How to sync iCal to iPhone and iPad and back to MacBook pro.

I understand how to sync my MacBooks calendar to both my iPhone and iPad, but I want new entries from either device to transfer back into my computer, then get copied to the other device when I hook it up. Is there any way to do this without MobileMe?

Go to your calendar on icloud.com from your computer, then add a test event on both your iPhone calendar and your iPad calendar.  Do they both appear on icloud.com?  If not, which one doesn't appear?

  • How to sync iCal between my iMac, iPad and iPhone? I get duplicate entries

    I have a university Email (with Calendar) and then iCal on my desktop, laptop, ipad and iphone. I am finding that my calendars are not synced at all.. Either I get duplicates or I only get what I put on specific device.
    BTW- I do NOT have On My Mac calendars checked..
    is it easy to fix on my own or do I need to get to a Genius at an Apple store?

    iCloud is coming this Fall, and it's supposed to solve these problems, if you can wait a little longer.

    To sync any photos that are not part of photo stream, you will need to sync the photos to your computer via iTunes first and then to the other device.
    WC, will this work from photostream on my computer too?  I just turned photo stream on on my computer.  Thank you.  Liz

  • Can anyone guide me how to sync sms on iphone to pc and also what setting need to be done to make sure sms remain in iphone indefinitely - need to keep record for work purpose. thanks.

    Need help from the expert on how to sync sms on iphone to pc and how to make sure that sms on iphone is not being deleted - need to keep sms for office record purpose

    You mean take the cover off of the iPhone, to look inside?  I'd recommend against it.  Even with warranty expired, you might qualify for an out-of-warranty service, which for 3GS is $149.
    Other than that, any repair/service options are going to cost money.  You might want to see if a wireless carrier will let you get a new contract & phone.
    Out of curiousity, you're just using at as, basically, an iPod Touch, if there's no cell provider?  Did I understand that correctly?

  • HT4889 how do i transfer my itunes account (with all my music, photos and ipad apps) from a macbook pro to a new macbook air

    how do i transfer my itunes account (with all my music, photos and ipad apps) from a macbook pro to a new macbook air?

    thanks but exactly how do I do this.  I tried setting the new macair up using migration assistant but for some reason not everything has come through.  I bought a thunderbolt cable to improve the transfer rate.
    Now my question is how do I transfer the iTunes folder.  I have authorised the new macair for iTunes and am within the 5 computer limit.

    How do i put apps from my iPad 2 onto my macbook pro?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you mean to back them up, just connect the device to iTunes and sync.
    If you mean to use, you can't, those apps will only run on a mobile device.

  • How to sync iCal between iPhone and MacBookPro without MobileMe?

    Hello,
    How can I sync iCal between iPhone and MacBookPro without MobileMe?
    I'm still using MobileMe, but I will stop soon.
    I'm using my iPhone in India a lot to create new events or to add new contacts. At the end of the day I would like to able to sync it with my MacBookPro without using MobileMe. Internet Connection is often very bad in that area. The iPhone I only use without UMTS and all that Data Transfering stuff. Best for me would be to sync directly by wire or Bluetooth if possible. If you have a solution with and without Internet Connection, that would be very helpfull to me.

    On the Mac, in iTunes with iPhone attached, click on the iPhone section. Go to the "info" tab. There you will see a list of items that can be synced. Make sure that "sync addressbook contacts" is checked, along with the appropriate choices under it.
    Don't know what else to say, it works fine here.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to sync ical with multiple apple devices and android?

    Does anybody have use an android phone in addition to apple devices, and have you figured out how to sync ical with all? (I know there are other calendars that can be used by all, but it means a lot to my husband to stay with ical.)

    I tried Yahoo in the past but had trouble with duplicate entries. However, this was a while ago before Yahoo updated their site and this was with syncing to a Windows computer with Outlook in addition to a Mac so my results might not be typical. Yahoo's worth a shot, but my experience with Yahoo is why I use Google Calendar.
    Beyond that, I don't know of any other "free" services. There are many other hosted calendar sites that could work, but you'd pay something like $5-$20 per month, which is comparable to MobileMe.

  • How to sync play count between new iPad and Mac?

    I recently get a new iPad, and I listen to music on it a lot.  I would like to sync the "recently played" and "play count" with my computer, as I can with my iPhone, but it doesn´t seem to be doing that.  I have the ipad fully updated, and my computer too!

    On another note, my iTunes is allways above the other windows, I have checked my preferences and asked to NOT do this, but it persists.  Any ideas here?

  • How do I transfer Notes from my iPhone4s and iPad to my new MacBook Pro?

    How do I transfer Notes from my iPhone4s and iPad to my new 13" MacBook Pro with retina display?

    Finally figured it out...
    1) Open mail/compose notes on your macbook...
    2) copy and paste every note from Outlook to a new note in Mail.
    3) Open iTunes. In Info/Advanced tick Notes. This will replace / copy all Notes from Mail to your iPhone...
    4) Voila! Notes are on iPhone...
    I must say in spite of all the fabulous advantages of a Macbook and an iPhone, syncing really does suck...
    Transferring data from another smartphone to a Mac or an iPhone is tough...
    Features like "one way / two way" sync for Phone / computer or allowing us to select which whose, phone or computer, will be considered more important so that you can choose whose data will overwrite the other, are not there in iTunes... This is something which really needs to be there...
    Anyways... problem solved for now...
    ciao...

  • Reminders not working on iPhone and iPad, but are on MacBook Pro

    My reminders on my MacBook Pro are showing up 24 hours in advance of the set time for that reminder, but they are not showing up on my iPad 3 and iPhone 5. I have to power the iPad and iPhone off for the reminders to show up in the notification center. Does anyone know what's going on or how to fix this?

    Hi Bartman27p229,
    If your Reminders are not appearing on your iPad 3 and iPhone 5 automatically in notification center, here is an article of troubleshooting steps by device:
    iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Reminders and Tasks
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4000
    You may also want to verify that Notification Center is set up as you would like for Reminders:
    iOS: Understanding Notifications
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3576
    Step 4 of Troubleshooting Notifications explains:
    Check Settings > Notifications to ensure that the app is configured for notifications.
    If notifications do not appear only in the Notification Center, verify that the Notification Center setting for the app is enabled.
    Cheers!

  • How do i Get music from my iPad to a new MacBook Pro

    I have a lot of music on my iPad and want to get it onto my new MacBook Pro. It seems to want to sync the MacBook to the iPad which will wipe out all my music since the MacBook has nothing on it. How do I sync from iPad to MacBook?

    You need to make the new Mac iTunes library your syncing library. iTunes on the Mac sees your iPad as a new device because you have never synced with this computer before. You can make the Mac your syncing computer by following the instructions in this user tip. You will be able to transfer the purchased music on the iPad into iTunes when you follow this procedure.
