Cycle of auto sync to blank icloud after Itunes restore!

Troubles With Icloud. I installed and synced my phone which was already previously synced with my outlook..dramas ensued, and i lost my calender and contacts from outlook, icloud and iphone!!! I have had to resort to restoring to a back up i did on itunes previous to losing everything. However, the back up has settings which keep telling my phone to sync with icloud once restore has finished. I have all lost info for approximately 10 seconds before it gets deleted again. Please help!

Please - anyone have any ideas?  I click on the iCloud Refresh button in Outlook and a time or two I saw a message saying incorrect password.  This Refresh button is an Outlook Add In.  Anyone know how to delete it and put the correct iCloud add-in on it?  I'm SO frustrated - I really don't have any clue what to do.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    What exactly do you mean by 'it doesn't save'.
    Does this mean it doesn't save at all, doesn't save to the iCloud folder or doesn't sync with other the devices or iCloud.com.

  • My itunes wont auto sync my iphone 4 after i connect it to itunes. But it can auto sync when i connect it to my old laptop. what's the problem that it can't auto sync and when i did a backup in my new laptop, it was corrupted the next day.

    But it can auto sync when i connect it to my old laptop. what's the problem that it can't auto sync and when i did a backup in my new laptop, it was corrupted the next day and i was forced to use back a backup which i did in my old laptop 4 months ago. do i have to reinstall the itunes? will my backups be corrupted after i sync again? pls guide.
    P.S/ its the latest version of the itunes whenever i did the backups.

    iPod touches or any iDevices from Apple sync only to one computer. If you sync to a different computer, all your music will be replace with the music from the new computer's iTunes. If the music were purchased from iTunes, you can re-download them again otherwise the music on iPod touch will be deleted. Do you have iTunes backup? 

  • Auto Sync not functioning properly after Auto Tone

    Auto Sync is functioning as expected, unless I choose Auto Tone first.
    I have about 1000 Images that I wish to apply a Preset to. When I created the Preset using New Develop Preset, I left all of the options checked except Exposure.
    I want to use Auto Tone to set the exposure for each image automatically, and then apply my preset to all images, leaving their exposures unchanged. If I apply the Preset to all of the images before selecting Auto Tone, everyting works as expected. If I choose Auto Tone first, a small portion of the selected images will be updated, but most will not. The preset will change all settings except those in the Basic Tone area. It's as if Auto Tone has somehow become "sticky" and will not allow itself to be overridden. Even if I choose a single image, apply my new settings to it, and then manually select Sync, it doesn't work for all images. It also won't work if I have have Auto Sync selected, and then make manual changes to individual sliders. It will work for some images near the ones I see in the filmstrip on the bottom, but not all of the images selected.
    This is extremely frustrating. Again, everything works exactly as expected, unless I choose Auto Tone first.

    Lightroom's handling of auto-tone leaves something to be desired - I have a lot of experience with it, trying to make reliable develop-setting plugins which include auto-toning. Those plugins have a bewildering amount of logic - something like this: initiate auto-toning, check back to see if it has properly settled, issue the auto-toning again if it never seems to be properly settling... - usually it works out after a while, but even sometimes it never does, and generates an error: can't get auto-toning to settle across all photos.
    The point of all this is that there are bugs in Lr's handling of auto-toning, as you are growing aware.
    Try this:
    * do the auto-toning, then let it percolate for a while.
    * then visit each photo at 1:1 (to force Lr to finalize settings...), and confirm auto-toning has settled...
    Then try auto-syncing that preset (make sure process versions are all the same, and preset does NOT include auto-toning - I would leave process version OUT of your presets).
    Better?
    I don't expect this is a workflow you'll want to do all the time, but as a test it might help shed some light on the problem.

  • ? Auto sync pages to iCloud?

    If I download a document from Pages in iCloud and open it in Pages on my Desktop, will it auto sync with Pages in iCloud (similar to Google Docs) or do I have to re-upload the Pages document to iCloud when changes made?

    Winston Churchill - is that your real name??  I have done a few things, I have uploaded using Numbers for an Excel File and all worked well.  I also tried to upload the Excel file, by not converting to Numbers and uploading directly from Excel....did not work. File in iCloud unuseable.
    My question was, does Numbers (or Pages or Keynotes) auto sync with iCloud (as Google Docs does with documents, without having to reformat before it auto syncs - great feature), or do I physically have to upload each time I am finished editting a document. 
    I am struggling whether to stay with the Apple iCloud while they work out their speed bumps, or stay with Google Docs, which I am very happy with, it is seamless, auto synch, don't have to re-upload each time changes are made.\

  • How to sync PC with iCloud after logging off?

    OK - I made the horrendous mistake of logging off the iCloud a couple of days ago.  I was left with some of my contacts from the iCloud - not all.  My groups were there, but no "all inclusive" iCloud Contacts.  Also my iCloud calendar was gone. I still had my iPhone and iPad connected to the iCloud - no changes there.
    When I went to log back on to the iCloud on my laptop, at first it started to copy my contacts - which were not complete (because of the ones in groups).  I cancelled the process.
    I spent almost 2 hours last night at the Apple Store Genious Bar.  They really didn't know what to do as my laptop is Windows 7 - they only knew how to do things if everything was Apple.  The first guy had me delete the iCloud contact folders on my laptop.  Then he had me wipe my iPhone clean (why I don't know, as it had stayed with the iCloud the entire time, as did my iPad).  Then he sync'd the iCloud to my iPhone, then copied to iTunes.  I now have a mess on my iPhone as all the "personalized" touches I've done over the past year are gone.
    Another employee came up and tried unsuccessfully to do anything.  A third one came up and logged into the iCloud on my laptop (through Firefox) and made a copy of the entire Contacts.  He then went into Outlook and tried to import them, but came up with a Windows error (no error number) saying it couldn't be done.
    By then my laptop battery was very low, so I went home.  I still everything all the way I had it before on my iPad - Yeah! 
    Today I did a System Restore to my laptop - all my iCloud contacts are back the way they were before I messed with things. Yeah!  However, the calendar isn't back.  I went into Firefox to log on to the iCloud.com - id that - everything ok there, but how do I make it sync with Outlook in my laptop?  I did make a change to one of my contacts in the iCloud contacts in Outlook and clicked on the iCloud Refresh in Outlook (along the top ribbon) but this change did not show up on my iPhone or iPad.
    What am I missing?  How do I put the iCloud back on my laptop?  I really would appreciate any help you could give me - the Annapolis Apple store - they just really don't know how to do things on a Windows laptop.
    Please - help?  I would SO appreciate it!

  • Help! Syncing iPad with iCloud after setting it to sync with iTunes

    I bought my iPad yesterday and synced it with iTunes. Now I want to sync it with iCloud (I have my iPhone 4 backed up in iCloud). Do I need to restore my iPad?.

    I don't actually play games on my iPad or phone but I believe that games need to work through the game centre for data to sync like that. Although its also technically possible for games to do it through document and data syncing in the iCloud system preferences, but I don't know if any games have taken advantage of the possibility yet.

  • How can I sync only certain apps after a restore instead of all of them?

    I've been serisouly frustrated with iTunes trying to find a way to sync only the apps I want to sync. But iTunes insists that I sync every single app I have downloaded in the past to my phone and I don't want all of them on there. Now after restoring I have a bunch of apps on my phone waiting to sync and now have to either restore again or individually delete all 155 of them. Are there certain settings I'm missing here?  Please help!!

    Thanks for the help I did not receive
    Hey, glad I didn't help.
    I mean, you waited a whole 38 minutes for someone to volunteer their assistance.
    FYI:
    Select the iPhone in iTunes.
    Click the Apps tab.
    Click Sync apps and tick the apps you want to sync.
    Click Apply at bottom.
    You're welcome.
    After literally digging for forever.
    Something less than 38 minutes is forever? (time it took to post first question, find answer, get upset and post 2nd time).
    Oh, and thanks for posting how you resolved the issue so others (who may not get an immediate reply) will know how to solve a similar issue without getting upset.

  • Auto-Sync Bookmarks from iCloud Account 1 to iCloud Account 2

    I have two different mac machines using two different registrations. I am able to keep the calendars, notes, reminders in sync between them automatically.
    I need to keep the safari bookmarks also in sync automatically. I don't want to manually download and upload everytime. Please suggest ideas or tips for this?

    "iCloud requires iOS 5 on iPhone 3GS or later, iPod touch (3rd and 4th generation), iPad, or iPad 2; a Mac computer with OS X Lion; or a PC with Windows Vista or Windows 7 (Outlook 2007 or 2010 or an up-to-date browser is required for accessing email, contacts, and calendars). Some features require a Wi-Fi connection. Some features are not available in all countries. Access to some services is limited to 10 devices."

  • Is there a way to set an auto sync feature to icloud and windows contacts without using outlook or Windows live messenger just straight to windows contacts?

    Need to sync icloud contacts to windows contacts without using outlook or windows live messenger on my pc, i have itunes and icloud fully set up on my pc and i have an ipad2. itunes setting for syncing to windows contacts is not working, nor will it sync to my gmail. I tried to get icloud to sync to my gmail, and thought that i could then sync my gmail to windows contacts, but icloud isn't syncing to gmail either. I configured it correctly, (or at least tried). I was able to copy the csv and all that, and do it manualy, but would like it to sync automatically. Please help.

    No, you need Outlook.

  • Cannot sync my iPhone 4S after I restored my old phone's content

    I purchaced a new (slightly used) iPhone yesterday and I had a back up on my computer from about a month ago. My old iPhone broke so I had to buy a new one. I set it up and restored my old data onto my phone, I have all of the old notes, all of the old pictures but my iPhone will not let me sync my music because "it is not authorized on this computer" which it is. I cannot restore it again, because iTunes "Does not recognize the iPhone" What can I do to fix this?

    I had the same problem, after a long discussion with Apple one of their engineers came up with the bright idea of restoring from the original backup via WiFi rather than connecting to iTunes by USB. This should give you a pretty good idea as to whether the photos are there in your backup file, as for instance it said uploading 22 of 863 photos for me, left it overnight to restore from backup via WiFi, restarted the iPhone in the morning and all of my photos had been restored. I have since backed up all photos to a very helpful Dropbox "Camera Uploads" update.
    To restore from iCloud via WiFi, on your device:
    Open Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings
    Wait for the device to restart, input Time and Date Settings and Connect to WiFi.
    Log in using your Apple ID and select Restore from iCloud Backup. (Ensure it is the iCloud backup with all relevant photos).
    Leave device to Restore overnight and restart in the morning!

  • IPhone Sync Problems with VISTA After iTunes Upgrade to 7.4

    Upon upgrading to iTunes 7.4 I was unable to sync my Outlook calendar or contacts to the iPhone. Called Apple Support that they seemed to know nothing about this problem general problem despite all of the discussions on this and many other tech. boards.
    After being told remove and reinstall iTunes and Outlook, set-up a new user account, etc... (none of which worked) I finally concluded that perhaps the .pst file being used by outlook was simply incompatible with iTunes for some reason (e.g. unsupported recurring calendar items).
    SOLUTION: Create a new outlook .pst data file. Once created, open up that new file along with the defective .pst file. Then, simply change the view of calendars and contacts in your old calendar such that you can see all of the items in a list. Highlight the items you want to keep and simply click-and-drag them to the nes .pst file. This solves all of the sync. problems I had post-7.4 upgrade. It takes less than 3 minutes to complete this painless fix.
    This was so annoying for me that I'd be happy to help someone complete this simple task if they need help. < Edited by Host, for your protection, no personal information please. >

    Then it would appear to be an issue with your router. What router? Model? Is the firmware up to date?

  • Itunes crashes during ipod sync on windows xp after itunes update

    Installed iTunes update 2 days ago on Windows XP computer.   iTunes now crashes constantly when trying to sync iPod.  Get a Data Execution Prevention message that shuts down iTunes.  I've added an exception for iTunes in DEP, but it still happens every time I try to sync and a few times it's happened after I've started up iTunes and just  tried to go to the iTunes store with no iPod connected.  How can I overcome this problem?

  • Best way to set up sync for iPhone, iCloud and iTunes

    Though have used iPhone for a number of years and a big fan, am only now jumping into Apple-land - just bought a mac mini.
    Currently, my iPhone and iPad sync with iCloud - all my contacts and mail are available.
    I set up my Mac mini with the iClound userid/password - so I get my mail and contacts there too.
    All nice and good.
    Now I have this additional option - if I connect my iPhone to the mac mini, I can sync with iTunes. I can sync contacts, photos, etc. etc. What will this do that my iCloud sync already doesn't do? I am worried about turning any of these options on and trying because I might end up with duplicate contacts. [For example, I copied all my photos to the macmini using iPhoto. Now when I check the box for synching photos in iTunes, the required space on my iPhone doubles - suggesting that I might end up with duplicates....]
    As you maybe can tell from above - I don't currently sync music, videos, podcasts, etc. I want to start doing that. Question again - what is the difference between syncing with iTunes on this mac mini vs. iCloud syncing?

    That was a loong and perhaps too generic a question. Let me ask something very specific.
    My iPhone, iPad, and Mac Mini all sync with iCloud and I have my contacts accessible on all three.
    Now when I connect my iPhone/iPad to my Mac Mini, iTunes sync becomes another option.
    If I now check the box that says "sync contacts", will I end up with duplicate contacts all over the place? I don't want to try it to see if I will or not because it can be a huge pain to get rid of the duplicates.
    Thanks!
