Having 2 iphones sync to the same Exchange mailbox calendar and contacts??

I would like to have 2 people monitor the same Exchange mailbox for calendar and contacts, is this possible via ActiveSync and the iphone or some other protocol? I have a business owner and his assistant that want to have constant access to the owner's calendar and contacts. Or maybe there is a simpler way to do this. thanks for any advice.

If IMAP account access is enabled for the assistant's Exchange account at the Exchange server, the assistant's email account can be accessed as an IMAP account with the iPhone's mail client, but the assistant will have access to the boss's contact info and calendar events only. Email access for the boss's Exchange account can be turned off on the assistant's iPhone. The assistant can access personal contact info and calendar events over the air with a MobileMe account at the same time as the boss's contact info and calendar events via the Exchange account.

HT201253 iPhone sync using iTunes gets stuck at Calendar and Contacts

This used to work a little while ago, and I cannot pinpoint when it stopped working - I can't
sync Contacts or Calendars to my iPhone 5s from my Outlook 2010 via iTunes.
I think it might have been the latest iOS release on the phone that messed things up, but I am
not sure.
Whenever I try to sync iTunes hangs at 'Syncing Calendars' or at 'Syncing Contacts' depending on
which one I choose to sync. If i uncheck both options, under 'Info' in iTunes, the syncing will
complete without issues, but I really need my Calendar entries and Contacts ESPECIALLY.
Here is what I tried:
- Repaired, Removed reinstalled Outlook 2010
- Repaired, removed reinstalled iTunes (12.0.1.26)
- Tried to sync with a different User's profile for Outlook, a version that had all of my
Contacts and Calendar entries, and also a clean version with no Calendar entries.
- Reset Sync History on iTunes
- Deleted old backups and retried the syncing...
NONE of the above allowed me to successfully sync Outlook Calendars and Contacts with my iPhone
PC - Windows 7, i5-2400 @ 3.10, 16 GB DDR3
iTunes - version 12.0.1.26
iPhone - 5s 16 GB, Version 8.1.1 (Verizon)

I had it hanging on Calendar sync as well ...
This worked for me:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627
I also had crazy dupes of calendar items previously except on my iphone, so the idea was to get the singular calendar of events synced back to my computer. So ...
I made sure Calendar was empty on my computer: ~/Library/Calendars/
Cleared out. Emptied Trash.
Then per above link, cleared sync services from terminal:
/System/Library/Frameworks/SyncServices.framework/Versions/A/Resources/resetsync .pl full
Plugged in iPhone, set my prefs again, sync'ed. Went thru the sync quickly and got everything back to normal with only single events.
The key here (on dupes) is to have at least ONE version of your calendar in good shape. And that may be thru your iphone backups.
(sorry I know I switched thread topics, but sync and dupes seem to go hand in hand)
Hope this helps.

Yes, you stop using the same Apple ID under Settings > iCloud.

Can I sync Office 2013 Home premium Outlook calendar and contacts across all my computers without using Hotmail account

I don't want to use a Hotmail account to do this.
Is it possible?
The licence is for 5 PC's but seems to have no sync ability.

I just went to Windows 8.1 and I purchased Office 365 home premium for 5 PCs or Macs and 5 mobile devices. No where in the page or the "learn more info" did it say it would not sync up with iPhones and iPads. I am concerned I wasted my money because
I truly wanted to have Outlook on my iPhone and Ipad. There is an OWA for iPad and Iphone available but I have deducted that it needs Microsoft Exchange which is not included in the home premium version of office365. I am not sure what good it does to advertise
syncing with mobile devices when it truly will not sync up. Is this True?
For $100/year, you would think exchange could be included so these syncing issues would not be a problem. I do not want to keep up with more email accounts just to make it work with Microsoft.
I am trying to keep things simple. I do use iPhones and Ipads, and based on the advertising for office 365 all my current issues would be seamlessly fixed by going this route. I'm afraid not unless someone can give me the simple solution that does not
require a PHd in computer saavy. I am not a rookie, but after 4 hours of trying everything I know to make it work, I just could not do it through my new office365 software or the apps for Iphone or Ipad. In addition, there were conflicting answers and
responses from Microsoft when I called or chatted with their support people.
BTW, I did download iCloud onto my new laptop and it knew that it was not syncing with Outlook and immediately asked if I wanted to fix. Downloaded the fix, restarted system, and calendar and contacts immediately synced up on my apple devices and my
new computer.
The funny thing is that I still cannot get Office365 to sync with the windows 8.1 calendar or contacts app on the start page using my POP email account that I have had for many years. I also think it needs exchange. Please provide some guidance
here.
I'm trying not to be difficult but am looking for the software to work as advertised so I can stick with all office products. If not, just give me a refund and I will buy a stand alone version for my PC and sync up with Apple apps which work well and
are much less expensive. Thanks for your assistance.

Where should I look to find out how to unmerge and keep separate 2 Contact lists from 2 different iPhones syncing to the same iMac?

I am a relatively new iMac user (2009), but don't use the computer for much beyond basic communication and media functionality (internet, iTunes, iPhoto, syncing iPhones, etc.). I have a new iPhone 4S (switched from a Droid) and my wife has an iPhone 4. When I was using the Droid I was not syncing my contact info or any other information through my iMac. Once I moved to the 4S and transferred all of my contact information, I set up my Contacts to sync with the iMac, and also set up my wife's iPhone to do the same. Now we have one master Contact list, so all her Contacts are on my phone, and all mine are on hers. I don't necessarily want all this extra data on my iPhone.
Another relevant fact is that my wife uses my iTunes login info for her phone, i.e., for app and music purchases, etc. I wonder if this may have something to do with it?
What do I need to do to separate our profiles? I am happy to do some searching within the community but did not even know where to start.
Thank you!

i have 2 separate IDs and also 2 separate itunes library hoping the contacts won't sync and mix together but both libraries only syncs from/to the same address book in my MBP. i cant separate the separate the contacts in the address book unless i manually move our hundreds of of contacts into different groups then sync from only my group.... but thats just too much... any easier way?

Can more than one iPhone sync to the same Calendar and Contacts List?

My partner and I are thinking about buying iPhones, but before we do so I want to make sure that we can both sync to the same Calendar. So, for example, if she makes plans with friends (and updates her iPhone Calendar accordingly) I also want the appointment to be entered into the Calendar of my iPhone when I next sync it. Has anyone done this? Is it possible?

I sync using mobile me - over the air, my wife syncs via itunes, we keep several calendars in ical.
You can look through the manual as well. It may help you figure out what iphone can do.

I keep getting exact duplicate songs in playlists and libraries, how can you filter this out when upgrading these lists, or sync to the same device again? And how to do it without going through each and every P'list or Library ?

I have Windows XP-Pro SP3, the latest upgrades of Three media players, iTunes being the default player. I keep getting duplicates in playlists, libraries etc., of the same version of song. Everytime i make a change or renew my media to device or SYNC it wants to add duplicates to the computer disk, lists etc. Can you filter out same copies without having to edit each and every song, which in my case is quite large. For instance if you want to convert all mpeg, or mp4-a files to AAC you will end up with duplicates of each file type. Or you sync to an ipod, the library adds to itself---- including copies of songs already in it, if in a different file version.

Your refer to:
" if you want to convert all mpeg, or mp4-a files to AAC "
This will always duplicate files within iTunes. I need to ask why you're doing this conversion - all formats are compatible with iTunes, and conversion between mp3 and AAC will always involve some loss of quality.

Can iPhone Sync with Exchange Server - Calendar and Contacts?

Gateway Windows XP Pro Outlook 2003
Gateway Windows XP Pro

My colleague who uses Windows at the office has synced her calendar with Outlook 2003; that should not be a problem. The iPhone directly syncs contacts with Outlook 2003 as well.
iPhone does not connect to Exchange Servers directly unless they are setup for IMAP or POP e-mail access. And in those cases it is not syncing calendar or contact info with the server, just e-mail. (As an aside, we have not been able to get the iPhone to retrieve e-mail using POP to connect to our Exchange server. POP is working fine (lots of other e-mail clients use it without a problem), but the iPhone cannot connect).
Hope that helps.

I have an ipad and iphone synced to the same windows pc, my pc died and i bought a new one can i restore the info on my idevices to my new pc?

how can i get the info on my idevices over to my new windows pc, i didn't upgrade to ios 5 so i don't have them set up with icloud yet. also on my old pc i was using outlook now I'm planning to use thunderbird. is thunderbird compatible with the idevices or should i use windows live mail instead?

Oh nice, there's a PassKeeper application for the iPhone and iPad. Simply install it and it should talk you through steps, otherwise their website is probably a great place to check.

I really like the application 1Password, and it works across all the products, Mac, PC, iPad, iPhone.

I have 2 iphones registered under the same appleID. Every text message that is sent to my phone, the other phone receives as well. If I turn "imessage" off on the other phone, will this solve the problem from her receiving text messages meant for me?

I have 2 Iphones, registered under the same AppleID. Mine, and my mom's. I recently (today) did the software udate for her phone, and ever since-she receives every message i send to my girlfriend, and every response that my girlfriend sends to me. I read up on Imessage, and checked the settings on both phones. On each phone "imessage"was turned on, so i turned Imessage off. Will this solve the problem of my mom receiving every message that i send and receive? Also, if i turn Imessage back on, on my phone-will i still have privacy to text?

Why not create a second Apple ID? Wouldn't that solve the problem much more straightforwardly?
Here's a helpful website: http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/

I can hardly believe my old school Palm Pre was much friendlier than the IPhone. I have had it for more than six months and still cannot sync my Outlook calendars and contacts. I get a message like, "no calendar application identified." help!

My old school palm pre was much friendlier than the IPHONE 3G. I was able to sync my outlook calendars and contacts via wi-fi effortlessly. I tunes did sync once or twice in the six months that I have had it, but more often it acts like it is syncing and ultimately delivers a message like "no calendar application is supported". Why the back and forth. Very frustrating after literally hours of trying to sync my phone with my Outlook calendar and contacts. HELP!!!!

What version of MS Office do you have installed? Have you tried re-installing office over top of itself? It may not be properly registered with the OS.

Syncing Calendars and Contacts without the complete home folder on the server

I've been trying to set up syncing of calendars and contacts using Mavericks server. I've read a lot of posts on various ways of doing this but am at a loss as to the how the various parts of the solutions work which may be why I haven't been able to get things to work.
I've installed Server.app and got Open Directory set up. I want to sync the calendars for two users on a couple of client machines (both running Snow Leopard at the moment) and three mobile devices. The clients were set up before the server and so the user accounts are local. Putting the home folders and all the files they contain on the server is not an option as there's not enough disk space. Ideally I'd like to have all the user files on the local machines and only the data I need to sync on the server. Is this possible? All of the information I've read on migrating local users to network users suggests that their complete home folder needs to be put on the server and I've not found any way to set up the syncing successfully without making them network users.

Thanks for the answer Simon. That seems simple enough but there are some things which aren't clear.
If I create accounts on the server for the users independently (ie not ownership of the home folder) they're going to have different UID's. Surely this means that even with the same account name and password, they're going to be treated as unique users. Does that not affect who has write access? I don't know how the Calendar and Contact servers work so this may be irrelevant.
How do you "have the server host their calendar and contact details"? Copying the files for the existing local users to the new users on the server will leave them with invalid permissions.
I have read that using the Calendar and Contact components of Server.app is not a supported way of syncing across machines and that they're intended to be used for shared information rather than syncing. But maybe there is no way to avoid an "unsupported method" without moving the home folder. Is this a method you're using?
I'll do a bit of testing with this but would also be grateful for any additional hints.

Calendars and Contacts not syncing between iPhone and Mac

Hello.
I am using a MacPro4,1 (early 2009) running OS X 10.9.1, and an iPhone 4 running iOS 7.0.4.
In iPhone, Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Calendars Settings are set to: Sync – All Events.
In iTunes, Sync with this iPhone over Wi-Fi is checked.
Calendar and Contacts aren't syncing, in neither direction, neither over Wi-Fi nor by cable. (I haven't, and won't try iCloud or however that thing is called now.)
No idea why. I'd be thankful for any hint.

so there's nothing but iCloud to do this? Is there a workaround? Or do I have to use either other a different set of applications, or another set of operating system and hardware? Not syncing is no option, iCloud isn't either, changing systems is.

2 iphones 1 comuter - how to get 2 different calendars and contacts on each

I have been using my iphone 3G for a few months and syncing to outlook for contacts, calendar and notes. My wife has just got her own phone (3G). She logs in to the computer with her own account and has her own itunes library so there is no problem with us syncing different music libraries. Problem is we want to set-up an outlook file for her with her calendar, contacts and notes.
When she is logged in though and opens outlook instead of being able to create her own outlook calendar, contacts list and notes she seems to be opening mine (even though she is logged in as her). How can she set up her own outlook without altering mine or having to see all my information?
Anyone managed to get two iphones syncing on the same computer but different user accounts to different Microsoft Outlook 2003's. This may be more an outlook question than an iphone one!

This is an Outlook problem, and a bit tricky to fix via long distance through a forum. So if you have a local Windows expert ask them to look at it. If you want to try yourself I'll see if I can help.
Does your Outlook sync to an Exchange server, or do you just use it as an email client for POP3 or IMAP?
Has your wife ever used Outlook with here own email account? It sounds like the answer is no, so how does she now access her email?
What you need to do is log on as your wife, then create a new Outlook account using Outlook under her Windows ID. In Outlook go to Menu/Options/Email Accounts and choose to set up a new account.
