How do I sync my contacts, etc to my macbook?

When I set up my macbook air it is using my daughter's info instead of mine.  How do I switch it?

There is a much better and cleaner way to share music and apps.  You each have your own Apple IDs with your own setups on iTunes.  You use your individual iTunes to sync your personal devices (iPhones, iPads) if you have them.  You copy those songs and apps you wish to share with the other person to their iTunes.  The other person owns them, so in iTunes on your computer, you go to Store > Authorize This Computer and enter that other person's Apple ID and password.  Then, if you have iPhone(s) and/or iPad(s), sync them and everything will be good!

    Ok.
    Open System Preferences, Apple Logo icon in the menu bar and then System Preferences or the Sys Pref iocon in the Dock and go to the Internet Accounts area and look at your iCloud account. It should list what is and isn't synced by a checkmark next to each item.
    Also in the Contacts app click on Contacts in the menu bar and select Preferences then accounts and make sure your iCloud account is listed. You can also do that from the Internet Accounts area in System Preferences.

    Sync your iPad with computer iTunes.
    Note: your contacts should be in computer Outlook (Windows) or Contacts (Mac) application.
    If you have iCloud configured in iPhone, do the same for iPad.
    Setttings > iCloud >
         Account: your Apple ID
         Contacts: ON
         Documents & Data: ON

  • How do you sync iCloud (contact, calendar, task) to outlook 2011 for Mac? and how do you make seemless sync between iCloud to Outlook 2011 to Blackberry device or an iPad?

    I have three device: Macbook Pro (OSX 10.7.5) for work; an iPad and a Blackberry for mobile. I used mail, iCal, and Address Book combine with mobileme (iCloud) to exchange data such as contact, calendar and task from my Mackbook Pro to my iPad but never to Blackberry. The problem is my boss was asking me to change to Outlook 2011 for Mac because some of the email that I sent from Mail did not appear in my client's Blackberry. So how do you sync iCloud (contact, calendar, task) to Outlook 2011 for Mac? and how do you make seemless sync between iCloud to Outlook 2011 to Blackberry device or an iPad?  
    Best regards,

    It's a good idea to backup your Mac Address Book application and iCal Calendars application from each application. This way you can go back and pull out items if you lose something. I do this everyday.

  • How do I sync individual contacts with Facebook?

    On iOs6, on the iPhone 5, how does one sync individual contacts with Facebook? I don't wish to use the sync all contacts feature, as it adds thousands of Facebook friends to my contact list. I simply wish to connect the contacts already in my address book.

    I realize this is really old, but on the off chance of you never having found a way, I figured I'd pop in with something actually useful unlike this Raz fella.
    I couldn't figure out a way to do it without connecting to facebook at all, but here is what I did:
    1. Connect to facebook.
    2. Update contacts.
    3. Click groups and uncheck facebook contacts.
    Now contacts which are only on the phone because of facebook will not show up, and yet the others will have been connected.
    If a specific person does not connect properly to facebook, add their FACEBOOK EMAIL (found in their about section) to the email section of contacts and again go to the facebook settings and click update contacts. This should connect that person.

    Not being a Mac user, I cannot be sure, but with Windows, you make a setting to sync iCloud and other Windows contacts. There is probably a setting you need to make on the Mac.

    How do I sync my contact in iPhone4S into gmail contacts?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.

    I was finally able to get PSE 11 to install by downloading the free trial. But first, I had to upgrade Adobe's Application Manager. I was then able to use the serial number contained in the confirmation email Adobe sent me from when I purchased it online.

    Hey dthompson2108, 
    Thanks for participating in the Apple Support Communities. 
    You can sync contacts between your iPhone and MacBook Pro using iCloud or iTunes.
    See this link for help with setting up iCloud on your computer and device(s):
    Apple - iCloud - Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices.
    Instead of turning on iCloud on your iPhone and Mac, you can sync using iTunes as explained in this article: 
    Sync your iPhone, iPad, and iPod with iTunes using USB - Apple Support
    All the best,

  • How do I sync my contacts from my iphone to microsoft outlook (laptop)

    How do I sync my contacts and  my calendar from my iphone to my new laptop. I used Microsoft Office. I used to be able to add items in my phone and they would automatically be added to my laptop. Thanks.

    Do you still have your old phone? What kind of phone was/is the old one? If your old phone is an Android and you still have it turn it on. Hook up to WiFi, Go to your contacts and change them to google Contacts. Then go into your new phone and change it to Google Contacts as well.
    Then when Google syncs all of your contacts back to your phone, kill the Verizon Cloud / Backup Assistant on your phone and back them up to the very simple and fast Google.  Backup Assistant is not worth the time and effort to get things half right and is probably one of the worst apps I have ever seen.
