    My iMac has not synced to icloud since november, how do i force a sync?

    Check that it is indeed running 10.7.2 and if it isn't use Software Update (from the Apple menu - the icon at top left) to bring it up to date.
    Did it originally sync and has stopped, or has it never synced?
    Did you create an Apple ID (if you didn't already have one) and then follow the procedure detailed here:

    My problem - when syncing and error messages  comes up:  iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone because an error occurred while margin data."  I've tried turning the phone off and back on, & tried both USB ports but get the same thing.  What can I do next since it doesn't give me even one clue as to what the error would be?

    Before I started to resync calendars one by one as suggested in the troubleshooting article, I remembered something that came up in a sync when I first attempted :  a 'which one do you want to keep' message about a repeating calendar event, which came up with three options, one from Calendar, and two from iCal on the phone.  I deleted that event, then went through the calendar resync one by one, and all seems OK now.
    In Music there is a way to find 'ghost' items that show up as grayed-out on the menus, so that you can try to reassociate or delete them.  It would be nice to have a similar way to work with Calendar!
    Thanks for pointing me to the right article.

  • ITunes could not sync contacts to the iPhone because an error occurred

    When I connect my iPhone to my iMac (OSX version 10.6.6), and open iTunes and select "sync" - everything syncs (my Apps, Music, Movies, TV Shows, Podcasts, books, Photos and Calendars). However, I get an error message popping up saying: "iTunes could not sync contacts to the iPhone because an error occurred while merging data".
    I have unchecked the contacts button in iTunes and then sync works fine.
    I have deleted all my contact in my Address Book on my iMac and tried to sync. Again, same error message as above.
    I have not tried to restore the iPhone as I am worried to loose my contacts saved on my iPhone.
    Who know how to solve this problem? Thanks

    Hi Charlotte
    I had the same problem for one year now and it affected my contacts, then later my calendar.
    I followed the Apple troubleshooting guides and finally managed to make it work again.
    First try the following guide:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Troubleshooting contact and calendar syncing via USB on Window
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1692
    For me I noticed that after I updated ITunes to latest version (using the full uninstall from the last point of the guide above, section "Reinstall Apple Mobile Device Support and iTunes"), I could sync with another Windows user account (on another computer actually)
    Since I wanted my own account to sync again, I then used the advanced troubleshooting guide:
    Advanced troubleshooting for Sync Services on Windows with Microsoft Outlook 2003, Outlook 2007, or Outlook 2010
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2776
    In my case the point 4 in this guide helped, but since I had no MobileMe, I just killed the OS process SyncServer.exe, then renamed the SyncServices folder to SyncServices.old and restarted the PC.
    You should try all the steps in both guides in the order mentioned, to see which one can help, I don't advise you to start directly with a step in a guide
    Good luck

    Why can I invite guests on my iMac, but not on my iPad or iPhone?

    That did cross my mind earlier today and when checking iCloud found that it had an old ID. I logged out and then in again on my current ID. It still doesn't sync.

    try signing out of icloud and then back on, if your using icloud.
    Or better yet, put your wife new id on her icloud account.

    Also make sure you are using the same iCloud account on your PC and your iPhone.  Go to Settings/iCloud on your iPhone and check the account email address.  Then check the iCloud account on your PC.  If you have a Windows PC, click on the iCloud icon in your system tray to see what icloud email account you are logged into.
    I changed the email on my iPhone and. iPad, but forgot to change the email on my PC and my calendars wouldn't sync.  It finally dawned on me that I forgot to change the account on my PC.

  • Itunes 11.1.5 will not sync new apps with iPhone 5 iOS 7.0.6 and gives grayed out "install" no message?  How does one work around this?

    Itunes 11.1.5 (MacBook Pro,OS 10.6.8) will not sync new apps with iPhone 5 iOS 7.0.6 and gives grayed out "install" no message?  How does one work around this?

    Just reboot your laptop... While its rebooting try to reboot your phone also by holding the home and power buttonn for 10-15 seconds...When your phone is turned off try to connect it to iTunes and it will recognize your phone in recovery mode.
    If you have the .ipsw file for iOS 7.0.6 saved in your desktop then in itunes press shift and click on Restore.
    Select the ipsw file and let it restore.
    If you dont have it downloaded then simply click on restore.
    I hope it works
    Cheers !

  • "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone "ABC" because the iPhone disconnected"

    Hi.
    So, I have an iPhone 4 running iOS 4.3.5. I am syncing it using iTunes version 10.4.1 running on a MacBookPro running Mac OSX 10.7.1.
    When I do a sync it runs through the usual steps, including the step where it says it is syncing calendars, and each step appears to complete in the iTunes window. However, as it finishes, a warning message appears saying "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone "ABC" because the iPhone disconnected". Here's a screen grab of the error message:-
    Now, the phone has not physically disconnected. I'm a bit baffled by this. It is a new iPhone 4, but inital syncs were performed without any difficulty. I have tried inserting a TEST event, to make sure that there is in fact a difficulty with the sync, and I can confirm that the error is not a phantom; syncs are not taking place. In additon, I have tried (albeit not methodically) to vary the particular calendars that are to sync, and the sync settings around old events, but to no avail.
    Any suggestions for trouble shooting this would be gratefully received.
    Thanks.

    Seems a workaround solution is here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/9159203#9159203
    This seems to solve the problem but we'll wait and see...

  • Itunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone "TheButler's Phone" because the sync server failed to sync the iPhone, anyone?

    Hi
    This is the error message that I recieve when I try to sync:
    Itunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone "TheButler's Phone" because the sync server failed to sync the iPhone, anyone?
    Everything has worked perfectly for over 1 year, this is an all of a sudden event.

  • "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone "name" because the sync server failed to sync the iPhone".

    I get the message "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone "name" because the sync server failed to sync the iPhone" every time I sync the iPhone 3GS with iTunes by USB.  Can anyone help? Please !!!!

    I posted the following to "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone "xx" because the sync server failed to sync the iPhone. What does this mean??" at https://discussions.apple.com/message/15820680#15820680
    I haven't seen it mentioned but the secret is to
    Sync only selected calendars
    Select "Remove Calendars" from the popup window
    (This is ambigous: from where are the calendars removed?  From the device being synced to)
    Click apply.
    Oops!  My memory is already gone stale.  I think I left no calendars selected, then clicked apply.  Then I selected the calendars that I wanted, then clicked apply.
    In any case, I had a blank calendar on my iPad and then I had all the updated events that I wanted on my iPad.
    Thanks to all who provided some of the essential clues to resolving this problem.

  • Itunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone because the iPhone disconnected

    Just went to sync my iphone today and got this message:
    iTunes could not sync calendars to the iphone because the iphone disconnected.
    Any ideas what the problem might be.  Had not had this happen to me before.
    Can't be iCloud because the only thing I use that for is Find My Mac.
    Restarted iTunes as well - still get the warning notice.
    Any ideas?

    I have the same issue - it just started happening.  Any suggestions out there??

  • Sync Error Message: "iTunes could not sync contacts to the iPhone...."

    This just started today:
    "iTunes could not sync contacts to the iPhone "My Phone" because an error occured while merging data"
    Info:
    I'm running iTunes 9 and 4.0.1 on my iPhone which is a 3GS. They sync with Google Contacts. I did just install a group contact app called ABCLite (fyi, have no idea if this is related).
    I use my contacts a LOT on both the phone and the computer so I really need them to sync! Help!!!

    Hi,
    same here - or similar: Installed latest iOS4 and only group in my contacts comes up.
    Data do not seem to be lost (phew:-) because when I ring a number, the phone still displays who it is, so the data are there somewhere.
    Any help much appreciated.
