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars. I then scrolled down to Calendars and at the bottom, i see where it says Default Calendar. This raised new questions for me which i will ask you/others now:
On the Default Calendar page, there is a heading that says iCloud and there is a second heading that says my gmail email address, [email protected]. Under the iCloud heading, there is a list of 8 "calendars," called Work, Family, Pets, Home, etc. Under the gmail address heading, there is only one option listed, which is my gmail username. When i went to the Default Calendar option, as i think you suggested if i understood you right, i found that the Calendar with the checkmark next to it was the gmail user name, under the gmail address heading. Presumably, this is the same setting i had on my 4s with iOS 5.
I wanted to follow your instruction to change this to iCloud as Default Calendar. but the only option i have is to choose only one of those 8 "calendars," either Work, or Pets, or Home, etc. Does this make sense?   The only reason i know for having these many different calendars was to give different colors to the different event categories. I didn't really want them to be separate calendars. i just wanted to use the color coding for type of event in my overall calendar.
I don't know why this is suddenly so complicated and confusing, after working fine for the first two or three weeks i've had the new iPhone. Suddenly, when i enter events in Calendar, it's not reaching the cloud. If this is because my gmail and/or google user name was checked as the default calendar, that was not a setting i would've recently changed. I never would have set my iPhone to only use one of the iCloud sub-calendars at my default calendars.
But right now, per your instructions, i have checked Settings>Mail.Contacts,Calendars>Calendars>Default Calendar to iCloud>Home (Home being one of my 8 sub-calendars). When i look on the Mail,Contacts,Calendars setting list, under Default calendar, it now says Home, instead of my gmail username. Just to be clear, there is no way to check iCloud on the Default Calendar page. i have tried checking it, but it's just a somewhat grayed out heading and doesn't respond to attempts to check it, it's not offered as a Calendar option. Only the various sub-calendars are offered a default calendar options, under the grayed out iCloud heading. So, i selected Home, for no particular reason. i have lots of entries under different categories.
Here is the result:   still no new entries showed up in iCloud or iCal. In January, a couple of days ago, i entered three dental appointments, for which i have always used Health as what i thought was a category (not a separate "calendar"). The color of Health events is green. The color of Home events is Blue. After changing the Default Calendar from gmail email address>user name to iCloud>Home (blue), the dental appointment in January did not show up. But when i went into the first dental appointment event>edit and changed the "calendar" to Home, it then showed up on the calendar. The other two dental appointments which were still Health did not show up.
Then, i changed the first dental appointment that is showing up in January back to Health (green). It still shows up, now, colored green, even though Home/blue is now my default calendar. But the two other dental appointments are not showing up.
Does this mean if want to use my Calendar and have the data backed up in iCloud and iCal, from now on, i need to use only one sub calendar and give up using the different color codes because iOS 8 is forcing me to choose only one sub calendar to be my whole calendar, and the only way to use different colors for different categories of events would be to first enter it as the default sub calendar (such as dental appointment>Home), and then go back and edit it into the correct sub calendar (such as changing it to the correct category, Health) to show the correct one instead of the "default" one?
Why was this made so much more difficult and complicated than it used to be? It was working normally up until a couple of days ago.
What i need, if possible, is info on what setting i can use to go back to using my gmail address user name as my default calendar, so that it can just work properly as it did before. It seems ridiculous that i am forced by iCloud to use a sub category as my default calendar and everything that isn't entered as that subcategory will not be processed in iCloud. Why does iCloud provide these sub calendar category options at all, if it's going to force people to only be able to use one of them?
What am i missing here?
Is there a setting that would enable combining all subcategories as one calendar, called iCloud, but where i could still use the different colors for different categories?

Dates entred in my Calendar on the iPhone do not sync and then appear on iCloud on my Mac. Dates entered on the Mac sync perfectly OK on the iPhone Calendar. What is happening here?

Deleted Items on my iPhone are not syncing with my deleted items in Outlook

Prior to OS 3.0 whenever I deleted an item on my iPhone and then deleted it from the trash it would sync and do the same on my pc. I am using Outlook Exchange.
My inbox, outbox and sent mail are all syncing. Just not the trash.
My trash is showing as empty on iPhone and full on Outlook.
Thanks.

i figured it out.... before syncing your phone to your macbook or whatever:
-go into settings
-select icloud
-go to calendars
-change the selector from ON to OFF
-sync phone to computer
-ical syncing with phone will now work like it did before iOS5 and iCloud, but in a good way

Some contacts on my iPhone are not syncing to iCloud

Most of my contacts sync from my iPhone 4 to iCloud but there are some that do not. I check iCloud.com and cannot find them but yet on my phone the contacts appear on the iCloud section of my "Contacts".
Have searched the forum and cannot find anything that might help me.
Some contacts I find that do not sync have custom labels - but other contacts do have custom labels and sync without any issues.
Stuck as some of the people that don't sync are people I contact often!
Thanks for any help given.

YAY! So I figured out a simple way to do this. I'll try to keep the steps simple.
1. I went to icloud.com and into my calendar.
2. I created a new calendar for each of my calendars. (for instance, I have family, friends, business, etc.)
3. I then went to the iMac ICal and exported each of my calendars (those which i just created a new calendar for on icloud) under "on my mac".
4. I then imported them into those new folders on the Mac into the "Icloud" calendars I created moments ago. Be sure when you import you SELECT that calendar.
5. Once that is all done you can delete the calendars "on your mac" so there aren't duplicates.
6. NOW all your events should sync. Apparently Icloud doesn't sync calendars "on the mac" only in the "icloud", which is obviously different from what mobile me did.

HT1414 appointments made on iphone are not syncing to the gmail calendar on my pc

When I put appointments on my Iphone, they do not sync to my calendar in gmail. This was not a problem, until my gmail was hacked, and I had to change my password. I changed the password on my phone also, but it seems this problem arose after this occurred. I have rebooted the phone, tried deleting the account and reinstalling, updating my software.............and it still is a problem. Any ideas?

I had the same problem you're having. I recently changed my password on my Apple account and likely messed up my iCloud from syncing. In exploring my Calendar on my Mac I seemed to have solved this problem. I opened File and clicked on New Calendar. This gives you more options, such as iCloud, on my Mac, or Gmail. I chose iCloud and my calendar synced immediately. I now have an extra calendar on my Calendar, but it's working.

HT1386 New Contacts I have put in my Iphone are not syncing back to my PC.

My Itunes crashed on the weekend, it vertually wiped itself clean and prompted me (with a license agreement) to reinstall. since then, information on my IPhone (Contacts) will not sync back to the PC. Its only one way now - PC to Iphone, it used to be both ways.
As I had to set up my iTunes again entirely I'm sure there is a confiuration I can set to do this but I cant find it.
Regards Mark
