How can I sync the contacts in my phone with those on my MacBook Pro? I already have an iCloud account, and everything else (calendars,music, etc.I is already synched) but the contacts won't.

Ok.
Open System Preferences, Apple Logo icon in the menu bar and then System Preferences or the Sys Pref iocon in the Dock and go to the Internet Accounts area and look at your iCloud account. It should list what is and isn't synced by a checkmark next to each item.
Also in the Contacts app click on Contacts in the menu bar and select Preferences then accounts and make sure your iCloud account is listed. You can also do that from the Internet Accounts area in System Preferences.

Are you syncing your Mac Address Book contacts over the air with your iCloud account which is selected with your iCloud account settings on your Mac? You need to do that first followed by logging in with your iCloud account via webmail access using a browser to confirm your Mac Address Book contacts are available in your iCloud online address book.

I had the same problem. Here is what worked for me. Open the mail app and delete your exchange account (Settings > Delete Account). Then re-add your Exchange account. After this my Exchange contacts showed up again.

HT1338 Apple sent me a disc for Snow Leapord so I could upgrade to Lion, but the disc won't install. Anyone else have that problem? How do i solve? Can't move to I cloud until it is done.

Hold c and reboot off the 10.6 disk, run the installer.
If the machine your upgrading is the 2006, I'd highly advise you stay on 10.6.8
It's a 5 year old machine, you're in the last life stages of that machine and 10.7 will push it right over the edge.
10.6 is a GOOD upgrade for that machine, faster than 10.7 or 10.5.
And 10.6 will run your 10.5 software, 10.7 will not.
Get iCloud with a new 10.8 machine coming out after this summer, seriously.
Your machine is too old to bother with Lion.
Or else you can learn yourself and use this link to get back to Snow, good luck finding your 10.5 programs.

I just upgraded to FF 4.o, had 3.X running just fine, the upgrade went fine, but now it won't open Firefox at all.

I just upgraded to FF 4.o, had 3.X running just fine, Windows 7, the upgrade went fine, but now it won't open Firefox at all, it just loads and sits there and stops, but my task manager shows FF running in the background, I have tried reinstalling twice, no change, what is causing this?
Processes is the only place it shows Firefox running, programs won't show it in Task Manager.

Reinstall 10.6 again, but this time hold c boot off the 10.6 and erase the ENTIRE internal drive.
You do this by selecting the drive makers name and size on the left hand side, not the slightly indented partition underneath it.
If you erase and install 10.6 only into a parittion, say Macintosh HD, the you still have the hidden Lion Recovery Partition on the drive and it appears you already have 10.7
In the MAS, hold option and click Purchases to redownload Lion
FYI, you don't need to install 10.6 to reinstall 10.7, 10.7 can be reinstalled via the Lion Recovery, Command r boot.

Google calender and google contacts won't sync AGA...

I am getting very tired of Nokia now!
Actually I've had it with Nokia!
One last Change,
My wife and I have now received Nokia phones number 4 and 5 from the care center.
I now have a E7-00 with a poorly responsive touchscreen,
my wife now has a N8, wich just again is different than her previous.
I'm still haven't been able to find out whether the touchscreen is broken or...
Namely because I can hardly use the phone, again google calender and google contacts won't sync.
Got it to work last time around, but things (espacialy with Nokia) change.
Can somebody, Please, give me the page with the CORRECT instructrons? for the e7-00 and the N8?
I am very tired of clicking pages wich do not contain the anwsers.
Meanwhile, my friends and colleagues laugh at me, with their smasung's, HTC 's, LG 's, and iPhone's.
Which all sync (nearly) hassle-free with all they want.
Help

Hi Gucky66,
Thanks for your post and welcome to the forum.
Please reset and update the phone to fix any software issues you're experiencing on both your E7 and N8.
Connect your phone to Nokia Suite and create a back up via Tools > Back up.
Now disconnect the phone from Nokia Suite and enter *#7370# and default security code 12345 into your phone. Once the phone has rebooted, please reconnect with Nokia Suite and click on the green arrow icon where you will be able to update the phone to it's latest software version. If no update is listed, please reinstall the current software. This option is displayed in blue.
When the updated has completed, please restore the back up via Restore > Back up.
You should now have a fully working phone. If you're still experiencing difficulties with your Email account, please delete the account and reconfigure, you can do this via Menu > Mail > Select the email account > Long press > Delete mailbox.
If the above doesn't work, please contact your local Care line where they will be able to look at your previous repairs and look for a solution.
Please get back to me if you manage to resolve the issue, otherwise I can provide further support.

What's the proper protocol for a reset on my ipod touch 4g? iOS 6 has totally jacked it up and it will no longer do anything but crash, and won't sync with itunes wirelessly or by cable.

What's the proper protocol for a reset on my ipod touch 4g? iOS 6 has totally jacked it up and it will no longer do anything but crash, and won't sync with itunes wirelessly or by cable.
It's a 64G ipod touch and was fine till Apple told me to upgrade to ios 6. Now most of my apps crash, my music won't play and I just get a white screen when I hit Music.
When I try to sync to itunes it acts like it's going to sync and appears to recognize the ipod, but it's grayed out and has an update circle by it that spins for a while until itunes eventually freezes alltogether. Is there a way to go back to ios 5 after a erase and reset?

Calendar & contacts won't sync

I have a centro and have my personal mail with hotmail. I tried to also have my work email through outlook downloaded as well. After messing around with the outlook sync I was able to sync to outlook, but only my calendar and my contacts, no email sync'd. Which I didn't want to merge, I wanted to keep my palm desktop (personal) and outlook (business) seperate. I then deleted the outlook email and now my calendar and contacts won't sync with either outlook or palm desktop. All I want is to be able to sync with my palm desktop again, that's it.
Thanks

I have moved my music to my new mac air but now it won't sync with my ipod or my iphone 4s

I have transferred mymusic to my new mac air from an acer laptop via an external hard drive and it's all there on the mac but now itunes won't sync with my ipod touch or my iphone 4s.
With the ipod it says 'iTunes could not connect to this iPhone. Could not connect to the device " It also doesn't show up at all in the devices section.
With the iphone it says there isn't enough space to sync even though I have experimented and unticked various things including photos which takes up a lot of space. It seems like it wants to sync with the empty space on the iphone (very small!) and not with the whole thing. I have tried various things suggested on this forum but have had no luck.

Contacts won't sync since upgrading to OS 10.5.5

I went about 6 months without using my Palm Z22 (got busy!). In the meantime, I upgraded by Operating System to 10.5.5. Don't know whether it's related, but now the personal contacts I entered into my Palm Desktop won't sync to my Z22. When I sync, it's attempting to sync with a huge database (called Now Contact) that I use in my homebased business. Before it can finish, it gives me an error and says Syncing wasn't completed. I don't want it to sync with Now Contact. I want it to do like before - just sync with the personal contacts in the Addresses section of my Palm Desktop. Anyone know what I can try? How do I turn that off?
Post relates to: Palm Z22

Here are copies of the "syncs" I tried today. I realized after my original post that it also won't sync my Palm Desktop Date Book. It's trying to read Now Up-to-Date from my desktop which is not a calendar application that I even use. Thanks!

Mac calendar and contacts won't sync with iPhone 5 since upgrading to Mavericks.

Please,please, help,
My mac calendar and contacts (and who know what else) won't sync with my iPhone 5 since updating to Mavericks. I have lost new medical appointments on my mac which never synced to my iPhone. I am completely frazzled as I am a very busy mum (who isn't!) and the call centre is closed! A am a bit of a technophobe but have discovered the "info" tab that appears when I connect my iphone to my mac to sync has disappeared with Mavericks. I hope someone out there can help me.

Yes, you can reinstall your system from the backup you made before installing Mavericks. See this link
