Ical iphone & mac book pro issues

Hi there,
I'm running a iPhone 4S with iOS 7.1.2 and Macbook Pro with Mavericks. I recently had to do a full restore on my phone and since then I'm having trouble syncing events between the two devices on iCal. I moved time zones recently too so that might be part of the issue. I changed the time zone to the correct one in iCloud and on my Macbook itself as well on the iPhone though for the last two I'm not sure if there are special iCal settings relating to that. I kept noticing a one hour difference between events on my phone and Mac so I experimented a bit with the time zone support category in iCal advanced settings on my Mac and on my iPhone but now it seems like if I post a new event on my Mac it simply appears as a blank new event on my phone and at the wrong time. If I post an event on my iPhone it will appear at the correct time on my Mac. I'm also noticing some of my events on my Mac stating the time zone while others are not. I scanned the forums but didn't find a solution yet so I hope these details help and that it's a quick fix. I'm not sure if I have to connect my iPhone to my Mac via USB and change some setting in iTunes. Help would be much appreciated! Thanks

I have no idea but for some reason it now seems to be fine. I didn't change anything at all so I'm not sure about the solution or what the problem was in the first place.

  • Mac book pro issue?

    I've had issues with my Mac book pro that is about 3-4 years old. When I have ap age open and am scrolling down it wants to all on it's own go to the previous page when i have never clicked the back button. The other thing is I may have a couple of pages open and all of a suden one page will have this colored light thta is a round circle almost showing like it is loading the page and it sometimes freezes up. I always making sure my computer is up to date as far as software updates go but still has been acting up. I did once see on this computer it has like a virus blocker which is in the off position but I thought that apples can't get virus correct?? I'm just lost I don't know it can or does it have a virus or what.
    Can someone please tell me what can I do to get these little weird qurks to stop happening??
    Thanks
    Chris

    if i go to the top left hand corner and click the apple and go to system Preference ten I click on security it will say firewall on or off so I assume this is what protects the computer??
    I know it's werid as ****, when i have a window up and I am scrolling up and down the page with the bar to the right of the page all of a sudden it is like some clicked the back button to go to the prvious page and I have never even clicked it.
    The other thing is like when I click safari to load the page my curser instead of having the little arrow it will be a round abject with different colors likes it is trying to load the page but the page is wanting to freeze up and the curser doesn't move as freely as it normally should. Seems like this is getting worse seeing this. I don't know if this is do to the internet connection maybe??
    Thanks

  • Mac Book Pro Issues

    w,Hey there!
    This is pretty Random, Im hoping someone can help me.
    My mac is abouuutttt 3 years old... its had a good long life and up until 2 weeks ago was working perfectly. 
    My charger died about 2 weeks ago, I ordered one online and it arrived all good. Ever since I've plugged it back in my computer has sooooooo many issues that its never had before. First thing is its now saying the battery needs replacing. Now, i totally get that its old, i used to work in an apple store and have always been really really good about not leaving it plugged in etc so it doesn't die, before my charger broke it was getting at least 4-6 hours charge still. Now its barely making 2, and once i get to about 30% it just turns off. Not runs out of battery the computer just turns itself off. Because i can then go and turn it back on without plugging it in.
    The second issue is that the date keeps going back to january 1994. It has NEVER done this before charger died, not once. Now every single time my computer turns back on i have to  try and change the date and time back to today, Which is all well and good but System Preferences doesn't seem to want to open any more either... now i figure this is something to do with the date/time being all screwy but NO IDEA how to get it to stop doing this.
    The third problem is the mouse pad thingie (can't remember what its called... Trackpad?) doesn't seem to click either.
    As i said i get that its an old computer, But all ways been well looked after as i used to work for mac and as i said the day the charger stopped working is when i had all these issues. Can someone please help? Thank you!

    Sooo If i just get the battery replaced then all the other issues will stop. Including the time date thing?

  • Can,t create new events in ical on Mac book Pro.

    This morning when I try to add a new event a pop up appears "This calendar was created by Mail. You can’t add events to a Mail calendar. Mail calendars only contain to do items created in Mail." Ical worked fine yesterday. I have a mobile me acc and can edit the online calendar but not the one on my laptop.
    Thanks

    Called Apple fast track support and problem is resolved. User error, for some reason I had selected the wrong calendar - after selecting the proper calendar on the left sidebar I could create events. Apparently at some time I created a 'todo' mailbox. It had nothing in it and I ended up deleting it so it doesn't get selected again in error.
    Took 15 minutes to connect with an ICAL specialist. Once connected received excellent support.

  • HT5225 I have an imac 24 , imac 27, mac book pro, airbook and Iphone 3G.  I have switched to icloud from mobile and all the computers synch with each other but data entered from my iphone in ical won't sync to the other computers.

    Is there a setting on the iphone that will allow ical entries on the iphone to sink to my other computers
    Thank-you

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

  • Need major advice-Iphone,Ipad,Mac Book Pro syncing issues

    I just purchased Mac Book Pro this weekend and I also have Iphone 4S and Ipad 1..all now with latest software update.  I used a hard drive to save my music and photos from my old PC and imported them into Itunes on new Mac....when I sync Iphone it will not transfer any photos or apps that I originally had on my old computer or any new apps that I have downloaded since the purchase of the new computer. Itunes begins to sync, goes through some of the processes then cancels the sync.  This is very disappointing being that I bought the Mac Book to have simple and seamless syncing between IPhone, Ipad 1 and Mac. 
    In addition, when I downloaded the new software to my Ipad 1, it did a hard reset and I lost every app on my Ipad.  Someone please help me get these devices working in harmony!!!!!!  I'm desperate and pulling my hair out......Thank you in advance!!!

  • Mac Book Pro won't sync iCal with iCloud

    Hi
    I'm running a Mac Book Pro (10.7.1) an iPad 2 and an iPhone 4. Both of the latter devices have been updated to IOS 5.
    I'm a long standing MobileMe customer and I've been switching to iCloud today.
    Generally things have gone smoothly. iCal was transferred from MbMe to iCloud without a hitch. Both the iPad and the iPhone were easy enough to switch across. And having done some tests now whenever the iCloud calendar  is updated it appears on the portables and vica-versa.
    However - iCal on the MBP isn't happy.
    When I open it a pop-up appears saying "iCal can't log in to your "*****@me.com" account because your password may be incorrect". There's a button that then invites me to go to "MobileMe prefs" to address the issue. I do this. And several times I've signed out and signed back in using the correct user name and password.
    The Account Status says " Your MobileMe account has been upgraded to iCloud". So, it seems that the password isn't an issue. However, iCal keeps telling me it is.
    (Also, have just tried creating a new address on the MBP and another on the iPad - iCloud instantly reflected the latter but not the former. ie. it seems that the MBP isn't syncing to the cloud at all).
    Any help/suggestions gratefully received.
    (also, for your ref. I run Little Snitch - but I'm pretty sure it's not blocking anything)
    Thanks
    Ewan

    Little Snitch...  that is most likely the problem.
    Nothing positive... LS has caused many a Mac user headaches.

  • IPad 3 and iPhone 4S won't synch with iTunes on Mac book pro. Error message says I need to have version 10.6.3 pr later for iTunes.

    iPad 3 and iPhone 4S won't synch with iTunes on Mac book pro. Error message says I need to have version 10.6.3 or later  for iTunes.  Mac iOS version 10.5.8 and iTunes on Mac is 10.6.1. iPad and iPhone version is 6.0(10A403). When I check for updates on the Mac book pro it says software versions are up to date.
    When I check for iTunes version  10.6.3 it looks like it is for snow leopard operating system which I am not on. How to I get my devices to sync with computer. Everything worked prior to iOS 6 upgrade on remote devices.

    I'm having the same problem.
    iPhone 4s won't sync with my Macbook Pro.
    I iust updated the iPhone to iOS6 (thought it wasn't syncing before the update either).
    Macbook Pro running Mac OS 10.5.8
    iTunes 10.6.3 (i.e. latest update - which hasn't had an issues apart from syncing).
    I tried 3 different USB sync cables. Still not syncing.
    Do I really have to update my Mac OS to 10.6.8 in order to sync my phone ? I thought as long as you have iTunes 10.6.3 you're ok...
    Is there a way to update to Mac OS 10.6.8 (or later) without wiping the hard drive and doing a new install?..
    thanks

  • HT1338 Itunes, Mac Book, Mac Book Pro, Ipad, iCloud, iphones,i touch, iPods purchased. My accounts have been compromised. My documents taken photos, Conatacts, Business accounts and files. They have used my ID and know my ss # everything. I need to talk t

    I need to talk to someone about changing all of my accounts. A iCloud account was opened not by me and I lost 17 years of contacts. I have slowly gotten them back. My files from my Mac Book were taken and are gone. It has cost me about 60,000 dollars in business since November which has effected my staff as well. Many personal ireplacable memories of my childrens Photos were taken, Business, designs and accounting and personalFiles you name it gone or corrupted. My main PC including 4 external hard drives, then the Mac Book, My Iphones,itouch. Ipad were next and then my Mac Book pro. This is very humbling and heart felt. those who work with me have very strong beliefs, it was an internal doing or I should say someone gained or was allowed access to my home and equipment. I travel and tour and am gone quite a bit. This was and is the most difficult thing that has happened to me in a long time. In truth business and work will and can be rectified that not the point. It's how and what has been done which is the most damaging very personal almost vidictive but I will stop there. I feel so violated and saddened at the same time. I am hoping to contact someone through Apple or even an outside source to see if my files can be recouped and how to go about doing these changes all at once without all of the emails back and forth to approve changes in accounts what a pain. I want to change all accounts associated with apple. Apple ID and Pass words, I tunes ID and Pass word you name it.When I leave for work now days I have to take all of my equipment or lock things in the safe. I have an alarm system that is very good in additons to, animals still with the animals inside the motion detectors are off and in reality the damage has been done . I now this sounds crazy but I have proof of my back up files not all of them plus you can see in my documents all of my business accounts which are in orderof complition and dates are empty. My email accounts were also hacked and thru that individuals were able to change at will. When you have over 20 years of an association and relationships they know everything about someone. I do not want to press charges but I am to that point I need to bring in someone to investigate and I really do not know whom to even call. I have won awards for my work and my designs and information being taken has hurt more than words can express. I am currently out of town doing this late at night. I have changed my banking you name it. I need to have access to my computers to work but the stress of these constant changes and invasion of privacy are beyond expression. I plug in any of my usb drives and they are empty or my computers do not recognize them. I plug in my usb connector from my HP 8100  Printer with Blue tooth capabilities and it pops up and an external E drive for downloading just like an external drive. My printer acepts every imaginable portable disk on the market . Many of my usb drives are gone or have been corrupted. I have this darn air drop that goes on all the time. My computers I turn off and then they are on when I get up. I can go on and on. I live in the bay area and I am asking for help in trying to stop all of this. I will call Apple next but I wanted to put it out on this forum with the hopes of some response or input. I have all of my new and very minimal recovered information now on a web-based server which I know is safe the pass words and set up were done very discreetly (one can only hope). I apologize in advance for laying this out there like this. I am just so frustrated and because of the POSSIBLE implications makes it even harder In which I truly want to be proven wrong. I have never written or thought that I would be doing this as it is. If anything I hope some good comes out of this for someone. Bluetooth is a powerful tool this much I know now. Wow this is just simply amazing. There are 14 products I have purchased. I have been a windows person for years because of my work somethings are prapriatary to that OS but I love the Apple products. I am despratley trying not to nor will I throw in the towel. I know its a great product and its not the product. I just want to have the best opotunity to recover and have control over my designs and pretty much my privacy and peace of mind not too much to ask..:-) Oh! do not get me wrong I am willing to pay for services thats not the issue here. Once again thank you for at least espressing my frustrations.

  • How to make my iphone sync with my Mac Book Pro without icloud

    My iphone no longer syncs with Mac Book Pro now that I have downloaded Maverick.  It just flicks open synching and flicks on to say "waiting for change to be applied" before it closes it's attempt at syncing and does nothing.  I have read elsewhere it is because Maverick wants us to use icloud but I don't want to sync my contacts and calendar on icloud as it is not secure enough with the confidential information I have on my calendar and in contacts.   I just want to make sure that my contacts are backed up on my computer as well as my calendar saying the same thing on my iphone as well as my Mac.   My Mac calendar is the most up to date version at the moment and when I go out to meetings I want my iphone to be up to date too. All help appreciated in solving this syncing problem. Thanks

    Plug yr iPhone to your compu in the old fashioned way with cable.
    Just to cover yourself...select the iPhone in Devices of left pane of iTunes window, then on main pane, select radio button Back up to Computer. Right click on the iPhone in devices, do a backup. It shld then be on your compu'.
    Then, back in main windo, select Info 'tab' from top of the right pane, and tick the Sync iCal events.
    I'm sure this will help.
    If it all goes pear-shape, u have the backup to restore the pre-sync device.

  • HT4061 iTunes will not open when my iPhone 4S is attached to my Mac Book Pro. iTunes will start up but as soon as my iPhone appears in the list of devices the program then quits and displays the message 'iTune Quit Unexpectedly'? Can anybody help?

    The Problem/s
    1. I am unable to sync my iPhone 4S with my Mac Book Pro, either by cable, wifi or bluetooth
    2. iTunes will initiall open and briefly identifies the iPhone in the Device section in iTunes.
    3. When iTunes starts to read the iPhone (displaying the spinning wheel), it immediately then quits and
    4. Opens a 'dialogue box' which displays the message "iTunes Quit Unexpectedly"
    5 The dialoge box offers the following button options to:-
    'Show Details'
    The 'Show Details' button will open and display a list of the 'Problem Details and System Configeration'. To the average user the information is useless, as one doesn't know what to look for to solve the problem. This is a long and detailed report (too long to include in this message), which includes information such as:-
    Crashed Thread:  20
    Exception Type:  EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV)
    Exception Codes: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS at 0x00000000000006f0
    'OK'
    The 'Ok' button simply quits and closes the dialogue box
    'Reopen'
    The 'Reopen' button will again reopen iTunes, briefly showing that it is trying to read the iPhone in the Devices section, but then returns again to display the same dialogue box.
    Other Information
    1. iTunes will still start normally once the USB cable is removed from the Mac book Pro, but crashes again once the USB cable is reattached to the computer
    Any advice or help offered would be greatly appreciated.
    Sincerely
    Rob

    How do set up your hotmail account on a mac book pro properly? I have it set up so I get mail but on my hotmail account I have lot of separate folders to save messages in(for example :- bank, skyp, work, Facebook, apple, ect...). They don't show up on my mac. I also have an iPhone and iPad, there is no issue here when I set those up. I automatically got my separate folders. Anybody have any idea or encountered the same problem?

    Hotmail on a Mac is POP3 only, you will only get the basic folders (inbox, sent, trash etc) and it will not sync with other devices.
    And now I post this I see other replies, so this is redundant. !!

  • My iPhone (5s/8.1.2) and iPad (orig mini/8.1.2) cannot see my Mac Book Pro (Yosemite) and vice versa in Airdrop

    My iPhone 5s (current iOS 8.1.2) and iPad mini (ditto) can see each other in airdrop, but neither one can see my Mac Book Pro (early 2011/Yosemite).  And the Mac Book Pro cannot see either iOS device. 
    I have read everything I can find about this and it seems like these iOS devices SHOULD be able to exchange with my Mac Book Pro using Airdrop, but I am unable to make it happen. 
    Can anyone enlighten me on what might be going on here?

    I have been just wandering for quite a night over the web to find out a solution to this particular issue (no mid-2012 mac visible in Airdrop on iOS).
    So, I seem to have found it and must share it:
    the airdrop started working bidirectional for me after I had changed the following settings to "off" (or whatever it may be called in English version): system settings - network - bluetooth PAN - IPv4 configuration -> off.
    If it works for you, please share further, because the problem seems very common with no solution readily offered.

  • Jumpy video playback from iPhone 5 to Mac Book Pro

    Hi
    I recently took some footage on my iPhone 5 and downloaded onto my 2007 Mac Book Pro via iPhoto. Unfortunately, mid download iPhoto became unresponsive and I had to Force quit.
    After restarting iPhoto I saw that the videos had not been downloaded so I started the process again. It was a seemingly successful download so I deleted the videos from my iPhone.
    Upon playback all the video's are jumpy. Other older video's all ready in the library are fine.
    It seems all the info is in there as each time I play a video back I see different parts of the video ie: the jumps are not all in the same place each time.
    Is it a playback 780 v 1080 issue?
    Can anyone help?
