Why doesn't my e-mail sync?

I've noticed just lately that the e-mail I send from my I-Phone 4 does not show up in the Mail Program on my macbook. I do not use the cloud, and I have I-Tunes set to sync with my computer. I have a gmail account.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks!

An Exchange or IMAP account is required for keeping server stored mailboxes synced with the server with email client used to access the account.
A Gmail account can be accessed as an IMAP account with the Mail.app on your Mac and with the iPhone's Mail app. This along with storing the account's Sent mailbox on the server with each email client is required for this.
Email account mailboxes and messages are not included with the iTunes sync process.

Why doesn't my iPhoto library sync properly to my iPhone/iPad?

Why doesn't my iPhoto library sync properly to my iPhone and iPad? I have already tried deleting the iPod photo cache. I sync the entire iPhoto library, which includes about 8,000 photos. The Events and Albums never match up, with many missing photos in most albums and events.

Thats is how I did it originally and tried it that way again but it never brings in my library. Now it gives me a response saying it doesn't have correct permissions. I'm the only user on the iMac. I did recently move the library from my old iMac iPhoto with no trouble.

Why doesn't my Sent mail show up in iCloud on my iPhone?

Why doesn't mail I have sent from a MacBook show u in the Sent folder of my iCloud account on my iPhone ? There isn't anything in the Sent folder on the phone. Aren't they supposed to sync?

Does your MacBook have "Store sent messages on the server" set in your iCloud account? It should, if you want the iPhone to be able to see messages sent from the MacBook.

Why doesn't my incoming mail sound work

I am using Mail 3.3 and in the preferences I have a "new mail" sound .wav file in the general tab
and the box is checked for the "play sounds for other mail actions". The "other mail actions" sounds are working, and when I recheck the .wav sound it plays fine in the sample mode. However, the sound doesn't play in regular receive mail mode. Anybody have a suggestion?

This problem has been had since Tiger came out, there are so many posts about this, the one above is 5 pages long.
I posted this post below on the 15th September 2007 -
+At Least I Am Not The Only One+
+It was good to hear the same problem I've had for ever.+
+I was listening to Leo LaPorte's radio podcast and a lady rang in said her few months old iMac would only play the email arrive sound occasionally. She rang Apple but they couldn't fix the problem, so she rang Leo.+
+At least I'm not the only one and Leo did not know how to fix it either, except to say to check System Preferences/Sound, and I know this makes no difference.+
+I just hope Apple were listening and fix Mail some day.+
I have asked here several times and on other forums and also reported to Apple, I have tried so many different ways to fix the problem including full format erase and new install, but all to no avail.
Thunderbird works perfectly and will play any sound format, why not Apple Mail.
I first thought Leopard would fix this, then the 10.5.5, but no.
So disappointing.

Why doesn't my iPhone calendar sync with my Mac-neither ICloud or USB connections work.

My iPhone calendar will not sync with my MacPro either by iCloud or USB connection.

Let's compare the settings on the Mac, I'm also using iCal on my MacBook Pro OSX10.9.5.
iCal/Settings/Accounts -> iCloud CalDAV selected and activated, set to "push"
On the phone:
Settings/Mail, contacts, calendars: Syncing all events in calendar.
And in calendar app "iCloud"->"All calendars" selected.
I have no calendars selected in "On my iPhone"
Are you also syncing contacts via iCloud? If yes, does it work between the Mac and iPhone?

Why doesn't my entire playlist Sync?

I have many playlists that this is happening with. I have a iPhone 6Plus. For example, one playlist on my iMac has 98 songs in it. I have that playlist set to sync with my iPhone. After the sync is done out of the 98 songs only 26 show up on the iPhone. Another example, a playlist that has 669 songs on iMac only syncs 395 of them. There doesn't appear to be a common thread. The songs that do sync are a combination of Purchased and ripped from CD, Not one or the other. If I turn on show all music on the iPhone they are all there with the balance having a cloud for download next to them. I even tried doing a iPhone reset and started from scratch. No help there either. (side note. If you reset to factory you have to redo all your Apple Pay cards... a P.I.T.A.!) Anyone have ideas? Oh, and also, this is a 128gb iPhone, so it's not a space issue. There is 30+ GB of free space on phone. Phone and iMac are both updated with the newest software.

New information. Looking a little closer, it looks like all the songs that are not syncing are all Purchased tracks. But some Purchased tracks DO sync.

Why doesn't my address book sync with my phone?

Hi everybody,
I have used isync with my Nokia 6230 ever since I got my first Macbook Pro (had loads of trouble with the first one, and finally support changed it for me: LONG STORY). Today, I was syncing my phone as I normally do and I noticed that nothing happened. To my surprise, I looked at the phone only to find duplicate (sometimes triplicate) entries of every single contact. I erased all duplicate entries (real hard work..) and tried syncing it again. What happened was that the whole address book in my mac got erased. After that I tried to sync it again and again, but the contacts simply did not leave my cell phone and enter the computer's address book. They still don't and I'm pretty annoyed :-S!
I tried all the back up routine but nothing worked... I guess all the sync tries ended up ruining the address book's backup system. Since I did not make a backup of my address, I'm pretty stuck. Fortunately everything is in my cell phone but, as I said, I can't put it back in the address book for an unknown reason.
Any thoughts on what I should do?
Thank you very much in advance
João

Thank you Julian, I think your idea might end up in a solution.
Even though my phone (Nokia 6230) doesn't have the "Send all contacts" option, I tried to send an individual vCard for testing purposes: the address book accepted it with arms wide open (like that silly Creed song). Because I'm stubborn, I tried to sync my phone with my one-contact address book and ended up with two different people on my phone with exactly the same name and number (along with everybody else fortunately...).
I'm guessing if I do this for the WHOLE cell phone contact list, I'll have an address book on my mac by Christmas eve . I'll mark this question as answered when I'm done doing this and follow the rest of your advice.
This raises two important questions:
- What happened in the first place?
- Is Apple going to develop a more complete syncing software where weird things such as these do not happen?
Any thoughts on these issues? It really annoys me when I don't understand what's wrong with the equipment I use...
Thank you for your time and patience.

Why doesn't using EAS to sync Drafts from server to client work anymore?

Hi All,
I understand that uploading an email into a Drafts folder is not possible and has never been possible using Exchange ActiveSync.
It has always been possible, however, to download emails from the Drafts folder and to sync the Drafts folder like any other folder. Recently, however, I have been having problems performing this sync. These problems are occuring on Office-365. Other users
are also experiencing the issue. There is a thread discussing this issue on that site at: http://community.office365.com/en-us/forums/158/p/176113/525322.aspx#525322
Unfortunately, there is still no resolution forthcoming from the Office-365 support team, so I thought it might help to cross-post the problem here.
In short, the problem that I am seeing is that the GetItemEstimate command receives a Status of 4 indicating an invalid sync key. This is even though the Sync Key is known the be valid. If that issue is ignored, and a Sync command is sent, then there is no
error, but the incorrect information is returned. The information that should be returned is the 'Adds' for the folder. Instead, an empty reply is received, indicating that there is nothing to sync.
Here are the details from the interaction:

Hi Tom,
Thanks for following up on this and providing a definitive answer. It is much appreciated.
The decision they have made to block the Drafts folder syncing is mildly disappointing.
Unfortunately, the mechanism by which they are implementing this makes it a more serious issue.
Specifically, they should not be returning a Status of 4 in response to the GetItemEstimate for the Drafts folder. That Status of 4 effectively says, "Try Again". See section 2.2.3.162.6 of the MS-ASCMD document.
Instead, they should probably return a Status of 1 and an Estimate of 0. This would be the appropriate match with their empty collection in response to the Sync command.
Alternatively, they could return a Status of 2 indicating, "an incorrect folder was requested".
Or they could simply omit the folder from the FolderHierarchy response.
By returning a 4 and requesting that the client try again, they can cause the client to enter a continuous (and infinite) stream of GetItemEstimate requests. By following the documentation from 2.2.3.162.6, a client would get into this loop:
1) GetItemEstimate returns 'Invalid sync key'
2) FolderSync returns status OK
3) GetItemEstimate returns 'Invalid sync key'
4) FolderSync with syncKey 0 returns Status OK
5) goto 1
Thanks,

Why doesn't markup in Mail app work on screen captures or pasted images?

When in Mail app, If i right click and choose Capture selection from Screen I can take a screenshot which is inserted into the email. The markup icon in the top right of the image never appears. This is also true for images I copy and paste into the email. It seems to me that being able to markup a screen capture is one of the most important use cases for this type of feature.

SteveTEXAS,
When I right click and choose Capture selection. The image it places in the email will not show up on the recipients side. However if I use the Grab shortcuts on my Mac to take a screenshot then drag them in off the Desktop they not only show up on the recipients side, but Markup seems to work on them as well.
I have no idea what would cause this. I think it would be something important to provide feedback to Apple about. https://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html
You can find the Grab app in Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities
Or you can use the keyboard shortcuts to take a screenshot. They will place them on your desktop.
For a selection - ( Command ) ( Shift ) ( 4 )
To select a whole window - ( Command ) ( Shift ) ( 4 ) > ( Spacebar ) > Click Window you want
For whole display - ( Command ) ( Shift ) ( 3 )
Hope that helps,
Weston

Your icloud email isn't supposed to be setup manually on a system running mountain lion.
Go into system preferences, click the icloud icon, and check off mail there.
If you're trying to add an account associated with a different apple id, then set it up in mail, contacts and calendars and check off mail there.

Why doesn't my itunes library sync songs I've purchased with an old Apple id?

Hello all,
I've recently bought a replacement laptop, running Windows 7 & had my music library transferred from my old P.C successfully.
When I sync my ipod over 700 songs don't sync, but they're all available to play from the library.
At a glance it would appear the majority of these songs I've purchased from the itunes store at some point.
I'm advised that I will need to log in to the old itunes id to authorise this computer, but this is not possible as the email address has been deleted.
I contacted the bank from which the account was used to purchase these songs & the only debit card details they had on file were not the correct card.
So, where do I go from here? This is my music that I purchased legitimately from the itunes store & I want it all on my ipod which again, was legitimately purchased from Apple.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated!

You should have just switched the email address on your apple id to your new one, instead of creating an entirely new apple id.
But, go to appleid.apple.com and try to reset your password using the security questions method, instead.
If can't reset it via the email or security question method, then you have to call Apple: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57

Why doesn't my outlook diary sync automatically when I connect my iPhone? My music does.

I have just moved to a Macbook Pro and have authorised it with my iPhone on itunes. I have set up an account on iCloud.
When I plug in my iphone it automatically syncs my music and other media but not my outlook calendar.
Previously on a PC I had an Info tab that allowed me to configure calendar syncing but that doesnt appear to be an option on the Macbook.

Why doesn't ipad air 2 sync music

Has anyone been able to sync their music to the iPad Air 2? I've been at this all day today trying to get things on the ipad and somethings will go, some will act like they're not there, but they are, and some just refuse to go regardless of what you do.
I've even tried to manually sync the music and it still won't go.
BTW, I'm using the Windows version of iTunes.

As has been said many times already in these forums, the iPad 2 does not have the necessary hardware to properly support Siri.

Why doesn't the messages app sync with iphone

ive recently upgraded to montain lion and i cant seem to get the messages app to sync with my iphone. if i use the messages app on my macbook i cant continue the conversation my iphone. what am i doing wrong?

Hi,
You can also set the iPhone number by adding the Apple ID to the iPhone.
This links the iPhone Number to the Apple ID.
Soon afterwards a pop up messages will appear on the Mac saying the iPhone is using it's Number and the Apple ID (if it has not appeared in five minuted restart Messages)
Accepting add the phone number to Messages as a "Send From" and Receive option.
On both the iPhone and the Mac version of Messages you can then chose the "Send From " ID or iPhone number.

Why doesn't the iPod classic sync properly, and how do I fix it?

Notes
Before anyone mentions the lame suggestion of "Restoring", let me add that I have done that. Alot.
I'm pretty good with computers, so please get as nerdy as you want, just as long as you're only trying to help me.
This disscussion should only be about this particular problem, please refrain from posting you're problems to this (Make your own discussion).
If necessary, contact me via email if you need more information, or have other misc. questions or inqueries.
Basic Information
Product: iPod classic

Additional Details
The iPod works fine after immediate restoration, however, after adding 500 or so songs it seems to quit responding and appears to terminate communications with computer while freezing iTunes. After fiddling around I usually grow tired and unplug it and iTunes quickly displays a message saying to restore the iPod, although it's unplugged... This happens everytime, so it's not a rare situation for me. I've tried repeatedly on two Windows computers and a brand new Mac.

It is hit or miss whether replacing the cameras will resolve the problem. I would first try taking it apart and then carefully disconnecting and reconnecting the camera cables.
Since it both cameras it is likely not a problem with the logic board but still could be.
