How often does iCloud sync ?.

How often does iCloud sync my devices ??

Your Mac's address book, on the front page - was the address you added inside a group that is listed in the general category "iCloud" or "On my mac" ?  If the latter, then that doesn't sync to iCloud.    If iCloud, you might try a small editing change to the entry, like erase last letter of last name, get out of address book, go back in and put the last letter back in.  That should force a sync.

  • How often does icloud sync calendars?

    Have  PC running Windows7, and iPhone5 and an iPad Mini (not sure what generation but I just bought it a few weeks ago).  I have all three devices set up with iCloud, but my calendar doesn't seem to be synching.  What's the issue?

    Thanks, but I cannot determine which device is having problems.  Seems they all are, because I've made experimental changes on each device and nothing shows up anywhere else. 
    Note:  I've been getting a dialog box that pops up asking me for the password for a particular server which I've never seen or heard of...  It shows a user name that is the first chunk of my iCloud email, but I don't recall what if any password I used when I set that up a few days ago....  I went back and changed the password on my Apple ID, but that didn't work....  I'm stumped.

  • How often does Firefox Sync back-up data? I see there is no preference selection allowing you to change the pre-set frequency (whatever that interval may be).

    How often does Firefox Sync back-up data? I see there is no preference selection allowing you to change the pre-set frequency (whatever that interval may be).

    However, the sync action only triggers every 60-minute and there is no user-configurable option provided. Although one can put a Sync icon onto the toolbar for easier access, it is still far from practical needs.
    To unlock this limitation, do the following:
    1) Type “about:config” at the address bar
    2) Search for “services.sync.syncInterval”
    3) Change the value from 3600000 (milliseconds = 3600 seconds = 60 minutes) to any value (in millisecond) of your choice
    4) Close and restart Firefox
    The Sync action will now trigger at the interval you just set.

  • How often does OS X sync with an NTP Time server?

    By default, how often does OS X Tiger sync with an NTP Time server? I am monitoring my systems with the tcpdump command and I never seem to see my Macs trying to sync with our time server. It seems like it only syncs at boot or when the Time & Dat System Pref Pane is opened manually.

  • Controlling how often my Q10 syncs with my Gmail account

    I cannot seem to control how often my Q10 syncs with my Gmail account. I have adjusted the settings for Gmail, Calendar, and Contacts several times, but it seems to pull the emails frequently (within an hour) regardless of the setting. I want to control the syncing manually. What am I missing? The phone is brand new and unlocked, running on AT&T, and this happens regardless of whether I am using WiFi or not.
    Thanks!
    Solved!

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    A few possible variables...
    1) What do you have set for "Use Push if Available"
    2) How exactly is GMail integrated? EAS? IMAP? POP?
    If the answer to item 1 is yes AND you have GMail integrated as IMAP, then the time interval setting is ignored. If integrated as EAS, it may also be ignored as well as the "Use Push..." setting might also be ignored. If integrated as POP, then there is no Push, so your time interval settings would be utilized.
    So, depending on the combination of factors, it may or may not be doing exactly now what it should be.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • How often does Cisco release signature updates?

    Hi, i would like to know how often does Cisco release updates for the Signature engine for the IPS appliances? I was not sure to make the auto update from Cisco.com to be every-day, every-hour or once a week?
    Also can you advise me of the recommended setting for Bypass feature for the interfaces?

    Since the auto-update checks go out the management interface it maybe better to have it set for every hour. That way you wont have delays in the critical updates. Assuming you are in inline traffic mode, setting the bypass to "auto" is the recommended setting for interfaces. That is also the default.

  • HT5372 Does icloud sync bookmarks between devices?

    Hi there,
    Previously, when I synced my iphone to my macbook pro using itunes, the bookmarks in safari including those in the bookmark bar, were synced too. Does icloud sync bookmarks in safari between devices? Thanks.

    Thanks. That worked. Unfortunately, I guess the way I did it, it synced in the wrong direction so I've lost all the bookmarks I'd added to safari on my laptop since the last time these synced. :-(  That's one aspect of icloud I find scary and frustrating.

  • How often does your CF instance need to restart?

    I'm considering CF as an application solution for a critical
    department..and not having much experience with it , was wondering
    how often does the CF service need to be restarted ? hourly, daily,
    weekly, monthly?????
    i've had experiences with other app servers that at times
    could be quite annoying...and would like to get some real world
    input on the issue.
    Many thanks..

    It definitely depends on how you code and set up the site.
    I've worked at a few places where the only time we restarted the CF
    servers (or services) were when we actually switched servers. Other
    places we had scheduled maintenance windows and did the restarts
    then, sometimes they were needed while other times it was just for
    the sake of doing it.
    You should also take into consideration the OS reboots, for
    Win2k3 or 2k8 you'll sometimes need to install critical patches
    which need to restart to take effect. I don't know about UNIX or
    Solaris and the others.

  • Quick Question - how often does a device check-in to see if it needs an iOS update?

    simple question which i cant get an answer from Apple or the Normal discussion forums, so thought i woudl try the developer forums.
    how often does a device check-in to see if it needs an iOS update?
    and if its perodically (something like 7 days) would that explain why on two devices - one would show as the latest update being 7.0.4 and one shows 7.0.6?

    How ddid you ask Apple?
    This information is probably simply not disclosed.

  • How often does the Apple TV sync with updated home sharing playlists?

    I am trying to use several Apple TV's at my business for content management throughout our campus.  I want to be able to have a playlist of pictures and videos that is easy to update.  Can anyone tell me how often the Apple TV syncs with the home sharing network for an updated playlist?  It would be very inconvenient if the only way was to do a reboot on every device each time content was updated.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    I can't really say for sure how often the Apple TV updates its shared libraries.
    I do however know that once the Apple TV as completed playing something, it will sync with the shared library in order to update the play count. So I'd be reasonably sure that the shared library is updated at least once every time something is played.

  • How to disable iCloud sync for a single app/game

    Since I bought the infinity blade game for it, I have a problem. Normally, both my sons play games one on my iphone and the other on the ipad, Now, we found the game syncing without us telling it to over iCloud and both the devices behave as if the game continues from the previous player on the last played device.
    Going through all the menus in icloud settings, there does not seem to be an easy way of disabling the game from syncing apart from disable all apps from syncing meaning all my Pages and Numbers documents wont sync.
    I did try the game and the game forums itself, which does not have any way to disable icloud sync.
    Both devices run the latest iOS and game updates. Can anyone help please.

  • How often does the m7 take a steps measurement?

    I have an iPhone 5s. I checked my steps in the health app and if I am to believe what I saw, the m7 takes 5 or 6 measurements per minute (that part I believe) and the hard part is that I took 200 or so steps in 1 minute. How often is the iPhone taking a steps measurement? It's not like I was running. I was in the grocery store, I think.

    Hi Kumar,
    I wasn't sure if it is done dynamically whenever there are changes or if there were timers that it uses to conduct it's table refresh rates and are those timers adjustable?  The documentation on the Cisco site is very vague when it comes to CEF tables on IOS's 15.1 and above.  Any good links you have on how it does it's updating would be very helpful to me - thanks!

  • How often does Mail download from a POP account?

    I'm trying to help a friend, but I'm not that Apple-savvy. I know in Windows mail clients, there are settings to adjust how often mail is downloaded from a POP server, but I couldn't find any such setting in my friend's MacBook mail application. He is running 10.4.11. Does it only download each time you launch the mail application or click the "Get Mail" button? Does it download on some pre-set schedule that can't be changed? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

    "but I couldn't find any such setting in my friend's MacBook mail application."
    I believe the equivalent setting is:
    Mail>Preferences>General>*Check for new mail.*
    "Does it download on some pre-set schedule that can't be changed?"
    You can change the times for the +"Check for new mail"+ setting manually or use the computer setting.

  • How often does Verizon update DNS?

    How often - How quickly,  does Verizon update it's DNS servers?
    The reason that I must ask is that I have just changed wevhosts and cannot connect to my new host.
    It has been over one hour now and I am dead in the water because I cannot connect!!!
    Yes, before you reply  -  I have checked using network-tools.com  and my site is in public dns
    www.josephcarver.com.
    How long should I wait before looking at alternative DNS?
    I am on the North Shore of Massachusetts - the delay is unbearable.

    Lesson learned - warning to those who might be hosting a web site and change servers + hosts
     "yeah, you can go ahead and do that"
    It's a combination of things.
    First it depends how fast your hosting isp issues a DNS push to send out your new address and then it's dependant on how fast the push trickles through all the dns servers in the world.  I believe if you check with your hosting isp they will say it can take up to 24 hours to propogate around everywhere.  You could use one of your hosting isp's dns servers as your primary dns server and then you should see the chnages virtually immediately, however that could slow down other access slightly as it might be slower to reach than a near at hand verizon server.
