  • Syncing of calendar works only from icloud to iphone but not the other way round

    My iphone is suddenly not syncing with icloud anymore. I sync only the Calendar (ical). From the icloud calendar to the iPhone calendar syncing is working but not the other way round. I was at a genius bar but they could not solve the problem. Apple phone support suggested nothing I haven't tried like reboot etc. Any ideas how to solve the problem?

    Go to Settings>Mails, Contacts, Calendars, scroll down to Calendars section and check the Default Calendar. Must be the iCloud calendar. If you don't see this option it means that you have only the iCloud calendar in your iPhone. In that case try to turn off the Calendar from iCloud settings and turn it back on after few seconds.

  • HT201317 How do I get photos from my I phone onto my I pad? Photo stream seems to be transferring from my I pad to phone but not the other way round.

    How do I get photos from my I phone onto my I pad? Photo stream works I pad to I phone but not the other way round?

    Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
    Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
    Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
    Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
    If this doesn't help you may need to reset photo stream. You can do this at icloud.com by clicking on your name in the top right corner and then the advanced settings in the pop-up dialogue box that appears.
    Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.

  • [SOLVED]Script to replace compiz with metacity and the other way round

    Hi. I would like You guys to help me. I don't want to use fusion-icon (many complex reasons I wouldn't like to state here, just please take it for granted) and I'd like to bind a key combination for a command which would let me replace compiz with metacity and the other way round. So I think I need a script.
    What I'd need:
    detect if compiz is running
    yes -> metacity --replace
    no -> compiz --loose-binding --replace
    Can You help?

    The scripts by mojlac024 replaces compiz by metacity when compiz is running, but when metacity is running it doesn't bring compiz back.
    How to incorporate that test:
    dbus-send --print-reply --type=method_call --dest=org.freedesktop.compiz /org/freedesktop/compiz/dbus/screen0 org.freedesktop.compiz.list | wc -l
    into the script?
    PS.:
    When compiz is running, it prints 1. But when compiz is not running, it prints:
    Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.compiz was not provided by any .service files
    0
    So a simple logical test of "is this 0 or not?" won't work, I'm afraid.

  • Continuity only works mac to iPhone not the other way round

    I have a 2011 macbook pro and iphone 5.   Continuity works perfectly from my mac to iPhone 5 but not the other way round.  This did work for a short time then just stopped without me changing any settings.  Does anyone have any ideas?

    Hello ,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    What aspect of Continuity are you having issues with?  Your 2011 MacBook Pro does not meet the requirements to use Handoff and Instant Hotspot between a Mac and iOS device.  Take a look at the information in the following article to learn more about using Continuity and how to verify your settings, as well as the requirements for doing so.
    Get help using Continuity with iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite

  • How do I make my Iphone add to iCal-not the other way round

    Sorry, if I am dumb.
    Very simply, I do all my entries on my iPhone. Calendars, Contacts etc.
    How can I ensure that my iPhone updates my MacBookPro but not the other way around?
    Some of the old email addresses in my contacts are just that, email addresses. I have updated those in my phone with phone numbers and then when I sync I get them all back.
    Thanks in advance for helping.

    Do you use the Address Book application on your Mac when not accessing the iPhone for the same?
    If so, you can delete all contacts from the Address Book application as you can with any other data on your computer. Select the Address Book's All Group which is where all contacts are stored. You can edit each contact or you can delete each contact - with a contact selected at the menu bar go to Edit > Delete Card.
    Address Book data is stored somewhere - all Address Book data on your Mac is stored in a single data file located at Home > Library > Application Support > AddressBook > AddressBook.data. If you delete contact information from the Address Book, the data is removed from this data file which is what the Address Book application accesses for this data.
    Or you can delete the entire AddressBook folder with the Address Book application quit before doing so and all Address Book data will be deleted in one swoop but if you do this, all current contact information available on your iPhone will be put back in the Address Book application on your Mac during the next sync function.
    I think it is faster and easier to edit all contact information in the Address Book application on your Mac and there is also a preference setting for your iPhone sync preferences to replace all contact information on the iPhone with the Address Book information on your Mac which will revert to the standard sync process for this data during the next sync.
    Calendar events in iCal are stored in a separate iCal data file apart from the Address Book data file. Although integrated, these are separate applications with their own data file.

  • I synced my 3G with itunes for the first time and lost all contacts and information on phone, help?

    I synced my 3G iphone with itunes for the first time, and lost everything on my phone. how do i get it back?

    You don't.
    You synced your iPhone with iTunes for the first time after how long?
    And this didn't happen by syncing only. This means you transferred the backup for another iPhone or you restored the iPhone with iTunes. It is not possible for everything to be lost by syncing alone. All iTunes content on your iPhone can be lost but not any photos in the Camera Roll and the same for contacts unless you synced contacts with an empty address book application on your computer.

  • Issues: new events show from google calendar but not the other way round

    Hi,
    I've just followed the instructions to the letter on these pages: http://support.google.com/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&topic=14252&answer=138740
    & http://support.google.com/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=139206 and looked at the known issues page, but I am still stuck.
    Entries in my Google Calendar have now synced in iOS Calendar (and weekcal which I use instead of iOS Cal) - however, none of my existing entries in my iOS Cal have synced with Google Cal.
    Here are the issues:
    A recurring event created by someone else and me invited showed in iOS when I set this up
    None of my events from iOS show in Google Calendar
    New events I create in Google Calendar do not show in iOS
    New events I create in iOS don't show in Google Calendar
    To test, I deleted the recurring event which was the only one showing on iOS - immediately it was also deleted on iOS which indicates it is set-up to sync betweeb Google and iOS
    Cannot find any information on help pages about this.

    I'm not sure what else to suggest. As the Nokia 5800 is not natively supported by iSync you must be using an iSync Plugin, so I'd advise contacting the author of the plugin - it may be buggy and need fixing.

  • I want to sync my iPhone to my Mac not the other way round, how?

    I had my phone before my mac, now when i try to sync it tells me it will wipe my apps and put on the ones on my mac (ie none) how do i tell it I want the ones from my phone on (I have backed it up to the mac) i can not up grade to IOS 6 till it syncs by purchsed apps. Help please.

    The info pane synces both ways (contacts, calendars). The rest goes computer to iPhone. To go iPhone to computer: right click the iPhone in the source list at the left hand side and select "transfer purchases".

  • Isync transfers data to Ical from Nokia 5800, but not the other way round

    When I sync my Nokia 5800 using Isync, diary entries from my phone are moved onto my Mac, but entries made on my Mac are not transferred to my phone. This leaves my phone calendar without any entries. Am I doing something wrong here, or is this a bug? Does anyone know how to transfer this data back into my phone? My contacts swap both ways no problem. I have installed the Nokia 5800 app. Many thanks.

  • AZURE AD to On-premise, not the other way round

    Hello,
    I need some advice on AZURE and AD.
    I have 160 users on O365 (abc.com), I have multiple sites that are in local WORKGROUPS and use Outlook to manage their emails.
    I also have one office of 250 users on-premise AD2003 using in a domain abc.co.uk
    I want to migrate abc.co.uk to abc.com; but i dont have any on-promise abc.com AD servers.
    Will it be possible for 400 user to authenticate at Azure or do i need to install local AD servers to sync with Azure AD?
    I believe i need to install an Azure virtual server in the Azure Virtual network to add the virtual servers to for SSO.
    Any advice would be helpful.

    I forgot to mention that iOS 8.1 is installed on my iPad and Yosemite is installed on my mac

  • HT1386 I cannot find how to keep previous photo albums loaded on Ipad when syncing new ones with iTunes. The old ones are wiped out every single time

    I cannot find how to keep previous photo albums loaded on Ipad when syncing new ones with iTunes. The old ones are wiped out every single time

    If it's not too late, see Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device. As long as you have a backup of the device when the device still held your photos you should stand a chance of recovering them using a tool such as iPhone Backup Extractor.

  • I just synced my iPhone and lost all the info in notes from my phone. It was replaced with whT was on my iMac how do you make the sync go from phone to desktop and not the other way around

    I Just synced my iPhone and lost all the info in notes I had on the phone. How do you have the info sync from phone to desktop and not the other way around as I usually make contact changes etc on my phone. I would then like to be able to sync that info from desktop to ipad thanks

    It does make sense.  The iPhone is a one-person device and just syncs to one computer.
    The way it should work is as follows:
    Old computer content ---> New computer
    New computer <---> syncs to iPhone
    But the way you are trying to operate sounds like:
    Old computer content ---> iPhone
    ... and ...
    New computer content <---> iPhone
    So simply move your old stuff (either directly from iTunes, or from a computer backup) to the new computer, have it all there, then sync your iPhone to the new machine.
