HT4759 How do I sync my calendar from my macbook pro to my iPhone 5S?

The closest Apple store to me is 2+ hours away. While vacationing in FL, I took my laptop and new iphone into the local store in Naples. The "genius" who helped me set up "the cloud" and supposedly started it syncing. (Said it would take about 10 mins.) It's been two days now, and I can't get rid of the little bar running across the top that says "Moving calendars to server acct..." nor can I move the page of my calendar off of the month of Feb! Nothing is happening on my iphone, and now my calendar seems to be frozen. Shutting it all down does nothing. When I reboot the laptop and open the calendar the little bar is still running with that message, and I cannot use my calendar. Any help would be most appreciated! Thanks.

Make sure you calendar is on your computer ( Outlook for example). From there you can sync to the iphone.

Hi silverk,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand the need for all of your calendars to be up to date across all of your devices and how frustrating it can be when they are not syncing as you would expect. In this situation I would suggest reading over and using the attached article for troubleshooting.

Auto sync is not working. How can I manually transfer music from my macbook pro iTunes to iphone 5?

Auto sync is not working. How can I manually transfer music from my macbook pro iTunes to iphone 5? My iMatch is turned on and I can direct downlad my music to the iPhone from the Cloud; however, I want to direct import All of my music from iTunes to my iPhone 5 via the connecting USB cable and it is not working. Yes, I have tried restarting both devices, and no autosync is not working nor is is it providing the avaialbile option to select music in iTunes on my Mac to then sync. Please help. Thanks

Please disregard. I figured it out. Answer for anyone else running into this problem: You have to turn off iTunes Match on both devices. Apparently, if you activate iTunes Match it deactivates your abiltiy to direct sync.

Hey ther Caraaaaa,
It sounds like you have some photos you have imported to your computer that you would like to sync to your phone. This article should help you navigate to, and configure photo syncing from iTunes to your device:

How do I transfer my music from my macbook pro to my iPhone using iCloud

I have set up iCloud on my macbook pro and iPad2. But I cannot transfer all of my purchased apps and music to my iPad. I also cannot transfer my iTunes purchases from my macbook pro to my new iPhone 4S. How do I get iCloud to do this? Have I missed a step activating iCloud?

You don't use iCloud for this. You do it with iTunes.
On your iPhone 4s you need to use the same Apple ID for the iTunes Stores that you use on your Macbook Pro. Your iCloud ID can be different for syncing calendars, mail, etc. but in the iTunes stores on your phone, it needs to be the same Apple ID that you bought the apps/music with.

HT1386 I cannot sync the calendar on my MacBook Pro with either iPhone 4s or my iPad -I followed the apple instructions to sync but the data is not registering. Sorry if this is something very simple!

The info screen says my calendars are being synced over iCloud which they aren't pluse I want to sync them via the usb connection - how do i change that setting? Thanks

Hello Danny,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
I found this article for you to help troubleshoot why the calendar data is not syncing over to your devices.
It is named Mac OS X: Resetting the SyncServices folder found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627.
There are different instructions depending on your OS in the article.
If for some reason the issue persists, I would take a look at the article named Sync Services: Advanced troubleshooting for contact and calendar syncing located here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2481.
All the very best,
Sterling

How do I transfer a .pdf from my MacBook Pro to my Iphone WITHOUT Itunes

I am 100% Mac in my home. However I have been running into this, and similar issues, when I want to transfer video, music, pictures, and documents from my MBP to my 5S - I HATE itunes. Every forum says "just use Itunes"; however, I have never figured out why Itunes has to be so complicated. As such I do not have Itunes, nor do I wish to use Itunes. There has to be another way. I am looking for suggestions that will let me transfer digital data of many formats to my other Apple devices such as my Ipad2 and my Ipod touch - but for now, I just need the ability to transfer files of varying format to my 5S from my MBP. Please help if you know how to do this.
Please do not suggest that I just use Itunes - have been a Mac guy for about 4 years now and have never figured out how to use it.
I have signed up (turned on) Icloud, but have never used any cloud based system so I have no clue how to use it. Furthermore, every forum I have visited says that Icloud does not even work that way - I just do not understand the cloud. Everything I have ever done involves drag and drop from a PC to a USB or other storage device (I used to be a PC guy until I started realizing that I had to buy a new PC every year due to massive component failure). I have never been successful transferring anything from one Apple product to another so I have many redundant copies of everything I have that is digital - one for each and every device I own.
I might sound like an idiot, but I really am tech savvy, which is why this issue is irritating.

Thank you Carolyn and Terence for your very timely response!! I downloaded "dropbox" on my 5S using the app store; however, there is no such app for my MBP according to the results in the search box when I type it into my MBP App Store app. How do I get "dropbox" for my MBP (OSX 10.9.4)?

Why won't my music sync from my Macbook Pro to my iPhone 5?

When syncing my phone, the music doesn't go from the computer to the phone. Just recently I got a bunch of physical albums and after I uploaded them to the computer, I wanted to put them on my phone. I checked to make sure I have enough data, and I did. But when I try to sync the music from my Macbook Pro to my Iphone 5, it doesn't work. On my computer it says that the music is on my phone, yet it isn't. I tried deleting all the music and resyncing it, but that didn't work either. It shows some of the songs greyed out on the computer with dotted circles next the them, what is that? Also, on my phone, some of the songs have circles next to them with squares in them and when i click them they just turn grey. I've been trying for a few days and I am getting very frustrated. Please help!

I have this same problem. It is constantly recurring and after trying just about everything, I'm almost ready to give up.
Things I've tried, that have not worked:
restarting computer
closing all open apps on iPhone before sync
restarting iphone before sync
syncing with wire
syncing without wire (over wifi)
converting the music files to another encoding
dragging the music files individually onto the iphone in iTunes
dragging a selection of music files
putting music files in a playlist and adding that playlist
Does anyone have a solution?

HT1386 I am trying to sync my iPod Touches calendar to my MacBook Pro calendar. I have been successful at syncing the events from my MacBook Pro's iCal to the iPod but haven't been able to sync the events from my iPod to my MacBook Pro. Is this possible?

I have an iPod touch that I often use to manage different events for work. I have been able to sync the events on my calendar from my MacBook Pro to the iPod touch successfully using wifi. What I really need to do though is sync my iPod calendar events to my MacBook Pro calendar. Is this possible? How do I set this up? It would be a huge help if I could transfer the events on my iPod calendar to my computers calendar. I currently have the wifi sync option on and have turned on the sync calendars option in iTunes. Thank you for your help!

Syncing with iTunes
Syncing with iTunes copies information from your computer to iPhone, and vice versa. You can
sync by connecting iPhone to your computer, or you can set up iTunes to sync wirelessly with
Wi-Fi. You can set iTunes to sync music, photos, videos, podcasts, apps, and more. For information
about syncing iPhone with your computer, open iTunes, then choose iTunes Help from the
Help menu.
Set up wireless iTunes syncing: Connect iPhone to your computer. In iTunes on the computer,
select your iPhone (under Devices), click Summary, then turn on “Sync over Wi-Fi connection.”
When Wi-Fi syncing is turned on, iPhone syncs every day. iPhone must be connected to a power
source, iPhone and your computer must both be on the same wireless network, and iTunes must
be open on your computer. For more information, see iTunes Wi-Fi Sync on page 136.
Tips for syncing with iTunes
• If you use iCloud to store your contacts, calendars, bookmarks, and notes, don’t also sync them
to your device using iTunes.
• Purchases you make from the iTunes Store or the App Store on iPhone are synced back to your
iTunes library. You can also purchase or download content and apps from the iTunes Store on
your computer, and then sync them to iPhone.
• In the device’s Summary pane, you can set iTunes to automatically sync when your device is
attached to your computer. To temporarily override this setting, hold down Command and
Option (Mac) or Shift and Control (PC) until you see iPhone appear in the sidebar.
• In the device’s Summary pane, select “Encrypt iPhone backup” if you want to encrypt the
information stored on your computer when iTunes makes a backup. Encrypted backups are
indicated by a lock icon , and a separate password is required to restore the backup. If you
don’t select this option, other passwords (such as those for mail accounts) aren’t included in
the backup and will have to be reentered if you use the backup to restore the device.
• In the device’s Info pane, when you sync mail accounts, only the settings are transferred from
your computer to iPhone. Changes you make to an email account on iPhone don’t affect the
account on your computer.
• In the device’s Info pane, click Advanced to select options to let you replace the information on
iPhone with the information from your computer during the next sync.
• If you listen to part of a podcast or audiobook, the place you left off is included if you sync
the content with iTunes. If you started listening on iPhone, you can pick up where you left off
using iTunes on your computer—or vice versa.
• In the device’s Photo pane, you can sync photos and videos from a folder on your computer.
