Sync phone book and calendar by iTunes

After I install Mavericks in my iMAC, I cannot sync my phone book and calendar from iPhone to Mac by iTunes, how can I do?

Hi Mayday_anna,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Since you've updated to Mavericks, you can sync your contacts and calendars using iCloud:
If you use OS X Mavericks v.10.9 or later, your contacts, calendars, and other info are updated on your computers and iOS devices via iCloud. For more information, see iCloud Help at icloud.com.
This information comes from the article on how to sync contacts and calendars using iTunes on Mountain Lion and earlier:
iTunes 11 for Mac: Sync contacts, calendars, and other info with iPod, iPhone, or iPad

All the best,

Sync Outlook contacts and calendar with iTunes between iPhone 4 and Outlook 2010 (32bits) USB only manually, not automatically.

Hello guys,
After disabeling and enabeling the option automatic sync iPods, iPhones and iPad in iTunes (settings > devices), my iPhone 4 is only syncing manually and not automatically as before the option change.
With manually sync I mean connecting the usb cable and pushing the synchronisation button in iTunes. I reinstalled Outlook (Office 2010 32bit) and iTunes but it did not solve the problem and it's still only manually syncing. I also renewed the Windows Profile. Is there an option I missed in iTunes or Outlook? In Outlook is the iTunes Outlook Addin present and enabled....
How can I solve this problem?
Thanks, William

Hi, could you specify what you did. It appears that nothing on my iPhone syncs any more. I have an iMac and iPhone 4 running the latest system updates. Thanks!

Sync address book and calendar 8830 with 8130 via DM

I just changed from using an 8130 and now use an 8830. I assumed I could use DM to backup my 8130 and then restore it to my 8830. However, when I do this, many items do migrate, but not 2 of the most important ... my address book and calendar. Both are personal devices and are not linked with any work email server, so that's not the issue. I do notice that in the backup file from my 8130 the address book is called "Address Book - All" and similar with the calendar. However, with the 8830, it is labeled as only "Address Book". I'm wondering if this is the problem? I'm hoping someone can help me get my address book and calendar migrated to my new device.
Thanks!
BTW, I already tried wiping the new 8830 ... that did nothing.

In Desktop Manager, use the application Switch Device Wizard.

What exactly is the process that syncs address book and calendar to google?

I have been syncing with google somewhat successfully for the past 6 months or so, but I am still confused about exactly how it's working.
I have my calendar set up as a caldav account, and it appears to be working fine. I would like to know if calendar still syncs even if the calendar application is not open. I tend to leave it open, but I don't know if that is necessary. Also, I don't understand if calendar has anything to do with isync. I am referring to the little isync icon in the menu bar. Does a caldav account have anything to do with that, or does it sync on its own?
The address book is a little more confusing. From what I have figured out, it only syncs manually by clicking the little isync icon in the menu bar. Is that correct? Is there no way for it to sync automatically like I think caldav accounts do in calendar? Also, I wonder about the application here too. Does the application have to be open for address book to sync with google?
Thanks, I hope someone can explain this a little better!
PS- I am actually running 10.6.8, but don't see an option for that in my product details.

I could sit here and do a bunch of tests, I suppose. I'd have to disable my internet connection before opening the ical and address book applications to see if it syncs without being open. Because I assume it could just refresh upon launching the application. I wish someone could just gice me a clue here. Anyone?

How can I sync my contacts and calendars through iTunes again?

Since I upgraded to 2.0.1 I used to sync my iPhone over the air. Now that I'm going abroad I'd like to sync through iTunes again, to avoid high roaming costs. But I can't find a way to tell iTunes to sync calendars and contacts again. It tells me that these data are synced over the air and there is no checkbox or preference setting to change this...

Is this with a MobileMe account?
If so, you need to turn off syncing over the air for contact information, calendar events, and bookmarks via your MobileMe account settings on your iPhone.
Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Select your MobileMe account.
Turn Contacts, Calendars, and Bookmarks Off.

Sync Address Book and Calendars

I have an iPhone, a PC at work that uses an Exchange server, a PC at home that uses Outlook to POP mail from my personal email account, and an iMac at home that also POPs mail from my personal account.
My iPhone is set up to get mail from both my work (Exchange) account and my personal account.
I have a separate contacts folder at work (Exchange) with personal contacts, and a business contacts folder. I have a single Calendar at work that contains both personal and business information.
My iPhone has both contact folders and the calendar. I would like to be able to sync what is in my iPhone to my work, my personal PC and my iMac. If I make a change at any location, I would like the change to propagate to all other locations. I would also like to be able to see my calendar from all locations.
I started a trial membership to MobileMe yesterday. It created 2 calendar folders on my personal Outlook (Home and Work), but they are both empty. It has not synchronized my contacts. It has also created Home and Work calendars on both my iPhone and in iCal, but again, both are empty.
I did a sync from iTunes in my iMac and my personal PC. I did not do anything with my work PC. My iPhone is setup for Exchange ActiveSync.
Am I missing something, or does the system not have the capability of syncing everything as I had hoped?

Pick one of the two accounts and sign both of them into it?

Maverick won't permit syncing Address Book or Calendar by USB to iPhone or iPad and permits only syncing by iCloud, which I don't want to use. Any ideas on how to sync without using iCloud?

Maverick won't permit syncing Address Book or Calendar by USB cable from my MacBook Air to my iPhone and iPad and permits syncing only by iCloud. Mountain Lion permitted this via the Info tab on iTunes. I don't want to use iCloud. Any ideas with Maverick on how to sync Address Book and Calendar from computer to iPhone and iPad without using iCloud?

ymcneil - thanks for the work around. But isn't it amazing Apple forces us to do this to maintain our privacy.
I live in Australia where there are good privacy laws protecting citizens. I do not want to be forced to use iCloud when the data sits in the USA with weaker privacy laws and also able to be seen by the US Government under the Patriot Act. Further I suspect Apple will interrogate my contacts and calendar for commercial purposes and I do not want that either.
I chose to synch my calendar and contacts with my iphone and ipad. I have relied for years on carrying around my phone with my diary on it. I can no longer do that.
Whoever made this decision at Apple has to be someone who knows little about the world. I can actually see EU regulators getting very annoyed by this.
I too woud like the itunes mac to iphone/ipad local backup given back.
In the meantime - thanks for the work around

Address book and calendar sync from Mac to Google

Hi,
I have a HTC Desire phone and wish to sync my Contacts and Calendar items to it via Google.
I have pulled my Address Book and Calendar from my old p1i phone on to my old Power Book and exported these. I have then imported these onto my Macbook Pro running Snow Leopard.
I now want to sync these up to a Google account.
In my address I have ny contacts and also my girlfriend's. I wish to sync only my Contacts up to Google. Is this possible?
I have tried configuring iCal to sync with Google via calDAV but I am not seeing my Calendar entries in Google (or a way of doing a manual sync from Mac -> Google)
Apologies if these questions have been asked and answered previuosly.

When you connect your iPad to the Mac, on the device's Info tab in iTunes do you not get the option of where to sync your contacts and calendar from ?

ITunes won't sync my contacts and calendars

Hello all,
I'm having some trouble syncing my contacts and calendars to my iPod, because iTunes say's it doesn't have any available, and then it asks me to open that application.
This started after I forcibly shut down my computer.
I've tried replacing the information by deleting all of my contacts and calendars, and restoring using the Backup application, and I still got the same message asking me if I wan't to open iCal/Address Book.
Any solution will be appreciated.

The most likely solution is to launch iSync
application ,and then in the preferences menu, click
on Reset Sync History button. This resets
configurations for the iTunes iPod sync process that
is dependent on the iSync system database system.
Is this the only way to do this? I am sic and tired of reseting my sync data as .Mac seams to have plenty of it's own issues. I use several computers Two for work and an extra at the office and one extra at home that I would have to then on the next sync accept all of the diolog boxes to get the most recent sync data on each computer. What a pain in the ... Not something that I want to do again as I have done it about 4+ times in the last month.

HT1386 I just downloaded four books through iTunes. I tried 5 times to sync the books onto my iPhone. They do not appear on the iPhone. Previously purchased books had synced fine. I selected sync all books; and also tried selecting all books individually.

I just downloaded four books through iTunes. I tried 5 times to sync the books onto my iPhone. They did NOT appear on my iPhone. Previous books synced without problems. I tired syncing ALL books, and also selected book by selecting the new books. No luck. What do/can I do now. iTunes prevents me downloading again. The books show on the computer.

You got the new iphone????? I have same problem. I transferred audiobooks to device to find no audiobooks on device (despite it being in iTunes as if it was). Have you found a solution????? I even tried to change import settings on format transfer but hasn't worked.

I just got a new iPad 2 and I have lot of questions. I was able to wirelessly link my iPad and iTunes on my PC. I was able to SYNC my email and calendar (new only no history), however I have not been able to SYNC Outlook contacts.

I just got a new iPad 2 and I have lot of questions. I was able to wirelessly link my iPad and iTunes on my PC. I was able to SYNC my email and calendar (new entries only no history), however I have not been able to SYNC Outlook contacts. Outlook has multiple contact lists. Only one has any data. I can't find a way to delete the others and I can't keep the one I want to use at the top of the list. Any ideas?
I have a question about email. I have several thousand emails in 10 or so days. How can I select multiple emails for deletion in stead of one at a time? How do I designate emails from a given sender as junk or block certain senders?
Ron

the spcs page on this site state which video formats the ipad supports
I'd suggest converting your old videos to one of those formats
handbrake is a free program which does this for you
itunes used to be able to too when I right clicked incompatible media but don't see the option any more
or maybe it only show when one right click incompatible media and currently my lib don't have any
about the music then it's odd what formats are they?
if they are acc protected have you tried to remove the DRM this can be don using itunes as
apple don't use DRM for music any more

ICloud Address Book and Calendar not syncing. Missing and duplicate entries. Help.

I have duplicate entries in Address Book. I have missing entries on other devices. For calendar it just doesn't sync.
What I've done to try to fix it:
1) I signed out of all my devices from iCloud and MobileMe.
2) I then deleted all the the cache files in Library and any iCloud folders I could
3) I deleted all the address book and calendar entries on each device.
4) Went back and deleted anything in Library and caches.
5) I looked at iClould.com and confirmed they had entries in Address Book and Calendar.
6) Signed back into iCloud on each device.
7) All the devices then began to populate.
Trouble began:
1) Some Address Book entries are missing on devices.
2) iClould has multiple entries for the very missing contacts! All cutting off the notes field at different places!
3) It won't sync the missing contacts present on iCloud but not the device.
Help.

Solved it myself. What I did:
1) I have four Lion OS and two iOS devices.
2) I kept one computer with the complete address book I wanted to start with but disconnecting it from iCloud's Contact sync via Apple Menu > System Preferences > iCloud uncheck Contact Sync
3) Logged into iCloud.com and deleted all the contacts and groups manually ( many keyboard shortcuts worked )
4) On the main computer, using textedit, I replaced semicolons I was using to delimit items in the notes field with backslashes.
5) Once I confirmed all the other computers and devices had no entries in Address Book, on the main computer I turned back on iCloud Contact syncing. It worked. Correct count of entries and no more breaking notes at the semicolons!
6) Immediately all the other iCloud computers and devices updated to the correct notes! Finally.

I cannot synchronize the Address Book and Calendar data, even by means of iCloud or similar servers. It appears these data are not selected automatically during synchronization. How can one select Address Book and Calendar Book in Mavericks for synchronization ?
