How do I sync Contacts on my Mac with my iPhone and iPads?

  • HT4967 I can sync data from my Mac to my iPhone and iPad and from my iPhone to the Mac and iPad, but cannot sync data from the iPad to either device. My iPad is configured to Push. Is there another setting than I'm forgetting?

    I can update data from my Mac to my iPhone and iPad, and from my iPhone to my Mac and iPad, but cannot get data to update from my iPad to either my Mac or my iPhone.

    If new calendar events entered on your iPad do not appear on icloud.com, go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar on your iPad and be sure you have selected an iCloud calendar as your default and not something else like On My iPhone, a Gmail or Yahoo calendar, etc.  If you haven't, make this change, then add a new event and see if it appears on your calendar on icloud.com now.
    If your settings are correct and new events still aren't appearing on icloud.com, add any missing calendar events from your iPad to your calendar on icloud.com.  Once the calendar on icloud.com is up to date with your iPad, go to Settings>iCloud, turn Calendars to Off, choose Delete from My iPad when prompted (they will still be in iCloud), then after a 15 seconds or so, turn Calendars back to On.  Then add a new event on your iPad and see if it appears on your calendar on icloud.com now, and on your other devices.

  • How do I sync contacts on my Mac to my iPhone 4S?

    I have an app called MyContactsKeeper that backs up an iPhone's contacts into a designated Dropbox account. 
    I now have an iPhone 4S that I'm trying to pull these stored contacts onto, but not all of them are transferring even though the files (filetype .vcf) are still in the Dropbox account. 
    I now want to try to manually add these contacts to my 4S but don't know how.  Can I download these .vcf files and add them to Address Book and from there sync Address Book with my 4S?  Is there another way to get these contacts from my Dropbox onto my 4S?

    Did you back up your iTunes library from your computer and restore it after reloading? Does your music appear in iTunes on the computer? If so, you can just re-sync it. Media on the phone will be wiped since you'll be setting it up to sync with a new iTunes library.
    If you don't have a copy of your iTunes library. you're hosed. The iPhone is not a backup device. Sync is one way with the exception of music purchased on the phone.

    Then it should work just the same as on your old computer.

  • How do i change the icloud account associated with my iphone and ipad when i forgot the password and no longer have access to the email account?

    I have an iPhone 5c and an ipad 3.  using the latest version of iOS.  I can't delete the old iCloud account on the devices without putting in a password but I don't have it, nor a way to change it via email since the email acct is an old one.

    If the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your devices, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • How can I get the "Purchased" playlist back on my iPhone and iPad?

    I sync my entire music library with my iPhone and iPad.  In the Music app, I used to have the playlists:
    Purchased
    Purchased on Matt Erickson's iPhone
    Pruchased on Matt Erickson's iPad
    plus all my other playlists...
    Now on my iPhone, I only have Purchased on iPhone
    Now on my iPad, I only have Purchased on iPad
    How do I get all three of these playlists back on all devices?
    Thanks!

    The Airplay icon only appears if there's an Airplay enabled device that the iPhone or iPad  can find in the same network, or connected via bluetooth.
    How are you attempting to use Airplay?

  • How do I sync iCal on my mac with OS 8 devices

    How do I sync iCal on my mac with OS 8 devices

    Hi jgiolma,
    Since you do not mention what version of the Mac operating system you are running on your MacBook Pro it is a little hard to answer your question. For computers running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 or later one way to sync your calendars would be to use iCloud. See this article for minimum system requirements for iCloud -
    System requirements for iCloud
    Information on using iCloud for your calendars can be found here -
    iCloud: Calendar overview and
    iCloud: Using iCloud Calendars with Calendar and iCal
    More general information about iCloud is available here -
    Apple - iCloud - Everything you love, everywhere you go.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

    You can disable the Adobe Reader plugin in Firefox (Tools > Add-ons > Plugins) and use the external Adobe Reader application or Preview application instead.

    You don't sync the MM calendar anymore, you subscribe to it in iCal,
    iCal>Preferences>Accounts, enter the details here.
    MM should be the default calendar on all clients.
