HT204053 do I need to use the sync feature in iTunes anymore for my iphone now that I have cloud

Just getting familiar with iCloud. Do I need to continue to sync my iPhone through iTunes to get my Outlook or will iCloud replace that function? Also, does all of the syncing between my calendar in Outlook and my contacts in Outlook?
Thanks,
Jerry

If you choose to use iCloud for Contacts and Calendars you should not sync those services via iTunes as well, that way leads to duplicates.

  • Do I still need to use the old mobile me backup system for backing up a mac desktop and if I delete it will it affect the memory of my system which has now Maverics

    Do I still need to use the old mobile me backup system for backing up all my data and having it able to get at in case of a crash, or can the icloud reset everything? Because I can not find any structured refrence, as to how it would be done. I am updated to Maverics. Also does the icloud continue if I uninstall the backup to free up space?

    MobileMe was discontinued in 2012 and all the data stored on it was deleted, and iCloud can't make backups of Macs.
    What I recommend you to make backups is to get an external drive and use Time Machine or an application like Carbon Copy Cloner. With this, you can access to your data everywhere and safely, and then, if you want, use a cloud storage service like CrashPlan. You can keep on using iCloud without backups

  • HT1218 What do I need to do to use the Airplay feature with Jango Radio from my iPhone or Mac?

    What do I need to do to use the Airplay feature with Jango Radio from my iPhone or Mac?

    Thanks Community! I solved the problem. In fact it was not a problem but lack of understanding. These guys at Apple are way ahead in thir thinking. I will try to explain as short as I can.
    In Lion, ihe Prefferences/Display show only two choices: 6-7 steps of resolution and some color tab. No two screens, no two display to overlap, nothing for us to do. "That was the problem"! Everything is automatic.
    When I connected the HDMI cable to the Miniport into a T-bolt slot, the TV screen showed the "spiral galaxy" how Zyriab is calling it. In fact he gave me the best clue. That shows the connection is good. But where is the Mac Book image?
    You have to drag it to the right out of the Mac Book display area, and "voila!" it will continue on the TV screen. The same with the mouse pointer, push it out ofthe Mac Book display area and you see it on the TV sreen. Good image, you can keep the max resolution, etc. The sound is still on the Book's speakers. I have to figure that out.
    Thank everybody, especialy Zyriab, ne was the closest.
    High regards to everybody

  • HT5105 I have been trying to create a multicam clip from two camera's. They sync properly when using the sync feature but not when I use the multicam feature does anyone know what I may be doing wrong?

    Probably best if you could post screen shots of the Inspecror window in extended view with a couple of the clips you using for the 2 angles.
    If you have audio from both cameras and have identified them separately, the sync is usually pretty reliable.

  • I keep getting an error The ipad can not be synced because the sync session failed. same error for my iphone. any ideas?

    I keep getting an error The ipad can not be synced because the sync session failed. same error for my iphone. any ideas?

    Try deleting iTunes from your computer. Do not delete your iTunes library. Then download and install a fresh copy if iTunes. Reboot your computer after installation of iTunes.
    Then reboot your phone. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart.
    Reconnect the phone to your computer running iTunes and see if the sync process will go through.

  • HT201317 I had my photo stream on and my icloud all set up, i just had the screen replaced and they somehow lost all the photos off my phone, but why wont the photo's reload back on to my iphone now that im connected to wifi again, where are all my photos

    I had my photo stream on and my icloud all set up, i just had the screen replaced and they somehow lost all the photos off my phone, but why wont the photo's reload back on to my iphone now that im connected to wifi again, where are all my photos???

    When photos are added to the photo stream album on a device (either due to a new photo having been taken or having been synced from another device using the stream) they remain in the album.  However, the syncing process involves copying the photos to the photo stream server where they are kept for a maximum of 30 days, up to 1000 photos.  If a device is reset or the stream is turned off or turned back on again (or in your case, the device was repaired), the photos that were on the device's photo stream album are gone and the only ones to appear are those that are currently on the servers (recall the 30 day limit).
    If some of your photos are older than 30 days, then they are no longer stored on the cloud and hence are not synced down to the iphone.
    Recall, photo stream is just a syncing service, it is not designed as a storage service for photos.  Always sync photos to a computer for archiving.

  • How can I tell how many emails I have on my iphone now that I have installed the update?

    How can I tell how many emails I have on my iphone now that I have installed the update?

    Your current camera roll is stored in iCloud via the backup, and the photos in Photo stream are also stored in iCloud for about 4 weeks.
    However, once you delete them on your iPad, they will disappear from your backup the next time it runs.
    The best way to sort your issue out is to:
    1) Connect a Windows or OS X computer to Photo Stream.  This will get your current photos onto your computer.
    and/or
    2) Connect your iPad to a Windows or OS X computer through the USB cable, and sync the photos across before deleting them from your iPad. This will get photos and videos.

  • How do I transfer a single playlist to my iPhone 5 without using the sync option on iTunes version 11.0.4?

    I'm having troubles transfering two new playlists I just created on my new MacBook Air to my iPhone 5. I have some music on my iPhone that isn't on my MacBook yet and I don't want to lose the music on my iPhone. How do I just transfer the playlists?
    HELP!

    Hi kailajeane,
    Not sure I am understanding what type of music that is on your phone but not your Mac? Is it music you purchased from iTunes directly on your phone?
    If so, then you can sync with your Mac - all you need to do is, before you sync, go to the iTunes Store on your Mac and click on Purchased under Quick Links. Then download the purchased music. Hook up your phone, and check your Music tab on the Device Profile and make sure you have everything you want to sync selected, and then Sync.
    Cheers.

  • How do I transfer bookmarks from one computer to another without using the sync feature?

    I have used the Belkin transfer cable which did not transfer the bookmarks. I can't find them on my C Drive. I'd like to transfer them manually using a thumb drive but can't without locating the file with the bookmarks.
    Firefox and its bookmarks are on the original computer. At this time I can't use the synch function, but must manually transfer the bookmarks. How do I recognize in the files and copy on an external device and then transfer

    Ctrl+Shift+B will open the show all bookmarks window
    and on the top of that it has an import/export menu using this you can export all your bookmarks into a file either as html or as a json
    you can then do the reverse on another PC
    does that help?

  • HT204053 can I use the same apple ID/icloud account for 2 iphones?

    I have 2 Iphones in the family.  Want the same music, ad apps on both phones.  Can I do this with one Itunes account?

    You can use the same AppleID for purchases (iTunes and App store), but as Winston mentions, get a second AppleID for iCloud and iMessage.  Otherwise, you will be sharing the exact same iCloud and iMessage accounts on both phones, so no privacy of messages or email between the devices.

  • I was given an older ipod as a gift and want to load the songs into my computer, but it says that I can not access the sync feature.  I registered for an Apple ID and when I tried it won't let me register.

    When I was given the iPod it had a GREAT load of songs already on it. (That was part of the whole "gift" thing.)  I want to sync it and create playlists in my own library and copy the songs to my computer's library too.  I applied for an Apple ID, and find that this is so old that eventhough it was NEVER registered it is listed under a weird username and won't let me register as the new owner to access the music and sync.  What do I do?  It is an older version (I'm assuming) with 80G and only 25 have been used.  I can't access the music already loaded and don't want to lose the mp3 files I have in my existing library now too. 
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Not sure if this helps:-
    The music files, were they bought from your iTunes account or did someone gift them to you after buying from the iTunes account? If they are yours you can download them again if you clear or de-authorise the ipod, it has to be done by whoever gave you the ipod to do this (the registered  owner). If they were bought for you on another itunes account I don't think Apple let you use them as they are copyrighted and they don't belong to you, they belong to the person who bought them. If the music files where ripped from music cd's then click and drag them to a new folder on your desktop and have the person who gave you the ipod to de-authorise and unregister it. Then you re register it and put your files back from your desktop folder in your iTunes folder and synch. Hopefully that would work.  Any files which you did not buy, I would not know how get around this, best bet is to take it to you nearest Apple  Store and explain that they were gifted to you and ask how you can use them.  The best way to gift music files is to buy the gift tokens and give these. Hope above helps.
