Problem synching with MobileMe

I made a MobileMe gallery in iPhoto '09 on my iMac and synchronized with MobileMe. This worked fine and the gallery is available on line. Then I synchronized my Macbook Air and the gallery appears, but only about a third of the pictures are downloaded, the others just have a dotted white outline. I've tried re-synchronizing but with no improvement. Anyone know of a solution or seen this before? My other gallery's are all okay using the same method and I'm using OS-X 10.5.7 with all the latest updates applied.

I used to have that problem with mine and here is how I solved it. First, delete your contacts and calendars that are Mobile Me related on the iPhone. Next, create a unique contact on your phone that you don't have on your mobile me contacts, such as John Doe with a 111-111-1111 phone number. Next create a new contact that you didn't have on your mobile me calendar, such as "event: make mobile me work correctly from 12:00pm to 1:00pm." Now sync your phone with mobile me and when you hit sync it should give you the option to "merge contacts and calendars" or replace contacts and calendars. By clicking merge, this solved my problem of duplication. You can go back and delete the fake event and contact after merging. Hope this helps.

  • Problems synching with Palm Tungsten T3

    I am having problems synching with my Palm Tungsten T3 datebook to Outlook 2003.  It was working up until about a week ago.  When I try to synch, it works for a few items and then I get the error message Pilot connector "Unable to read application data".  I click OK and then it finishes.  Below is the information I get in my log:

  • Complex problems synching with Tiger 1.4.3 upgrade

    After finally getting the courage to upgrade to Tiger on my iMac G4, I do have problems synching.
    I have a Zire 21 Palm. Nothing worked so I upgraded the Palm Desktop Software to 4.2.1 as required. Went to HotSync Conduit settings and enabled HotSynch for this Palm device. Opened iSynch, went through the enable Palm synching. Get the message to finish setting up your Palm OS device you need to select the HotSynch conduit in HotSynch Manager. (But I thought I already did that.) Anyway, I press the hot button, after a while it says connecting to Palm device, but the job never stops. I have to cancel, and no data has been transferred.
    I ALSO have an iPod. I explore this, I plug the iPod in after upgrading the iPod software as suggested. I set the contacts and calendars panel to synchronize (and to update podcasts, too), Now iTunes keeps telling me it's updating my calendar and contact information. It tells me this for over an hour. I have to go some where, I cancel, when I come back, it goes back to its labor. I don't think it should take this long.
    I also think the .Mac synching isn't working quite right, but I'll settle for a solution to the other problems.
    Bottom line, I still have no way to carry my calendar around with me. Help is needed.

    Ok, here is a copy of the iSynch log. I had never looked at this before.
    11:15:46 AM Connecting to Jim Andris
    11:15:46 AM Device "Jim Andris" connected
    11:22:09 AM Warning Device "Jim Andris" synchronization cancelled
    You suggest reconfigure iSync so that calendars and tasks are turned off - and contacts are turned on - without making any other configuration changes
    I went in and changed all other conduits in the Hotsync Manager to Do Nothing EXCEPT FOR iSync conduit, which is enabled.
    Then I unchecked the Calendars and checked Contacts on the Zire 21 menu on the iSync panel. I pressed the hot button on the Zire at 9:23 am. It said “Connecting Jim Andris” (which is my user id) Then it switched to just Connecting… It is just spinning with about a tenth of the bar in blue.
    Later (10:15 am)
    In the Zire 21 log it says

  • IPhone Calendar data nit synching with MobileMe

    Since installing Snow Leopard my iPhone Calendar is not syncing with MobileMe. Contacts, bookmarks, and email all synch fine but not my calendar entries. This means the data is missing on my MPB and Power G5. Anyone else experienced this? Any solutions or do we have to wait for Apple to do something?

  • IPhone Calendar information missing while synching with MobileMe

    I recently noticed that my Iphone and MobileMe were not synching information on the calendars. After resetting my Iphone and turning off and restarting the option to sync the calendar (chose merge) from the Iphone it would still not work. However about an hour later I entered a new appt and at that time noticed that some of my previous appts were missing from the Iphone calendar. Checking the online MobileMe calendar, the new appt was there, so apparently the sync had started working again. It is then i noticed that all entries in my work calendar were missing for the last 2 months, but all entries in my home calendar were there??? Hours of Apple support calls yielded no help (would have to get to development engineering and no way to contact them directly, so check the forums) in getting the entries back. I am at a loss as to what to do!!! I am thinking that the Iphone database was somehow corrupted, yet I get no error records
    What i was wondering is, can the Iphone database be retrieved and checked for corruption?? and then restored back to the Iphone??

  • Problem Synching with Google Calendar

    Having difficulty syching 8900 with Google calendar. Downloaded google synch to phone. When I check the Calendar Properties it show Wireless Synchroniztion as "No". It won't let me change this.. When I try to synch. I get the message that says"Login failed, due to network problems, please check your settings" Service is with Tmobile. Not sure which settings are not right.

    The calendar options should say no. It will only say "yes" is if you're on a BES. I think I had that error when I first started using Google Sync a while ago. I think I just uninstalled and reinstalled the program after getting that error a few times and then I was able to log in and setup the program

  • Problems synching with a second computer

    Hi,
    I've searched the docs and forums but can find no help for the problem I am having synching my iPod with a second computer.
    When I plug it in it recognises it but only calls it "E/:" and does nothing else. The iPod screen just continues to say "Do not disconnect".
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Ric

    Thanks for your help folks, but after reviewing that document etc its not quite the same problem. The computer recognises the iPod as a mass storage device but doesn't show it in Windows Explorer. It does, however, show up in iTunes, but only as "E/:" (at home it comes up as "Ric's iPod") and cannot be updated.
    It is shown as "Update Manually" but I thought that is what I wanted as I'm trying to sync with a second computer?
    What I am trying to achieve is to be able to download the odd podcast or track while at work but more importantly to be able to upload my Nike+ data.
    Thanks again in advance!!

  • Saving iphone contact info prior to synching with mobileMe

    I have contact info on my iphone that isn't stored anywhere else; It has just been transferred from one cell phone to another for several years. I also have other contact info on Google Contacts, and have synched the goog info to mobileMe. Is it possible to save/upload the iphone's contact info to MobileMe without having to manually re-enter all this info into goog or mobileme? I can't seem to find a way to do this after a great deal of research.

    "The iPhone and iPod touch will also sync content bi-directional (with merge capabilities) when dealing with other data such as Contacts, Calendars, and Bookmarks."

  • Is anyone else having big problems synching with iTunes 11.1.3.8

    Hi is anyone else getting the same problems that I get with iTunes 11.1.3.8?
    iTunes is VERY slow to load. Then when I try to dowload updates it downloads the first update, then hangs saying "Processing File" It will stay like this until I restart the computer. Sometimes I get the Error Message: Err 3253.
    If I try to close iTunes and then reopen it, it WILL NOT OPEN!
    I have tried repairing itunes through the Control Panel.
    And I have tried deleting and the reinstalling it.
    Any help, advice etc gratefully accepted.
    Merry Christmas to all.

    Met,
    Here's a few temporary work-arounds that may work for you, hopefully you don't have a HUGE amount of apps on your iTunes that need updating.
    1.) Update all of the apps via your iPhone/iPad and then sync your device with your iTunes, that will update all the apps that you're unable to update via download on iTunes.
    2.) If the apps aren't on your iPhone/iPad and you've got the room, redownload them to your iPhone/iPad and sync your device. That will update the apps you're unable to update via iTunes, you can delete them off your phone/pad when you're done updating them on your computer.
    3.) Instead of "updating" the apps via the update section of iTunes, make note of what the app is, check that it's still available for download on the store (sometimes stuff gets pulled and you don't want to do this before you check) - once you've confirmed that the app is still available for download, instead of downloading it in the update section DELETE it (remove it entirely from your iTunes and send it to recycle) then RE-DOWNLOAD it fresh from the store, I've found that it's only the update section that hangs on processing, not the store section.
    Hope those help, that's what I did because I'm compulsive about keeping my apps and software up to date.

  • Keychain trying to synchronize with account not being synched with MobileMe

    Hey all,
    Everything installed fine. Got a message about syncing with a Laptop account that was stolen from me (not recovered) over a year ago. Keychain verification window is displayed and states... "To synchronize your keychain on this computer, enter the password for your user account on "XXXXXXXXXXXXX"
    The account that it is asking for is definitely the old account. Puzzled. I am hoping it is not still connecting, if it is, any way I can get info as to the user using it? It was password protected. I have not entered the PW in fear of what it may do. I also removed the laptop from the syncing computers list in MobileMe a week after it was stolen. Back to my mac was not running on the laptop, wasn't an option yet.
    Any help or insight would be great.

    This solved the issue for me;
    Locate the Keychain Utility in your Applications directory under Utilities.
    Launch Keychain Utility.
    Look for the fields whose Kind�is “.Mac Password.” (Unless you have changed the default Keychain configuration, it/they will be located under the “login” keychain).
    Select and remove the fields by pressing the delete key on your keyboard.
    Confirm the deletion.
    Close Keychain Utility.
    You will have to re-enter these passwords next time they need to be used (checking email, syncing to Mobile Me, etc.) and they will be “re-stored” in the Keychain.

  • Problems Synching with Desktop Software & Outlook

    I have the desktop software open and it recognizes my blackberry.  However when I click the arrows for synch btwn outlook and the blackberry it pops up an error box with no message.  When I click to the next screen it won't let me select an outlook profile. The Drop down box is empty.  Any suggestions?
    Thank you

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums.
    Very odd...no error message at all...in that case, all I can think to suggest is a totally clean start over...here's a procedure:
    I suggest the following steps (insert plenty of reboots of your PC...not just restarts, but full power down reboots). Also, it is advised that you be logged into the PC on an account with full admin rights. Further, under Vista/Win7, use the "Run As Administrator" option for everything.
    1) Remove your device OS update package from your PC (add/remove programs)
    2) Cleanly uninstall the RIM DTM software:
    KB02206 How to perform a clean uninstall of BlackBerry Desktop Software
    Some have reported that there are more registry keys to remove than are discussed in that KB
    Others have reported the use of a registry cleansing tool to also be helpful
    3) Get a fresh download of the RIM DTM software:
    https://www.blackberry.com/Downloads/entry.do?code​=A8BAA56554F96369AB93E4F3BB068C22
    Choose the version that is newest and (if applicable) compatible with your PIM (if you are synchronizing via USB):
    KB12268 Applications supported by BlackBerry Desktop Manager for synchronization
    4) Download (to your PC) a fresh copy of your device OS package from your carrier:
    http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/dow​nload_sites.jsp
    5) Install DTM to your PC
    6) Install (also to your PC), the device OS package
    7) Start the organizer configuration over:
    KB17022 How to configure organizer applications for synchronization using BlackBerry Desktop Manager
    Hopefully that will get things going again.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • Problems synching with Nike + Server

    After I end a workout, am I able to connect to the Nike server to transmit my workout data less than half of the time. The other times, I get an error message that the Nike server was unable to accept my data. This is totally glitchy! My iTunes is the most current available, and my iPod Nano is absolutely up to date.
    I have tried creating a new Nike account and the same problems persist. Has anyone else experienced this and if so, how do I fix it? I'm frustrated!!!

    Sounds like a problem with their website. You should contact them aboout it.

  • ICal not Synching w/ MobileMe

    Ok, so I have been using iCal on my Mac for years and everything has been working fine. I am able to view and update the calendars remotely using my two iphones and www.me.com. Recently, I have been adding and making changes to the calendars in iCal, but none of the changes are synching with MobileMe. I have tried automatic and manual syncs, but nothing works. Originally, I thought it was an iPhone issue that I could not see new events on the phone, however, even when I go out to the calendar at www.me.com, the new events are not showing up their either. The new events, however, are showing up when I publish a new version of the calendar, but not through MobileMe. I am thinking it is an iCal to MobileMe issue. Any suggestions?

    I am having the same problem with iCal not syncing. I have 3 Macs (iMac, Macbook, and G5 Tower) that are all normally synced using MobileMe and 2 iPhones that sync as well, but the computers just stopped syncing the other day. It seems to be an Apple problem but I don't know how to remedy it. I've tried what has worked for some other folks here where you changed the sync to the computer from the mobile me in sys prefs but once the main computer that holds the calendar has a change it messes up the others again. It's becoming very frustrating and I can't seem to get to the proper link on the support pages to get an Apple tech to help. I noticed on the Mobile Me page it says that they did an update the other day that could affect peoples syncing but it says it's now resolved. Not for me, anyone has any thoughts I'd sure appreciate it.

  • ICal not syncing correctly with MobileMe

    For the last week or so, ever since MobileMe was being updated, my iCal synching with MobileMe and iPhone has stopped working correctly. When I enter a meeting into iCal, it syncs to MobileMe and therefore my iPhone.
    HOWEVER, any new calendar entries from the iPhone (or MobileMe's website directly), do not show up on iCal even after i try to manually Sync them. Furthermore, if I change the time of a meeting or call on iCal, a DUPLICATE meeting is created in MobileMe, thus polluting my calendar on the iPhone and MobileMe with multiple entries. When I am on the road, I can't figure out which is the correct meeting anymore.
    Not sure if this is due to new iTunes or the update with MobileMe servers last week.
    Here is what I have done to troubleshoot this to date:
    - In MobileMe preferences, I stopped synching my MacBook with MobileMe and wiped out all of the data on MobileMe. I rebooted my MacBook, then, I Reset Sync Data from iCal to MobileMe. It seeded fine, but still doesn't show any appointments created from the iPhone or within MobileMe on my iCal after re-syncing.
    - I deleted my MobileMe account on my iPhone. Rebooted iPhone. Re-added my MobileMe account to the iphone and synched the calendar. The calendar syncs and shows up, but still no appointments created on my iPhone or within MobileMe show on my iCal.
    - I have also tried to NARROW the variables of my issue by not synching ANYTHING ELSE other than iCal (no contacts, mail settings etc.). To No avail, still doesn't work.
    Any suggestions?? I sense there is something cached in the bowels of my iCal settings, but have no idea to re-set them to re-enable synching.

    I solved the issue. I took a risk and wiped my MobileMe account clean one last time, then RESET SYNCH Data from my MacBook to MobileMe.
    Then, I crossed my fingers and deleted my calendars on my iCal desktop.
    I then, chose RESET SYNCH Data FROM MobileMe TO MacBook pro - effectively overwriting my iCal with the same data I just uploaded into MobileMe.
    The result? Everything started working again. I added meetings to my calendar with my iPhone and they showed up on my iCal Desktop (MacBook). Yeah!
