Question: How do I sync contacts from my iPad to my MacBook Pro running Mavericks?

How do I sync contacts from my iPad to my MacBook Pro running Mavericks?

Contacts sync via iCloud.
Set up iCloud on your iPad and your MBP, with the same iCloud account on both, with the same Apple ID.
On the Mac you set this up with System Preferences > iCloud, and have Contacts checked in the box on the right.
It looks very much the same on the iPad, Settings > iCloud.
If you have set this up and it's still not working, then sign out of and then back into your iCloud accounts.

    Does your iPad and MacBook Pro use the same Apple ID for the iTunes store.

  • How do I sync contacts from my iPhone to my MacBook?

    I know there is a way to sync my contacts from my iPhone 6 to my Macbook (running on Yosemite)...but who can tell me how to do it?!
    Right now, my MacBook has all these random contacts but I want to be able to see all my iPhone contacts on my Mac; and if I change info on one device, I want it to sync across all my devices.
    I've got iCloud enabled and the contacts box check on both devices, but I don't see them merged? Any help would be appreciated!

    Log in to https://icloud.com. Do you see all of your contacts there? If you have iCloud enabled on the MacBook and the iPhone they should sync in near-real time. Mine all do. However, all of the contacts on the phone must be in a contact group that is synced to iCloud. If you have contacts from before you set up iCloud they may not be in a group that syncs. You will have to get a 3rd party app that allows moving contacts between groups on the phone, as the built in app cannot do that. There are several in the app store.

  • How do i sync photos from iphone over icloud to macbook pro?

    I am totally confused as to why photos taken on my iphone or ipad do not sync over icloud to my MacBook Pro.
    If I sync manually I end up with everything else such as calendar and contacts duplicated.
    How can I get the photos to sync over icloud?

    Photos taken on one device will sync to all devices via photo stream providing that all the devices are logged into the same iCloud account and photo stream is enabled on each of those devices.

  • How I could tranfer files from my iPad to my MacBook Pro without any software?

    I never found a method how to do transfering files between iPad and MacBook Pro without any software.
    Exist some method?
    If you know how to do it, please help me as faster as you can!
    THANK YOUU!!

    Hi,
    Unfortunately general file transfer is not currently supported on iOS devices. If you have apps installed on your iPad that support file sharing, you can exchange files with these apps by connecting your iPad to your computer and selecting the Apps tab on the device's page in iTunes. If you scroll down here, you will find a list of apps, that support file sharing, and you can copy file to/from the particular app, but there's no way of accessing the iPad's file system without 3rd party software, and even if you use one, it will be able to access the file storage areas of the file system, but not the OS root folder. You need a jailbroken device to do that.
    iTunes also copies all your photos and videos from your devices. The only official way of moving file between iOS devices is with iTunes. If you consider iTunes a software (it is one) than there's absolutely no way for that, if your device is not jailbroken.
    Just to be clear, I'm against jailbreaking, because it makes your device vulnerable, and can create a lot of problems, that would not exist on a factory device.
    Hope this helps
    Regards,

  • I have iCloud but I don't know how to access my documents from my iPad on my Macbook Pro.

    I have Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3. I have read some things as to how to access files from iCloud in iTunes; but this didn't work or maybe I am not doing it correctly. i just started a doument on my ipad and I want to know how to access it now on my MacBook Pro. Help!

    Go to www.icloud.com with Safari on the Mac. You will have to enter your username and password. iCloud will open to your account and there will be an iWorks icon that you can click on. Then you can click on Pages, Numbers or Keynote at the top. All of your documents should be in there. You can click on a document to download it. Follow the prompts if it asks what format you want.
    As far as I know - only the iWorks applications currently work with this feature.

  • How do I transfer photos from my iPad to my MacBook pro?

    I have been using my iPad 2 to save the photos that I have been taking while on vacation.  When I return home, I would like to transfer them to my MacBook Pro so that I can clean them up and edit them with iPhoto.  I have several hundred photos and do not wish to risk losing them through an error on my part.  I am assuming that it is an easy process, but I have not yet figured it out.  Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    is there not a application that will allow me to simply upload the images to the harddrive direct?
    using just the ipad and the harddrive - the reason being i travel a lot as a photographer and am trying reduce the weight and a ipad- blue tooth hardrive seems to be the best option if i can transfer between the two?
    any ideas
    thanks

  • How Can I sync contacts FROM my iPhone TO my AOL E-mail?

    How can I sync contacts FROM my iPhone TO my AOL E-mail? In other words, I want to keep all of my iPhone contact information intact and make AOL "mirror" it (and not wipe it out when I sync thru iTunes).

    The iPhone supports syncing contacts with Outlook 2003 or 2007, or with Windows Contacts with Windows, and with the Address Book or with the Entourage address book on a Mac.
    If you aren't currently using one of the supported applications on your computer for contact info - the supported address book application on your computer is empty, before syncing contacts enter one contact in the supported application on your computer. Make this contact up if needed, which can be deleted later. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data with the supported application on your computer, which you want to select.
    After this, you can export the contacts from the supported application on your computer that is supported for import by your AOL online address book - if AOL includes such an option.

    How do you Sync Contacts from iPhone to MacBook?
    Hi,  Does anyone know how to do this without the need for me to upgrade to Lion on my MAcBook Pro and use the iCloud?
    I put all my contacts into my iPhone and I'd like them now on my MAcBook Pro.
    Thanks,

    Click on your iDevice on the sidebar of iTunes and then go to the info tab at the top. check the box shown here:
    This will put the contacts from an iDevice to the computer. You can then check the same box on the (let's say iPad) that doens't have any contacts and they will go from your comp to your iPad.

    How do i sync my contacts from my iPhone with my macbook pro for messaging purposes?

    Hey dthompson2108, 
    Thanks for participating in the Apple Support Communities. 
    You can sync contacts between your iPhone and MacBook Pro using iCloud or iTunes.
    See this link for help with setting up iCloud on your computer and device(s):
    Apple - iCloud - Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices.
    Instead of turning on iCloud on your iPhone and Mac, you can sync using iTunes as explained in this article:

    All the best,

  • HT204150 how can i sync contacts from icloud to my iphone from pc

    how can i sync contacts from icloud to my iphone from pc

    I just went to icloud-contacts- OFF.  It asks if I want to keep my contacts on the phone and I said yes.
    Thanks so much.  Saved me a ton of time.
    One thing I noticed though is for my name, it used to have an image of a person.  That is gone now on my phone but on my computer.  Is that only in iCloud?
