Calendar & Contacts do not Sync to iPhone via Active Sync
I've been trying to figure this out for 3 days now. I have searched all over this site and the Internet in general and nothing I have found has fixed the issue.
Basically, starting last week, my Push mail from Exchange started draining my battery from 100% - dead in about 8 - 10 hours. I turned off Push and my battery draining issues went away.
On Monday while searching the net for assistance with the battery draining issue I saw a suggestion to delete the account from the iPhone and re-add it. I did this and all h*ll broke loose.
Ever since adding the exchange server back in the following issues exist:
1. No contacts will sync over from my Outlook Mailbox.
2. No calendar entries will sync over from my Outlook Mailbox.
3. Only a handful of existing mail messages synced over after adding it (doesn't matter what I set my number days/months to save).
4. New mail seems to show up fine, but if I read it in Outlook it does not mark it as read on the iPhone and vice versa.
5. If I get a new invite for a meeting it adds it to my calendar on the iPhone but I dont' get any of the options to accept/decline.
I have tried everything I can think of an all of the suggestions that have been posted online. I've even gone as far as deleting/archiving EVERYTHING out of my mailbox, including contacts, calendar entries, tasks, all mail sent and received, you name it. Nothing I do gets Active Sync working the way it should.
I've added and removed the exchange account to/from my iPhone so many times I can practically do it blindfolded. I even restored my iPhone to factory defaults and then restored a backup I had from before the problems started occurring.
Other co-workers on the same Exchange server are not having these issues.
Any ideas from anyone? I'm trying to see if I can get some assistance from our Exchange team but I don't know what if any help I will get as this is not a supported device on our network.
One thing that I can't seem to do (probably the version of Exchange we are running) is get to the mobile devices section of the Outlook Web Access Client to delete the iPhone profile.
FWIW, this is an original iPhone running 2.2.
I have this exact same issue!
I was on 2.0.1 running fine until late last week, noticed emails would not show up unless I had opened them in outlook. I thought I ran into a bug so I upgraded to 2.0.2. Now I can sync my email if outlook had them opened previously, but no calendar or contacts at all. I don't think my exchange admins will move me to another server, any other ideas?
I love my iphone but if these features don't work I can't use it. I would appreciate any ideas.

New contact on mac does not sync with iphone via iCloud

Contacts added to On My Mac don't sync, add it to the iCloud account, on your Mac.

I am using Outlook 2010. Changes made to my iPhone 4 or my iPad2 appear on each other (tasks, calendar, Contacts) but not in Outlook. Why is this?
Also, changes made in Outlook do not appear on Phone or IpAdI'm guessing outlook doesn't support iCloud or vice versa or the settings for iCloud in Outlook are turned off. Just a guess though I don't use Microsoft products if I can help it.

QUESTIONS: I have an iphone 3gs.just updating to ios5. am at the stage where I chose to restore iphone via itunes. sync seems stuck at step 7 of 7: syncing artwork. Is this necessary and if not how do I get around it?
When I use find file http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/30073/find-file (which does tend to find files that "Finder" can't), it's not coming up with any other itunes library files that have been modified in the past week, which I know it would have been - unfortunately, I don't have a very recent backup of the hard drive. It would be a few months old so it wouldn't have the complete library on it....any ideas? I'm wondering if restarting the computer might help but have been afraid to do so in case it would make it harder to recover anything...I was looking at this thread https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4211589?start=0&tstart=0 in the hopes that it might have a helpful suggestion but it's definitely a different scenario.

I installed Mountain Lion so that I could sync my notes with my iPhone that already syncs notes with a specific email address I use for school, but during the install it automatically set up Notes to sync w the wrong email addy. It looked in Mail, which had 5 email accounts set up in it, and for some reason picked the only one that I no longer use because it is for a school that I no longer attend. How can I fix it so that it syncs with the correct email account for notes and calendar? There don't seem to be any settings available other than to check if you want to use the basic features. It also said during the set up that it was setting up 'find my mac' but if I look on the iCloud website there is nothing showing there for finding my mac.
At this point I feel like I wasted my money paying for this supposed upgrade. I got nothing for it but frustration. It even automatically set my security settings to allow only downloads from the Mac store so the first time I went to download something I had to stop what I was doing and go correct settings first. I feel like there should be a security setting to block downloads from the Mac store so I don't accidentally end up clicking the wrong thing and being charged.iCloud isn't syncing them on your phone. You simply added the email account to your phone and enabled calendar and notes syncing with the email provider, and the calendar and notes appear in the calendar and notes apps on your phone. You can do this with Gmail, Yahoo and other IMAP account. iCloud email is just another IMAP account, but syncs notes with Apple's iCloud server just as Gmail syncs notes and calendars with Google's server.
iCloud didnt' set up a non-iCloud account on your Mac. When you check Mail in System Preferences>iCloud, it only creates an iCloud email account. You can also add other email accounts to your Mac by going to System Preferences>Mail,Contacts,Calendars and clicking on the "+" sign on the bottom of the left sidebar. If you added these other email accounts to your Mac before you upgraded to Mountain Lion, these were simply maintained on your Mac after you upgraded. -
Notes on my iPhone won't sync to my MacBook Pro
I cannot get the Notes on my iPhone 5 to sync onto my MacBook Pro. The Notes on my MacBook Pro will, however, sync to my iPhone. Any suggestions? I am running Mac OS 10.8.5 on my MacBook Pro & iOS 7.0.2 on my iPhone.
Yes contacts is on and the account listed is the iCloud account (@me.com)
When I go onto iCloud the only contact there is my @me.com email. This account was set up so I could use iCloud but I also have a yahoo account on my iPhone if this has anything to do with it. -

Why does not Apple allows iPhone to be sync by two different computers ?
I have a pc at home and one in office. But I can only sync it with my home pc. Why does not apple allow iPhones to be sync by atleats two pcs as having different pc for work and home is very general.
It is possible to sync from multiple libraries manually on other devices (iPads & iPods) so blanket statements that 'it's DRM' don't really make sense to me.
If it is the only reason why can't non DRM'd content be copied?
Manage content manually on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod - Apple Support
See step 6, iPods & iPads have fewer restrictions compared to iPhones.
Perhaps we would have a better idea if it wasn't all wrapped up in thousands of words spread between the multiple terms & conditions agreements.
https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/

You will need to read those terms & get legal help if you can't work it out titan_sifu, good luck. -

I upgraded my iphone 5 to iOS 8 and now i get an itunes error message when I try to sync "this iphone cannot be synced. Unknown error. (-50). my icloud drive was stuck in an upgrade cycle, but i've stopped that and still get the error message.
I restarted itunes and tried again (based on a similar question/solution from 2012).
I don't get the error message anymore, but it's really sort of odd that after step one of sync, it looks as if sync stopped, and then all of a sudden you see step 4 of sync.
Also before the upgrade I had 7+ gigs of space free and after the upgrade I have 10 gigs free. seems like something is amiss, but it's not like I have anyway of determining that. -
Linking Multiple Resource Accounts via Active Sync
Ok guys/gals the scenario is... We have one idm account linked to accounts on one resource, and we want to be able to link them up via Active Sync...We don't care about the attributes, just want to make sure that if a another account for a user is created outside of IDM we can grab it and link it. So far, I've seen that the active sync process will see the new account, correlate it to a user, but it will not link the user...And outside of doing a custom Process Rule workflow, I'm not seeing any other way to get the accounts to link via active sync. Is what we are trying to do a reconciliation thing only? Have I missed something?
Yes. You can add a field to your ActiveSync form to do this: Here is an example with AD:

Yikes! After upgrading my iPhone 3GS to iOS 5, I lost my Contacts, calendar entries, and Notes (100+) on my iPhone (3 years old). How do I retrieve them? My last backup/sync to iTunes acct was Sept 18 but yesterday's backup bombed due to lack of space on my C: drive.
This happened to me too but it was really all there. Go to your calendar, click on calendar in the upper left hand corner, click on show all calendars, click done in the right upper corner. Everything should show up!!!
I was super thrilled. Hope this works for you!! -
Exchange Sync works for Mail, Calendar, Contacts - but not for Notes
Hi,
I am using an iPhone 3G (16GB). The sync with my account on an Exchange Server (I think 2003) is working just great. Mail, Calendar, Contacts are all in snyc, but there seems to be no way of synchronising the Notes between the iPhone native app and the Exchange Notes.
Is there any way to make that happen?Notes syncing is only supported via USB/iTunes sync with Outlook (Windows) or Mail (Mac), not via Exchange. So, there is no way to sync the native iPhone Notes app with your notes on Exchange. There are 3rd party apps that can access your Exchange notes, though.
