HT1296 I have changed from an iPhone 3 to an iPhone 4S and the calendars and contacts won't sync to my computer.

The iPhone 3 automatically transferred data from my phone to the computer and vice versa and would ask me to choose if there were any conflicts. The iPhone 4S doesn't. What can I do?

  • I have just bought an iPhone 5 and it won't sync to iTunes.  It says it needs  iTunes 10.7, which I have downloaded and installed.  I still get the error message and looking at "about iTunes" it says 10.6.3.  What do I do??

    Perhaps check to see if you're accidentally running two different versions of iTunes. There's some information on troubleshooting that in the Opening iTunes section of the following document:

  • Names in Members field under the UNIX Attributes Tab have changed from standard format (i.e. John Doe) to the actual account name (jdoe)

    Hello,
    Names in Members field under the UNIX Attributes Tab have changed from standard format (i.e. John Doe) to the actual account name (jdoe). The only time this happens is if a domain account is deleted and the remnant of the account remains and has to be removed
    manually. However all of the accounts, with the exception of any new ones recently added, now show the account name only. Any ideas on what caused this and how to fix it?
    Thanks :)

    Hi,
    I have not heard from you for some days, currently I am providing the related article for you. Hope this will help you on this matter.

  • HT201269 Where are the notes from my iphone backup and how can I sync them with my new macbook and ipad. And my galaxy 3g if someone is feeling especially generous with their time and attention. Many thanks.

    - The iTunes backup that iTunes makes included photos in the camera roll. If yo go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices what is the date of the backup? Is it when the photos were on the iPod? You have to restore from that backup.
    - What may have happened is that you backup the iPod after you restored the iPod but before restoring from backup. iTunes only keeps one backup and overwrites the previous backup with the changes.

  • I have an iPhone 3g and it won't sync address book contacts.

    I have an iPhone 3g and it won't sync address book contacts. My iPad does it via the cloud but now my iPhone won't do it. Please help.

    Have you tried a "hard reset"? If so, I would take the phone to an Apple store. If not,
    1. Make sure the phone is OFF
    2. Hold the HOME button and then press the power button and HOLD IT.
    3. Hold both buttons until the phone comes ON, goes OFF and come ON again (about 45 seconds)
    4. Re-sync with iTunes.
    Hope this helps.

  • HT1296 I have switched from a Exchange account to an imap account and now my contacts won't sync from my computer to my iPhone - what to do?

    I have switiched from an Exchange account (which I just deleted) to a imap account account. But I can't seem to get my contacts to sync from my laptop onto my new account.
    What should I do?

    What do you mean the ones "unique" to your phone? If you were not syncing them with something, they are gone. They are only part of the backup to preserve the list of favorite numbers and recent calls.
    Don't worry about having to restore the previous OS. You can not do so at all.

  • How do I transfer music from my iPhone 4S into the iTunes Library on my new laptop; my old computer crashed and I cannot sync my iPhone without losing the music on it.

    My old laptop crashed; had to buy a new one. How can I transfer the music on my iPhone 4S into the new iTunes Library?

    Try using a third-party utility such as iExplorer - iPhone, iPad Music & File Transfer App for Mac & PC.

  • Mac calendar and contacts won't sync with iPhone 5 since upgrading to Mavericks.

    Please,please, help,
    My mac calendar and contacts (and who know what else) won't sync with my iPhone 5 since updating to Mavericks. I have lost new medical appointments on my mac which never synced to my iPhone. I am completely frazzled as I am a very busy mum (who isn't!) and the call centre is closed! A am a bit of a technophobe but have discovered the "info" tab that appears when I connect my iphone to my mac to sync has disappeared with Mavericks. I hope someone out there can help me.

    Yes, you can reinstall your system from the backup you made before installing Mavericks. See this link

  • I just recently got an Iphone 6 and it won't connect to my computer

    I just got an Iphone 6 but when I plug it into my computer nothing happens, it doesn't even make the sound that lets you know it's plugged in. It won't sync to itunes or even show up in my devices on my computer. I'm on windows 7 on my computer and have already read through the guides on this site as well as a few other methods and nothing has fixed it. Also, it only charges on a wall outlet if I restart it after plugging it in.

    Do you have the latest version of iTunes installed (12.1)?

  • I Have an I-phone 3G and it won't sync with my computer

    I Recently had to format my computer due to viruses and when I updated my computer afterwards and re-downloaded I-Tunes my phone won't sync to the computer without deleting everything on it... Is there a way I can sync without having to delet everything? I have alot of photos and game save data that I would not like to lose

    Have you checked your settings in System Preferences>Sound?
    Have you checked with JBL?
    Ciao.

  • I have an iPhone 5s and I can't synce with my computer as the computer is updated to version 11.1 what do I do?

    I can't sync with itunes on my computer as the computer has updated to version 11.1 what do I do?

    Are you at the very latest version of iTunes? I believe that is 11.1.5.
    And let's just verify what version you have....
    1) Open iTunes
    2) From the Help menu, click About iTunes
    3) What do you see listed here?

  • IPhone 6 and Music won't sync

    Ever since I got the iPhone 6, I haven't been able to get my entire music library to sync to my phone. Tonight I tried plugging my phone up to my computer to get it to sync that way with no success. When I go into iTunes, I don't have the option to click on my music. It just says, iTunes Match is on. I can sync some music but not all. Why is this? I really want a certain album that I purchased on iTunes on my phone, but it doesn't seem to want to sync. It synced fine with my old iPhone. Just not with the 6. What am I doing wrong? I'm almost ready to reset it to its factory settings...
    Oh! And, am I the only one tired of losing ringtones/alert tones when an iOS update comes up?

    Hi kelleym,
    It appears you are unable to sync while using iTunes Match. I've linked to an article which explains why there may no sync options while iTunes Match is turned on:
    iTunes 12 for Mac: Use iTunes Match to access all your music anytime, anywhere
    Turn on iTunes Match on your iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad
    WARNING:    After you turn on iTunes Match on a device, all the music that’s currently on the device is deleted and replaced with songs from iCloud. Also, you can’t use iTunes to sync music to the device. You can add songs to the device only by downloading them from iCloud. 
    Sign in to the iTunes Store from the device using the same Apple ID that you used to set up iTunes Match on your computer (if you haven’t done so already). 
    On your device’s Home screen, tap Settings, and tap Music.
    Tap to turn on iTunes Match.
    For information about adding songs to your device from iCloud, see the documentation for your device.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,

  • I changed from i iphone 5 back to a iphone 4.. now my itunes does not recognise that i have a iphone 4! how do i convert my last back up (on iphone 5) to my new iphone 4?

    In your case you can only restore from a backup that has been created with the same iOS version. An iPhone 4 can only run 7.1.2, and, unless your iPhone 5 did not run the same version, you can't use a newer iOS backup of the 5 on the iPhone 4
