Cloud Sync turned off

I have a Samsung Galaxy S4. I am new to Verizon, so I added contacts to my account online. It's supposed to sync up with my phone, but it doesn't. When I open the Cloud app under Accounts on my phone, it says sync is turned off, the Sync Now is grayed out, and there seems to be no way to change it. The Backup Assistant only backs up numbers on my device. It doesn't restore numbers from the website to my phone. My contacts are all from Google, and there's no way to change them to device. They would all have to be entered manually. I want this to work correctly!

Let's work to get your contacts transfered, wbpatton! If the device is not directly allowing you to move Google contacts to the device to allow the Cloud to recognize the need for backup we would have to manually transfer. Using a computer, log into your Gmail account and choose to Export the contacts then log into the Cloud and choose to manage the contacts. You will be presented with option to import the .csv file you previously created from Gmail. I am sorry that we are unable to support the direct link from the Gmail servers.
Thank you,

Creative Cloud syncing turns itself off

I have noticed that Creative Cloud syncing turns itself off whenever I open InDesign. I suspect that the link file ID creates is responsible for this. It is a new development and used to work fine until a few days ago.
Does anyone else have a similar experience?

I too recently started having this problem. I thought by uninstalling everything and then re-installing would solve the problem but now I cant get the CC app to run and install the individual products that I need for work. My CC icon appears for a brief moment like yours and then disappears.
Have you found a solution to this by any chance?

Files and font sync turn off working with InDesign..

Hi
Files and font sync turns off when I work with InDesign directly on the CC disctop files folder. It use to be ok to work directly in sync mode, but apparently not any more. I guess the problem is the backup file that InDesign creates, that consist of signs behaps not allowed (?). It use to work for me, but not any more..?
Do anyone els have the same problem?
Jørgen

Hi again
Thanks for your reply. In the Creative Cloud Help page I get, it says: "Save and close the file when you're done editing it and the error goes away.", but I actually have to reconnect. The bad thing about this is that it turns off the font sync as well when I was working.
I have temporarely solved the problem, simply be changing the name of the file I'm working on. I have tryed to reproduce it with a different name - all with leagal signs according to the page mensioned above - with no success (which is positive). Then I tryed to move the file to a new folder within the folder I was working on, and then it worked without problem. Strange.
I guess, if I run in to the same problem again, I will just try to change the name.
Thanks

Email sync turned off

Repeatedly having the same problem with the galaxy s4.
"email sync turned off"
Only when I go into my aol email. When I go into other email accounts it does not do it there.
I turn back on the sync. Bam - a day or 2 later, same thing. email sync turned off.
Any ideas??????
Thx!

Hello nothingspecial,
We know how important it is to have your e-mail settings working properly. After all, there are times in which notifications may not be desired. I'm eager to partner with you to get this resolved for you. Let's start with what software and android version do you have installed on the Galaxy S 4? Can I assume that you are using the default e-mail app? If you can share this info as well as advise if we are working with a work or personal AOL e-mail then we can customize a solution for you.
Thank you...

Getting ~/Library to sync in background when login/logout sync turned off

I have a bunch of laptop users with very slow network connections where I need to turn off login/logout sync and only sync data in the background manually. Problem is, if you turn off login/logout sync it also turns off syncing ~/Library in the background.
Now if you use the Details tab for MCX setting in WGM you can add the key "Sync Preferences in the Background" and set it to "sync" but it doesn't make any difference.
Anyone know how to work around this so I don't have to sync anything at login/logout but can still sync Preferences in background when I manually do a sync?

I don't think it's in the GUI, but you can manage this stuff pretty granularly with the following boolean flags in ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.homeSync.plist:
<key>syncBackgroundSetAtLogin</key>
<string>dontSync</string>
<key>syncBackgroundSetAtLogout</key>
<string>dontSync</string>
<key>syncPreferencesAtLogin</key>
<string>dontSync</string>
<key>syncPreferencesAtLogout</key>
<string>sync</string>
<key>syncPreferencesAtSyncNow</key>
<string>dontSync</string>
<key>syncPreferencesInBackground</key>
<string>dontSync</string>
I think the keys you want are syncPreferencesInBackground and/or syncPreferencesAtSyncNow. However, I found that this unpredicatably didn't sync everything. PHD has a generally hard time with open files and many of these files are open. Also, note that 10.5 changed in that it considers any hidden folders loose in your home folder (e.g. .ssh/) to be included in "Preference" syncing only occurring at Logout and Login. This isn't really documented or shown anywhere. I'm pretty sure that they are ignored in the background *even with* the above flags in use. Note that I haven't played with these in a while, so your mileage might vary. Perhaps they're just not ready for prime time.
EDIT:
Actually, I just remember where and how I found these: You need to follow the directions for "Using the Preference Editor to Manage Core Services" on page 236 of the User Management manual. This gives you the location of Preference Manifest for Home Folder Syncing which has a bucketload of cool options, including automatic conflict resolution.

Lightroom Freezes with Syncing turned off

I've have LR CC installed since a few hours after it was released, and have had zero issues with it, even when leaving it running for days on end. But today, I've been working away and noticed that LR seemed a little sluggish. To that end, I turned off Syncing with LR Mobile and Address Lookup, and that quickly improved the situation. However, if I walk away from the computer for a few minutes, and come back, LR is frozen! The OS is alive and well, but if have to Force Quit LR. It doesn't matter which module I'm in, or what I'm doing, walking away for 2 or 3 minutes, causes it to freeze. I've just re-enabled Syncing and am now attempting to see if this resolves the issue. Has anyone else experienced this? Maybe I'll turn off the Collections that are syncing, and see if that makes any difference, if I also turn off Syncing.
Thanks!

My 2 year old deleted my grandpas spreading of ashes video. Help! No I did not back up my phone and my cloud was turned off.

Anyone? Is it gone for good?

You should be able to find it if you go into your phone like a harddrive (not in itunes).
And how is this done?

HT4910 My iCloud account was turned off can I find out what time this happened

My daughters I pad was hacked. The I cloud was turned off so the tracking system would not work. Is there a way to find out what time of day this happened.
I can at least let her teacher know what class this happened in. We were just lucky we caught it before it was stolen. Does anyone have any good ways to track iPad for parents. My daughter has Down's syndrome and really needs her iPad to help her with her class work.

Look at the serial number on the back of the nano and input this into https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do. This should tell you what type of iPod you have.

ITunes match turned off on iPhone4s but still showing a "cloud" icon

I have signed up to iTunes Match and uploaded my entire music collection to the service.
I have turned this functionality off in my iPhone 4s so that all music that appears on this device, should be music that is physically stored on the device.
However, next to some albums/artists, a "cloud" icon is still showing.
My first question is, what does this icon mean?
Secondly, I cannot understand why this icon appears to some content and not others (see below).
Again, all my music I have matched or uploaded to the "cloud" via iTunes Match (Windows) but with Match turned off, the icon is still appearing for some reason and only next to some content not all.
Interestingly, no cloud icon whatsoever shows next to any individual song (under the "Songs" tab) regardless of what shows under "Albums" or "Artists" tabs:
I am at a complete loss.
I have turned iTunes Match on then off on the iPhone4s to try and correct the issue but no joy.
Can anyone help?

Hi Michael,
Though I've solved that particular problem there's still two issues with regard iTunes Match.
Number one, I'm genuinely worried about switching it on again on my iPhone. As soon as you enable it it threatens to 'replace' the music that is already on the phone and that to me is where things start to go wrong.
You're not the only person to be concerned by that alert dialog. As long as the songs that are already on your iPhone are in the cloud they will not actually be removed. They will remain on the iPhone.
londonman2 wrote:
Secondly, on my phone currently I have just 120 songs all of which 'exist' on the phone with 'Manually manage music and video's' AND 'Sync only checked songs and videos' as my iTunes set up under options...
With iTunes Match enabled on your iPhone, those settings no longer apply. Direct syncing of music via USB or Wi Fi is disabled and all music management will take place on the iPhone.
londonman2 wrote:
However, if you look at the attached screen shot the unticked songs are still appearing in the list but I have deleted these from the phone. These were the leftovers of my last iTunes Match download across a 3G network last week and won't disappear from the list even though they're unchecked.
What version of iOS is on your iPhone? This was a pretty serious bug in iOS 5.0.1, which was fixed in 5.1. But for some people, me included, it required restoring the iOS device to factory, then restoring the backup before the "ghost tracks" would go away.

How to turn off private browsing mode to read kindle cloud

I have purchased kindle ebook to read from iPad. Told private browsing mode needs to be turned off. How is that done?

There is not a setting for turning on & off private browsing in Firefox mobile.

I could be wrong so let me do some more digging and see if there is a easier way.
'''Update:'''
<br> Do you have a problem where a blank page is loading for Kindle Cloud Reader? I see there's a FAQ page saying to make sure private browsing mode is off if you are having problems with Kindle Cloud Reader. If that is right, could you tell us what kinds of problems you're seeing w/ Kindle Cloud?
This article shows you how to close tabs in Private Browsing mode in Firefox for Android:

When iTM turned off on iPhone, what does cloud mean?

Turned off iTM on phone, synced phone. In the interest of using iTM as intended, I'm hoping to figure out why the Cloud Icon is still there next to some albums.

Sorry; the product should be iPhone 3GS.

Match turned off, non-iTunes artists have cloud icon

On my iPhone there are artists with the cloud icon next to their name.
I have Match turned OFF on the iPhone.
I have not purchased songs by these particular artists from iTunes.
Why are the clouds there?
(I do have Match enabled on the Mac this iPhone syncs with.)

ICloud I do not want to share some documents in the cloud. I f I turn off iCloud it says I will delete everything already there. How do I know what is already in the cloud

iCloud I do not want to share some documents in the cloud. I f I turn off iCloud it says I will delete everything already there. How do I know what is already in the cloud

Thank you. When I go into system preferences, then iCloud, then manage, it does not let me view what is there only says: ex: The documents stored inside Pages take up 623.3KB and gives me the option to: Delete Documents and Data. It does not let me see what files are there. I think it is time for me to go back to my apple store and get more acquainted with iCloud and storage and how to manage it. I had some issues with my mac about a month ago after downloading an updated version. The issue was related to syncing, iCloud, iTunes, calendar and storage. I am nervous about loosing more documents, photos, etc..from my Mac. Thank you for the information.
