Computer does not automatically sync any longer?
Since installing 10.6, I noticed that my computer no longer syncs automatically with MobilMe despite preferences being set to sync daily. I noticed today that changes I had made to my Calendar on my MacBook had not showed up on my iPhone. When I went to MobilMe preferences, it said my last sync was 5 days ago. How do I resolve this?
You might do better in the +Mobile Me+ forums, hidden in the +Digital Life+ section, at: http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=116

My computer does not automatically sync the iphone. What should i do to solve this?
i cannot manually sync the phone to the computer! the only thing my computer does is to charge my iphone which my itunes cannot even manually sync to the phone through wifi!
Something went wrong with the update, which is why you should always back up before you update. And yes, your data is already lost.

Satellite C55-A-1PC purchased in November does not start up any longer
I bought this item from Amazon.de at the end of November and only had time to install MS Office 2010 as I already own a license for it and wanted to avoid purchasing the 2013 version. In anycase the notebook functioned normally afer that, but after Christmas, it could not be started any longer. When I turn it on, I can only enter my system password then it hangs for minutes before returning to the log on screen.
Can anyone help me out here? Amazon has advised me to send it back. But they can only return me the purchase price since they do not have this item on stock at the moment.
I've got 2 weeks to see if I can solve this problem.Hi Xaver,
Thanks for the tip. But how do I get to the recovery menu when the notebook doesn't even start?
Anyway, after some thought, I have decided to end my misery and send it back.
I hardly had a chance to use it really, installed MS Office 2010, worked on a few emails, watched a DVD and Skyped (though the camera was much poorer than that on my Android tablet).
It would still be interesting if someone can tell me how this came about and how I can solve this if it came up again!!!
Thank you again for all your help!

I am very excited with this ios 6, but now am very regretful that why did i updated my ios because the new ios 6 did not live up to my expectations, Youtube was gone, iTunes cannot automatically sync with my iPad, iMessages is logging out automatically, even facebook is acting wierd. facetime connection is very poor there are so many glitches with this ios 6. And I know that it is impossible for me to turn back safely to ios 5.1.1 now. Are there any suggestions you can give me? I just want my iPad 2 back to its normal and efficient stage again. Thanks
I am sorry to tell you that Apple does not provide a downgrade path for iOS. There are unsupported methods for doing so, but we are forbidden to provide that information on these forums.

ITunes does not automatically sync to iPod
When I connect my iPhone4 or iPod Classic to my mac, they will not automatically open iTunes and sync. The iPhone automatically syncs with iPhoto only. I have tried resetting my ipod and iphone and reselecting automatically sync iphone from the iphone screen in iTunes. I have also repaired permissions with no change.
What else have I missed to make these things auto-sync again.
(Running the latest iTunes and iPhone software)Hello pib1617,
iTunes Match can be enabled on your iPod Touch via Settings -> iTunes & App Store.
Turn on iTunes Match. Go to Settings > iTunes & App Store. Sign in if you haven’t already.

ITunes does not automatically sync when iPhone is connected
I upgraded to an iPhone 3g and I am unable to select the "Automatically sync when this iPhone is connected" option. It is greyed out in the iPhone Summary Tab in iTunes. I would like to automatically sync when I connect the iphone to my mac. How can I get this option available to me?
Message was edited by: eaganjsAt the iTunes menu bar, go to iTunes > Preferences.
Under the Devices tab, is "Disable automatic syncing for iPhones and iPods" selected? -

have tried network reset but my network is not showing cnnot access internet.
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

I have had my Ipod Nano (4th Generation) for about 3 years and it has worked relativley well throughout. However recently I used it until it ran out o charge completely and asked to connect to charger. I took it home that evening and plugged it into my mains charger and there was no response, so I tried plugging it into my computer (it has the lastest version of iTunes) and it did not pick up the ipod at all. I have left it on charge multiple times since that and still no response. I have been through the troubleshooting guide and that has been of no help because if i hold down either the menu + centre buttons or Centre + play etc there is no response whatsoever. Is there any way that I can fix this problem or should i just either sell it or buy a new one.
Cheers,
Mr Eloti had the same thing happen to mine. figured it was shot - but i found the ops manual online and read about 're-setting' it. it involved holding down the left & right <<&>> buttons, with yoiur thumbnails, while the ipod lays on a hard surface. i had to go thru the steps a couple or 3 times, but it did finally work perfectly and has been working fine for months since! good luck -

Since i updated to the newest ITunes my phone does not automatically sync as it did before. I am not able to locate my pictures or music or apps to set to auto sync. I receive no message that tells when the phone was last backed up to ICloud. I have several songs on ITunes under ICloud that are in the waiting status. This is all confusing. I have clicked on every available option.
Thank youI'm afraid at this point a backup can't be created anymore and the phone has been damaged too much by the water.
You'll have to get it replaced and use the latest existing backup you have. -
I can't figure out how to transfer my albums on my iphone to photo stream so that I can see them on my apple computer. It did not automatically sync.

I am new to Apple!
Ah, new to routers too.
Perhaps it's best to have a local computer support person come set you up?
To explain everything would require writing a book here.
But this is what you want basically.
Router, new Wireless N, firmware updated.
1: Two accounts, one admin, one guest Internet access. Random +30 plus character lenght passwords each preferred.
(guest password to max password length of any iDevices)
2: Encryption: WPA2 AES. No Ping. No remote access. No MAC filtering. Visible.
3: Guest access on devices and computers only. Passwords written down and stored.
4: OpenDNS preferred but not mandatory.
If you get OpenDNS, you can log into their website for free and set parental controls on things like inappropriate sites for children. So whatever device is used on your network can't access a large portion of those sites (nothing is perfect) by most users who are not technical oriented.
What your doing now is running the bare bones unsecure router which can be used harmfully against you.
Even a Apple Airport router has to be very well secured. The defautl cd and out of the box setup is not a secure solution. -
My IPad 2, IPhone 3GS ans iPod no longer work with apple TV, I have 2 apple TV in my house and for he last 3 weeks the iPod was the only one we could use for appleTV now none of them works, the apple TV icon does not show up any more. Re-started everything.
Ok thank you so much, for your timely response.
RESPONSES:
1) When I set up my iMac, I did not transfer any data directly from my windows PC. I simply used the same iTunes login and account. I have access to all of the files via the "Purchased" section of the iTunes store. If I click "Download Previous Purchases" text, I can download ALL of the purchases I have ever made.
2) I have the Apple TV 2, so good news, question answered. I thought maybe it was the Apple TV 1, but it is the Black model, so bam. Good response for you. Well the whole damned reply is an awesome response, just pointing out that one piece of awesome. I stated that it was an Apple TV 2, and yet you were still good enough to figure I could be mistaken, and provide me with knowleedge just incase.
QUESTIONS:
3) So can my iMac not stream the data directly from itunes, without download? Apple TV can, but perhaps that is something among many things that maker it unique, and awesome.
SERIOUSLY.... THANK YOU...
I work in the computer support section for the Military. The only problem is we use Windows , lol. Well that and i've been gone for nearly 6 months on recover. I go back next month though I hope. But working in that field gives me the abilty to judge responses that run inside the same vein. Your response was so awesome that I half thought I might have written it myself. -
My new iPhone 5 email is synched with my home office computer Outlook email using a POP account, but deleting an email on my computer does not delete the email on my phone and vice versa. Is there any way to get a true synch?.
POP does not support synchronization between the server and clients. You will need to use IMAP or Exchange Active Sync if your email provider supports it.

Hello everyone, Very recently itunes on my windows computer does not let me access any items in my Library except for "Apps" and "Ringtones". When I click on any other items it flashes the redcircle meaning forbidden".
When I connect my iPhone or iPad I can see every items on them but not on the iTunes Library.
They sync fine with iTunes.
I browse all the menus in iTunes but cannot find any clues to what I have done for it to happen. It worked fine previously.
Thanks for any suggestion.You should really read the manual.
"How do you restore from backup? "
Restore. When given the choice, choose to use backup.
"And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
They would only be where you put them. What program did you use to import them? Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all. You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.
