Cannot sync calendar entries from BB 8520 to MacBook calendar

Recently, not sure prescisely when, my Macbook (OS 10.8) stopped receiving new calendar entries from my BB curve 8520 during a wired sync. There are no error messages, the data flows correctly the other way, and as far as I can see the contacts are updated both ways successfully (though BB Desktop keeps flagging addresses as changed when they're not).
I have checked for BB DS updates, 'latest version is insalled' (2.4.0 build 17), reinstalled it several times (though it is noticeable that doing ths does not delete sync history, is that significant?), and rebooted the phone several times. No difference.
I can find nothing in Knowledge base directly applicable, and trying some likely suggestison like checking default calendar on the phone are either inapplicable or ineffective.
Ideas before I desert to Apple or Android?

HT204053 cannot sync calendar on my new ipad mini. my mac and macbook use a .me account for iCloud. How can I change this?

I cannot sync calendar on new ipad mini. My mac desktop and mac book have an old .me icloud account name. Cannot change that so how do I sync?

If you had a passcode set on your iPad your data should be safe. The thief would have to force it into recovery mode and restore it in order to use it, which would completely erase it.
This shouldn't keep your daughter's device from accessing the iCloud account however. If you can no longer sign into the account on iCloud.com from your computer, contact Apple support for assistance.

HT1386 I sync all songs, photos and videos between my computer and iPod classic with no problems, but when I get to sync info I get this message: "iTunes cannot sync Calendar and contacts to iPod. Try logging out of Windows adn then logging back in".

I sync all songs, photos and videos between my computer and iPod classic with no problems, but when I get to sync info I get this message: "iTunes cannot sync Calendar and contacts to iPod. Try logging out of Windows adn then logging back in". Could you please help?

Correct. When you update via iTunes all synced media that is not in your iTunes library will be lost.
As IO said before:
You can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
I do not think it included audio books.

Cannot sync Calendar with iphone 3g/itunes

Not sure what happened but I cannot sync calendar with itunes.
Everything else works fine with syncing with Outlook 2007 through iTunes.
What specifically happens is everything will sync and when it gets to "syncing with calendar" the syncing process hangs, never completes.
Any help?

Try resetting the sync history. iTunes > Edit menu > Preferences > Devices tab, click the button. Then try syncing again.

Cannot sync any photos from iPhoto to iPhone

I cannot sync any photos from iPhoto to my iPhone. When I select the box to "Sync Photos from iPhoto," it displays "0 photos" regardless of what other settings I try (all photos, selected albums, etc.). Attempting to sync from folders other than iPhoto works fine.
I have tried removing the iPod Photo Cache. (First syncing the iPhone with no photos selected, then removing the phone, closing iTunes and iPhoto, trashing the cache, emptying the trash, rebooting the iMac, restarting the phone, reattaching the phone, and trying to sync again.)
I've tried searching the internet for a solution, but have only found threads going off in multiple directions with no clear advice.
iMac running OS X 10.9.1
iPhoto 9.5.1
iPhone 4S running iOS 7.0.4

Additional info: I tried repairing permissions, repairing the database, and even rebuilding the database in iPhoto. Rebuilding eliminated all ordering in my albums. Since this seemed to be only messing things up further, I then tried restoring my entire iPhoto Library from a previous version in Time Machine (when synching photos still worked). However, the problem persists. I am still unable to sync any photos from iTunes to my phone.

HT4759 Cannot sync my bookmarks from Safari Web Browser to iPad.

I cannot sync my bookmarks from Safari Web Browser to my iPad.
When connected to iTunes it lists that my bookmarks are being synced via iCloud, but I cannot see where my bookmarks are being stored on iCloud.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I have loaded my Firefox bookmarks into Internet Explorer Favorited. I also uninstalled Safari.
I go to iTunes on my phone and see no wat to connect my iPhone to my laptop. I see Music, Shows, etc., the kind of stuff I would expect, but no clue as to how to proceed.
Would you please be so kind to fill me in on how to "That syncing is done via iTunes. Connect the device to iTunes, select it, then go to the Summary page and select to sync bookmarks."?
I am not sure what you mean by "Summary Page"
Thank you

I cannot sync contacts between my iPhone 4s and MacBook Pro after I upgraded the Mac with the latest operating system software upgrade. Even the Mac Store couldn't help...

That is because that sync ability (for contacts and calendars) has been removed. Use iCloud instead.

Since i upgraded to iOS5 my phone is no longer recognized by my MacBook, so I cannot sync. What do I do? MacBook was recently updated to OSX Snow Leopard.

Cannot upload any images from iPhone 4 to Macbook Pro. Please help!

Hi all,
I'm pretty much tearing my hair out with this one, I don't know what to do - I simply cannot upload any photos from iPhone 4 to Macbook Pro.
This problem appeared out of the blue. I am trying to upload to iPhoto - not working. I have clearing the cache - not working. Tried the Dropbox app - not working and the option has now disappeared altogether. Tried Image Capture - not working. I went and had my iPhone replaced altogether - still not working. I thought it might be a problem with my iPhone or a problem with the back-ups or sometthing so I plugged in my boyfriend's to scope it out - still not working. I have restarted all devices many times. I have read through posts and posts about this and cannot find an answer.
iPhoto says: unreadable files - unrecognized format - not true!!
Image Capture just says there is an error importing.
Any help would be much appreciated - it's driving me mad!
Thank you!

Just to double check you tried everything see if this link helps http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083

Cannot sync Calendar items from outlook to PDA

Hi I am using Active sync via exchange to sync wirelessly. My devices are Palm Treo 750v's running Windows mobile 5 and 6.0. I am on New Zealands Vodafone Network
My problem is that we cannot sync from Outlook calendar to the PDA calendar, from the PDA to the calendar is fine when entered on the PDA. We sync wirelessly via exchange 2003 on an SBS server.
I have have tried hard resets, different user accounts, different Treo 750v's, different versions of windows mobile all with no difference. I have checked the firewall logs and event logs for errors. I have set all the virtual directories to the settings recommended by Microsoft. I ahve searched for a firmware update applicable to my devices without success
To me it seems like a permissions problem on a folder or virtual directory as when you sync an appointment from the PDA to Outlook you can modify it but the change is not reflected on the PDA although the PDA detects a change the appointment is not changed on the PDA. If you move the appointment in Outlook to a new time that change is still not reflected on the PDA although it detects the change, but if you delete the message in outlook even though it is in a different time slot (in outlook) to the PDA copy it deletes the PDA copy when you synchronise.
Any ideas
Cheers Geoff

Hi,
The devices are syncing to exchange directly, we do not use active snyc on the desktop as we mainly run a terminal server / citrix enviroment. The appointments show up in OWA and in Outlook when entered on the PDA (Treo) so this means they are getting to the server. When entered via Outlook they show up in OWA but not on the PDA although the PDA will detect the change.

Cannot sync calendar running Wiindows 7

I have a Palm Treo 700wx. I use Acitive sync 4.5 on my laptop running XP. I also have a personal computer, an iMac running Windows 7 on Parallels 5.0. I am not able to sync my calendar on the iMac and not able to sync my notes on the laptop.
Can you help?

I also then unchecked the box so that it would sync calendar entries older than 30 days and it restored everything to the phone. Everything prior to October 31 was restored, but nothing forward of October 31 was sync'd. I then tried to create calendar entries in the past in Outlook, one on October 27 and one on November 3, reset sync history and sync'd. The two new entries did not come over. So it appears that anything that was already on my calendar prior to some date that I cannot pinpoint is syncing. Anything that is entered after that date is not. So it seems consistent with your theory that there is some weird entry that the iPhone doesn't like, but I'm not sure how to find this, short of deleting everything on the calendar from mid-October forward and re-entering it. I guess I could try that next, I'm getting pretty desperate. Thanks again.

Cannot Sync Calendar and Contacts

I upgraded to Windows 7 but am still using Outlook 2003 as it is compatible with my office server for data storage. I am not sure when exactly but when I upgraded iPhone software to 4.3.2, I find that since Windows 7/Software 4.3.2, I cannot sync my calendar and contacts in Outlook 2003 with my iPhone. Old entries in my calendar are still there but the new entries do not show. I have even reduced my calendars to one single calendar. Worse, sometimes when I try to sync, it causes Outlook 2003 to hang and close. Can anyone help me? Thank you.

its done in the info tab
the most easy way is to get both OS X and ios to sync with icloud
but otherwise you need to spc. a bit more then "having trouble" too little info

Complaint: cannot sync calendars or contacts without icloud

I have an iphone 5s, and on the phone and laptop [macbook pro early 2011] fully update OSs, 10.9 maverix and iOS 7.0.3.
I cannot sync my calendars and contacts anymore from the phone to computer, with icloud, it seems. i am still searching for a solution to this obvious problem/bug.
If this is Apple's intention then i register my complaint. Removing this choice from your loyal customers is simply a bad decision. I do not ever want to use icloud, do not need or want it. Also that this non-icloud sync ability was removed, without a word anywhere that i can see, this dismays me and makes me wish i had checked out alternative phones/OSs. --I am not hopeful that android would be any better. Just wish i had learned before buying two days ago the 5s.
I hope that a future update will bring this ability back.

Don't know how you are able to continue receiving email with the account, but this will end soon.
If you are accessing the account with the Mail.app on your Mac, you should transfer all server stored messages to a user created "On My Mac" location mailbox ASAP. When account access is stopped which will happen soon, all messages that remain on the server will be lost.
If you don't intend to purchase a MM account, best to stop using it now since anyone that sends you email will no longer be able to do so once access to the account has stopped, which will happen soon.
Turning off over the air syncing for contact info and calendar events should allow for this and the same for when deleting the account on your iPhone. I read a post recently by someone with the same problem. They were told to delete and recreate the account on the iPhone but don't enable over the air syncing for contact info and calendar events after doing so.
