MacBook Pro won't sync with other devices

My MacBook pro won't sync with other devices in the house.  My iPad and iPhone sync OK but MacBook won't for some reason.  Can you help?

Sign into your account in iTunes - from that page you should be able to deauthorise ALL 5 authorised computers - supposedly you can do this once a year.
Thereafter any devices you no longer have will be deauthorised, and you can reauthorise those you still have or are new.

    Hi Jetjuice!
    I have an article that can help you troubleshoot this issue a little further and can provide you with some more steps to take in attempting to resolve this issue:

  • My Macbook pro won't sync with my iPad. It says it isn't authorised.  I have gone as far as deauthorizing all computers then authorizing the Macbook & still no luck.  Any ideas?

    My Macbook pro won't sync with my iPad. It says it isn't authorised.  I have gone as far as deauthorizing all computers then authorizing the Macbook & still no luck.  Any ideas?

    Sorry, not sure how to screenshot on my computer, but this is what is says word for word:-
    The Ipad could not b synced because the computer is not longer authorised for purchased items that are on this ipad.
    To authorise this computer for items purchased from the iTunes Store, choose Store>Authorise this computer.
    I have done all of that but not luck.  That's when I tried deauthorising all computer which it did ok.  I then authorised my Macbook pro again, it said I had one computer now authorised.  I tried to delete apps via Itunes then sync to my iPad, but the above message keeps popping up & it wont do what I want.

  • Notes won't sync with other devices

    No problems sharing notes, calendar entries, and contacts info until just recently.  Now the Notes app on my MacBook Pro will not connect with the iCloud.  My other devices, iMac, iPhone, and iPad, all communicate with each other with the cloud, but not the MacBook.  When I open Notes in the MacBook it says "updating" forever.  Also, when running the Mail Connection Doctor everything connects ok except for iCloud IMAP.  The details posted are
    INITIATING CONNECTION Mar 09 20:32:55.268 [kCFStreamSocketSecurityLevelNone] -- host:p02-imap.mail.me.com -- port:993 -- socket:0x6000002c83b0 -- thread:0x60000146a000
    CONNECTED Mar 09 20:32:55.410 [kCFStreamSocketSecurityLevelNone] -- host:p02-imap.mail.me.com -- port:993 -- socket:0x6000002c83b0 -- thread:0x60000146a000
    Now, Calendar and Contacts communicate to and from the MacBook through iCloud ok, but still not Notes.  Driving me nuts.  Any ideas? 

    Notes syncing uses IMAP.  Try going to System Preferences>iCloud, uncheck Notes, choose Delete from Mac (your data will still be in iCloud), restart your Mac, then go back and check Notes again.
    If that doesn't help, go to System Preferences>iCloud, click Sign Out, choose Delete at all of the prompts, restart your Mac, then go back and sign back in.  (This deletes the account and iCloud data from your Mac but not from iCloud.  Your data will download back to your Mac when you sign back in.)

  • MacBook Pro won't sync with iCloud, although iPhone and iPad are fine.

    My MacBook Pro keeps telling me it can't sync with iCloud because my password may be incorrect. I keep re-entering the correct password, but this keeps on happening. iCloud seems to be working fine with iPhone and iPad.  Also, there are 2 iCloud accounts showing on my MacBook, but if I try to delete one, it seems to delete both.

    Your signature says you have 10.3.x but presumably this can't be correct - could you please make sure it's correct to prevent confusion. 10.7.2 is required for iCloud - your Mac won't be able to sync with pre-Lion systems.
    The fact that you have iCloud accounts showing does suggest you have Lion: are they showing in System Preferences>iCloud, or where? You can only enter one there.
    Are the two different or the same? You could try deleting both and then starting the setup again from scratch.

  • MacBook Pro won't sync with iPhone but iPhone does

    Since upgrading MacBook Pro to OS X Yosemite and each of iPhone and iPad to iOS 8.1.2, whilst appointments made on iPhone and iPad appear on Calendar in MacBook Pro, those made on MacBook Pro don't appear in Calendars on my iPhone and iPad. Tried iTunes sync with cable, WiFi while connected to power, have read Forums, etc but no luck. Effectively "One way sync" only. Has any one else experienced and rectified this issue??

  • Macbook pro won't sync with Treo 650 via bluetooth.

    I can only do one sync with Windows XP before the comm ports fail and I have to reboot the computer to be able to do a sync with my Treo 650 via bluetooth. It works well but only once then the ports all shut down of something. Any suggestions would be apprectiated.

  • ICal on MacBook Pro does not sync to other devices

    I'm lost ... we have an iMac (10.8.3), a MacBookPro (10.7.5) 3 iPads (1/5.1.1 - 2/6.0.2 - Air/7.0.4) and an iPhone (6.1.3) syncing calendars via iCloud. Everything works great EXCEPT when we enter an event in iCal on the MBP .... it does not sync to the other devices. Entries on all other devices sync fine to all others, but not when they're made in iCal on the MBP, these will only show up on the MBP. I've compared settings of the iMac and the MBP and all seems fine. I'm at a loss and have no idea where to look or what to do to resolve this. Is there anyone here who can point me in the right direction? Thank you very much!
    P.S.: not sure whether I should post this in this iCloud community or whether I should post it in an iCal community. Sorry.

    Open iCal on your MBP and go to iCal>Preferences>General and make sure the Default Calendar is set to an iCloud calendar and not and On My Mac Calendar.  If it is set to an iCloud calendar, try adding any missing events from the calendar on your MBP to the calendar on icloud.com.  Once all the MBP events are on the calendar on icloud.com, go to System Preferences>iCloud, uncheck iCal (Calendar), choose Delete from Mac (they will still be in iCloud), restart your Mac, then go back and check iCal (Calendar) again.
    If events added to your MBP still don't sync to iCloud, go to System Preferences>iCloud, click Sign Out, choose Delete at all of the prompts, restart your Mac, then go back and sign back in.  (This deletes the account and iCloud data from your Mac, but not from iCloud.  Your data will reappear on your Mac when you sign back in.)

  • Calendar on Macbook Pro won't synch with iCloud

    Calendar on my Macbook Pro won't synch with the Calendar on iCloud. I tried a number of times to delete Calendar from iCloud in System Preferences then restart the laptop. I also switched the 'enable' function on and off in Calendar Preferences. I restarted after every attempt and also refreshed. It looks as if it's updating but then nothing happens and the triangular, exclamation mark appears, grayed out, next to the iCloud icon in Calendar. I saw an answer in the Apple Support troubleshooting section regarding this about the server having to access port 80 or 443. Could this be the problem and if so then how would I make any port accessible to the relevant server? I'm not having this problem with my other devices or computer.

    Hello Wateru,
    Thank you for providing the details of the calendar issue you are experiencing with your MacBook Pro.  You have taken some really good troubleshooting steps already.  I recommend continuing with the steps in the sections titled "General troubleshooting" and  "Troubleshooting on OS X" in the following article:

  • Macbook Pro won't boot with external HDD plugged

    I have a weird problem. My late 2008 Macbook Pro won't start with external HDD plugged either FW or USB... The screen stays white until I unplug it and then the Apple logo is there.
    Anyone know any solution for this? Or anyone have the same problem

    yeah I had the exact same issue with one of my 750GB externals too. I just left it for a while (about an hour or so) and it was fine..
    I believe its so slow because the system is indexing the drive, which can be a very slow process if the drive is big, has a complex folder-hierarchy, and/or is fragmented.
    Does the hard-drive appear quite quickly in Finder once OS X has started up? if its slow it may confirm what I've just said.

  • My Macbook Pro won't print with my HP Photosmart 7515. I get the following message, " Print file was not accepted" Printer does work with our PC??

    My Macbook Pro won't print with my HP Photosmart 7515. I get the following message, " Print file was not accepted" Printer does work with our PC?? Checked for software updates and are none. Talked with HP help and they say it's an Apple problem

    I noticed that you said you uninstalled the printer, but you didn't mention resetting the print system.  Resetting the print system will reset the drivers the Mac has installed and make them work like they should.  Give this a try and see if it gets the printer working like it should.  The document below will expalin more about doing this.
    Basic Printer Troubleshooting Steps for Mac
    If that doesn't help, see if you are using the AirPrint driver, or the printers driver.  By default 10.8 uses the AirPrint driver if the printer supports it, so I'm betting that's the driver you're using.  If it is, try using the driver for the printer itself.  To do this, access Print and Scan.  Click the + sign to add a new printer.  Select the printer from the list.  Click the dropdown next to Use and select the 7515's driver.  Let me know what happens.

  • TS3988 My ipad don't sync with other devices

    My ipad don't sync with other devices. It works in my iPhone, IMac. At iCloud web page is ok also, but not in my IPad. The settings are the same in both my IPhone and my IPad.

    Make sure you are using the same Send & Recieve address on the iPAa as you are using on the iPhone (and that it is an address registered with your AppleID).

  • Macbook pro won't boot with two new 4GB RAM sticks.

    I have a mid 2010 Macbook Pro. It came with two 2GB RAM sticks. After downloading Lion, my computer started to get sluggish so I thought I would upgrade the ram. I bought two 4GB Corsair RAM sticks and tried to install them. My computer will boot up if I install one of the new 4GB sticks and leave an old 2GB stick; but it won't boot with both of the new 4GB sticks. Any ideas?
