HT4910 iCloud sync iPhone video

I thought my iphone 4S videos would sync automatically with icloud and my mac book pro...how do I do this?

I just found the page mentioning how to transfer video. It wasn't on this site (explaining why I couldn't find it), but it only relates to video purchases from iTunes.

Is there any way to get iCloud sync (iPhone + 2 Macs) without wi-fi?

We have two Macs (MacBook Pro, iMac) and one iPhone 4; OSs up-to-date (Lion, iOS5). Our only routine access to the internet is via the mobile phone 3G network for the iPhone, and via a 3G USB stick/dongle for the Macs, also using the mobile phone network. We do NOT have access to the internet via a local wi-fi link to a router (whether ADSL or cable). This is in Melbourne, Australia, btw.
Question: is there any way at all that we can get syncing of contacts and calendars for all three devices? - preferably automatic, ideally real-time whenever a device could see the internet. With syncing set, there seem to be some random updates (and duplication) between devices, but it seems that normally syncing is enabled only when the device sees the internet via a local wi-fi link to a router, and that's what we don't have. (We can't trundle the iMac to an internet cafe either!)
Understood that a local sync would be possible via iTunes for one of the two computers and the iPhone, provided they could see each other wirelessly - but there's a second computer...
E-mail no problem; we use IMAP.
All suggestions gratefully received!

Thanks for this quick response.
I thought I had established by searching forums that iCloud sync routinely requires wi-fi. I can see from Apple documentation that backup does; and that Documents and Data (in iOS) has a switch to permit/deny syncing using a cellular network. What I have not found is a one-stop-shop on the Apple site that says which iCloud facilities are supposed to work with cellular/3G networks and which not. Can you point us to such a list?
Regarding our own problem: the missing link appears to be the download of new entries from the cloud to either of the Macs, the Mac being connected to the internet via 3G. For example a new calendar appointment entered on the Mac duly appears on the iPhone; but a new appointment entered on the iPhone fails to appear on the Mac. (If it is re-entered on the Mac, it gets duplicated on the iPhone.) Checking the iCloud website show that a new iPhone appointment is getting as far as the cloud; but apparently no further.
I think you'll agree that this makes iCloud calendar syncing next to useless.
This may not (as you imply) be caused by the use of the 3G connection. However in the two households in our family we have one with wi-fi and essentially the same setup, except that the iPhone is a 3GS. In the wi-fi setup, a new appointment entered on the iPhone calendar promptly shows up on a Mac.
If the sync problem has nothing to do with the mode of internet connection, how might it be cured?

Cannot Sync iPhone Video back to iPhone

Alright, so I took some video on my iPhone 3GS. As part of my normal archiving process, I have all photos and videos from the iPhone automatically imported into a specific album ("iPhone Album") in Adobe Photoshop Elements 7 upon connecting my iPhone to my PC.
When the importing is done, I have it set up to automatically delete the pictures out of the Camera Roll (since I now have a copy of them in Elements).
Then, when I sync via iTunes, I have it setup to sync the iPhone Album back to the iPhone.
The net effect of this is to move all of the Camera Roll pictures and video to the "iPhone Album" where it joins some pictures that come from elsewhere and exists in duplicate -- one on the iPhone one in Elements.
The problem is that when you sync a PSE Album to the iPhone it DOES NOT sync videos contained in that album -- EVEN VIDEOS ORIGINALLY TAKEN WITH THE IPHONE.
Any workarounds for this? I'm assuming this is a bug and that it's not actually intended to work this way, correct?
Thanks!

I don't think this is a bug - I think it's by design. The iPhone has always synced video via iTunes to the iPod app - that's the model. And it's always stored anything captured with the camera to the Photos app.
I agree it's illogical (and annoying) that, on the phone, video captures got to the Photos app. Maybe there should be a separate Videos app to make more sense.
I'm not defending it - simply saying that it probably isn't a bug

How to sync iPhone video back from Mac to iPhone?

I synced a number of iPhone recorded videos to my iMac and deleted them from my iPhone. I now want to put some of them back on my iPhone. I made a playlist in iPhoto, dragged the videos into it and tried to sync that playlist back to my iPhone, but neither the list or the videos in it made it back to the iPhone.
Does anyone know how to get videos back to the iPhone again?
thanks,
Erik

You can use the iTunes Photos setup pane to sync photos and videos (Mac only, iTunes 9 or later required) back to the Photos application on iPhone. I added my video to the album I sync to my phone.
Be sure to check "Include videos".

ICloud syncing iPhones and iPad but not to iCloud nor my Mac

I have two iPhones, an iPad and two MacBooks. iCloud is used for syncing the content. This all works ok, except for the Address book. Address book content is synced only between the iDevices but neither to the iCloud Web-Portal nor to my Macs. This is very puzzling because I thought all the synchronization is done through iCloud, so how can the iCloud Portal and my Macs be left out. Especially given the fact, that the calendar sync works perfectly.
Here's what I did to verify:
- create a new address record named "test iPhone" on my iPhone. The record shows up on my iPad, but not in the web and not on my Macs
- create a new address record named "test iPad" on my iPad. The record show up on my iPhone, but not on the web and not on my Macs.
- create a new address record named "test Mac" on my Mac. The record shows up in the web and on my iDevices
- create a new address record named "test Web" via iCloud web interface. The record shows up on my Macs, but not on the iDevices
any ideas?

You can have each individual service turned on or off, so while you may not be using 2 iCloud accounts, it is perfectly possible to use 2 accounts and get exactly the results you are getting.
Why don't you look to see if you are using 2 accounts, you could check settings > mail, contacts and calendars on your phone and iPad or just look at the contacts app.

Syncing iPhone video to iMovie

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows how to sync video from my iPhone to iMovie? Anything can help. Thanks

This is not supported at the present time, which isn't a sync process. This is an import process.
As with a digital camera that supports capturing photos and videos, you can use iPhoto to import photos and videos that were captured by the iPhone. Since all iLife applications are integrated, you should be able to use iMovie to access the video in iPhoto.

My iPhone 5 is in recovery mode but i want to save my pictures and videos! is there any way i can do that? i have a back up from 2 days ago and i don't have my iCloud sync with my photos

is there any way i can do that? i have a back up from 2 days ago and i don't have my iCloud sync with my photo

When restoring from the backup, whatever is included with the backup from two days ago should be restored which includes photos/videos in the Camera Roll at the time of the backup along with all other data included with the backup at the time of the backup two days ago.

TS3999 How to sync calendars in iCloud from iPhone to iPad

I have a new iPad. I have synced my iPad/iPone to iCloud. but my calendar from my iPhone is not showing up on my iPad, or in iCloud, when I pull it up online. Please advise.

Ok, back now. Migrating your Google calendar to your Mac is even easier than I thought. This video will show you how to do this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvFiKn_guEw&feature=player_embedded.
Once you've migrated your calendar to your Mac, if you have OS X 10.7.4 or later you can enable iCloud syncing for your calendar (as well as other data) by setting this up as shown here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.html. Once you set this up on your Mac and turn Calendars syncing to On your newly imported Google calendar will import to your iCloud account, and be reflected on your phone if you have Settings>iCloud>Calendars set to On. Before syncing doing this you should turn off syncing with your Google Calendar though as trying to sync with both iCloud and Google can create problems.
If you don't have OS X 10.7.4 or higher you'll have to sync your new calendar from your Mac to your phone using iTunes. To do this, first go to Settings>Mail,Contacts>Calendars>Default Calendar and confirm that you have selected your iCloud calendar as your default. Then connect your phone to iTunes on your computer, click on the name of your phone on the left side, go to the Info tab to the right, check Sync Calendars, then further down under Advanced...Replace Information on this iPhone, check Calendars. Then click on Apply at the bottom to Sync your phone. This will replace the calendar on your phone with the calendar on your Mac. Once on your phone, if you have the calendar on your phone, if you have Settings>iCloud>Calendars set to On the calendar will upload to your iCloud account. (As mentioned earlier, before syncing doing this you should turn off syncing with your Google Calendar as trying to sync with both iCloud and Google can create problems.)

Why I can't import o sync my videos made with my IPhone 4S?

I can't import o sync my videos made with my IPhone 4S. Have try ICloud Photo Stream, IPhoto, Image Capture, Drang and Drop, Dropbox, also turning it on and off, nothing seams to work. Can someone please give a efective solution? Thanks

The iPhoto app (version 9.4.3) on my iMac (with OS X, version 10.8.4) no longer imports videos from my iPhone 5 (with the latest version of iOS). This problem arose suddenly roughly one month ago. Whenever I connect my iPhone to the iMac, all my photos are imported without a problem, but I get the following error message for all of the videos on the iPhone:
I get the same error message when my children try to import videos from their 5th gen iPod touches. The videos simply do not get imported and they remain on my iPhone anmd the iPod touches. Strangely, I can send the videos via iMessage or email to other iPhones/iPod touches and they play with no problem on the recipient iDevices.
Again, this problem began suddenly roughly one month ago - I was able to import videos from my iPhone 5 without incident before it suddenly stopped working - and I am stumped at how to correct this problem.
I do not have any issues with storage capacity on my iMac, so that possible explanation can be ruled out.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Will photos in iCloud sync to my iPhone or will photos on my iPhone sync to iCloud?

My set up is I have all my photos on iCloud with full resolution photos and videos synced to my Macbook while optimized photos and videos are synced to my iPhone.
I saw the amount of photos and videos on my Macbook is missing some photos and videos when compared to my iPhone. When I checked my iPhone, I noticed some videos didn't have a thumbnail but instead a white square. When I tried to play the video, nothing plays even when I leave it sitting there for a long while.
After some searching around, an article said the photo list was corrupted and if you delete 3 certain files on the iPhone, the photos list would rebuild itself. I did that, and it did rebuild itself.
However, around half of my photos were gone. I think it's because my iPhone was set to optimized so it only rebuilt with the full resolution photos left on my iPhone.
So, my question is, if my iPhone syncs with the photos on iCloud, would my iPhone download all my missing photos? Or will my iCloud sync to my iPhone so my iCloud would also be missing half of my photos?

Greetings,
What version of the MacOS is running on the PowerBook?
Cheers.

My Mac has a Different Apple ID to my (ex mobileme) iPhone - how do i get them to iCloud sync?

I have just moved my mobileme account to iCloud, and attempted to synchronise my iPhone and Mac - but now both are pointing at different Apple IDs !!! HELP.
Two Apple IDs?
I have long used one Apple Id for iTunes and my App Store purchases, whereas my MobileMe account handled all the synching of data, contacts, calendar etc between my Mac and Phone. I had no idea at all that my MobileMe account was also an Apple ID whenever this was set up... indeed even in System Preferences MobileMe had a separate account login to iTunes or the App Store.
MobileMe to iCloud forced my phone to use my MobileMe account instead of my Apple ID account.
While I have used the same Apple ID used for purchasing across both devices... I didn't get a chance to set up my iPhone with the same AppleId as my mac...the process just decided to use my mobile me account.
MobileMe => iCloud has permanently set up my devices with DIFFERENT Apple Ids. No way to change Apple IDs
So the MobileMe to iCloud sync process has landed my iPhone with my MobileMe account as an Apple ID, whereas my Mac is on my iTunes (payments) Apple ID. It seems there's no way to change the Apple ID on any device - the latest OS updates have removed that possibility.
So iCloud doesnt work at all....!!!
Basically iCloud is syncing absolutely none of my data between my devices... one device points at one account (ex MobileMe) while the other points at my (payments/iTunes) account. I can't change either of them to point at the same one.
And to top it all, one of the iCloud accounts isn't even syncing?
So now what iCloud?

the key to happiness is separating the 'itunes' id from the 'everythign else' id.
the 'everything else' id should be (maybe must be) an @me email; make a new one if necessary. it's only used for iCloud.
LEAVE your iTunes id as-was; you do not want to add yet anohter id to your purchases. I even un-did any and all of my old iTunes DRM purchases by burning songs to virtual CDs and ripping back into iTunes for my older multpiple apple ids from the past.
when setting up an iPhone iPad or even mac lion you need to use the @me address, however when DONE setting up initial set-up you must LOG OUT in settings -> store and from iTunes and sign back in with the iTunes user id.
once your iCloud user is the new @me free username (you do not have to EVER use it for email so fret not that it's a 'new email address). you can get all your devices syncing happily.
FYI; you can get ios4 and snow-leopard (probably even leopard) syncing happily through iCloud as well; push may not work, have to hit 'refresh' but i have to do that on my lion mac anyhow so big deal

I can't seem to update icloud's calendar via my iPhone's calendar. Also, iCal on Mac follows iCloud so when I sync iPhone to Mac it becomes a even more confusing situation...

Pardon my ignorance. I have scoured the forums and no one seem to touch on the exact subject I am talking about.
I can't seem to update iCloud's calendar via my iPhone's calendar with all connectivity turned on (sync,push,pull,slap whatsoever).
Also, iCal on Mac follows iCloud (sluggishly and not due to connection problem, so i'd nice to have a status bar telling me whether or not it's active and doing some updating) so when I sync iPhone to Mac it becomes a even more confusing situation...
Simplified version:
-Events created on the iphone doesnt get on icloud.
-When iphone is synced with ical on mac and changes are made on Mac, changes are not immediately reflected on iphone unless clicked "sync"
-I just want to view a live ical at all times without going to safari and opening up the web iCal. I want to view a 100% live iCal on the native iCal via iPhone. Like google docs! Is that too much to ask!?
Iphone seemed to have a "push" or "sync in this many minutes" option for iCal, but that seemed like it's only receiving changes, and not send out changes made via phone. Very confusing, very annoying!

Download iTunes using the tab at the top of this page. Then run the update with iTunes closed.

I recently purchased a movie (Prometheus) on my computer through iTunes and every time I try to put it on my iPhone, it fails. How can I successfully sync this video? Mind you, every other file syncs flawlessly.

Can you connect to a wifi source on the device? Enable wifi in settings on the device itself. If you don't have wifi at home, there may be a local hotspot you can use for this.
The reason this happens is carriers don't want people downloading huge files that would slow their network as well as eat up your data plan.

Outlook not syncing with icloud on iphone

outlook not syncing with icloud on iphone?

Also make sure you are using the same iCloud account on your PC and your iPhone. Go to Settings/iCloud on your iPhone and check the account email address. Then check the iCloud account on your PC. If you have a Windows PC, click on the iCloud icon in your system tray to see what icloud email account you are logged into.
I changed the email on my iPhone and. iPad, but forgot to change the email on my PC and my calendars wouldn't sync. It finally dawned on me that I forgot to change the account on my PC.

HT204406 Since going over to icloud, my iphone no longer shows as a device in itunes and I can no longer sync the phone with the macbook

Since changing to icloud, my iphone is no longer recognised in itunes and does not show as a device nor can I sync it to my Macbook.
Any suggestions please

Nothing has changed that would affect the way the iPad is recognized in iTunes. Here is the link to Apple's support article on this issue.

You probably have done all of these steps except for....
Mac OS X v10.6.8 or earlier only: Reinstall the Apple Mobile Device Service.
Here is another troubleshooting article that might help.
