How do i get my iphone 6 contacts to replace contacts in macbook pro?

I made a whole bunch of changes to my contacts, on my iphone, and when I went to sync it to my laptop, the contacts from my laptop went onto my iphone! So now I'm back to square one! Is there anyway to set it so that my iphone overrides the macbook when syncing thru itunes? I use itunes to sync my iphone 6 to my macbook pro laptop and I have already disabled contacts in icloud so that it does not interfere with itunes sync. I've looked and cannot find any box to tick in order to do this, does anyone have any ides? Thanks in advance.

PC, I also rebooted the wireless.

  • How do I get my iPhone iMessages to sync with my macbook pro iMessages?

    I don't get imessages on my macbook pro unless I start the conversation first. How can I get my iMessages to sync together?

    I don't have the option to enable messages for phone numbers or emails in my iMessages Preferences. I have a 3 year old MacBook Pro running OS 10.9.3, with all updates offered.  So I can't sync my messages from my iPhone to my Mac and vice versa.

  • How do I get my iPhone apps to run on my Macbook Pro?

    I want to use on app to edit photos on my macbook. Having a giftcard, I decided to purchase this app on my macbook, (even though i had already had this app on my iPhone). I pressed 'Buy App' and it did take money out of my giftcard balance, but it didnt say that I had purchased the app. But I'm thinking, I must have, because it took the right ammount of money out of my account! But it didnt download, or appear in my downloads. So, then, I decided to sync my apps from my iPhone to my Macbook, and it did, so I can see the apps in my iTunes...but i cant use them on my Mac. Any ideas on what i should do? Ive tried everything I can think of doing. Thanks!

    If you purchasd an App from within iTunes, it is designed for an iDevice, not a Mac. Mac compatible Apps are available from the Mac App Store.

  • How do I get Elements to occupy full screen on my macbook pro? - the docking station remains visible and I don't want to have the dock in hide mode?

    How do I get Elements to occupy full screen on my macbook pro? - the docking station remains visible and I don't want to have the dock in hide mode?

    Unfortunately, there is no answer to this problem via this link. It may be that this is simply how the software actually works. It is a design fault in Adobe Photoshop Elements. It is possible to temporarily hide the dock within 'system preferences'. Oh well. Someone may know better.... I hope!

  • How can i get in work my Hp scaner with my macbook pro?

    how can i get in use my Hp scaner with my macbook pro?

    You have the display set in Extended Desktop mode with the MacBook as the main screen. The Menu Bar and Dock will be on the MacBook display and your background screen on the TV but you can move the cursor onto the TV screen.
    In System Preferences>Display on the MacBook screen there should be an Arrangement tab when you have the MacBook hooked up to the TV and both screens working. When you click the Arrangement tab do you see two monitors side by side? One of them will have a Menu Bar at the top. Just click on the Menu Bar and drag it to the second monitor. That will make the second monitor your main screen.
    The TV will now have the Dock and Menu Bar and windows will open on it. But you can move the cursor to the MacBook screen and move windows from the TV over to the MacBook screen.
    You can now use your MacBook in Clamshell Mode with a wired or Bluetooth keyboard and mouse.  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3131 When you disconnect from the TV your Menu Bar will automatically change back to the MacBook.
    Or if you want to work on the MacBook screen while showing it on a TV you can check the Mirror Display box on the lower left hand side of the Arrangement tab under the two monitors box. That will give you the same screen at the same resolution on both the MacBook and the external monitor.

    How do I get the latest version of safari on my macbook pro?

    Upgrading to Yosemite
    You can upgrade to Yosemite from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Yosemite can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
    Upgrading to Yosemite
    To upgrade to Yosemite you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Yosemite from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Yosemite is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.

          Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Yosemite
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later

  • TS4147 How do I get iCloud & iPhone to use the contacts in address book on desktop?

    Hey jel177!
    It seems like you may need to turn off your iTunes in the Cloud features and download or sync the songs manually to your phone. Here is a link that can help you adjust those settings:

  • How do I sync my iPhone calendar entries back into my MacBook Pro Calendar?

    I can't get appointments scheduled via Siri to update or sync bact to my MacBook Pro.  I have iCloud, and I have iTunes synced, but the appointments scheduled in iPhone's Calendar do not appear in the MacBook Calendar.

    If you are syncing your calendar with iCloud on both your phone and your MBP, check Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar (in the Calendars section) to be sure you have selected your iCloud calendar as your default.  Then try adding a new event on your iPhone calendar and see if it syncs to your MBP now.

  • How do you get an audio CD to play on a MacBook Pro?

    I've actually looked around the site and see others have had the same problem with their mac, unfortunately I don't have the technical expertise or the time to get stuck into the long winded and confusing steps required to sort this problem. There is no option for me to email an Apple worker and I didn't particularly want to post this here, but it seems it's either this or wait two days to have Apple call me... Not what I want at all.
    I have a Macbook Pro 13" late 2011, running OSX 10.7.2, which is two months old and in perfect condition. I upgraded from a Toshiba Satellite which cost me under £300 in 2008 and was excellent when it came to playing CDs... Funnily enough.
    After paying £999 on an admittedly fantastic laptop I am rather appalled that such an expensive piece of kit would be incapable of playing audio CDs when iTunes seems to be one of the largest selling points of the Macintosh. I am wondering if this fault is intentional as it may force iTunes users to resort to the iTunes store rather than importing CDs?
    I'm not expecting a solution to be posted on this thread, at least not one which I am capable of utilising, this is merely an attempt at venting my frustration over the issue seeing as I can't find an option to email Apple directly.
    However if anyone reads this and knows of a solution that doesn't involve buying any extra kit (£999 seems to be enough for something to play CDs) or require in depth know-how  then that would be greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks.

    Hi, and thanks for getting back to me.
    My settings are to open iTunes when an audio CD is inserted and in iTunes my settings are to import it.
    With all due respect I'm unwilling to entertain the idea that my drive is faulty, it's only been used a couple of times (plays DVDs perfectly, and I've doubled checked that tonight after the computer failed to recognise audio CDs) and the laptop itself so far has been thoroughly well looked after.
    I've looked around the net and there seem to be plenty of people with the same problem as me, it seems unlikely that their machines were all shipped with faulty drives.
    From what I understand it seems to be that audio CDs that have the Compact Disc Digital Audio logo printed on the box have no problem playing on a Mac but CDs without that logo will not show up in iTunes or Finder. But going through my collection of CDs none of them seem to have the logo printed on them so perhaps that's an old standard? In which case this issue is a major shortfall of the Macintosh. However my opinion is far from expert and in any case I'm just speculating. The whole issue is confusing and frustrating and I do thank you very much for taking the time to post your help.
    Best regards

  • How do I get Microsoft office from my iMac to my Macbook Pro

    I have an older paid for version of Microsoft Office. I believe it is 2011? Anyhow, I got a New/used fully updated Macbook Pro and I used my Time Capsule to transfer all my data from my iMac to my laptop, but much of the music is absent, as well as my purchased apps. How do I get these over? I do not have an optical drive so it is not as easy as reinstalling.

    If it's Office 2011 you can download a Trial at www.mactopia.com. You can then use your license key to make it a fully functional version.
    You can also download EasyFind 4.9 and use it to locate all the relevant Microsoft and office files located elsewhere on your old drive so you can transfer them to your new one.

  • How do I get the absolute best performance out of my MacBook Pro while playing Minecraft/Java Based Games?

    I pretty much want to know how to boost my laptop performance for the lowest price. Is there much to do after upgrading to 8 gigs of RAM and a Samsung SSD? Also is there anyway to upgrade a MacBook Pro early 2011 2.0 GHz i7 Graphics card?

    you run into the limits of XP and built in graphics.
    I would hope that you found in all these years how to install and get new moddified gpu drivers.
    XP is limited and is 32-bit where each app gets 2GB address space also.
    Windows 7 64-bit (or 8 even free for now to test out) otherwise wait to buy a new Mac.

  • How do i Get music from my iPad to a new MacBook Pro

    I have a lot of music on my iPad and want to get it onto my new MacBook Pro. It seems to want to sync the MacBook to the iPad which will wipe out all my music since the MacBook has nothing on it. How do I sync from iPad to MacBook?

    You need to make the new Mac iTunes library your syncing library. iTunes on the Mac sees your iPad as a new device because you have never synced with this computer before. You can make the Mac your syncing computer by following the instructions in this user tip. You will be able to transfer the purchased music on the iPad into iTunes when you follow this procedure.
