Hi. My husband and I have always shared the same iTunes account. Since installing iCloud, all our contacts and calenders have merged on our iPhone 4, which we do not want. How do I rectify this? Does my husband need to set up his own apple ID?

Hi. My husband and I have always shared the same iTunes account. Since installing iCloud, all our contacts and calenders have merged on our iPhone 4, which we do not want. How do I rectify this? Does my husband need to set up his own apple ID? If so, where do I need to change his email address info, so that his calender and contacts remain his? Thank you

You can continue to use the current AppleID for iTunes, but your husband can create a new AppleID to use to create a new iCloud account that will be his own and not overlap with yours. If you do not have another email address to use for an AppleID, just get a free Gmail account and use that.
You can have as many AppleIDs as you want (or at least, as many as you have email addresses for). You can use a separate AppleID for the store, another for iCloud, and even another for iMessage if you wish.
You will want to keep the current one as the shared one for the store as all your previous purchases are permanently tied to it, and thus you need that AppleID to update or redownload your current purchased content.

In MountainLion System Preferences, "iCloud", "Mail, Contacts, and Calenders", and "Software Update" all want to open in 32 bit mode. Security and Privacy won't open either.

As stated in the header,
iCloud
Mail, Contacts, and Calenders
Software Update
all want to open in 32 bit mode. Then when System Preferences quits and relaunches IN 32 bit mode, I get a dialog box saying "You can't open (pick one) preferences because it doesn't work on an Intel-based Mac." Moreover, Security and Privacy does the same thing only without the song and dance about quitting and reopening.
Whaaaaat???!!! I've never owned anything BUT an Intel Mac.
The "open in 32 bit mode" is not, and has never been checked in "Get Info"
I tried going to ~Library/Preferences and tossing all com.apple.system preferences files and rebooting. No joy.
It actually looks like some joker has included a bunch of PPC preference panes in my copy of MountainLion, except some of them are new to this OS.
My hardware is a mid 2010 13" MacBook Pro with4 gb of RAM, and a 500 gb hard drive, in three seperate partitions, running three Mac operating systems, one at a time. I have SnowLeopard in a small partition because I still have a few things that don't run in Lion/ML. Lion is still my main use machine in the largest partition, and when ML came out, I redistributed most of the unused space into a 3rd partition into which I did a clean install of ML in it's own partition so I could work through the growing pains without compromising my main computer. I'm glad I did it that way, but I DO want to get ML working properly, and I can't do that if I can't authorize third party software. Gatekeeper is currently in the way, and I can't get it to move.

I dunno, that doesn't make any sense to me.
I just shut down and rebooted into the SnowLeopard partition and took a peek at the preference panes. There are only 3 that run in 32 bit only. They are all 3rd party, and none of the prefpanes are non Intel. Like I said, I have never owned a PPC machine. Anyhow, SnowLeopard doesn't even have an iCloud prefpane, or a combined mail, contacts, and calenders prefpane, and the ML security and privacy prefpane is all new as well. The software update prefpane is Intel and 64 bit in both SnowLeopard and Lion.
As to the triple boot, unless I'm totally mistaken, what I have here is, in essence, 3 seperate descrete computers in one box. All using the same hardware. but one at a time. I wouldn't know how to get more than one running at the same time, without using a virtual machine, even if I wanted to. (Which I don't) I do sometimes transfer files from one to another using the shared folder, but other than that, they do not interact. How could ML system preferences be trying to launch prefpanes from a totally different machine?

HT204053 My contacts and calenders stopped syncing on my I pad and iPhone any ideas?

My contacts and calenders stopped syncing between my iPad and my iPhone. It worked for a couple of moths when I first set it up.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Contacts not syncing.
First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.
Calendars not syncing.
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.

My contacts and calenders on my IPAD not syncing with my IMAC

My contacts, mail and calenders on my IPAD are not syncing with my IMAC properly. My IPhone seems to sync with IPAD okay.
Also, on my IPhone I have subfolders for a second email account, but on my IPAD and IMAC I can only access subfolders from one email account.
Please help

For Mail in order to have subfolders the email account must be an IMAP account. Check on the iPad in Settings > Mail, Contacts and Calendars > the email account in question to make sure the correct account type is selected.
If your ad is not syncing your Contacts and Calendars to the other devices go to Settings and make sure iCloud is on and you're signed in to the same iCloud account as on your other devices. Then make sure that Contacts and Calendar syncing is turned on.

My ipad 2 cant show settings email, contacts and calenders

Just bought a new iPad2. Trying to set it up. I've setup a Gmail, and thats working fine. Now I would like to setup a pop mail. When I try to access the >settings>email, contacts and calender menu, the iPad just exits the >settings menu and shows the "desktop". I cant seem to setup an additional mail from the mail program, so I need to access the settings menu.
I've tried to reboot the iPad, but to no avail.
I dont know if this matters, but I also seem to have problems with syncronizing pictures to my iPad through iTunes. The folders are present on the iPad, but there are no pictures in the folders. It seems odd, particularly since the status of the iPad in iTunes is that there seems to be 2,3gb of pictures on it.
I'm quite the green apple, so any help would be appreciated.
Cheers
Jannik

Assuming you have iOS 4.3 as your tagline suggests, its because the Software Update button was only added in iOS 5. and was not available in previous versions. Like the 4.3 you currently run.
You'll need to connect your iPad to a Computer running iTuines (Can be a Mac or a Pc doesn't matter) and follow the update prompts.
You'll probably want to back up the iPad before updating though.
In the article you came from, Scroll down to the section titled: Update your device using iTunes

Contacts and Google question

Can someone describe to me how your contacts and synching them with Google work? I noticed today that some contacts were missing on my iPhone after I deleted than re-set up my phone with Microsoft Exchange. Most numbers and calendars will all synched.
I assumed that any contact you enter in your phone would automatically get stored with Google and re-synch anytime. Thanks for clarification.
*Also, aside from Google synching, are there also contacts in iTunes that are synching with my phone?

Deleting contacts and calenders..help, pls!

I'm trying to delete the transfer of my calenders and contacts. I went into pref. and unchecked the appropriate boxes..but all the info. is still there. I want to delete to make more room. How do I do this???? Thanks for the feedback.

Good Morning,
The easiest way to delete the calendars on your nano is to click on the nano icon in the finder and put the 'Calendars' folder into the trash. (Then, empty the trash, of course .

Multiple GMail Accounts Contacts and Calendar Questions

I have a few GMail accounts, one of which I just created to keep a cleaned up version of my contacts on which leads me to my first question.
Is there a way to set the iPhone 3G up to be able to use my Contact list from GMail account A and yet when I click on Mail it gathers mail from GMail account B?
Also has anyone been able to setup Push communication with Google Calendar to be able to sync Google Calendar back and forth with the iPhone 3G without using software like Outlook?

Someone must have multiple GMail accounts; I am going to tamper around tonight and see what I can come up with but my main GMail account has contacts that don't need to be on my phone (and I can cut my list in half easily by getting rid of them).

Contacts and iCloud question(s)-

1) I have TWO iCloud accounts – one with a user “me.com” from my MM migration and a gmail.com user name from when I set up iCloud originally. My iMac is connected to both accounts but is showing that the me.com address is my “primary” iCloud account. I can log in to iCloud via the web on both accounts. Is there any way to get rid of one of them? I can see this becoming a big problem later and believe that this may be part of my other problem…
2) I have a new iPhone with all my contacts from my old iPhone. I deleted the contacts on my iMac in the hopes that I can transfer/sync from my iPhone to my iMac. When I deleted my contacts from my iMac it deleted all the contacts in iCloud (I know, I know...). All the suggestions where you go through iTunes and turn off the auto sync and manually sync the contacts in the hopes that the contacts are ‘merged’ has not worked. All I want to do is get the contacts from my phone onto my iMac and or iCloud so my contacts can propagate to the other devices – is there an easy way of doing this or am I just waiting for my empty address book in iCloud to wipe out my iPhone contacts?
Thanks in advance!

Update...
1) Second account abandoned and all devices pointing to 'main' iCloud account.
2) Turned off iCloud sync on iPhone and iPad - turned off iPhone and iPad (they have the same contact list roughly) - turned on iPhone - turned on iCloud sync of contacts - hit "Merge" - success. Contacts are now in iCloud and on iMac as well as all of my other devices ~ **whew**

I cannot sync outlook contacts and calenders

i am using Mac book air and outlook mac 2011..

I am not sure but I think the Outlook "sync" with iTunes only works in one direction - i.e. from your PC to your iPhone - if you are looking to export the contacts the otehr way round - from your phone to your PC, you can refer to the following alternative methods to sync iPhone contacts.

How do I sync contacts and calendars?

I know it seems like a basic question but here is what happened. I was getting this loud popping noise on my iPhone so I restored it as a new iPhone. I used to be able to open the calendar app (with 'push' disabled and fetch set to manual) and it would retrieve the data from my mobileme account. Since that restore, I can't wirelessly sync my cal and contacts. What changed?

Go to Settings -> Mail,Contacts,Calenders then you should be able to set up your contacts and calenders sync from MobileMe. If you have not set up your MobileMe account since you restored this is most likely your problem. You just need to set up your phone with the account again.

HT1386 Windows 8 Syncing Problem with Contacts and Calendars Office 2007 and iphone 4

I have a new Dell Inspiron 17R and just did a sync with my iphone 4. It wiped out my contact and calendar listing. I have selected the contacts and calenders sync option. It is almost like the sync process can not fine the pst file on this new Windows 8 computer.

For this particular issue, as suggested by yellowadept, go the the info tab at under the advanced section, choose replace contact information on iphone. This will over write any contact information on the iphone with what you have in address book on the computer.
However, if you are interested in what part of the 111 contacts will be changed, you could open address book first. Then highlight all your contacts and click on file>export>as vcard. Then you could back up all your contacts to your desktop. After you export all your contacts then you could sync the iphone and allow the changes to see what changes were made. If the iphone actually changed anything, then you could delete all your contacts in address book, then import the vcards back in.
Also, keeping a back-up of your contacts and calendars is a pretty good idea.
Hope this helps.

STILL Having Trouble Syncing Contacts and Calendar

My iphone sync is freezing up on either the contacts sync or calendar sync. I have read about all of the other people having problems and have already tried reseting sync history as well as syncing without ical and contacts checked. Resetting sync history made no difference and of course it syncs with ical and contacts unchecked but that does not really solve the problem as I need to have those items sync also. Are there any other things I can try, this is a huge disappointment!!

... got exactly the same problems.
The iPhone starts to write the backup while syncing contacts and calenders but then it crashes and nothing has changed in the entries.
The only way to get the contact and calender entries is to overwrite the iPhone entries, so I only can sync content from my Mac to the iPhone, not the other way around.
Apple, please solve this problem!
