Apps not sync'd / fail to launch

Have apps that had been installed by a friend (=not on our account) directly onto our iPad. Apps had not been sync'd to iTunes yet. Now they fail to launch : just give an on-and-off blink then back to the homescreen.
First tried to get the apps onto iTunes via the "File / Transfer apps from iPad to computer" in iTunes - this failed so could not put the troublemakers into iTunes. Then tried to get the apps to work again. Solutions I found regarding "apps that fail to launch" included taking them off the iPad then putting them on again via iTunes - this doesn't work since I fail to get them into iTunes in the first place. Seem to be turning around in circles. HELP ?!

The apps will not work because you are not logged into the ID that was used to purchase the apps. If someone else downloaded apps with another ID on your iPad, you need to be using that ID on your iPad in order to get the apps to work. The apps will not transfer into iTunes either unless you are logged into that user's ID in iTunes.
It is not a good idea to download apps from someone else's account on your iPad.

Sick of apps not syncing... What next?

I am sick to death of my apps not syncing/downloading between my devices.
In summary: iPhone 4s and an iPad. Both on same apple id and both have iCloud turned on and the apps, books and music sliders in settings>store are on across both devices.
My apps will sometimes appear on my iPhone when purchased on my iPad but will NEVER appear on my iPad when purchased from my phone. I have even set a new password so that it meets the new requirements for passwords thereby containing uppercase, lowercase, numbers and characters but nothing.
I have taken both devices to "out of the box" state but nothing works.
I need this to work but it fails to do so and I am now running out of ideas as to what to do next.
Help?
Is it in iTunes that something is going wrong or am I clutching at straws?

I am having the same problem too!!!! I spent 2 hours on the phone with apple care last night, another 4 hours this morning and 3 hours in the store this evening. The store got it working temporarily and then I got home and it stoped working. I believe itunes isn't keeping the passwords logged in and it's preventing the devices from syncing becuase it works if I log into check my acct from each device and then quickly download something. I have a ticket with the engineers, so hopefully i hear back soon.

Why do apps not sync -- it says computer not authorized. I tried unauthorizing my computer and then reauthorizing and I tried deleting the sc file. It still says the app is not authorized on this computer.

why do apps not sync -- it says computer not authorized. I tried unauthorizing my computer and then reauthorizing and I tried deleting the sc file. It still says the app is not authorized on this computer and I'm unable to sync this app that I previously had downloaded. Any help pls.

Did you download the app via that same iTunes account id ? Have you tried re-downloading it directly on your iPad (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519) ?

Enterprise ZMM App not syncing automatically

I have been deploying the ZMM Enterprise app to my end users devices over the last few weeks. What I have noticed is that the app states it will sync to the server automatically and without the app being launched. Yet in my environment it is not working that way. On Android the app seems to sync if the app is running but not in use. Once closed it stops running. On iOS if the end user doesn't have the app opened it will not sync. I lose all the location data as well as several other items that can be tracked. ie logs and such.
As anyone else seen this issue? Did I miss something in my setup and this should work correctly but I have a configuration error? I downloaded the app using https://zmmupdate.novell.com/apps
Also if someone from Novell is reading this... Why wouldn't you have this enterprise app placed on the ZMM server to be downloaded instead of going through Novell for the app? I have a separate post asking how to update the Enterprise app once it is in place with no response. I have read the docs and haven't found answers as of yet.
Thanks
Richard

Yeah if you use the enterprise app, especially on iOS, it's supposed to
report location, app inventory, and jailbroken status in the background
based on the connection schedule. If you're not seeing this I'm not
sure why. Since you originally had the app store app, even though
you've gone to the enterprise app, maybe try removing the ZMM app and
all the MDM profiles, then reenroll the device? Make sure to remove
enrollment before removing the app and profiles. See now if that works
after you reinstall the enterprise app and reenroll. If you still
don't have it reporting info in the background properly then I'd
suggest opening an SR.

As far as I know, you have to actually go and grab the new app for new
versions. You also have to go once a year and update the app because
Apple only allows enterprise apps to be signed for a year. As you
approach the one year deadline if you don't update the app you'll get
notices that the MDM profiles are going to expire.

I'm not aware of a way to do this but I'll ask.

Apps are a definite note. You can only manage apps that are pushed out
through ZMM. You can get a full inventory list to see what other apps
are installed but you can't do anything with them. I'm not sure about
iOS corporate resources but I believe it's the same thing with those as
well.

Updated Apps Not Syncing

For the past 6 weeks or so any updated Apps fail to sync with an unknown error message. I then have to delete the app from the phone, download again and then it works. This is a right pain and I am beginning o get well & truly fed up with it & Apple.
Any suggestions?
PS If anyone from Apple sees this, when are we going to be able to have customised ie downloadable SMS tones in the UK???

Right, just updated Amazon and the 2 messages (can't c&p) were
1) App not installed due to unknown error 0xE000001
2) Phone could not be synced unknown error 13014
These are the same messages I get whatever the app.
Now it's not even installing after I delete the app from the iphone & itunes, restart both & download from new!!

Mavericks Notes App not syncing with iCloud

The notes.app stopped syncing with iCloud after installation of Mavericks for users with networked home folders. Was previously working properly with Mountain Lion.
Notes syncing is enabled in icloud preferences.
Signing out of icloud and signing back in does not fix the problem.
Unselecting the notes checkbox and re-selecting has erratic effects->a) sometimes crashing the notes.app unrecoverably (app won't reopen after force quite). b) sometimes crashing the icloud system preferences altogether.
All other icloud apps work fine: contacts, calendar, reminders, etc. (all except icloud documents which is greyed out for users with networked home folders see: https://discussions.apple.com/message/23544576?ac_cid=tw123456#23544576 )
Any fixes or work-arounds? We use our notes app extensively and this is really debilitating.

I was having the same problem with Notes not syncing. I also got duplicate notes. I found that spryt's solution fixed my syncing problem and signing in and out of icloud on my local devices finally fixed the duplicating notes problem. I am not using a networked home directory. Using Mavericks OS and believe the problem started with the upgrade.
I did notice one peculiarity: on my iMac, it shows that I'm syncing notes to "All [email protected]". However, on my Macbook Pro, Notes shows I'm syncing to "All icloud". I tried to change my iMac to "All icloud", but I can't seem to find that preference. I hope they are one and the same.
Syncing is almost instantaneous across devices including iphone and ipad now. If I find that I encounter any more problems, I'll update this thread.

IPad Notes App. not syncing with iMac

I just set up my new iMac and began to sync my iPad (3rd Gen.) to the iMac over the iCloud with WiFi enabled. Seems like everything syncs except for the Notes App. on the iPad. When I open Notes on my iMac, I see "updating" listed on the title bar of Notes but nothing happens. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

App not syncing to ipod How do you fix this issue?

We have download many apps over the years, and never had this problem. My son tried to download Infinity Blade II, annd it will not sync to the ipod. It keeps saying "1 item cannot be synced. Check with Itunes for more info." Any suggestions on how to fix this problem. I did search Itunes for an answer, and they said, if problem persists, to contact the creator or the application.

Go to iTunes>Preferences>Advanced and clcik on Reset Warnings and try again. The look for why it will not sync.

Ipod Touch Apps NOT syncing (Bonus: manually managing smart playlist)

Can Someone Please Explain this to me simply?
1) I have a 32GB ipod Touch and it will NOT let me do anything with my apps from my itunes. I click on my ipod touch under devices on itunes. Then I click on apps next to summary and the entire section is grayed out in a way that I can not sync my apps nor arrange them how I would like to. Why is this happening and how can I fix it?
PLEASE help me with question 1.) FIRST
2)This question is just a little more general but I have been searching and not able to find the answer, but I like to manually manage my music from my itunes to my ipod touch in a way that my entire itunes library does not load on my ipod touch. However, I have a few SMART playlist in which I click and drag the entire SMART playlist to my ipod touch. However, I have a SMART playlist set up for recently downloaded/purchased songs in my itunes, yet every time I drag that SMART playlist to my itunes it adds ALL of the same songs including the new ones instead of simply only adding the new ones and skipping the songs already on the device...how would i fix this?

I seem to have found a way to fix this. For every app on the touch, I deleted the copy from Applications in iTunes and resynced to have iTunes get a new copy from the device. This seems to have corrected the problem.

Mountain Lion Contacts app not syncing properly

http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3998
Following the advice in the article DID NOT resolve my syncing issues with the contacts app. Contacts that I create on the Mac DO NOT sync to iCloud or my iOS device. However contacts created on my iOS device or iCloud DO SYNC to my Mac. I have done the following which HAS NOT resolved my issue.
1) Systems prefs ---> iCloud
2) Disabled and enabled Contacts
3) Rebooted
Is there anything else I can try?
Also I am still getting duplicates in my contacts and I am having to manually delete a number of entries even after following the advice in this article which cleared about 80 of my duplicates but thats all.
Thank you for your help
John

Please note that all my settings are exactly the same as they were in Lion. I do not use iCloud and I like to sync thru iTunes via WIFI and USB. After further research I have discovered that this issue is seems to be with Mountain Lion. Obviously, Apple needs to update iOS 5.1.1 or release a fix for Mountain Lion.

The Calendar app not syncing exchange

The Calendar app running on my iMac (10.10) is not syncing exchange. Exchange is syncing on my iPhone and my iPad - fully up to date. The exchange calendar on my iMac has a few exchange appointments appearing but not most of them.
any help greatly appreciated.

Back up all data. Make a note of the settings for the calendar account in the Internet Accounts preference pane, then delete it and recreate it with the same settings.

Notes app not syncing

since installing lion, the notes app no longer syncs. i can have the sync button ticked - by which i am told that notes will be duplicated - or not ticked, makes no difference.
syncing over the air isn't happening either (network is running fine), although it must have worked once since an ipad note appeared in mail on the macbook.
grateful for any pointers.

Email app not syncing Godaddy email accounts.

All,
I have the S3 and approximately one week ago, the email app stopped syncing my 2 Godaddy email accounts. The email app for Gmail is still working.
I've gone into
Settings > Application Manager > All > Email > Clear Data
and then again setup my Godaddy email accounts. This then syncs all the email again and I will get all current messages in my mail spool. However it goes right back to not syncing anything new.
I've tried putting it in airplane mode as I saw a post that that may help, but no. I've also removed the battery and let it sit, to see if that had any affect, but again no.
Has anyone else ran into this and if so, what have you done to correct this.
I am aware of the godaddy app, however I'd rather not use this, I kinda prefer the native samsung email app.

If you search on this forum and compare popular web hosting providers like Bluehost, Hostgator and Godaddy you will see many users have such problems with their email apps. First it seems your problem comes from your cellphone. But it is surprising that I had the same problem when I had a web and email hosting account with Godaddy and their customer service couldn't solve my problem and finally I moved my email hosting account to Bluehost and the problem automatically was solved, without any action!
So I recommend to you and any other users with similar problems to change your email hosting provider. Now that you are unhappy with Godaddy I recommend to try http://www.bluehost.com or http://www.hostgator.com companies.
I have the S3 and don't have any problem with syncing my Hostgator email accounts. So If I were you first I'd try Hostgator.

Apps not syncing between iPad 3 and iPhone4S

I recently noticed that my apps aren't in sync with each other between my iPad and iPhone.
For instance, on the iPhone lets say I have Mail and Twitter accounts set up to automatically notify me when I have messages.
So if my iPhone shows I have 4 mail messages and 2 tweets, my iPad would show no messages or tweets.
This is similar to iPhone iMessage texts not syncing to my MacBook Pro iMessage app.
I can't seem to find an answer to this as it was working before the iOS7 update.
Any ideas?

OK. I have solved it for my computer:
First need to make sure that in iCal (on the Mac laptop) an iCloud account is activated (under preferences/accounts), then need to select one of the iCloud calendars (any one of them, doesn't seem to matter which) as the default calendar (again under preferences/general). Need to do same on iphone, if this hasn't been done previously (I had already done this though).
After that, any new appointments made on the laptop seem to appear on iCloud. To move over the old appointments, have to select each one individually and change the calendar from the 'on my mac' to the equivalent iCloud one (all the calendars have an iCloud duplicate).
Still getting a couple of duplicates around invited & repeat appointments, but should resolve eventually once I start making all my appointments on the iCloud calendars.
Cheers ;-)
