HT5361 Syncing mail on iPhone and Mac

Prior to upgrading my iPhone 5 to iOS 7, email messages I sent from my phone automatically appeared in my mail app on Mac. Now it doesn't seem to work that way. Anybody knows how to fix it?

Well, I signed up on my mac and then added the account to my iphone. Then I added the folders on my mac. They are all Smart Malbox folers with rules. Is that the problem? I've read somewhere that your phone won't sync the smart mailboxes ???
Thanks.

Sync between iPad, iPhone and mac of notes in icloud

The notes i ahve made on my ipad does notsyncronize with the other devices in iclod (Iphone or mac) ? what to do?

First check that all your settings are correct, that notes syncing (mail and notes on a computer) is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the notes you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by checking in accounts on an iOS device, or the left side panel in mail on a computer), non iCloud notes will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your notes are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking notes syncing (mail and notes on a computer) in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling notes syncing.

Sync Mail between iPhone and Macbook?

I'm brand new to Macs. I typically read my emails from the Mail app on my iphone. However, when I open Mail on my macbook, all of those emails that I've already opened are marked as unread. Does anyone know how I can sync my phone and computer so that everything I open on one device is open on the other device?

You need an IMAP account.
With an IMAP account, all server stored mailboxes are kept synchronized with the server automatically with each email client used to access the account.
For received messages with a POP account, there is option to not remove the messages from the server when downloaded by each email client used to access the account. With the Mail.app on a Mac, this is available under the Advanced tab for the account preferences. There is a Never option for POP account preferences with the iPhone's Mail client.
You can email this message with an attachment to yourself to be received by the Mail.app on your Mac after selecting Never for removing messages from the server when downloaded by the iPhone's Mail client.
On your iPhone, go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Select the POP account.
Select Advanced for the account settings.
Under the Incoming Settings section, select Never for delete from server.

Sync mail on iPhone and MacBook with Shaw internet

Shaw provides my internet connection and I can't sync the mail function on my iPhone and MacBook using their pop server. All of the incoming messages are delivered to both the iPhone and MacBook, but if I delete or file an email on one device, I would like it to do the same on the other as well. Does anyone know of a work around for this? The Shaw support site doesn't help and the Apple phone support didn't know hoiw to resolve this either.

Thanks for the quick reply. I checked with Shaw here in Victoria, BC. They don't have an IMAP service and their Exchange server only works on mobile devices. They are working on upgrades to their Exchange server but their customer support guy indicated that it could be several months before they are completed. So anybody in Western Canada that gets their internet from Shaw is out of luck for a while. The only solution for now is that you have to delete on both devices and any filing you do won't sync either.

How to Sync contacts between iPhone and Mac pro using iCloud?

Like many other people i have set up both my iphone and my Macbook Pro 13' on the same icloud account and yet my contacts on my phone are not transfering over to my computer propperly? They usually dont go on at all or they go on but not fully. (ie: cell number missing, or email is missing.) This has frustrated me ever since icloud came out, and i have ended up emailing every single one of my contacts from my phone to myself so that i can get them on my computer. If anybody has had this problem or has any suggestions i would be happy to hear.

Depends how you sync. If using iCloud, set it in the iCloud settings on the phone. If syncing with iTunes, set in on the Info page of your divice in iTunes

Sync Mail on Iphone and MB using I could

I had expected that I could keep my e-mail on my I-Phone and MB synchronized using I-Cloud, calendar and contacts sync just fine but not my POP based e-mail account.
The .me.com account does show up, but my business account does not. What am i doing wrong?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can add secondary accounts to mail on each device, but you cannot sync them between devices, it just isn't possible.

How to sync notes from iphone to mac

I am wondering how to sync notes and mail between iphone and mac.

Downloading of emails via webmail, iPhone and Mac Mail

I currently access emails from my ISP via three avenues. I use webmail when I'm in the office, iPhone on the go and Mac Mail at home. However, I will end up seeing the same emails three times. Even after deleting unwanted emails from my webmail, they will still appear in iPhone and Mac Mail when I access emails and vice versa. Has this anything to do with the POP or IMAP settings? I have set my ISP email on iPhone and Mac Mail under POP. I have ever tried to change the POP to IMAP with same results.
Any advice? Thanks.

I am having the same issue.

Upon syncing my iPhone and mac all of my ical and iPhone calendar events have duplicated. how can i fix this and avoid it in the future?

upon syncing my iPhone and mac all of my ical and iPhone calendar events have duplicated. how can i fix this and avoid it in the future?

Greetings,
Questions:
1. What version of the Mac OS are you running (Apple > About this Mac)?
2. What version of the iOS are you running (Settings > About)?
3. Do you backup your computer (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427)?
--- If you don't regularly backup your computer, now is the time to start.
4. Do you backup your iPhone (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766)?
Check the calendar list on the left hand side of iCal. Is it that the individual events are duplicated or is it just that you have the same calendar listed more than once? If its that you have more than 1 copy of each calendar, you can delete one of the duplicate calendars to eliminate the duplicates.
If you find that it is the individual events that are duplicated then there are 2 options:
1. Restore your computer iCal database or iPhone from a backup made before the duplication occurred.
2. Use a duplication removal program (or do it by hand) to remove the duplicates: http://www.nhoj.co.uk/icaldupedeleter/
If you have a backup made before the duplication occurred, reply back with what kind of backup you have and I'll suggest how to recover the calendars.
To avoid this issue in the future:
Keep regular backups. They are your best defense against data anomalies which are a fact of life in computers (although hopefully rare).
Keep your computer and iPhone software fully up to date (Apple > Software Update / Settings > General > Software Update).
Make sure the date and time on your computer and iPhone are correct before you sync the two devices.
Make sure the cable connections between the two is solid and that the cable shows no signs of physical damage.
Hope that information helps.

Help....I synced my old iphone to mac book pro and lost music

Help....I synced my old iphone to mac book pro and lost music. Is there a way to recover my music?

Not if it isn't in your itunes library. If you sync with a new computer iTunes will delete all iTunes media (such as music) from your phone and replace it with whatever media is in the new iTunes library. Sounds like that's what happened.

New to MAC - trying to sync iphone and Mac Pro with imac

Hi,
Just made the switch to Mac. Purchased my Mac Pro yesterday, loaded .Mac, and plugged in my iPhone to the computer. Followed the steps to Sync iCal and contacts from iPhone and although it is registering there is a phone and downloading photos, it is not syncing anything else.
The steps I took were System Preferences, .mac, and checked the relevant boxes. It indicates syncing is taking place but the calendar on iPhone and Mac Pro are not syncing.
Could anyone help with advice? SHould I be able to sync easily between the iPhone and the Mac Pro with .mac?

You use iTunes to sync an iPhone - not *.Mac Sync* or iSync.
*.Mac Sync* is for syncing between Macs, and iSync is for syncing third-party mobile phones and PDAs.
The iPhone specific forums are here:

Is it possible to sync numbers between iPad and iPhone and mac

Is it possible to sync Numbers between iPhone and iPad and IMac. I work in a school and want to keep test scores for my class in the one place without having to manually update the spreadsheets each time I enter scores.
Thanks in advance
Conor

Yes, Numbers syncs (very well) via iCloud. You need to activate Numbers iCloud sync on all of your devices.
On the Mac, go to System Preferences > iCloud and make sure Documents & Data is checked. Also click the Options... button next to Documents & Data and check Numbers.app.
On each iOS device, go to Settings > iCloud > Documents & Data > and turn on Numbers. Also go to Settings > Numbers and turn on Use iCloud.
After you've got things working, it's best to close down the Numbers document on one device before you use it on another.

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.
