Calender & contacts

After trying to figure out how to put information into my contacts & calenderon my itouch, I finally called support and was told you can only enter information from your computer and then sync it. The support person was not even aware of this and was suprised you could not enter stuff on the itouch calender & contacts like you can the iphone. The support person suggested I email apple with my complaint and it might be an added feature if enough people complain.

THere are no apple employees that work here so your comments fall on deaf ears. Please leave comments regarding future enhancements and etc at the link below where apple will read it.

Is there a way to sync my blackberry calender/contacts on multiple devices

I have a bold 9700. right now, it is 2 way syncing with my main laptop/outlook 2010 and one way sync to my on the road thinkpad/outlook 2010. I like to make changes via a browser too. I originally though you can up use a exchange host company like 1and1 to do the job but when i tried to sign up today they said it can't be done with Blackberries. I am a soho guy (me and myself) and won't need my email sync at all. I just need contacts and calender and nothing else. Any reasonable cost solution for less than $ 6 a month?

You three would do better to sync to google directly. Google has a blackberry app that will allow you to sync your contacts and calendars. The app isn't perfect, but it works reasonably well, especially if you're just using one calendar to sync.
Then there's plenty of ways to sync those to your iPad using Google, including Exchange, or simply adding it as a google account.
As for iCloud, there really isn't any supported or unsupported method to do what you're trying to do, at least at this time. If there is, it would definitely be a hack and I would be wary of risking your contact or calendar data on it..

Can't sync with my Palm calender/contacts

Just bought the iphone 3G and have got it pretty much up and running with music, emial, etc. Problem is when I log in to itunes I can't figure out how to sync with my old palm info. It only provides Yahoo contacts, Google, Outlook, and Windows as contact sources. No other options? I was told at the store I could sync with my palm data.
Any suggestions?

I have a palm tungsten on my win xp on my laptop. I use outlook express and IE. I would like to move the palm contacts folder which includes phone numbers on to the iphone. What settings do I choose for the synching with itunes? How do I export the palm folder? Thanks much for help, irenes

Blackberry Office 365 email calender & contacts sync

Hey Guys
I'm looking to hook my Blackberry Bold up with Office 365.
From what I've learnt so far out of the box I can sync email using POP3 or IMAP4.
However, I would like to sync my calendar and contacts too. I understand I need BlackBerry® Enterprise Cloud Services to do this.
I can see that I can turn that service on in my Office 365 account.
However, do I need to purcahse BlackBerry® Enterprise Cloud Services from Blackberry as well?
What else will I need to get it going do you guys think?
Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards
Aaron

Lost calender & contacts when syncing

this is seriously bad and i can't get anyone at Apple to speak to me!! Here's what happened 16GB 3G i phone connected to desk top - used i tunes to sync info from phone to pc - sync took place and wiped all phone info from phone and retained nothing on pc!! The reverse happened to what i wanted, unbelievable as I specifically set it up to sync one way!! Is the info stored anywhere and can i get it back.My entire life was on the i phone and I have no back up at all.

How do you think you "specifically set it up to sync one way"? Was this the same computer you usually sync to? Reformatted hard drive?
What info was deleted? Calendar/contacts/bookmarks? Those sync both ways, but if an iPhone is connected to a different computer and that computer has no data on it, the iPhone will have it's data deleted. If you have at least one contact/event/bookmark on the new computer, you'll be prompted to merge the data.
Or was the iTunes media content (music/videos/etc.) deleted? The iPhone syncs that content only one-way, _from computer to iPhone_ and is designed to sync with one and only one computer. Connecting to a different computer will delete the content from the iPhone (you are warned first).

My phone was wiped after a computer crash and my data has gone! Calender, contacts, messages and apps are gone, and I can't find my backup! Please help me regain my data, at least my contacts and messages!

I'm desperate - where can I locate my back up? I backed it up only today but restore from backup is not appearing as an option. I use Windows 7.

Dear Brian:
Create a Play List in iTunes.
Control-Click and open "Export" in the highlighted Playlist in iTunes.
With "Export" opened:
1. Click on "Format" and choose "M3U";
2. In "Save As" name your "WhatEverNamePlaylist.m3u"; and
3. In "Where" tell the program where to send your "WhatEverNamePlaylist.m3u".
You are done creating the Playlist.m3u in iTunes.
Open "Subsonic Web Page".
Left hand column open "Import playlist".
In "Import playlist" click "Choose File" and open the "WhatEverNamePlaylist.m3u"; you created in iTunes.
The "WhatEverNamePlaylist.m3u" should now occupy the space between "Choose File" and "OK".
Click "OK".
The file should now be in the "Playlist" on the left.

Can i have 2 iphones share a yahoo account(email,calender,contacts)

can i have 2 iphones share a yahoo account

What do you mean it "stopped updating"?
Does it display some sort of error in an alert view?
If so, the fix it would depend on the error. You may have to re-enter the account password in settings or you could try removing and re-adding the account.
Is it just that new emails don't pop up on her phone?
You may want to get familiar with the refresh button (iOS 5) / refresh gesture (iOS 6) or you could try restarting the mail app (don't be in mail app, double tap home button, hold down on mail icon, tap red x button on jiggling mail icon, reopen mail).

I have an ipod touch 1g ive seen online they have apps and they slide to diffrent creen to get to other apps my dosent slidde only hassafri ,calender,contacts,youtube,clock,calculator,settings,music,videos,photos,and itunes no maps plz help my firmware is

HELP!!

You should be able to upgrade it to iPhone OS 3.1.3, if it's a 1st gen iPod touch. This Apple article explains how to upgrade.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
You'll need to use the second method, where is says Update your device using iTunes.
Once you have iPhone OS 3.1.3 running on the iPod touch, you should be able to access the App Store and download apps. Some apps will not run, if later versions of "iOS" (such as iOS 4 and 5) are required. The App Store (on the iPod touch) will prevent you from downloading incompatible apps.
It may be easier to download apps using the iTunes Store on your computer, then sync the apps to your iPod touch, because you have a larger screen to view the app's description.

No Sync of contacts+calender since upgrade to iTunes 7.7 and/or iPhone 2.0

Windows Vista, Outlook 2007, iTunes 7.7, iPhone 2.0
After Upgrading to iTunes 7.7 and iPhone 2.0 neither my contacts nor my calender syncs anymore.
Often (but not allways), when connecting iPhone to my PC, I am getting the error "iTunes was unable to load provider data from Sync Services. Reconnect or try later"
When this happens, most of the time (but not always) my entries for syncing calender,contacts etc. under "Info" are missing. In these cases synching is not possile at all.
In those rare occasions, when the entries are not missing, ...
... synchronizing takes > 30 Minutes (much longer then before the update)
... new calender and contact data in Outlook are ot syncronized to iPhone and vice versa
Note:
1. De- and Re-Installing iTunes (íncl. Apple Mobile Device Support, Apple Software Update und Quicktime) did not solve the problem
2. Resetting the sync history did not solve the problem
3. Deleting data backup did not solve the problem
4. When Syncronizing at a different windows user I do not receive the error "iTunes was unable to load provider data from Sync Services", but still: syncing does not work!
5. On my iPhone there are 2 calenders: Home and "Outloook Calender"
6. There were backups of two different iPhones in my iTune (which I have deleted)
7. All podcasts were gone from my iPhone - after resetting the sync history there were transfered by to iPhone
8. Right after the update, iTunes wanted to update each contact in Outlook (which I did not allow) - after resetting the sync history this message did not appear again
Anyone any idea? I love my iPhone but when I cannot trust that data is not in synch between Outlook an IPhone its not much more than a mobile phone!

I ran into this the first immeidately after upgrading to 7.7 (at least the calendars, I didn't have much of an issue with contacts). Long story short, I think it has to do with the "Home" sub-calendar it creates. Removing this and redirecting new events back to Calendar does not resolve the issue. It seems that whatever it does, corrupts the Outlook Data File (PST file) permenently.
Fortunately for me, my profile at home is very simple and I only use it to sync personal events and contacts. I tried a number of "fixes" including resetting the sync history in iTunes, rebooting multiple times etc. What fixed it for me was the following (though I would only recommend it if you know what you are doing as you can mess up your entire outlook profile if you don't). This is the short short version of these instructions... if you don't know how to accomplish these steps I'd suggest asking someone that does. BTW, this only deals with a simple profile with calendars and contacts. If your profile contains a lot of additional personal information that the iPhone does not support (notes, etc.) you will need to export these folders into individual files for later import into the reconstructed PST file.
1) Disconnect the iPhone and close everything down (iTunes, Outlook, etc), make a backup of your PST file just in case things go wrong.
2) Create a new data file and set it as the default.
3) Open iTunes (before connecting the iPhone again) and click the Reset Sync History button in the preferences.
4) Open up outlook just to make sure the new profile is working, then close it again.
5) Connect the phone to have it sync your contacts and calendars back to outlook.
6) The sync of both contacts and calendars should work correctly now.
Again, please note that these instructions left a lot of detail out concerning the individual steps. If you need help with these I'd suggest seeking out someone that has some experience with this process for help to reduce the risk of losing data in the process.
The bottom line for me was that it seemed that recreating the PST file and reimporting the data (not just copying the whole file into a new one) fixed the issue for me. Obviously, one would hope that Apple devises a better solution than this in the long term.

Ipad2 - No Contact, No Calender, No Email

Hi All,
I have 2 Ipad2's and neither of them will allow me to set up calender, contacts or email, only find ipad.
There is just no option under setup for me to enable them, all I get is the option to find my ipad (which doesent work either, for when I log into me.com, it only comes up with find my iphone, not either of my ipads)
Any advice on how to fix this?
Is the fact that I live in NZ the problem?

spoke to Apples helpdesk, and got it fixed in minutes.
if anyone else has this problem, instead of using your primary email address to log in as I did, use your mobileme account.

Trying to sync Outlook contacts to iPhone (mostly business contacts). Too few fields. How do I add new ones or is there a good app?

I was a Palm user. My Palm made portable all contact info, calendar, tasks and notes in very helpful way. But after I lost my calendar on PalmDesktop twice in one month, decided I needed a different solutio and bought iPhone 4.
Arduous process of transferring different categories/subgroups of contacts to Outlook (yes, I have a PC) and finding that some data just does not map right. Then tried to sync with iPhone only to find that most of data can't be mapped to the meager number of fields it looks like are available on the iPhone. Is there a way to add fields? A good app for this?
Also, need an app for tasks and calendar (no weekly view).
Gee, just about everything a business person would want!

Yes, from Outlook it will only sync Calender, Contacts from you mail accounts. No subfolders and no Task Manager. Maybe there will be changes in the iOS 5.
In the App Store you can search for "task manager". There are some options, but study them carefully before you buy any.

Unable to snyc calender and contacs from outlook 2011 for mac

iTunes won't sync calenders and contacts from Outlook 2011 for Mac
OS Mavericks 10.9.5
iTunes 12.0.1.26
Also tried on iTunes 11.4

I don't receive an error, i am syncing to iPhone and iPad... I connect the device to the MacBook with the cable, open iTunes and click on the device on iTunes then go to info tick sync contacts but it doesn't show me any contacts below, then tick sync calender and i could see the calenders and then I select the calender that i want to sync and press apply... the sync icon appears as if it is syncing and the disappeared after a few minutes. When i check the iPhone or the iPad the calender and contacts are empty.
I have enabled the sync services in outlook for mac 2011 and ticked calender, contacts and tasks and select the account to sync and the outlook folder to add new items to but still it does not sync anything.
I went to the iStore technical support and the technicians were unable to help me they just told me that Apple has removed the functionality, to me it looked like they were clueless

Sync problems with outlook 2007 calender

I am new in this type of comms.
BUT: I have a Palm Tungsten T5; have Palm Desktop 6.2.2 with the update for Windows7.
I have a sync problem with outlook 2007 calender; contacts, ToDo, memos all ok.
HotSynLog says: there are multi-day repeating records. [i knew that they do not sync, hence i deleted them PRIOR to syncing]
I found the listed records BUT either on dif days and they are "no timed" ones! and NOT multi-days ones.
I deleted them anyway - did a re-sync. With no different result. Still listed - though deleted and now non-existent.
Error code: OLERR: 03-000F (0xaf604005) and others - if this means anything.
Post relates to: Palm TX

Hello,
I receive email on my device from two addresses: 1) @sprint.blackberry.net and 2) @charter.net. When I was having problems similar to those you are experiencing, I had these two addresses listed under Default Services - Calendar (CICAl) - Messaging (CMIME). These addresses were @sprint.blacberry.net and @charter.net. Once I followed the steps previously referenced, only one email address(@sprint.blackberry.net) appeared under the (CICAI) and (CMMIE) default setting. Reference to @charter.net was removed. My syncs have worked correctly since then; however, I only two way synce with the device and Outlooks. I also continue to get emails from both addresses without a problem.
If you don't mind giving up the Yahoo calendar, I would do the same. If you want to continue using the Yahoo calendar, I'm guessing that it must be selected in the Default Services - Calendar (CICAI) before performing a sync. Likewise for your @sprint.blackberry.net address; it also must be selected in the Default Services prior to performing a device to Outlook sync.
I hope this helps.
Tres
