Sorry for bashing on about this.  Just called Apple at 1.800.694.7466 and they told me the issue isn't with Mavericks per se but with iTunes 11.1.5. 
According the helpful woman I spoke to, no one at Apple knows why Apple decided to remove the ability to sync everything via USB.  She hears complaints about the change and knows it makes life difficult for folks. 
She also recommended, as you did, to contact www.apple.com/feedback about the change.  She says Apple does in fact have a group of people who do read the comments.
Whenever we talk about iTunes, it's assumed we are referring to the most current version, unless otherwise specified.

  • ITunes 11.1.4 (62) can't find the info button to set up sync for contacts, calendars, etc.

    I'm running iTunes 11.1.4 (62) and can't find the info button to set up sync for contacts, calendars, etc.

    That option has been removed with Mavericks. Syncing for calendars and contacts etc can only be done through iCloud:

  • MiQ Live, free OTA sync of contacts, calendar, etc

    There is a new app from Best Buy called MiQ Live
    www.miqlive.com/
    It will OTA sync your contacts, calendar, memos, tasks, AND media (pictures, vids) to their online site. It's ok if you trust them, and don't care that its Best Buy.
    The cool thing is -- it works. I just went on the PC, signed in to my account, and there were all my BlackBerry contacts, etc, AND I can even SMS from the Desktop App.
    I know if you are on a corporate BES this is not a big deal, but would be great for those on a personal BIS account who forget to do a wired sync, and your spouse/family and those who are not, for backups of data.

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen. Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try to sync the phone. Select any messages that appear in the Console window.

  • HELP!!!! iCloud synced all contacts calendar etc to both mine and my mothers account due to shared apple id HELP ME!!

    Okay so me and my mom have both downloaded the new iPhone update and now she has both her contacts and mine along with my calendar info and more. We both think its due to iCloud seeming as it didn't happen before we set it up. It is a nightmare and we just want it FIXED!. We have tried turning them off individually such as the contacts and the calendar yet they still were there! next we tried pressing the option that deleted them all from iCloud yet it just deleted all of out contacts so we turned it back on.
    What is going on??????
    I just want her contacts and calendar information GONE i really dont want me texting my nan thinking its my mom cus its written as mom mobile for both mine and hers AAAAH.

    You will have to have two separate Apple IDs to keep each of your sets of data separate.  I assume your Mom has her own computer and/or Apple ID so you can buy all that music without her knowing about it.  Just go to "settings" and then "Mail, contcts, and calendars".  Click on the icloud account and remove it from your device.  Then create a new icloud account using your Apple user name and ID (assuming it is seperate from your Mom's Apple user name and ID.  Your devise should begin syncing just your stuff to your device.  This is all predicated (again) on you and your Mommy having separate contact lists, email accounts, calendars, etc. - and MOST IMPORTANTLY - (did I already say this?) separate user names and Apple IDs.

  • Problems syncing Outlook contacts, calendar etc with IPHONE?

    After trying many options to fix this problem, the following was determined: If you were previously using another type of PDA/Smartphone with Outlook, your IPHONE may not properly sync your calendar, contacts, etc. For whatever reason, there is a conflict. SOLUTION: you need to save/export your contact/calendar info, then completely delete everything out of Outlook, then import back in. I wasnt able to do this w/2007, instead I exported and then made a new user profile (on my computer) and then dragged my saved files there. A minor pain in the a$$, but oh well. Thought I would pass this along, as it has to ******* someone else off as well! Good luck!

    I thought I read somewhere that you had to make sure there were no other PDA plugins in Options>Other>Advanced options>COM Add-ins. I think if there is another plugin for a device other than the iPhone, it has problems.

  • How can I sync my hotmail calendar account with my Mac iCal?

    Use iCloud. It's pretty easy once you figure out how. http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/

    My wife and I have separate have separate user accounts on our IMac.  We have separate Apple IDs for iTunes.  How can we use iCloud on our separate iPhones without sharing contacts, calendars, etc.

    If have separate iCloud accounts and want to keep your all your iCloud data separate, you can create separate user accounts for each of you, then sign into your individual iCloud account within your user account.
    If you want to just add both iCloud calendars on your Mac, you can sign into one iCloud account in System Preferences>iCloud, then add the second account in System Preferences>Internet Accounts>iCloud and only check Calendars with this second account.

  • I just upgraded to OS X 10.9 and just started using Outlook 2011. I can't sync my contacts or calendars. What's that about?

    I just upgraded to OS X 10.9 and just started using Outlook 2011. I can't sync my contacts or calendars. What's that about?

    Usually, where there are issues like that, it has to do with incompatible programs that may be loaded at system startup. So, in System Preferences, look at your login ID, and login items, and see if any programs listed there should be updated to run with Snow Leopard. While in System Preferences, look at the bottom of the window where you may find some programs listed also. Check them too.
    On your scanner, HP changed the way the scanners work under Snow Leopard. See this HP document: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01846935&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en &os=219&product=3739150&sw_lang=#N377 . Scroll down and click the scanning twistie.

  • My husband just got an iPad and we are wondering if he can sync the iPad to my lap top since I already have my iPhone synced to the laptop. We do not want to intermix the contacts, photos, etc from his iPad onto my iPhone or my iPhone info onto his iPad.

    You should be able to sync both to the same iTunes - I sync my iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch to the same computer. With the iPad connected and selected on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, you can use the tabs on the right-hand side to select which of your iTunes content to sync to it, so you can control which apps, photos, music etc are synced to it, and (via the Info tab) from which email account your contacts are synced from. Your computer's iTunes should remember your syncing preferences for each device.

  • OK, I THINK I HAVE FOUND THE FIX TO RESTORE CONTACTS, CALENDAR ETC

    Try this.......takes about 2 mins
    1. In itunes, top left click edit
    2. when it opens click preference
    3. when it opens click devices
    4. this shows all your back ups
    5. select the back up you want.
    6. close that window
    7. go to your iphone symbol on left and side and click to open
    8. click restore from back up and hopefully it will work.
    it says it will only work for contacts calendar etc and not change firmware.
    I cannot try this as my phone is newer than my back up....different serial etc.
    but if someone trys this and it works, please post that it works.

    I used this information and correctly restored my contacts to my iPhone.
    I was wondering if you happen to have any solutions, or what would you personally do in this situation:
    After installing new software onto my iPhone, applications are visible in iTunes, I have selected the Applications to sync, and after the sync is finished, the applications are not actually on the iPhone. I have tried several times, which resulted in losing all of my applications from phone. I have troubleshooted and the most useful solution was to do with the restrictions of the App Store, although this is not the case for my scenario.
    If you can find a possible solution could you please reply, or even if you cant assist, your help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks, Jo.

  • One Apple ID, two iPhones, same iCloud. How do I get rid of this without losing contacts, calendars etc?

    Hi there, hope someone can help.
    My mum upgraded about 18 months ago to an iphone 5 and to set it up we used my Apple ID as it was linked to my dads bank card. Had absolutely no problems with this, everything has maintained separate.
    However when my mum decided to update to ios7 (and as she is a novice has not backed her phone up since upgrading) At first it appeared that when she updated she had lost all her contacts, calendars etc but this was restored through iCloud.
    Now our phones appear completely linked. Eg when I receive a FaceTime call it goes to my mums phone as well.
    So is there any way of splitting our iCloud account without having to lose all our data? Especially as my mum has months worth of business meetings. To make it worse we currently live the other side of the country from each other, so going to the Genius Bar seems rather pointless!

  • Can I sync my iCal calendar to my husband's Google Calendar?

    I have read many discussions about this here and on other forums, but can't find an answer that works for what I'm trying to do.
    I use iMac, iPhone and iPad and keep track of our family's many activities on 3 iCal calendars (so I can use the different colors to track what each kid is doing.) I would like my husband to be able to view and modify these calendars.  He is on an Android device, uses Google Mail and a PC.
    I can easily sync his Google calendar to my iCal using advice from this Google forum (http://support.google.com/calendar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=151674).  I cannot figure out how he can sync my calendar to his Google calendar. 
    I have exported my iCal calendar and he has imported it into Google calendar just fine, but it is a static picture of the calendar when I export it so doesn't really help keep him up to date.
    I have shared the calendar per the link by Roger Wilmut1 (link: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a9479) on this  discussion: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4599543?start=0&tstart=0.  However iCloud is requesting an iCloud account from him to "Join" the calendar in Google calendars.
    If he set up an iCloud account (how??  I don't know) could he then access my iCal and sync it into his Google calendar?
    I'm trying to figure out if I should just give up on iCal and switch to a Google calendar.  It is working so nicely right now with my iPhone and iPad I would love to just keep using iCal if possible.  Most of the advice I have seen describes how I can link to his Google calendar (done, but not what I want to do) or says I should move to Google Calendar and stop using iCal. 
    Would appreciate any solutions you might offer.

    I've been using iCloud since it's inception as "mac.com" or whatever it was called. I've been able to Sync Outlook Exchange Calenars to my iMac, iPhone and iPad. However, I cannot get iCal (when viewed in iCloud) to display Exchange or Google Calender items.
    It's odd, all other Mac versions of iCal are happy e.g. iMac, MacBook Air, iPad Air, iPhone etc. But nothing when I login to icloud.com and look at the iCal there.

  • HT5824 iCloud and Windows 8.1:Outlook 365 can't sync my iCloud calendar

    I recently installed the windows 8.1 on my PC and now Outlook can't sync my iCloud calendar. The calendar works fine on my MacBook Pro and the iCloud app on my windows start page opens the iCloud calendar. It shows all appointments when I view the calendar in the ap but I use Outlook 365 for my business email and add appointments to the Outlook calendar. I see the iCloud calendar listed on the My Calendars panel, but now when I click on it I get the message: The set of folders cannot be opened. The information store could not be opened. It was working in the original Windows 8.

    Hello ronontheright,
    Do you mean that only the Exchange account in the desktop Mail app can’t sync?
    Please take a look at the following article.
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2012/11/26/supporting-windows-8-mail-in-your-organization.aspx
    Exchange ActiveSync can be used to sync data for email, contacts, and calendar. The Windows 8 Mail app supports Exchange ActiveSync.
    Please open the Windows Store app Calendar and People to check if they can normally sync.
    Please try to remove the account in Mail app and sign in again and check if the issue still exists.
    Best regards,
