HT2513 Is there any way to sync between laptop, desktop, iPhone and iPad without using the iCloud?

I want to sync my iCal between all my Apple products but this doesn't seem to be possible?
It all used to sync with MobileMe, but I didn't upgrade, so it stopped syncing.
If I use a 3-rd party calendar, say Google Calendars, in my iCal would that work?
From what I can tell, I can sync from one machine to my iPhone via iTunes, but that's all...
Thanks, Heather

Because apps on iOS devices are isolated from one another ("sandboxed") such an app would not be possible.
I recommend "SelfControl". It takes a little while to learn to use but it works on any platform.

    Is there any way to sync my lotus notes calendar and contacts with the calendar and contacts on my MacBook Pro?

    You would need to have enabled iCloud on your MBP. Your question indicated you did not.
    Its serial number is useful for establishing ownership should the MBP be recovered. File a police report.

  • Is there any way to sync my pc outlook contacts and calender with my mac

    is there any way to sync my work pc outlook contacts and calender with my personal mac air

    Sure. Install the latest version of iTunes on your PC, and just connect your iPod Touch to it, decline the prompt to autosync (the warning about losing your music), then go into the info tab, select sync contacts, and click apply. Your contacts will be transferred (both directions, i.e. the outlook contacts and your IPT contacts will be merged and the combined set will be present on both lists).
    Hope this helps...

  • Is there any way to differentiate between R12 gl records and 11I?

    Hello all,
    is there any way we can tell if a record is r12 or 11I aside from basing this on when we upgraded? We run reports that use reference_XX data from the g_je_lines table. The references have changed for R12 so we need to get the required data 2 different ways.
    Thanks.

    You can use je_header_id.
    Since it is sequential, you can say je_header_id >= x is R12.

  • I have switched computers - old one stolen - and lost access to my 800 or so song library. I started a new library. Is there any way I can retrieve my old library and add it to the new one?

    I am not very tech oriented - I love my Ipod - had a library of 800- 900 songs - my computer was stolen, I have since bought a new one - started a new library because I could not figure out how to access my old library. Is there any way I can somehow find that original library and add it to my new library??

    If these are photos that were synced to your phone, the only way to extract them from your phone is third-party software, like this:

  • Iphone 4S newly updated to iOS8, keeps popping up window notifying me of things I turned off (cell usage, location, etc) to preserve battery life.  Is there any way to make them stop telling me every time I use the affected apps?

    I have finally taken the step of updating my iPhone 4S to iOS8 after learning the hard way last update to wait for the bugs to be worked out.  I was horrified to find that the battery was being sucked dry in no time at all.  After finding a great article posted elsewhere on the apple forums, I went through and turned off all unnecessary options involving the use of cell data, location services and background refreshing.  My battery life has thankfully returned to what it was before the update.  
    HOWEVER, now, every time I open an app for which I turned these things off, the window informing me of that pops up.   I am getting really irritated by this as I made all of these decisions deliberately and am well aware that I may need to go back and change them in order to activate certain capabilities when I want to use them.  I had done the same thing with the last iOS, but there were far fewer that needed to be turned off and the battery life seemed to be less affected by those that I left on so it was not the annoyance it has become now.
    Is there any way to make the phone stop presenting me with these idiot messages?   TIA

    Sorry no, there isn't a way to turn off those reminders.

  • I have a password protected Numbers document I created on my MAC and share via DROPBOX. Is there any way to simply view this doc on my IPAD without purchasing NUMBERS for the IPAD?

    I use NUMBERS on my MAC to create a password protected document.  I share this doc via DROPBOX.  Is there any way I can view the doc on my IPAD without purchasing NUMBERS for the IPAD?  The doc opened fine on the IPAD before protecting it with a password.

    Using the term "opened" may have been incorrect on my part.  Before password protection, I simply viewed the doc by selecting it within my DROPBOX app.  No revisions could be made, but I could view the doc.    Now, with the doc password protected, the IPAD states this file can not be viewed.
    The IPAD users guide gives a list of files IPAD can view. Unfortunately, I find no info on how to open/view that file should it be protected. If

  • Is there any way that I can turn my iPhone 5 on without being near it cause my iPhone 5 was stolen and that guy that took it won't turn it on

    No there is no way to remotely turn the iPhone on. If you enabled find my iPhone within settings>icloud before it was stolen then best thing would be to enable Lost Mode.

  • HT3529 Is there any way to sync iMessages from an iPhone into the Messages on a Mac Book Pro?

    Basically, for me to upgrade to an iPhone 5s, I'll have to trade in my iPhone 4s. The thing is, I'm pretty sentimental when it comes to certain text messages and I would really like to be able to save them all somewhere, somehow. Everything else is backed up to my laptop, so I'm not concerned about anything else on the phone; it's just not wanting to part with the text messages... It would be nice if there is a way to sync the rest of one's messages into the Messages app on the MacBook Pro. Is that possible?

    If the photos were on the iphone when the last sync was performed, then you should be able to restore from backup.

  • Is there any way to send messages to other iPods and iPads?

    I have 2 iPads 2 iPods and an iPhone, and in am wondering if there is any way I can message any f these devices so I can talk to my children that are using my ther devices?

    you do not need different apple ID's  but you do need different 'received at' address set up in settings
    i run several different devices, all under the same ID,and can direct a message or face time to which ever receive at address I want.  Note, devices can have and will respond to multiple receive at addresses.

  • Syncing between iBooks on iPhone and iPad suddenly stopped working.

    Have been using iBooks regularly between my 2 devices and has been flawlessly syncing bookmarks and pages correctly. Just finished one book which had no issues at all. Purchased another and sync seems to have stopped working completely. Really annoying and quite ironic that the book that seems to have broken the system is the Jony Ive biography. I have tried downloading the book and also reinstalling the app but doesn't seem to come back to life.

    accidently found out how to sync the library:
    drag and drop an ebook (that you haven't purchased in the ibooks store) from finder into iBooks on your Mac
    open up iTunes and connect your iPhone or iPad - you should now see the "books" tab again next to apps, music etc...
    in the "books" section, choose "sync books" and "all books"
    press the sync button (lower right corner - don't know what its called in the english version) - your iBooks on the Mac should now be copied over to your idevice and vice versa. all the stuff that was on your iPad before should now also show up in iBooks on your Mac (including PDFs )
    this will at least keep your library synced on all devices, I think this won't sync bookmarks and notes though
    hope this helps a little bit

  • Is there any way to sync contacts created on iPhone that saved to Outlook through an exchange account without CSV migration?

    I thought setting up my work email on my iPhone would be a wonderful help in making after-hours labor easier...I had no idea how much I would be blending my business and personal life. I didn't know it would set Outlook as the default account for new contacts so, all newly created contacts became outlook entries. The second I noticed some really random numbers in my work account virtual roladex, I did the research and immediately made the change. (It would be really difficult to explain that "4/20 Josh" is legitimately a brewery friend to whom I was introduced on April 20th, at a special beer release event.) Needless to say, I am hoping to separate the work and non-work friends. 
    Now I'm wondering if there is a way to migrate or backup those contacts to an alternate account other than through a CSV file migration. A lot of contacts are saved with photos and strange fields of info, it would be great if there were a better way to transfer the content than by way of commas.
    Thoughts or suggestions?
    Many thanks!!!

    Worked like a charm and resolved my problem totally. The only issue I had is that, unlike the Computer (Mac OS). the iPad doesn't give constant visibility to what it is doing (feedback), so I wasn't initially sure it had done anything.
    When I opened my emailed message with .vcf file attached, and tapped the .vcf attachment icon, I saw activity on the icon for just a few seconds, then it reverted to the original with nothing apparently happening. After about 30 seconds, the secondary menut popped up indicating the transfer of 1200 addresses would be completed, if I approved the action. Another 10 to 15 seconds then transpired before the completed Contact list appeared on the ipad. So you must be patient, if you have a large Addressbook. That's reasonable,but unexpected lack of feedback left me wondering, like so many other things on the iPad.
    THank you for the assist. Apparently Apples Mac Genius people did not know this procedure, and I will pass it on to my local Apple Store Instructor.

  • Is there a way to sync my saved user ids and passwords between Mac and iPhone using iCloud?

    Is there a way to sync my saved user ids and passwords in Safari between Mac and iPhone using iCloud? Like I can do using Chrome for Mac and iOS...

    You three would do better to sync to google directly.  Google has a blackberry app that will allow you to sync your contacts and calendars.  The app isn't perfect, but it works reasonably well, especially if you're just using one calendar to sync.
    Then there's plenty of ways to sync those to your iPad using Google, including Exchange, or simply adding it as a google account.
    As for iCloud, there really isn't any supported or unsupported method to do what you're trying to do, at least at this time.  If there is, it would definitely be a hack and I would be wary of risking your contact or calendar data on it..

  • Is there any way to sync Outlook for Mac with iPhone? I have tried everything but not successful. Apple says it is not possible to sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5. Any help will be much appreciated.

    Is there any way to Sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5? Apple support says that only iTune can only sync contacts from "Contact" which is the default contact of Mac. If one is running Outllok on a Mac machine then it is not possible to sync the contacts with iPhone. It is strange that Apple distributors are promoting and offering machines with promise that Windows users can now run MS Office on Mac machines without any problem. While this is true, it is so strange that one cannot sync the contacts from MacBook Pro to iPhone5. If someone has found a way to sync contacts from Outlook to iPhone 5 please help as it is very frustrating to not be able to sync the contacts. Thanks, Amit.
