  • Why iCloud on my mac does not sync with my iPhone

    Hey Guys/Gals
    How come my mac does not sync with my iOS device.... When I send messages from my messages app on my mac it shows on my iPhone aswel... When someone trying to facetime me it will ring both my facetime on my mac and iPhone... Since this morning after the iCloud ****** up... My devices aren't syncing... Need  help...

    I believe this was stopped in a recent iTunes update to "force" users to sync the calendar on the Mac and the iDevice to iCloud.

  • Address Book on MacBook Pro does not sync with IPad or Iphone

    I have a MacBook Pro with OS10.7.4.  When I add a new address it does not sync with my IPad or IPhone.  However, adding an address on the IPad or IPhone it will appear on the IMac Pro.  I have checked to make sure that the Address Book on my IMac is directed to ICloud.  I also tried to uncheck the Address Book on ICloud, recheck and restart the computer with no success.  What am I missing?

    It just started to sync.  Forget the question.

  • Address book empty on mac, won't sync with iCloud

    Hi everyone,
    I've got a Macbook running Lion and an iPhone running iOS5, I'm using iCloud to sync.  I discovered today that my Address book on my macbook is empty.  On my iPhone, I have all of the sync services turned on in iCloud.  I also have iCloud set up on the macbook, but the contacts box is unchecked.  If I check the box in iCloud preferences, it won't stay that way.  Once I close the preferences pane and reopen it, the checkbox is empty again.
    I'm not sure if this is a related issue, but this is also driving me nuts.  I have an exchange account that I no longer use that will not go away no matter how many times I delete it.  I can delete it from "mail, contacts & calendars" and in my address book, but it comes back every time.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thank you!!

    Ok, I fixed it.  I had to dump the entire ~Library/Application Support/AddressBook folder.  Once I did it solved both of the issues I was having.  Hooray!

  • Mac email not syncing with iPad / iPhone

    I am having a problem with Mail on my Mac not syncing up properly, and the problem is with the iPad and iPhone. The mail account is an IMAP account on Godaddy; the problem goes back before Yosemite, but it has taken me quite a while to find out what the problem is, so I'm hoping for a solution.
    The problem: I get a new email on my Godaddy account. It appears almost instantly on my iPad and iPhone, but it does not appear on my Mac. But, this doesn't happen all of the time, sometimes I do get the message on my Mac as well. I have worked with Godaddy support, and they had me delete the account from my Mac an recreate it, seemed to work but a couple hours later it broke again.
    Diagnosis of problem: Okay, so I started trying to diagnose the problem on my own to see if I can find a repeatable scenario, and I did. Here is what I did and, ultimately, what the cause is:
    I logged into GoDaddy's webmail application so I could monitor when email came in, then check to see if it was being picked up on the Mac. Whenever I found one on webmail that did not appear on the Mac I checked my iPad and iPhone, that is when I found out that the mail was appearing on those devices all of the time, without fail.
    When a failure occurred I quit Mail on the Mac and restarted it, it alway found the missing mail, even if I had read it on the iPhone and iPad.
    With this in hand what I tried was shutting down the WiFi connection on both the iPad and iPhone whenever I was home. What I found was that when the WiFi connection was turned off I never missed a single email on the Mac.
    So, next step was to turn the WiFi connection back on for both devices and monitor emails. This is what I found:
    If the email was read first on the mobile devices then it never made it to the Mac.
    If the email appeared first on the Mac, then it also appeared on both mobile devices.
    So, the problem is that if the mobile devices get hold of the email before the Mac gets at it, the Mac never sees the emails unless I quit Mail and restart it. But, if the Mac gets hold of the mail first, it appears on both mobile devices as well
    Any Ideas / suggestions? Other than turning off WiFi on the mobile devices every day when I get home .

    No, but you can go to your email provider's site and set up forwarding for your current email address to your new one.  That would allow not to miss any email while your friends are changing their contact information for you to your new address.  I did that with my old ISP POP account when I switched to iCloud email.  Just set up forwarding and inform everyone of your new address.

  • Address book of my mac does not show all my contacts in iphone. What do i do??

    Address book of my mac does not show all my contacts in iphone. What do i do??

    iCloud, which replaced MobileMe, requires OS X Lion (10.7.5) or higher.  You will need to upgrade to OS X Lion higher in order to set up iCloud on your Mac.  First check to see if your system meets the system requirements to upgrade.
    Lion system requirements are:
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available space
    Mountain Lion and Mavericks requirements are the same, as listed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5842.
    If you can run Mavericks, you can download a free upgrade from the Mac App Store.  If your system can only run Lion, you can go here to purchase a redemption code to download it from the Mac App Store.  If you prefer Mountain Lion for software compatibility reasons, you can go here to purchase a redemption code to download it from the Mac App Store.
    After upgrading, you will find iCloud in System Preferences>iCloud on your Mac, and can set it up as explained here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.html.
    Before upgrading, you may want to check the compatibility of your existing applications by checking here: http://roaringapps.com/apps:table.   Also be aware that older PPC programs such as AppleWorks and Office 2004 for Mac will not run on OS X Lion or higher.

    Your profile suggests you are running 10.6.8 and cannot therefore use iCloud or photostream.

    Since installing mavericks, my computer calendar does not sync with my iPhone and iPad calendars.  My iPhone and iPad are synced however.  What can I do to make all of my mac devices sync

    You don't sync the MM calendar anymore, you subscribe to it in iCal,
    iCal>Preferences>Accounts, enter the details here.
    MM should be the default calendar on all clients.

  • Why is my iCal not syncing with my iPhone and iPad?

    After upgrading to iOS5 and all the iCloud things, my iCal is not syncing with my iPhone or my iPad.  I've tried all the setting, but cannot figure out what I'm doing or not doing that it won't sync.  I checked the Cloud and the calendar is there.  Can anyone help?

    I had this problem, too. To reiterate, events on the iPad and iCloud were loading down into iCal on my Macbook Pro, but events I put on my MacBook Pro were not migrating back.
    It comes down to which calendar the event is listed under. In iCal (right now) your default calendars are all local. If you change the event to an iCloud calendar, the migration is seamless. So, when you create an event, just scroll down in calendars, pick the iCloud equivalent to the "On my Mac" calendars (they're mirrored/duplicated) and it all works just fine.
    I hope that helps.
