How do i sync my notes from my mac to iCloud?

Hi there,
I've been trying to sync my notes between my iphone, ipad and macbook. I'm able to sync them between my ipad, iphone and icloud, but I can't do it from my macbook. That's really what the whole point of this exercise is - there are a lot of notes that I want to transfer from my mac to my ipad, but it's not working.
On my mac I'm currently using mountain lion OSX 10.8.5. I've tried checking and unchecking notes in my mac system preferences in both icloud and gmail, to no avail...... Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

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

How do I sync my note from my notepad to iCloud and my other devices

How do I sync my note from my notepad to iCloud and my other devices

This was working but either iOS 6 or OSX 10.8.2
has seemed to have hosed things. Calendars and
Address Book seem to work fine. Notes are not
being distributed from my iPhone to my Macs.
Tried openning and closing Notes on my Macs multiple
times with no results. Waited for nearly 20 minutes with
no update to Notes on my Mac.
As a quick check, stuck a bogus appointment in Calendar
on my iPhone and a bogus addition to my Address Book
and they were pushed almost immediately to my Mac.
Update:
Logged into icloud.com account and found that Notes
has not pushed data to iCloud. So, seems like iOS 6
problem or an iCloud problem.

How can I sync my notes from iPhone 3GS to MacBook Pro?

How can I sync my Notes from the iPhone 3GS running IOS 6.0.1 to my MacBook Pro running OSX 10.8.2?

The most straightforward way (assuming your iPhone 3GS is running iOS 6, which it should be) is to use iCloud to house your contacts.
Then it would be trivial to have your contacts synced and maintained between your MacBook Pro and your iPhone.
P.S.: Sorry, I said contacts but meant notes. iCloud would work for both.

How to transfer notes from my mac to icloud?

how to transfer notes from my mac to icloud?

Go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign into your account and check Notes. If you've already done this, open the Notes app and check to see what account(s) your notes belong to (on the left sidebar). If they don't belong to the iCloud account, drag and drop them to the iCloud account to add them to iCloud.

How do I upload pages docs from my mac to iCloud?

How do I upload pages documents from my mac to iCloud? Is it something I have to turn on through Pages or do I drag and drop them in the cloud? When I try to drag and drop them in the cloud, they instantaneously get downloaded to my computer. iCloud is turned on in my preferences and I have an iCloud account.

You put them in your Dropbox folder and then open them from your Dropbox app on iOS into your iOS iWork apps. That's puts them into iCloud, including the icloud.com webpage.
That certainly is not the official solution but the official Apple is silent on how to achieve this.

HT204150 I currently have 14,181 contacts that are on my computer, which an apple tech was nice enough to show me how to transfer all my contacts from my mac 2 "iCloud " account all though when ever I log into my "iCloud" account it still only shows 13,0

I currently have 14,181 contacts that are on my computer, which an apple tech was nice enough to show me how to transfer all my contacts from my mac 2 "iCloud " account all though when ever I log into my "iCloud" account from a different web browser it still only shows 13,032. Meanwhile on my mac book pro, the "icloud" contact is still spinning like its trying to update the rest of the missing contacts. I have let the computer run for 2 days straight and still no progress. Is there a limit to how many contacts I store on "iCloud" I have upgraded to the extra 25 gigs per year. If anyone has any advice I would greatly appreciate it, because its also slowing down my mac book pro significantly causing it hard to do any other task on my computer....Any advice or help would be again greatly appreciated.

On the surface, it doesn't sound like you're reaching a limit in the number of contacts you can have.
I would first create a contacts archive (file >> export) for a backup. Then, go to system preferences >> icloud and uncheck contacts. Reboot. Return to those preferences and recheck contacts.
Also, review http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4489 just in case you have some contact cards that are reaching a different limitation.

HT201269 How can I sync my notes from my iPad to my iPod Touch?

I just bought the iPod Touch 5th Generation. I want to sync my Notes from my iPad to my iPod Touch. I cannot figure out how to do it.

See:
iOS: Transferring information from your current iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a new device
That get all info transferred (except for iPad apps not compatible with the iPod)
For Note only, just use the same Apple ID for Settings>iCloud make sure that Notes is turned on in Settings>iCloud.

HT4191 how can i sync my notes from my iphone to my imac using the usb cord?

Help,
I thought macs were suppose to be easy to use. I just bought this imac and I want to get my notes from my iphone to the computer but I can't figure it out. I don't want to use the icloud. I simply want my notes to transfer from my iphone to the computer.

When connected to iTunes on the computer, select the iPhone in the device pane. Go to the Info page for the phone in iTunes and scroll down to the Other section. There you will see the option to check to sync notes, and a selection for what program to sync them with. You will only see a selection if you have something to sync them with on your computer.

How do you sync your notes from your iPod touch or iPad?

I want to make sure my notes are backed up on my Mac. Is there an option for this in ITunes or is there an app you have to download?

I have a 3GS IPhone and have not been able to find Cloud on it anywhere (I was instructed to go to Settings, General, etc). I have also been told I should download update from I Tunes and have not been successful doing that either. I know my I Pad has the Cloud and I am wanting to sync the calendar from the phone to the pad. Any suggestions?

How to get calendars and notes from my iPhone into iCloud?

Hello all,
yesterday I got a new MacBook Pro Retina at work. This upgrade me to OSX 10.8 from 10.6, so I planned to use iCloud to sync my iPhone 5 and my Mac this way. So far I synced the devices manually via iTunes.
However, so far I only got Contacts to sync with iCloud correctly. Calendars and notes just don't do it, although their sync is turned on on the iPhone as well as on the Mac.
All my attempts to get it to work obviously destroyed the possibility to sync calendars via iTunes - after a sync there is just nothing showing up in Calendar. This is really bad as now I can only access my calendars via the iPhone.
Since my iPhone now contains the most recent calendar and note data the question is even more simple: how can I get these data from my iPhone into iClous so they will also sync with my Mac (and from then on on all devices)?
It doesn't work by just turning calendar sync on on the iPhone. When I do this, I now see two calendar groups "From my Mac" and "From iCloud". Great, but what I want is to replace "From iCloud" with "From my Mac".
I have already reset iCloud, but this didn't help either.
I'm close to desperation, so any hints are very much appreciated!
Thanks and best wishes,
Thomas.

Solved - it was a general sync problem. Today I was not even able anymore to sync my calendars via iTunes. Problem and solution see https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5505069.
Best,
Thomas.

How do I sync my ipod from one mac to a new one?

I didn't own a Mac computer so when I recieved my iPod I synced it to my sister's computer. Now that I own my own Mac how do I sync my iPod to my computer? I got this iPod in 2008.

Your iPod is designed to sync with only one iTunes library at a time. It will recognize the iTunes library on the Mac as a new library. If you sync the iPod with this new library, all content will be erased from the iPod and replaced with what is in the new library. So what you will want to do is copy everything from the iPod to your new iTunes library on your Mac first.
See this excellent user tip from another forum member turingtest2 outlining the different methods and software available to help you copy content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

HT1296 How do I sync iBook notes from iPad

I have edited an iBook on my iPad, many notes and corrections... how do I transfer the edited version back to my computer so that I can send it back to the publisher??

Ah, so just the notes that have to do with a calendar item. What about the To Do's list in calendar? Or do I have to give them a date to have them show up in iphone? What if it's an item I don't want to attach a date. Just a To Do item?
What about the notes that are in my Mail application? Can I sync those to anywhere? I haven't been syncing mail since it wasn't necessary. But the notes in the reminder section of mail?

How do I sync email accounts from my mac to my iPhone?

I used to be able to sync my email accounds to my phone using iTunes. I dont see that option anymore?

With the iPod connected to your computer, go to the Summary pane under devices (your iPod) and check the appropriate boxes. From the Users Guide:'
Calendars
Â
You can sync calendars from applications such as iCal on a Mac, or from Microsoft
Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 on a PC. (On a Mac, you can sync calendars with multiple
applications. On a PC, you can sync calendars with only one application at a time.)
