Contacts and Calendar not sync across all devices

Installed mavericks a few weeks ago. Just looked at a contact on my iPad and iPhone and noted that changes made on my MacBook Pro are not showing up on either of these 2 devices. What is going on? I used to sync manually using iTunes. Tried this just now and does not update info in either calendar or contacts. I used to see :syncing Calendar, syncing contacts in the window describing progress - this does not appear.
Very very confused. Syncing across all devices very important. spend a lot of time in rural areas with no access to wi-fi. Am I trapped in iCloud only? if so How does that work?? Help!

Still confused - now I have multiple copies of the same event on my MacBook Pro, and iPad, and not at all on my i iPhone,
Just created a dummy contact on my iPad, and it appeared on MacBook Pro but not on iPhone. turned off iPhone and turned back on and new contact appeared.
My calendar on iPhone has no data from the time I started using Mavericks until a dummy event I added this afternoon. Do I need to turn my iPhone off and then back on to get it to sync? even with turning off and on the missing calendar items have not appeared.
I am a bit reluctant (afraid) to go to the web and look at my iCloud.com account for fear of sending yet another copy of the same calendar appointments and duplicate contacts / contacts info to myself on my devices. I have multiple copies of the same contact on my MacBook Pro. some of the contacts have 3 or 4 duplicates of the same information - example "home phone" or "e-mail address." Sometimes I have 3 or 4 copies of the same contact card.
Hope you are having a better day, I am completely confused and more than a bit frustrated. Has anyone written an app to replace sync services in Mavericks? I would gladly pay for it!

Contacts and Calendar not sync'ing with Outlook 2010

All was fine today until (maybe coincidental - maybe not) I had a Microsoft Exchange email account added to my Outlook 2010. I have an iPhone 4, and I usually sync daily, especially when calendar or contact changes take place. I am currently not using the icloud, so all contacts and calendar events would be way too outdated.
I have checked my Outlook settings under "info" and cannot get my contacts and address to load. I even see the "Contacts syncing"..."calendar sync'ing" when the overall iTunes sync takes place with my iPhone.
Help!!

Yes, it is. Do you have Desktop Manager v6?

Contacts and Calendar not syncing

I know everyone is having issues with calendar and outlook but I am having an issue with contacts and calendar. Anyone else having an issue with both.

I sync'd my iphone and lost all my contacts, in the phone and in my address book on my mac. You are not the only one.
Hopefully someone can help to get my information back.

Photos not syncing across all devices

This is more of a frustrated rant than it is a question. I have 3 devices, iPhone, iPad and Macbook pro.. all synced to iCloud. I am constantly having trouble with my photos not being in sync across all the devices.. i.e. my recent photos from my iPad were synced to my iPhone but they aren't showing up in iPhoto on my Macbook pro. Photos taken on those same days but using my iPhone did sync to my MacBook Pro. The iPad and iPhone are in sync together..
This is a maddening problem and I hope.. REALLY HOPE that upgrading to 10.3.3 and the new PHOTOS app FINALLY gets this right because up to know, I consider iCloud a fail due to inconsistencies like above.

ICloud not syncing across all devices

I have a macbook pro, iphone 4, and iMac. Both computers are running Lion and my iphone 4 is up to date.
I believe I set up iCloud correctly on all three devices. However, only the iMac and the iPhone seem to be syncing properly. For some reason, mail sent from me.com via my macbook pro doesn't show up in my other devices. Also, iCal entries made on my macbook pro are also not showing up.
Is there a quick fix? Some kind of setting somewhere that I need to change? All help appreciated.

mail.
Try turning mail and notes syncing off and on again on the MacBook.
calendars.
First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

Contacts and Calendar not syncing from phone to outlook

I am having a problem with my iphone 4 that I never with my iphone 3G and not sure how long its been going on.
When I had my iphone 3 whenevewr I would create or change a contact or a calendar event it would sync with my outlook info. Now if I make a change or add a contact or calendar event from my phone it doesn't change it in my outlook. But if I do it from outlook it shows up on my phone. For example I added a birthday for July 4th and its not showing up in my outlook calendar. Its created this new category on my phone for birthdays.
Same thing with my contacts. If I add a contact on my phone it doesn't sync with outlook it puts it under my iphone contacts on my phone. HELP!!

*Sync Your iPhone With Your Outlook Calendar Using iTunes*
1.Open iTunes and check to make sure that you have the most recent version. Do this by clicking on "Help" and then clicking on "Check for Updates."
2.Use the cable that came with your iPhone to connect it directly to your computer. This will automatically launch iTunes. Select "iPhone" from the iTunes source list. Click on the "Info" tab in iTunes.
3.Click on the "Sync Outlook calendars" option. Click on "Apply" in the lower-right corner of your screen. Your computer will now sync with your iPhone based on your settings.

Outlook 2010 Contacts and Calendar not syncing

I've looked thru the boards and can't find anything that helps me. My iphone syncs with iCloud but it doesn't sync with my PC.
I'm running Office 2010 and the icloud add-in are there. I've checked the Calendar and Contacts in the iCloud configuration screen and they show Outlook.
Any help would be appreciated. And does the iCloud acccount id [email protected] have to be know to Outlook and if so how is that done?
Thanks

Same problem here. I finally went at it app by app. If you turn contacts off, then you can get the calendar to synch. If you turn on calendar and contacts, then they BOTH lock up and won't synch.
The problem seems to be in the contacts app. Synch your contacts with iTunes once, and then turn off contacts in icluod. This should work.

HT4489 Ever since the last update IOS5.1.1, calendar entries are not saved on Icloud, and would not sync on all I clould devices

After the last update of IOS5.1.1, all caledar entries are not saved on Icloud and thus not synced on all my Icloud devices, even though, spreadsheets are synced, photostream is working and contacts is syncing, only calendar items. Anybody has the same problem? Or a solution to this kind or problem?

Is MS exchange the only way to keep mail synced across all devices? Can Mac mail do this without exchange? I have iPhone,iPad and new MacBook Pro, and looking for advice please.

As Bob says, any iMap service can do this. GMail can, iCLoud mail can too.
Both of these can be used with Mail on any device.

Thank you.

So you have business contacts that were lost... do you not have these on a Database in some shape or form? Sounds like you need to invest in a RAID1 backup setup for your computer so you dont have this issue in the future.
As for repairing your problem, sounds like you are going to need to start from scratch at this point or if the data is still on your phone look into a program that can take the information from the phone onto iTunes.

ICloud mail not syncing across my devices

I have my mail set up on my iMac, Macbook Pro and iPhone with my iCloud account. When I delete a message or move it to a folder it doesn't sync this across my devices unless I use iCloud logged onto the web. This means that I have to keep repeating my actions and sometimes the mail reappears after I've deleted it. How can it sync across all devices like MobileMe used to, as it's really inconvenient.
I use the Lion OS.

Not sure where you are looking to see the 0 bytes available part.
However, signing out of iCloud and back in again will trigger the push from iCloud to the device or computer you are signing out of and back in to.
To ensure that your data is stored in iCloud, go to iCloud.com and check your Calendar to make sure it has the latest data that you want pushed to your devices and to your Mac.
If everything is in iCloud, then it will push back to your device or computer when you sign back on.
Cheers,

After downloading maverick, iCloud will not sync across my devices

Since downloading Maverick [10.9], iCloud will not sync across my devices. Mail is not working properly. I'm being asked for passwords from everything.
Also, every time I close and then reopen Mail, I get a message saying "Mail cannot connect to the iCloud account "iCloud", requiring my password, again!
Is there a solution to this? How can I find out if it's server related, etc.?
Thanks to anyone out there that can help!

Try restarting your router and all the other devices.

Contacts and calendar dont sync with outlook 2013 (win8) - working with IPhone 5S and Ipad air

Dear all,
i just moved to a new PC (former: Sony Vaio pro with win 7 pro, outlook 10 > new: sony vaio duo with win 8, outlook 13 from office 365 home). i used to sync outlook contacts and calendars with blackberry and iphone and ipad on my old notebook using desktop manager from blackberry.
Now with my new PC, ipad and iphone are still working fine and they sync with outlook: new entries on outlook calendar and new contacts are added to my mobile and vice versa but when i connect my Blackberry Bold i don get any of the updates.
i confirm that i am using the latest version of the desktop manager 7.0.
my desktop manager organizer is set up to sync both ways for both calendar and contacts
Any idea please?
thank you in advance for your help

Contacts and calendars not displaying

I've copied over my contacts and calendar items [from Outlook 2003] to my iPod and they are not displaying at all [blank] when I browse to them in my device - are there any additional steps I need?
Thx for the help!

Hello fellow ipodders,
I have an ipod photo 30Gb for about 3 months now.
Running first with Itunes 5.01 and now Itunes 6.0.
When I tried to sync between Ipod and Outlook 2003 SP1 at
the end there is nothing displayed in the IPOD. No contacts or calendar items. The sync seems to go fine, even granting for access to Outlook 2003 is asked and I permit that for 10 mins. But at the end nothing in my ipod.
Is this problem somehow resolved now. It has been posted for that long time now.
BTW: I feel that Apple is only a sales company. Selling pretty expensive portable mediaplayers. But the word support isn't in their dictionary....
Brgds,
Bas.

After iOS 8 upgrade, contacts and calendar strangely syncing

After upgrading my iPhone 5 to iOS 8 (and just recently 8.0.2, which I hoped would fix it, but didn't), I'm seeing strange sync behaviour with Google contacts and calendar. Here is what is happening:
Calendar
Creating an event on the phone shows up on Google. However, I cannot edit it like I used to be able to.
Creating an event on Google does not show up on the phone.
Contacts
Creating a contact on the phone does not show up on Google.
Creating a contact on Google shows up on the phone. Editing this contact changes it on Google too. (this seems really strange to me).
This is driving me nuts!

I have similar behavior. Contact sync with google works fine, not calendar though.
I connect to Google using Exchange protocol. Have worked excellent before, but after 8.0.2 (I suspect) calendar is only partly synchronized.
Not all events gets synced from Google calendar.
I used a workaround and connected to the calendar using CalDav, which is not nearly as good as exchange protocol
