How do I get my MacBook Pro, iPhone and iPad all in sync with each other?

Just bought an iPad mini. What is best way to sync my iPhone 5, MacBook Pro, and iPad mini?

You use iTunes on the MacBook Pro to store backups of apps and documents. Use iPhoto on the MacBook Pro to organize and store photos. Then sync each device with the MacBook Pro by connecting the device to the MacBook Pro and running iTunes.

The app store is not working or loading on my Macbook Pro, iphone and ipad

The app store is not working or loading on my Macbook Pro, iphone and ipad
Today When I tried to open the app store on my ipad I found out that's the store is not working,,, It's giving me the loading screen like for ever without any error message. So I tried my Macbook and my iphone and it was the same,,,, I thought it was from the connection so I tried several different connections and It was the same.
Any Idea what is going on with the app store ?

The App Store app on your iPhone in your iPad is a different App Store than the app store app on your Mac. You use the same account for both app stores. So I would guess that the real issue is perhaps something to do with your Home Network. You might try rebooting your modem/router. Also, turn off any antiviral software, firewalls or apps such as Little Snitch.

Just bought a Mac but music on my MacBook Pro, iPhone and iPad which all sync together is not coming up on the new Mac - help please

ust bought a Mac but music on my MacBook Pro, iPhone and iPad which all sync together is not coming up on the new Mac. I think I have turned on iCloud but still nothing.

Keeping mail accounts synchronized between MacBook Pro, iPhone, and iPad

I want to keep my email accounts synchronized between three devices (MacBook Pro, iPhone, and new iPad).
I use several Email accounts (personal use, business use, one for Internet purchases and newsletters, etc.)
My Email accounts include: MobileMe, Gmail, and two that are hosted by my telecommunications provider and these are POP3-based Email accounts.
I use Apple Mail as my primary Email program, and Gmail for the personal accounts. In Apple Mail, I make use of Folders to sort incoming messages.
I need recommendations on how best (and simplest) to keep everything synchronized between and among the three devices mentioned above. In addition, I can be more productive if I have the ability to use Folders/Labels for Email filing regardless of which device I am using.
I’m considering using Gmail as my primary Email program. It synchronizes easily with all three devices, and Gmail’s Folders/Labels do appear on the iPhone and the iPad. If I choose this route, I will need to find an effective way to back up Gmail, especially for my business-related messages.
I’d welcome any advice/recommendations from any of you. Thanks.

in pop there is a setting to leave the mail on the server ... I would have one main device that i used for managing .. ie. deleting email, and use the others for just reading. obviously the macbook would be the managing device ... but i have to say a laptop is not a great email manager because of the limited storage. alternatively you can start to use imap where all the email stays and is managed on the server, then your mobile-device-only lifestyle will work better and you do not have to worry about backups if your ISP takes care of that.
what i do at home is to have an iMac with a huge disk and store my stuff in the home directory, and then I can use other devices, that don't necessarily have to be apple, to read mail in the inbox. I just manage and archive on the iMac, or whatever would be the biggest machine. That way I also use time machine to keep backups in case I might lose something too.
your philosophy seems to be to stay mobile and light. i archive all my email forever ... at least anything I think is important or personal. just a different workflow i guess. in future i will move my mail folders to a readynas box with 12TB storage because of the size of multimedia is going to be getting bigger and bigger. Goggle's email already allows 20MB emails.

Syncing calendars between Macbook Pro, iPhone and iPad

Having trouble with this. The calendars were working fine but now they're not. I have three calendars - one on iCloud that I use for personal stuff, the others on two exchange accounts that I use for work emails etc.
The Macbook Pro is brand new (yesterday) but copied all setting from previous computer which is also having problems as of this week so it's not the new gadget that's the problem. The iPhone and iPad have always synced fine until this week.
Now if I put an appointment into calendar on one device, it sometimes shows up on one or both of the other devices - but not always. This is scary as I am getting double booked and forgetting to go to things so I am desperate! I considered deleting the accounts and reinstalling them but they might lose the data so this seems very risky. Any advice gratefully received - thanks in advance...

My macbook pro, iphone, and ipad can not connect to the internet simultaneously. However my room mates computers that are not apple products are connected to the internet.

Occasionally my macbook, iphone, and ipad would not be connected to the internet at the same time. However, when they can connect, all three are connected at the same time. It is not my internet because my room mates computers are connected to the internet the whole time without any problems. When I can't connect, I can still see the network name on th wifi network search. However, when I click connect, the only message that pops up is can not join network.

How do I get my Macbook Pro 15" to run dual monitor setup with Dual Link DVI outputs

I own have two 27" 2560x1440 WQHD LED IPS Computer monitors and have been trying to get them to work with my macbook pro 15" w retina for over a month now. I have purchased multiple products and nothing has worked. The big problem is that the only input that the monitors have is a Dual Link DVI input. The closest that i have gotten to getting them to work was this morning when I bought 2 Mini Display Port to Dual Link DVI Adapters for $99 a peice. Below is a link
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB571Z/A/mini-displayport-to-dual-link-dvi-ada pter?afid=p219%7CGOUS&cid=AOS-US-KWG-PLA
Problem is that when I hook them up, I still only get a picture on one of the screens. Also, it requires you to plug into a mini Display port and USB port which takes up all of the space for me to run any othe peripherals. Though it has a built in USB port, when I plug my apple keybaord into it, I get an saying "USB Device Needs power, connect "keyboard Hub" to power or usb port on this mac"
I have looked everywhere for a docking station that would satisfy my needs, however, it does not exist. I use my macbook as my main office computer and take it home with me every night. I switched from the lenovo thinkpad to the macbook and have been satsified with my decision except for the fact that i cannot connect my monitors to it.
Please help!

Yes, that would work, however it would cost me $2000 for the monitors.

Does it have a discount if I buy a Macbook Pro, iPhone and iPad at once?

If I buy these three products (iPhone, iPad and Macbook Pro) at once, am I able to get a discount from Apple?

IPhone and iPad error when syncing with itunes

iTunes cannot sync my iPhone 4 or iPad air, iPhone produces unknown error (-50), and iPad produces unknown error (-54), cannot sync. This problem started in the past seven days. Neither device is Jailbroken, so I know that's not a cause, any help?

I was having this problem and there isn't a lot out there about it. But it seems to have gone away with iOS 7.1, which is nice.

I have a MacBook Pro, iPhone and Ipad. For over 4 months i've been receiving email on all three devices. Then all of a sudden my iphone and ipad can't download my email. Have i accidentally done something so only my MacBook Pro can download/receive email?

Please help!

You have 10.6 on that machine, I suggest you stick with it for performance, third party hardware and software reasons as long as possible.
Consider 10.8 (not 10.7) when it's released, because 10.7 and 10.8 will require a new investment in software and newer third party hardware as it requires newer drivers the old machines won't have. (forced upgrade because of software, really nice of them)

Do the events from your iPhone calendar appear on icloud.com? If not, go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar (in the Calendars section) and make sure you have selected an iCloud calendar as your default. If you haven't, make this change, then add a new event on your iPhone calendar and see if appears on icloud.com and your Mac now.
