I can't sync my photos on my iPhone 5 or IPad 2 from my MacBook Pro. It tells me my phone/pad cannot be read from or written to. Any ideas?

No it't okay I finally figured it out!
I went to 'devices and printers'
it listed all the devices plugged in and on 'ipod' and 'iphone' there was a yellow '!' I clicked it and it troubleshooted the issue and now everything is working yay!

  • Can I sync PDF files between my iPhone and iPad?

    Can I sync PDF files between my iPhone and iPad?

    Yes, and we will have integration with our Mobile Readers as well. We've already submitted to Apple for review, and will be live once they complete their review and approval.
    With this, we'll allow you to share files pretty easily between Desktop, Tablet and Phone across all OSes...and when you make changes, we'll automatically bring them to and from your phone/tablet! Pretty cool.

  • I seem to have at least two, and maybe four, iCloud accounts, across my iPhone, my iPad and my MacBook Pro. Can I combine them into one iCloud account?

    I seem to have at least two, and maybe four, iCloud accounts, across my iPhone, my iPad and my MacBook Pro. Can I combine them into one iCloud account? I have been able to log into what appears to be three of the four iCloud accounts I have. Two of them seem to be remarkably similar, and one appears to be only for my MacBook.I think I know which one my iPhone is backing up to, as I successfully restored from a back-up last week. The fourth iCloud account I can't access via password or security questions. Any advice would be much appreciated.
    Thanks.
    Cheers,

    You cannot merge accounts.

  • HT1386 How do I switch users on wifi sync for example my Mac has two users one apples MacBook pro the other is my name I want to switch from apples MacBook pro to my name how is this done?

    How do I switch users on wifi sync for example my Mac has two users one apples MacBook pro the other is my name I want to switch from apples MacBook pro to my name how is this done?

    Try connecting the iPad to the computer that you do not want to WiFi sync with and uncheck the WiFi sync option in iTunes. Then click on Apply. Reboot the iPad and see if that does the trick.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • I can not sync my photos to my iPhone

    im having trouble syncing my photos to my iphone with iphotos

    Before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
    - Did it ever work properly?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
    With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
    Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that any helper is simply guessing. With information, s/he may be able to get your issue resolved sooner.

  • Can I host my music or photos on a server and still sync with my iPhone and iPad through my MacBook Pro?

    My new MacBook Pro does not have enough room on the Flash drive to hold all my photos and music.  So I want to save them to a server, yet still be able to sync with iTunes on my MacBook Pro.  Any ideas?

    Nevermind.  I see you can change the location of your music files.  I'll try that.

  • I have a desktop pc with iTunes. I just purchased a mac air book. Can I sync all of my devices, iPhone, iPod, iPad, to both computers or do I have to pick one. I would like to have iTunes on my mac, but I'm afraid I will run out of hard drive space.

    I have a desktop pc with itunes. I just purchased a Mac Air book.  Can I sync my devices, iphone, ipod, ipad, to both computers. Or do I have to pick one? I would like to have itunes on my mac, but i am afraid I will run out of hard disk space. Do I need to set up a seperate account on my Mac so I can load some music on it if I plan to keep my devices synced to my PC?  Would it be possible to sync only my Iphone to my Mac?

    To get that much storage, you need to look to professional online services.  Pro-level hosting accounts may offer you that much (well, many will offer as much storage as you are prepared to pay for), or Amazon professional cloud services.  You could also store the files on a home machine and pay for a professional hosting service so you could stream them over your own account (assuming your ISP connection and agreement allows for the bandwidth used).  You would still need to deal with the issue of finding an app for the iPad that supported avi streaming.

  • How can I sync my Itunes between my iphone and ipad with the cloud?

    How can I sync my Iphone 4 and my Ipad 2 using the Cloud?

    Make sure they are both using iOS 5 or higher, then go to Settings>iCloud, sign in with your Apple ID to create the account and turn on the data you want to sync with iCloud.

  • Can you transfer old photos on your iPhone to iPad using iCloud?

    I know that once you take a photo on your iPhone it will be pushed into the photo stream which can be accessed on your iPad and computer; however, Is there anyway you can wirelessly transfer old photos to your iPad that you took on your iPhone before iCloud came out?

    Not without restoring your iPad to the entire backup of your phone, or using special 3rd party software (see http://www.imore.com/how-manually-transfer-app-data-your-iphone-5).  And even then the app data may not transfer if the iPad and iPhone versions are not compatible (you would have to contact the developer and ask).

  • Can't sync music, TV shows to iPhone or iPad

    Have the latest version of Mountain Lion, 10.8.2. Latest version of iOS on iPhone 5 and iPad mini 6.0.2. Latest version of iTunes 11.0.1, on an Imac 21.5 (brand new) 2.9 GHz Intel Core i5, 16 Gigs of Ram, Fusion 1 TB drive.
    When I try to sync either device my music, movies and  TV show as Zero items. If I sync either device it appears, until I get a solution, that I will lose
    on my devices all my music movies and TV shows.
    Any thoughts on this greatly appreciated.

    When you connect the Ipod, go to the "TV Shows" tab. It is defaulted to not sync TV shows (and movies in that tab). Click sync all and then make sure you click apply. Try to re-sync after that. You may have already done that, but I thought trying the basics might help!

  • Ical won't sync with iPhone 5, iPad 2 or macbook pro.

    I have updated my devices and now my ical won't sync with iPad 2, macbook pro or iPhone 5.  How can I refresh them so they will all sync together.  I just noticed that when I added an event on my ipad2 it did not show up on my macbook pro.  I turned iCloud off then on again.  I also turned calendars on and off again.  Then the event disappeared from my iPad also.  So now it is only on my iPhone 5.  How do I sync ical with all my devices?

    Anna,
    I have tried everything suggested by the apple support webpage.
    It would be helpful to know if you used this support article: iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Calendar.

  • How can I sync my downloaded cds to iphone and ipad?

    I used to be able to transfer all my music from computer to ipad, but much of it is gone, mostly the downloaded cds, but also much of my purchased tunes. I could not get it to iphone either now. I have all the proper things checked, but it does not work

    I've done that a hundred times and it used to bring all my music over, but it does not do it anymore, only a few come over. If the newer was in the directions I would have found it that way

  • How do I sync the contents of my iPhone 4s with my new Macbook Pro?

    My iPhone has content on it that is not backed up up anywhere else because my old computer died.
    Is there anyway to move the content from my phone onto my new laptop?

    excellent point about time machine, using that monkey now. Too bad it's not a real time machine though, drats.
    Also I'm new to this forum, but thought there would be some apple people here. I'll have to put my question in with them, I'm sure it will be high priority
    RE: One Way Sync I'm well aware of this (and I have other complaints about the accessability of those media's as well) My response/question though is specifically about audio, and even more specifically something I did not mention is that I would need to wipe my phone in order to re-sync. Is there no way to sync with a new library and keep the contents of your phone on your phone, allowing a user access to read and write, or in the case of audio files, just write or trash/remove?
    This draw back just makes me want to unlock the phone so I can hack in, I just don't have the time or desire to use my time in that way. It was already hard enough to get the SDK working.
    Thanks for the response though.
