how do i turn on sync services on my mac

Check all your screens and inside all your folders for the Contacts app. It has to be there somewhere as it cannot be deleted. If after searching you still can't find it, go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Reset Home Screen Layout. This will restore the home screen to its original configuration but may move other apps around to do so. (You may want to take some screenshots of your screens first so you can reconstruct them later.)

How do I turn off Sync Services Agent?

I am trying to redownload my Office: mac 2011 to my Mac Book Pro. When I put in the Office: Mac 2011 disc it keeps telling me to quit the following applications-- Sync Services Agent. I have tried to "force quit" this app. but it continues to run. I need some help on this. Thanks!

Hey everybody:
I have the solution to this problem.
I had installed Microsoft Office on my Mac at home recently, primarily to use Outlook on a day where I was working from home, and when I was done, I quit Outlook, but it was too late; the installation had left its residue. I got pop-up Windows which were related to Outlook telling me there were meetings, etc, so I wanted to find all running processes with "microsoft" somewhere in their path and to kill them off. These are the initial steps I took:
Tue 10:14:15 {jsl@marlin:[~]} pwd
/Users/jsl
Tue 10:14:27 {jsl@marlin:[~]} ps -ef | egrep -i 'microsoft|PPID' | egrep -v egrep
UID   PID PPID   C STIME   TTY           TIME CMD
501 6036   313   0 10:11AM ??         0:00.49 /Applications/Microsoft Office 2011/Office/Office365Service.app/Contents/MacOS/Office365Service
501 6038   313   0 10:11AM ??         0:00.65 /Applications/Microsoft Office 2011/Office/Microsoft Database Daemon.app/Contents/MacOS/Microsoft Database Daemon
501 6039   313   0 10:11AM ??         0:00.45 /Applications/Microsoft Office 2011/Office/SyncServicesAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/SyncServicesAgent
Tue 10:14:49 {jsl@marlin:[~]} kill 6036 6038 6039
As you can see, I tried to kill off the 3 Microsoft-related processes, but when I went to double-check that I had actually gotten rid of them, I saw that 2 of them had come back:
Tue 10:15:05 {jsl@marlin:[~]} ps -ef | egrep -i 'microsoft|PPID' | egrep -v egrep
UID   PID PPID   C STIME   TTY           TIME CMD
501 6104   313   0 10:15AM ??         0:00.38 /Applications/Microsoft Office 2011/Office/SyncServicesAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/SyncServicesAgent
501 6105   313   0 10:15AM ??         0:00.26 /Applications/Microsoft Office 2011/Office/Microsoft Database Daemon.app/Contents/MacOS/Microsoft Database Daemon
I kept trying to kill off various processes, but eventually I figured out that if I killed off every process except for the "SyncServicesAgent", I could at least keep the number of Microsoft-related processes to a minimum. But the real question was how to kill off the SyncServicesAgent so that it would stay dead? I noticed that "kill -9" didn't work, because the prcoess was definitely dying, but something else was bringing it back to life, and that's what I needed to suss out.
Let me just cut to the end, so that you, too, can know what steps to take. You want to kill off all "microsoft" processes except for "SyncServicesAgent" using "kill" on the command-line (in Terminal), and then use "launchctl" for the last step, as below:
Tue 10:30:44 {jsl@marlin:[~]} ps -ef | egrep -i 'microsoft|PPID' | egrep -v egrep
UID   PID PPID   C STIME   TTY           TIME CMD
501 6104   313   0 10:15AM ??         0:00.69 /Applications/Microsoft Office 2011/Office/SyncServicesAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/SyncServicesAgent
501 6105   313   0 10:15AM ??         0:00.74 /Applications/Microsoft Office 2011/Office/Microsoft Database Daemon.app/Contents/MacOS/Microsoft Database Daemon
501 6158   313   0 10:30AM ??         0:00.41 /Applications/Microsoft Office 2011/Office/Office365Service.app/Contents/MacOS/Office365Service
Tue 10:31:09 {jsl@marlin:[~]} kill 6105 6158
Tue 10:31:24 {jsl@marlin:[~]} ps -ef | egrep -i 'microsoft|PPID' | egrep -v egrep
UID   PID PPID   C STIME   TTY           TIME CMD
501 6104   313   0 10:15AM ??         0:00.69 /Applications/Microsoft Office 2011/Office/SyncServicesAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/SyncServicesAgent
Tue 10:31:26 {jsl@marlin:[~]} launchctl list | wc -l
244
Tue 10:44:25 {jsl@marlin:[~]} launchctl list | egrep -i microsoft
-          0          com.microsoft.SyncServicesAgent.74304
6104          -          com.microsoft.SyncServicesAgent
Tue 10:44:34 {jsl@marlin:[~]} launchctl remove com.microsoft.SyncServicesAgent
Tue 10:45:02 {jsl@marlin:[~]} ps -ef | egrep -i 'microsoft|PPID' | egrep -v egrep
UID   PID PPID   C STIME   TTY           TIME CMD
Tue 10:45:22 {jsl@marlin:[~]}
Just to be clear, that last step -- and the step which everyone here is looking for -- is pretty much just
"launchctl remove com.microsoft.SyncServicesAgent", and the problem is taken care of. Cheers!

Yes I already went to Settings > Privacy > Location Services, is not allowing me to turn it off.
And yes I have disable the restrictions too.

When I tapped the screen, there was a symbol on the left that looked like arrows going in a circle and on the right were the arrows crossed. The crossed arrows were orange, when I tapped this orange symbol, it turned to white and the songs STOPPED shuffle.

Sync services BB - i Mac

When syncronizing calendar and contacts between blackberry and iMac i am asked to have iCal or i receive a message stating my sync services are not switched on. How do i switch on sync services?

I have the same problem, please help!
I've been using iTunes with ipods for over 5 years now with no problems. I've also been getting the sync error since the latest update, music and everything syncs, but not calendars and contacts.
I tried a system restore on my iPhone & now I have a fresh iPhone with nothing on it. If I plug it into the USB port, iTunes opens & displays the sync error. The iPhone appears in the devices list, but nothing happens when you select it. No sync menu, or tabs displaying content at all. If I right-click there are no options except to eject.
If I do a restore mode boot on the phone, the same thing happens - the OS gets reloaded and I have a fresh iphone with no content and no way to sync!
I have a backup made this morning (appears in the devices tab in preferences) and no way to restore it. I could try uninstalling iTunes and resinstalling but I'm afraid I'll lose my phone backup.
Can I access the iphone backup on the HDD and use it once i reinstall itunes?
Thanks in advance.

How do i turn off the service searching?plz read

Ok so I was stationed to Iwankuni Japan and of course my awesome iphone doesn't work out here :'-( how can i turn off the phone part so that i can still have my wifi on and it isn't searching for service?
pretty much i want to make it an ipod touch.
Any ideas?

Hi there,
Just put it into Airplane mode: settings> airplane mode on
This will also disable Wi-Fi and Bluetooth though. To avoid this, take out the SIM card; then you'll have Wi-Fi, and all the non-phone features. Use a paperclip to press on the hole next to to the earphone recess; press firmly and the SIM card tray will pop out. Make sure you put the SIM card somewhere safe, away from magnetic sources. When you return home, simply put the SIM card back in; and you'll resume normal service, with no need to activate again.

How do you turn on location services for the Photos app?

I reset my location services and I need to reactivate the location services for those apps I want to use this function. I have turned on location services for all other apps, including CAMERA, but I cannot figure out how to turn it back on for PHOTOS (Camera Roll). This option did appear when I did the new iPhone5 setup, but I cannot get it back. And PHOTOS is not listed in the apps shown under the Location Services setting page. I set my wife's phone up too and the PHOTOS app is showing on her phones Location Services setting page. Help please.

Hi There
I had the same problem and actually I found out that in Location Services you need to Turn On the option for CAMERA, as there is no photos icon.
Cheers
