  • Iphone contacts and photos is not syncing to iCloud

    iphone contacts and photos is not syncing to iCloud

    I also have this problem, just from the iPhone 5s which makes my life crazy, too.
    The problem of having multiple devices doesn't seem to help, but the odd part is when everything I am doing is correct, it still doesn't sync like it used to do before iCloud, and when we had to USB wire connect the iPhone to the Laptop to make contacts sync.
    Might I add that I am not using MAIL on my LAPTOP?
    but ?Britty sounds like her issue is easier as gmail sometimes can create duplicates so you are in good if you are not having that problem or nightmare...
    IF ANYONE ELSE can PLEASE ADD to this THREAD? I would be thankful
    as there seems to be a TRENDING on iPhone 5s not syncing with other devices or backwards.....(I have added contacts to the iPhone 5s and they never get added to the iCloud or the iPad or the Addressbook or CONTACTS on the LAPTOP....
    This should be working and I have checked the CONTACTS on the laptop GROUPS , iCloud, vs ALL ON MY MAC
    it just isn't syncing and in some cases I am getting a WEB DAV error or CAL error...-1
    what is that? iCloud will not sync all contacts?
    something is crazy
    but I want to remain at 10.8 MOUNTAIN LION and not upgrade to MAVERICKS......or use MAIL on my LAPTOP...just CONTACTS ONLY......

  • My iPhone calendar and iCloud sync only one way

    My iPhone 4 (iOS 5) calendar and iCloud sync only one way -- from iCloud to the phone. Any ideas why I can't sync from my iPhone calendar to iCloud?

    When you add an event on Iphone, 3rd fields down from bottom, select calender > iCloud. Voila!!
    I am not sure everybody understand really the intention with iCloud. It is one single calender residing on a Apple server somewhere. Selecting iCloud from any device will show this calender. Then how to sync this with other calenders is to me a mystery, or not possible, especially on Lion iCal. Please anyone.

  • Syncing iphone contacts with iCloud does not work

    I navigate to my iPhone 4 Settings and from there chose the option which is named iCloud
    I turn OFF Contacts choosing to keep contacts on my iPhone and then turn it ON again.
    I get prompted with the option to Merge my iPhone contacts with the ones I have on the iCloud already. I  click "Merge".
    I wait until the iCloud service is turned on for my iPhone contacts.
    Finally, I go back to the Contacts app on my iPhone and click Groups, which is there I assume because I have multiple email accounts linked to my iPhone. I refresh my contact list by clicking on the circular arrow in the top left corner of the screen on the iPhone.
    Contacts I have recently added to my iPhone are NOT transferred to iCloud.
    Why is this not working?

    Go on system preferences / iCloud and check if Calendar is turned on.
    Then take your iPhone 4 and go on Settings/iCloud and check if the Calendar is turned on.
    If both are on with the same Apple ID, it should all go fine.
    You can go on iCloud.com, logon with your Apple ID and click on the calendar to verify.

  • Just got an iPhone 4S and iCloud will not verify my account

    I just got an iphone 4S and I am trying to set up icloud with it and my Macbook but it will not verify my email so I am at a loss as to what to do? Any suggestions

    What version of iTunes do you have? You must have iTunes 10.7 or later. iTunes 11 is the latest.
    If you are using iTunes 11 use the View menu to View Sidebar and then connect your phone. Does it now show up in the left sidebar?

  • After reinstallation of Outlook 2010 on my Laptop, Contacts and Calendar did not appeared while they are exist in my iphone 5 by using icloud. What I should do to get Contacts and Calendars in sync with iphone 5? Thank you.

    Thank you.

    So you have business contacts that were lost... do you not have these on a Database in some shape or form? Sounds like you need to invest in a RAID1 backup setup for your computer so you dont have this issue in the future.
    As for repairing your problem, sounds like you are going to need to start from scratch at this point or if the data is still on your phone look into a program that can take the information from the phone onto iTunes.

  • How do I get my calendar to sync on iCloud?  I changed a calendar event on my iPhone 4 and it has not changed in Entourage on my MacBook.  This is supposed to be automatic, isn't it?

    Entourage will not sync with iCloud, not now, probably not ever, time to change.

    Check that you don't have more than one account in your contacts, such as 'iCloud' and 'On My Phone'.

  • Outlook and icloud contacts and mail sync OK but calendar will not.  Why?

    I have Outlook 2010 on a Win 7 PC.  iCloud syncs Mail and Contacts with my iP4 and Outlook without any problems but Outlook Calendar will not.  iCloud set up procedure worked fine with Contacts and Mail.  But when setup is run for Calendar, a message pop up says that iCloud Mail must be "enabled" in Outlook before Calendar can be synced.
    iCloud Mail has been setup on iP4 and in Outlook.  I can send and receive test messages to "me.com" from the iP but can't send test messages from the "me.com" account setup in Outlook.  When I try to send a test message from Outlook mail account setup a dialog box asks for my "me.com" password which I enter but then asks me again and again until I finally give up.  So, I think I've set it up but clearly, it's not been "enabled" to allow syncing with Calendar even though Contacts and Mail seems to work.  BTW, Outlook navigation pane (left side) shows an iCloud folder in both Contacts and Mail but NOT in Calendar.  Which shows, I think, that Calendar has indeed not been enabled.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks.

  • HT1386 Can you assist me with sync from my iphone to pc?  I want my data to merge, but contacts and calendar are  not updating

    Where are the settings to merge data (calendar and contacts) when syncing phone to pc? 

    Hello Mary,
    It is definitely inconvenient when your contacts are not syning over correctly.  If you are using iTunes to sync Outlook to your iPhone, I recommend the following article to troubleshoot the issue:

    Lord K.  Thank you. Yes I am within the 90 time period, however I travel Intertionally and I can not receive not make a call to Apple. I was just at the Genius Bar in Chicago and they said, don't worry about it.  It just floats out there, however, I can not recover my messages on a flash drive. I need to go back to my old computer which I don't have with me.  My messages were in folders for a lawsuit.  It is going to take an incredible amount of work for me to, you have no Idea.  We are talking thousands of pages!  I the defendent will have them during discovery so I am not so worried.  However, I can not bring them to him on a Flashdrive when I meet with him without an extraordinary amount of presssure on my part.  THis is not just some little email issue. This is suing EXPEDIA and Tripadviosr.com
