Cannot Sync Mac Air (OS X Mavericks 10.9) to Dropbox

Sharing is Turned On. Dropbox on Mac is UnLocked. Can See Files in Dropbox Created by Other Devises (Apple and Non-Apple Devices) No Changes Made in Dropbox by Mac are Visible to Any Devise Other Than the Mac. Those Changes Are Not Show on Dropbox.com Either.
We access dropbox from several PCs, iphones, and ipads without issue. We recently connected a new MacBook Air. It appears to be connected to Dropbox. We can see the files stored on Dropbox. However, any changes made via the MacBook Air are not synced to Dropbox.com or to the other devices.-new files created, file names changed, etc. We have searched Dropbox forums, Apple/Mac forums and the internet at large for a solution with no results. On the Mac, everything seems to be shared and unlocked, etc. What could the trouble be?
Any suggesions?

Since OSX is based on Unix, this might be of interest, although it is rather technical.

Syncing mac air and ipad

I've purchased some applications from app store on my mac air, and now I'm trying to sync them with my iPad 2. Although I'm logged with the same account, iTunes store (library) does not show applications purchased and installed on my mac air(althouh they show under my account in app store). How do I transfer/sync these applications? ( I have only successfully synced photos). Many thanks for your respond!

Cannot sync mac with icloud

I cannot sync my mac with icloud. I believe I should go to ical preferences and add an account, right? There is no "icloud" menu choice -- only mobilme which is dead.
I have ical version 4.04 and Mac OS X 10.6.8. Everything I run tells me my software is up-to-date but I seem to see an updated version of ical out there -- 5.0.1 which I would think would have the choice to add an icloud account.
What to do? If all it takes is updating ical, why doesn't it do that when the system is checking itself for updates? Where would I go to download the newest version of ical?

Why would apple make Snow Leapord obselete for syncing information? I wanted to wait to upgrade to Lion until a later build, but now, my contacts, calender, mail, etc... will not sync?
This is really disappointing.
I've read about using gmail and outlook to link accounts, but why would apple send me to a third party? I want to use apple to sync everything.
They left Snow Leapord behind, and it's sad.
please let me know if there is a fix planned for this, or if Lion is the only way going forward that I can use icloud's glorious syncing capabilities.

Cannot sync ipad Air with new computer running windows 8

With new computer (HP Envy 27) running with windows 8, I have the latest iTunes installed, and successfully transferred my itunes library (books, music, TV programs, podcasts etc) to the new computer. I've tried multiple times to sync my iPad Air with no success. Only the Podcasts and Apps have been synched. No TV programs, and only a few music albums and books came across, despite the fact I selected the albums and books to synch individually. Can anyone help please?

Since you are able to sync some content and not all, I would first unsync (uncheck the box and hit apply) for a category (lets say books), then go back and re-sync (check the box again) and select just one item that did not sync before. If it syncs then you know it's not the content.
If it doesn't sync, then you will have to do a little more testing to see what it is, like trying to sync from a new library or new user.
Also, verify in itunes what's on the iPad by showing the sidebar and clicking the arrow next to the iPad on that sidebar. You can see what has made it onto the iPad. If its on the iPad there, but not showing up in the proper place on the iPad's screen (like books in iBooks) then you will need to troubleshoot the device up to maybe even restoring it as new.

I have Mac Air Updated to Mavericks, since then unable to listen to UNI podcasts. I have updated to the latest version of iTunes.

Any advise would be good thanks.
Thanking you all in advance.

Mac Reminder (Mountain Lion) cannot sync with Exchange Server 2010

Hi All,
My boss is using iMac reminder (Mountain Lion), iPhone and iPad sync with his Exchange Server account, He cannot sync Mac reminder with Exchange Server last week. However, there are no sync problem of iPhone, iPad and the other iMac.
My boss mail to me 'Just noticed that my iMac reminder is not in sync with the server. IOS device is in sync though. Tried unchecking calendar+reminder on account setup and rechecking but still no good. Any ideas?'
Could anyone help me?
Thanks,

Started experiencing this same issue with new Macs on Moutain Lion connecting to MicroSoft Exchange Server.
ERROR Says:
Calendar can't save the event "event name here" to the Exchange server.
The account "describes calendar name" currently can't be modified. to discard your changes and continue using the version of your calendars that's on the server. click Revert to Server.
Then gives the buttons "Revert to Server" "Try Again" or "Ignore"
!!! Somehow it seems like this is a known issue, otherwise WHY would Apple have given us those 3 buttons to click on?
Needless to say this is causing productivity problems as it disrupts the very busy schedule of many users. Apple needs to provide some workaround for this.

I cannot sync my iPhone 5s with my Mac Air.

I cannot sync my iPhone 5s with my Mac Air.
I have been able to do so the past and with the recent upgrades I am unable to do so now.
I went to iTunes as usual to the iPhone option on the right and the iCal sync option is no longer available. They Apple leave this out accidentally with the new upgrades. I hope they add it back really soon. I rely on this sync. I have appointment that I cannot overlap.

The ability to sync your iPhone using iTunes has been removed in Mavericks. You are expected to use iCloud, which will give you the same syncing functionality and will happen automatically without your having to plug it in.

Cannot see the USB printer attached to my TC (Mac Air, Maverick, Air - TC via ethernet)

I cannot see the USB printer I attached to my Time Capsule's USB port. I am using a Mac Air, with Maverick OS, and connecting between my Mac and the TC via an ethernet link. Suggestions?

Not sure what you mean by "see" the USB printer.
If you simply plugged the printer in to the Time Capsule, it will not be "seen" by anything.
You won't "see" the printer until you use System Preferences > Print & Scan on both of your Macs to "Add" the printer. Did you do this for both Macs?

There is no Info tab in Mavericks
if you use OS X v.10.8.5 or earlier. If you use OS X Mavericks v.10.9 or later, your contacts, calendars, and other info are updated on your computers and iOS devices via iCloud. For more information, see iCloud Help at icloud.com.

Hi there kushfromgbr,
You may find the information in the article below helpful.
About SyncServices
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5847
OS X Mavericks
OS X Mavericks v10.9 and later do not use SyncServices. Instead, Mavericks supports sharing your information using several network-based and cloud-based solutions. If you want to sync your information across multiple devices and computers, you should use one or more of these methods. These include iCloud, CardDAV servers, CalDAV servers, and servers that utilize the Exchange ActiveSync protocol.
If you would like more information about setting up iCloud on your devices you can take a look at the article below.

Photo stream does not sync mac OSX mavericks

I have macbook air running mavericks 10.9.2 and when I setup photostream it only synced back for about 2 months, want it to collect all prior photostream photos from my iphone/ipad. It has stayed just the 2 months data for a few days now so convinced it will never update. any way to force the update? May be a bug. Thoughts?
Also, it seems that the photostream may have been locking up my wifi connection. After disabling photostream it is working again but with some hangups, but not as percistant as it was before. Thoughts?

My notes from ipad or iphone sync but not to my mac air?

my iphone and ipad sync my notes but mac air doesnt

The templates are stored locally. If you want to move a template then you can open the tempate on the machince where they already exist, then save as a file (let's say on you desktop), then email, or move (using a flash drive) to the Mac mini.
Open the file on the mac mini and save as a template.
I do not have Numbers on an iOS device so I cannot say how to get it to your iphone. I would think you can share the document using iCloud then open from iCloud on the phone and save as a template.

My iMac cannot sync notes with my iPad or iPhone since the Mavericks update.

My iMac cannot sync notes with my iPad or iPhone since the Mavericks update. I get the error message "This Mac can't connect to iCloud because of a problem with my [email protected] Open iCloud preferences to fix this problem." Help. I have version 10.9.3 on the iMac, 7.1.1 on iPhone and iPad. The iPhone & iPad sync notes fine. But neither gets the changes I put in the iMac.
I automatically have an email @iCloud.com when that update occured. Can anyone help me?

1. Turn the router, iPad and printer off.
2. Turn on the router and then wait 30 seconds to let it complete its start-up process.
3. Turn on printer and then wait 30 seconds to let it complete its start-up process.
4. Turn on your iPad and test print.
