I'm experiencing major synchronisation issues on ICloud, especially for documents created on my Mac in pages, keynote and numbers. Contacts and agenda items work fine. I checked all my account settings.

I'm experiencing major synchronisation issues on ICloud, especially for documents created on my Mac in pages, keynote and numbers. Contacts and agenda items work fine. I checked all my account settings. But while I can upload documents from my MAC onto ICloud, they don't show on my IOS devices (whereas previously this worked without issues).

On this Mac I did move all the visible iCloud documents out of iCloud, into another folder, then disabled syncing, exactly as you suggested. But there were, apparently, documents remaining in my Mac's local iCloud store, "~/Library/Mobile Documents/" that I could not see (so could not remove). The Pages file "CSU-PD-UN1.pages" was one such document.
The act of disabling iCloud's document sync'ing, in System Prefs, just renames the local "iCloud" store to "~/Library/Mobile Documents/<appleid#>/" effectively shielding the it from the sync'ing mechanism. Looking at this renamed folder (the screenshot above) revealed that "CSU-PD-UN1.pages" (and other files) had not been removed; it would be reasonable to assume that one, or more, of these "undeletable" files were related to my original problem, and when I re-enabled doc sync'ing, those bad files would just clog up the works again.
So I deleted them with the Finder on both Macs (the other Mac had bad files too, but different ones), then re-enabling sync'ing on the two Macs and doc sync'ing between the Macs (and iCloud.com) appears to now work as intended.
Sadly, iOS devices (iPhone and two iPad) now do not sync at all. Newly created documents do not migrate to any other devices, and documents on other devices do to migrate to the iOS devices.
Your suggestions have certainly done some good, but something is now keeping my iOS devices out of the the iCloud doc sync'ing process. I suspect it's a similar problem as the Macs had ("invisible" files gumming up the works), so I'm going to apply some nasty tricks to explore the iOS devices file system and see if I can find them, and delete them by brue force.

Losing iCloud emails - when I receive emails into my iCloud accounts they disappear very quickly, either after one day or once I've opened one of them on either my iMac, laptop, iPhone or iPad. I've checked all my account settings and they seem fine

I have 5 email accounts, 2 iCloud based and 3 using another provider. When the iCloud mail arrives on any device and either it's opened or a day passes, they disappear...sometimes into Trash and sometimes who knows where. I've checked the settings on every device and they seem correct, and identical to my non-iCloud accounts. I had this problem once before and frankly don't recall how it was resolved, which obviously wasn't successful.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Al

Yes, post your settings here, if you really have verified the settings and they are correct there is nothng else to offer, so post them here and let others advise as to their 'correctness'

There are multiple reasons that lead to issue. You should read the troubleshooting guide to get the right solution to solve the issue: iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support

Why iCloud only allows store documents created by Pages, Numbers or Key Note ? How can I "iCloud" documents created with Word Mac or Excel mac??

iwork for ios accepts for upload and also happily opens all your Microsoft office files, from Office97 standard doc/xls/ppt to the 2011 versions of docx,xlsx,pptx and various other of these format extensions.
Notice : the upload feature in www.icloud.com is only active if you in fact own these apps on your iPhone/Pad/pod. it is not a feature of iWork for the Mac ( iwork09 ) which itself is not icloud capable at all.

HT2520 I have an old MacBook Pro running OS 10.7.5. I would like to sync up my contacts with my iPad. I have checked all the right boxes in iCloud.

I have a MacBook Pro running OS X 10.7.5. I would like to sync my contacts from my iPad with my MAC. I've checked all the appropriate boxes in iCloud on both devices. What am I not doing or doing wrong?

Bobby D,
Thanks for the help. I learned quite a bit from your answer. Turns out I was looking in Outlook for the MAC instead of Address Book on my MAC which already had all my contacts. Once I imported them to Outlook, problem solved. It will be interesting to see if when I add a new contact it updates Outlook.
Thanks again,

8.1 icloud drive for Document and Data is not working well

On my iPad Air 2 and iPhone 6 (both on ios 8.1), every other day my apps would stop syncing with icloud. I noticed this with a few apps such as 1Password and Drafts 4.
icloud for default calenders and reminders were still working during this down time, just the Document and Data not syncing with icloud.
Remedy action:
(1) I need to off icloud drive
(2) press on home bottom and On/off bottom simultaneously to re-start the device
(3) then switch on the icloud drive again to make the Document and Data sync with icloud again.
This is really irritating and how can I think of a PC-less future when icloud is not reliable?
I am supposed to gain synergy for using 2 ios devices but I am certainly not feeling it at the moment.
Please can Apple fix this soon?

Page and Numbers are having the same problem. It gets so irritating that I have turned off the icloud drive for both apps.

Issue with FCOST (no FCOST document created)

Hi All,
I have activated FCOST for Production Orders in the settings. A trigger point has been set for the last operation in the routing, which triggers the creation of a rework order when there is a rework qty.
I confirm the rework order with CO11n, but no FCOST document is being created. I am using the rework order just to register the labor hours for rework & no component is added.
May i know why the FCOST document is not being created?
Vivek

Dear,
FCOST stand for Failure Cost. In release 4.70 above, There is a new tcode FCOST for rework confirmation you can update rework quantity to next operation.so it can be confirmed together with yield operation
To Activate Failure Cost Processing for Production Orders
1. Start transaction FCOACTIV_SFC
2. Activate Failure Cost Processing for the required plants and order types.
3. Choose Save.
After activating this Failure cost, then every rework quantity that you confirmed in CO11N will be updated in FCOST. In FCOST, you can confirm all activity and material issues that relevant with rework processing.
Please refer this link also,

I recently bought 10gb of iCloud data for £10 totalling my date to 15gb but it's almost full and I need a new phone, is the only way to save all my 1300 pictures

Please may someone help me in regards to the above, I have a very old laptop and do not trust it for holding all my photos, is iCloud the best place to store them? & should I just bite the bullet and buy more data? New phone is needed soon, this one is 16gb I have just under 400 contacts & roughly 1450 photos & videos from the last 2 years. I don't really understand why if the phone is 16gb i only have 15gb on iCloud, I'm guessing that means I would only lose 1gb somewhere?
Sorry to sound like a total dummy but would really appreciate advice on this.
Many thanks

Import them from the camera roll to your computer and delete them off your device as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083. You can then put the photos in a folder and sync them back to your device by selecting it on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings. They will appear on you phone in the Photo Library album, which is not included in the iCloud backup (because they are already backed up on your computer), and thus won't take any of your iCloud storage.
Another approach of course would be to start backing up to your computer using iTunes instead of to iCloud.

Using icloud, why can't i share a document created on my mac, and while out of town, access the document on my macbook pro. icloud should do this.

I create a document at home on my mac.
while out of town on a trip and using icloud and my macbook pro, I should be able to access this document.
If not, what good is icloud.

'Documents in the Cloud' enables you to manually upload iWork '09 documents (only) to the iCloud webpage: from there is will automatically be downloaded to iOS5 devices, but you cannot re-download it to your Mac oir to another Mac until it's been edited on an iOS device, so it's not really suitable for what you want, and you cannot do it at all with other types of file.
You will need a third-party solution. SugarySync would be my recommendation - it can do what you want completely seamlessly - this page examines that and some other options:

E90 synchronisation issue

Hi all:
Just recently acquired an E90 from O2; replacing a crashed Xda Exec and I have to say that this is one occasion that I am grateful for the crash. The E90 leaves everything I've ever handled in the dust (a major concession as a one-time die-hard Psion user) but...
there's just one small problem:
I seem to be having difficulties getting the tasks to synchronise properly with my Outlook 2002 on the home Pc *and* the Outlook 2003 on my office PC.
Specifically, I have set PC Suite (latest version 85_14_1) to prefer the E90 when there are clashes between it and the PC because the E90 is where I keep the stuff updated in real time. However PC Suite or Outlook is not recognising cancelled, deleted or updated items on the E90 so I end up with a whole duplicate but out-of-date set of task data being put on the E90, and then echoed on the PC's outlook. Which, as you can imagine, makes it very difficult to keep a coherent record of what tasks have been fulfilled and which haven't.
Has anyone seen this before, and can anyone come up with any suggestions or known solutions?
Many thanks,
PHJD

Okay all is well!
I just noticed for the first time since the keypad failures began, that my camera shutter button was depressed at an odd angle and stuck in the "engaged" position.   It must have been like this for several days.
Once I wiggled it back to it's normal position, the external keys on the E90 returned to normal functionality!
This makes sense since for the first few minutes after a hard reset or re-flash, the keys would work fine, only to malfunction after a few minutes. It must be that when the camera shutter key is held down for too long without the camera app running, things can go screwy with the keypad.
The internal keypad was unaffected since all camera buttons are disabled when the E90's cover is opened!
To any other E90 owners:   Please keep an eye on the awful spongy little shutter key, especially if your external keypad starts acting wonky.
Thanks to everyone who attempted to help me with this!

Syncing iCloud with contacts and calendar in MS Outlook 2007, will get message that "the set of folders cannot be opened. The information store could not be opened."

I install the iCloud Control Panel and information is uploaded from my Outlook Contact folder to iCloud. ICloud folders are created and syncing process between my iPhone, iCloud, and Outlook works for a while (day or 2). Then, when I open Outlook after a day of 2, I get the above message that "The set of folders cannot be opened. The information store could not be opened." The only resolve that I have found is to uninstall the iCloud Control Panel, the reboot my Windows computer, then reinstall the iCloud Control Panel and resync contacts and calendar to icloud. This is getting to be very cumbersome to use this feature. What is the cause of the problem that it keeps on disconnecting to iCloud?

I have also fixed it by uninstalling and then reinstalling iCloud, but as you have experienced, the problem recurs without reason. Apple would/could not help as they say that the problem is with Microsoft's Outlook and that I should talk to them. Microsoft's techies won't help without me paying some £200 as I have a Professional - a student's - version of Office 2007. This is scandalous. It is obvious, from the many who have reported the same problem n this forum, that Microsoft should look into this urgently and create a fix

TS3991 i can go to icloud, but keynote, pages, and numbers are not there

I have an icloud account, but cannot access pages, keynote, or numbers.

I am having the same issue for browser based iCloud access. (Macbook, iPad and iPhone programs are fine). The new beta is awful via browser. In Chrome no files are available, and in Firefox all formatting is lost when copying and pasting into Word or some other program.
This is on a Vista Business machine. I have not tried the Safari browser, but will do so.

How to use iCloud for documents

This is what Apple should tell you, but won't.
iCloud automatically keeps your documents up to date across all your devices. (Important exceptions apply, additional requirements sold separately)
iCloud is already seamlessly integrated with the Apple iWork apps for your iOS devices — Pages, Keynote, and Numbers. And we’ve given developers the tools to make their apps work with iCloud, too. So you can do things like paint a masterpiece, edit stock lists, and more — and have it all with you on all your devices, including your Mac or PC.
This is blatantly misleading. Read on.
iCloud makes it easy to move Pages, Keynote, and Numbers documents between your computer and your iOS devices. Just sign in to icloud.com/iwork in any modern web browser, and all your iWork for iOS documents will be there — complete with your most recent edits.
Unless the most recent edits were done on your personal computer. Then you have just downloaded an out of date version unless you first uploaded the version from your computer the last time you worked on it.
Click a document to download it in iWork ’09, Microsoft Office, or PDF format. You can also drag and drop any iWork ’09 or Microsoft Office document from your computer into one of the iWork apps (SOLD SEPARATELY) on icloud.com, and it automatically appears on all your iOS devices (note: this does not include your personal computer), ready for you to review, edit, or present.

Thanks Bob, that was my intent but I could find a forum for every Apple product and software imaginable...except iCloud. I'll repost it there.
The point is, my post is correct. Apple intentionally makes the highlight of of their pitch "iCloud automatically keeps your documents up to date across all your devices." Which is not true. Key words are, "automatic" and "all devices". My computer is not a device then.
Most of the text of my post is from Apple's website about iCloud. The important points of how to make it actually work are added by me gleaned from various sources.
For a company that prides itself on stuff that "just works", this doesn't and to make it worse, they fail to explain exactly how to make it work. And don't even get me started on the multiple Apple ID debacle that Apple forced upon all former MobileMe users just to further complicate the issue.
Thanks for the heads up about the proper forum.

REMSH unix command issues when adding rule for port 514

Has anyone experienced any issues with Unix systems when adding rules to WAAS for port 514? This is the port RCOPY uses and is not handled by WAAS by default. We created a rule for port 514 but when we implement any type of optimization (even TFO Only) we start having problems with REMSH. This is used in one of our production scripts that normally take 10 minutes to run. When we apply the rule for port 514 the time goes as high as 45 minutes.
We wrote a test script that uses just the REMSH command and with out the 514 rule works fine but with the 514 rule goes down the tubes.
Just to add a little more information, I do not see an entry under Monitor/ Connection Statistics with the servers in question when the test script is running so am not sure where to go from here. I know there is a way to do a TCP capture from the WAAS so figure that will be the next step to see what is causing the issues.
Thoughts?? Ideas?? Suggestions??

Well TAC came back with a answer. They found other people with the same issue.
"It was found that the applications always used the same source and destination TCP ports. WAAS has the first connection in a "WAIT-CLOSE" state so when the next packet comes in with the same ports it is dropped." , "A defect was opened for this issue, but has not been fixed yet."
He wanted us to do a packet capture but after finding these other tickets decided it would be a waste of time and only tell us we are having a similar issue as others.
Still waiting on a suggested work around or a patch, 4.15 is suppose to come out soon but haven't heard if it will fix the problem.
With the new information I don't think even putting 514 in pass-through will fix the issue.
I will let you know if I hear anything else.

ICloud/Outlook 2007 - Contacts & Calendar duplicate items.

I just recently updated my 3GS to the new OS and installed iCloud and I'm having a couple of issues.
1. My contact and calendar items have been duplicated. One set are listed under "My Calendars" and "My Contacts" and the other listed under "iCloud". The iCloud items sync wirelessly to my phone but the others need the phone to be connect by cable to sync. Aside from showing duplicate items on my phone, updating one set does not update the other.
Is there a way of having one set that sync wirelessly?
2. Calendar appointments listed under "iCloud" do not show up on my "To-Do Bar" applet in the mail screen or Outlook Today home screen.
How can I add these appointments to be visible on these screens?

By any chance are you running any Eset security software products (like Nod32) on that PC?
If so, there's a couple of alternatives.
Either try the procedure in Samoreen's post:
Re: iTunes 11.1.4.62 freezes while syncing with Outlook
Or, see if you can get hold of the Eset beta addressing the problem. As Samoreen notes in another post:
ESET have a workaround for this issue. They gave me access to a test version of the HIPS module and this fixed the problem. So I could re-enable the ESET_OPTIONS environment variable (although I still consider that it's a questionable idea). I upgraded to iTunes 11.1.5.5 and there was no problem.
So maybe you should get in touch with ESET support and request the new module ? Just send a message to Marcos in the ESET forum.
Re: Outlook 2013 Calendar Sync fails with new iTunes 11.1.5.5

I'm experiencing major synchronisation issues on ICloud, especially for documents created on my Mac in pages, keynote and numbers. Contacts and agenda items work fine. I checked all my account settings.
