Fotos for Mac, sync to iCloud incomplete

I do have 8,500 photos in my Fotos (Mac App) library. 5,000 of them were already synced to my iCloud account. Now it stops syncing. if i look at the options, it says "uploading 20" but nothing happens. My iCloud drive has enough free space, so it should work. Restart didn't help.
Has anyone a similar problem an can help?
Thank you.

Are the 20 photos perhaps referenced? Then they cannot upload to iCloud.
You can check with a smart album, if you have any photos in the library, that cannot upload to iCloud.

I have two AppleID's. Can I set up a new Apple ID just for document syncing in iCloud? How?

I have two AppleID's. Both use known email addresses. I need absolute security for documents. Can I set up a new Apple ID just for document syncing in iCloud? How?

Sorry, I did not mean to imply that security was non-existant or horrible, just it is online, so no absolutes.
iCloud is really not useful, IMO, for collaborating as only you or your AppleID enabled devices can access the files.
I have multiple online storage accounts with the common free services, but my most used is www.box.net. Many document apps will readily support it, and even if one does not, you can use the box.net app itself to access files, then open them in the app usually. And you can share your online folders, with reasonable controls on access to keep control of who can see (and upload or download) what.
A lot of people I know use dropbox as well, but they are usually using paid accounts (often their company sets one up for them to use to exchange files with clients) and I don't know how much better is the security on a paid dropbox account versus a free one. I suspect the free ones are on a par with box.net.
You could also use add security by using some sort of PGP or other encryption tools to encrypt files put up on the shared folder(s). You'd exchange public keys with your colleagues so they could decrypt those files once they download them. That may be overkill for many peoples needs though.
Another option, if you have an online hosting account, is to get one that offers SFTP access and use that for sharing files (the downside of that is having to distribute the password to colleagues, so you could loose control of it if one of them is careless or thoughtless with it). It seems more and more document-type apps for iOS are supporting generic FTP and SFTP as well as the popular free online storage solutions.

Why can't Outlook for Mac sync with iCal

Why can't Outlook for Mac sync with iCal

Because Microsoft didn't update their software to work with the new OS.

Fotos for Mac consume a lot of the CPU because VideoConversionService

What is the Photos for Mac Video Conversion Service? This service is consuming all the CPU of macbook air (arround 150% of CPU) every time I open the Fotos for Mac. Somebody knows why is happening it? The name of the service is com.apple.photos.VideoConversionService.

Seriously, no one has an answer to this? My fans are on almost constantly and I am running really slow and something called com.apple.photos.VideoConversionServices is using like 300%+ of my CPU.
Anyone know how to stop this or fix this or what this is?

HT204053 Can I see Excel and Word for Mac documents on icloud?

Can I see Excel and Word for Mac documents on icloud?

No, I already have Microsoft Office for Mac on my macbook and on my imac. I want to share the documents from one (imac) to the other through Icloud. But it doesn't show them as an option. How do you share documents on one computer to the other within the same house?

Syncing Office for Mac Files with ICloud

I am using Office for Mac on both my iMac and Air. I want to sync my Word, Powerpoint and Excel files between the computers using ICloud. Can/how do I do this?

Office for Mac does not support iCloud.
You can save Office files to iCloud using Pages, Numbers and Keynote instead of Word, Excel and Powerpoint.

Can't sync Outlook for Mac Calendar with iCloud

I've just updated my Macbook Pro to OS X and now I can't get my Outlook for Mac 2013 (14.3.9) Calendar to sync with my iPhone 5. It seems iTunes no longer allows for syncing calendars and it all has to happen via iCloud. Is this correct? How do I get them to sync, then? I've looked in other discussions (from a while ago) and none of those fixes are working. Thanks in advance!

Thank you, randers4. Not the solution I wanted but I am glad to get an answer. I'd thought that since the support articles I'd seen came out before the latest update (you're right, I do have 2011) that maybe there was a work-around. Of course all of this has been discovered after I entered my three kids' baseball/softball practice and game schedules into Outlook. Any quick and dirty way to transfer it all over?
Thanks so much for taking the time to answer me. Copious amounts of time has been wasted on this issue and I'l be glad to move forward.
Warmly,
Sara

Outlook 2011 for Mac Syncing with iPhone 5

THIS IS WHAT I HAVE:
Macbook Pro running OS X (10.8.2) - Mountain Lion
iPhone 5 running iOS 6.0.1
Outlook for Mac 2011 (14.2.4)
I am coming from a PC that ran the most current Outlook and iTunes. Before I switched to my Macbook Pro I was able to input calendar items into Outlook on the PC and then plug my iPhone 5 into the PC and everything would sync accordingly. Ever since I switched over to Mac my Outlook calendar items will not sync.
THIS IS WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO DO:
Sync my Outlook calendar and contacts between my iPhone 5 & my Macbook Pro. It sounds simple but after reading almost every post possible I have come to a conclusion that I might have to switch back to my PC for such a simple problem.
Can anyone with this same problem help me with success?
If not is there anyone that can suggest any other way that I can have everything synced up? I have tried icloud but I don't want everything in the cloud.
Thank you in advanced.

Outlook on mac sync with iCloud

Using Icloud I want to sync Microsoft Outlook on my Macbook pro. It seems that I can do this on my PC but not on the MAC. I can not see the "Icloud" folders.
Can this be done?

Why Won't Reminders for iOS Sync with iCloud?

I've been forced to use iCloud for Reminders now that I've upgraded to Mac OS X Mountain Lion. Because Reminders & Calendar share a checkbox on Mountain Lion, I've been forced to use iCloud for that, too, because once that checkbox is checked, Calendar refuses to sync with my phone via iTunes.
Now, the sole reason I've done this is to sync Reminders between my iPhone 4 and my iMac, but no matter what I try, after the initial sync when iCloud is set up, changes to my Reminders (additions, edits, etc.) refuse to make it to iCloud. I know because I've added and changed numerous reminders in the last few days, and none of those changes show up on iCloud.com. So this is an issue between iOS and iCloud's servers.
This has been going on since I upgraded OS X and enabled iCloud last weekend, and the only time I've managed to resolve it was by doing this:
1. Backing up all my Calendar & Reminders data
2. Turning off iCloud for Calendar and Reminders on both my iPhone and iMac (making certain to preserve the Reminders stored on my iPhone, which had the most recent changes)
3. Deleting all the Reminders shown on iCloud.com
4. Turning iCloud back on for both devices.
I'm not sure if all these steps were necessary (especially deleting the Reminders from iCloud.com), but the even if the other 3 steps are, it is unacceptable to me (and anyone with half a brain) to need to turn iCloud off and back on every time I want a backup of my iPhone's Reminders on a different device (in case I lose the iPhone or it is destroyed).
In case anyone was wondering, I've already tried all the troubleshooting steps at http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4000. I'm running the latest version of OS X Mountain Lion with all applicable updates, and my iPhone is running the latest version of iOS 6 (6.1.3) that Apple will allow me to have. Yes, that means I haven't patched the SSL bug, but I'm rarely away from home, and when I am, I am rarely somewhere with accessible (not locked) wi-fi. In addition, my home network is secured and running good encryption, so I'm not worried. I just turn my wi-fi off when away from home.
Oh, and upgrading to iOS 7 is out of the question at this point in time, because I don't like it (especially the look and the combined Address/Search bar in Safari, among other things) and I'm concerned about battery life/performance. Also, I've seen a class-action lawsuit going around right now regarding the fact that iOS 7 can potentially fry the Broadcomm wireless chip in older iPhones (i.e. mine).
So, with all this info in mind, can someone help me?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Check that all your contacts are in your primary iCloud group, only contacts in this group will sync with your primary iCloud account.
In the example above I have a secondary iCloud account, but you might also see a 'On My Phone' group.

HT202806 Chrome for Mac automatically uninstalls iCloud Bookmarks extension

iCloud for Windows includes a Chrome extension that allows you to sync your Chrome bookmarks in Windows with your Safari bookmarks on your Mac.
There is a problem though. If you have Chrome installed on your Mac and run it, Chrome identifies that the extension is not compatible with Chrome for Mac and it then automatically and without asking uninstalls the extension. As extensions are synced across all your Chrome browsers across multiple platforms, when you next run Chrome for Windows, the extension also gets uninstalled, leaving you back where you started without the ability sync bookmarks.
This seems primarily to be an issue with the way Chrome handles compatible extensions, but thought I'd raise it here in case anyone else has noticed this and has any advice.
Does anyone know of a way to prevent Chrome from automatically removing the extension? Or maybe there is an option to stop cross-OS extension syncing. Simply never running Chrome again on my Mac is not an option as I require it in addition to Safari.

It's not necessary because iCloud bookmarks come from Safari. The extension is there so that you can sync your bookmarks from Safari on your Mac and easily access them using Chrome on your PC.
If you read the description for the extension, you would realize that.
Keep your Chrome bookmarks on Windows up to date with the Safari bookmarks on your iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
Chrome can already sync bookmarks via Google that can be accessed using Chrome on another machine without the need for an extension. If you want to use Chrome on all your machines and sync the bookmarks, google already has you covered there.

Outlook 2011 for Mac Sync

I purchased a Q10 several weeks ago and still cannot get it to sync with my Outlook 2011 for Mac. I have installed the latest update to Blackberry Link but as was the case when I first tried the calendar and contact sync section is greyed out. I can sync it with a Windows PC with no problems but I really need it to sync with the data on my Macbook Pro.
I would appreciate knowing whether this is even possibe or what I might be doing wrong. I am running OSX 10.8.5.
Thanks

two ways of doing this, you could try http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2452489, or drag each individual calendar event into iCal. You can't do multiple items has to be one... at... a... time.

Microsoft Outlook 2011 for Mac sync Contacts and Calendar issues

OK, so I have a Macbook Pro with OS X Mountian Lion. I have Microsoft Outlook 2011 for Mac installed. Asked @BlackberryHelp on Twitter how to sync my Blackberry Torch with Outlook as it seems to default to using the builtin Apple Contacts and Calendar instead of Outlook. So they sent me the link to KB19148: "How to synchronize organizer data in Microsoft Office for Mac between the BlackBerry smartphone and a Mac computer using BlackBerry Desktop Software". So I turned on the Sync Services in Outlook and it gave me the dialog box confirming that everything was synced. And it appeared to copy and sync whatever Contacts in the Apple Contacts and calendar entries in the Apple Calendar into Outlook and vice versa. Cool since that's what I wanted.
Then I tried using the Blackberry Desktop Manager to sync everything to my Blackberry Torch 9810. Everything looked like it synced until I opened my Blackberry and all my Contacts were gone. Same with my Calendar entries, except that the Calender entries were hit and miss to whatever copied over (some Calendar entries were missing and others were duplicates). Checked the Apple Contacts and all of them were gone. But when I opened Outlook, everything was there and all OK.
So am I missing something? Turning on Sync Services in Outlook should sync all my Contacts and Calendar with my Blackberry when I use Blackberry Desktop Manager, correct? So why is it still syncing with the Apple Contacts and Calendar (and why did it delete all my Apple Contacts and mess up my Apple Calendar)?
Good thing I backed everything up first so restored everything. But I have all my updated Contacts and Calendar in Outlook and I still need to sync all of that. I don't want to manually do it. So how do I fix this??

After a bit of googling I think you mean the notation "domain\username", i.e., a backslash separator but no leading backslash.
I am not familiar with that notation but apparently it is valid in some contexts. I googled "os x "domain\username"" to confirm this notation. Here's one of the hits that shows the notation:
OS X Lion: Guidelines for connecting to a DFS namespace via SMB
I think "DFS" is a distributed file system. That's as much as I know about this.

Outlook 2011 for Mac syncing with OSX Yosemite

Hi All
One major thing holding me back from updating to Mavericks and Yosemite is the seeming lack of support for syncing between Office 2011 for mac and the mac address book/calendar etc. I've been down the road of internet based mail with gmail and mac-mail but find them awful to use in comparison with Outlook. The functionality is not as good, simple things like capitalising first letters of sentences. Signatures look awful, fonts default etc etc and it just generally looks amateurish from the recipient end. I decided long ago to stick with Outlook 2011 but back then I could sync addresses, emails, contacts with address book and ical hassle free at the touch of a button. I am still running 10.8.5 on the office machine for this very reason and scared to update to Mavericks or Yosemite as I've done on my back-up machine and can see this no longer is supported. Can anyone help with this? I assume as it was once supported and now isn't its unlikely to be resupported. What should I do? I hate the idea of third party applications to get this to work. In the past this has lead to things being messed up and hours spent resetting. There was talk of Office for Mac 2014 but nothing seems to have materialised? Any thoughts/recommendations gratefully received...

I use Office 2011 on the Mac, and the absence of syncing contacts is a pain. For a while now I've use OS X Mail instead, which by and large handles Exchange email ok. Since Yosemite, my Mac email has gone downwards, so I'm not trying Airmail 2 which also has Exchange support and is a good deal more modern than Mac Mail. There is no sign of Microsoft ever updating Office for the Mac and catching up with three years of not updating Office 2011, apart from the occasional hint.
With Yosemite, Mail crashes, and looking at the log messages is having issues. I've done a clean install of Yosemite, and despite that still can't achieve stability. It may be me, or it may be Apple, hence the experiment with Airmail 2.
I have also not found any simple way to sync Outlook 2011 contacts with OS X Contacts in Mavericks or Yosemite.
