Controlling how often my Q10 syncs with my Gmail account

I cannot seem to control how often my Q10 syncs with my Gmail account. I have adjusted the settings for Gmail, Calendar, and Contacts several times, but it seems to pull the emails frequently (within an hour) regardless of the setting. I want to control the syncing manually. What am I missing? The phone is brand new and unlocked, running on AT&T, and this happens regardless of whether I am using WiFi or not.
Thanks!

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
A few possible variables...
1) What do you have set for "Use Push if Available"
2) How exactly is GMail integrated? EAS? IMAP? POP?
If the answer to item 1 is yes AND you have GMail integrated as IMAP, then the time interval setting is ignored. If integrated as EAS, it may also be ignored as well as the "Use Push..." setting might also be ignored. If integrated as POP, then there is no Push, so your time interval settings would be utilized.
So, depending on the combination of factors, it may or may not be doing exactly now what it should be.
Good luck and let us know!

How many iPods can sync with One iTunes account?

How many iPods can one sync with an iTunes account ? I have searched the net and there are many different posts but none conclusive. So was wondering if anyone here had a clear idea on that.
Thanks in advance,

But how many ipod can I sync with only one iunes store account?
None.
iPod don't sync with an iTunes account.
iPods sync with iTunes on a computer.
You can have 5 computers authorized to play songs/movies from one iTunes account.
Each computer can have 5 iTunes accounts authorized.
An iPod can have music/movies from 5 different iTunes accounts.
Note that this only applies to iTunes purchases with DRM, which is movies, tv shows and older iTunes music. All music now purcahsed is DRM free.

HT1146 I have a macbook pro and an imac, I have both these mails synced with my gmail account, when im on the macbook and open the mail I get it just fine but I dont get it on my imac afterwards and vice versa. How can I get all my mails on both machines?

Need some help with this please..

Open Mail, then under Mail, Preferences, look at the gmail account and find the settings for the account...see how the deletion is set. If it deletes on opening, or when removed from the inbox (same thing) change that so the email stays available on the server. Do that on both machines. See if that makes things work right for you.

ICloud calendar is not syncing with my gmail account

My gmail calendar is syncing with my iCal on my computer but not with the calendar on my iCloud on my computer, even though it must be syncing with iCloud or how else is my iCal on my computer getting it? I can't find my gmail calendar on my iCloud calendar even though it's turned on in preferences.

Mac Mail won't sync with 2nd Gmail account

I'm using Mac Mail (ver 6.6) on OSX 10.8.5 on my Macbook Pro.
I have my Mac Mail set up to fetch mail from multiple email accounts through IMAP. One of these is my old trusted personal gmail account, and it has been working fine for 2 years. However, yesterday, I added a new email account called "d-ourovino", which is for a business. The "dourovino" account is hosted at gmail as well. It is now working and syncing fine. But since I've added "dourovino", my old personal gmail account has stopped syncing, even though I didn't change any of its settings. What is going on? I'm at a total loss. Any suggestions?
See screenshot below...

This unlocking of the CAPTCHA also got my gmail to work. I think, just by noticing how gmail works, that if you make too many sign in requests within a certain amount of time---they load the CAPTCHA process to make sure you're a real person and not a computer. Since I was signing off and on repeatedly trying to figure out why it wouldn't take what I KNEW to be the password---turning off the CAPTCHA function just let gmail take your user name and password and log in. YEAH FOR THE HELP!!

I have some music from CDs and recent purchases from iTunes on my iPhone 4 that are not synced with my iTunes account on my computer. How can I sync my phone and iTunes on my computer without losing what is on my iPhone? (original computer was stolen)

I have some music from CDs and recent purchases from iTunes on my iPhone 4 that I would like to sync with my iTunes account on my computer. The CDs were on my original laptap also, but it was stolen and I set up the iTunes on my new computer.
When I try to sync I get a message indicating that the iPhone iTunes will be replaced with the computer iTunes.
How can I sync and retain both iTunes?

Music is designed to sync in one way only, and that is from iTunes to the phone. There is the expectation that you would backup the computer to save this data. There are 3rd party solutions to try and recover music from the phone to put back into a blank iTunes library.

How do I set up my iphone to sync with my outlook account?

How do I set up my iphone to sync with my outlook account?

Hi maryannmc,
You have two options.
1. You can plug the iPhone into iTunes and select the "Info" tab and choose "Sync Mail Accounts" and this will transfer the settings across.
2. In the iPhone you can go to Settings > General > Mail, Contacts and Calendars and choose "Add account"
You will need to know if your account is POP, IMAP or Exchange and this will help determine what settings you need to enter and how to set it up so both your computer and iPhone can receive email.
The iPhone can add most popular accounts with ease such as gmail, yahoo or hotmail.
Hope this helps,

How often does iCloud sync ?.

How often does iCloud sync my devices ??

Your Mac's address book, on the front page - was the address you added inside a group that is listed in the general category "iCloud" or "On my mac" ? If the latter, then that doesn't sync to iCloud. If iCloud, you might try a small editing change to the entry, like erase last letter of last name, get out of address book, go back in and put the last letter back in. That should force a sync.

How often does Firefox Sync back-up data? I see there is no preference selection allowing you to change the pre-set frequency (whatever that interval may be).

How often does Firefox Sync back-up data? I see there is no preference selection allowing you to change the pre-set frequency (whatever that interval may be).

However, the sync action only triggers every 60-minute and there is no user-configurable option provided. Although one can put a Sync icon onto the toolbar for easier access, it is still far from practical needs.
To unlock this limitation, do the following:
1) Type “about:config” at the address bar
2) Search for “services.sync.syncInterval”
3) Change the value from 3600000 (milliseconds = 3600 seconds = 60 minutes) to any value (in millisecond) of your choice
4) Close and restart Firefox
The Sync action will now trigger at the interval you just set.

HT4191 I have lost several days notes with the note app. What could be the issue? I have attempted to sync with my email account but noticing appears in my email. I thought this would act as a backup. Also how do I verify where the notes were being saved

I keep losing notes once I've added them. I don't know how to confirm where they are being stored. I'm wondering if the storage could be full. Also tried to sync with my yahoo account thinking that might help. But not sure how I get existing notes to sync with the account....they didn't show up once I turned that feature on.

you can check to see if there by logging into your account at icloud.com

I just bought a new computer, how can I start syncing with this computer without erasing everything already on my iphone?

I just bought a new computer, how can I start syncing with this computer without erasing everything already on my iphone?
Everytime I try to use the option sync manual it wants me to erase everything.
Please help

The iPhone can be synced to one and only one computer at a time. Before you "marry" it to your new computer, be sure your new computer contains all the old computer's information. When you sync the iPhone to a new computer, it will be erased first. Then, whatever is on your iTunes Library will be synced to the iPhone.
Read: iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
You can also copy its previous backup from the old computer to the new one, then "restore from backup".
From iTunes: About iOS backups
Where iTunes backups are stored on your computer
The folder where your backup data are stored varies depending on the computer's operating system. Make sure the backup folder is included in your periodic data-backup routine.
iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: To quickly access the Application Data folder, click Start, and choose Run. Type %appdata% and click OK.
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata% and press the Return key.

How many ipads can sync to one itunes account?

how many ipads can sync to one itunes account?

You can use a single Apple ID with a maximum of ten devices and computers (combined). Only five of them can be computers. So if you're only authorizing iPads and no computers, then you can authorize 10 iPads with one Apple ID.
Here's some verbiage from Apple's Terms and Conditions:
Association of Associated Devices is subject to the following terms:
(i) You may auto-download iTunes Auto-Delivery Content or download previously-purchased iTunes Eligible Content from an Account on up to 10 Associated Devices, provided no more than 5 are iTunes-authorized computers.
(ii) An Associated Device can be associated with only one Account at any given time.
(iii) You may switch an Associated Device to a different Account only once every 90 days.
(iv) You may download previously-purchased free content onto an unlimited number of devices while it is free on the iTunes Service, but on no more than 5 iTunes-authorized computers.
