How can I get iCal alarm to sync with my iPhone 4?

My iCal alarm won't sync with my iPhone 4 if I add the event using iCal on my Mac. I find that if I set an alarm on iCal, I only get an alert on my computer. If I add an event on my iPhone, I get a pop up alarm on both the phone and the computer. I want to be able to add an event on my computer and get an alert on both devices. Is this option even possible?

Turn up the alert volume all the way in Sounds.   Lock it so you can't change it with the buttons.

  • I upgraded to a 4G today from a 3G... how can I get my phone to sync with Itunes now

    I purchased a new phone today... how can I get my 4G to sync with my Itunes so my music and apps will transfer onto it.  Do I restore my back-up or set-up as a new phone (these are the two choices I am given)?

  • HT1430 I changed the password on my gmail account and now I can't get the account to sync with my iPhone

    I changed the password on my gmail account and I can't get the account to sync with my iPhone.  What can I do?

    Did you add the new password to your mail account in your phone?

  • A few months ago when I switched over to icloud from mobile me I set up my icloud with a new email address and now I can't get my calendars to sync with my iphone.  I can't cancel either account-the icloud or mobile me.

    Please help!  I have two separate email addresses -my old mobile me and the new icloud and now nothing is syncing with my iphone.  I'm not sure how to get everything back to syncing the way it was before I changed everything over to icloud. 

    If you really did migrate from MobileMe to iCloud, you would have the same address as before.
    It sounds as though you didn't actually migrate from MobileMe to iCloud, you just started up a brand new iCloud account.
    You won't be able to access MobileMe now. If you failed to move everything over to iCloud properly, then all the data and the account has been deleted as Apple said it would at the end of July.
    To get everything to sync, you need to make sure all your devices and computers are logged into the same iCloud account. Possibly what has happened is some are still using the old (now deleted) MobileMe account and some are using the new iCloud account.

  • How can I get my iPod to sync with my Mac (running OS X 10.5.8) if I don't want to upgrade my Mac to OS X 10.6.8?

    I just tried to sync my iPod and got the message that I have to update iTunes, but my Mac is running OS X 10.5.8. I wouldn't have updated the OS on my iPod if I had known this would be a problem. Any suggestions on how I can get my devices to sync again without updating my Mac OS?

  • I just decommissioned my windows pc for a mac power book.  How can I get my ipad to sync with the new computer without erasing all the apps and data on the ipad?

    I just decomissioned my windows pc in favor of a new (to me) MacBook Pro.  When I attempt to sync my iPad I get a warning that I will erase all content on the ipad in order to sync with the new computer.  How do avoid erasing all the data on the iPad, and get the iPad and the new Mac/iTunes to be friends?

    Best option is to use Windows Migration Assistant as Ralph noted.
    Here's a better (updated) link to Windows Migration Assistant for Lion -> http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4796
    Or if you only want iTunes (Migration Assistant let's you choose) copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder from your PC to /Music/ on the Mac.
    FYI: A MacBook is not a PowerBook. PowerBooks were discontinued in 2005.

  • How can i get my music to sync to my iPhone?  all my music is saving into the cloud

    i upgraded to iOS 8 on an Iphone 5s (from a 4s) and an iPad air and almost all of my music is now stored in the cloud, not on the device.   All iCloud settings are turned off.  I have one more 5s to upgrade (again, from a 4s).  How can i upgrade and keep all my music on the phone, not in the cloud.     I lost over 500 songs when I upgraded the iPad air.    

    I have a similar problem with my iPhone 5. I sync my music but I cannot find them in the Music app, although I can see for storage usage that they have been loaded to the iPhone. I have tryed different sync options, but nothing works. Cannot hear my musics on my iPhone anymore :-(

  • How can I get Outlook calendar to sync with iPhone and iPad?

    I think I have tried evert known setting but syncing seems very selective.  I have googled for solutions, too.
    Currently, I load an even into my Outlook calendar (and have the right boxes checked in iTunes) but I am damned if the even will transpose to either my iPhone or my iPad! My Outlook also displays the iCloud calendar too.
    Is there a definitive instruction that is, effectively, a child's guide to setting up Outlook to transpose events to the Apple devices AND vice-versa?
    In my iPhone and iPad, I have the iCloud sync box ticked.  In my phone calendars I have both PC and iCloud ticked.  Events show in my Outlook and Outlook iCloud but not in the &^&^*&^(*&(*)&(* iPhone or iPad.  I have had some close shaves over missing events and want to have this solved.
    Pleeeeease?
    Ron

    An interesting additional symtom is that items loaded in the PC (which immedialely duplicate to the iCloud calendar on eht PC - no worries, there) do not transpose the devices (as above) but, loading an item into the phone, it goes to the PC (which is fine, too).  But not to the iPad.  Interestingly, there fewer calendar display options on the iPad than on the phone.
    I talked to Apple a few months ago (after ISO 5) - mainly about the 6000 plus addresses that suddenly appeared in my Contacts - and his advice was do all contact and calendar actions on the PC.  "icloud is still faulty"
    So there we are!   I must have items and reminders in my PC - it is my main work station - and need them on my devices to avoid conflicts when away from my office.
