Can't sync email sub-folders with iPhone 4 using iOS 5?

I can sync most everything from my laptop using Outlook except the subfolders in my email. It will sync email but I have a number of sub-folders to organize my email that will not sync with iPhone. Any ideas?

So far this seems to have fixed it. For some reason when upgrading to iOS5 it has changed some settings in mail. Now if you send any .mac or .me emails using apple.com no problem. But other services such as optonline.net for example things changed. By checking the smtp settings, there should be a couple, this seemed to fix it, however once I did that all the email in the folder disappeared and said it could not download email without a password, yes the password now disappeared. I put it back in and so far it works sending and receiving on the ipad 2. I am going to try on the ipad1 and iphone 4...............

Why can't I email videos taken with iphone 4 from my mac

Why can't I email videos taken with my iphone 4 from my Mac? It says the video is to big or long but the particular one I am trying to send is only 1 min 16 sec long. I don't remember having this problem with my 3gs. I am trying to email them with my yahoo act, and I see this very same question was asked July of 2010, but their are no replies. It may be a very simple fix, but I can't seem to figure it out. Surly, I don't have to reduce my videos to 30 sec or less to get them to send. Can anyone please help a gal out?

Go into the Activity Monitor and Quit or Force Quit the Acrobat process.

Synching Exchange email Sub-Folders on iphone 3G

There are many posts in this and other forums regarding the inability to synch email located in sub-folders on the iPhone in the Exchange environment. I believe I have found a solution, though I am not an IT expert or even close to it. Here's what I did:
1. On the iphone, tap Settings.
2. Tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
3. Tap on your Exchange mail account (i.e. [email protected]).
4. Set Mail days to Sync to No Limit.
5. Exit Settings
6. In your Outlook, drag and drop all your sub-folders to Inbox. I did this one major sub-folder at a time because I have about 4 GB of email, but perhaps it would work just as well if you did it all at once.
7. Once the sub-folders have been moved to your Inbox in Outlook, wait a couple of minutes and then tap the Mail program on the iphone.
8. Click the circular arrow icon in the bottom left corner of the touch screen. Keep tapping until you see all your sub-folders.
DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK as I have no idea if this causes any problems - it hasn't for me, but then again I know nothing about technology. If anyone has solutions for cutting and pasting or synching notes please let me know.
Good luck.

So one downside to this is mailbox storage limits. Most companies have hard limits on how much you can put in your inbox... that is why people have folders for stuff outside of the inbox.
But the real issue regarding syncing sub-folders is that they don't sync unless you move into them on the iPhone. So if you have rules that move your mail to subfolders (when they are in the inbox), then going into your folders list in the iPhone will NOT show you that sub-folder "contracts" has new email. You have to open the subfolder on the iPhone.
Sent messages works the same way. The iPhone's sent message folder will not contain the stuff you sent from your desktop until you go into the sent messages folder; this starts the sync of that folder.

How can I sync my outlook calendar with iPhone or calendar on Maverick?

I have just updated to Mavericks on my iMac. I use Microsoft Outlook for email, contacts and calendars. How do I now sync these on my iPhone ?
The only sync seems to be via iCloud, this is sharing calendar and contacts on the iMac but if I make any calendar additions to the outlook calendar it doesn't copy to the phone or the iMac calendar and similarly if I add an item to the phone calendar it syncs to the iMac calendar but doesn't copy to outlook.

1. Apple has removed sync services in OS X Mavericks. Therefore, you cannot sync Outlook 2011 with Contacts or Calendar.
2. Apple has removed the ability to sync through iTunes in OS X Mavericks, so that, even if you use Contacts and Calendar on the Mac, you can only sync them with your iPhone through iCloud, thus exposing all your contacts and calendar information to the mercies of the Web.
3. Microsoft does not not support CalDAV and CardDAV in Outlook, so there is no way to sync directly through iCloud, except perhaps by setting up a Microsoft Exchange account.
4. Apple makes it extremely difficult (virtually impossible) to revert to a version of OSX that is earlier than OS X Mavericks once Mavericks is installed.
In short, we are screwed and neither company seems to care.

I can't sync my iPad contacts with iPhone contacts

I Have all my contacts on my iPhone, but can't get them transferred and synced on my iPad. I have iCloud contacts turned on and bot iPad and iPhone use the same username and password. I don't ever want my iPad to over write a contact on my iPhone but always want my iPhone to overwrite those on the ipad
i can't get it to work?
I have turned off and on the iCloud's contacts syncing on both iPad and iPhone in all possible configurations...
help?

Hello Texasgrillchef,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
I see you have already turned off iCloud contacts on your devices to help troubleshoot this syncing issue, however there are some further steps I'd like you to follow through.
iOS
After each step, check to see if the issue still exists.
Make sure that iCloud Contacts is on
Tap Settings > iCloud on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch and make sure that Contacts is on.
Update your iOS device
Make sure that you're using iOS 5 or later. To see your version, Go to Settings > General > About > Version.
If your issue continues, install the latest version of iOS that's supported by your device.
Check your Internet connection
Try to go to www.apple.com in Safari. If you can't connect to the Internet, your iCloud contacts won't update in the Contacts app. You can get help with your Internet connection.
Open a secure website from your iOS device to see if you can access ports 80 and 443. Contacts requires access to port 443 to push updates to and from the iCloud Contacts servers.
Refresh your contacts
If recent changes don't appear in Contacts on your iOS device, try refreshing:
In iOS 7, open Contacts, tap Groups in the upper-left corner, then swipe down to refresh the list of groups.
In iOS 6 and iOS 5, open Contacts, tap Groups in the upper-left corner, then tap the Refresh button in the upper-left corner.
Check your settings
Make sure that your device is set to display iCloud contacts:
Open Contacts and tap Groups in the upper-left corner.
Make sure All iCloud is selected.
See if a contact is stored with iCloud or another service, such as Google or Yahoo:
Open Contacts and tap Groups in the upper-left corner.
Deselect the All [account] option for any third-party, such as Gmail or Yahoo.
Make sure All iCloud is selected.
View your contacts. If the contact isn't visible, then it exists in a third-party account.
You can import the contact from a third-party service into iCloud. iCloud won't sync contacts that are associated with a different service.
You need to make sure that iCloud is your default account for Contacts:
If you want new contacts to appear automatically on your devices.
If you're syncing contacts with multiple accounts on your device (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo) and recent changes to Contacts on your iOS device don't appear on your other devices.
See if iCloud is your default account:
Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
In the Contacts section, tap Default Account.
Make sure iCloud is selected.
Restart Contacts
Close and restart the Contacts app on your iOS device:
iOS 7:
Double-click the Home button to see your open apps.
Find the Contacts preview screen and swipe it up to close the app.
Press the Home button to return to your Home screen.
Wait a minute, then reopen the Contacts app.
iOS 6 or iOS 5:
Double-click the Home button to open the multitasking menu.
Touch and hold the Contacts icon until it jiggles.
Tap the X to remove it from the list.
Press the Home button to return to the Home screen.
Wait a minute, then reopen the Contacts app.
Turn iCloud Contacts off and back on
Tap Settings > iCloud.
Turn Contacts off.
You can choose Delete from My [device] if your data exists at icloud.com/contacts and on one or more of your devices. Otherwise, choose Keep on My [device].
Wait a few minutes, then turn Contacts back on.
Restart your device
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button, then drag the slider when asked to power off. Turn your device back on.

Can't sync Outlook 2007 Calendar on iPhone 3G, iOS 4, iTunes 9.2, WindowsXP

I did upgrade my iPhone 3G to iOS 4.0 and iTunes to 9.2. Now I can’t sync Outlook 2007 calendar. Contacts and notes are ok.
I did try to sync on Windows XP SP3 and Vista SP2. I was unable to sync calendar on both computers.
I had this problem before with iTunes 9x. I was able to fix it creating a new PST file and copying all folders to this new file.
Now with iOS 4.x and iTunes 9.2 it doesn’t work. I did uninstall iTunes, clear the Windows registry, and delete all Apple folders. I also downloaded again iTunes and install it from zero. It didn’t work at all.
I also uncheck, check, recheck the Advanced options in iTunes to delete, doesn’t synchronize calendars, and contacts on iPhone… nothing works.
What else can I do to fix this pain? Any suggestion?
Daniel

Same problem here. Just bought an iPhone 3GS, downloaded iTunes 9.2 and it crashes my Outlook 2007. Outlook simply stops responding, and I have to kill it. Won't even start in Safe Mode. I have to restart the computer to revive it. Next time I start iTunes -- CRASH!
I bought the iPhone because I wanted to sych my emails, calendars and notes. Do I have to return the iPhone now?

Can not sync my Blackberry 8830 with MacBook using Pocket Mac for BlackBerryto Entourage 2008

I recently purchased a Verizon plan with my new BlackBerry 8830 Curve. I also downloaded pocketmac for blackberry with the Verizon technical support person. He spent almost 2 hours with me yesterday. We still can not sync my Blackberry contacts and calendar events to my mackbook on Entourage 2008.
This is the message I get:
[02:20:57.110] Could not lcoate the Microsoft Entourage Office Synchronization Tool.
[02:21:01.076] Could not lcoate the Microsoft Entourage Office Synchronization Tool.
PS, they even typed in locate incorrectly.
Can some help? I am stressed out that I only have one location where my contacts are located- the BB
Thanks
Henry

Guess what ? Pocketmac for Blackberry just released a new version this afternoon. 4.125.
I downloaded the new version and it now has a sync for Entourage 2008 and it works BB to Entourage 2008 and Entourage 2008 to BB.
Thanks to them for finally fixing this major flaw

How can i sync email deletions on my iPhone and iMac, and vice versa?

My email provider is Sky in the UK. While i am able to receive the same emails on both devices (imac and iphone) simultaneously, if I delete one on the iphone, it is not deleted on the iMac, and vice versa. I don't want to have to delete emails twice, once on each machine, but rather only once on one machine (and then that email would automatically disappear from the inbox of the other machine).
Is this possible? My sky account is IMAP on the Iphone, but POP on the IMAC. I tried changing it to IMAP on the iMac, but then i couldn't received email messages in MAIL on the iMac so reverted it back to a POP account.
Any advice appreciated. Spent way too many hours today trying to figure this out.
Thanks,
Joe

if it were imap on both, you'd be able to delete an email from one device and it would remove it from the other. they can't have different protocols and still sync with each other

Any way to sync iPhoto picture folders with iPhone 3G?

Is there any way in iPhoto to sync picture folders to the iPhone?
For example, I want all my contacts pictures in separate albums in a sub folder called Contacts but when I sync to my iPhone only the albums show up not the sub folder called Contacts?

No, you need to create an album. After you created an album in iPhoto and moved your picutures in there you can select the album to be synced in iTunes.
