I'm struggling to sync mac mini to IPad(address book and calendar).

How do I sync my address book and calender between my macmini and IPad? MobileMe isnt alowing new subscribers and I dont think I need Icloud at this time. Thanks

When you connect your iPad to the Mac, on the device's Info tab in iTunes do you not get the option of where to sync your contacts and calendar from ?

Address book and calendar sync from Mac to Google

Hi,
I have a HTC Desire phone and wish to sync my Contacts and Calendar items to it via Google.
I have pulled my Address Book and Calendar from my old p1i phone on to my old Power Book and exported these. I have then imported these onto my Macbook Pro running Snow Leopard.
I now want to sync these up to a Google account.
In my address I have ny contacts and also my girlfriend's. I wish to sync only my Contacts up to Google. Is this possible?
I have tried configuring iCal to sync with Google via calDAV but I am not seeing my Calendar entries in Google (or a way of doing a manual sync from Mac -> Google)
Apologies if these questions have been asked and answered previuosly.

Can I sync Palm TI with native OS X.5 (Leopard) mail, address book, and calendar?

It's too late for me to return the Palm and I hope I have not wasted my money. Can I sync with the Mac mail, address book, and calendar? Or must I switch over and use the Palm desktop software? Thanks for any clues about how to work with my Mac and the Palm TI.

ICloud Address Book and Calendar not syncing. Missing and duplicate entries. Help.

I have duplicate entries in Address Book. I have missing entries on other devices. For calendar it just doesn't sync.
What I've done to try to fix it:
1) I signed out of all my devices from iCloud and MobileMe.
2) I then deleted all the the cache files in Library and any iCloud folders I could
3) I deleted all the address book and calendar entries on each device.
4) Went back and deleted anything in Library and caches.
5) I looked at iClould.com and confirmed they had entries in Address Book and Calendar.
6) Signed back into iCloud on each device.
7) All the devices then began to populate.
Trouble began:
1) Some Address Book entries are missing on devices.
2) iClould has multiple entries for the very missing contacts! All cutting off the notes field at different places!
3) It won't sync the missing contacts present on iCloud but not the device.
Help.

Solved it myself. What I did:
1) I have four Lion OS and two iOS devices.
2) I kept one computer with the complete address book I wanted to start with but disconnecting it from iCloud's Contact sync via Apple Menu > System Preferences > iCloud uncheck Contact Sync
3) Logged into iCloud.com and deleted all the contacts and groups manually ( many keyboard shortcuts worked )
4) On the main computer, using textedit, I replaced semicolons I was using to delimit items in the notes field with backslashes.
5) Once I confirmed all the other computers and devices had no entries in Address Book, on the main computer I turned back on iCloud Contact syncing. It worked. Correct count of entries and no more breaking notes at the semicolons!
6) Immediately all the other iCloud computers and devices updated to the correct notes! Finally.

Syncing Mac mini with Ipad

I'm struggling with syncing my Macmini (calender,notes,addressbook) with my IPad. MobileMe isn't accepting new members. Please help. I entered my addressbook all wekend and I'm stuck.
Many Thanks

It means it will erase everything. You can only sync with one iTunes library at a time. The Mac Mini is a new computer and it has a new iTunes library on it as far as your iPad is concerned.
If you copied the iTunes library onto the new Mac you are OK with the music, but you still need to make the Mini your new iTunes syncing library. You have to transfer all purchases into iTunes, backup your iPad, restore from your backup and sync all media content back onto the iPad.
This should help.

Iphone no sync with itunes 7.6 & address book or calendar

iphone 1.1.3 will not sync with itunes 7.6 and address book, or calendar.
iphone will not sync to any of the mac I have, it will start to sync when I choose address, calendar, etc, and quit in a few seconds, with no sync.
I tried all the recommendations, and as well re-installing clean itunes. Some folks attributed this to the latest Mac OS 10.5.2 upgrade. In any case, anybody could help please, the frustration level is all time high.
Thanks, Gabriel

yes it is, if you go to www.iphoneatlas.com/ among other search on google, you will find that there are a lot of folks with the same problem, if you go to macnn web site, as well there are comments.
I restored the iphone, re-installed itunes more than a couple of times, use two different macs, different cables. Follow the recommendations on this site and others. Nothing seems to work. Therefore I assumed that there is something on the upgrade 10.5.2 that screw up the sync. That is the feeling of the rest of the folks that have the same issue and comments on macnn and iphoneatlas.
Thanks for responding, Gabriel

Sync mac mini with iPad mini

Hello,
i have my Mac Mini running Maverick and my ipad mini with the latest IOS7 version, i can't sync my ibook files. can somebody tell me how to do it?
i am trying to transfer from my ipad mini to my mac mini.

Yes, this issue has appeared on some very long discussions, but I'll give you the short answer here. Books purchased in the iBooks store should be syncing across devices just fine. The issue is with PDFs and ePub books obtained elsewhere.
Even though books are no longer stored in iTunes once you use iBooks on your Mac, you still need to use iTunes to sync them. The iTunes book section is now gone, but when you have your phone or iPad plugged in or connected over WiFi with iTunes look at the tabs for the iOS device. You will see a Books tab that has syncing options for all or selected books. Once you select what you want to sync and do a sync, your books should be on your iPad Mini.
Oops, I see you were actually trying to do the opposite of what I did, so this may be a little backwards, but I think the syncing will still occur. Also, if you're referring to purchased content from Apple, maybe you just need to turn on some of the iCloud syncing options on your minis.
Good luck! (I just learned this today.)

Syncing Google Gmail Contacts with Address Book and iPhone Contacts

Can anyone recommend a good way to sync Google Gmail Contacts with the Address Book on the Mac and with Contacts on the iPhone?
I tried using ABGMerge, but could not get it to work so and am looking for other options. Thanks.

The Plaxo 3 non-pubic beta application currently supports only Mozilla and FireFox 1.5 and Internet Explorer 6. Safari support, and support for updated OS X thrid-party browsers, has not yet been released. To say that there are some anomalies and visual artifacts with Safari 2, would be an understatement. But, then, I often find this to be the case with beta—particularly, pre-public beta, software.
The current release—build 356—supports these 'sync points:'
• Mac OS X through a System Preferences pane
• AOL and AIM
• LinkedIn
• mobile access
• MSN and WIndows Live
• Outlook
• Outlook Express
• Windows Mail
• Yahoo
It does not yet support Google. Or, not yet reliably or completely. The little 'hippo' that pops up periodically in the beta says, "Google Calendar Sync has been temporarily disabled. We are working diligently to resolve the problem. Sorry for the inconvenience."
The verdict at the moment: contact synchronization performs as it always has with Plaxo. Calendar synchronization is clearly not yet ready for prime-time, even to the Plaxo 3 web interface itself.

What exactly is the process that syncs address book and calendar to google?

I have been syncing with google somewhat successfully for the past 6 months or so, but I am still confused about exactly how it's working.
I have my calendar set up as a caldav account, and it appears to be working fine. I would like to know if calendar still syncs even if the calendar application is not open. I tend to leave it open, but I don't know if that is necessary. Also, I don't understand if calendar has anything to do with isync. I am referring to the little isync icon in the menu bar. Does a caldav account have anything to do with that, or does it sync on its own?
The address book is a little more confusing. From what I have figured out, it only syncs manually by clicking the little isync icon in the menu bar. Is that correct? Is there no way for it to sync automatically like I think caldav accounts do in calendar? Also, I wonder about the application here too. Does the application have to be open for address book to sync with google?
Thanks, I hope someone can explain this a little better!
PS- I am actually running 10.6.8, but don't see an option for that in my product details.

I could sit here and do a bunch of tests, I suppose. I'd have to disable my internet connection before opening the ical and address book applications to see if it syncs without being open. Because I assume it could just refresh upon launching the application. I wish someone could just gice me a clue here. Anyone?

My Address Book and Calendar won't sync

I have configured in my iPhone settings to sync my mail, contacts and Calendars with my Google account, and it works when I input new data on my computer, but when I enter new contacts or dates on my iPhone, it doesn't translate to my computer. How can I get it to sync "both ways"? (BTW, iTunes recognizes the iPhone, as does iPhoto, so that's not the problem).

Check the default account in Settings.

Problems sync'ing some information between Address Book and iPod (5th)

Please give me some cues...
I sync my ipod address book (with iTunes and Address Book) but not every contact get sync'ed! Sometimes I change a contact picture or add a phone number and the updated version doesn't seem to show up on my ipod... It happens with several contacts on different occasions... Even if i delete those contact and create new ones from scratch.
Also, when I add a second phone number and set this number as "Home" (like for a Summer house), this number replace the first (home) number on my iPod. When I set this new number to be "Other", it just doesn't show up on my iPod. The only way I can make it visible on my iPod is to set it as "Work" (if I don't have a phone number set up as "Work" for that contact already). Pretty annoying...
Finally, some phone number are set up as xxx-xxx-xxxx (my default address format in AB) and some shows up as (xxx) xxx-xxxx even if everything looks fine in AB (phone numbers' label, contact's picture, address format...)
clueless...
maybe isync (or hotsync) has something to do with it (since I had a Palm w/Palm Desktop and HotSync before...)

Address book and calendar not syncing correctly. Events are being duplicated in the calendar, or disappearing totally, and the addresses are not updating.

I've been having problems with my calendar recently. Events I've listed are disappearing, without my having deleted them. And when I update my addresses in my computer, my iphone doesn't update when it is synced. Any ideas what could be causing this? I have an iphone 4, and have updated to ios5. The problem with my calendar started before changing to ios5, I'm not sure about the problem with my addresses, I've just realized it.

Okay--I'll try this, but before I do, can you answer another question?
When I deselect the box next to contacts on system preferences > iCloud, I get a scary air message that says, "Do you want to keep a copy of your iCloud contacts on this Mac? If you don't keep a copy, iCloud contacts will be removed from this mac but will still be available on other devices using iCloud."
My mac has all of my contacts, but there are some that are not on my iPhone (Chistmas card list). Will I lose the contacts that are not backed up on my iPhone?
Should I select "Delete from Mac" or "Keep Contacts"?
Similar air message with calendars, so I assume whatever I do with contacts will be the same as calendars.
Thank you so much for your help--this has been so confusing for me!! I"m sure this has been discussed over and over and I looked through the messages to find a solution, but just got more confused.

Sync Address Book and Calendars

I have an iPhone, a PC at work that uses an Exchange server, a PC at home that uses Outlook to POP mail from my personal email account, and an iMac at home that also POPs mail from my personal account.
My iPhone is set up to get mail from both my work (Exchange) account and my personal account.
I have a separate contacts folder at work (Exchange) with personal contacts, and a business contacts folder. I have a single Calendar at work that contains both personal and business information.
My iPhone has both contact folders and the calendar. I would like to be able to sync what is in my iPhone to my work, my personal PC and my iMac. If I make a change at any location, I would like the change to propagate to all other locations. I would also like to be able to see my calendar from all locations.
I started a trial membership to MobileMe yesterday. It created 2 calendar folders on my personal Outlook (Home and Work), but they are both empty. It has not synchronized my contacts. It has also created Home and Work calendars on both my iPhone and in iCal, but again, both are empty.
I did a sync from iTunes in my iMac and my personal PC. I did not do anything with my work PC. My iPhone is setup for Exchange ActiveSync.
Am I missing something, or does the system not have the capability of syncing everything as I had hoped?

Pick one of the two accounts and sign both of them into it?
