    How can I sync my pc contacts with my ipad and iphone?

    Do you normally sync via iTunes and your computer? If so, there's an option in iTunes - that you see as you plug each device in - to sync contacts. If you don't normally sync via iTunes you can download and use the iCloud control panel and use that to sync your contacts.

    Is it possible to sync an iPod Touch with a mac and a pc?

    You can only sync an iPod touch to one computer for music, videos, movies and apps. You could, however, sync to the Mac for media content and the Windows system for contacts.

  • HT204053 how to I sync my email message with Cox so all of my messages appear on my MAC, my Iphone and my IPAD? If I turn my MAC off I don't receive my emails until aftet I turn it back on? THX

    How do I sync my IMAC, IPAD and IPHONE for messages. I use cox as my carrier. If I turn my IMAC off and then come back later - turn it on - I don't receive any messages from COX - they are on my phone and Ipad but not on my IMAC?
    Thank you -Jaq

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

  • How could I sync an Android device with a Mac mini?

    There does not seem to be any obvious way to sync contacts, or, indeed, much of anything. 'Accounts & Sync', in 'Settings' on the device doesn't acknolwdge that the Mac exists by direct USB connection, Bluetooth, or 802.11 wireless. The device doesn't show in the Finder when connected by USB or 802.11 wireless. (It does _charge_ when connected by USB, and it does show a network connection via 802.11 and its IP shows up on the network, it just won't connect to sync anything.) It's a T-Mobile device; T-Mobile doesn't seem to have any tools to make the connection, or at least I can't find any, and there aren't any apps in the App Store which seem able to do this, or again I can't find any. It's trivial to connect an iOS device; surely _someone_ has a way to connect an Android. Surely?

  • How do I sync my address book in my Mac to iPhone instead of my old blackberry

    I stopped using the Backup Assistant over a year ago because it wouldn't backup the email addresses onto my blackberry even though it showed in Backup Assistant.
    Now I got a new iPhone 4S and I want to use my Address Book in my Mac to the iPhone. How do I sync it to my Address Book?
    How does that differ in syncing with iTunes?
    I already have iCloud.
    Should I sync it to iCloud or my Mac Address Book (which really is already synced with iCloud, I think)?
    I'm afraid to activate my iPhone until I have these questions answered.
    Can someone help me?

    I don't have a Mac but on my windows if I go into my phone info on iTunes when plugged in I go to contacts and there are choices to choose from like gmail and windows then sync.  I assume when it's done on a max there is the same option on iTunes. If you go to iCloud.com and sign in you can check to see if your contacts are there. If you activate your phone it won't ruin what you have. It will ask you if you want to back up to what you have if there is anything. If you don't back up you can even if you say start fresh. I would go to an apple store if those things don't check out.

  • Syncing Google Gmail Contacts with Address Book and iPhone Contacts

    Can anyone recommend a good way to sync Google Gmail Contacts with the Address Book on the Mac and with Contacts on the iPhone?
    I tried using ABGMerge, but could not get it to work so and am looking for other options. Thanks.

    The Plaxo 3 non-pubic beta application currently supports only Mozilla and FireFox 1.5 and Internet Explorer 6. Safari support, and support for updated OS X thrid-party browsers, has not yet been released. To say that there are some anomalies and visual artifacts with Safari 2, would be an understatement. But, then, I often find this to be the case with beta—particularly, pre-public beta, software.
    The current release—build 356—supports these 'sync points:'
    • Mac OS X through a System Preferences pane
    • AOL and AIM
    • LinkedIn
    • mobile access
    • MSN and WIndows Live
    • Outlook
    • Outlook Express
    • Windows Mail
    • Yahoo
    It does not yet support Google. Or, not yet reliably or completely. The little 'hippo' that pops up periodically in the beta says, "Google Calendar Sync has been temporarily disabled. We are working diligently to resolve the problem. Sorry for the inconvenience."
    The verdict at the moment: contact synchronization performs as it always has with Plaxo. Calendar synchronization is clearly not yet ready for prime-time, even to the Plaxo 3 web interface itself.

  • IMessages in mountain lion not syncing with both mac and iPhone. Why?

    I either get someones imessage on my iphone or my mac, but not the same message on both. Anyone know why? I thought iMessage was supposed to "pick off where you left off... on all devices."

    I see now. OK, I do think I messed up the settings a bit. I have a @mac.com and a @me.com address with the same name. My Apple ID uses my @mac.com address, but I set up the Messages app on 10.8 to use my @me.com.
    I tried switching over to @me a while back because I wanted to reserve the Messages for close friends and family only. Now I see there is no way to turn off the "reached at" address for my main Apple ID @mac.com account. I'd prefer to use ONLY the @me (which is not my Apple ID), but Im guessing this is not possible.

  • How do I get sent webmail to synch across Mac and iPhone?

    Hello,
    If I compose a message on my iMac, it will not appear in the webmail's sent mailbox on my iphone.  The reverse is true too: if I compose a message on my iPhone, it will not appear in my iMac's webmail sent mailbox.
    I have successfully set up all my webmail accounts on my iMac's Mail as IMAP.  I can see sent messages I compose on my iMac in the sent mail folder (I configured the sent mail folder by going to Mailboxes and selecting "Use this Mailbox As" => Sent).   I did the same thing for my iphone and can easily find sent webmail messages I composed on my iphone too.  On both my iPhone and iMac, I have opted to use Mail's Sent Mail folder and not the webmail's sent folders.  I have checked, and all sent messages are displayed in Mail's Sent Mailbox option.  This is not a gmail account, it is a webmail service provided by my hosting company, Inmotion Hosting.  The only issue is that sent mail does not seem to be synching across device.  Any suggestions?
    Thank you.

    Hello Arthur. I am sorry  in the I probably wasn't too clear. Actually no, the MBP was not restored. These mailboxes, or accounts, were added. I was to start using my own site rather than yahoo, gmail etc. So I made up several accounts as I can have unlimited mailboxes on my site. I decided to have boxes that classified who the mail is coming from so when a family member writed to me they use an address [email protected] When a friend writed the are told my email address is [email protected] When my doctor or health insurance need to communicate with me the write to [email protected]..and on.
    So I added 10 POP accounts with names following the convention I just outlined. I am trying to see if there is a way that they will automatically appear on my othr devices without having to create the same 10 mailboxes/accounts on myu iPad and iPhone. As I said, I don't remember have to create the old mailboxes on all three devises....just on the MBP.
    I hope this makes it clearer.
    Thanks.

  • How can I sync Exchange/GroupWise calendar with Mountain Lion and iOS 6.1?

    On my iPhone I have defined the GroupWise server and I'm receiving every calendar events but it doesn't sync to my computer.
    Any idea why and how to fix it?

    Can't I just set up Exchange as one of my calendars in ical?
    Only if you're running Snow Leopard and your employer will allow access (different than iPhone/mobile device access, so most likely not), but not needed - keep reading.
    Is it really true that I have to choose between syncing Exchange with work server OR syncing iCal with personal Macbook?
    No. It was true, but with the v3.0 software that changed - you can now sync your Exchange contacts and calendar over the air, and your Address Book and iCal via iTunes over the docking cable.
    What is the best work around for this?
    None needed. When you set up the exchange account, and choose to turn on syncing of contacts and calendars, you will be prompted to remove all other data, or keep it on the iPhone. Choose the keep option. Note that in that case, your personal data will not be uploaded to the Exchange server - the iPhone keeps them separate (although you can choose to view them in a merged fashion).
    I have this set up on my phone (Exchange calendar along side personal and other calendars from iCal). Same for contacts. Works great.
