How to stop syncing bookmarks, IOS 8/Yosemite

I have three Apple devices...Macbook Pro using Yosemite, Ipad and Iphone 5 using IOS 8.  All of my MAC bookmarks sync'd to the hubby's Ipad and that's not good.  I cannot find a setting in Icloud on any of the devices that prevents the sharing of bookmarks.  In addition, I can't find a way to delete those bookmarks other than one at a time on the Ipad.  I don't want to turn off Icloud backups and sharing of calendars/contacts.  Thanks for help

On the iPad/iPhone: Settings > iCloud > Safari to Off
On the Mac: Apple Menu > System Preferences > iCloud > Safari to Off

    How do I sync bookmarks from safari on my pc to my iPhone with the iCloud?

    Do you have Windows 7 or XP? If you have Win7, install the iCloud control panel for Windows and set it up there (Ignore the fact that it shows IE in the control panel, once you check it off, you'll be able to select Safari).
    If you have Windows XP, you don't.

  • How do I sync bookmarks between Macs

  • How to stop Sync from duplicating my Bookmarks

    When I open FF on either my Mac or PC, I find duplicate bookmarks. When I delete the dups, they appear the next day. This has happened now for the past week and I am tired of having to delete them each day!!
    What is going on and how do I fix this?

    I was having this problem. After almost pulling all my hair out trying to figure out why my bookmarks keep duplicating, even after I deleted my Firefox installation, deleted my Sync account, and created a fresh installation and fresh sync account, and I still watched as my bookmarks kept duplicating even after they were totally deleted. I then disabled my WiFi to see if I could isolate the problem, and I was still watching my bookmarks duplicate in multiples of 20+ right before my eyes!!! Then, I knew the problem was much deeper than the bookmarks Syncing process. It turned out to be a conflict between Firefox Syncing bookmarks and Apple's iCloud bookmarks Add-on for Firefox. Once I removed Apple's iCloud Bookmarks Add-on, the duplicating stopped. I restored my bookmarks backup saved to my cloud account and everything is working perfect now. Thank goodness!

  • How to STOP syncing with Outlook via GPRS?

    I use an unlocked iPhone 3G with a prepaid mobile card.
    Everytime I open my Calendar function on the iPhone (just to see the days and dates) the iPhone attempts to sync over the air with my Outlook account calendar via GPRS.
    This costs a bomb on the prepaid card, and I want to stop the sync function.
    Would someone kindly tell me how to STOP the iPhone from syncing with my Outlook Calendar?

    If calendar events are synced over the air, this means you are accessing an Exchange account or a MobileMe account.
    If you don't want to sync calendar events over the air with the account, you need to turn Calendars off for over the air syncing for the account preferences on your iPhone. This will erase all calendars and calendar events from your iPhone and you will need to sync direct with a supported application on your computer via the iTunes sync process. If an Exchange account with Outlook on a Winblows PeeCee, this will not be possible.

  • How to stop Syncing two iPhones

    I have Phone 4s an bought one for mum, how do I stop mine from auto sync apps with mums iPhone?

    Set yours up as a brand new iPhone.  Doing the following would completely erase it and make it as if you just took it out of the box software-wise:
    Settings > General > Reset > Erase all content and settings
    Again, it will then look like a brand new iPhone.  You would set up your own Apple ID and password, and start from scratch with nothing but what comes on the iPhone.

  • Exchange ActiveSync - how to stop syncing

    I would like e-mails and calendar sync only manually, not automatically.
    Everywhere in setup I sync turned off or set to manual sync.
    When then manually synchronize emails, everything ok. Emails syncs only when I want to. But, when I manually synchronize my calendar, synchronization is performed. Unfortunately, they also synchronize emails altogether.
    And - when I synchronize the calendar manually for the first time and since then, calendar and mailbox automatically synchronized spontaneously. Synchronization does not stop. Help just restart my phone. After the first manually synchronize the calendar, the calendar and then emais sync automatically again. Please help. Thank you.

    Hi VaclavM
    Welcome to the community.
    In this case you could try unticking the boxes within the accounts section.
    Menu > Settings > Accounts > Exchange Active Sync > Choose email account > Untick everything aside from Calendar.
